Oh, what to say about it? Perfect doesn’t even begin to cover it. And at the same time was so incredibly heartbreaking. I mean, obviously I’m as excited as I can be about Castle and Beckett finally being honest to each other about their feelings, so happy that i would be impossible for me put it into words and be fair to my feelings aoisdjasa it was so beautifully written, every detail, every dialog, perfect. I’m a happy mother fucker, without a doubt. And one that is so excited about the future of those two that I feel like just lying on the floor waiting for the new season in complete lust and beautiful agony.
But, on the other hand, we have the whole Ryan “selling out” Javi and Kate -which, sorry, but I’m completely with him on this one- and the repercussions that that is going to have in their dynamic and relationship. Thinking about that… it breaks my heart :(
And Kate quitting the job? I’m still not sure about that one. She will be back, we all know that, but still, i was shocked as fucking hell. I’m very excited about the new season, after all. There’s so many things to look forward, too.
It seems that Castle was one of the few season finales this year that i found really satisfying. I’m pretty much mad at every fucking show these days except for Castle and a couple of others that were lucky enought not to get canned.
My thoughts about Hawkeye and Black Widow (how I will always picture them to be, how they are most likely going to be even in the movie, and how I might just really prefer them to be):
Agreed. 100%.
Watched a couple of episodes today. I dig it so far. Jake and Laura, okay? I’m a happy That 70s show and Greek fan. Plus, Chelsea. I like her and her comedy. Ranting after the cut.
Me fucking too. Now Paget is leaving again and their relationship didn’t evolve shit this season. Are they supposed to be just very good friends? Come on, those scenes meant a lot more than that. I know it was about showing that their friendship was recovering after Morgan feeling betrayed but I won’t accept that it was just that. Don’t get me wrong, I completely appreciate their friendship and I think is not only beautiful but fundamental for them to work as co-workers but I think we can all agree -shippers or no shippers- that that scene was a hell of a lot more than just showing friendship.
I fail to see or grasp a lot of things this season and I think it’s because they toyed so much with Prentiss and J.J. leaving (not saying is the writers’ fault, it is just what it is) that now everything seems just dragged by the ears. Of course we have amazing story lines for Hotch, Rossi and even Garcia, and I get that, they are all staying. But I thought they would focus on Emily a little bit more considering they are going to drag her away from the team again (and at this point I’m thinking they are gonna kill her ‘cause I don’t see other way for her to leave the guys)

Oh, I always had this idea in my head that -in his own special way- Chris loved Haley. At first he felt attracted to her because of her art but I always got the feeling that for Chris, Haley was the “what if” girl, you know? And now that he’s back in Tree Hill and in Haley’s life, he’s feeling the residues of what he felt. I think, in a way, he really loves Haley and the woman she is. Not saying that he’s gonna make a move or anything like that, he knows very well he doesn’t stand a chance.
On the other hand, I would love for Chris and Haley to be friends. You know, close friends. They have outstanding chemistry. Although, I don’t think there’s enough time for that to really happen and that relationship to develop.
Oh, and by the way, Chris was the thing that made me start watching one tree hill again. I was done with the series in the middle of the 7th season. Too many things that make no sense to me and other that are just plane boring (I couldn’t care less about Quinn and Clay, for example)
Fuck yeah. On this matter, I’m Team Owen all the way. I need Teddy to get the fuck out of my show. That character always manages to screw everything, with every fucking decision she makes. I understand her, don’t get me wrong. But right now she’s just annoying as fuck to me.

