Zankoku...
sorry, right as i get ready to post Cruel Angel's Thesis Bleed started playing so i sorta had to make that the title. That GAINAX just creates some memorable stuff, though now i have "i hear you everywhere" from Chobits and that very well could have been the title as well, really this ole MP3 player is full of titles just waiting to be used.

but yeah, the Gundam rant yesterday went a little long, i actually got a request or two saying they wish i had gone into meh Doctor Who rant, which is very abnormal being as most often people wish my posts were SHORTER as opposed to longer, but really nothing i can do about posts in the path, i just figure after i get it to the length i normal post at i post it, even if i have more to say.

originally the long posts came from me wanting to say a lot and just writing posts that long naturally, and i imagined my posts would vary in length depending on how much i have to say. but i'm a creature of habit so soon the length of those posts became the norm and now if i can't get it to that length i just pad my post will filler because thats just standard for me, just as i aim for at least 20 page chapters, which started off with just write the chapter to the length it needs to be, i suppose i just like conformity in my writing.

but based upon request i'll get on to the BBC ranting. see as you may have noted yesterday i said i was excited about the awesomeness of two shows, Gundam: which i ranted the hell out of yesterday, and Doctor Who. well i ranted so much about Gundam that i left out the Doctor, so here's my Doctor who rant, though it never was to compare to Gundam and after a day is probably a lot less passionate.

Pretty much as far as The Doctor goes i'm just happy to see Captain Jack Harkness come back, being as he is probably the best live action character in all of history, hell i cried when he got killed in season 1, luckily Rose [a.k.a. the NOT token black and utterly boring companion to The Doctor]brought him back to life and now he is immortal, much to his dismay. and adding to my joy is Torchwood, which stars ole Jack [well not OLD Jack, but i'll get into THAT later] so i get my fill of the most awesome omni-sexual time agent of all time.

see with Jack's immortality he has basically become the british version of Kenny from South park, he just get killed repeatedly only to come back. though to me he's more like a video game character, kill him and he just respawns a few seconds later. well in the the last three episodes of the third season Jack does some of his best work, from glomping the TARDIS to stripping down so he'd look sexy while he handled readioactive material. and once The Master becomes all evil and Time-Lord-y again there is even more Jack goodness, such as when the three of them break into his ship The Master says "There they are, The Doctor, The girly and the freak, though i'm not sure which of the last two is which." then having Jack chained up in the basement, which i'm sure is a regular part of his weekend schedule, it was just funny to see him attempt to break out when The Doctor plans a coup, and when it fails seeing him standing unarmed in a hallway before a firing squad reminiscent of the situation he faced the first time he "died", saying "Not again." before they shoot the crap out of him. also fun was The Master shooting him and saying "the best part is he can't die, so i can keep doing that as much as i want."

but the best part of Jack is at the end when he decides to go back and work at Torchwood, he asks The Doctor about aging, being as he can't die but he is aging, even if it is extremely slowly. he then drops a bombshell, he says " its just my vanity i guess, i used to be a poster boy as a kid, growing up in the Boeshane Peninsula... you know i was the first one to sign up for the time agents, "The Face of Boe" they used to call me..." that literally made me as comically amazed as the characters in the series. but it makes sense, The Face of Boe referred to The Doctor as an old friend, as well did he know the Doctor was not Alone, because he had met The Master. they said the face was billions of years old and that would make since for Jack who basically lived out his life starting in his late 20's in 1900 or so. he also had that same sense of humor he and The Doctor share, when The Doctor told him people sat he's that old Boe replies "No, we both no that's impossible." in a very teasing manner, hell even the waiting around on New New New New New New New New New New New New New New New York is like Jack, waiting around with his "Doctor Detector" [severed hand]and glomping the TARDIS, hell they might have just made a larger version of that hand jar to put Jack in, and i'm sure if he weren't confined to that jar he'd have glomped The Doctor.

well all i can say is after seeing Jack, age is not beauty!
