[metaneira]

So I was thinking about how it's 2014 now and that means that'll be a friendaversary for me and my friend suzat, whom I met my freshman year of high school way back in 1994. "Ten years I've known her!" I thought. Wait. No. NO. 1994 was TWENTY FUCKING YEARS AGO I WILL NEVER GET OVER THIS I met* noirbettie back in 2001 so that means I've known her for like, three years OH WAIT NO TRY THIRTEEN HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE don't even get me started on how when I met pringlesaremydivision she was like 15 or something ridiculous and now she's a married lady and what how no what fuck time man * actually i still haven't "met" bettie but I feel being able to call someone crying in the middle of the night is as good as having had a face-to-face introduction

My Questions to You:

Do you prefer books or their movie adaptations? - It really depends. I've had a few occasions where the book wasn't as good as the movie but that's certainly in the minority. The best example for me is "The Chocolate War" by Robert Corimer. It's an amazing book, but the film is even better. My default setting is hoping that the movie is at least representational of the source material. The absolute worst movie adaptation was "The Power of One" - based on the novel by Bryce Courtenay. It's a gorgeous, powerful book and the film makers got NOTHING right. My Mom hadn't been to the movies in almost two decades but she wanted to go the theater to see it because it was our favorite book. I'd only seen my Mom cry twice before - this was the third time. It just ripped the soul out of the book. (Yeah, still very angry...)

What personality traits (if any) do you have in common with your favourite characters from any franchise? - I can't think of any. I'm drawn to brave, outspoken, not easily cowed, sarcastic, smart, adventurous characters. I'm none of those things.

Are there any fandoms that you’re a part of where you like the source material but stay away from the actual fandom? - I'm not active with Doctor Who fandom and I've been in love with the show since I was a teenager. 

What are you most scared of? - Me. I'm constantly paranoid that I've upset someone, said the wrong thing, done the wrong thing. Not worthy of being included in stuff. I'm alone a lot so I spend a lot of time trapped in my head. 

What things do you hope to have done by the time you’re 30? - I'm well past 30 and still haven't done much with my life. What I wanted to go before I turned 30 was to move to Los Angeles, which I did do for a few years before I had to come back to Northern California and take care of my Mom.

BBC Sherlock or Elementary? - Sherlock. No interest at all in Elementary.

If you could pick one person from your real life to stay with you during a zombie apocalypse, who would it be and why? - If my Mom were still alive, I'd choose her. She was practical and level-headed, she was mechanically inclined, she knew how to use power tools and she could cook. 

A talent you wish you had. - I wish I could play the guitar.

All-time favourite ice cream flavour? - I don't have an all-time favorite. I like mint chocolate chip, coffee with Heath Bar bits, Phish Food... depends on my mood. 

Rose Tyler or River Song? - Neither. I liked them both at the beginning, but by the time they left they'd worn out their welcome with me.

All-time favourite movie? - Again, I can't even pick a favorite comedy. It's not that I'm wishy-washy (except that I am), I just really love a lot of movies. Here's a tiny list: Animal Crackers (1930), Singing in the Rain (1952), The Thin Man (1934), Harold and Maude (1971), Emma (1996), The Princess Bride (1987), National Lampoon's Animal House (1978), Young Frankenstein (1974), A Hard Day's Night (1964)...

My questions for you:

What movie are you looking forward to coming out?

Who is your favorite writer?

What is your favorite snack?

What is your favorite article of clothing?

What is your favorite Whedon TV show?

If you could visit anywhere, where would you like to go?

Have any of your OTP’s been canon?

What website do you visit the most? (Besides Tumblr, of course.)

Recommend a movie that you love to me.

What’s one of your pet peeves?

Tell me about a terrible movie that you’ve seen more than once and whether or not you think I should watch it.

suzat reblogged your post: kingdomofrains: patrexes: moment of silence...

{{Therrrrre’s the hate. I’ve been waiting! NOW it’s a proper Dr Who experience! Welcome back, Eight!}}

There's a difference between hate and valid criticism.

I loved The Night Of The Doctor. It was beautiful. It mentioned my favourite companion onscreen. I adore getting more Eight. That doesn't make it above criticism. Nothing is above criticism, and you can enjoy something and still see its flaws. Particularly when those flaws are extremely common for a certain writer.
