Thank you, Jessica. I put off seeing that movie for a long time because my own depression was enough to handle without adding the Administration on top of it. I only finally saw it a couple months ago. I remember the scene now that I've read that defintion (transcript), but I must have repressed it.
eta: And if you'll permit me to ask a stupid question - Nilly said Minearverse was about soaps and crafts...and certain TV shows. I naively assumed it was about certain TV shows. How'd it develop the culture to be about soaps and crafts as well? Is Tim particularly into those?
Well, that was fun for me!
Or, not "fun", because of the gasping and the oh-my-goodness and the ouches in my head. So some other word, that's less merry than fun, but still keeps the meaning?
I can't wait to read the following ones. I wish there weren't missing ones in Kristen's list, though, for story-in-order purposes.
Hey Tim, if you're still here I have a fannish question...:
If The Inside had continued what direction would you have taken with season 2 and the Pony Man?
I think that's pretty much the extent of my curiosity.
How'd it develop the culture to be about soaps and crafts as well?
Spidra, I was trying to joke. Soaps and crafts are the main topic that the natter in this thread (which happens in each and every thread) happened to go it, for quite a few hunderds of posts. So your first assumption is 100% correct.
Spidra, it's just where the conversation has gone from time to time. Soaps and crafts. And procrastination.
Jackal, considering I'm usually still breaking a story and way behind while it's prepping... uh. Er. Someplace? I figured he'd be the big bad of the season. One thought was to have Pre-Filer either get released or escape and have him offer Pony Man up to Rebecca.
Aw, Nilly did her spicy brain thing, and now I want to rewatch.
Oh, and Rebecca would have totally gone for it. And there would have been some Faith-like cutting with the knives. 'cause, always funny.
Thanks, Tim. Of course now I feel even more depressed it didn't last longer.
Thank you, Kristen!
You're quite welcome! I wish I had the others so I could post those too.
I loved the part in which Web chooses to call Rebecca by the full name, the one she was not using for herself. He's already changing the person in front of him, designing her more like he wants her to be rather than who she was when she entered the room, and he starts with the most personal and most outward thing, a name. Am I putting too much into this?
I don't think so. That was my take on it as well. (Though Tim could tell us we're wrong.)
Oh, and "Carla" is now Melody, right?
IIRC, something didn't work out with the Carla character so they changed it to Melody and cast Katie.
