Yes, which was, you know, community theater. Professional, but local. SO much better for your rep, even if only a few hundred people see the performance. I don't get what this is about. Usually hiatus work is against the type you play in your series. This? I suppose could be classified as against good(ish) horror?

Okay, Sandy McCoy is officially awesome, in my book.

I completely get why Jared is in love. I'm a little in love myself.

I've got a theory.

The play was really fun to watch. I didn't get the impression from JA interviews that he had that much fun actually doing it. Like it was a not bad experience but more like it was a challenge he set for himself and was able to accomplish. I'd be surprised if we saw much more than token theater in his future. The films, no matter how bad, provide revenue in a medium in which he is much more comfortable working.

Maybe he needs/wants some money. If you aren't going to become a big big star, it makes some sense to make as much money as you can when you are bankable and save it. Although, he may become the next Harrison Ford for all we know!

If so, he's better start getting more sun and smoking more pot now.

Harrison Ford was in some pretty awful movies.

And the Star Wars Holiday/Christmas Special.

Which, come to think of it, may have been the worst thing I ever willingly watched until the day I watched Devour.

(Placeholder thoughts going back to the writing/intent/audience reaction discussion re: that Drive backstory bit. Just to get this out there, in certain subcultures, actually, that might not ping Serial Killer. I'm pretty sure Derelict Greenhouse would have been considered a romantic location for a First Goth Date, and somewhat more creative than Abandoned Graveyard. Carry on.)

But Abandoned Graveyard is a classic! Messing with tradition is Bad!

(But yeah, I had the same thoughts as Plei, because my first reaction was "Derelict greenhouse and picnic! Neat!")

But Derelict Greenhouse that is miles away from anywhere?

I was imagining coming across it on a hiking date or possibly while out dog training, or maybe on a trail ride.

I want to know, Who is abandoning these graveyards? (Actually, we don't have abandoned graveyards where I live, because, your abandoned graveyard is somebody's condo development.)

Anybody wanting to take me on a first date anywhere where it's dark and there are no other people in screaming distance qualifies as Serial Killer in my book. Tenth date, and you want to screw ontop some famous person's grave-marker, whatev, go ahead, but I like my first dates to occur in well-lit, well-populated locations.

To be fair, in my experience, which I *realize* is not the norm, due to it being mostly, umm, in college, the first date almost always took place after the first hookup. (And pre-hookup, peeps were generally Someone You Hung With Anyway.)

(I mean, I had a few dates that didn't formalize a pre-existing nookie connection. Of course, those never went beyond third base. And Paul and I never really dated. We just sort of eased into a relationship after a few weeks of making out after our regular Tuesday Diplomacy games. College = Not Real Life.)
