It took me about halfway through the episode to realize that it was letterboxed. I wonder if it's going to be this way for the entire season. I also wonder how much of a ratings boost the _Lord Of The Rings_ trailer gave the show? (Heckuva trailer, too. Is it December yet?) All in all, a very solid beginning to the season, with a complete humdinger of a final shot. Just *what*, I wonder, is that going to mean?! ======================================= Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth "an eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind" -- mahatma gandhi ======================================= Live At The House O'Muzak House Concert Series http://www.smoe.org/meth/muzak.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2001 22:05:39 -0500 (CDT) From: allenw Subject: Re: Grumble grumble vcr grumble grumble On Mon, 24 Sep 2001, Hilary Hertzoff wrote: > I just got home to discover that I screwed up the settings on my vcr and was > not taping Angel as I had believed.

Well, Darla was human at the time that she and Angel, erm, got together last season. I would assume that a vampire would fire blanks, but who knows? This is, of course, assuming that Angel is the daddy. It could also be Lindsey. ======================================= Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth "an eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind" -- mahatma gandhi ======================================= Live At The House O'Muzak House Concert Series http://www.smoe.org/meth/muzak.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2001 23:34:36 -0700 From: "David S. Bratman" Subject: Re: a/heartthrob Just another good Angel episode, as far as I'm concerned; Angel's reaction to James's accusation that he's incapable of love was the most intriguing part. (Angel would be foolish, but understandably so, to let these accusations get to him. A friend of mine once wrote a song called "If you can't live without me, then why aren't you dead?") What most caught my attention was the new LOTR trailer, which I was not expecting. I've been reading the tea leaves a long time, and am in the decided minority of Tolkien fans whose attitude to the film is "Peter Jackson: Threat or Menace?" (A minority which includes almost all the Tolkien _scholars_ I know, however.) I've written my comments for the Mythopoeic Society list. Can re-post here if anyone's interested. So the rumors are true: we really will be getting Arwen, Warrior Princess ... ------------------------------ End of stillpt-digest V3 #142 *****************************
