Icon Dump

So, I've had most of these lying around on my computer since last summer and thought I'd post them. The sizing is rather inconsistent. Oh well. Did I mention how much I love pretty pictures of things I heart? Feel free to grab any you like. Credit's nice, but I'm not really a stickler for it.

Subject matter herein treated, in order, includes:

Delightful Girl Choon-Hyang (kdrama)
Ah, the comfort drama of my heart. One of the first ones I saw, and I fell pretty hard. I'm not sure what it is, but this drama just doesn't age for me (although objectively speaking it probably should.)

Dong Yi (period kdrama)
Oh, boy. The amount of time I spent watching Dong Yi this summer is COMPLETELY disproportionate to the show's quality. Alas, what can I say? I have a very serious problem.

Capital Scandal (period kdrama)
This drama annoyed me in a lot of ways, but I remember enjoying its sense of humor and fun, especially in the first two thirds or so.

Tamna the Island (period fusion kdrama)
Say what you will about the bad engrish and cheesiness of Tamna. In the formulaic world of kdrama, this one stands out in my mind as being somewhat original, and for that I salute it. Plus, it has Park Kyu in it, which alone is worth the price of admission.

Cinderella's Sister (kdrama)
Now this is a classic example of the far too typical "started-off-amazing-got-me-thoroughly-hooked-then-proceded-to-drag-me-through-the-ninth-circle-of-plot-floundering-hell" kdrama prototype. Still, I loved the premise and characters. Plus, Moon Geun-Young at her best. I rest my case.

Various manga
Enjoy the pretty! In the interest of giving credit where credit is due, many of these images come from the wallpaper pages over at Emily's Random Shoujo Manga. She in turn got them from the websites of publishers.

Beauty and the Beast (Disney)
I love Silence of the Lambs, but Batb was robbed in 1991.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season Eight (Comic)
Yes, I am obsessed enough with the show to buy and read the comic continuation. Which if nothing else has nice artwork.

Dollhouse (US television)
And, while we're on the subject of Whedon, let's show his most recent ill-fated show some love, shall we?

Jane Eyre, 2006 version (BBC)
Probably the best adaptation of the book to date, but still not THE definitive version in my mind. (I have high hopes for the upcoming 2011 film, though. Fingers crossed. My love of Charlote Bronte compels me to be very exacting when it comes to this particular source material.)

The Great Gatsby/Le Petit prince (Book art)
Just because :)
