Are we sure Tim didn't write that ?
Buffy ,'The Killer In Me'
Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.
Hmmm. I don't know. I didn't like the ending much -- too much of a shift in tone toward tragedy? And the tragedy didn't feel quite *earned* since we spent so little time with Penny. And her last words were "Captain Hammer will save us", which, OK, she didn't do much except be sweet and naive, and she died sweet and naive and all her function was being The Girl, then The Victim. I am disgruntled, even though NPH acted his little heart out and the final montage was terrifically put together.
I can't d'l from itunes on my home computer. . . I have been completely unable to update itunes on my home computer since the beginning of this year. It won't even recognize my nano. I''m guessing that unless it appears elsewhere I will not see it 'til Monday.
Perkins, I'm with you on this one.
Also,
Mutant Enemy Grr Arg at the end!
I'm not sure how
satisfied I am with it. I know I need to watch it again.
Honestly, any time I yell Fuck you Joss at the screen is a good thing.
Matt watched the whole thing through with no break. except for more scotch. I kept telling him -- no,wait ,don't sip now.
and as per usual no one was close to the real end. But then part of me remembered that dying isn't always permanent in the Joss verse. and I also though-- not growing, which Penny didn't, is a kind of death. Besides, it left captain tool crying on the couch and put Dr> Horrible in red.
I'm with Vonnie.
sigh. Well, 2/3s of it didn't trigger feminist rage issues. And NPH was very, very good. But then they had to go and STUFF HER IN THE FRIDGE. JESUSFUCK, MEN, DO YOU LEARN NOTHING?????
I don't know she had doubts, yet refused to listen to them. The men in her life didn't see her as a complete being
I do agree the last ep wasn't as satisfying, but it was also several minutes shorter in order to include the credits. It lacked a final twist/gag. Although I have to say, having now seen Bad Horse, the line "or he'll make you his mare" is even funnier.
I thought it was great. Perfect ending of an origin story. And fridge? What?
I just wanna cry . And I wanna see more. I totally missed my grrr, argh. I didn't realize quite how much. This can't be all there is! There should be more. I want more. With more music, and funny, and clever, and, and, MORE.
And yes, it could be Tim , but it still feels like classic Joss to me.
eta: I know this is Buffistas, and we're supposed to be all coherent in our passion, and not all blobbering fangurl, but I can't help it. It's been so long. With this short webcast, Joss and company have turned me into a blathering idiot.
