Makes me glad I am still boycotting the SciFi channel.

[tiamatlady]

Stargate SG-1 baby - I'm their bitch.
*sighs*

After they cancelled farscape they were dead to me.

[tiamatlady]

werd.
I do hear that - and if SG-1 goes down I migh tbe there with you.

[pat-man-ta.livejournal.com]

SG-1 set us up the bomb!

New Farscape miniseries in the fall though.

yeah, it sucked.

it sucks more that NBC owns Sci-Fi now though.

[tiamatlady]

Well I don't think it sucked, but I'm not sure now I want to invest another three hours into it. I only got to half-watch thanks to the Unit having a nervous ass breakdown, and my nephew being a butthead.

I didn't know about the NBC thing. That is sure to suck in the months ahead. It's like The Christian Broadcasting network buyign Comedy Central - stupid and would cost us South Park. I SWEAR if NBC screws with SG-1 I'm going to have the world's biggest hissie.

i think the only up side is that they have the money to make BSG and Farscape

What the hell language are you speaking boy!
*looks at you funny*
You better be prepared to entertain me this weekend - my tooth is sore and I require some attention dammit!
And speak english!
And watch that special - it WAS interesting.....

I saw the Night thing yesterday. I thought it was pretty funny, actually -- I assumed it was going to be a spoof/PR stunt, and as-such, I thought it was quite well done. I'd be surprised it anyone really was taken in by it, but if they were, ha ha on them! :)

[tiamatlady]

the few commericals I saw looked pretty decent. I thought maybe they'd found out he was an addict, or a monkey wearing a mans suit or something.

I wasn't expecting to be Blair Witch'd. Or Blair Bitch'd.
I walked out of Blair Witch saying "I've been scared worse LARPing. Hell, I've SCARED people worse LARPing!" The chick in front of me didn't like that - I guess she was scared. *smirk*

It was interesting, and I liked how they did it, but it smelled fake, and I wish it hadn't smelled, like I wish the director wasn't obviously reading from a script, or the teenagers, or the freaking publicist - SHE was scary! *grins*

Rerun

[kalisti23.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I could tell immediately from the trailers that it was the same dealy they did with "The Secret of the Blair Witch". Cross promotion with a twist. Even the shaky cinematography...

Re: Rerun

[tiamatlady]

The Secret of the Blair Witch was better than the movie, IMHO. I was intersting setup and felt real-er than the movie.
I wasn't expecting this to be a freakout, I'd only seen a couple of sneaky trailers, saying they got kicked off the set and stuff. I thought maybe they were filming the movie, and discovered he was a Satanist, or a monkey in a guy suit or something.

I was disappointed when they went for the "He sees dead people" routine. I pouted. I still love the Sixth Sense. I'd like to see the Village, but I don't know if I want to blow the money on it, they're saying the "twist" ending doesn't need to happen. And I have no interest in seeing Signs, I bypassed it on the plane to London in favor of Scooby Doo for dowg's sake!
