...or whoever is responsible for this latest WTF-ery.

So. A famously vocal and proud prequel basher has a role in... a prequel-based TV showSo, the lesson is, if I bash the hell out of half of a franchise, I'll get rewarded with an on-screen role? Guess I've been going about it the wrong way since... well, my entire time in Star Wars fandom. ( Read more... )

Or at least, that's the impression I get from what I'm reading on message boards in response to a certain part of a new Clone Wars interview with Ashley Eckstein, regarding the developing relationship between Ahsoka and Padmé. No, not in that sense, guttery fanboys. ;)

Regarding Ahsoka and Padmé, Ashley says:

Seven weeks from now I will be bound for Orlando, for a week of all out blissful geekitude. Star Wars, Harry Potter... doesn't get much better! The HP park at Universal looks fantastic. I'm terrified about how much I'll be tempted to spend there ( Read more... )

I love my new four-day workweek, because it gives me that much-loved extra day off. However, there are times I just don't know what the hell to do with that day off ( Read more... )

Made some progress today thanks to being snowed/iced in. :) As expected, the sun going down led to the refreezing of the roads, making them far nastier than they were earlier. Good thing I didn't head out; wherever I was, I'd be stuck. And it looks like I'm stuck tomorrow, too - little sister doesn't get off work until late afternoon, right ( Read more... )
