The only time she really felt natural was when Azkadeilia was trying to fake out DG. That was the only time when I didn't feel like she was trying so hard. I don't know if I've seen her in other stuff (checking out imdb I probably haven't) so I don't know if she's a bad actress or just made bad choices, but considering what I read and the rest of the movie I'll go with bad choices and bad directing.
I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I wanted the Ronans to go off and duel...
There was that moment when they first saw each other, and one of them had a sweet li'l grin on his face: I figured it was RepliRonan, knowing in an all-out fight between them, he would win simply because he could just keep going no matter the injuries inflicted.
. . . or something.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
...there must be lots and lots of fic. Because 2 Ronans is just the Best. Idea. Evah.

Old News:
I just saw the first Torchwood and, my god, they really are ALL bi. All of them. Well, maybe not Gwen, but she wasn't too put off by the girl-snogging; and Tosh sort of surprised herself with the girl-shagging, but she seemed to be pretty happy doing it.
Tell me it's a Welsh thing. Please? All of Wales is totally comfortably bi?
Also, I'm catching up on years-old SG1. Another miraculous prophecy pregnancy? (Pregphecy? Prognancy? I like prognancy. Maybe sprogphecy.) REALLY? And, whoah, was that Inara?
I missed SciFi.

That was totally Inara.

I love that. Not so much the pointless bazoom-showing tight-pants outfit, but Inara. Seriously, as a child she wore (and was surrounded by) near-Amish outfits, but as an adult it's time for Whitney Houston's "Bodyguard" Queen of the Night outfit?
And I remember wishing in Tin Man that the father had been some actor I'd seen before. It just would have made it easier for me somehow.
Ooh. Sweet post number.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Tell me it's a Welsh thing. Please?
It's a RTD thing.

Emily - I wish the father had been somebody I'd recognized too. DG and Azkedelia's parents were bland and boring. That can't have been the intent, right?

The big question is why, with all the magic and everything, they couldn't undo what had been done to their daughter by themselves, but had to hide out for 14 years until DG came along.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
That whole plot was a little odd. They knew something was wrong with Az when she killed DG, and their plan was to:
1) Send DG away.
2) Send the father away to wait for DG to someday reappear.
3) Have the mother remain in power and wait for Az to stage a coup?
