Joss Whedon is a genius at using the paranormal as a metaphor to explore the shit regular RL people go through, and doing it wittily. The show can be extremely serious, but it has a dose of self-awareness too, frequently poking fun at itself - which helps it from getting too pompous.

WORD. JOSS IS THE GENIUS. THE END.

And he's a total fanboy, which makes me love him even more. :D

If you want them, your seven are: amy winehouse, doomed romance, james/lily/snape=afterlife ot3, pushing daisies, rainy days, spuffy, strawberries.

I agree with everything you said about Luna! She's got to be one of the best fictional characters ever created.

And chocolate's like...the ultimate drug. Seriously. :P

And you're making me want to watch Buffy now. It sounds really amazing.

She really is - I've never seen another character quite like her. :)

And you totally need to watch Buffy! Loads of angst, silliness, pretty people, and fanservice-y subtext of all kinds. :D

If you want them, your seven are: harry/anyone but ginny, his dark materials, jim/pam, mythology, ron/luna, veronica mars, and wicked. :)

HA. I was so the same way about dinosaurs! I read Jurassic Park before I ever saw the movie, so those names were engrained in my head. I even named my old computer Compy, the nick for Procompsognathus. Hee.

That is amazing. Hee. :D

If you want them, your seven are: anakin skywalker, batman begins, derek reese, farscape, kyle reese, narnia, and the x-files.

I was the same way about Terminator - I didn't expect more than a generally enjoyable action flick that didn't linger in my head too long after I took it out of the DVD player.

If you love temporal wonkiness, it only gets better in T2. :P

Miss your A/P fics BTW. ;)

Thanks. :) There are a couple of semi-ambitious AUs I've been tinkering around with for a while; I'm hoping to have something postable soon. I wouldn't mind having a beta for them, if you're interested...

And if you want your seven, they are: alias, george lucas, hayden christensen, heroes, moulin rouge, padme amidala, xander/cordelia. :)

First, good news! :) Second, thanks for proposing but... you have to know English is not my native language unfortunately...

And if you want your seven, they are: alias, george lucas, hayden christensen, heroes, moulin rouge, padme amidala, xander/cordelia. :)

Oh, some are tough. I'll see what I can do. ;)

I would never have known if you hadn't said anything - your English is excellent. :) And there are other things to beta in a story besides grammar/spelling (which I nitpick myself on pretty heavily anyway ;)), but I understand if you're not comfortable.

Yayyyyyyy. I LOVB YOUR ANSWERS. And I pretty much agree completely with most of it, especially Anakin/Padme (I'm a bigger fan of T2 than the first film).
