See, I love "The Matrix." That trilogy always makes me happy.

But, yeah, I was surprised "Stargate" didn't make it.

That was an awesome show.

I was looking for that one, too.

I was all set to start complaining that The Matrix isn't a TV show and shouldn't be on the list, before I noticed it was Movies and TV shows.

This is why I should not be on Lj in the mornings!

Lol, yep, a combination of both.

It's not so bad to be on LJ in the mornings.

Thought I'd pick your brain a bit. I watched a couple random epiodes of 'Lost', and though I enjoyed them, I didn't fully understand the concept of the show. I know I could look up its premise on imdb or some such, but I think I'd rather hear it from you. How would you describe the show to a newcomer like me?

And yay for 'Heroes' making the list!

I don't know. I've lost a lot of interest in that show, because it seems like JJ Abrams is unable to complete a story. It started out that it was survivors of a plane crash stuck on a deserted island, but this last season, it's gotten crazy.

I know! Heroes so deserved it.

I want to lick your journal header... Is that weird? :P

I've lost a lot of interest in that show, because it seems like JJ Abrams is unable to complete a story.

*sigh* I hate it when shows plateau that way. It's such a shame. But what's with all of the flashes to different lives lived off of the island? Are those from the past or are they only in deranged minds?

I know! Heroes so deserved it.

*waves There Go My Heroes flag*

Not really. I kind of want to lick it a little, too.

They're from the past, and they're supposed to answer some questions, but it's very rarely the ones you wanted to know. It's not that it plateaud, so much as JJ Abrams introduces questions and then never answers them; just keeep bringing more in. With any good story, they deal with what they have and move it along with that and then once those problems have been solved, they bring in new ones.

Heroes deserves everything.

...wow...


I mean a lot of them I can really agree with, but I really can't see how Futurama could beat 'Doctor Who'. And I was sure Heroes would be higher as well as Back to the future.

Try...harder. Lol.

I agree that some of them should be higher, but I think that Futurama is more of an American pop culture thing than Doctor Who is. Doctor Who is mostly a BBC thing, and this is for an American magazine. I can see the point there.

Yeah, you gotta keep in mind that this is one of those pop culture magazines. I was surprised that some of the ones that did get in got in, you know.

Huh? Sorry, I have very limited knowledge of the chatroom stuff, and that went out of it. I could try to just say "*nod*" or something, but that wouldn't be fair. What does "nya" mean?

LOL.
Sorry, right when I submitted that I was like 'crap'.

'Nya' is something I actually say out loud that can basically mean anything depending on the tone I use with it but I meant:
"I know what you mean"

Nya= gotcha (usually)

Okay, gotcha. Thanks for explaining it.

Thank you! It's really interesting :)

Yeah, I liked a lot of the ones they chose.

I like (and agree with) a lot of it. But they missed Stargate, Farscape and ODYSSEY 5. (Though I knew they would, they bitch like mad about it.)

Galaxy Quest though...must go find my DVDs.

Date: 2008-01-07 11:18 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lostandalone22.livejournal.com
I don't watch the other two, but I was wondering about Stargate. That one you'd think would make it.

*shivers* There's some movies that are good Tim Allen, and then there's some that need to disappear a little. That one falls under that category.

Odyssey5 was cancelled way back when but is by far my favourite sci-fi series ever. (It's set in Houston, and when the DVDs came out last year, the producer said their second choice for Neil - see icon, was Jensen Ackles.)

I suppose SG has always made it.

Aww...I love Galaxy Quest. Right down to every single geeky Star Trek reference. *is not geeky enough to have got most of them* *honest*

From: [identity profile] lostandalone22.livejournal.com
That's kind of cool.

I don't know. It didn't seem so much sci-fi to me as 'typical Tim Allen.'

Date: 2008-01-08 07:59 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] loki-dip.livejournal.com
I thought so. I want to see what Jensen would have done with the role. However, growing up, Neil Taggart was my ONLY guy crush, and it might not have been with a different actor.

Although...Jensen in the wig. *beams* That would have been funny.

Tim Allen was the weakest part of the film, because that's what he always plays, but I thought the rest was fantastic meself. Ah well, life would suck if we all liked the same things, yes?

Date: 2008-01-08 08:02 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lostandalone22.livejournal.com
That would have been cool if Jensen was that guy, so he'd be your teen crush.

I have a hard time moving past him, though. There has to be someone I really love to tolerate him.

This is true.

Date: 2008-01-08 08:07 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] loki-dip.livejournal.com
But would he have been if someone else had played it? (Might be useful to point out here, that I am very very gay. As in no guys.)

Aww...that's a shame. But I know the feeling. For me that's Nicholas Cage, Clive Owen and David Caruso.

Date: 2008-01-08 08:09 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lostandalone22.livejournal.com
Yeah, good point.

I like Nicholas Cage, but don't even really know the other two.

From: [identity profile] loki-dip.livejournal.com
Clive Owen was Arthur, and in Children of Men (though apparently where I'm sitting right now was mentioned in that film). (Just NO!). David Caruso is in CSI:Miami and is painful to watch.

(You up nice and late here?)

Date: 2008-01-08 08:13 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] lostandalone22.livejournal.com
Okay, I know who they are now.

Date: 2008-01-08 08:14 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] loki-dip.livejournal.com
Cool...anywho, better run. Don't want to be late for work!

Have a good night/day.
