I wanna be a billionaire so fucking bad... (REPOST)

[hackthis_archive]

Random first: I am loving the hell out of Travis McCoy f/ Bruno Mars doing 'Billionaire'. Like to an insane degree. Here, have a copy.

Random second: Jon Stewart has stubble. I may not recover from this.

Poll Third!

[Poll #1598228]

ETA: I edited the poll for the virgins, please vote again!

Recs Last (but not Least)

These are all Arthur/Eames. I am not even going to front otherwise. Those of you who know me saw this the second Tom Hardy walked on the screen. *winks at random_flores

(in alphabetical order)

1. Dull Boy by sparky77. Despite whatever bias I may have in sparky77's favour I am recommending this not because it's her, but because she writes some of the best banter you will ever be fortunate enough to read. Besides who doesn't love it when the phrase "Fuck off and die" shows up in a story?

2. Equilibrium by atomicskull. Arthur and Eames have a past, this much is evident, but what it is is up to the author to decide. This is one option. Also, I don't like cats, but a female cat called James Bond is kinda awesome.

3.Little Sport by th_esaurus. First of all I have to say thank fuck for c-n-p because for the life of me I can't spell "thesaurus" properly. Okay I did there, but that's like one time out of twenty. I digress. This is another story of how Eames and Arthur met, but it's also about wooing and snakes and how sometimes things just end.

4.save lay my rifle down by queendombythe_c. After I finished this story I didn't know whether to laugh or cry (at how fucking awesome it is). Eames, Yusuf, Ariadne and Arthur steal paintings from the Louvre. It's easier than the Vatican. Even though there are no stolen penises (for real). And there are pigs. I like pigs. R.I.P. Max.

5.Sharp Dressed Man by annundriel. I equate nice clothes with porn and sometimes the only thing better than getting someone undressed... is getting them dressed. I really hope Mr. Nolan includes this in the outtake reel ;-)

6.too much like the world we're stuck in by anowlinsunshine. I don't want to spoil the premise, but the opening line will tell you exactly where this story is going and even if you think you know, you really don't. Lyrical and heart-breaking. Eames, you are so my favorite.

7.You're in a Maze by andrealyn. This is one of the first Arthur/Eames stories I read, if not the first. It's about Ariadne, and about Arthur and Eames, but what I most remember about it is the turquoise flower. I love that goddamn flower :D

Art Rec: sailtonorway has manips here. The Talib one I have already showcased in my Inception picspam. The cigar one. That is currently listed as story #5 in my WIP braintrust. Ask maurheti

If you enjoy the stories, please let the authors know.

Authors need love and support and water to grow.

But... there is no option for 'one, but one is DEFINITELY NOT ENOUGH, NO SIR, EVER.'

[miscellanny.livejournal.com]

*points up* this! XD

[maurheti.livejournal.com]

Wait, what about the "once, but I really want to see it again and again and possibly have its babies!" option?

That song. I love it!

I go read now --

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Your icon is hot. Shocking observation I know. I have to go think about Boxing!Fic. My life is v hard. Also, I need a different title, that one needs to be saved for something more emo.

[londondrowning.livejournal.com]

THERE IS NO BUTTON FOR "I HAVE SEEN IT ONCE BUT I WANT TO SEE IT A ZILLION MORE TIMES AND MY OFFICE IS DEVOURING MY LIFE."

But that is the button I would click. :(

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Of course you would, bb. :)

[wordsalone.livejournal.com]

1) Fun fact: My preschoolers like to sing that song.

2) I've only seen it once in full and the other times...I've been rewatching the Arther/Eames stuff.

3) *bookmarks everything*

4) Besides who doesn't love it when the phrase "Fuck off and die" shows up in a story?

And the context? Perfection.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

1. BEST PRESCHOOLERS EVER.

2. Nothing wrong with that. I am assured of this.

4. I am so happy she is writing in this fandom.

[acroamatica.livejournal.com]

Like everyone else who had to click "one", I am going again as soon as I can manage to.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

That's what I like to hear!

