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.

I lurk here on occasion...so, hi!

- what's the last movie you saw that you really loved or really hated?

La Grande Illusion, by Jean Renoir: loved it to teeny tiny bits.

- 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?

Biggles/Giles; alternatively, Biggles/Captain Jack (Harkness and/or Sparrow). If we're going for RPS, Biggles/Jon Stewart would work just fine too.

- show off your favourite icon.

Current favourite, I think!

- what's your favourite season finale of any show ever? Feel free to spoil me.

Graduation Day, Part 2 from Buffy - I just love the part where the students all stand up and fight so much. Plus, it has Larry, my favourite tertiary character ever.

- 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.

There are too many to count. I'm a big suck and cry over everything, real or manipulative.

- confess your deep fandom shame. It's good for the soul.

I read pretty much every smutty Nine/Rose story out there, even if they're absolutely awful and just end up making me snort with laughter and embarrassment.

- what upcoming movie/TV show/book/comic/whatever are you excited about?

I'm not looking forward to Serenity...not a fan. But I am dying for The Christmas Invasion, the new season of Corner Gas, and in gaming news, the Mario Dance Dance Revolution game, coming out in October!

- who's the best character in The Simpsons?

Crazy-hard question...I think I'll have to go with Doctor Nick. I'd also suggest the good Reverend, Lisa, and Bumblebee Man.

- obscure character love yay! Who needs the love, in any fandom?

Dean Thomas from HP, Susan Bones and Hannah Abbott (and really, all the Hufflepuffs) from HP, Larry from BtVS, Davesh (the male controller in BW/PotW) from DW, Harry Sullivan (omgcrush!) from old-skool DW, Haleh, Chuny, and Malik (the secondary nurses) from ER, and my usual statement of Ringo was teh best Beatle OMG!!11

- and speaking of obscure, tell me what rare fandoms you have, or what you'd like to see good fic for

CORNER GAS! It's a Canadian comedy set in Saskatchewan, and it's funnier than anything in the whole world. Seriously. Though, I don't really want fic for it, because it doesn't need it. A fandom I do want fic for, however, is Biggles. Preferably crossover slash, since he can travel in time (according to the movie).

This was fun, thanks! And I'm finally going to get around to friending you, no pressure to reciprocate, but then I can lurk more often. :)
