I believe Meg when Meg says to screw the master plan. I think Meg's in it for the pain.
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Yeah--she hadn't said that this time when I posted, and I forgot it from the first time. I believe her too.

It, uh. May be one of those exchanges that sticks in my head. Maybe a little bit.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Huh. I'm watching the Fringe special features, and in describing a scene in which Olivia has to stab a bad guy, Kirk Acevedo says, "She has to get all Glenn Close on him."
Now, I have never seen Fatal Attraction, but I still found this reference curious, especially in light of Dean's random reference. Is Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction somehow the embodiment of woman-on-man violence or something?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think it's an incredibly bad embodiment, since she was the bad guy. We have enough good guy women (ugh, problematic, but you know what I mean) that surely she could have gone all Ripley on his ass or something, you know?
Also...I'm sure Glenn would like to move past that. She doesn't even list it as a favourite role.

I always thought the Glenn Close role in Fatal Attraction was a specific type of "embodiment of woman-on-man violence," since in addition to being slasher-movie levels of violent she was also completely obsessively nuts ("I will not be ignored.") It was a badly written movie in oh so many ways, but that character went crazy because she was a single successful career woman of a certain age who was bold enough to have an affair with a man she wanted even though he was married. He of course stayed with his wife and kid, and she of course got pregnant. And at that point she went totally over the top (those wacky pregnancy hormones I guess) and started stalking and boiling bunnies and such. So her rage and violence were all triggered by insults to the stereotypically feminine parts of her, not by immediate danger or circumstance.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

And saying Ripley would be better just because it's the character name. Does anyone even remember Glenn Close's character name in Fatal Attraction?

Man, why were there so many movies where women went creepy batshit in a sexual way over Michael Douglas? I think there were at least three. And at no point during the period of time where it felt like there was a new one every few weeks was Michael Douglas even remotely hot.
