The Semi-Annual delurking/tell Doyle things/help me procrastinate, bitches Post

Anybody feel like delurking? Or pretending to lurk so you can delurk and comment?


I would like to know any of the following: (unnumbered since I don't expect people to answer them all)
- what's the last movie you saw that you really loved or really hated?
- is there a fic/pairing/scenario/cracked out AU, in any fandom or crossover, that plainly needs to be written but so far hasn't, to your great distress?
- show off your favourite icon.
- what's your favourite season finale of any show ever? Feel free to spoil me.
- if there's a TV/movie/book moment that just gets to you, whether to make you bawl your eyes out or fall about laughing, tell me about it. (*) (Note that this is a footnote mark, not a single pierced nipple boobicon.)
- confess your deep fandom shame. It's good for the soul.
- what upcoming movie/TV show/book/comic/whatever are you excited about? (I think we'll take Serenity as a given...)
- who's the best character in The Simpsons? This would be a poll if I weren't lazy. (It's Reverend Lovejoy, of coure, but I would also accept Sideshow Mel or the gestalt entity Carl-and-Lenny.)
- obscure character love yay! Who needs the love, in any fandom?
- and speaking of obscure, tell me what rare fandoms you have, or what you'd like to see good fic for.

(*) My emotionally crippling moments: I mentioned this when miggy did her meme a few weeks back, but the Simpsons episode Lisa's Substitute tears me up every single time. Argh, the note, "this is everything you need to know" and it just says "you are Lisa Simpson." I have to watch that episode every time it's on TV. I own it on DVD, I've seen it maybe 30 times, but if it's on TV I'm compelled to sit and watch for that one moment.

And don't get me started on Lilo and Stitch, because then my rampant immaturity will be out there for all the world to see.

ETA: I'm off to bed so if you don't get an immediate response, remember your hitchhiker's guide advice and don't panic. I'll be answering these tomorrow. But keep your towel on standby just in case.

::delurking, for the larks::

1. Last movie I saw that I really loved - Dog Day Afternoon. Which was a while ago actually, but eeee, Sonny! Nicest bank robber in the world. Who is gay. And lets cops touch the cut on his forehead in the middle of the robbery. I love it rather a lot.



2. Oooh, many. The curse of the rareslasher, sadly. But I'm rather distraught that no-one but me wants to slash Nine and Mickey, even after they had a Moment in an alleyway :( And no-one ever slashes Jaws. What? It's three men alone on a boat, in a life-or-death situation, and plenty of alcohol. It practically IS a slash fic.



3. ::favourite icon. Well, one I like best at the moment :)::



4. Finales I rarely get to, sadly. Though the Green Wing 'cliffhanger is memorable. And new Who had Tardis!Rose, so probably that.



5. I cried like a child at the end of Terminator 2. Moving on...numerous moments in Lolita, probably my favourite book ever. The end bits anyway - when Humbert talks about her 'ruined looks' and loving her anyway, when he admits/realises the tragedy is not her not being with him, but her not being with other children. When he says 'I am Lolita's father'. Ooh ::shivers::
   
   And as for the laughter, the 'Row vs. Wade' Simpsons joke pretty much always gets me ;)



6. I have no fandom shame. And perhaps no soul!!



7. Upcoming things: so many films. The joys of being a film magazine fanatic, and thus 'in the know'. Serenity, clearly. Mirrormask, whenever they feel like releasing the BRITISH film in Britain. And Night Watch!, which is Russian, and apparently the Matrix with vampires/werewolves/witches/etc, which has already outsold LOTR in it's home country. And there's a new Lemony Snicket book in November, squee!



8. Maggie, clearly. Genius mute baby with a shotgun! Or possibly Smithers - genius gay brownnoser with a shotgun!



9. MICKEY. No-one loves Mickey like I love Mickey. Sunday from BTVS. And Andy Hunter from Eastenders, dammit!



10. So many. And I'd like to see ANY fic for all of them. Sea of Souls, season 2, which I don't expect anyone to have even heard of anymore, but it here (http://www.bbc.co.uk/drama/seaofsouls/). Lemony Snicket - only I recognise the true love of Violet and the Hook-Handed Man. Malcolm in the Middle - Francis/Spangler. And once upon a time Eastenders, though at the moment Emmerdale, anyone/Carl King. Though preferably one of his brothers. Yes.

::is perhaps starting to feel that fandom shame thing...::

The lack of Mickey love makes me very sad. And you're so right on the Doctor/Mickey - any other fandom there would have been buckets of slash after the last scene in WWIII. I crave fic where Mickey did go along as a companion. And future Ten/Mickey where there's been some epic battle and Rose is dead and Ten is left to break the news and there is angst.

Love the Fight Club icon.
