Battlestar Galactica Season 1 picspam (part 5)

Episode 1.08

This is one of my favorite episodes containing some fabulous and awful moments between Leoben and Starbuck. Leoben is such an awesome character and that electric chemistry he and Starbuck have is ridiculous. I might very well be the only shipper of these two, but I can’t help it. I’m all for actors having chemistry with one another and these two get me every time even though it’s not a lovey dovey kind of pairing.

“It’s a very clever machine. Manipulative, cunning. The o­nly problem with Leoben isn’t that he lies, that’d be too easy. It’s that he mixes lies with truth. Just remember, he’s gonna try to get into your head. “

This is the beginning of a shiny and very lengthy set of BSG S1 picspams. I know only a couple of you watch the show, so this is really kind of for those of you who don’t watch it. I’ve tried to avoid super majory spoilers, but there are some because some of my favorite characters are part of certain storylines and I wanted to include them because I love them so.

These are going to be episode by episode and then paired down by character and/or ‘ship, so they won’t all be 100% in order, but you’ll still be able to follow along.

This post only contains images from the miniseries. Additional episodes to follow. Enjoy!

Whoo hoo! Chuck in 3D in 5 minutes. Can’t wait!

I went to see My Bloody Valentine 3D two more times this past weekend. That makes 4 viewings and it just gets better each time. Aidan was super happy to finally see it in 3D, though a few of the scenes freaked him out a little because of the things that come hurtling towards the screen.

They showed the trailer for The Last House on the Left before MBV and it looks really, really good. Even though the cast is fantastic, I’ve ready some good reviews and this one is apparently very restrained when compared to its original counterpart, I’m pretty certain that I won’t be able to watch it in theaters or on DVD. Well, maybe on DVD if I turn the sound off and fast forward through the rape with my eyes closed, but otherwise I won’t be able to handle it. I just don’t handle rape scenes well at all and seeing Garret Dillahunt attack poor little Sara Paxton will probably scar me for life. I love him as Cromartie and have enjoyed the few other things I’ve seen him in, but I’m pretty certain that I wouldn’t be able to look at him the same after seeing him in such a role. *shudders* I’ve never been able to see the original because of all the things I’ve read about it. It sounds like one of the most sadistic films ever and that it is simply sadistic for the sake of being sadistic and that isn’t my cup of tea.

On a lighter note, I’m still thoroughly enjoying S2 of Mad Men. Someone needs to get on the ball and make shiny and frequently updated Christina Hendricks and Jon Hamm fansites for me to visit because I need to ogle the pretty. I would do it myself, but I have no time and no desire to start any new sites.

I’m finally all caught up on BSG and it’s still one of the bestest shows ever. Leoben and Starbuck should have a scene in every episode and they should also have lots of hot Cylon sex and make babies. I know most people are Lee/Kara shippers, but no one has more chemistry with her than Leoben does. Not even Sam and we all know how crazy hot Michael Trucco is, right? Callum and Katee just have that thing that pops off the screen and I was immediately on board for what would never be from the the very first scene they shared together. Good stuff, people! You should totally watch even if you don’t think you’ll be into it because it’s Sci Fi because it’s a really fantabulous show with an even more fantabulous cast.

I polished off OTH S3 a few days ago and really, really need S4 to arrive in my mailbox soon.

I finally watched The Sarah Connor Chronicles S1 recently and it was really good. Lena Headey bores me greatly, but I will continue to give her a chance. Other actors have grown on me over time, so she might grow on me too.

Butch Walker has a new CD out. Check out some samples here and then go forth and purchase it.

Aidan and I went to see Changeling last weekend. It was his idea that we go see it, which surprised me because he’s usually more of a cheesy horror movie nut. We both thought it was a really well made and well acted on all parts, especially by Angie and Jason Butler Harner who played Gordon Northcott. I hadn’t realized how skinny Angie was during that time, but she was just skin and bones. It worked in her favor though because it added an extra layer of fragility to her character and all that she went through. Jason was just too creepy for words. (WARNING: The rest of this entry contains some slight spoilers regarding Jason’s character and how some of the scenes were filmed.) Continue reading →

Well, for now anyway. I haven’t felt like blogging in ages.

Things are good. Been working on house stuff in my downtime. Still so much to do though.

We went to see Saw V a couple of weeks ago. It was pretty good (the part that revolved around Scott Patterson anyway), but part IV is still the best.

Wait for The Hauting of Molly Hartley to come out on DVD if you really want to see it. It’ll be cheaper for you and you won’t feel that you’ve just thrown money away for nothing. It’s not the worst film I’ve ever seen,but it’s certainly not good either. The actors weren’t very good and it’s not even scary. The nicest thing that I can say about it is that Chace Crawford was super cute in it.

Yeah, that’s about all I have for now. I will now leave you with a shiny Ed Westwick picspam since I haven’t done one in ages….
