a grab bag of a post  
My friends and I were out Friday at the lamest bar known to man. It was a friend of a friends' birthday, so we took her out. Of course my stupid self didn't know her dad was the mayor of my town. I am made of epic fail. She's fun, but I wish I'd known before. That way I wouldn't have done half the things I did. It was her first time in a club so we took her to a tame one. No gay bars. :)

My grandparents are on vacation again, which means I'm cooking Thanksgiving Slapsgiving dinner for the family... If you don't hear from me it's because I burned my house down. Seriously. I didn't know it took days to defrost a turkey and I'm thinking about taking my mini-blow torch to it.

VID RECS:
[info]astartexx's Jesus Christ [alt: Wood and Nails] (Supernatural) - Every choice made by the vidder feels right from the black and white to the editing choices to the clip choice to the framing to the use of the lyrics to everything. It makes my heart squeeze tight. After this vid I think I need a hug as much as Dean does.

[info]butterfly's Digging the Heroine (Heights) - It's understated, like the movie itself. The vid weaves come of the threads from the movie together.

gwyneth and jo's I Remember (Charlie Jade) - Striking and stark visuals with a harsh mood. Don't let lack of fandom knowledge keep you away.

Eunice's And She Was (Doctor Who) - This is the Rose I remember and love.
Eunice's Don't Touch That Dial (Doctor Who) - This is my Martha.

Jessie's The River (Angel/Buffy the Vampire Slayer) - Smart use of the lyrics and quick editing with the drumbeats.

[info]kazbaby's Eurydiceverse (Stargate: SG-1) - A layered and moody vid with so much under the surface.

kitty's On Top (Supernatural) - Great use of outtakes and other footage to create a cute and vaguely homicidal vid with a heart of gold.

Speranza's Lifetime Piling Up (Stargate: Atlantis) - Nice jump cutting, witty use of the lyrics, overlays, and creation of mood. It's adorable and endearing.

I could listen to it over and over again.

Oh em gee at the David Hewlett baby awesomeness. That had me ROTFL so hard! :D

And thanks for the vid recs. I just love the way you phrased both the DW recs. It was just sweet. I dunno. ;)

:) I'm so inlove with your icon. It's awesome to the power of 3.

I'm a recc-ing machine. :)

I'm all about the fandom smoosh. ;)

It's interesting to see how similar the design of BSG vipers are to SGA darts.

Yes...it is. ;) But the darts are pointier. :P

And carry far less hotter pilots.

What are you talking about, woman??? Steve the Wraith was one smexy beast!

I suppose I must agree. Michael did something to me.

Omg. That first episode with him...*melts*
kiki_miserychic[info]kiki_miserychic on November 22nd, 2007 04:19 am (UTC)
Oh my god yes. It took until he was sparring with Teyla for me to figure out he was a Wraith. The putting his hand over her chest/sternum was hot, but also a BIG FAT STINKY WRAITH warning sign.

Guh. I need to rewatch. Dammit! I only brought S1 with me to Thangsgiving. Grrrr.

I was actually spoiled for that ep, so I spent the whole time sort of waiting for him to figure it out. But yes. That was an awesome moment. Also awesome is his connection to Teyla. My favorite is when he's mind fucking her to let him go at the end. He's all like, "you're not like the rest of them" and it echoes, and she's like a zombie, setting him free. HOT.

I hope he comes back for later episodes. There's so much they could do with him.

Yay recs! I can't find Jessie's "The River" on zer site though.
kiki_miserychic[info]kiki_miserychic on November 22nd, 2007 05:21 pm (UTC)
Silly me. It's posted in a message board, but she hasn't updated her site. I'm in the process of getting a link available to everyone.
kiki_miserychic[info]kiki_miserychic on November 23rd, 2007 10:33 pm (UTC)
Updated link for The River.
cupidsbow[info]cupidsbow on November 27th, 2007 03:26 pm (UTC)
Yay. Thank you.
