Anya Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I never said Buffy being alone wasn't a big theme in the series, that was someone else. What I said was that giving the SITs powers was a weaksauce way to end it. And yes, a clear lack of direction is the #1 problem with season 7. The difference between 6 and 7 in that regard is staggering. And I don't argue just to argue. I argue because I feel really strongly about what I think of Buffy and I like talking about it, even with those who don't agree. What fun would it be if everyone agreed? I assumed you all liked discussing these things. I guess not. I actually haven't seen Angel season 4 yet. Meaning I haven't seen the Beast. Maybe I will hate him....... *cue dramatic music*
RavishingRickRudo Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 Well THE BEAST doesn't suck... ... so of course you'll hate him.
Guest Brian Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 We're going to map out Angel's life through the flashbacks and other stuff. Starting now.
RavishingRickRudo Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 Can we go backwards ? Like Current Day: Angel got destroyed by WR&H. ??
Guest Brian Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 We just go through the seasons. Everyone take a season. I've got three.

Oh shit, I just remembered I have to tally the votes for the tourney. Crap.
Guest Brian Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 We'd just have to take individual seasons. And someone could take Buffy and see what there was.
Guest Brian Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 1767, Marseilles, in transit to Morocco while fleeing Holtz. Traveling with James, Darla, and Elizabeth.
Guest Brian Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 1764, York, England - Holtz is already on the hunt for Angellus and Darla, where they slay his family. 1771, Rome - The monsignor assists Holtz in his capture and torture of Angellus before Darla arrives with reinforcements to bail him out. I'm pretty sure this is the last confrontation between the two.
BlackFlagg Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 And for the special features, watch disc three the Academy of Television thing. It is sooo phat, even though the host is dumb. "So Spike can't have sex like Angel?" Watching it right now, just got to that part and I think you may have heard her wrong. They started talking about how Spike was going to be getting his soul back for season 7<as this took placebefore season 7> and she asked "Is it going to be an Angel kind of thing where he can't have sex anymore?" Obviously wondering if Spike getting his soul back had similar loop-hole like Angel. But anyway, some good lines in this. "Some of my charecters don't wanna die, TUNE IN!"
dubq Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 Being compared to Marney better be a good thing. Think: annoying lesbian with an axe to grind.
Guest reekspeak Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 For example, how could you not see that the point of the series was that Buffy was always alone? They stressed that in one way or another in each season. I'll take this... Just because it's touched upon every season does not make it the main theme of the series, technically Buffy loving Angel would have been mentioned every season but no one would ever argue that their love was the point of the show. The main themes of Buffy was more about being strong or being a female than it was ever about being alone. Both of which were addressed when the Slayers in Training were "switched on".
Ripper Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 Being compared to Marney better be a good thing. Think: annoying lesbian with an axe to grind. You're Kennedy. And my thats the line comment to you earlier Anya... "What in the hellmouth...." See...thats the goddamned line. The line between people who watch the Star Wars movies and those that dress as Skywalker at their wedding. We are going to cut if off there. Thats the line....all of you. Lets not step across it anymore or Triumph will put us all down.

Ripper Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 *stops decorating apartment like Angels office to not be a Hypocrite*
Ravenbomb Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 fine, but I'm still getting the Yojimbo poster!
RavishingRickRudo Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 *looks into Rippers office just to make sure he's keeping up his end of the bargain* *is satisfied* *pauses* *walks up to his book shelf and pulls up an unmarked book* *speaks into it with a cheezy british accent* "Ripe Rumps, Issue 37" *opens* Ripper, I thought you were going to stop being such a goddamn nerd by copying Angel! For you own good, I'm taking this home *Leaves with Book*
RavishingRickRudo Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I'm sad they got rid of Dennis. ... he should get his own spin-off.
Anya Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I am NOT like Kennedy. That's horrible. I want an Andrew spin off really badly. Or just the entire trio. They could ride around in Warren's van fighting crime.
Mole Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 Yeah.... And they should have Kendra the Vampire Slayer.
Guest Brian Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 1764 - (York, England) Holtz is already on the hunt for Angellus and Darla, where they slay his family. 1767 - (Marseilles, France) In transit to Morocco while fleeing Holtz. Traveling with James, Darla, and Elizabeth. 1771 - (Rome) The monsignor assists Holtz in his capture and torture of Angellus before Darla arrives with reinforcements to bail him out. I'm pretty sure this is the last confrontation between the two. 1880 - (London) Dru turns Spike. Darla has left Angelus for the master. The three massacre a wedding. Spike finds Angel messing with Dru after telling him she was his "destiny". And the two fight, with Angel prevailing and giving the young'un a lesson. 1890 - Angellus is watching Jezel (ballet) by the Valiznikov troupe. I'm assumingthis is in St. Petersburg. 1894 - (Rome, Italy) - Being tied up with Spike so the Immortal can have a thrre-way. 1943 - (Atlantic Ocean) Angel is being used by the US government to help recover a captured sub.
Hank Kingsley Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I'm sad they got rid of Dave Nabbit, multimillion dollar business owner/fighter of all that is evil. He was awesome.
BlackFlagg Posted May 27, 2004 Report Posted May 27, 2004 It was "What television show did the 240 year old vampire Angel first appear on?" dunno if I worded it completely right but ya get the idea, it was in a vampire related category.
Guest 11and0baby Posted May 27, 2004 Report Posted May 27, 2004 Speaking of Dennis, Does he even know that Cordy died?
