@LurkyMcLurkerson:disqus Yep, I missed Out of Gas because I had to go to a work function, and was so upset because I didn't tape it; I just knew I'd never get the chance to see it because no-one else I knew was watching or taping.

You say that like we'd be hesitant to admit it.

You're such a butthead; look what you made me go find.

It's also worth mentioning that the release of Firefly on DVD was in no way, shape, or form a foregone conclusion, and it was kind of a big deal when it got a release. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, the unexpectedly high sales of Firefly on DVD is one of the reasons that almost every show gets a DVD release these days.

Incorrect; Angel S4 is awesome no matter what anyone says. *gets out Magic Murder Bag*

I hated hated hated Angel when he was on Buffy, and turns out that I love Angel the series  about forty-hundred times more than Buffy the series. He's so much better once they get him the fuck away from Buffy and give him some personality and agency of his own, rather than having him simply react to Buffy. See also…

Yep, I was pretty sure Simon was a goner, and I wasn't entirely sure that River was safe.  I was mostly sure that Kaylee would be okay, but that's because I think Kaylee is Joss's favourite and I hoped that wouldn't doom her. But I was totally expecting Dead Simon.

SCC is fucking awesome, and I am so very, very sad that it ended where it did.  If nothing else, it rules because it gave us both Terminator Dillahunt, and totally brain-wiped ex-Terminator Dillahunt.  My biggest complaint about that show is that the casting for Kyle Reese sucked in ways I cannot begin to explain…

I agree; I was just so pleased that the machine herded John into the bunker under the pretext that oh yeah sure he could totally stop J-Day so he'd survive. Because of course it can't be averted, unless you want to erase John from existence. But yes, the rest of the movie blew.

No, I mean I've heard they want to make the movie PG-13, not that the book is.

I believe it has indeed gone away, because it sucks and its author also sucks.  But it started as HP fanfic, and my understanding is that she just removed all HP-indentifiable markings.

Does Mortal Instruments count?

Putting those words into Google worked pretty well.

Congratulations, and thank you for being older than me!

As someone who can barely walk from the front door to the driveway without her contact lenses, I found it pretty fucking terrifying.

(I like Gattaca!)

Emma Watson tweeted about it hilariously back in March  - I don't know how to link to individual tweets, but she literally said "Who here actually thinks I would do 50 Shades of Grey as a movie? Like really. For real. In real life."

It's apparently really bad soft-core porn, though, so that's should be easy to make PG-13.

Sounds like you need new people on your FB feed.
