dangermousieNo doubt, because of the traumatic news of BSG Season 3 being moved to October, I had a dream that I was watching Season Finale tonight. In RL, I put the breaks on my K/L tendencies because of self-preservation. I have no intention of being dragged too deeply into a ship which might never have anything. But clearly, my subconscious is a bigger K/L shipper than my awake self, because the whole dream revolved around Kara telling Lee that she knew he loved her and she loved him but there was no way she was going to get involved with him and get him hurt like she's done with everyone else. And then she flew off to meet Anders. Yeah, my subconscious is also clearly a bad fanfic writer.
In any event, in my dream, I was watching this on Saturday morning, for some reason, and was so excited I was running around the room and being impatient to wake up my sleeping husband (though being a considerate girl even in dreams, I didn't).
Oh, and I also had a Smallville dream (and I haven't even seen any eps since my slashy binge a few months back), where Lex and Clark were patrolling in the farm fields (why? who knows?) and Clark got annoyed with Lex suspecting him of Supermannishness and electrocuted him. As in "RIP Lex." And then caused a fake fire and a whole big set-up so no one would suspect him. It seems, in addition to being a rabit K/Ler, my subconscious doesn't like Clark. Well, on that point, the rest of me is in total agreement.
I have also realized that I haven't seen a Bollywood movie since Rang De Basanti (which was amazing, but was also a month or so back). Ahhh, RDB. Aamir is my least favorite of the "Three Khans" (I will watch anything with Sharukh like the pathetic fangirl that I am. Yes, I say that even after Anjaam. And I'll watch most anything with Salman as long as it's not slapstick.) Aamir? I can take or leave. He won't save a bad movie for me. But when he is in a good movie? Not much can beat it. RDB is added to Dil Chahta Hai, Rangeela and Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak as an Aamir movie I adore. But re: no Bollywood flicks. Nothing exciting is coming out though, and I've caught up on my backlog. I tried to get in to see a special showing of Deepa Mehta's Water on Saturday, but when I showed up 40 minutes early, the line was snaking for a mile or so, and they told me I had no chance of getting in. I guess I'll have to wait until it opens wide in April. Because come on? Social issues, women's rights AND a tragic love story? Plus John Abraham? That's a movie designed expressly for me. If you want to read an article/review of Water, go here and here.
Also, I've been slowly working through Rurouni Kenshin, and it's definitely LOVE. It's a steady fun kind of love, as I can't see myself marathonning the whole thing (for one thing, it's over 90 eps long!) but I have so much fun with each episodes. Highlights of recent viewing include Yahiko just hugging Kenshin and sobbing into him (because he was afraid Kenshin was going to be killed and it was his fault) and Kenshin not being mad but just gentle and holding the kid and I realize that Yahiko has found a father figure. Oh, and the bit where everyone was at the hot springs, and Kenshin was absent-mindedly thinking of potential opponent and so he got up and walked over to talk to the girls' side, not realizing that he was giving them more of the view than they wanted (well, except for Kaoru probably :P). And then he realized it...Heeeee. Oh, and everyone ganging up on the bratty kid who wanted Kenshin for an instructor (especially Yahiko, but Sano and Kaoru as well). Yesssss. I also get the vibe that Megumi is being sticky-sweet to Kenshin because she loves annoying Kaoru. So much love.

Date: 2006-03-09 06:29 pm (UTC)I have had a similar dream before. Not BSG related (at least not that I remember right now) but comic related. Last year there were a couple of big storylines teased in my favorite comic, and I had a few dreams before it happened of reading the comic. That's it, just reading a comic. I think I came up with a cooler storyline than what actually played out, but I'm still a little weirded out that I dreamt about reading a comic book.

Date: 2006-03-09 07:12 pm (UTC)And Kaoru is so easy to set off, the temptation must be irresistable :)
I love Kaoru. Except for Meryl from Trigun, she is probably my fave anime heroine so far, and never more so than when she gets all excitably pissed-off, like a kid. Makes me want to hug her (but only once she calms down. I have a great care for keeping all my limbs intact).

Shouldn't you be on a plane, missy?

Date: 2006-03-10 07:58 am (UTC)Also, re: Smallville, can Lex kill Clark instead? Seriously. I am the biggest Lex Luthor fangirl... I think I have a thing for morally ambiguous anti-heros or something. Hahaha.
Oh, and speaking of BSG and K/L, I think my biggest K/L shipping moment is a tie between in the miniseries, when she's happy that he's alive, and Home, part 1, when Lee kisses her unexpectedly. Other than that the ship has been rather mellow for me, because of the unsustainability factor.

Date: 2006-03-10 04:03 pm (UTC)Nope, not Indian. The only Hindi I know is what I picked from the movies (I can understand a bit when I listen, and I can also express my love 7 different ways). Subtitles are a blessing.
can Lex kill Clark instead
I have no idea what my subconscious' take on this is, but my awake self totally agrees.

Oddly enough, my biggest shipping moments are when they almost have sex (when she is thinking of Anders) and when he says good-bye before being transferred to Pegasus and they shae hands but just don't let go through the entire conversation...
