Yay, I got my Comic Con registration!

I'm back! My brain finally recovered from the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition Allison gave me to practice on. OMG, this ep is truly the hardest thing I've ever captioned, and Ty's not even in it. Marlee Matlin filled in for Ty, and naturally Jack, her interpretor, is also present. If you've ever seen Marlee ( Read more... )

free stuff!, work, jlu, music

When's ComicCon again? And how are your TO plans coming up? Dude ..i'm not even aware of the TV shows now except for footy. My exercise shedule has taken over the TV primetime.

It's July 19-23. We're going on the 20th, I think. TO plans are vague, but we've got plane tickets & a room for the first 3 nights. I just have to send BF links & see what catches her interest.

I'll start one.

Oh, hey, did Jack do Marlee's West Wing eps? Because if so (or if it was similar), that is fast. She's an interesting choice to sub in for Ty. Cool.

I've got it on good geek authority that Flash is in just about every JLU ep, so I guess I should get all the DVDs someday. But feel free to confirm that for me as you pick them up for yourself :) Oh! I finally watched Great Brain Robbery and enjoyed it muchly, so thanks again for that.

I have been closely monitoring the Deadwood schedule and have an Outlook reminder set for a month from now to get HBO. And then to drop it after Gale's two eps, heh. What? I did the same with QaF and Showtime :)

Will probably come by later and snurch all the music. Thanks!

I haven't seen Marlee's WW eps, but he's been with her forever, so that was probably him. Those two are so adorable together, even though they're equally frustrating. She filled in on EMHE because the family has four blind members & a son who was born deaf. (I'm not sure if the ep aired yet; I couldn't find a press release for it.) I'm excited to see how it all turns out though :)

Flash is in most of the JLU eps. He flirts a lot with Wonder Woman (who's oblivious) & snarks on Bats... which makes me wonder if MR's really acting ;) "The Brave and the Bold" features just Flash & Green Lantern fighting the villains. I finally watched "Comfort & Joy." I bought the S2 DVDs, so I'll see if I can rip it & make a better quality file ( ... )

The Brave and the Bold sounds cool :) I really love Comfort & Joy. Fracking adorable. Maybe I'll pick up S1 next time I amazon.

When SPN first came on, I didn't care enough to keep it. Then my first DVD recorder (I have a Sony, now.) ruined several eps. So I have Faith on DVD, the last few reruns on TiVo, and some select eps downloaded from a flister to tide me over to September 5th.

I did see the Rosenbaum/Spacey pics! kwerkee posted some and linked to a few others. She posted one or two from the Dodger event, too. Also, check out rose_etta -- she was there, and posted several pics over several posts. Plus, Mike drew her a dual self-portrait that's too cute for words. It wasn't her first time stalking meeting him :)

Heh, wait till you see Flash's first encounter with Wonder Woman, or when he introduces her to iced mochas. I'll have to bring my JLU DVDs in case any creators/animators are at C-C.

I have almost all 44 (total) SV & SPN eps, but the quality's meh, so it's not worth tranferring to tape or DVD. (Seriously, KTLA needs to get a better antenna.) But I like the convenience of those eps being on TiVo, so I'm hesitant to delete them.

Ooh, I'll have to check out rose_etta's LJ soon. I swear, seeing all these pics of him this earlier in the summer is turning me into a 13-year-old girl. I can't help but giggle or squee whenever I see new pics :)

OK, isn't Lex played by Teh Spacey, whom we all know to be gay?
Yay, gay Lex!

If David Johansen is wearing fishnets, I hope they make a support version. Just sayin'...

Humid? Dude, I'm growing mushrooms in my couch cushions.
And my hair has just given up on resembling the stuff you usually see on a person's head. Bah.

Ha, yes!! But some people refuse to believe that Spacey's (probably) gay. Yeah, because he's such a manwhore, right? Anyway, I once dated a guy who boasted that Spacey hit on his sister in Vegas. I had to bite my lip to not say, "So 'Dude Looks Like a Lady' is her theme song?" Then again, there were all those rumors about Bosworth getting the role in Beyond the Sea due to, um, outside benefits. My brain refuses to imagine what those could be.

