Just spent like...4 hours emailing my cousin in Nicaragua. My eyes don't wanna look at the computer screen anymore. IT BUUUUURNS. But...I wanna play World of Warcraft at the same time!

Oh despair. D:

Sooo..I went to ComicCon yesterday with Lynn138 and DarkRose91 here on TV.com, and a couple of their friends as well. ^^

THE TWILIGHT PANEL WAS AMAZING. Oh man. Fangirls are crazy. XD I mean, I love Rob and Taylor as much as the next fangirl, but..woooow. Hahahaha. The "new" clip they showed at the panel was cool, although a lot of it was already in the trailer so it wasn't like, super new or anything. Let's see...the actors there were Taylor Lautner (Jacob), Edi Gathegi (Laurent), Rachelle Lefevre (Victoria), Cam Gigandet (James), Kristen Stewart (Bella), and Robert Pattinson (Edward). Stephanie Meyer (YAAAAY) and Catherine Hardwick (the director for the movie) were also there.

Anyway, the Q&A session was FREAKING HILARIOUS. My favorite question: "How does it feel like to be one of America's most wanted men? CUZ I WANT YOU!" XD

Another girl also asked if any one in the cast could tell the audience a random or spontaneous moment during the filming of Twilight, and everyone in the panel just kinda looked at each other awkwardly, like...waiting for someone else to say something, and then eventually Cam (actor for James) started talking, but for some reason he couldn't word whatever it was he wanted to say, and then Catherine (director) was like, "Oh, I got one! When we were filming the kissing scene, Rob got a little too passionate and fell of the bed." And I was like.... :O (I don't remember a kissing scene like that in Twilight...unless, maybe it was like a scene on one of those nights when he comes to her room to watch her sleep or whatever it is he does ). It was funny cuz then Rob started laughing and Kristen just kept looking at him, like with her eyebrows raised, as if she's accusing him of something, and he would look at her and then look away. Hahahaha.

And then Rachelle (Victoria), when asked about how she got into the movie, said that she had been reading the book and really connected with Bella's character, so she decided that she was gonna be a part of the Bella's universe, even if it meant terrorizing her. XD

All in all, I loved it. Random blurbs now: Taylor has a really cute smile :] , the actors for James, Victoria, and Laurent are PERFECT, Kristen Stewart's got attitude (in a good way =P ), and Rob is a brilliant actor, but always at a loss for words when asked a question.

OMG, speaking of Rob, something reeeeally funny I found after reading the interview with Stephanie Meyer today was this (from Fanbolt.com or something...):

" Robert Pattinson, when asked about what he thought about the screaming crowd of girls, responded by saying it was "terrifying" and that it sounded like "the gates of hell". "

Ahahaha. "Gate of hell"?? Poor Rob. XD And then he went on to say in an interview on that site how even though people think he should be used to it by now after Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, the screams from Harry Potter fangirls are somehow different from those of the Twilight fangirls. And I was just like, "Okaaaay" after I heard him say that in the interview. XD

Anywayyy..uhhhh, other than that, before the panel, we sat through other previews and another panel and stuff, and now I want to see the movies The Day The Earth Stood Still, Push, and Knowing. OH, and right before the Summit Panel started (which consisted of the Push, Knowing, and Twilight panels), GUESS WHO CAME ON STAGE? THE ACTOR FOR THE DUDE WHO PLAYS WOLVERINE IN X-MEN! His name's Hugh Jackman (I just looked that up =P ), and he was really excited to be at ComicCon. It was funny cuz the announcer dude was like, "I've just received news that someone has just arrived, all the way from Australlia. Give it up for Hugh Jackman!" And at first I was like, "Okay, who does this dude think he is, stalling the Twilight panel." AND THEN I RECOGNIZED HIM, so I was like....AHHHHHH. We got to see a sneak peak at the upcoming Wolverine movie. After the panel, we explored the exhibition hall and got a bunch of free stuff and had fun at a whole bunch of different booths. I wanted to buy this really cute hat that had like..cat ears on it, but it was 15 or 20 bucks or something and I was like, "Hahahaha....no." I'm not paying that much for a hat, even if it was really cute. T.T

So yeah, that's my ComicCon rant. LOVED it! Although...the Avatar panel's today, and I wish I could've gone. Tite Kubo, creator of Bleach, is also gonna be there today, and so are Michelle Ruff and Stephanie Sheh, voice actors for RUKIA and Orihime. I wish I could've gone today too..=/ Oh well..there's always next year! =D

And I am thoroughly pleased with the finale. No fan of any other show can ever come near to the pride I think all of us Avatar fans feel. :]

So...I'm not sure if the finality of the show hasn't hit me yet, or maybe this is really how I feel, but...I'm not as depressed as I thought I would be. Just relieved that a) none of the characters died and b) happy that the finale turned out the way it turned out.

