Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

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

Harrumph. Vince did good, but he didn't steal Mr & Mrs Smith from Brad, nor Wedding Crashers from Owen.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I was watching the outtakes last night and Fillion looked really good in them. Like the color timing of the movie made him look worse or something. Or I'm crazy. But I found him way cuter in them than I did while watching the movie at the theater and at home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

ION, Nathan gets a pet from DC's newest tabloid, The Examiner in their Top 10 Overlooked Performances of 2005.

And even better, that looks to be an AP piece, so widely distributed.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'd be more excited if the list didn't also include the penguins in Madagascar.

I liked the penguins in Madagascar. They were the highpoint of the movie for me.

I don't know about cute, but watching the Serenity DVD the other night, I thought he looked pretty haggard, which I'm not sure if that was intentional or not, considering the place Mal is in for most of the movie.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I didn't see Madagascar but they were funny in a short played before Wallace & Gromit.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

The Browncoats site is down. A bit sad--I was chatting there earlier.

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

Friend of Cow: have you gotten the Serenity DVD yet?
Cow: No.
Friend of Cow: DON'T GET IT
Cow: Oh...kay.
Friend of Cow: that's me being subtle.

Yay for me!

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

I feel cheated that the Serenity soundtrack doesn't have the nifty acoustic theme at the end of the credits. Hence, I like my Firefly soundtrack better. (well, for more reasons than that.)

I'm also feeling petty and bitter, and hating that FOX is making money off DVD and CD sales for Firefly. They don't deserve it! The money should go straight to the cast and crew--people who actually appreciated it and cared about it, damnit.

Art Crawl!!!

Well, it's not like the money goes directly to the tv network, right?

It goes to the production company.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm with Una on soundtrack prefs. I just think the Firefly soundtrack is better music. Although I do wish there had been time to develop each track into themes, as Shore did for LotR. There's some fabulous music on that cd. I regularly play it along with the BSG series soundtrack, those two seem to share a similar spirit, musically, as an auditory experience removed from their origins. Um. As it were.
