Halloween Costume Contest Over
(click for full size)
Think you have the most original costume of the year? Nope, you lose to this girl, acting out one of the more memorable scenes from Ace Ventura. After watching cosplay for years, I’m beginning to realize that every character played by a man is almost always cooler when played by a woman. This is not true the other way around, but perhaps that’s just a byproduct of my orientation, I don’t know.
Anyway, look out for this girl at your neighborhood parties. When not in that specific pose, she may be harder to place as someone other than “Ballerina who is still half in her pajamas.”
I still think that nothing can beat dressing up as Tobias from Arrested Development as a member from the Blue Man Group.
I’m doing Miami Vice this year. Got the white suit, pastel shirt, sock-less loafers, the whole thing. Can’t wait for NYCC. Last year I was Ultimate Warrior and had 100 people take pictures with me. It was a blast.
