You know how you don't have time to read, and you see a really intriguing fic and you'll just have a tiny peek and before you know it you're completely enthralled and you need more!!!? Well that just happened...

The fic in question being shapinglight's Family Reunion, which has one of the most fascinating AU premises I've ever come across: What if Darla hadn't died 'giving birth' to Connor? What if she loved him and what sort of mother would she be? Oh and Spike never returned to Sunnydale after 'Lovers Walk', which means lots of lovely Spike/Darla! Go, read and get sucked in!

And best of all - it's all finished and we just have to sit back and wait for her to post. So those of you who usually avoid WIPs can safely indulge. :)

And in completely unrelated news, SFX have a poll trying to find out which SF movie is the greatest. They narrowed the selection down to 10 and Serenity is in there! *is very pleased* And it is currently ahead of the rest! :)

I always get a kick out of the devotion fandom has for Joss when polls like this are going on. But you know, Serenity will never EVER be a better movie than 2001, or Blade Runner, or even The Matrix. Heh.

Me too! :)

I'm with you on Blade Runner, but The Matrix never did much for me (and I've not seen 2001) *hides*.

Well, my point is that even if you don't like them, there's no secret the 3 movies I mentioned are great in the way that they are the basis for how sci-fi is made today [hell, The Matrix changed the way MOVIES were made]. The impact they had was stupendous. Meanwhile, Serenity didn't even have an international release. See what I mean?

[elisi]

Oh yes. But it yet again leaves Star Wars as the clear winner...

Ditto - well except for the Matrix (meh!) But Blade Runner - sublime.

[elisi]

Yeah, I'd put Blade Runner at top too! :)

Oh man! I wish lillianmorgan was around, she'd love that. :(

[elisi]

My thoughts too! I'll try to e-mail her...

[kittyzams.livejournal.com]

Have you heard from her at all lately? She sent me a birthday gift back in Jan. and I never got a response back when I emailed a thank you. I think she done run off again!

[elisi]

Have you heard from her at all lately?
Nope. She sent me a birthday/Christmas present, and we exchanged a few e-mails, but then she went *puff* again. But apparently she was OK, just extremely busy. We can cross our fingers...

Thanks for the pimp. I really appreciate it.

Will be posting part 2 tomorrow.

My pleasure - since I can't actually *force* people to read it, pimping is the next best thing... ;)

And now I can't wait until tomorrow! *is impatient*
