memoryfloodsinThe West Wing is my favourite TV show of all time and I'd love to picspam every episode but it's 7 seasons long and that's just not practical. However Generation Kill is rapidly heading into my top 5 TV shows of all time and it's only 7 episodes long so I'm going to picspam that.
These are just a selection of shots I like, moments I love and people I find v. pretty. There aren't any spoilers. And we're starting with episode 1 because I'm so original.
Also, I only have a few people on my flist who watch GK so if anyone is interested in being flailed at about it, feel free to add me.
Some things:
→ There is so much cinematic pretty with this show. I love the colours, blues/greens and oranges/yellows.
→ I really love close up shots of Alex's eyes. Not only are they exceptionally pretty but they're so expressive.
→ I also really love Stark Sands and his lips, really love his lips.
→ I can't decide which are more awesome the close up shots or the really wide shots. Hmmm.
→ FRUITY RUDY! We love you!!
→ Wilson Bethel has the most adorable grin. He's so sweet. Side note: I watched his ep of Cold Case yesterday and cried sooo much.
→ I love Evan's look of 'WTF' whilst Espera and Chaffin are bitching at each other.
→ LOVE the close ups of Sixta. I do however find myself thinking about carrying watermelons when he's on screen. I can't help it! He's Johnny Castle's cousin!
→ James also has phenomenally expressive eyes. They're so sad. I guess a side product of the drugs?
→ LOVE LOVE LOVE the shadow of the camouflage net on Godfather's face.
→ Went a little overboard (is that possible?) with Stark here but I can't help it, his face is so sweet and adorable.
→ I do really love Godfather's sense of humour.
→ I'm a Ray/Brad girl really but the eyefucking between Nate and Brad in that scene is a little extreme.
→ Skarsgard's expressive eyes again and the end of this episode is so depressing, just because you can feel their disappointment that they're not shooting anything and then on top of that they're not even able to do the humanitarian part of their job.
Person: "Dear Frederick! Thank you for your nice letter. But I am actually a U.S. Marine who was born to kill, whereas clearly you have mistaken me for some sort of wine-sipping communist dick-suck. And although peace probably appeals to tree-loving bisexuals like you and your parents, I happen to be a death-dealing, blood-crazed warrior who wakes up every day just hoping for the chance to dismember my enemies and defile their civilizations. Peace sucks a hairy asshole, Freddie. War is the motherfucking answer. But thanks for writing anyway. Your pal, Ray."

Date: 2009-08-14 07:26 pm (UTC)I actually watched GK for the first time last week (ASkars obsession,I can't help it *g*) and loved it SFM ♥
but the eyefucking between Nate and Brad in that scene is a little extreme.
Not only in this scene *lol* As much as I liked Brad/Ray,I ship Brad/Nate more ^^

Date: 2009-08-14 07:32 pm (UTC)I didn't have an ASkars obsession until I watched Gen Kill (possibly the only person in the world to not have one) but now one is slowly developing.
They do eyefuck at lot!

I also really love Stark Sands and his lips, really love his lips.

Date: 2009-08-14 08:32 pm (UTC)THIS.
OH MY GOD.
okay, I'll try to put all my love for this 'spam in some kind of coherent order:
- as another huge fan of the west wing who has also recently discovered GK, I get the love. I actually think the two shows are really alike in a way. they both give the viewers a group of people trying to work within an amazingly difficult bureaucratic system that is often not what they'd imagined it to be. for example, I think Toby is a lot like Nate in the sense that Toby (for all his gruffness) is so idealistic, constantly striving for more than he knows he'll be able to achieve. Nate is the same, and they both are a bit broken by the system, by the end.
-now on to the picspam, this is SO BEAUTIFUL. So many great moments, the coloring, everything. Everything you love, I also love. especially nate's lips, oh my god.
awesome job bb! <3 <3
no subject
Date: 2009-08-14 08:41 pm (UTC)They really are, in the way you describe and also stylistically - the walk and talk being translated to drive and talk and the fast pace etc.
It's such a beautiful show. Nate's lips especially. Thanks again!
no subject
Date: 2009-08-14 09:01 pm (UTC)I never tire of looking at GK images.
Went a little overboard (is that possible?) with Stark here but I can't help it, his face is so sweet and adorable.
I love that first one, with him biting his bottom lip. And the eye-fucking with Brad!
no subject
Date: 2009-08-14 09:12 pm (UTC)I never tire of looking at GK images. Same, this was possibly the easiest picspam ever because it was just a joy to look at the caps. I wish I'd been around the fandom when it was starting because it seems a few behind the scenes pics/promos etc are now only dead links - and I bet they were gorgeous.
Basically anytime Stark draws attention to his lips my tummy flutters a little.

Anyway, this is gorgeous. Now I'm off to watch.

Thanks for this picspam :D
