Several things:

+ Once you get past your twelve year old crush on Mel Gibson and your "omg this is so terrible" attitude on Martin being "omg suicidal", Lethal Weapon is kind of a boring movie. I remember being on the edge of my seat every time he acted insane because MAYBE HE WAS GOING TO KILL HIMSELF BECAUSE OMG SO TERRIBLE!!!, and now it's just ( Read more... )

What was he on yesterday? I saw "At a Distance" this weekend, which was pretty good till the end, and then I was all WTF? :)

Nothing for you, I'm afraid, but here (France), they aired the first episode of Close To Home. Never even heard about it before, though, so I can't tell you what it's about, except that there are apparently CK and a baby involved.

And At a Distance? Man, I've never seen that one!

+ Thanks for not cuttin' me. :)

+ Close to Home is a good show, but Christian's talent is wasted on that show and I thought his character was Mary Sue like.

+ Took the Still Life pilot. Grazie!

+ Dude, of course I'm not cutting you!

+ Hmm, see, if I only watched shows and movies in which talent weren't wasted, I'd be watching... a lot less tv and movies than I do now. But, sadly, that doesn't surprise me -- I love the guy, but he just can't find himself a good, stable gig. Oh well, will catch an episode or two to ogle.

+ You're welcome! Quality isn't the best, but, Still Life. I about died when I first found it.

+ As far as spoilers go, since the majority of my flist has apparently read them today, all I will say is: I cannot stand the "I trust TPTB with my life and I know they won't let me down" mentality, because: Alias? Lost? X-Files? Buffy?

Gah, yes. I live in fear of the dorsal fin. So in love with SPN right now, and I want to still be in love with it three or four seasons from now when we all start arguing about when exactly it jumped the shark. I'm nervous about season two and keep telling myself to cut it out already.

I hate spoilers. My flist is lovely about using cut-tags, but I can tell from the tone people are apprehensive.

I am a teeny bit spoiled for one thing, but I'm taking a wait-and-see approach.

I think I'm actually feeling zen because I never had any doubt SPN would end up going in a direction I wouldn't like, and eventually jump the shark. I figured, a couple good seasons, a couple not so good and then cancellation, with an added awful one or two if we're really lucky. That's a pretty depressing stand, now that I think about it, but at least I'm not anxious -- I'll take the good and fast forward through the bad, and at least I won't have any bad surprise.

That said, I won't spoil you but I really do think people are panicking too much. They're taking one element they don't like and forgetting about all the rest, including the way that one element will happen. So don't worry too much.

My zen started to wobble when I got...attached *g*

But yeah, calm is the word.

Oh, and I'm taking a Still Life download (thank you! I've been wondering how I was ever going to get to see it.)

Caught Close to Home a couple times, just for the CK factor, but I think he got offed in the season finale. Because nothing delivers better angst/drama than a widow with a baby. *rolls eyes*

*seethes* Bastards. Yes, of course it wasn't bad enough that she had to be both a mother and a working woman, now she needs to be alone and vulnerable, and she'll probably have to be there for a baby even more. Blergh. Better stick with Angel, then.
