Chit-Chat: EVAN PETERS HAVE MY BABIES

[digi-kun]

The timing on this week's fate/zero....

Spoiler:

That's not fair! Finally a show about witches come on air and once the first season is over its cancelled?!

Clearly, Mr Cater was in a coma from 1998 to 2006, the poor man. He's never heard of Charmed!

 

[Esper]

Wow, that show lasted a long time. I didn't think people actually watch Charmed. I caught like ten minutes of one episode and it seemed really dull. Always assumed it was one of those shows that just played its single season on a rerun loop.

I never knew this was a thing until I went to Japan and I was shown a screen and told to touch where I wanted to sit. I went all like this:

At least in my memory I did. I feel so, so, so 20th century going to a theatre and not being able to pick a seat and have it reserved for me now.

I thought that was a standard thing of being able to choose where you sat?​

YOU OFFEND ME MADAM.

Charmed was my life for such a long time. I signed 15,000 online petitions to get it a Season 9, and I had an undying obsession with the show that lasted pretty much until I discovered Buffy in late 2007. So it ate a good portion of my life!

It was such an awesome show though... and it was the reason for my first ever foruming experience. It has shaped me into the lovely vision you see before you today!

Not where I live or anywhere I've been to the movies in the states. And I'm from California! Hollywood is sort of in my backyard.

YOU OFFEND ME MADAM.

I'M GOOD AT THAT. But the show did play on a channel that always played reruns of old shows and all the friends I had liked Buffy and didn't care for Charmed so I also assumed it was just Buffy-lite.

Signing petitions to save shows is a thing for you, isn't it?

 

[Shining Raichu]

I wouldn't call it Buffy-lite, but once you get your hands on a Joss Whedon show, nothing else is ever as good ever again :(

lmao yeah - at least it was, back when I was young and naive enough to believe that actually made a difference :(

 

[TRIFORCE89]

Hahahahaha

(sorry)

Anyway, for opening weekends of big ticket movies I've arrived an hour early sometimes.

PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFAHAHHAHAHA!

Anyway. I haven't been a cinema in a while, I really need to go and watch the Avengers, but I just don't have much time outside of work.​

The only time i needed to wait for long was for Harry Potter 5 since people wanted to see that or another movie that came out around that time

I never watched it either, Alyssa Milano = no. My favorite witch-related show was always Sabrina the Teenage Witch, although little ol' Sabrina was in a whole different category than the dirty and tainted Alyssa Milano.

I'm very interested in series' such as Game of Thrones and on the occasion, Spartacus. But I'm far more interested in epic fantasy set in this sort of time. In addition I'm fond of movies like Lord of the Rings, and I'nm struggling to find things done like these are. So if anyone has any series' or movies like Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones I'd love to hear.

 

[Esper]

Lessee... big epic fantasy movies?

If you want something 80s-tastic (with the limited scale of epic-ness you get with that decade) you have Willow (which is more adventure-y, less epic), Labyrinth (more magical, not much action or epic stuff), The Dark Crystal (a certain level of epic scale, done all with puppets), Highlander (can't really remember how this one goes but I'm pretty sure it's got sword fighting). Somehow, I get the vibe these aren't quite what you're looking for though.

What else? There's a 2000s movie called Reign of Fire in which dragons have taken over the world, or something. I heard it wasn't that good and I haven't seen it. For other movies in that kind of action/adventure area there's Beowulf, Prince of Persia, and 300, (all of which I haven't seen, can't personally recommend). There's also Gladiator and Troy for recent-ish swords-and-sandals type movies about high adventure in Greco-Roman times. (I can't speak to these personally either.)

If you don't mind stretching out into foreign films you'll probably find some good martial arts movies like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon or Hero.

TIME FOR A TITLE CHANGE!

And yeah, Sabrina >>> all other witchy shows. Apart from the animated Sabrina which was just all kinds of crap.

 

[Shining Raichu]

I never watched it either, Alyssa Milano = no. My favorite witch-related show was always Sabrina the Teenage Witch, although little ol' Sabrina was in a whole different category than the dirty and tainted Alyssa Milano.

lmao what is wrong with Alyssa Milano? What did she do to you?

Also I agree with this name change. Sabrina was epic. Except for Season 7 without Hilda and Zelda. That was more crap than the animated series could have ever hoped to be.

 

[Nick]

The animated series was legendary. How dare you suggest it was anything less?!

 

[cacturne4512]

The animated series was what got me into the original Sabrina series. It was not crap, and should not be treated as such.

 

[Her]

She's almost as bad as Winona Ryder. Almost.

As for the animated series, it's cute that you can be so completely wrong, Andy. The animated series was utterly perfect in every way!

 

[Weeaboo Name]

GE999 is pretty awesome for something so episodic.

And as I continued my praise only grew. Man that ending was better than Utena, Monster and the Ideon. Probably Tied with LotGH as my favourite ending ever.
