Here's where my GIFs will go for the challenge!!

I will separate them in each post so it will be easier to tell which is for what emotion and such.

So, just for fun, I want to give a low down on all of these to kind of explain why I chose the ones I did! I hope this is ok!

Excitement!

I chose this GIF because, really, when have you ever seen someone more excited? I love the movie Elf and Will Ferrell and I figure Orange is a good color because although it's not as bright as yellow, it still has a vibrantness to it mixed with some earthy colors to show the natural emotion.

Happiness!

I actually really liked this one. Pretty girl, pretty light coming in from the background and also her expression is so innocent but so real and says a lot. I think it could also go for love, but even though you think of happy as a huge smile and maybe a silly one at that, I felt this one showed true happiness and through feeling, not just a fake smile. This one showed true emotion to me.

Sadness!

No words are really needed, are they? This is only the saddest point in the Lilo & Stitch movie when he was deserted by Lilo. I about cried myself (but I'm tougher than that). Anyways, the sad pouty lip mixed with the pouring rain signifies sadness in more than one way to me.

Obviously blue is the color for sadness. Rain is blue, Stitch is blue, and he's got the blues! What other color could possibly represent this GIF?

Sexy!

"Girl look at that body!! I WORK OUT!" I mean, come on! Meghan Fox is so beautiful. As the GIF goes up her body you're thinking "sexy" right? But it reaches her face and the expression has fierce written all over it. This is not a "cute" picture, this is a sexy picture and a damn fine one at that! This makes me happy I like women!

Red is an immediate choice of color for me. When you think "sexy" you think "on fire!!!" Meghan Fox is completely sexy and on fire!

Anger!

This showed the epitome of anger. You don't know what she's angry about, hell she could be yelling for no reason, but she's angry nonetheless and you can sure tell! There is a lot of genuine anger in this shot and that's what drew me to it for this emotion.

I think the main color identification for anger is red. Red signifies heat or being heated which is what happens when you are angry.

[Jonathan Penner]

Disgust!

Not only does he look disgusted, but Clint Eastwood is also a disgusting looking old man! I mean, you can literally see the flesh decroding right off of his face as the GIF moves.

When I think disgusting, I think of things like dirt, worms, slimy things, bacon grease, POOP...all of which are brown (give or take on the poop). I identify brown with gross things so that is why I chose that color.

[Jonathan Penner]

Thinking!

The main thing that really caught me about this GIF is not just the fact he has his hand like that and his fingers are moving in thought, but his eyes are moving back and forth. It kind of reminds me of myself in this game-- he's very analytical, looking at other things and thinking on them. Deep in thought is what it seems like to me.

I chose green because green is kind of my color for knowledge. I feel it's a smart color and one I like to identify myself with.

[Jonathan Penner]

Evil!

One of the most evil and vile characters in a children's book (in my opinion), THE GRINCH! This is the disgusting smile he gave before executing his plan and this smile has evil written all over it.

Although Green might be a good color choice, when I think of evil, I think "black heart". The Grinch definitely had a heart made of coal and he tried to ruin Christmas. Also, black is stated to be "lack of color" people identify evil with "lack of a soul" or dark which is black in my eyes. I thought the color fit perfectly.

Tie Breaker:



Sleepy!

I wasn't sure how strong this was so I'm making it my tie breaker, but I think it's cute!

Who doesn't like Boo from Monster's Incorporated? Everyone has to love this little one! In this GIF she's even cuter because all kmids are cute when they're tired. They act loopy, they look loopy and all around it is just funny to watch them slowly fall asleep, let's admit. So I picked this one for tired because it also has a cuteness factor that is sure to catch your eye!

I picked aqua as the color (because I'm too lazy to get an actual baby blue). But a light blue reminds me of the clouds and the sky and I picture that when I'm tired and you bounce sheep and they have a nice baby blue sky behind them. Or when you go outside and take a nap in the sun at the park or something. Baby blue just seems a very dreamy color to me and I thought it fit nicely.