I’ll warn you right up front, this is a rant - you may not agree with it, but I’m getting it off my chest anyway.
I’m a huge fan of Madonna’s, and at age 48, I can relate to her. Not just as a woman, or an older woman, but because I’ve been a fan of hers for 28 years. It may sound corny, but I feel like I grew up with her. At 53, she’s only a few years older than I am.
So here it is, point blank - it’s absolutely making me nuts when I see reviews of the Superbowl Halftime show (where, she was amazing, IMHO), where she’s being referred to as “aging pop singer Madonna”. ”Aging” - really? That’s what they want to reduce this smart, talented woman down to?
You almost never hear older superstars like Paul McCartney or Mick Jagger, both of whom are ages older than Madonna, referred to as “Aging rockstar Paul McCartney” or “Aging Rocker Mick Jagger.” Okay - to be fair, you hear it once in a great while, but not all that much. Why not? Because they’re men, because they deserve more respect somehow than Madonna does? Women aren’t supposed to age - they’re supposed to remain the perpetual hot, firm, toned 20-somethings that everyone thinks they should be.
Or - here’s a better example if you like - Prince. Have you ever, ever heard anyone refer to Prince as “Aging rockstar Prince”? Nope, of course you haven’t. Would it surprise you to know that Prince and Madonna were both born within two months of each other? But it’s okay to imply that she should be put out to pasture, but not him.
The remarks calling her “grandma” and that “it’s time for the old gal to hang it up” are insulting - it’s ageism, sure, which can be lobbed against men as well as women. But for her, it’s also sexism, which is a double-edged sword for all women in Hollywood or in the rock industry. It’s outrageous that the general attitude about Madonna in the past handful of years is, that because she’s over 40, that it’s time for her to sit the hell down and and shut up. The woman got up at the Superbowl halftime show, and not only danced and performed her ass off with a pulled hamstring (that was revealed Monday morning, and was quickly ignored - it’s much more fun to call her old), but she did freaking cartwheels! I mean - come on, credit where credit is due.
I know, she’s always been criticized - from age 25 when she first burst onto the scene, she’s been criticized. She’s bold, she’s unapologetic, she’s afraid of no one, and she has the goods to back it up. It’s appalling that in 2012, there are still plenty of folks who think a woman should “mind her place”. And that’s been her lot in life since 1984, unfortunately. But then to throw in that she’s past her prime because she’s not a kid anymore is probably the most insulting thing you can say about her.
The simple fact is - we’re all aging. It’s the great equalizer - it happens (god willing) to all of us. To reduce anybody down to a number, especially an entertainer who still has a lot more to give, pretty much sucks.
These are pretty much my feeling towards all this “Madonna is too old” crap. But, i don’t find it weird or new, sadly. They’ve been doing the same thing to Cher and oh, so many other artists (all women, of course) for a long time now. Sexist ageism is vomit inducing to me, yet it’s something that seems to be acceptable by popular demand in a way that I can’t simply fucking understand. I know that people love to just demean celebrities, they love to build them up and then tear them down but this is something I will never understand. Why is it OK for her to be bold, loud, unapologetic, strong and honest when she was young but suddenly now that she hit 50 she needs to go back to her home and drink tea all day while behaving “according to her age” (whatever that is)?
No, really. Could anyone enlighten me? I don’t get it, I would love to read an explanation or a justification.
Oh god, do we really need a prequel? I get the doing a movie thing, that’s diferent. But it’s done. The movie is very good, the graphic novel is perfection itself… do we really need a prequel? Why does every fucking story that gets a little bit popular seems to also get exploitation as a counter part? Well, of course we all know the answer to that: money. And I get that. Or, scratch that. I understand it. That doesn’t change the fact that I think it’s absolutely unnecessary and I don’t want it. Watchmen was a story that was developed, told and that it contains itself the way it is done, creatively is an insult to the wonderful way that it was written to attend a continuation -or a prequel, whatever, let’s call it an abuse.
I would be on board with it 110% if Moore and Gibbons were going to be the captains of the ship and if this was 1987, but sadly that’s not the case. Neither I blame them for that. Watchmen is perfect the way it is. It is one of my favorite books (yes, books, not comic books or graphic novels, to me it falls into the category of books) of all times and it was done 25 years ago. 25 years ago, OK? How about giving us something new? I hate the already growing tendency to renew, reboot or expand existing things that were already over and done with.
Having said that, I’m sure I’m gonna read them anyways. Only as a result of my curiosity. My only wish at this point is that they don’t destroy the characters that I love profoundly and one of the stories that I think, even though was created 25 years ago, holds true and relevant until this very day.
I think he looks like what Rorschach should look under his face. Oh, wait… never mind.

