Current You'd think after like 15 years I'd stop feeling like a fraud when writing posts but I still do which is both a statement on my self confidence and a compliment to how good my partners are as writers

Look, I got lost on the way to getting some jajangmyeon and it'd be foolish to leave now.

@HalfOfLancelot I'm not saying he isn't, I'm just saying that Emily Blunt and John Krasinski are like a real life OTP and they are adorable.
@Fabricant451 okay you're doing the equivalence of kicking a puppy good sir Some actors fit better in certain molds than others. Like why is Oscar winner Charlize Theron in not just the first shitty Snow White Huntsman movie but agreed to do the probably much worse sequel? You know who gets a lot of hype and is an Oscar winner who I don't think is a good actress? Jennifer Lawrence. *Shot.*


Because even Oscar winning actresses need to make money. I mean, Emily Blunt's in the sequel and she's amazing and wonderful and I love her but she's gotta eat too because John Krasinski can't coast on Office residuals forever!

Also I agree with you. I think Jennifer Lawrence is a bad actress and her winning for American Hustle was garbage.

American Hustle was a garbage movie.

@lovely complex What that
@HalfOfLancelot
OMG JUPITER ASCENDING IS A GREAT MOVIE


I mean, let's not get carried away here. Eddie Redmayne chewing the scenery, though, that's worth a ticket.

Can't believe dude won an Oscar for Theory of Everything it's like did they see Jupiter Ascending

@reiko I knew BvS was going to be bad because Zack Snyder is a hack director.

I just didn't know how bad it was going to be.

But then I am that person that assumes all super hero movies will be bad. But BvS was especially so
@reiko I have no doubt that Suicide Squad will deliver big time.


Yeah, and WB thought BvS would too and we all know how that turned out.

but no seriously at least suicide squad has a competent director

@HalfOfLancelot The avatar and the username, yeah. Cloud Atlas was like my obsession after loving the book and hearing about the movie. I had already been the biggest Bae Doona fan in the state (who will challenge me, no one that's who) so seeing her in an actual movie in an American theater was like the greatest three hours of my little life.

But yeah, sci fi all day.

@reiko The Last of Us is like...I feel like I'm blaspheming when I say that playing that game was a bad experience because it's not a good game to play but you play it anyway because there's a handful of alright moments. Like I did not like playing that game at all, and not in the way they probably intended.

I mean, I just like science fiction because I really like space. It might've been because as a kid I watched Star Trek but I've always just been fascinated with sci fi settings, especially ones that are set in the near future rather than straight up pure white space base future. Space is so cool. There need to be more good space movies.
<Snipped quote by Fabricant451>
Never quite understood the fascination about Kdramas. They never did appeal to me one bit. Only thing they have going for them is the fact that they're Korean.


How do you think I feel? I still don't know why I go in for Kdramas but I just do. THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME SCENARIO BUT I LOVE THEM ANYWAY.
You want to know a bad plot-driven show? Walking. Dead. It's fucking trash.


Fucking word. Everything with zombies is trash though so eh.

I can't say anything about Clarke but I hate the CW for how they portray LGBT characters. Why are the only females that like other females both have to be hot and make out? Why can't there be a gay character that's well developed and not only used for comic relief? So even if their intentions are honest, I'm still skeptical about why they made Clarke with Lexa.


I mean there's Miller and Brian but I wouldn't call them well developed. It's something I guess? And I'll take something over nothing in most cases.

Maybe since fiction isn't really your thing, you tend to be more big picture and that's why you prefer plot-driven, because you rarely care for an individual character's story.


Science fiction is my thing is the thing. Fantasy isn't my thing. But I routinely watch all of Farscape. I'm versed in the Honorverse. Science fiction and I are tight.

Because everything basically becomes pointless and you're just as bad as action movies that are just explosions and one liners (Michael Bay movies, a lot of popular superhero movies, etc).


Well to be fair, superhero movies are pretty pointless but at least they usually know what they are. They are not great movies and I want the bubble to burst but they're inoffensive. Usually.

Okay but after only watching the first season, the L Word's just plain trash.


It actually got watchable in the second and half of the third seasons but it was one of those shows that was of its time. I have a fondness for it like some people have a fondness for Sex and the City. I'll never defend it as a show worth watching, but it's absolutely a guilty pleasure of mine, much like a Gossip Girl or any given reality program.

I totes PMed you Fabric. Talking about GOT in a more analysis form as a war story is not a public chat friendly thing xD


Just so you know, any attempts to analyse GoT to me will be met with me going "All I know from that show is it made people like Peter Dinklage because these plebs never watched The Station Agent which is fantastic"

But also yes, time to flex that useless film studies degree. Flexin' it all.

@Altered Tundra I don't actually watch television on a television. My television these days is 90 percent Netflix, five percent DramaFever/KSHOW and five percent incriminating.
