Oh, but I loved some of the lines. They made up for quite a bit, imo.
Whitefonted for those who haven't seen it yet:
Dixon: "I want that bitch dead."
Marshall to Weiss: "Oh, I forgot. You're not that astute."
Marshall to Vaughn: "You know, you got the looks; I got the brains."
I loved that Marshall line too. (
I was humming Pet Shop Boys the rest of the night.
)
What was the line Vaughn said to Weiss when Weiss was comparing him to his brother? The one
about why his brother would never talk to him?
I don't remember it exactly, but something about no wonder, if you say things as stupid as that or something similar.
I believe it was
"You know, there's a reason your brother didn't want to talk to you"
Oh dear BoxedSettites, will you all think kindly of me this afternoon? I'll go post why in Natter.
The episode of Stargate with the "ice planet" is on SciFi right now.
They were just digging out the DHD and I could't help remembering the blooper form the special in August:
Scene: Sam and Jack, as they first attempt to chip off the ice from the DHD. (Sam is facing the camera, Jack has his back to the camera.)
Tapping: "You spent seven years on MacGyver, and you can't figure this one out? We got belt buckles and shoe laces and a piece of gum - build a nuclear reactor, for crying out loud!"
(Anderson turns toward the camera. Crew is laughing in the background.)
Tapping continues:
"You used to be MacGyver, MacGadget, MacGimmick, now you're Mr. MacUseless! Dear God! Stuck on a glacier with MacGyver!"
Tapping throws herself face down on top of the DHD.
Oh my goodness. Fanfic secret Santas. [link]
Now I'm wondering whether to participate, and if I do what fandoms/pairings to volunteer.
That is hilarious. Want more blooper reel, where can I get some?
Synchronous too, I'm watching 'Ascension' right now.
That bit was in the SG-1 special as the latest season started. It has interviews and behind-the-scenes. It was called, I believe Stargate:The Lowdown.
You might have to search for it, maybe a Stargate bittorrent site has it for download.
Reading TWOP's review of "Tru Calling" - they point out that Rebecca's bullet wound was at the base of her neck. So she must have managed to get that gun all the way into her mouth and point it down, then also be able to get a hand in there to fire it. Unless you're Julia Roberts or a professional sword swallower, I'm thinking most people could not do that. It's reminding me of other shows where they gave the viewer more credit - "The Pretender" where one was expected to know that Miss Parker didn't really try to kill herself since she was shot in the back, or even "The Simpsons" where they trusted the viewer to realize Snake probably didn't just fall on a bullet, thus getting it embedded in his gut.
