Random wistfulness

[fangirl_says]

I miss Ellen. *sigh*

Also, there are lotsa people on my flist going "No Genevieve hating" and not a one that I've seen actually hating. I have the awesomest flist in the history of awesome.

However, I still don't like Ruby 2.0 and am waiting for a good explanation for how the character changed so drastically.

I love love LOVE Legend of the Seeker. OMG so cheesy, and some of the acting is absolutely horrendous (Zedd actor, I'm lookin' at you), but I love Richard in all his Gary Stuish glory (and good GAWD, where has Australia been hiding Craig Horner? MAMA LIKES.) And and and Craig Parker! As a villain called Darken Rahl!

Seriously, more people should be watching this.

Edit:


Hm?

Meanwhile, I'm losing the Fringe-love. Tonight's episode is really not holding my attention.

CRAIG HORNER SO HOT OMG. But he ain't half as lovely as Bridget Regan. I want to marry her and have her babies, regardless of the legal and physical improbability of such a thing. I love her. Love, love, love!

The show is cheese start to finish, but it's actually significantly better than the books so far. There's kind of nowhere to go but up, so I'm digging it!

Bridget is gorgeous! And she kicks ass, which makes her character even more fun. :D I've just started Wizard's First Rule, but I gotta say that I'm not terribly impressed with it so far. I think I went into it with unreasonable expectations -- I had read someone comparing it to LOTR, so, yanno. *g*

I would probably stop after book four if you absolutely must read 'em -- it's all a long, slow road downhill from there, and I say that as someone who eagerly anticipated each book coming out all the way to the end of the series. It just kinda looks a little murkier after the fact! But the books sure give you a better impression of, say, Zedd and his awesomeness than you see from the show. :D

Also, I don't know how you feel about audiobooks? But the audiobook versions of books 1, 2, and 4 are outstanding. The reader is Dick Hill, and he's just terrific start-to-finish. :)
