First things first, I went to see Prometheus this weekend and it was so good! When I first saw the previews, I wasn't enthused. The story really wasn't an original one where sci fi is concerned. But then, I noticed who was in the movie, including Idris Elba, Charlize Theron, Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender. You know, really good actors. So I decided to give it a chance. And, just in case I didn't like it, I'd planned to do a 2-for-1 to see Pixar's Brave (which was also cute, by the way).
But I actually really enjoyed it. The storyline was pretty basic science fiction, but the acting and the special effects were great! There were some twists that were damn good, too! I really enjoyed it all the up to the end, where it got a bit crazy. At the end, I just felt like the writers/directors couldn't help themselves and just threw up science fiction shit that wasn't really necessary. I kind of know why, now, but I don't want to say because it'd kind of be a spoiler. But still a really great movie rec'd for sci fi fans.
Secondly, why did none of you ever recommend I watch Supernatural? I know for a fact
firefox1490 watches it and I assume more of you do, too, simply because it's huge in fanfiction. And it's been on for years and no one told me I'd like it! Well, now I'm watching it and I love it. I just finished season 2 today, plan to start season 3 tonight and continue my Supernatural marathoning for...until I catch up.
Do y'all know how hard it is to ignore fanfiction and youtube videos because you know they would spoil the other seasons? It is SO hard. I keep failing and getting upset with myself. Oh, also, being a new fan, I learned something surprised while watching one of these youtube videos: Sam/Jared is the one people fangirl over??? Is this true? I'm confused because Dean/Jensen is so much more attractive, imo. Someone please explain this to me!
