Lol! I'm not particularly afraid of snakes. We went and saw The Descent this past weekend, and that was truly frightening, so my tolerance has been built up, hehe. I'm sure having a nice beer buzz will make things interesting, too.

Oh just make sure you have your husband handy to clutch. See I am used to snakes as my brother loves them and has had them since we were little, but I was still freaked out by the movie:)It's great though and you will totally love it!

Hee hee! MSG is having a freaky Friday moment :)

I don't think any movie has ever had the hype Snakes on a Plane has. Ever. It's a saga that's been rumbling on the net for so very long. Hard to believe it's finally reaching cinemas. Sounds like a fun movie too. And I was so sure I'd avoid it!

it's just what it says it is a B horror movie with an A actor...you'll like it. It's nice to see someone make a movie just for funny and not to advance their career or to "inform " the public or any higher purpose. It's just a fun thrill ride:)

CaliforniaKaylee you're coming to Austin in September? That's cool. What conference is it? I'm a techie. Would I be interested in your presentation? Does it cost a bunch to go to this conference? It would be pretty cool to go see a browncoat talk.

You know, I think some day Serenity and Snakes on a Plane will be studied together in one unit in university courses. The role the internet played in both is pretty interesting, but the difference between the Browncoats as a single focused group, and the wide but not very deep "fandom" of SoaP serve as an interesting contrast.

Zeek, I sent you a private message. I may try to slip some Browncoat references into my talk, at least in the way I talk. Anything more, and I'd worry about being mobbed. Probably more than a couple of fans in a crowd that tech-oriented.

Err... bugrug, did you PM me? are the PMs down? (I'm a patient guy, i'm just asking, cause if you did, then PMs are probably down along with notification.)

I don't quite understand the appeal of SoaP (but that has to be THE best acronym ever). It's a movie.... with apparently one character, no concievable arc or character development (cause the only people besides Jackson are all seen dying)...... que? was? what?

If I was one of those people who went and saw movies, i'd see Step Up, i really liked Save the Last Dance and such. And i'm all for new acting blood.

Well I'm about to put on the first "Pirates of the Carbohydrates" DVD before I see the latest one. Hopefully tomorrow. Just serenaded Desktophippie on another thread because of those gorgeous images of Inara's back she posted for me during my lunch hour the other day. And I just read my post in the "Other Religions Thread" and realized I spelled the word believe wrong through my enter dialogue. When are they going to put spell checkers on these message boards.

Hear that Microsoft.
I just made you another billion with that idea.

Just realized I spelled the word "hear" wrong. I think I type to fast. Have to do less typing and more editing.

Good Night Everyone;

Tristan I think I'm having the same problem with Email notification. So you are not alone with this problem. Or is it, you are alone because of this problem? I'm confused.

Seriously I haven't received any notifications and I know people are posting on threads I'm in.

In the past I would get notifications for replies when I never even posted to the thread the reply indicated.

Did that last sentence make any sense?

I guess it evens out.

Traveler - you so make the kind of sense I do... or (as I like to call it) "I make the kind of sense that doesn't" ...bit of a Joss-ism that I think!

Come back soon Phoenix Rose - I just came home from dinner so I'm full and sleepy and I'll have to go to bed soon as I'm running on empty!

I did receive a PM from a Fireflyfan today - so it might be intermittent (the worst kind of glitch to repair...) or maybe selective in whom it plays up for... nah - definitely just intermittent! You guys are way too shiney!

hmmmm... pondering here - I wouldn't ask a SO to give up a hobby they were passionate about, though I would hope that if we were having a family they would take that into consideration and work out the risks and priorities. Then again I cannot think of anything so terrible that I'd be waiting by the phone...

I myself only have creative hobbies, the most dangerous might be bush walking (combined with nature photography) so I guess it I wouldn't like anyone asking me to give up my creative outlets, and therefor wouldn't expect anyone to give up theirs... make sense? (What about you Traveler??? Does it make sense to you????)

