First of all THIS upsets me and will most likely suck. Though I can say at least two things so far in it's favor. No Julia Roberts, and they seem to have kept all the men out of The Women. On the other hand, maybe Eva Mendes can play as good of a psycho biotch as Joan Crawford, but...and I like Annette Bening...Annette Bening is no Rosalind Russell.
Ever notice in the episode of Psych "Cloudy...Chance of Murder" which yes I have watched one too many times, when they are watching the sex/murder tape, specifically the sex part, and Gus asks, "Any of you ever make noises like that?" that Shawn answers immediately and dead serious, "His or hers?" ??? Heh. Evil thoughts forming.
Be a while for those though. The next bit is going to be a challenge. For serious.
(Hey, Spacey, Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

This is good. I have all this loverly ideas for later scenes with him and Lassi. It's just the next one that is going to be difficult, because I may have given them a lot of issues to work out. haha. Yes, I dig my own grave. Sad.
*am picturing Shawn shrieking and squealing like a girl when Lassi puts his mouth right there*

(I sort of picture Jules/Shawn ending like Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. The movie ends and they're together, but in the beginning intro Harry says it's already over. Which is why he ends up with grouchy detective man...heeee)
Jules could toughen up. But why make her into a female Lassiter when there's already a Lassiter right there? She just needs to be tough enough to protect Gus. They are so there as reflection version of Shawn/Lassiter.

I think it's why I love PotC so much...I mean, really, I live in a place founded by pirates, I am a pale British girl amongst dark (Ok, tan, you know what I mean) tropical natives, and I have some very, VERY good Caribbean rum that you can't get in the states sitting in my cabinets. Oh, and there is also my thing with bewigged boys in uniforms....

I always wondered about poor Norry, all pale and stuck in that climate, wearing all those layers. Jack wonders too. They were a fun smexy couple until the second movie made Jack a borderline psychopath. :( Sadness.
I had this whole story weaving all sorts of catch/chase, trickster/justice sexiness through the ages, with Jack and Norrington only being this stop in this eternal hot struggle between chaos and order (like, Loki/Odin, Coyote etc...) that I totally abandoned. Now I'm wondering if I ought to stick Shawn and Lassiter in there too.
Sometimes I get too big for my britches though. So it's best that I not continue that.

I always thought that with Norrington's complex in the beginning, Gillette was probably getting it HARD at night.
I grew up on PotC in all its forms (DL and WDW) and I was SO HAPPY with the first one and, with the exception of my bewigged babes, the 2nd and 3rd were so disappointing and not in the spirit at all.
I mean, even those three years I spent as a Disney cast member were filled with us going on PotC on our days off. It's such a fun experience and one of my favorite voice actors, Thurl Ravenscroft, has such a prominent role in it, so it's doubly good for me. The addition of Jack was good, but retconning in Davy Jones and Barbosa did NOT work and it ruins the beginning of the ride for me.
Mmm...Chris Knight and Jerry Hathaway--Real Genius. Those two kind of personify that as well.

Maybe I ought to drop hints over at rareslash...
I never got to see the original POTC. Sigh. It was getting repaired when I went to Disneyland as a kid. I've seen the censored version and I refuse to go see the new version from the movies. Yuck.

I remember the uncensored version. Barely.
I think Kent/Chris could work if Kent weren't so damned physically unattractive in the movie.
But a Kent/Chris/Hathaway thing where Kent yearns for Jerry and then catches Chris with Jerry and Kent can't understand how two men who hate each other so much could get along...like that would be kind of cool.
OH GOD STOP ME NOW
And Kent was in SPACEBALLS (yes, I am on imdb)?

I see Jerry more as a Beckett figure. He's too corrupt at heart to be Norrington.
Of course, Kent is a weenie, but he didn't want to make a laser either.
Hmmm this all kind of does need to get written though. Kent has to get over his Jerry worship though. And omg the way he was all upset when Chris was off with those *beauticians* (student beauticians).
From:

I believe that Kent was a little...astounded...at the fact that Chris was off at a party. WITH GIRLS.
Does Ken know something we don't about Chris?
From:
no subject
He's got a good jawline and a nice build.
the thick glasses have to go. And the braces would go anyway....
it would start out almost as pity...and then be something more I think, surprising Chris more than Kent.

I mean, it started innocently enough and now we are porning a 23 year old cult hit...thank God we have the common sense to leave Mitch out of it, seeing as how he was only 15. And I don't think Lazlo will be making an appearance.
But I can totally see Chris doing some freaknastybuttmonkey shit to Kent and Kent recites formulas in his head to stop himself from going over the edge.

No Mitch. (I have Real Genius slash, in which Mitch and Jordan had both slept with Chris in the past...it was sad and weird. Not at all what I wanted).
btw, requesting permission to steal buttmonkey some time in the future.
