Jessica, if you abandon Star Wars, well, we'll understand.
Firefly, though? All the wankers except me have fled.
Xander: Look who's got a bad case of Dark Prince envy. Dracula: Leave us. Xander: No, we're not going to "Leabbb you." And where'd you get that accent, Sesame Street? "One, Two, Three - three victims! Maw ha ha!"

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.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
What I find slightly confusing and a little unnerving, frankly, is all the people on the Firefly/Serenity boards going "Episode 3 is great!!". Uhm. Did we watch the same movie? Do they not have ears?
Two comments:
(1) Huh. I didn't know that people can't like both movies.
(2) I can think of at least 2 other threads where this conversation would fit better than it does in this one.

Hey. New board.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm really really ready for someone to fix the typo that shows up at the top of my browser...

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
The really great sites tend to be the responsibility of fandom.
Poor kevin, you tripped and fell in the guacamole. You be alright. Have a paper towel.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
People can like both movies. Don't worry, I'm just slightly judgemental of Episode 3 from the point of view of, well, that's best discussed elsewhere.
If Fox point the official The Inside site to a Prospero message board I may cry. (I actually typed 'crap' just then, which worries me).

Hey. New board.
Oh, I know the best sites are fan-based. I tend to hate official sites. But I'd like pictures and things. Maybe an official wallpaper. It would match my Sisterhood of the Traveling pants wallpaper, in that cool way of matching that isn't, really.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The next question: "Is melodrama bad?"
Of course. It's a legitimate genre, and can be just as well-written or directed. See, Sirk, Fassbinder, Haynes.
It's just...juicier. And irony helps. (See, Sirk, Fassbinder...)

The Inside is going to have to come a long way from its teasers toward being a good show before I am sucked in.
I lurves me some Tim, but he teasers are promising more of the same.
