Distracting myself from tv spoilers ...

[lizardbeth]

Here's a link for my write-up on the Criminal Minds finale, with Tricia Helfer being fabulously evil. Here.

I finally watched Iron Man 2 for the Natasha-ness of it all. Favorite scene is definitely her strike on Hammer Ind. I don't think the movie as a whole was all that much, tbh. Natasha, Fury, Coulson were the best parts. Thinking about going to Avengers tomorrow.

Naturally (this is me, after all) my Clint/Natasha story is growing out of its little seed. I really should finish "Understanding the Storm, part 2" though, first. and also BSG Fic. argh. why must shiny things be so shiny and distracting?

I loved Natasha's fight scenes in Iron Man 2 because I will always love women beating the shit out of people (I have a problem), but she...was barely a character in that movie, IMO. Her personality was minimal. The claims that she was just their to be eye candy hold a lot more weight in Iron Man 2 than in The Avengers (where they hold none, as far as I'm concerned). The Avengers did SO MUCH with her. Because Joss actually gives a shit about writing for women.

If I'd known Tricia was in it, I'd have watched it! Damn. I'll have to see if I can find it on Hulu or something.
