*Headdesk* for Emmys
Sep. 20th, 2009 09:41 pmNot a fan of the Emmys this year. I had hopes for a better show, but I thought it sucked. I know what you are saying. "You expect a decent experience for a viewer of an award show telecast?" Well, no, but somehow the "color commentator" on actor's lives when they walked up to accept their awards is about the stupidest thing ever.
*No spoilers here. There might be some in the comments section. *
It was a lot of interesting CGI, stunt work, and special effects in Transformers 2. Some of the bots were better than others. It was a popcorn flick. There is nothing wrong with that. I have loved some of the summer movies in the past. Something I couldn't get past in Transformers:Revenge of the Fallen was Megan Fox. I will admit she is very beautiful. No one doubts that. It's her acting that bothers me. I know she didn't get hired for her acting ability, but really, she is an actress, right? Blank looks and flat delivery don't really bring me into the story. Also I as a heterosexual female find that her buns, boobs, etc. don't do it for me. Overall, this 2nd film was what it was, a summer blockbuster. As for Megan Fox, I know she isn't Meryl Streep. Still, maybe if she focused on her acting a little more and lip gloss a little less, she might have something.

X-Files Premiere Day
Sep. 10th, 2008 10:06 pm"Today in 1993, The X-Files first premiered. What's your favorite episode? Have you ever experienced paranormal activity yourself?"
Favorite episode is always a tough question, but how to begin to pick from the X-Files line up? Hell, I can't even pick a favorite season. Just to be totally crazy I will pick Bad Blood. Why? Because I watched it tonight. It really is one of my favorites.
Me and paranormal activity? That would be a no.
Me and fandom activity? That would be a resounding yes. X-Files is one of my favorite of all time fandoms. I met some great people and had awesome conversations. Squeeing has never been as fun as the run up to Fight The Future. JAG/XF-Shippers from the Message Boards (the old days) representing!
Other thoughts? If I could tell CC and company what X-Files mean to me, I would say that their exploration of darkness made mine a bit brighter.

Is it a fandom if i am the only fan?
Jun. 17th, 2008 09:44 pmI read Undiscovered by Debra Winger this weekend and was completely blown away by her writing. The book was not at all what I expected. It was simply amazing. So now I am in love in a very platonic girl way.
For eagle-eyed F-List peeps, you might notice that this is not the first time Debra Winger has been mentioned here. She read at a poetry reading I went to (not her work) several years ago. I was impressed by her then. Now, i am completely in awe.
If you want to see a fairly recent picture, check out my icon. The guy is her husband, Arliss Howard.
I linked to my fave interview with her on You Tube. Far superior interview to The View clip floating around (Then again, most things are superior to The View.)
