This week in No Karakana...

Well, it was a busy week last week, and I didn't get everything done that I wanted to put up here. So that leaves me with plenty of content for this week. Unfortunately, I still have to generate that content.

First are my thoughts on Live-Action cartoon movies. That post is probably about two-thirds done.

Mrs. Kidan and I went to see Transformers over the weekend (three hours of uninterrupted no-kids time, we almost didn't know what to do with ourselves) and thoroughly enjoyed it. My wife was pleasantly surprised, though she thought there was too much fighting at the end-an thought not shared by myself or my fellow geek co-worker. Anyways, my review of the new Transformers movie (and yes Princess, I'll tell you my thoughts on it before I post the review for the world to read, and yes, I'll actually speak them out loud to you) should be up fairly soon. Probably before the stuff about Live-Action cartoon movies.

Then tonight is Ani-Monday where we get the next episodes of Noein and Tokko (and of course Macross PLUS which I'm not watching). Then tomorrow night we have the return of Eureka and I'm fairly ecstatic about that.

The final two essays I want to prepare for this week are my thoughts on just where Riina comes from (that's Star Wars EU material) and something about s-groups in Heinlein's Friday and how they relate to the state of marriage in today's society. I just wish I had created that content in time for the Heinlein Centennial celebrations. Other Heinlein related content that I have planned is a glimpse through Starship Troopers to see just how well he previewed the state of affairs in regards to society, and a thought about the probability of the balkanization of the United States from Friday. When those last two will get generated... well who knows. I can be slow on the content stuff sometimes.

Anyways, as noted, I have plenty of content planned, now all I have to do is find time to write it.

Nice. Looking foward to the Riina essay. I'm hoping to see more of Tahira/Riina in the upcoming Legacy novels.

Thanks! And the Riina stuff should be up in a few days or so. I too think some more Tahiri in LotF would be awesome. Especially if Anakin pops back up :)