And Tristan... I loved my purple carnation on the last thread!!! it made my day!! Thank you!

Hmmmm... longish post there - I'll be back soon! Magda x x x

quick question's, when did clubbing get rubbish?

when did it stop being about dancing and start being about pulling?

when did getting drunk become and end of itself instead of a fun side-effect?

when did the music get so terrible?

and when did the atmosphere get so...just, not right? =S

I'm of the belief that you can't change people, that they can only change themselves. I'd need a very, very good excuse to try and talk a SO out of a dangerous hobby. I mean, unless their life were in pretty immediate danger I wouldn't see myself as having the right to make any demands. Maybe if we had kids or something.

I'd probobly be gently scoffing and dissaproving though. That's the wife's privilage

On a totally different note - I found some hippie smilies!!!

Odds- I'm not sure what happened to clubbing. Somehow it has mutated from fun group of friends going out dancing, enjoying life, etc. into this bizzare everyone get as trashed as possible and see who can hook up with random stranger for random sex act thing... I blame t.v.( they cancelled Firefly and promoted the OC thereby killing the morals of our youth)

Snakes on a Plane was meant to be a B horror movie. There is no point, just snakes(on a plane) and lots of scares, fun quick comebacks,and thrills. It's a popcorn movie.

My sweet borther in law is here with us. He drove 7 hours after a long day's work on Friday( arriving at about midnight) and will return on Sunday afternoon, just to spend time with his brother (my husband) on his birthday... How sweet is that:)Plus he brought his dog Kamas to play with our dogs...it's their first doggy sleepover and they are having a ball:)

Oh Jailbait... I remember when clubbing was fun! Dancing the night away with your friends was the name of the game and I liked getting just enough alcohol into me to throw caution to the wind, but not enough to fall over, puke or pass out... now that seems to be the only thing people do with alcohol...

You're so right DTH - it's all because of the Fox executive taking Firefly off... I blame him for a lot of things... the serious decline in clubbing... the skyrocketing price of petrol... the buttons on my remote control sticking... he is one evil dude... (and I am a pacifist )

I've been hearing and reading about Snakes on a Plane for so long now I think I might have to go and see it... it opens here next week I think, but I will have a tough time finding someone to go with me - all my friends are completely uninterested...

Glad you're back gorgeous PR! It's disconcerting all the gorgeous ladies who could do Wonder Woman justice, isn't it? I think Linda Carter is one of the most gorgeous ladies around - Joss should give her a say in who gets to play the role she immortalised!

well - sorry to love you and leave you, but I must go to bed - I've done that 'oh-crap-it's-1.32am-again thing... good night all you wonderful, shiney FFFfriends! - Magda x x x

I come back to say hi, and everyone is gone. No Forsaken shakin' their thang, no Imponderables ponderin'.

I hate working Saturdays - all the freaks who are safely locked in offices (or boxes, whatever) during the week are let loose to roam. And they bring their evil spawn with them...

Dangerous pursuits - husband climbs. He talked me into it, too, so... Oh, and he's scared of snakes, big time, so we won't be seeing that little film.

For some reason, clubbing just makes me think of Jayne with a nine-iron and a horrific grin (ohh, plot bunny...)

Well anyway. No one else seems to care much about my picks.

We care, Rose! Um.... WB might not, but we do!!!!

Though to whoever said Lynda Carter immortalized the role, I disagree. I'm not a big WW fan (never touched a comic of it or seen the show or anything), but I did some research on it awhile back, and the short lived series really cant and shouldnt compare to the half century of WW comics. Lynda Carter may be the only person who's ever played the live action role, but... as far as i could discern, the TV show... the movie joss is writing is not based on that show.

Anyway, I read a whole discussion on another board, and a few people kept insisting "No, whoever plays her must have blue eyes because Linda Carter does!" And things like that. Bah, that's silly. It's true she was the only one who's done it so far, but a few people would argue that it's never been done right.

