You cannot break those cuffs!

geebsThings that bugged me in the past 24 hours:
1) The recessional hymn at yesterday's mass. A song sung in church should not have "Yee haw!" in it. Now, I'm not saying its blasphemous or heretical or anything, its just so hickish. I mean, we're not at a hoe-down or a hootnanny or whatever!
2) People not saving their applause until the end. The trailer for the Wolverine movie was leaked, and its just someone filming from the crowd. So you have people fanboyishly wooing and hooing at every moment they think is kewl. You're enthusiastic, I get it, but your enthusiasm is killing my enjoyment. It really bugs the hell out of me when people do it at an actual movie. Its like, I don't want to be missing stuff cause some idiot thinks some part is so great. stv('How rude!')
Anyways, the trailer features Wolverine and Sabretooth of course (I still don't know how I feel about Cotton Weary as Sabretooth), but there's a flash of Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool sans mask (isn't Deadpool supposed to be horribly disfigured?!) and a few flashes of Riggins as Gambit tossing cards and swinging around his staff.
3) Sokka on Avatar. Well, he's gotten less annoying as I get further into the series, but the first two eps he was bugging the hell out of me. But yeah, started watching that. Its a pretty cool series, its got a good blend of action, drama, and comedy. There are definitely a lot of funny moments and the dialogue is pretty clever. I thought there were four seasons, and I knew the third box set was coming out in September, so I was worried I'd have to wait longer than that to finish the series, but there's only the three. So that's good.
Speaking of Avatar, if I knew this before, I'd forgotten it, but I didn't realize Katara was voiced by Egg. And ha, I think I knew Iroh was voice by Mako and forgot, but when I started the series from the beginning and he first spoke, I thought it was a guy who sounded like Mako, not actually Mako.
Some TV commentary:
I was fiddling with the computer while watching In Plain Sight, and did I miss a tag where they said the part with Mary and the cop was still the past? I mean, the beginning is always how the person got into Witness Protection, but I usually assume the tag saying how long ago it was only applies to that part. So I thought the part in Chicago 16 months ago only applied to that part, and that Mary interacting with him was the present (or was there a tag that said it was still the past?)
So when she was moving into the house and her mom showed up, I was thinking they were showing the eps out of order or something. That was hilarious though, there was a commercial a long time ago that showed the scene where Mary learns of Raph's infidelity. But since the commercial took the scene out of context, it made you think both the mother and sister slept with him. So this whole time, I thought the sister and him were gonna sleep together (who wouldn't want to do Brandi, she's a piece of ass!) and that the mother would too. And I was wracking my brain as to how that would happen, because I could believe him doing the sister after having some big fight with Mary, but his scenes with the mom are non-existent. And they were trying to portray him as a nice guy, so I didn't think he was some sex fiend trying to through the whole family.
But no one slept with him, and the commercial left out the part where the mom only said "You slept with him too?!" because she knew about the physical trainer, but then when Mary was being accusatory, she thought Brandi slept with him too.
On Monk, how old was the young chess prodigy supposed to be? It seemed like he was post high school, but then they had Julie flirting with him. I guess she's old enough to drive, but she still looks kinda young. And doesn't the fact that Monk broke in possibly screw up the case? I guess the chess guy didn't saying anything about it but I would think now that he's caught, he could talk of the misdeeds of the police and people working for them. Plus, what would he have done if his wife didn't hide the bottle back before succumbing to the poison?!
Though I do find it silly that castling made Monk think of the whole switching tombstones thing.
