inmyriadbits: oranges on blue (chess)
HEE. I am really unholy amounts of amused by the titles of the songs on the Mission Impossible 4 soundtrack, because it is full of horrible jokes and wordplay. A selection of the track listing, for your enjoyment:

1 Give Her My Budapest
3 Knife To A Gun Fight
4 In Russia, Phone Dials You
5 Kremlin With Anticipation
6 From Russia With Shove
10 Man, a Plan, a Code, Dubai
11 Love the Glove
12 Express Elevator
13 Mission Impersonatable
14 Moreau Trouble Than She's Worth
15 Out For a Run
16 Eye of the Wistrom
17 Mood India
18 Mumbai's the Word
19 Launch is On Hendricks
20 World's Worst Parking Valet
21 Putting the Miss In Mission

It's even funnier if you've seen the movie, and know which scenes they refer to. :)

...hi, welcome to my brain right now. It has apparently decided to get obsessed with spy things again, and has been (a) re-reading (and compulsively editing) my senior thesis on science fiction in spy films/TV, (b) going to seen M:I4 four times in theaters, (c) watching all the rest of the Mission: Impossible movies possibly also multiple times, I admit nothing (d) watching the old Mission: Impossible TV show (which I have discovered is enormous amounts of fun, and not dated much at all, because the screenwriters were apparently fellow fans of David Maurer's The Big Con, and the characters basically pull off an awesome con job/heist every episode), (e) thinking about buying soundtracks for various spy films on Amazon, and (f) adding any spy films that weren't already on my Netflix queue to my Netflix queue -- at least, as many as I can fit before it hits 500 again, which is sadly only about 15 more, and (g) trying to telepathically make someone write good Ethan/Brandt fic.

I am also writing up my thoughts on the Mission: Impossible films, and trying to resist the urge to edit my thesis into something the internet might read and I might not be ashamed of, and posting it. Because no one wants to read that, I don't think, whereas I am a giant nerd who is barely resisting telling you all the origin of the quote in the subject line.
