The evil is this way?

SMG still manages to be a villain

It is the power that she wields, uh-huh. Hell, the author not only pissed on her for "Buffy" but for "All My Children." I mean, she was still a teenager on AMC and by a number of accounts it was her on-screen mother who was doing the diva.

You recognize it from FotR, right?

Nope. Most of my FotR knowledge has oozed out of my brain by now.

Yeah, and the other little short run thing she was on. With AMC, my understanding was that La Lucci was unbearable, because SMG won an emmy when she was still so new to the scene.

I suspect Kristen Bell and SMG are guilty of the same crimes: They're little, pretty, often blond, and relatively successful in a field where it's often difficult to pay the rent, never mind succeed. Oh, and they aren't shipping for the right ships.

After Gandalf dies, and the fellowship goes to Loth Lorien, Frodo tries to give the ring to Galadriel, because he has looked in her pool/mirror and seen how scary the future looks. She resists but, in the film, goes all CGI spooky and speaks the above lines. The "All shall love me and despair" is the end of it, before she realizes she passes the test.

They ship? Oye. That way lies some of the craziest apeshit fans madness.

Thanks. That was the part of the movie I never did get, and assumed that I had to read the book, I was unlikely ever to do.

Well, they don't actually ship (that I know of). But they dare to give their opinions in interviews, as to what might happen next, or which pairing they'd enjoy.

I'd forgotten you weren't big on LotR. It seems to me you should be. Correct that, please. And while you're at it, correct your WRONG assessment of the BBS, who is clearly DEAD.

I too wonder if Brainiac will fall in love with Lana. I still love Lex, but I could barely watch even his scenes last season. Now? I must see how all this will go down with JM in the mix.

I had to quickly run away from the VM fandom. It got so crazy so quickly. Seemingly powered by the worst part of BTVS fandom.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

His big thing used to be shrinking down cities and bottling them... maybe he could miniaturize Paris while Lana is visiting? Everybody wins!

Well, I'm not anti-LotR, and I've seen all the movies at least twice. I just never got into the books.

As for the BBS, I am so of the RIGHT, the RIGHTness of me just shines through. ALIVE!!! (You neener, you.) See, the BBS stuff reminds me of the fun times in the Bronze. Long ago, in a galaxy fandom far, far away. I even miss the shipper "wars" there -- I did so love the "BufFy N AnglE 4EVA!!!" posts, or at least the mocking of them.

I'm just sad that the original Zod rumors were untrue. Well, not that sad, as I'd be in a froth of One True Zodness and cranky with fans of the new Zod, but damn it, the thought of a million Kneel Before Zod related jokes was very entertaining.

Yes, I am aware that I need to get out more.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
