1) Do any of you cool kids use something to save the place you got to on your friends list the night before? I'm always hunting for where I've read up to and figured there must be some kind of Firefox add-on. Surely? I was looking at permanent tabs, does anyone use this? I'm just concerned that it still won't hold my place, as soon as I click 'next twenty entries' it'll skip way forward won't it? Seeing as the url would be like "skip=40" when I left it, wouldn't it just remember that url and I'd be on "skip=40" the next day, with loads of missed posts in between? Am I even making sense? D: HALP!

tundraeternal and I had a very long and meaningful discussion about the possibility of Nathan Fillion appearing in a live action Thundercats movie. The conversation entertained me far too much to be left buried in the comments for my last post, so here it is in all it's glory. The original is
here. Edited slightly for your reading pleasure. If any of you have cosplayed as Thundercats characters and shared your photos on the internet, there's a very real possibility that I may have mocked you quite horribly. I do apologise.
tundraeternal: I watched an episode of Castle the other day when they were showing it in the laundromat, as I was folding. It was, I hate to say, painfully terrible. Mr. Fillion was adorable, but the dialogue: painfully terrible.
o_deanna: Argh, poor Castle. Actually, I might watch it with the sound on mute. Nathan is such a loveable lion faced man. He would've been ideal for a live action Thundercats film. ♥
tundraeternal: Awwww, he IS lion-faced! That would be so adorable! I think the time is ripe for a Thundercats film! We should start a viral campaign for it.
o_deanna: I'm in! This Thundercats neglect must end! I might draw Thundercat!Nathan later. Do you think he would have to be Lion-O? I never liked him much. I had little-girl-style hots for Tygra though. Nathan for Tygra! I didn't understand that Panthro was a panther, I thought he was a gargoyle (I know, I know! I am laughing so much right now, pfft).
tundraeternal: Aww, I think MalNathan would make a GOOD Lion-O! He's so... leadery! And so good at being slightly clueless like all good cartoon heroes! I do not sit in judgement on your thoughts about Panthro. He would've made a great gargoyle. Also, i always thought Lion-O's name was Lionel, and they were just stressing it funny! Lindsey has just provided input that Hugh Jackman should be in it. I have revised my opinion, and now believe that Huuuuuuuuuuuge Ackman should be Lion-O, and Nathan should be Tygra! Totally smexy!
tundraeternal: PS I have a present for you! How's your Spanish?
http://www.thundercatsperu.com/ o_deanna: "Diane, get me Hugh Jackman's agent on the phone, pronto. I want him as the lead." My Spanish will overcome all odds for a site called thundercatsperu.com"
o_deanna: 'POSIBLES THUNDERCATS' OMG I am dying. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.
o_deanna: I'm on the point of sending this to Spielberg, but I thought I'd better run it past you first, when you get home from work, obviously. This is how I envisage the character.
Let me know what you think.
o_deanna: PS. Nathan is on board. I've just phoned him.
tundraeternal: You are my favorite ever. I AM DYING TO SEE THE PICTURE!
o_deanna: It might not be quite what you expect! I was running a bath and stopped it just to make this. I'm laughing quite a lot and have been for about 15 minutes now.
tundraeternal: Why is he apparently in the middle of one of those laser-obstacle courses you see in the movies, where the hero has to do like eighty backflips to get through?
o_deanna: Seriously, I have no idea. I laughed so much when I found the original photo, I love that there's a bike in the background. Honestly, it's the best headswap I've ever done...it's pretty much the only proper headswap I've done, so it's up there by default, hahahaha! Jim pointed out that Nathan looks just slightly embarrassed by his spandex.
tundraeternal: It is vry srsly impressive. I couldn't even tell it was fake at first! Then i realized it was Mr. Fillion. He has no reason to be embarrassed by the spandex! He looks bee-yoo-tee-ful!
o_deanna: I think the tattoos add a touch of class. As does the grease stain.
tundraeternal: My favorite is the no-run patches on the pantyhose he just bought at the drugstore!!
o_deanna: Had/has Lindsey seen the fanmade trailer on the site from Peru? I WANT TO SEE THIS FILM SO BAD! It's just...beyond amazing. Hugh Jackman! I can't even understand how they've managed to do this! I've been trying to spot the films they've used. :-O

o_deanna: I'm sorry to spam you, I just can't help myself, I am far too amused by all this. I might have to make a post about it later on *wipes away tears*
Panthro is just fantastic here. "Dude, I ain't using no blue paint on this temple of a body! Word."
tundraeternal: Omg isn't that STUNNING?!? Troy + Xmen + that one about the spy kids (Spy Kids?) + isn't that the chick from Farscape + i have no idea where Panthro came from, i didn't recognize his scenes at all. LOVE!!! Ohhhhhh dear, i have also been looking at many Thundercats pics on Google. It makes me sad when people cosplay who should NOT be wearing the outfits they are in. Eek, my eyes!
o_deanna: "that one about the spy kids (Spy Kids?)" - You kill me. Ooh, well spotted! I think the Panthro stuff is Vin Diesel in one of the Riddick films. I may have mis-remembered this, however, from a phone conversation a few hours ago. I know! I am blinded by bulges! Except by the kid in the first photo, bless him. Young man, socks are your friends!
tundraeternal: *extreme sniggering*
o_deanna: The buff guy in the second photo has obviously dragged all his friends to the convention.
"We're going as The Thundercats."
"Thunder-whats-now? Do we have to?"
"Yus! See my muscles ye mighty and despair! I was born for the role of Lion-O, now is my time to shine!"
tundraeternal: Hahahahahhahahah! SO TRUE!!
3) I've loved this video for ages, I should've posted it before now. It makes me so happy. I'm sure it will make you happy too.
