The cards, er, I mean the Spice, must flow.

It's a nice day. I'm sitting here eating some hamburgers which I grilled and watching Dune. And not that lame, weird version with Sting in it where Stilgar takes the boy-man (OUGH!) and peoples' eyes change color completely at random, but the kick-ass mini-series version.

Talked to my dad today. He's decided to buy me a box of the next L5R set that's coming out as a late birthday present. I wasn't going to be able to afford any for myself with the wedding coming up and had resigned myself to doing without for a while, so this was a very pleasant surprise. Now if somebody would just gift me a new job I would be all set, but that will come in time. I hope anyway. Meanwhile, back to Arrakis.

I dunno. It's the thing where they think they have to have weekly Saturday movies of complete crap that really hurts them. Why not air SciFi movies that are already out there? it can't cost that much more. And even some of the really crap B-movies out there are better than what they churn out. Maybe there was a PTB added who cancelled Farscape like that, and they've just not gotten rid of her? It's the way that they cancel the shows that really pisses me off. Go for several seasons not knowing so writing a real ender every year, and then they tell you that you'll definitely have two more seasons so you make a nice big arc, so they cancel the show instead of giving you the promised next year. It's just crappy.

Sadly, Dualla does not meet with painful death. or even dismemberment. Such a tragedy.

You should tell Mel that you get to watch Stargate on grounds of it being the last season ever and you should get to see that live. *nods*

Their good shows *do* draw more females. And it's not like they would have to look very far to see that. But they seem to just not believe it because they've gotten it in their heads. Stupid bastards. And the funny thing, to me, is that there are Very few stupid young anybodys who watch SciFi. Mayhap the PTB should be required to attend a few cons? Maybe they would become terrified and have some sort of breakdown so that they will be replaced by actual SciFi fans. *dreams*

perhaps. There's only so much self-aware crap that you can watch and enjoy though. Bruce Campbell is definitely an exception to ...any rules. I'm conflicted about this weekend's Saturday movie because there's a star I really like that we never see, but I'd have to watch the movie. <---see? conflict.

So this is definately Stargate's last season? How did the whole Ori thing turn out last season?

[elvinborn.livejournal.com]

yep. SciFi cancelled it the Monday after they aired the 200th episode. Because they are giant bastards. (they could have waited a week). but Atlantis does at least get a fourth season. Scarily, one source suggested they would be absorbing some of the SG1 cast. I SOO hope not.

Ori: still going. I hate the Ori. But I think they could be more interesting once Morena Baccarin joins the mix.

Morena Baccarin!? *cums*

[elvinborn.livejournal.com]

OK. that was probably TMI. *runs away*

On an unrelated note, did you get the e-vite for the wedding that we sent you?

[elvinborn.livejournal.com]

erm. I don't think so? Where'd you send it?

[uberreiniger.livejournal.com]

The forestgold address, I think. That's the one in my address book.

[elvinborn.livejournal.com]

try me at gmail. with the usual elvinborn. My main forestgold account got so overrun by spam that if I did get it, I must have deleted it with the other 70+ messages I get every day