Well, most of the audience out there agreed with you in this one as well. Waste of life this movie. Why would you ever consider remaking Psycho? Why was that a thing that some executives, director, writers and actors considered it was neat to do? or that it would be profitable? or even interesting? WHY?
(via horror-movie-confessions)
Fixed it.
Give this ALL THE NOTES please.
Very well fixed.
I hate these dudes (and girls, girls do it all the time as much as men) that think that just because you like having sex you are a “slut” and therefore not worthy of respect. Stop watching Disney and get out of your fucking hole, get to know people and open your minds for a change. You’ll see there’s a beautiful thing out there called diversity and freedom -to choose who you wanna fuck and how many times you want to do it.

Unlike most fans I thoroughly enjoyed Season 8 of Btvs. Being a dedicated fan is a lot like being in a relationship I believe, lol. Not everything that happens will be perfect, there will be some things that you won’t care for and can’t stand. Other times the amount of happiness just makes you overwhelmingly bubbly. As you go down the road you realize the things you didn’t like and hated had to happen, in order to get where it needed to be. To be who you needed to be.
That’s just life part of life.
I agree with you completely. I see it the same way 100%. I LOVE the eighth season and I’m really liking the ninth so far.
Plus, when you re-watch or re-read those things that you didn’t like, sometimes you understand that those things had a purpose and I find myself not hating them so much. Disliking them, yes, but understanding why they happened.I’m still waiting for the Dawn/Xander thing to make sense, though. Still too recent I guess.To be perfectly honest I actually saw that one coming and I was waiting for it. Especially when I rewatch Season 7. Hints were dropped or sprinkled you could say. The two biggest being ‘Him’ and ‘Potential’ But all throughout Season 8 those two spent a substantial amount of time together. I’m hoping they get through the little rough patch they’re currently going through in Season 9
I TOTALLY SHIP THOSE TWO BTW(Dodges knifes and various fruits.) lol
I can totally see why people would ship them and I agree that when you go back to season 7 you TOTALLY can see it coming. Still, in my mind, those two were always like brother and sister. I see Willow and Xander an extension of Buffy’s family, that’s why I would’ve never even dare to imagine the idea of Xander and Dawn together and that’s why I can’t for the life of me ship them. But, you know, ship and let ship haha i see where you are coming from and I kinda want them to work things out as well. Is like, now that they are together, that idea of the “family” that I had in mind is completely shattered haha (I still see them as a family, only with a different dynamic than before I guess) so, i don’t have any reason to want them to be apart or anything. Plus, they look happy. I like seeing Xander and Dawnie happy. I only said it doesn’t make sense because… well, when it happened I thought i was gonna physically puke, I’m not even kidding (you know, the seeing them as brother and sister thing). But, as we both said before, in a way re-reading and re-watching the seventh season made me understand a lot more about the nature of their relationship. I’m just ranting at this point haha sorry.

Oh I love the reactions to the Madonna’s acceptance speech. They make me laugh my fucking ass off. I read the word narcissistic here and there. Bitches, please, since when being proud of your movie and your work is being narcissistic? Are you kidding me? and then there’s people calling her old. Ageist assholes. Are you being serious or you just can’t think of a better way to try and “offend” her and her fans? I love it, it is funny to me. Yes.
oh, and then i read people asking who “told her” she could do a movie (or ‘another movie’ would be more appropriate since she has a vast career in movies, but whatever, ignorance to the ignorants, i guess) Again, PLEASE, SHE IS THE QUEEN. She never needed anyone to tell her she could or couldn’t do anything.
LOL at the haters.
