I finally get to submit these heeereee! SO HAPPY! I was waiting since the first day I joined FA to post these- and now I can!
I did these this year for Valentine's day- but was so busy I didn't get to finish them until the end of the Feb. But that doesn't mean they are any less adorable and horribly punny! XD
Probably my favorite Romance Movie story/trilogy ever- Underworld.
I don't care about how many people criticized the film, didn't think the werewolves "looked good" or whatever- these movies were VERY intelligent, demanded that the audience know some European History (specifically the Eastern European) as well as Greek mythology, and had so many well put together symbolic scenes that it was the kind of movie that made me yearn to do something like it.
It was also the first time where the female heroine was ACTUALLY a heroine- not the kind of “hero” who is the main character but still cares about her shoes and pretty in pink sparkles. Selene acts and thinks like a mercenary woman- and even her romance with Michael isn’t over-done in the “girly” sense. Michael is the kind of man I'm very attracted to- the socially awkward, celibate and intelligent.. not so much muscle and he is brain, and his courage manifests for the sake of protection of his own relations. By far, the first movie in my LIFE that I could relate to the female heroine in it.
This also was the first time in the 27 years history of my life I actually acquired a FEMALE role model- because Selene is WORTHY of that title.
So onto Valentine’s day- a holiday I am fond of. Regardless that people spout that it’s commercial- and maybe it is- I’d rather have a commercial holiday that makes you LOVE your family and friends than hate them. Heaven forbid someone asks you to be nice and thoughtful to another human being for the day- oh the horror worth criticizing and venomously attacking [/sarcasm].
But also my idea of “Romance” isn’t in the “pretty and pink Girly” kind… so imagine the merge of my cute and cuddly with my love for werewolves, beasts, and warring arts? Well, you get these.
About this Valentine- Goregeous
My favorite couple of the whole film. The chemistry, relations and interactions of these two is what would likely mirror myself and whomever my significant other will be. And in our own socially unacceptable/awkward/inproper ways, we would get along just fine.
Emotionally constipated? Check.
Socially Awkward? Check.
Blindly loyal to the point of naivete? Check.
Aggressive when thwarted? Check.
Possessive and jealous? Check.
Schooled in warring arts? Check.
Father issues? Checkity check check check!
So let us share a hand in our twisted little world- for the beauty of any relationship is how much we can tolerate, enjoy, and indulge in the gruesome unacceptable of our loved ones, as much as the acceptably habitual mediocre.