I mean, was that not just THE MOST FREAKING AMAZING THING TV HAS EVER AIRED?! It was EPIC. No, epic can't even grasp the scope of how earth-shattering that finale was. It was just...wow.

Okay, so to be honest...I don't know where to begin in this little rant of mine. Um...okay, so I guess I can start with how AWESOME of a job The Track Team did with the music on the show. Here's to hoping they can successfully release a soundtrack for Avatar that all of us can buy and enjoy. I mean, DID YOU HEAR THE MUSIC DURING THE AGNI KAI SCENE?! My heart was seriously racing. And then at the very end...did anyone catch the tune? It's a really cute medley sorta thing called "Nighttime Sky" that The Track Team has put in other episodes, liiike...at the end of the season 1 episode, Avatar Roku: Winter Solstice Part 2. It was also at the end of Return to Omashu from season 2. I just thought it was really cool how they brought it back for the end. ^^

As for the animation...do I really need to explain any of it? =P It pretty much speaks for itself. Everything was so pretty to look at, and so intense...a;kdfj;ahjhgas;dlj Oh, and they added a lot of computer generated stuff with the air ship scene. I thought that was really cool, 'cause everything was all 3-Dish and stuff. AND THE BENDING...best bending scenes everrr. 8D

And now, for the actualy story. WOW. Okay, I totally didn't see the whole 'taking-away-Ozai's-firebending' thing coming. Unpredictable, as usual. I mean, while I was watching it, I was like...okay, so mayyyybe that's a possbility. But a couple episodes back, that idea would've never occurred to me. But I liked it. A lot. Even if my brother was calling Aang "a pansy" for not being able to kill Ozai, I think it sticks true to Aang's character and leaves a good message that everyone should always keep with them: Violence is never the answer. Imagine what this world could be if everyone lived up to that message...

There were two scenes that had me EXTREMELY frightened. The first was the agni kai. Okay, WHAT THE HECK was Zuko thinking by tempting Azula to shoot lightning at him?! I mean, C'MON. "Hey Azula! What happened with your lightning? Afraid I'll redirect it?!" ....NO. Sorry Zuko, but you do NOT tempt a literally mentally unstable and psycopathic sibling to kill you. At first, I was like 'Okay, if he can redirect it, I guess he'll be fine." But then I see Azula aiming the lightning at Katara, and I'm like...=O So then by this point, everything is going in slow motion (both my heart AND what's on the TV screen), and then Zuko gets in the way and gets hit by the lightning, and I thought Zuko was gonna die, and..and..and...I was very scared. ;___; Luckily, Katara saves him, haha. After that, I was a little on edge because it seemed like they were maybe gonna kiss or something. But that scene didn't last very long and nothing happened, so I was like..."Well, Zutara's chances are looking pretty slim now." =P

So after that whole dramatic scene, they go into another dramatic scene. My heart by this point can't take much more. Seriously, my worst fear was that someone would die. And there were sooo many instances where someone COULD'VE died. That being said, when I heard that giant turtle lion say the word "SACRIFICE" to Aang, my poor heart just about died. And then, when those words were going through Aang's head during the light fest thing with Ozai, I was like, "NoooOOooOoOooooOO!!!" And then they turned all red and I thought it was gonna be like the Pokemon movie or something where Ash turned to stone, and I thought they were both gonna turn to stone or just disappear like hollows in Bleach or something. So yeah, I'm hyperventilating by this point, and then they turn BLUE. *lets out HUGE sigh of relief* Blue is a very good color when it comes to these sort of things. It's a much more cooler color, and since it was like...Aang's spirit blue sorta, I knew he was gonna be okay. And of course, he was. :]

The most tear-jerking scene? For me, it was Zuko and Iroh's reunion. Zuko started crying, and then Iroh started crying, and then I started crying, and then it was like...IT WAS SO ADORABLE! And Iroh...ahhhhh! I wanted to hug him too! I loved how Zuko was like, "How can you forgive me so easily? Aren't you mad?" and then Iroh was like, "I was never angry with you. Only sad that you had lost your way." And then that pretty much made me well up with tears, it was like... T.T YAY FOR IROH AND ZUKO REUNION. (:

Alright, so now...loose ends.

1) Where IS Zuko's mom?

2) Do Toph and her parents ever receive closure?

3) Did Iroh ever take that trip to the spirit world? 'Cause he can see spirits, and you can only see them if you've been to the spirit world, right? So why would he have gone to the spirit world...?

4) Bending: genetical or spiritual? This is a question that's been going on for a looooong time. And it's kind of important, considering Aang is the last one left...

