Welcome to Twenty Eleven

oh_whimsical? I GOT YOUR CHRISTMAS CARD, YOU ARE SUCH A DARLING AND SO SWEET. NOT GONNA LIE I GRINNED LIKE A LOON READING IT. ILU TOO, BB. ♥ ♥ ♥

By the way, does anyone know what happened to downfall35?

After finishing (sadly) Caprica via the DVD set, and being further impressed more and more by the finale as I rewatch it because damn it is good, and moving onto not only listening to the commentary but doing the same with the Dollhouse DVDs, I had forgotten that some of my shows were returning this week! Pretty Little Liars resumes on Monday and V returns on Tuesday! \O/ I know some others are returning too, I'll have to look at a schedule. I can't wait for The Cape's mid-season premiere, yay Summer Glau!

It feels odd, doesn't it? It feels like 2010 had just arrived and suddenly it's 2011. I don't know whether I should be concerned about time going by quickly.....

Also, I don't normally do resolutions for the new year, mostly because I rarely if ever keep them. However I do plan on making some adjustments regarding this journal. Nothing serious so don't worry! It's just my way of arranging things such as topic for discussion, adding more variety into the mix since I know most of what I talk about some people on my flist aren't even a participant on and somehow I feel like I'm being dismissive of them. I would like to also reconnect with many people on my friendslist who I haven't chatted with in a while, either by drifting apart fandom-wise or whatever. I don't want to exclude anyone, and if you've felt that way I feel kind of bad about that. So if we haven't chatted in a while please, feel free to drop by and say hey or something of the like.

They're worth it, trust me. It's just sad knowing that there won't be any more after you watch it all, though. One of the heartbreaks of getting into already canceled shows that you begin to love. :(

I was like that with Firefly :(

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

Oh, Firefly. My precious Firefly. ;___; I'm still pissed at FOX.

[love-jackianto.livejournal.com]

Oh firefly. At least we got a movie.

[rogueslayer452.livejournal.com]

It was like some miracle, and I'm happy that we did get a movie because it was pretty damn epic. :D

[love-jackianto.livejournal.com]

It was. It's a shame that so few people saw it and we'll probably never get a sequel.

I find that interesting considering all the pre-screenings beforehand were all sold out, and basically all Firefly fans went to see the movie multiple times. But I'm supposing that movie numbers are quite different when determining another movie in a franchise.

I would love there to be a Big Damn Sequel, sometime in the future. But as I said it was a miracle that the movie was ever even considered at all, so we should be happy that there was at least some kind of continuation to tell the story. :)

'But I'm supposing that movie numbers are quite different when determining another movie in a franchise.'
I think so. I've heard that a movie has to make at least twice it's initial budget (to cover filming and marketing) to be considered successful and Serenity only made $38.8 million worldwide with a budget on 39 million. I'm sure it's higher with DVD sale, but probably not high enough.

Agreed on all points.
