Buffy ,'Touched'


The Minearverse 3: The Network Is a Harsh Mistress  

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

What is even happening?

And Tim Minear focused most of his career on the cult favorites X-Files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and Firefly.

Hee. I suppose if you added up all the hours Tim's spent either saying, or thinking, "But I never worked on Buffy," we could say he's focused much of his career on it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Tim still worked on Buffy.

And January 2005, now? What?

Also, yay Todd Holland! Someone else who didn't think Brotherhood of the Wolf was hot shit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

He keeps on denying it. What is he trying to hide?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

We could get him a special t-shirt just to wear to interviews: My name is Tim Minear. I never worked on Buffy. Prepare to die.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Obviously my POV is tainted with love of the movie, but he really thinks all French movies but one are deep?

Hell, he thinks Amelie (which I rather enjoyed) was deep?

Tim is like the anti-Marcie of the Buffyverse. He wasn't there, but everyone sees him anyway.

Art Crawl!!!

If they would substitute Strange World or Lois and Clark (if that counts as genre, and why shouldn't it?) for Buffy . . . they'd look so much more together.

It's all the death and pain.

I've never seen Amelie. Is it good for renting, or will it make my eyes bleed?

That's hilarious, Rick.

Amelie is very cute. Any cuter, and I've have gone into shock and killed someone. Perhaps in the reverse order.
