Sanctuary - 310 - The Hollow Men

Dec 18, 2010 09:37

Literally every time I hear Helen Magnus say, "Previously, on Sanctuary" all I can think is how much Amanda hates them. Also, I see you there, "6 Hrs!", in the previouslies. Anytime that shows up, my life becomes better.

( There be tigers down there )

!tv, sanctuary

Well, don't be sad, because I don't think I'll ever stop. Unless something happens like it turns out everything was a dream and the whole of "Sanctuary" was just a figment of someone's imagination and Helen Magnus isn't real, I will not stop watching this show and making overly lengthy posts about it.

Ugh, life, why do you have to get in the way of TV watching. And Harry Potter references for all. I feel like if anyone knows their audience really, really well, it's "Sanctuary."

Basically, yeah, they need to have lots of sex and babies, rightnowthx.
Mmhmm mmhmm mhmm. There was this moment I thought John was going to kiss Helen and got super excited for it, but it didn't happen.

If (when?) they kiss, I might actually die. Really.

You and me both. And I'll be recapping it from the beyond.

I think you have come up with the only scenario that would make me say, "Well, Helen and co. had a good run. Let's watching some of the Hour of Power with Nikola Tesla."

I mean. He throws his hands up in the air sometimes. He cannot be denied.

(Ugh, please ignore the typo in my above comment.)

Favorites: "You're not really good at naming things, are you?",
"Huey, Dewey and Screwy!", "He's not worth it - pardon the pun.", the line about Will not bringing his phone to hollow earth, and S"ON. OF. A. BITCH."

So. Pretty much everything you quoted. Heh.

This was a stressful episode for me. Lots of sweaty palms. But ngggg so good.

Good point about peeing/periods. Like, wth. If you're having cramps, do you ever double over, or if you're Kate do just have to keep on goin'?

And, basically, I look forward to these posts every Saturday. ♥

I love whenever Nikola makes up names for people. It's one of his best things. And I could maybe watch Nikola say "Son of a bitch" forever.

It was so a stressful episode. Every time Helen was around, I was terrified for her life. Especially having to carry that deadweight Will around with her.

If you're having cramps, do you ever double over, or if you're Kate do just have to keep on goin'?

Yes. Who knows? Maybe they'll address this on a podcast.

Oh yay thanks, 'cause I do too. ♥

OKAY, THE WE'RE NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE VIDEO. I CAN'T. I favorited it the moment Solitudes friggin' showed up, and then died when Sliders and The Pretender did, and then went to heaven when dub Sailor Moon was there. I JUST. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BRINGING THIS WONDER INTO MY LIFE.

and MOEEEEEE. I'm going to tweet them this video one day to show them how to say it right.

I want you to know that in the brief time we've known each other, I already have started to associate Sailor Moon with you. So when I was watching it, I was thinking of people who would like various clips, and then Sailor Moon popped up, and I was all, "Yep. She'll like that."

EXCELLENT. Because the world needs to learn.

1) YOU DO KNOW THE BASILISK PREDATES HARRY POTTER RIGHT? DDDD: GOOD YOU HAD ME WORRIED.

OKAY. 1) Hollow Earth's lights REMIND ME SO MUCH OF ATLANTIS.
2) Sanctuary TOTALLY RIPPED OFF THE INCREDIBLES for like 100% of this episode. Little gyroscoping travel balls? Did that. Little electromagnetic balls of purple energy suspending them in midair? Did that. THE SLUMPY POSITIONS THEY ASSUMED ONCE MADE DEAD? DID. THAT.

The whole "Helen not having a plan" thing? That actually was kind of scary.

I LOVE THIS WHOLE EPISODE WHEN IT HAD TESLA AND DRUITT ONSCREEN. And also even Druitt's Dick Move at the end of the episode.

1) I worry about what you think of me that you think I only know about basilisks from Harry Potter.

Helen not having a plan is one of the scariest things ever. Because she always has a plan. I blame radiation and her sickness. Not enough Vitamin D.

Tesla/Druitt was fantastic. Cannot get enough of any subset of the Five hanging out together.

miri_d December 19 2010, 13:26:17 UTC

1) I actually don't/didn't think that's how you know about basilisks. I hold you in much higher esteem than that. There's just been a lot of whining about "BASILISK? REALLY? RIPPING OFF HARRY POTTAR >O" that I've seen around :P.

Nghgngghghgl. Radiation and sickness dnw. I'm sure it dulls her ability to think clearly too :\. Goddamn 159-year-old miracle iz ~dying~. I AM HAVING FLASHBACKS TO THE X-FILES OKAY?

I really wouldn't have a problem with it if SyFy decided to do a spinoff/continuation that is just about The Five. All the time, every day. Or, you know, if we got an entire season/half-season about them in the 19th century and then FLASHFORWARD to them just being awesome together today, and Will and Kate and Henry were just kind of ~off somewhere dong something for someone~. I didn't feel that way before, but now that we've gotten so much of the various permutations of the Five this year, I'm kind of addicted. They're like my 19th century opiate or something.
