I loved Michael Welch in Twilight. I can't imagine anyone else as Mike now. smile

Well, to be honest I had little interest in seeing it when I did the first time. I thought it'd be a stupid overrated teen thing but decided to see it anyways because everyone here talked about it so fondly. Thankfully, I was pleasantly surprised. I ended up seeing it again after I had read all the books too which was a much better approach.

I saw the movie first, so when I read the book I noticed that the two probably shouldn't be compared. The book is so much better if you compare them but the movie sticks to the majority of the key stuff. The camera angles were awful at some times making me insanely dizzy but overall I thought that it was great in it's own way. I thought it was one of the better book to movie things I've seen although it wasn't exact.

Hopefully you'll get to see it soon to see what you think.

I just saw a video on youtube where he showed off his muscles yesterday, that's why I asked. I'm amazed at his accomplishment even though I'm not personally attracted to him.

I ended up reading this one a few days ago. Didn't like it either. roll

#58 Re: Square Eyes » Twilight (contains spoilers for all books and the movies) » 07 Dec 08 :: 03:35

I saw Twilight on Tuesday night and have already managed to finish the book and New Moon even with a crazy work schedule. So in other words, I joined a new fandom this week. smile

Well because of that there are those wonderful Sears card questions (Would you like this on your Sears card today? Do you have a Sears card? Would you like to apply for a Sears card?). I only ask the first one because otherwise I'd go completely crazy and today would have been a complete nightmare. Anyways, I wasn't employed when Sears took over, but I'm sure it wasn't that good of a thing. Some customers have told me that their interest rates on their Sears card skyrocketed during that change but who knows if that's true? Not saying it isn't possible, it's just that sometimes you don't know the whole story.

Sorry to hear about hard times for your friend. That's just awful. sad

Since June, so it was my first Black Friday there. It was the normal problems - sales prices not showing up on the registers, customers misreading signs, and all the other slightly annoying things - only at a faster pace and with people who obviously didn't get enough sleep the night before.

#61 Re: Off Topic Stuff » Do you shop on Black Friday? » 28 Nov 08 :: 22:56

I worked a 5:45 AM to 3 PM shift today at Kmart. No fights or deaths to report but people were still rude and we were extremely busy all day. Man am I glad to be home. smile

#62 Re: Off Topic Stuff » Do you shop on Black Friday? » 18 Nov 08 :: 17:57

I've always stayed home on Black Friday, but it looks like I may have to work that day this year. Yuck!

I saw a clip of McCain on Ellen's show. Who told him that was a good idea? Ellen did a great job of maintaining her cool, though.

Covering the internet gossip about the campaigns wasn't enough? roll Guess not.

Oh well. At least the election is over with a, in my opinion, good result.

#67 Re: Guestbook » vote! » 06 Nov 08 :: 01:32

A whopping total of 349 electoral college votes and win of the popular vote. Yep, I'd call that crushing him.

I expected it to be kind of close. Boy was I wrong!

#68 Re: Guestbook » vote! » 05 Nov 08 :: 14:27

big_smile It's a good day to be an American.

It's going to be fun to see the reaction around my (mostly liberal) university. And finally the robocalls and mail from the RNC and Ohio Republican Party will stop!

#71 Re: Joan of Arcadia » Random JoA Stuff... » 04 Nov 08 :: 16:41

I think I should have made that more clear. I hated that he left like that after yelling at Judith, but I get why he couldn't stay. He was probably left with some bad 'ripples' from leaving like that and Joan felt like he abandoned her for awhile, when that wasn't what he meant it as. But she gets it later on, so it was all okay.

#72 Re: Joan of Arcadia » Random JoA Stuff... » 04 Nov 08 :: 02:58

Yay! I did. big_smile

I hate all the fighting in the episode and that nothing was learned from it. And if someone told me that Friday Night was inspired by Joss Whedon's writing, I wouldn't be surprised. I do really love Friday Night, except the Adam walking out on Joan when she's with Judith. But for me he redeems himself in the end of the episode. I honestly can't imagine what it would have been like for Adam if he would have been in the room with Joan when Judith died.

#73 Re: Joan of Arcadia » Random JoA Stuff... » 04 Nov 08 :: 02:16

I completely agree with you. He went from being so in love with her to cheating on her with someone he barely knew. I hardly think that the logical step.

But there are so many scenes that I love out of that season 2. Some of POV, for example. I love the conversation between Adam and Judith (although, not technically a Joan/Adam moment, but they are talking about her). And who doesn't love the end scene?

#74 Re: Joan of Arcadia » Random JoA Stuff... » 03 Nov 08 :: 16:23

Season 2 was a mine field for the Joan/Adam relationship. It seems to be that there are only a few episodes in it where they don't fight or have some kind of problem.

Wow, reading over some of my posts it makes it sound like I hate JoA. Some of the good parts were really good though. Like the end of 'Romancing the Joan' (even though I don't like what it took to get them there).

#75 Re: Joan of Arcadia » Random JoA Stuff... » 03 Nov 08 :: 04:15

I don't know why that's supposedly entertaining.

I like happy Adam and Joan, even though they didn't get a lot of airtime in the series. tongue
