Evil taunting laugh

Pfffpt.

Judicious editing could be good. I can't remember what I thought of it. I think I thought it was, not great, but, you know, fine for what I was expecting. Which wasn't a lot, really. Oh, wait, I missed the shot of Serenity (I'm not making that up, right? It's in there?) the first time around, so I'll have to look for that again. Unless it's been judiciously edited.

Yes -- it's very early on.

Hopefully, NOT judiciously edited out.

Personally, I think that any editing that cuts out the cameo is injudicious.

Ohdearlord. I just saw last night's TDS, on which Isabella Rosselini made an appearance to plug "Earthsea". They showed a scene from the miniseries.

I'm going to need lots of alcohol for this, aren't I?

The scene looked like something from Harry Potter, with a "scroll of poisons" and two girls in schoolgirl jumpers and frocks standing before IR's desk, being scolded.

Brainbleach, please?

No! Like a British girls' school uniform?

Oh, yes. Brown jumpers over white blousey dresses. They looked and sounded like something out of Anne of Green Gables.

t flails helplessly Arha is Eaten. She wears black, and lives in a room with a cot and a table, and before she is fifteen she starves three trespassers to death. This is so far from Harry Potter. Argh!

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

Well, in cheerier news, I'm watching Atlantis 15, and the McKay Sheppard show is in full effect.

The episode itself is kinda whatever, though.

When are they airing on Scifi?

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Starting January 21, I think.

Darn tootin'.

And I love the Sheppard McKay show, so yay for them.

I have zero familiarity with Earthsea. Sounds like I still will even if I watch the mini. Interesting.

I expect so. I rather doubt they'll get into all the really interesting stuff, about the naming of names, the constraints on the use of magic, the importance of language, all the thousands of years of history behind the characters.

I'm really very nervous about this.
