Tropers: KJ Mackley
I've loved television and movies for a long time, and am working on getting into the field by writing, directing, or really anything I can make a decent living at. Going to college right now.
I enjoy entertainment that is tightly executed. The type where it seems like every scene, every action, every character and every line has a point to it. I don't mind downer endings so long as it isn't nihilistic.
I also have an account on TV.com here.
My fanfiction.net account is here.

Cartoons
- Batman- The Animated series through Justice League (The Batman is alright, but this version is the definitive one for me)

- Mighty Max- Oh I wish they'd come out with DVD's.
- Transformers, including Beast Wars.
- ReBoot
Live Action TV
- Star Trek- I watch the episode "Best of Both Worlds" when it first aired and it terrified me. I was hooked ever since.
- Kyle XY
- Smallville

Film
- Studio Ghibli is constantly impressive. Spirited Away is my favorite, just enchanting.
- Star Wars- Like most of the free world.
- The Last Samurai- Besides the Historical Inaccuracy, it is a loving portrait of the Japanese culture and builds an excellent story.