I used to think it would've been cool to see the Dolls in concert. And then I remembered that guys in pantyhose are gross, and I'm not a fan of getting dirty.

I've had the worst trouble with humidity since moving down here. I use so much more product in my hair than before, which is great if you enjoy that slightly greasy & weighed-down look ;)

Yeah... that's a bit TMI. *g*

Let's just leave it at, I have it on good authority that he is.
Two completely different gay men I know who are both peripherally in the 'biz'--heh-- have confirmed it. Mostly, I just think he's an incredible actor and I feel badly that he's being given so much crap in his position of director, or whatever, of The Old Vic in London.

Yeah, product and I do not get along once the humidity hits. And anything remotely scented is out of the question, since I'm allergic to bees. Gah. *g*

To paraphrase one of Mom's gay friends, "Until I see him getting it on with a woman in a public setting that's void of paparazzi & gossip hounds, he is GAY to me."

I've read that he's kinda running The Old Vic in a half-ass way, like he's rarely there. Or maybe he's getting so much hate because he's American?

I missed the BB special, but I'm not that shocked about the ones who made the cut. Jack probably didn't want to get anywhere near that house again. :)

Marcellas is my man, I just love him. That being said, is it wrong I don't want him to get in the house? I become super obsessed with this show when I am rooting for someone I really want to win.

I really wanted Jack to be there, but I like Nakomis so she'll fill the void. And I love Marcellas, too, but I'm afraid that if he & Janie both make it, they'll turn against each other. I kind of hope he doesn't get in because I love his online reports about the house. What I can't figure out is why I'm kind of rooting for Dana to get in. I hate the Mantroll!

I've been such a slacker, but I'll have to check out your Randy links soon. I love Boobs' pic! BTW, did you finish S2 yet? I still have to e-mail you about our boy swap ;)

bliss_ June 27 2006, 02:24:14 UTC
Dana is very entertaining, I can understand wanting her back in the house.

Marcellas won me over with those garden gnomes, what did he name his? Huck? Too cute either way. And, his socks and sandals...I just love him. *sighs*

I finished disc 2 of season 2 before I left. I have to catch up on OLTL and then back to the Smallville marathon I go.

I don't know if I will be able to get up to TO when you are there, so I brought Boobs your Joan dvds and a couple of other things to pass on to you. Just remind her to give them to you when you see her. :)

baby_sis June 27 2006, 02:51:09 UTC
I think it's Huck. I love Marcellas' attitude, even when he's being assy. He's fun & tells it like it is. Hmm, now I want him & Ivette in the house, so he can explain to her why the audience will still hate her ;) BTW, I've got last week's BB ep if you want it.

I'm behind on OLTL, too. I checked out DOOL on Friday, then forgot to watch it today. Instead, I tuned in for another one of Sonny's breakdowns on GH. Sometimes I really miss the old school doctors & nurses storylines.

Yay! I'll make sure I bring S4 & swap with Boobs. (Now I'll have a Wenty fix before S2 starts.) I just need to check one thing: you can watch DVD+R, right?

oooh, are you going all four days or just one? and if just one, which one? would love to meet up for a mo, if possible. :)

baby_sis June 27 2006, 02:55:18 UTC
Yay, we'll have to meet up! You get to pick the place, since last time we got lucky & saw Rosenbaum ;)

Fenwic's picking me up along the way, so we'll be there either Thursday or Friday. (She's waiting to hear what days she has off.) Are you going for all four days?

Reply

enkeli June 27 2006, 02:58:57 UTC
no.. probably only for one... most likely friday. if i go for more than one, it'll be friday and saturday.

ooh, and a fennie, too? how did i get so lucky!

we'll figure it all out, i'm sure. and fennie's got my mobile #. w00t!

baby_sis June 27 2006, 03:14:04 UTC
Heh, Fennie e-mailed me one day with, "So... Comic Con?" And that's all it took to convince me :)

Now we're waiting to find out which tv shows, films & actors will be there. Do they release that info close to the convention's start?