Gina Torres. I don't actually believe she will get the part, or is even in consideration for it, but, I'm thinking that she's the perfect fit. Fits in well, even with the ambiguous skin tone, vis a vis the sister. No doubt she qualifies for athleticism and, well, general hotness and smarts.

Still, are those collagened {sp.?} lips? Cuz, I just ain't into that, or silicone, for that matter. Praise be whom/whatever for the lack of silicone, yep.

Morning, all!
Ah, 'tis a glorious Saturday afternoon...sun shining, birds singing, thumpers going by every now and then...life is good!

Traveler, I think it would make me alone amongst others, as many are sharing this problem. Yeah, that sounds about right!

Magdalena, the carnation; my pleasure. I'm still trying to find one of the deep purple ones...

Odds, I haven't been "clubbing" in a long time, but on the few chances I do get to go out, I am not happy. I am inclined to agree with what you say...music is crap, people are just there to get drunk and carry on. I prefer having gatherings over at my house nowadays...I know the clientelle, and I don't have far to go for crash space!

DTH, love the hippie icons!

MSG, I'll see if the wife is interested in Snakes...sounds like a fun way to kill some time!

Wonder Woman? Hadn't really given it much thought...I'm still aggrieved over the fact that Summer Glau is not going to be playing Alice... Sarah Michelle Gellar my muscular buttocks!

aye tristan, i know what you mean, s'nicer to have people over, problem is i still keep thinking what it was when it WAS good going out, when you could just dance and not give a monkeys, trying to find it again is proving, well, frustrating.

sorry for not posting more PR, only getting on for the occasional escape from this meal >.< (the annoying thing is, after all the effort i put into my internet connection, my dads half-meg broadband seems to load this page faster then mine...now that's just irritating)

I went 'clubbing' the other night - well, i went to see a band in a bar (The Presets, yey!) and i have a different complaint - why do all of these damn bitchy girls think that they have a right to look down on you?!?!?!

The whole place (Korova in L'pool, 'case your interested) was snided with them - they can be attractive or not, but they seem to think that because they may dress trendier or 'know the owner' or whatever they can look down on you (what happened to being friendly?)
I don't know why i care - most of them were so off their t*** on various substances they'd have mush their brains by their late twenties, and they probably can't feel what their faces are doing.

And we were there for the music, and we danced and we were mildly tiddly, and the band was great, it was one of the best club nights i've had for a long while. But I know what you mean about people just spoiling things - like the wazzock who, despite being almost 7 foot tall had a pressing need to always be in front of everyone else, the idiot girls who think they are so utterly marvellous doing little dances and hand signals like they know something you don't know, when really they just look too drunk and very silly, and the token chav who manages to slip past security and get in to try it on with every girl there Like a small dog who chewed his way through the viagra stash. Oh, and the desperate girl who's dressed in next to nothing and dancing provocatively for attention.

I think basically the problem with clubs is that other people go to them.

I suppose I don't see that side of it so much seryn, don't know if it's because male's in clubs don't tend to look down on other male's as see them as competition, and the lasses don't tend to look down on bloke's so much as other girls (maybe i go to less bitchy clubs, but if they'll let me in then i doubt it ) but i do wish i could go out more often, just for the music, but the one band playing in edinburgh I really DO want to see live, always manage to have gig's when I'm working...well, one day, and then i'll be there for the music alone. Plus side to them behaving in that manner is it give's you all manner of reason to giggle, although there might be a school of thought which puts that alongside 'stooping to their level', if no-one else consider's that a pretty horrific turn of phrase.

the local chav sounds like a cause for much amusement, especially the description, rather neat

I. Don't. Understand?

Confusion reigns.

I don't think I'll ever understand the complexities of random message boards, fansites, normal people and asparagus. Slimy kind.

That is all.

Rusco out.

