Screencap Review

[kungfuwaynewho]

I am beginning my first-ever Babylon 5 rewatch!  I hope it will be the first of many.  I decided it might be fun to do some reviews as I go along, but I'm not very good at writing actual meta.  So I'm just going to make jokes on top of screencaps.





















And a collection of prettehs:



Part II.

The truth about comment-butting: I think it makes for better discussion when there are more than two people talking about something. So stop apologizing :P

The truth about SiL: IF I watch it, I have to watch it with the commentary, pretty much. And I STILL cry. And - yeah. Watching before bed? Advised against in ANY sense. Actually, if I'm doing a complete, for-real series re-watch, generally I start crying at the end of "Objects at Rest" when he's leaving the message for his son. And then. Yeah. I never stop, really. Also there is ample cursing at JMS. And then there is "Points of Departure" because - I just can't take it.

Alright. I'm done with apologizing! ;)

Watching before bed? Advised against in ANY sense.

I have learned my lesson. I was so sad afterwards that I could not fall asleep, so I had to go watch adorable scenes from Season 2, but even they were tainted with sadness...because only 20 years. *cries*

I must admit, I'm a little scared about what Season 4 and "Sleeping in Light" will do to my roomie's current B5 love. She hates sad things, and from the bit she watched of Season 3, she loves Marcus. So, you know, Marcus dies and "Sleeping in Light" is the saddest thing ever. I warned her the other day that things were going to happen that she wouldn't like and that are sad, but I'm still afraid she's going to end up hating the show and hating me. I just hope she'll love the rest of the story enough to be okay with it.

Or as okay with it as one can be. Man, SiL is still killing me today. I just...I don't think I could do it if I were Delenn. I just don't.

Go find some happy! You are making me sad at work.

Pillow hugging scene... *cries*

*Pictures Sheridan's face in the Council Chambers when he sees Delenn for the first time*

*HAPPY FACE!* K. Better now.

That's what kills me. KILLS ME. I mean, I am sad that he dies, don't get me wrong, but it's thinking about Delenn alone for the NEXT EIGHTY YEARS that I just can't deal with. That shot of her in the bed rolling over and hugging her pillow? Is when I went from crying to sobbing the first time I watched SiL.

This is why I sometimes have a hard time reading fanfic with Anna Sheridan, even though I know it's not really her in "Z'ha'dum" and whatever blah blah - I just want to punch her in the face.
