how copy?

The 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."

FUCKING AWESOME.

I think I'm going to start every question from now on with, "Interrogative:..."

I already got everyone in my family saying "We're oscar mike." LMAO.

This makes me so nostalgic. I think I'll have to have a GK marathon tomorrow. :)

I wish I could find the link to these screencaps, they're the best ones I've seen.

I watched the pilot a while ago and It bored me (yeah, I know but keep reading XD) but a couple of days ago I decided that, since I had the hole season downloaded, I should give it a second chance... and it was worth it! Yay!

Niiiiice picspam!

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 ^^

[fiercehearts.livejournal.com]

love it! this show is amazing.

[aboutademongirl.livejournal.com]

*squealing giggle* Yes. I adore your little notes and this picspam, and I totally agree with you on practically all the points, but this one -- I'm a Nate/Brad shipper, and the last ep? Yeah. Major Ray/Brad contact.

[silentwilight.livejournal.com]

Wilson Bethel's Cold Case episode made me soooo sad.
He's a great actor. Very different than his GK role.

This is an awesome picspam :) Loved the comments too :)

ugh, all the best moments ♥

I also really love Stark Sands and his lips, really love his lips.
i kept getting distracted through the last episodes because i was watching his lips.

[amberlynne.livejournal.com]

I love how young Nate seems in the first episode. The first time I watched, I was like, who let the CHILD in? It makes it so much more satisfying later when is is a fucking badass.

I could just stare at this all damn day. *siiiiiiiiiigh*

oh my god.

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

PRETTY!

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!

[colourmayfade.livejournal.com]

Generation Kill is only seven episodes long? OMG I HAVE TO BE ALL OVER THAT.

I really wanted to watch, but I felt this wasn't a good time to get into yet another series, so I stayed away from it. Wish someone had told me it was a mini mini series!

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

[killmotion.livejournal.com]

Yessss. I agree. I've yet to rewatch it but hey I did buy it with yours and neversince's insistence so I can rewatch whenever!

[darknumb.livejournal.com]

I'm in love *__*

[sunshineclouds.livejournal.com]

I'm watching GK this week (I'm on episode 5 now) and GOD, IT'S AMAZING THE AMOUNT OF LOVE I ALREADY HAVE FOR THE SHOW AND THE ACTORS AND THE CHARACTERS AND JUST EVERYTHING /capslock

And like you said, it easily heads into your top 5 of favorite tv shows of all times because YES, IT IS THAT GOOD!

Thanks for such a gorgeous picspam.

[fly-meaway.livejournal.com]

Love the epicspam. You picked some of my favorite caps and I love the colors in it. That with your things to say about this show really makes me want to rewatch this show again (which I already did way too many times to count) :D

I can only agree with your "things". I'm so happy to see you also like Stark and his lips so much as I so love him and his lips too, lol. And yeah I don't even know what else to say as apart from the Ray/Brad girl I can only agree to everything that you said.

Thanks for this picspam :D

[joans23.livejournal.com]

WAR IS THE MOTHERFUCKING ANSWER. :D

You've assembled some pretty epic shots here. *drools*

[elle-bruin.livejournal.com]

Working backwards here.

Your picspams make me want to have another GK marathon. I bought the DVD set a few weeks ago and totally watched the show in a sitting.

Awesome picspam. Is it okay if I friend you?