5) What happened to bringing the airbenders back anyway? I thought I read in an interview somewhere that the show was gonna have to be changed from "The Last Airbender" to "One of The Last Airbenders." Of course, that was just a bit of humor, but it still holds some truth.

6) Uhhh...what happened to Azula?

And yeah...I think that's mostly it. I mean, I'm not saying they're loose ends that NEED to be tied up. It'd just be nice to have some answers. But then again, I guess it's sorta like saying that not every single problem can be resolved with just the defeat of Ozai. Which is just like in real life. I mean, real life has PLENTY of loose ends, haha.

So yeah. All in all, I am EXTREMELY proud of Avatar. It has come far, since that fateful airing on February 21, 2005, when it first came out on Nickelodeon. I still regret that I wasn't obsessed with the show until halfway through the first season. But better late than never, I guess. =] Avatar will always live on. I mean, it's like it's a part of who I am. It holds a special place in my heart, just like I'm sure it does for all you other hardcore fans out there. We've laughed, cried, obsessed, screamed, spazzed, squealed, cringed, hated, and loved. And I know I'll never regret any one of those moments. HUGS AND A HUGE THANKS TO MICHAEL DANTE DIMARTINO AND BRYAN KONIETZKO, AS WELL AS THE REST OF THE AVATAR STAFF! The whole world is in your debt. :]

Here's to Avatar, BEST FREAKING SHOW THIS UNIVERSE HAS AND WILL EVER CONCEIVE.

It's been a long time since I've been able to write that. ^^

Well...Southern Raiders. Description on the TV for the episode? "Katara confronts a soldier." (Or something like that). Hmm. Well, I'll probably be on later to blog about it. 8D

So yeah, until then...I COME BEARING NEWS FOR BLEACH! I don't know how many people have heard this, but...there's gonna be a new Bleach movie. Know what it's called?

"GOODBYE, RUKIA"

WHAT A HORRIBLE NAME FOR A MOVIE! ESPECIALLY SINCE RUKIA'S MY FAVORITE CHARACTER! D: My only comfort is that they can't kill her off (at least, I don't think they can...), since it would sorta contradict the manga and everything. But still! Even if they fake her death, I'll be really upset. Although, it'll probably be like that one Shippuden movie, "The Death of Naruto" or whatever...where Naruto DIDN'T die... XD What I look forward to the most is that...well, there's bound to be a lot of IchiRuki footage if it's a movie about Rukia. :3 AND LOOK! They already have a new ending dedicated to them (from the way I see it, anyway =P )

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCAfPtyvnb8

BAM. Totally IchiRuki. :]

Aaand....maaaan. I CAN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT AVATAR. I'm very anxious for Saturday to come! Who else is gonna cry when it's over? XD On a slightly different note, I'd like to point out the fact that Avatar is pwning all other shows right now on the top 10 show list thing here on TV.com. FINALLY. Avatar's back in it's rightful spot. ^^

Well..I guess that's it. Until later today, hopefully! 8D

Okay, okay, so I'm being melodramatic. Whatever, I don't care. July 14th does feel like it will be the beginning of the end...of Avatar, anyway. ;____;

But I guess I shouldn't be sad. I mean, at least it's not gonna be airing for ages and ages until you get sick of it, like some other shows coughSPONGEBOBcoughPOKEMONcough. D:

Even though I shouldn't, I can't help but feel a little sting of sadness. I mean, just knowing that everything will be wrapped up after this last season finale...no more betrayal surprises from Zuko, no more blasphemously deceptive season finales, no more new bending techniques, no more new characters...no more nothing...it just feels like things will be a little empty. On the flip side, because there's no more new stuff, we can always cling childishly to the old. Which is a good thing, I think. 8D

And, with Shyamalan's movies and stuff, there's still a future left for Avatar. :] It also seems like Nickelodeon's started to have an epiphany of just how freaking amazing Avatar is. At least, I hope they are. I hardly think they give Avatar the credit it so rightfully deserves...

Ahhhh. I sound so weird. I feel like I'm speaking too professionally. XD

On a totally different note, I finally got around to reading Twilight. I know, I know. Don't shoot me. I got enough of that from the people at school when I told them I hadn't read it yet. XD Well, now I did, aaaaand...I can really understand WHY they wanted to shoot me. IT'S SO AWESOME. 8D

I've read Twilight and New Moon. Still gotta get a copy of Eclipse before Breaking Dawn comes out. Soooo, one question for you people...Edward or Jacob? Hahahahaha.

So now I've gotta get off because my brother's friend is being annoying and wants to use the computer. -_____-

EDIT: AHHHHH. I just saw the list for the Ouran High School ENGLISH CAST.
