1. Reply to this post, and I will pick six-eight of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee.


[livejournal.com profile] djkiwi2576 gave me...




The Fall: I can't believe this movie hasn't Donnie Darko'ed itself into being supposedly over-hyped yet. It's amazing and the average person I know still hasn't heard of it. I happen to fucking love the story, but if for no other reason, watch it for the visuals and Lee Pace's arms.

Kara Thrace with a side of creeper!Leoben: Mostly I just liked the look of this icon. I thought the whole Leoben/Kara thing was really interesting and cringe-inducing at the same time. Since I wished they'd done more with it by the end, you could say I...kinda shipped it? They really didn't bring things full circle with the Leobens.

Jurassic Park: This one gets laughs, but only when I run into people who have seen JP enough times/recently enough to get it. It's a valuable "yes-I'm-being-a-little-bit-tongue-in-cheek" icon.

East of Eden: Abra and Cal, in the Kazan adaptation, are basically my OTP of classic films. My God, the ANGST. Dean's performance thoroughly woobifies his character all the way through.

tummy kiss: I got this at some point when I realized I didn't have any stock icons. I kind of like that I've never been able to figure out if it's a guy or a girl.

Spock: I was wondering the other day if it would be possible for a fic to convincingly make Spock drop the 'f' bomb out loud and that was a really bad idea because now it's almost an unofficial goal of mine. No. No, it's not. But seriously.


And the song meme that everybody's doing:

Day 01 - Your favourite song
Day 02 - A song that makes you happy
Day 03 - A song that makes you sad
Day 04 - A song that reminds you of someone
Day 05 - A song that reminds you of somewhere
Day 06 - A song that reminds you of a certain event
Day 07 - A song that you can dance to
Day 08 - A song that makes you fall asleep
Day 09 - A song from your favourite band
Day 10 - A song that no one would expect you to love
Day 11 - A song that describes you
Day 12 - A song from your favourite album
Day 13 - A song that you listen to when you're angry
Day 14 - A song that you listen to when you're happy
Day 15 - A song that you listen to when you're sad
Day 16 - A song that you want to play at your wedding
Day 17 - A song that you want to play at your funeral
Day 18 - A song that makes you laugh
Day 19 - A song that turns you on
Day 20 - A song you've listened to after a break-up
Day 21 - A song that gives you shivers
Day 22 - A song you can't help but air-jam to


"Amsterdam" by Coldplay.

I agree all the way. The Cell is gorgeous and definitely had some good concepts with the story, but I was way more emotionally invested in The Fall. It might deserve a bit less credit for that for being a remake of a very similar story, but w/e. The friendship between those two was great to watch.

Oh! I'll totally do the icon thing. XD Although most of them will just get a "...I thought it was cool?" remark and a bit of hand!flail. Hahaha! Anyway, I loved yours, very nice.

Oh, BSG. I think I watched the first three seasons in a rush, in less than a month, just in time for S4 to start and I loved the beginning, but then I totally, sadly lost interest. I was pissed about that. I wasn't even miffed that I missed the finale.

Ahhh, dude. I'm so sorry I forgot to do this. Thanks for picking them out, though! I feel terrible. :(

Haha, RIGHT? God, I love that style. I'm all for clean, bright, and crisp icons that have some sass and character. She has so many!
