I THINK I FIGURED IT OUT.



It was bugging me since the first viewing of the movie; what the news clips were of while Tony was in Fury's facility. And I'm willing to bet that they're from The Hulk. The reporter rang just a little bit familiar in my head for the two seconds we see her (backwards, through the translucent screen). Also, it would fit the timeline right; because at the end of The Hulk Tony comes in and says something along the lines of "We're putting together a team."

HAH I FEEL SO CLEVER.

Everyone else probably already figured that out, but whatever. xDDDD; I need to obtain a copy of Incredible Hulk to verify for certain though.



Yes, we went and saw Iron Man 2 again. I was up until way past my bedtime again too and then had weird dreams involving music, CCR and Iron Man. I DON'T KNOW OKAY. It was totally worth it, at any case.

Must cleeeean. Clean like the wind, the sun is shining and revealing all the dirt and crap all over my apartment. Then I can vege. I caught up on all my shows, Hakuouki (seriously wtf); Durarara, and Bleach. I honestly have no idea what the hell is going on Bleach anymore. At all. And yet I still watch it in the hopes I'll get to see something about the handful of characters I DO care about.

Also I was having a discussion with several of my friends trying to determine if we could think of any long-running shounen fighting shows that starred a female character. Not necessarily as the strongest fighter, but that the female character was the main character and is the one on the quest. I brought it up because in Fairy Tail Lucy is the main character, even if the strongest fighters are guys, and I found that interesting because it is a pretty much standard shounen fighting show. She also DOES fight, despite not being as powerful as the guys and has been rescued a few times. Several times by another, more powerful female character.

I defined long-running as "more than two seasons" so any 13-episode one-off series and ovas are excluded, because when I think of long-running shounen I think of Bleach, and Naruto, and One-Piece. We thought of Soul Eater; which I haven't seen, and possibly Yawara, which is totally old-school and I don't know if it's shounen in the vein that I'm thinking. I would not include Utena in this because that is very clearly shoujo despite the fighting.

I'm about 13 episodes in to Fairy Tail and enjoying it. It's not revolutionary at all, it's pretty cliche shounen but I am rather impressed that the lead character is female and not the thief/healer/rogue/token chick type character the lead usually picks up a few episodes in to be the love interest. So yeah, there's that.

ANYWAY. Things to do today! WOO.
