My newest music obsession

So I've liked Franz Ferdinand for quite a while now. But I haven't really taken the time out to actually explore all of their music like I have with Muse and The Beatles. So the other day I did just that and I managed to find my new favourite song: Ulysses. 
 
I'm not entirely sure what it is that I like about this song, but I do know that I do like it, and I like it a lot. Everytime I sit down to listen to music I start with that song. And whenever it's finished I always go "Just one more time" 
 
There are also small parts in this song that I think that the singer sounds like Matt Bellamy from muse.. Anyone listening to both of them or just muse would probably notice it too.

How to train your dragon:

The scene where Hiccup begins to discover how dragons actually work. The clip wasn't able to be embeded so here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsUoHIRFnKY

Brave:
 
Tangled:
 I don't know, sorry xD

Actually only one of these movies made me cry and it was Brave and the scene I'm about to show. Although ROTG has one brilliant and sad scene, it didn't give me enough time to actually be sad about it so I didn't cry. And I didn't care about Tangled enough to cry when Flynn almost died. 
I don't know why I didn't cry to HTTYD but I didn't.

I think I've used this clip for something else before, but it does show both of my favourite skills. Jack's Ice Powers and Pitch's Nightmare sand.
 
Jack has the ability to bend ice and snow to his will and can therefore do tons of cool stuff, like this here. He can also fly, I mean cmon, it's cool.
 
Pitch can create weapons out of sand, like sandy can, but he is also a shadow creature who can dissapear and appear in shadows and create shadowdances to mess with someone's head. Also epic!

Of course it's Jack, who else? I just told you that he was my favourite character so of course he's also gonna be my favourite male character, since he's male (duh). Geez... 
 
Thought I'd throw in a pic of him in his human form, since we've already had him.. so.
You know what, here, have another one.

Merida DunBroch
 
Even though she is kind of selfish throughout most of the movie I still have reasons to love her
 
  • She's fiesty, has a very wild spirit and seems to be a lot of fun to be around
  • She is herself and in that way she's kind of tomboyish BUT it's not played out to be one of those "I have to prove myself because I'm a girl and everyone thinks I'm weak". It's not like that, and that's what's so great about her being the way she is
  • She's the only disney princess to stay single (she no need no man)
  • She feels like a real teenager. She fights with her mum and really mostly only thinks about her own needs, and she wants to be able to do as she wishes. 
  • She has great hair, I want it (I also have a weakness for redheaded girls)

It's a tie between..
 
Pitch Black (Kozmotis Pitchiner-ROTG)
 
 
He's sassy, he's has nightMARES (They're horses, hehe), his rivalry with Sandy is awesome, he has a sad backstory (even though it's sadly enough not brought up in the film) and he's voiced by Jude Law. C'mon, this guy is awesome! 
 
Mother Gothel - Tangled
 
I might not have liked Tangled, but I did like the villain. 
She's also sassy and actually quite interesting as a villain considering she's very motherly. I don't like the theory that she was throughoutly only interested in Rapunzels magical hair, that's not interesting.. I wanted her to actually have grown attached to Rapunzel but letting her want to forever staying young take over.. that's far more interesting. 
 
She also reminds me of my ex best friends mother, a lot! 
 
I also think that her and Pitch would make a great team.

Rise of the Guardians
 

Just look at this film in blue-ray and you'll understand why it's as brilliant and beautiful as it is. 
Look at that! 
And if you ever see a close up on Jack's hands you can see veins and everything and they put in details like making eyes look puffy and tired and making nails broken and disgusting on a guy that died drowning and making sand look like actual sand. They just put in so much detail in this animation it's amazing!

It's hard to choose in ROTG since I love them all but I decided to go with the tiny little badass fellow called Sandy!
 
 
 
Ruffnut and Tuffnut (Because I think Toothless is a main character), King Fergus and Flynn Rider. Yep, they're all great

Gonna take one from each film..
 
Rise Of The Guardians
North: We are very busy bringing joy to children. We don't have time....for children.
 
How To Train Your Dragon
Snotlout: [on top of the Green Death, whacking its eyes with his hammer] I can't miss! What's wrong, buddy? Got somethin' in your eye?
 
Brave
King Fergus:  [shrilly voice] I don't want to get married, I want to stay single and let my hair flow in the wind as I ride through the glen firing arrows into the sunset.
 
 
Tangled

Mother Gothel: Look in that mirror. I see a strong, confident, beautiful young lady.

[Rapunzel smiles]

Mother Gothel: Oh look, you're here too.

(out of the four)
Jackson Overland Frost
 
So why Jack out of the four? (The four being, Jack, Hiccup, Merida and Rapunzel)
 
Well, He's the one I relate to the most. Mostly attitude-wise than situation-wise. After all, I didn't die and come back as a winter spirit, I also didn't risk my life saving my younger sister and I wasn't alone for 300 years but beside that.. I am a person who rather stay positive than dwell on my problems, I like to make fun of my friends and I can be a bit competetive. I'm also very protective and can put on the older sibling role quite easily, even if I haven't been an older sibling until 2010, I have been the voice of reason between friends many times though. 
He's also very adorable and probably a guy I would marry if I met someone like him. Yep.

RotBTD Challenge: Part 1/30

This is a challenge from a crossover fandom called Rise of the brave tangled dragons which is basically a crossover between ROTG, How to train your dragon, Brave and Tangled and although I don't like Tangled, I'm in this fandom. 
 
This challenge is also a 30 days one, but since I suck at those I decided I'll make as many as I can when I have the time for them. And well, I have time now. So starting with part 1.
 
F A V O U R I T E  M O V I E
 
I've already done a review of this film so you've already heard why I like it so much. 
 
  • I like the fact that there's a main character-death as well made as the one in this
  • I like the fact that there's so much more to explore in this world, how things work and where the others came from and so on (I got the books as a graduation present so it's time to do some reading!)
  • I like the feeling it gave me, it didn't feel like the normal kind of pacing
  • I LOVE the music
  • I like the fact that ALL characters are lovable, and they have so much chemistry with each other
  • I like the fact that even though they hinted it, there's wasn't any relationships in it
  • I like the twist they did on all the legends, like making Santa a russian warrior, brilliant! 
  • Also: Jack Frost ffs!
