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?

I deleted the questions I couldn't answer, mostly due to the fact that I had no idea what you were talking about. *g*

Where did the term whinging come from?
How bout the term pressies?

I alsways consider these terms British- but I have no idea from whence they came.

Does DB's acting (in say, Bones) still bother people sometimes?
DB could pick his nose for an hour and I'd be riveted. Yuck, I know. Personally, I like him better when he's quieter- less manic...but, no, he doesn't bother me- when his acting is too much I distract myself with the pretty.

Does anyone wished DB shaved his face closer these days (on Bones)?
No. His face is always perfect...even without a baby-bottom shave.

Does anyone not think they fucked with Cordy's character in AtS S3?
I felt bad for Cordy...I loved her character (although upon rewatching the series I don't think CC was the world's greatest actress) and I do think they frigged with a good thing thereby distorting her character until she was practically unrecognizable. Which is why "You're Welcome" was so, so sad.

Do you guys like Andy Hallett?
A little AH goes a long way.

Do you guys like Stephanie Romanov?
Yes. You mean as Lilah, right? Yes.

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?
Sometiems I start at the beginning of a season and watch every epsiode. I love doing that. If I am in need of a B/A fic...I skip to all my favourite bits (this is one of the best things about DVDs, imo.) I can go for long periods of time and not watch- but when the urge strikes- look out. And if [livejournal.com profile] germaine_pet and I happen to be together- we watch Spike-centric episodes. Because she just makes fun of me and my B/A love and the their love theme. Bitch.

Why can't I get a job?
Do you want a job?

What ep of anything Whedonverse did you not like much at first, but gained respect for later?
Truthfully, I love every episode. Although I wasn't 100% sold on Cordy as divine light. *shudders*

Is there one you liked at first but not so much now?
No....I like them all. I always see new stuff when I rewatch.

Are there characters you like better in fanfic than on the actual screen?
I am a character whore. Even the characters I don't like- Kennedy, say- has his or her merits.

Why does everyone hate Waiting In The Wings?
Does everyone hate it? I thought C/A shippers were over the moon about it?

Am I the only one who doesn't think Angel making goofy faces at baby!Connor was out of character and stupid?
I hate goofy!Angel.

Am I the only one who actually kinda likes Justine (as a character)?
I liked her. Poor needy, duped Justine. And who saw Wes keeping her in a closet coming? Wow! Go Wes!

I think they're British too.

He does have a nice nose. But yeah, it's the manic that at times sets me on edge.

I felt bad for Cordy...I loved her character (although upon rewatching the series I don't think CC was the world's greatest actress) and I do think they frigged with a good thing thereby distorting her character until she was practically unrecognizable. Which is why "You're Welcome" was so, so sad.

Because she was herself again in YW. I love YW. I think CC is a great comic actress. She's not so good with the high drama.

A little AH goes a long way.

How politic you are.

Sometiems I start at the beginning of a season and watch every epsiode. I love doing that. If I am in need of a B/A fic...I skip to all my favourite bits (this is one of the best things about DVDs, imo.) I can go for long periods of time and not watch- but when the urge strikes- look out. And if [info]germaine_pet and I happen to be together- we watch Spike-centric episodes. Because she just makes fun of me and my B/A love and the their love theme. Bitch.

So far I've really only rewatched the whole series. But I have rewatched a single ep or two so maybe I'll do that in the future. Oh, Lynne. Want me to beat her up for us?

Do you want a job?
No. But I really really really need one.

I am a character whore. Even the characters I don't like- Kennedy, say- has his or her merits.
I like Kennedy better in fanfic, because she annoys me onscreen. But I don't hate her. I do hate Andrew and Joyce, though. I really do.

Does everyone hate it? I thought C/A shippers were over the moon about it?
Lynne said once it's a very unpopular ep that everyone likes to rag on. I don't know; I've seen bunches of people call it schlock, but in this post it's about half and half.

I hate goofy!Angel.
I actually like it when there's reason. Which for a good part of S3, there wasn't, and it drove me crackers, but in this instance--I think it was so perfect.
