River/Connor smackdown!

Ok, not really, but wouldn't it be cool?

Probably you guys know this already because you're this freakish hive mind with super sonic powers, but I'm excited about it anyway. Even if you have already done your stinger waggling bee dances of buzz over it, or whatever. You bunch of weirdos.


A pilot for a show called The Sarah Connor Chronicles, or something else lame and long like that, has been filmed. It's about Sarah and John Connor, set after Terminator 2. Which I think might be among my top ten movies of all time. (Or at least the top ten movies containing Arnie; and a skinny emo-y boy with a squeaky voice who I always thought was actually quite good for the role but now actually also think is kinda pretty [to-my-everlasting-shame] and would love to see having boysex with Connor Connor [*cough* ros_fod who-won't-write-it]; and also containing Catherine with machine-guns-and-stuff instead of those frilly 80s dresses she used to wear for Ron Perlman.)

Anyway, so Sarah and John Connor on the run from terminators, one of whom is played by none other than that badly accented ballerina from Waiting In The Wings, otherwise known as River Tam, otherwise known as really really hot when she does her ballet-moves-of-murderous-intent. OR tries to kill you with her brain. Am I the only one doing the stinger waggling dance of GLEE over this? Anyone? Bee-friends? Summer Glau going "I'll be back" on your ass? The way she moves fulfills a need in me, the need for beauty I have in my life. Her ankles and the bend at her waist fulfill it. Also the flesh of cumcumbers, that's a fragment of beauty I could not live without. But what I'm saying is I want to see River Tam kill lots and lots of things. With her ankles. And the dimples at her shoulder-tips. The top part where the clavicle touches the scapula. That part.

I've seen the John Connor (Thomas Dekker) in several things but I really mourn the lack of Edward Furlong, even though he's strange and kind of fugly now and also got arrested for freeing lobsters (true story). I also mourn the lack of VK even though he never had anything to do with it in the first place. I also mourn the lack of Harry/Draco squee from the stinger waggling dances of my flist because I can't *help* it; I mourn my lack of sense-making regarding them.

The woman playing Sarah Connor is Lena Headey, who was the queen in 300. And Olga from Onegin, not that anyone watches Liv Tyler's lips and Ralph-Fiennes-in-a-corset over and over again except me. She was a great character in 300, but I don't see Sarah Connor in her. If I had to pick one actress on the market today to play that character it would be Katee Sackhoff. It's the blonde hair and the Starbuckyness of her, and also the fact that she is the hotest hot to ever hot since man invented the Equator. Which actually man didn't but work with me here.

As far as Mommy!Connor goes I mourn the loss of Catherine with machine-guns-n-stuff and also T-1!Sarah's rhinestones, and that other fic Fod will never write which is John Connor/Reese, which we all know has nothing to do with Sarah Connor other than that whole incest issue for which I also mourn the lack, because I am dirty sick and wrong, although I mourn no lack of that among the stinger wagglers because you have it in spades or combs or wharever in fact you keep it. In fact you all frighten me. Freaks. I love you so, so much. Thank you for feeling with me over my sad tale of robbery and loss. And with the chimp sex and horror horse stories? That is why I keep you around. In case you were wondering.

From what I can tell this show got picked up, but it's by Fox so I hope Englishmen come on horses and hunt it down if it is any kind of good and gets dropped. I wish, oh I wish, I had a laptop. I've decided that's why I am rambling here today. Now buzz away young friends and write me Buffy/Faith STAT.
