Questions Post #13


Do you think Wesley looks like Ed Exley, as played by Guy Pearce, in L.A. Confidential?
What's the thing in lj called, where a post looks like a white page with text, with just a few buttons at the top, and can you always get to that in anyone's journals, or is it only some journals?
Where did the term whinging come from?
How bout the term pressies?
Does DB's acting (in say, Bones) still bother people sometimes?
Does anyone wished DB shaved his face closer these days (on Bones)?
Does anyone not think they fucked with Cordy's character in AtS S3? Besides TKDad, I mean?
Do you guys like Andy Hallett?
Do you guys like Stephanie Romanov?
Has anyone written Cordy/loofah? Anyone?
Do you rewatch eps of BtVS/AtS? How do you do it? Do you just pick out one you liked? Pick out a couple you liked? Watch an arc you liked? Fastforward to the good parts? Rewatch a whole season? Rewatch certain parts for fanfic writing purposes?
How do you make katsu don?
Why can't I get a job?
What ep of anything Whedonverse did you not like much at first, but gained respect for later?
Is there one you liked at first but not so much now?
Are there characters you like better in fanfic than on the actual screen?
Why is Kara Thrace such a badass?
How could that AoQ guy finally give a "SUPERLATIVE" (yeah, all caps) rating to my least favorite ep in all 7 seasons of BtVS?
Is there really any episode worse than "Provider"?
Does anyone just think "ARCHIE KENNEDY!!!!" every time they see Lee Adama?
Why does everyone hate Waiting In The Wings?
Am I the only one who doesn't think Angel making goofy faces at baby!Connor was out of character and stupid?
Am I the only one who actually kinda likes Justine (as a character)?
Okay, I'm done.

I can't answer them all, but I can opine about a few!

I think Angel's love for baby Connor was so all-encompassing that making goofy faces was wayyy in character.
I don't think "ARCHIE KENNEDY" when I see Lee Adama, but I didn't watch HH.
I kinda liked Justine as a character. I understood her anyway. The actress had great voice.
"Provider" was pretty bad, but so was "She."
What was your least favorite episode of S7 Buffy? I couldn't stand "Killer in Me."
Whedonverse episode I used to like but not so much as I used to: "Entropy."
Whedonverse episode I didn't like so much but do now: "Storyteller."
I watch entire seasons, usually, from beginning to end, sometimes for vidding purposes, sometimes just because I want to.
I don't think they fucked with Cordy's character in S3 per se. I think they fucked with her character in S4. S3? I could have explained away her arc from "Birthday" to "Tomorrow" as a brilliant illo of the fatal flaw of hubris. S4? There was no explaining. None.
I like Andy Hallett as Lorne, could care less about Andy Hallett as Andy Hallett.
I like Stephanie Romanov as Lilah, could care less about Stephanie Romanov as Stephanie Romanov.
I don't mind DB's 5 o'clock shadow on Bones; I just wish the show were a little more interesting.
Even when DB's acting resembled a log with teeth, I didn't mind. However, he's *wayyyy wayyyy wayyyy* better than he used to be. He's like James Garner to me now.
I don't know how to make the k thing. I don't know about Cordy/loofah, but it sounds kinda irritating to the skin. I don't know why you can't get a job. What do you want to do?
I loved "Waiting in the Wings." It was funny and heartbreaking.
"Whinge" Britspeak for whine? I've always thought so anyway.
"Pressies," "ficcies," anything with an "ies" diminution? I hate that.

umm..

I don't think "ARCHIE KENNEDY" when I see Lee Adama, but I didn't watch HH. Horatio Hornblower ROCKS MY SOCKS! And the character Jamie Bamber plays is so . . . so fanboy.

I kinda liked Justine as a character. I understood her anyway. The actress had great voice. I actually think the actress sucked. A lot. And the way her whole character was played out was lame. But the ideas behind her character were badass, imo, in the way they related to *everyone* who's lives she touched--especially Wesley.

"Provider" was pretty bad, but so was "She." "She" was lame, but it didn't seem to fuck with character as much as "Provider". Plus, "She" had the Angel and Wesley respective spaz dancing.

What was your least favorite episode of S7 Buffy? I couldn't stand "Killer in Me." It's not just my least favorite ep in S7, it's my least favorite ep in ALL of BtVS (but it doesn't take the cake on "Provider"). It's "Selfless". One day, I need to do a big ole rant about my massive hatred for that ep, because most people seem to really like it.

I don't think they fucked with Cordy's character in S3 per se. I think they fucked with her character in S4. S3? I could have explained away her arc from "Birthday" to "Tomorrow" as a brilliant illo of the fatal flaw of hubris. S4? There was no explaining. None. I don't know what you mean by "brilliant illo". Or by that arc being about hubris? To me everything after "Billy" (though actually it started here and there before that) was some other person who no longer made snappish, witty, bitchy, selfish, unique, interesting, or uncliche statements. In S4, it gets explained by her being controlled by Jasmine. I find that explanation far easier to accept. Even if I hate the evil black dress.

Even when DB's acting resembled a log with teeth, I didn't mind. However, he's *wayyyy wayyyy wayyyy* better than he used to be. He's like James Garner to me now. He is very much better.

"Pressies," "ficcies," anything with an "ies" diminution? I hate that. Me too!
