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.

- what's the last movie you saw that you really loved or really hated?
Ray is really, really beautiful, though I don't know if I LOVE it. I do, however, really love Napoleon Dynamite.

- 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?
A Doctor Who 05/Firefly crossover that isn't ridiculously funny or ridiculously depressing, where Jack Harkness falls for River Tam in that really cute childhood crush way...see my fic wishlist.

- show off your favourite icon.
At the moment, it's the one I'm using as default.

- what's your favourite season finale of any show ever? Feel free to spoil me.
Star Trek: TNG did the season finale REALLY well--Best of Both Worlds, Descent, and of course, All Good Things are all really good. Futurama's series finale is so very, very cute, and Cowboy Bebop's makes me cry. Rumour has it that the Tarantino CSIs are great, but I was in the UK at the time and didn't see them.

- 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.
Minority Report, where Agatha tells Lara and John Anderton about what their son would have been like, had his future caused him to live...is probably the most emotionally real thing Spielberg has done in years.

- confess your deep fandom shame. It's good for the soul.
I secretly like to read HPcest fics from time to time.

- what upcoming movie/TV show/book/comic/whatever are you excited about?
I'm actually kinda psyched for V for Vendetta, 'cause I think there needs to be more SF movies; Tennant!Doctor, of course; Goblet of Fire, vaguely; S.M. Stirling's new series (the first book is 'Dies the Fire') has another book coming out, which is exciting.

- who's the best character in The Simpsons? This would be a poll if I weren't lazy.
I actually have a soft spot for Ralph Wiggum, when I'm not busy identifying with Lisa.

- obscure character love yay! Who needs the love, in any fandom?
Well, Rose/Gwyneth needs to happen, yo. Also, people need to stop writing Tonks from Harry Potter as either completely off her head or a sappy romantic, and for god's sake, give Jon Archer from Enterprise a life.

- and speaking of obscure, tell me what rare fandoms you have, or what you'd like to see good fic for.
I've written Minority Report fic; I'd also love to see a fanfic that goes into detail about how Sarah Connor (from Terminator) went batshit between the two films. Yes. There are only two Terminator films.

Well, Rose/Gwyneth needs to happen, yo.

*total agreement* It'd be a bit tricky to make work since they only know each other a very little time before Gwyneth dies, but that's what time travel's handy for...
