she will be your living end

[reflectedeve]

Oh man, I am so behind on everything! Life's been pretty nutty lately, what with taking first steps towards the grad school of my dreams and all, and having my first-ever portfolio review. (It went really well - thanks so much to everyone for the advice! ♥) I have some catching up to do, per as usual.

I'm super excited, though, because trekreversebang claims

WHITE COLLAAAAAAAR! I totally think Kate is alive! Otherwise, it's just a huge letdown.

[reflectedeve]

Seriously! I mean, what's the point of building up all that tension (and Neal's continued, determined faith in her in the face of all warnings) if it doesn't pay off?

[mourning_night]

I agree so much with your White Collar thoughts. I'll raise my hand as another Kate didn't die supporter.

[reflectedeve]

Sweet. :) Oh man, waiting to find out is going to be hard.

I should clarify this comment--

I don't think she died, but the possibility that she snuck out and was crafty is so obvious that I don't find it any more intriguing than her just being dead.

--by saying that, to me, plane-exploding is such a been there, done that trope that there is NO direction they could take it that I would find very impressive. It's not that I think Neal shouldn't make choices or women shouldn't have personalities. I just have no respect, ever, for the Exploding Vehicles Full Of Loved Ones move.

I am with you there! Blowing up (or appearing to have blown up) a character's loved one at the last minute is tired and cheap. :/ (I would probably be more irritated in general if I hadn't loved the rest of the episode so freaking hard, right up to that second.) That said, I still think that secretly!alive!Kate would have a lot more (or, you know, any) potential next season than suddenly!dead!Kate, since they can't exactly take back the explosion.

UNLESS IT'S ALL A FEVER DREAM DUN DUN DUN

[reflectedeve]

But WHOSE dream is it, and just WHEN did it start? :O

[lovinspike247]

I choose to believe that not only is Kate alive, but she's behind all of Operation Mentor.

Though, this may be because I've been rewatching Alias lately, where no one dies and most people are secretly evil masterminds.

Hee. I'm not sure I want such a big conspiracy (I imagine that just leading to 'everything is just about tormenting Neal!'), but I could totally see her being in on it all.

I've heard so much good about that show, but I've never watched it! I am so tempted by anything with a kickass female lead.

[bluestalking]

DON'T DO IT. It's basically an extended version of Run, Lola, Run--until the fucking Rambaldi artifacts start showing up. Then it is just a fantastical conspiracy shit show. My philosophy: stick with Franka Potente, and avoid the Dan Brown nonsense.

[reflectedeve]

I still have not seen Run, Lola, Run! On the other hand, Dan Brown comparisons are a good way to put me off something.

I always enjoy watching Jennifer Garner beat on people in the "I Enjoy Being A Girl" vid, though. :p
