Procrastinating on marketing plan thing, partly b/c I'm freezing - heat hasn't come on for some reason.
And edgy.

Did rent: The Fisher King and Two Towers, along with two fluff movies that I will keep to myself.

Not enjoying the voy boards much these days. The Spike bashing seems to be endless, actually I don't mind that so much as the smugness and self-righteous/morally superior attitude of the people writing the posts. Has anyone ever read a noir novel? Or experienced a complex, morally ambiguous character? Do you understand what an anti-hero is? (Angel's one by the way and is probably the darkest character to grace a tv set. Yet people don't seem to see it.) Instead of reducing an analysis of a character to smug shorthand, can't anyone explore the hidden depths? See the duality? Do people remember how? There wasn't a bad discussion on Spike a few months ago, haven't seen many recently though, just two-dimensional posts that lack any real insight. See no point in responding to them. I think I'll just avoid the boards for a while until the new episodes air in January.

Ugh...cold, frustrated and annoyed. Even Lobi Traore hasn't helped. Uggy day. Must work! Then as a reward, I'll watch a fluff movie.

Plenty of sense

In fact, I've repeated some of this in response to your last post on the board, unwittingly before reading this.

I think 'Destiny' may give me some more impetus to write about Spike. For whatever reason, the Odyssey thread got busy as soon as we moved away from Wesley and on to Spike and Angel, which I suppose is boringly predictable. I was just trying to stimulate some Wesley debate from a Wesley episode, since Angel and Spike get untold amount of board time already, and this was the first episode in which neither one of them was the foreground character, (not the main character, the main character is always Angel), except the IMO dreadful 'Life of the Party'. But I don't mind Spiek and Angel discussion as long as it's intelligent, and with you, valheru and ponygirl around, that's a given.