Did I hear Alice? Just love the game, and I was thrilled the first time I heard there might be a movie (although it seems to have clogged down a bit in the red tape of hollywood). Then I heard SMG was getting the part,
Summer would be a thousand times better! Anyway, just glad that someone else but me has heard of the movie

You can’t stop the Signal.
Keep spreading the word about Firefly!

Had a strangly Firefly-related mini-vacation just now - went down to visit the inlaws, who have cable, and without trying saw:
Everyone's favorite bountyhunter, a very young Jubal Early (Richard Brooks) as a minor character in an amazingly bad slasher flick "Shocker" or something along those lines.
Then I ran into the good doctor while channel surfing - trying to pick the locks of Buffy's sister (Michelle Trachtenberg) on some random Lifetime drama. An endeavor I wholeheartedly aprove of (the dirtybadfun, not Lifetime).
Then I run across Wash (I knew I'd seen that actor before) in that astonishingly bad knights who joust to Queen music movie - which none the less seems quite popular. Then again, so is Charmed, and thats also dreadful.
And then, just when I thought the random FF encounters would end - the 200th ep. of Stargate SG-1. In reference to the SG parody show Extreme Wormhole:
"Who makes a movie out of a show with only 3 episodes?"
"Apparently the DVDs did better than expected"

"Don't put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That's why they're called revolutions. People die, and nothing changes." -Terry Pratchett "Night Watch"

"No power in the 'verse can stop me!"


OK! Just managed to get online for a while and there's so little happening... that happens when you live a day ahead of everyone else I guess... you're all out partying or sleeping off the Saturday partying aren't you?

Still - partying makes me commnet - Seryn, you're a Liverpudlian! I didn't realise! I lived in Stoke-on-Trent for some time last century ( that really sounds old) and usually went much fruther afield to party - did get to Liverpool one weekend! Didn't get to the place you mentioned but I think we saw a good band... hmmmm memory plays tricks now... I also made it to Chester, Elizabethan city with hot night spots - that was weird for an Aussie girl! Machester - actually I only ever saw football and nightspots in Manchester! And I think I went to Knutsford once - hence I understand the 'Knutsford City Limits' song by Robbie Williams and have to explain to others that those of us who lived in Tunstall (yeah - Robbie and I were neighbours...) would go out of town to club and I think he's been banned from ever doing that agin in the town of Knutsford!!

Hey GrrArg - I am impressed at your Firefly-related weekend - LOL at the comment about 'it did better on DVD than expected'. I always thought of Alan Tudyk in 28 days when he was upset that his plant had died and was begging the shop assistant to tell him it wasn't his fault! I obviously haven't seen that bad knights film... Queen music you say? Might have to see it then...

Gorgeous Phoenix Rose - despair not - I will debate Wonder Woman with you any time - I really only think of Linder Carter as the immortal WW for me because I was a kid when she was on TV and that was the only WW I ever saw... until there was an animated series with all these superheroes - something like 'League of Heroes'? Anyone? Tell me moe about this Alice movie coz I have a friend who is almost obsessed with Alice in Wonderland... if that's what it's based on? I did a photo shoot for him where I was Alice in a modern world-view of Wonderland ... back in my swelt and gorgeous days as an actor... (*sigh*) Hey let us know your picks for WW!!

Thank you for caring enough to still look for tha deep purple carnation Tristan - as always you make my day!! Enjoy your coffee (from one addict to another)!

Jailbait (it's stuck now) - is it really that bleak in Edinburgh? I always imagine it to be a centre of culture and partying - though I have never been there myself (about the only bit of Scotland I didn't manage to get to ) Being from Melbourne we're always hearing about Edinburgh in connection with the commedy festival - as we have one here of international signifigance also. Many of my comedic friends have either visited Edingugh or actually performed there on occassion...

Hmmmm - that was a long post - will check back soon! Mwaaah - Magdalena x x x
