[ereth’cerri]Programming Note

Normally this is the time you’d see a post about last night’s game and the wonderful shennanigans everyone gets up to.

Well, we didn’t play last night. So you’re just going to have to wait til tomorrow morning.

Until then, Shadowrun Returns on July 27th! I can’t wait!

So i spent about 90 minutes in the pro editor today to see if I could get it down.

Here’s my N7 Armor from Mass Effect, I’ll give you guys the QR code when then let me MAKE QR codes.

There’s a really subtle pattern on the main plates of two alternating grays, to capture the carbon fiber reinforcement look. My favorite part is the back harness. The weapon holsters blue highlights stick out well, but without weapons on them, they look like Kinetic barrier chargers, or just some random energy pack. Plus, the vertebrae brace wiggles when you sprint. much like it does in Mass Effect.

Thoughts?

This seriously pisses me off because TWO men of the “correct” ethnicity/race were asked to play the role of Khan. I don’t remember their names because this back when Into Darkness was in casting yo but they BOTH DECLINED.
So there’s a HUGE difference between “well, we asked the best in the business and they both said no, so we should go with another actor of the ‘incorrect’ race who is also very well suited for the role” and doing what the Hunger Games did which is literally only let white girls audition for Katniss. 
When actors decline there is fuckall you can do. It’s shitty, no doubt, that Khan ended up being white, but BC did a great job in the role, while knowing he was third choice. I won’t begrudge him for taking it, and I won’t begrudge the casting crew for going with him after their best actors declined. 

^ Bless.

I was not aware that actors of other races were offered the role first and then declined, actually. This is literally the first time anyone has ever talked about it where I can see it? It really changes a fair amount of my opinion on the matter.

Very, very good to know.

Khan’s face was painted in the original. The actor was white.

Ricardo Montalbon was not white. Ricardo Montalban was the son of Spanish immigrants living in Mexico.
Ricardo Montalbon was a Spanish dude playing an Indian dude with the Asian name Khan.

But I am glad to hear that it wasn’t a deliberate casting choice to make him white, and yes, Benedict Cummerbatch did a great job as him.

ATTENTION GLUTEN-FREE BOSTONIANS: The gluten-free cart in Fenway Park (section D) is fabulous! They have gluten-free buns, gluten-free desserts, and there’s even gluten-free beer across the way.

Don’t be deceived by the “gluten friendly” label, they mean “gluten-free friendly” ;)

Some more of the edited photos from myself and http://a-little-more-tea.tumblr.com ‘s photoshoot.

Here’s one of those, holy crap, I never expected to see this! cosplay photo shoots.

This is DeeDee, Harley Quinn’s grand daughters from the Batman Beyond movie Return of the Joker, voiced by Melissa Joan Hart. This is crazy cool.
