Looks like I may have a ton of these, so this is collection 1 of Reflections |
Talk about a movie or television show that you feel has particularly strong writing. Forget the actors and directors and production value and special effects; what property dazzles you with the dialogue and storytelling? TBBT due to it's intense physics vernacular and Bones due to it's intense forensic anthropology vernacular on TOP of a very real and meaningful relationship dynamic. Not saying Penny and .....the guy w/ glasses aren't cute, but Bones and 'Angel' Boreanez are more mature and relatable. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0898266/ and http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460627/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 -------------------------------------- Oi, another variation of this question. Mmmk, I'll bite: It's War Chest Wednesday! Prompt for March 12, 2014 You are invited to spend a week's vacation with a famous person, past or present. Who would you want it to be? Why? ======================== The year is 2024. You are invited to a dinner at the White House in your honor. What is your accomplishment? Seem bland but I'm going with Nobel Prize in Writing and Humanitarian Acts.... I wanna write a pivotal 'game-changing' work of art and do great things with the proceeds..... |
It's War Chest Tuesday! Prompt for March 11, 2014 Have you ever been betrayed by someone you trusted? Tell us about it. Well, the most dramatic and personal response would probably be my Dad. But don't feel like going there SO I'll say a friend back in high school. Though it wasn't quite purposeful betrayal since I introduced her to my ex....I just didn't expect them to get quite so physical so quickly....... =========== Are there any long-running shows you've seen every single episode of? No one-season wonders here; let's say a show has to have a run of at least 48 episodes to count. If you haven't seen every episode of a show, tell me about one you'd like to consider watching from beginning to end. Has TBBT had 48 episodes? I think so. I rented all the series from the library. Like everyone, I heart Sheldon and his lovable bunch of geeks. Wish I were Penny. Of course it feels like I've seen every episode of Family Guy, shame there's not much more MacFarlane can do with that show, time to move on. Ummmm.....seen a ton of That 70's show, Desperate Housewives, Walker Texas Ranger, Touched By an Angel, Bones, Fresh Prince, Cosby Show Saved by the bell, Boy meets world, 7th heaven, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, The boondocks...that wasn't 48 shows but I woulda watched them all! Plus a ton others from childhood I'm probably forgetting. O! REality TV, RR/RW on MTV, Hoarders, and Animal Cops to name the top three...... ----------------------- Let's have some fun.. You returned home to find a DEAR JOHN letter oddly enough from your favorite piece of furniture. Inquiring minds want to know what the letter said. We are looking forward to seeing where you go with this. |
"I recently rediscovered the usefulness of the library (*Blush*) even after working here all year, and began looking more and more in depth at the covers of books. What book are you reading now? If you aren't currently reading a book, what is the next book you want to read, or what is the last book you finished? What drew you to that book? Look specifically at the cover design, the back cover, and the inside flaps. What makes this book one that would stand out on a library shelf?" I just gotta say I'm saddened Emily ![]() ![]() I ALWAYS look at book covers. I'd have to say the cover art of a new book by an author I've never heard of is 80% of what makes me pick it up, and that's being modest. I great cover goes a looooooong way. That's how I fell in love with the Kate Daniels and Patricia Biggs series among others. As of last night/this morning I started reading Kiera Cass' Selection series and I AM IN LOOOOOOVE! "Note: Remember falling in love for the first time? ..." As I was perusing http://clc.lib.overdrive.com/ the cover gripped my attention and when I saw she was a NYT Best Seller, not to mention the 50 ppl long waiting list, I decided to give it a try. Glad I did. Contemporary covers are the best and most interesting for/to me. Last book I finished was Lynsay Sands' VMW as previously mentioned in...."5: Book, Play, Talk" ![]() ![]() --------------------------------- What's the best adaptation of a book (or book series) you've seen? I want to say Twilight, but that's mainly because they did the ending in a MUCH more satisfying manner than the author did. I was mad at Meyer for that lame ending. All this boiling tension and both sides just WALK away!?!!?!? really1?!@@!@1.The movie ending was sooooo much better. Other than that....others are ok....i agree with Annette ![]() ----------------------------------------- Did the Blog City prompt on the wrong day....yeaaaaa "9 - Commuting News is for The Birds" ![]() |
