Chris Marquette Message Board

I love Seth!  I'm so glad he's a cool guy as well as a funny and talented and smart guy.

Aly's Veronica Mars ep wasn't all that great as far as Aly content goes.  You didn't miss much.  I don't watch that show either, so I was kinda bored.  I also tend to shy away from sitcoms.  I prefer dramas.  Especially ones centered around characters and families.  I don't care much for cop shows or gimmick shows --- unless they are heavy on character.  Thats' what it's all about for me.   You mentioned Medium before.  That's probably my favorite drama right now.   Even though it's a gimmick show, it's a wonderfully character and family driven show.  That's what I like.

I am ultra-picky when it comes to sitcoms.  How I met your Mother is above average.  It's very clever and the dialog is whip-smart.  If you get a chance, check it out some time.  Did you ever watch Freaks & Geeks?  Really one of the best comedy/drama hour long shows in decades.  The guy that played Nick on F&G is Aly's fiance in How I Met Your Mother.  And Neal Patrick Harris steals the show almost weekly.

That would be hilarious!  Do it!  Out of sequence.  With no page numbers.  LOL! My fax is 404-250-9409.

TeeJay, I wanna talk over email about the Butterflies timeline.  I have some issues and some suggestions.  Email me at the Yahoo address, OK?

Deb

Dudes, I am so up too late tonight!  But Joan and Adam are talking to me and Grace just showed up too.  This is very frustrating because I've gotta go to bed.  But I'm finally figuring out a new chapter of this fic, I think.  I hope.  I haven't been able to get on the site all night and I was jonesing.  And then, finally, as I was about to shut down and go to bed, I'm here.  But I cannot stay.

Good night all.  Hopefully, I'll get on with the reclamation in my dreams and wake with new ideas tomorrow.

Deb

PS: How do you post pics here again?  I'm not sure how long I can wait to post "my" Linus.  And Anne, you should post yours soon too.  We should each get to choose one initial pic for our launch of the countdown.  It's only fair, right?

Damn, shrams, you are so exactly right.  Beautifully put.  Thanks so much for saying it so succinctly.

Deb

Beautiful!

People that go see this movie expecting it to laud Ep I may be in for a surprise.  Ep I is so beside the point!  These characters have very little idea what to expect from Ep I as the story goes along.  All they've got is the usual Internet speculation and rumor.  How are they supposed to know the movie's gonna be considered not so great?

It's just as silly to write off Fanboys based on the fact that one didn't like Ep I as it is to write of the ROTN remake because one does not believe such a "classic" (barf!) could ever be remade.  God, why do the people at IMDb have to be so stupid?  And redundant?  I'm just so sick of it all.

As a non-Star Wars fan, I can say that I couldn't really care less about Ep I.  But I would hope that if I found out I was dying tomorrow, some of my friends might load me up in their car and drive me to Kyle Newman's place to see an early cut of Fanboys!

Deb

Yep. he's goofbally all right.  Witness The Body Shake.  LOL!

Hey, shrams, there's another thing we have in common.  I love Aly too!  I didn't bother with Date Movie but I did see all the Am Pie movies.  I liked her in all of them, but the movies are just trashy and stupid.  Do you watch How I Met Your Mother?  It was so cute this week with Lilly and Barney.

Deb

Well said.

Deb

I hear ya shrams.  You are going to see some silly posts here from time to time, but we hope we won't ever get cluttered with the kind of mindless chattering you see most places.  And I hope you won't mind our brand of silliness.  Maybe even find it amusing yourself.  If you ever saw some of the stuff we did over at Meslissa's board, you understand.  We do drool.  But at least we have a twisted sense of humor about it.  And we drool creatively.  In the usual ways, fics and fan art.  And also through TeeJay's shirts and towels.

And we do have our very serious side too.  It's kind of fitting that our board would be both serious and silly.  That's who Chris is. 

Having just spent a little bit of time with the guy, we know Chris is just a regular dude.  A very talented, very handsome and charming regular dude, sure.  But a dude.  For myself, I can say that I have new respect for him.  The genial and genuine way he conducts himself with all the people around him makes it obvious that he's simply a good guy.  I hope that all the movies he has coming out next year will raise his profile hugely and everyone will see how unique he is.  But even if he explodes, he'll still be just this really cool guy.

Do I have a crush?  Sure.  But I've had crushes for as long as I can remember.  Nothing new here at all.  Is that all it is?  Certainly not.  I'm just so moved by what Chris does onscreen.  The emotions he evokes.  We've seen so much already and yet I feel that we've just scratched the surface.  He's a complete actor, but all his colors are not yet on display. I think, just wait.  Just wait.  You'll all see.  There is nothing he can't do.  And he will do it all.

Deb

Yeah, the IMDb boards suck.  I can't believe how much they suck.  The JoA board over there is pretty decent, but it's an exception.  At least people on there talk about what they like about the show.  I just wish we could get the garbage cleaned off Chris's MB and the one for ROTN.  It would be so much fun to talk about the making of that movie while it's in progress instead of going there and reading post after post after post about how you can't remake a classic.  Balderdash!  First, ROTN is hardly Citizen Kane.  Second, I hate remakes too, but Hollywood loves them and they're not going away because a couple of ingrates rail against them on a movie board.  Do they really think their blather has any power at all?  If so, they are far more delusional than they accuse us of being.

And finally, let me just say that yeah, I think Chris is dead-sexy.  But so what?  Does that mean I think there's any chance in Hades that I would ever have the opportunity to act on that?  Can you say hell no?!?  I'm old and fat, he's young and beautiful.  End of subject.
