you're halfway here, but don't take too long
first off, TYSM!!!! to everyone who sent me a snowflake. also anyone who i missed in snowflake sending, holy crap i'm sorry!~ lemme know an i can still hook you up <3.
this is a teevee post because i've been kinda emo lately which means i watched a lot of teevee. spoilers under cuts!
I didn't cry, but for the record, it was close. Zach Gilford killed it. When he was all I put all my hate on him, I totally teared up and wanted to hug him. Also, as a teenage girl, so much word to Julie having absolutely no idea what to do. I ship them so hard, I am seriously going to cry if/when they break up.
Matt seriously makes me sad. He's just so fucked up, and I'm really really worried he's gonna like, join the army. *matthugs*
(Also, what a waste of Lyla! D:)
What kind of lameass power is heart anyway? Wilson's lameass power, that's what. <3
I haven't watched House in a really, really long time, but I'm always a sucker for Wilson and I am so glad I tuned in, holy crap. It was everything I ever liked about House (except Cuddy, she kinda sucked, unprofessionalism ftl) and WILSON <333333 I LOVE THAT MAN SFM. Josh Malina was an ass. D:
Wilson is such an awesome filter to view the show through: they should do this four times a season, swear to god. (Though, I gotta say-- as the show gets worse, they bring Wilson in to do more stuff. Like, first season, where House was interesting and less of an asshole, v. little Wilson, but he was awesome; as House-the-show gets worse and worse and worse, we get whole episodes from Wilson's pov.)
I love how House is actually a person. <3 Not just every asshole thing the writers could think of to shove at him. I am also holding out for House to end like Boston Legal: there is pretty much nowhere else they can go, I gotta say.
Anyway I will watch the next episode, because that is supposed to be Wilson-centric, and then we will see.
This was fun. Caffrey could not be less pretty, omfg. The entire case delighted me, but Peter, seriously? Elizabeth ships the ot3 so hard, she makes me so happy. Show needs moar Elizabeth! Elizabeth/Mozzie interaction would send me into paroxyms of joy.
Idk, Peter seemed a little off through this entire episode. I think I just want him to trust Neal more.
Twist at the end I am not really buying, but I reserve judgement until next year. I think it is probably a bad sign for the show that I really didn't care? :/
So I was in the Warehouse a couple days ago, and Tin Man was $9.99 and I remembered having seen some interesting fic last year, and the concept is pretty cool, and I <3 Oz (L. Frank Baum is awesome), so I thought, why not, and now I own it.
Yesterday, I killed TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SEVEN MINUTES OF MY LIFE watching it. TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY SEVEN MINUTES THAT I WILL NEVER GET BACK. DDDDD:
It was so bad, guys. SO BAD. Zooey Deschanel just did not act at all. The plot was so full of holes it might as well have been a sieve. It was worse than the ORI STORYLINE in SG-1, and that storyline sucks. Holy crap, I don't even. SO BAD.
The title doesn't even make sense! The Tin Man doesn't do very much! There are two reasons you name something after a character: one, they're your protagonist; two, they are the keystone of the plot. NEITHER OF THESE WERE TRUE. I was excited bc Cain was the only character I found interesting (largely 'cause he wasn't embroiled in the ROYAL FAMILY CLUSTERFUCK) so I thought he'd be like, maybe central in the latter parts? NO SUCH LUCK.
Though Cain was kinda awesome-- I was thinking Nate&Eliot's sekrit lovechild, because like Eliot, Cain employs violence as his first solution for anything, and like Nate, he thinks he is in charge of his merry band of misfits. Also his flirting w/ Glitch = ONLY HIGH POINT. His backstory was also seriously fucked up and eerie.
I also liked the setting-- more for the idea than the actual execution, but the munchkins were crazy-awesome, and I loved the broken yellow brick road. The first part is definitely the best, (though let's be honest, best does not by any means actually equal good) mostly because of the way the whole set is totally alien and interesting and cool. (Badly executed, because this is Sci Fi channel, but you know.)
The thing about Tin Man, I think, is that the remake parts are actually genuinely very interesting-- Glitch with his actually missing brain, the Lions who are Viewers, Cain LOCKED IN AN IRON SUIT (though, logistics-- how would you eat/excrete?), but when they try and link it back to the first story, to Dorothy Gale, that's when it just completely falls apart and sucks balls. The bits where they twistedly retell the story-- they're all good: not extraordinarily amazing, but not as terrible as Azkadellia shoving monkeybats out of her cleavage.
I hate princesses as a trope, anyway; the returning princess bit is such a freaking cop out omfgggg, and DG had a particularly stupid arc, wtffff the best thing about Dorothy (well one of many) was that she was just a normal kid who dealt with things by being practical and awesome. & like, seriously, wtf was the point of sending her away if it wasn't going to provide her with any kind of edge? They could have just hid her in a forest somewhere learning magic. Zooey is very pretty and I wanted to like her, I tried really really hard but by the third part I was hoping the entire royal family would just DIE THE FUCK OUT.
THE RHYMES SUCKED SO MUCH.
Azkadellia's entire arc was also stupid, ngl. Evil witch I get, but for srs, BAD EXECUTION, LAME IDEA, stupid, stupid costumes, STUPID MINIONS JFC. Just SO MUCH STUPIDITY. (Except Cain, he charmed me.)
THE ENTIRE THING WITH THE EMERALD. Naming her father Ahamo, wtf, you know teenage boys will watch this! I WANTED TO STAB HER MOTHER IN THE FACE. Seriously, kill the kid that's killed the other kid, if you know that it is going to grow up and kill half the freaking population. Everything to do with that family = grrrrrr.
Also the bb!lion would totally have lied and given the bad guy the self-destruct sequence, not the reverse sequence. Just saying. I <3 the bb!lion. (Also Raw was totally underused! He's got that cool dichotomy of being really physical-- or it's implied, anyway, 'cause he's a lion-- and being an emotional conduit. He could have you know. DONE STUFF.)
ANYWAY IT WAS BAD, DON'T WATCH IT. (or if you do, write me Cain & Glitch stuck in Kansas.)
