amedia: (Alton & Vash)
[personal profile] amedia
I don't know if anyone out there in LJ-land is a fan of both Good Eats and Trigun, but if you are... you have to have noticed the similarities between Alton and Vash, right? I mean, one is a inhumanly skillful desperado on a mission to save the world, and the other one wears a red coat. So I had to make an icon.

He's the host of a cooking show on the Food Network who is kinda like Mr. Science. He's always bringing out giant models of things like protein molecules to explain why you cook things a certain way, or bringing on guest nutritional anthropologists. His personality actually is kinda like early Vash - goofy! - then when you add the little round glasses and the blond hair sticking up, well, it's inevitable.

I'm howling....

Now, see, on the other hand, I had to look Trygun and Vash up - but know Alton all too well! (And, Amedia, you called it right! Inhumanly skillful desperado....perhaps feasting on asphalt?) - and the other does wear a red coat...

Twins....

Since I had to look up Trigun (and used the easy way - Wikipedia!), I found this:

"Trigun evolves into a very serious discussion of the nature of morality, posing questions such as: What is the nature of morality? Can we judge different moral codes? If a person is forced to betray their moral code, does that betrayal invalidate that moral code, and can the person still try to live up to that moral code? Can the person find redemption from their wrongs, and if so, how?"

Which leads to another set of questions: "Good Eats evolves into a very serious overview of the history and uses of food, such as: Which came first - the paper mache chicken, or the egg? If Alton's hair is short, which set is he on? How does the Lady of the Refrigerator get in through the back? Who IS Shirley Corriher, and who called for a nutritional anthropolgist anyway? Is Elton really Alton as a child, timetraveling? And is there any hope for the relationship between Alton and W, or is she destined to only be a pain his neck?"

Which leads to another set of questions:

TOO FUNNY!!!!!!

That papier-mache chicken is a hoot, isn't it? And I *love* W, and her James-Bond-ish theme music, too!

I love the rack of old View-Masters he sometimes uses to introduce the historical segments. TODS collects those.
