River ,'Out Of Gas'
[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.
As I've said before, I'll give the show a shot, but I'm not sure that it's to my taste. I hope the character/plot stuff will overcome the ew-ness for me.(I prefer my violence/horror understated, and implied.) That's just me, mind you.
This is me. And the fact that all the reviews feel the need to mention how gory it is, I'm concerned I might not be able to make it past it.
But I guess my questions will be answered tonight.
I've never seen SotL because I can't handle gore.
For what it's worth, Silence of the Lambs is an awful lot less gory than Se7en. Pretty much only two gory scenes, and you could be warned about them in advance (to close your eyes) if you watch it with somebody else. It's much more a drama than a horror movie.
Also, much better to ignore my statement about critics last night than to converse about it - I was probably not making much sense. A few too many Gin and Tonics.
Also also, IT'S WEDNESDAY YAY.
The New York Daily News liked it: [link]
well...how about that. The Inside is on imdb's homepage and there's a big honkin' flash ad for it at the top of the page too.I saw that, tiggy. I was just popping in, to mention it.
I have done my fandom-ly duty and pimped the show in my lj. also mentioned your website, Kevin. of course, most of my friends were probably already planning to watch, but it never hurts to make sure.
Do you go to the Beta and the Fuselage at all, these days? If so, are the folks there talking about the show? Do they plan to tune in?
Kevin, what made the SfGate's story even more tooth grinding for me was that it was side by side with a terrific story about Serenity. Annnd, Tim was never mentioned.
Warning. The Daily News Review contains spoilers for the first two episodes.
Herc posts six reasons to watch The Inside, which look suspiciously similar to something he's posted before.
I'm going to feel dumb if I don't catch the Angel reference tonight. (Nine hours!)
Slashdot rejected the story.
Try spelling it Teh 1ns1de.

umm...not so much. i pop in on beta a few times a week to see if there's anything new going on(which probably only takes about 10 minutes and less than one board to read). the fuselage just became too much chat with people i don't really care to get to know. well...that and i kind of lost(heh) interest in Lost.
mostly, i'm at livejournal. if i'm not there, i'm lurking here or trying to keep the morons in line in the veronica_mars community.
