`He combed his hair, Put on a shirt that his mother made, And he went on the air...'

Sorry for being so negative. I know it is a real bore. I shall shut up now. Much better to have really low expectations...

He sings "We are as gods" as he crosses the screen instead of saying Grr. Argh.

Ahem.

Aw, yeah--that's what I'm talking about. I think I may need a cigarette or something. This season has been, imho, So. Fucking. Amazing and I yearn desperately for its release on dvd, money for food and other such petty concerns be damned. I shouldn't be able to love this show more than I already do, but...yeah. It's so nice when everything about a season falls into place, y'know?

Also, um--when did Connor get so hot? Was I just not paying attention? (I mean, I knew that fans had formed a line to lick the pretty boy ages ago, but he never properly twigged the hottie radar until this epsiode, and yes, it's possible I need to get my eyes checked.)

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Which Angel ep did you just see, Leigh?

Uh, if my excuse for a memory serves it was Peace Out--the second-to-last episode.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Americans not so familiar with Kiwis. I guess we do some odd things with our vowels.

Well, yeah. I saw Once Were Warriors subtitled (on VHS), and not just because there was a deaf woman in my class. But the vowel thing is consistent, so we get the hang of it eventually. Enough so that all the Lord of the Rings backstage people make sense to me now.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

HA! Give in to the Bon Bon!

Damn, I love that show.

Waaah! My television finally decided to die tonight. I think the tube exploded or something, in any case it seems terminal. Fortunately the VCR is still working so I'm taping stuff, but I'm going to be on severe delay.

Thank God this didn't happen before the Big Brother finale, that's all I can say!

Once Were Warriors is subtitled for Americans?? Yeek! Then again, didn't someone say that the Americans and the British were the same people divided by a different language.

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

I love watching subtitles on J'can movies. It seems kinda indicative of a notsorare J'can mindset that the captioner seems to have their own unapologetic idea of what the characters should be saying.
