At least there's sand in this one
I guess I need a Generation Kill icon?
Thanks todira , I've finally seen all the eps and about half the commentaries/special features for GK. DH and I watched together, and we both liked the documentary and technical aspects of the series. Since this is journalism-based, the story telling isn't what we normally get. Wright was doing something very specific - documenting what he saw, and he admits that in a few places he wants to highlight some of the things he saw (good and bad), but he's not trying to romanticize the event.
I really like the three-dimensional aspect of many of the characters. The series does a way better job of fleshing out multiple characters than anything else I've seen lately. Unfortunately, it seems some of the real-life people weren't 3D enough to flesh out in any meaningful way. I was totally blown away by how much Skarsgard physically resembles Colbert, and how well he portrayed his quiet confidence/competence.
So it's interesting to me that there are such strong pairings. The only one that really jumped out at me was Evan/Ray, LOL. Seriously, I think Evan has a big fat mancrush on Ray. I think it has to do with Ray's incredible command of language ::snort::
And okay, you can make a case for Rudy/Pappy, but that may be another one-sided thing. Rudy did seem to have a hard time keeping his hands off Pappy.
Brad/Nate is pretty to contemplate, and I've thoroughly enjoyed exploring that concept, but I'm not sure I would have gone there on my own. It makes sense, in that they're pretty much the only two that are pretty sane throughout, so like finds like and then things snowball from there, right?
But I guess I'm truly hooked, because last night I dreamt I was giving Brad a blowjob. In loving, technicolor detail, complete with deep throating, and moaning and, and, and. He's not my usual dreamboat, but he IS a long, tall drink, and I do love still waters, so maybe I shouldn't be surprised. At least he doesnt seem as young as Nate.
