They're Like: Cylons but without Tricia Helfer.

Pixar is awfully good at that.

I'm also partial to Ghostfire's excellent (and non-spoilery) reaction comic to ME3: [ghostfire.deviantart.com]

Everyone does. I remember hearing a quote from Trudie herself at one point that she doesn't know a Gordon Sumner. When his nickname was applied, IT STUCK. ;)

Your Shep looks disconcertingly like mine. ;)

Ooh. Well. Color ME intrigued.

maniacal laugh, maniacal laugh.....

My two Sheps are a Sentinel and an Engineer, both female. I feel so... so... anti-mainstream.

It's less manipulated than you might think. Take a listen (if you don't mind the spoilers, because it's a BIG one) to this extended, unused version of Thane's last scene in Mass Effect 3. Kolyat's lines are fully processed, because they're the same as in the final cut; Thane's aren't. Still sounds pretty much…

We call 'em the flyover states for a reason.

The first time I saw Matt Rhodes art anywhere was fanart for the Myst series. Still tickles the hell out of me that this is where he's ended up, because his stuff is fantastic.

Two Sentinels? Your friends have stellar taste in Shepards. ;)

I've got my issues with the ending (mostly that there just wasn't enough of it to make itself make much sense, let alone emotionally resolve a few things I really wanted resolved), but thanks - this was a nice perspective on the whole thing.

*giggles helplessly* Oh dear. That's.... kind of awesome. DEAL WITH IT!

It's the sameness that gets to me, and the suspicion that the oft-repeated "she's strong and sexy and kicks ass!" trope is more about what men want to see than anything else. Just once I'd like to see a character described as confident in her sexuality who's, y'know, tall, skinny, and flat-chested, instead of "oh hai…

"she's really bears"?

I just did a half-asleep skim down the headlines and somehow transmuted "How to synthesize Sudafed from crystal meth" into "How to synthesize Seinfeld from crystal meth."

Cannot tell you how much I want to see this movie. *watches clip five times*

....cannot...unsee.....

Things look pretty simply
