Flist o flist!

I have a question for you! Which may or may not be born from my vague Balkanic annoyance with the Willian/Kate craze (not the actual people, but the craze, it has infected my television in a way that keeps baffling).

What makes a good fictional wedding?
I can think of some weddings I've read/watched, but generally they ended with ( Read more... )

and then fuck up a whole very important storyline by having the character omit a crucial "yes" in a crucial moment? WHY HBO WHY.

Oooh! I haven't had a chance to watch the whole thing through yet. Does this have to do with Dany, though? Because I heard some iffy stuff re: that. Hopefully I'll get to watch tomorrow.

Weddings! Favorite wedding ever: the one that just happened on Parks and Recreation. What should have been ridiculous and silly managed to be heartwarming and silly. I loved it.

I am also fond of Will and Elizabeth getting married in the middle of battle in whichever Pirates movie that is.

But other than that, yeah, I can't really think of one that works for me? I'll have to ponder this and then get back to you.

Yes, it does have to do with Dany. And they were doing so well too, up until the actual wedding scene. And and and, it's very frustrating, because I can very literally think of NO GOOD REASON for them to change her story like that. Except the one in my icon, I suppose ( ... )

Oh I'd forgotten about Will and Elizabeth. But yes, that was epic, especially some of Barbossa's dialouge. "Dearly beloved, we be gathered here today... to nail yer gizzard to the mast ye poxy cur ( ... )

Oh, I've no doubt she would prepare well. Oh she'd make a fake hypersecure wedding, then elope three weeks earlier with Dawnie and Clem as witnessess. Then they'd have the fake wedding, with the Wind Beneath My Wings and Spike's various poker acquaintances and they'd have great fun until, you know, Drusilla arrived with a swirling portal to hell or something.

I reckon they'd have to be quite cautious about the gift table as well. I'd expect a pretty large proportion of it to be cursed.

Also, have you read http://seasonal-spuffy.livejournal.com/449499.html#cutid1 ? It seems relevant to your imagination.

That was fun. Though slightly confusing in the middle. Still, got the love a flamethrower.
