CAROLINE!!! OMG!!!! SO EXCITED FOR A CAROLINE VID FROM YOU!!!!!!!!! WHEE!

ETA: I am so with you on True Blood. That show has just become so damn seedy and offensive and... just icky to me.

(P.S. At dinner the other night, one of my siblings brought up the show Speed Racer! I THOUGHT OF YOU! Hee. )

*blushing* Your enthusiasm and encouragement is very happy-making T! On the one hand, it's frustrating that I can only plan it out right now, and I can't actually start until I get the S2 DVDs, because boo for delayed gratification. OTOH, maybe that's good because it'll split up the planning and editing phases and not eat up so much of my time all at once? Either way, THANK YOU for the excitement. I may be calling on you for some beta assistance in a month or so <3

Awww, and thank you for being so supportive and awesome about Speed Racer. Your love of that vid brings me continual joy *glomps*

Did you see Alan Ball and the other writer's disgusting comments about how Jason was getting his "comeuppance" for slutting around with women? At least this was the last straw for me to finally drop that show for good.

Gang rape is never okay. Rape is never okay. It's STILL NOT OKAY when it's a dude. And it is the opposite of okay when it's a 'hot' sweaty vulnerable dude, because that's just taking the same tired fucked up sexy-vulnerable-girl-gets-raped-and-its-awful-but-also-titillating trope and flipping genders.

This. So much. I just hope the fucking rest of the world would get it as well.

And also, I really had hoped that TB would comment on how Hotshot is fucked up in so that sexual violence is commonplace and that the women and girls raping Jason were also victims and not just perperators, but after what Ball said about how the rape was his favourite bit of the season so far (or some shit) I'm not exactly holding my breath for acknowledgement of the fuckeduppedness of the situation.

I'm loving the trickle in of footage from Comic Con. So far I have watched the Game of Thrones and Lost Girl panels. I've just read GoT transcripts, and so extremely shocked and offended by comments by Momoa. How did they come across on screen? What about the ( ... )