[rubywisp.livejournal.com]

"twice...so far."

unf. i LOVE that someone on my flist is pimping the shit out of this. it's christmas every day right now!

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

it's christmas every day right now!

YES. THIS.

[knowledgequeen.livejournal.com]

How about "haven't seen it yet because I've been up to my ass in law for my fucking bar exam"? By the time I get to it'll be out of all the theatres around me for all I know. >< *giant pet peeve*

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Stupid fucking bar. Heh. Don't worry, last week I was informed I was screwing up someone's thesis presentation with all the pimping, but the pimping will still be here when you have finished with the bar.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

You are very welcome!

[not-sally.livejournal.com]

Where's the "x-times so far" option?

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

You just made it!

[ariadne83]

I would see it if I wasn't flat broke.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

FUCKING ECONOMY. I feel this option dude, for real. :(

[th-esaurus.livejournal.com]

Oh! Thank you for the surprise rec <3

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Thank *you* for the lovely story. :)

[burntcopper.livejournal.com]

but there's no option of 'I've seen it but haven't had a chance to get back there yet due to piffling things like weddings and work.'

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

Damn those weddings and work! LOL!

[miscellanny.livejournal.com]

Have you seen Gangster #1? There's an excellent sequence with Paul Bettany getting nattily dressed...

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

That movie is fucking CRAZY. Ahem, yes, have done.

[summerstorm.livejournal.com]

I am gonna get there. Eventually. [because] It's not out in my country, but only available dubbed to Spanish. That blows.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

*pets*

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

*averts eyes from entire post* I need the poll choice of "None, dammit, I'm TRYING TO GET THERE but OMG SCHEDULE"

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

What is all this work business you lot keep complaining of? Very suspicious if you ask me ;-/

[shaney.livejournal.com]

Lol I have watched it exactly five times, so I am unable to vote :P

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

That's what that last one should be, but I did this at midnight, you gotta cut me some slack.

[inkandchocolate.livejournal.com]

I PROMISE I AM GOING THIS WEEK AND POSSIBLY AGAIN THIS WEEKEND!! Do not shun me. I am trying to get there, I promise!

*hangs head in shame*

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

SHUNNED!

Ha? Um, no, not shunned. It is AWESOME. Biased what?

[alethialia.livejournal.com]

There is no poll option for "None for I am TRAGICALLY crazed with moving and work and I kinda want to die. But not before I see it. ::sadface::"

But if there were such an option...count me in for that.

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

We are moving? Where are we going? Please say, "to The Happy Place and we are taking you along."

Also, this is impressive as I know you are not a movie girl ;-)

[snarkaddict.livejournal.com]

1. Have you watched the music video? It is so cute! Basically, I heart the fuck outta Travis. :DD

2. ARRRRGH! BB, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW PISSED OFF I AM THAT I HAVEN'T WATCHED IT YET AND I CAN'T READ YOURS AND SPARKY'S FICS! :((((

[juliandahling.livejournal.com]

VERY VERY GOOD REC LIST.

I actually bookmarked all of them...

[anonymityblaize.livejournal.com]

I thought that twice would would be enough to tide my brain over, but my brain seems to disagree and wants me to go a third time. Oh well...

[smonsterbite.livejournal.com]

Going to see it on IMAX on Saturday. Why? Because you mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.

[smonsterbite.livejournal.com]

Which will be the third time, btw.

[o-glorianna.livejournal.com]

Dear hackthis,

Since I saw Inception and read your Arthur/Eames fics, I was hoping that you'd put together a list such as this. When I saw that you had today, I felt like I'd eaten an entire bowl of ice cream drizzled with happiness.

From,
Me.

[scifigirl.livejournal.com]

I clicked one, but I will be seeing it at least one more time before it leaves the theatres. BECAUSE SERIOUSLY, AWESOME MOVIE.

[msloserrific.livejournal.com]

I'm in Africa so I haven't gotten to see it :(
