Hello from your friend the evil overlord

Mar 22, 2007 22:30



In the land of Mordor, in the fires of MountDoom, the Dark Lord Sauron forged in secret a master ring to control all others. And into this ring he poured his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life.

Hello from Mordor. Excuse me for a sec while I get this ring off… *errrgghhhh* OK.

Yikes. This is what happens when you’re blissfully ( Read more... )

I think I know myself well enough to realize that grave_watchers isn't for me, because I'll only get sad and/or upset about it, and so I don't join. But that doesn't mean that I think the community shouldn't be allowed to exist. In fact, since it's cut down on the vitriol on my flist I'm actually grateful that it exists. So thank you for that.

In a way, I'll never stop wishing for this show to get a chance to return to season 1 form, but, in my opinion, if they go ahead with the FBI idea that's never going to happen. The Veronica I know would never fit in at the FBI, and if the characterization is going to be shot to hell before the season even starts, then I'd rather it be canceled too.

You're welcome! :)

I think the reason so many of us are promoting cancellation is that we don't think that a season 4 at Hearst is even a possibility. If it looked likely, I don't think people would be so upset. But I think it's VM:FBI or nothing at this point. But who knows? Maybe the CW will fire Rob and see if another showrunner can get the show back on track.

Yeah, I've pretty much given up on TWoP at this point. It's so sad, because I used to love it there.

My ever-equanimous comment on all this "VM Haters Must DIE!" nonsense: fuck 'em if they can't take a joke.

Exactly.

And to this day, I STILL think that JoA should have had a 3rd season over VM's 2nd because as bad as JoA got, it never got near the depths of horror that VM has. Of course, had my ship been treated like your ship, I might disagree. I didn't realize they gave you a warning, too. So stupid, it wasn't even either of us, it was the other former-GH-watcher who was all bitchy and antagonistic about it, we were fine.

Good post, cracked me up especially: “How quickly would you become a Scientologist if JDoh suddenly became single?” Seriously, tears in my eyes, laughing so hard. And at: I don’t think there’s anything wrong with criticizing/mocking the public figures who represent that show and expect to be discussed in the press and on the internet, such as Rob and KBell (and those are the only two that I mock/criticize, since they took Teddy Dunn away from me). Oh, and I wanna read this meme if actually exists: the asinine-things-KBell-says-in-the-media meme.

This is true. JoA never called itself feminist while having every female character raped/murdered/sexually traumatized in some way.

The meme is at grave_watchers -- it's the one about why Logan isn't good enough for V.

This is a bit of a non-sequitur, but what was the other ship on JOA? I am in the middle of the second season (not hating it, but the first season was spectacular) and all I was aware of was Joan/Adam.

Many of my closest friends are people I would have never thought I'd be close to. It just goes to show...you have to have a sense of humor about this stuff.

Anyway, a very thoughtful post. :)

A guy can be bashing in your headlights with a crowbar one minute, then be your OTP the next. Have we learned nothing from Logan and Veronica?

Thanks!

Wow, I had no idea, that GW would become such a big deal. Again, I wasn't part of any fandom before, but I've been at TWoP for 2 years now, and isn't the freedom to express your opinion is their main slogan?

Another exellent post (I wish i had your powers of expression your thoughts), I'd love to friend you too, just so I can follow your posts everywhere. ;)

I don't write my journal tho, because of abovementioned problem of expressing my thoughts + the problem of English being only my 3rd language.
