Giving it away....
I'm feeling uncannily generous.
THIS IS ONLY FOR PHILIPPINE-BASED ARASHI FANS. OR JE FANS, who the hell cares. (I don't.)
But anyone who has the time (and proper slackitude) can go ahead and answer the Q's. lolz. I'd love you for that.
I am giving away a copy of POPOLO November 2008 issue. Yes. Giving away. As in, free. Even the shipping, I'll shoulder it. No catch, no strings. You don't even have to be in my flist to get it. (Although won't it be great if Pinoys from my flist do!?)
The ONLY THING you gotta do is answer some questions, mostly related to my own interest because uhm, I am selfish like that. (tayuri called me a 'jerk' and I try not to live below expectations. *grinz*) Also, this is in a way, another crazy way for you guys to get to know me a bit more. (Fun, eh? It's like a meme, except, I don't have to tag anyone! mwaahahah!)
ON SECOND THOUGHT. Other (non-Philippine-based) fans can answer too, and Christmas is just around the corner so.....who the hell knows. I still might be in a festive mood by then!!
And just in case you're wondering why I have an extra, it's because I bought two copies, thinking of giving the other one to a friend on LJ and it turns out she already has a copy. *smattering of curses and choice words* So yeah.
EDIT: The mag is the one on this post scanned by CK. (F-locked comm, btw) And in this pic, the pink one, just above TV Navi-Ohno's face and on the left of the white Potato.
STOP!!! THIS IS OFFICIALLY CLOSED NOW. There are already 10 who answered, including 4 others who are non-Pinas-based. XDD So...I really don't think I'd have much time going through so many entries, so I'll stop with the ten. Will get to it tonight, after I've come home from watching Max Payne. lolz.
Type in your answers by commenting. I'll let this run until Saturday night so...according to my clock, it is Friday, 12 noon. There's 36 hours?? Hmmm...
No, you don't have to get everything right. (although I think Internet would work? I mean, Google.)
Questions;
1. I harbor a deep hankering for Jensen Ackles since I saw him on the now-defunct series Dark Angel as the rogue Alec. What is his designation??
2. Before Jensen appeared as Alec on Season 2 Dark Angel, he appeared in another role in Season 1. What is the character's name?
3. In The Vampire Chronicles, impoverished noble Lestat de Lioncourt fled the French countryside to be a stage actor in Paris. What stage name did he adapt?
4. With reference to the previous question, who is the Queen of the Damned?
5. In The Lord of the Rings lore, we first meet Aragorn as the less-than-noble Ranger. The Rangers of the North are known by a more 'noble' name, signifying their lineage. Literally translating to "Men of the West", what is this name?
6. JRR Tolkien is friends with another major literary figure. Many similarities can be seen from their most famous novels. Who is he??
7. The young actress in Bara no nai Hanaya (won't name her *is evil*) who played Katori Shingo's daughter also plays another JE boy's younger sister in WHICH drama?
8. Trick question. She stalked (and broke pots and plates) Ariake Koichi in one drama, and got beaten and roughed up by Taisuke in another. (And I still don't like her.)
9. Name Ikuta Toma's three husbands. (naughty!!)
10. Who played the young Tony Leung in Infernal Affairs?
11. In Buffy, the Vampire Slayer, name the suburb where Hellmouth is located. Also the locale of the series, where the characters live.
12. Angel is a vampire. What does he have that other bloodsuckers don't?
13. In Smallville, what element can repel Kryptonite?
14. In '24', who's my 2nd favorite character? (Haha! Of course, you won't know!) Ok, it's Tony Almeida. Question: Who is his wife in the series?
15. In Prisonbreak, what's the name of the actual Illinois prison where the first season was shot?
16. Before Prisonbreak, Wentworth Miller co-starred with dinosaurs in what film?
17. What's my Ohno-fetish? (a giveaway to those who read my spazzing)
18. What's the initial working title of Nino's movie before it became known as "Letters of Iwo Jima"?
19. Uhm. What's the name of the blue diamond necklace of Rose in Titanic?
20. What is Himura Kenshin's swordsmanship style?
21. Do you think I like Mary Jane Watson of Spiderman?????? (yes, this counts)
22. What about Lana Lang of Smallville?
23. Someone in V6 ought to just shut his mouth during their songs and JUST LOOK HOT. That's my opinion. Who do you think it is??
24. He played a revolutionary leader in The Motorcycle Diaries, a 'lustful' priest in The Crime of Padre Amaro and a budding man in Y Tu Mama Tambien. Who is he?
25. Three of Westlife's members hailed from this Irish county. Where is it?
26. Who ranks 5th on my Arashi list? (I hate ranking, but my arm got twisted so I had to. But really, I love them all!)
27. Before the Man-Elf union that is Aragorn and Arwen, there was who-and-who from Silmarillion??
28. What's my favorite 'fandom' forum?
29. There are two people I officially call as translating demons. Who is the first one, whom I affectionately refer to as the 'translating Maou'? Username or nickname would do.
30. There is someone in NEWS whom I want to be my little brother because I find him so squishy. Who is he?
31. Jared Padalecki plays Sam Winchester, brother of Dean Winchester in Supernatural. Before Supernatural, he also played a character named Dean. In what TV series???
32. Gilmore Girls' Rory. Gossip Girls' Serena. Ugly Betty's...err Betty. In what film are these three appearing together? (two movies already but same title basically, so.)
33. Guess my fave guy in Kanjani8. (there are two, actually, so any of the two would do.)
34. What agency does Jack Bauer work in?
35. What's my favorite color? (haha!! I'm running out of questions. honestly.)
OK. That's enough. *screeches to a halt*
If one or two people answer these, then I'd be really all fuzzy and warm with happiness. XDDD
If you're Philippine-based, indicate it in your post. Thanks!!!!
