Just taking a moment to post my results to one of those quick little online personality tests a friend sent me. (Hey, at least I'm posting something! (Poor neglected LJ.)
And, yeah. Good or bad, this pretty much describes me. :)

A new promo for the next new Veronica Mars aired tonight during the show that shall not be named. The show I recorded only for the purpose of catching this promo. How silly is that? :) (I have to say this is the one time I'm grateful to not be a Nielsen viewer.)
Anyway, vid behind the link.

Not the best promo they've done, but at least they're promoting the mystery of the week rather than making it look like a really lame teen soap opera. Points for that, promo monkey people!

First, a quick word and request about Veronica Mars: For the few on my flist who don't already know this, I'm enjoying the show as much now as I did in the first season and I still respect the efforts of the people making the show. (I wish I could say the same about all of fandom, which I've pretty much commented all I'm gonna comment on at this point.)
I know spoilers are out for the last five episodes. I do NOT want to know them. I don't care if people think they're the worst/best thing that's ever happened in the history of civilization. I don't want to hear it. I can judge that for myself when the episodes air, thank you very much. By the way, this is not directed at any person or incident. I just wanted to go on record with my new anti-spoiler policy. If this is indeed the final season, then I would like to experience it without any more unnecessary hysteria than is already out there right now. Mmm'kay? Thanks! :)
Also, for those who still like the show - and who haven't already seen it -
spectralbovine has started a nice thread for expressing your reasons for feeling this way.
Now that that's out of the way, a few non-VM questions ...

That is all! New Supernatural tonight, yay! I may even watch it before the weekend. :)

According to posters at TWoP, the promo for the return of Veronica Mars didn't air in all areas, so for those who might have missed it, look beyond the cut.
( 3x16 Veronica Mars promo )
Seriously, I don't get the promo monkeys. May 1st? Ok, the 4/24 date was only "projected." But "6 new episodes?" Since when? Since never, promo monkeys. Go back to your cage!

Ok, so I'm sitting here waiting impatiently for tonight's episode of Veronica Mars to air on the West Coast, while trying to avoid looking at any comments from those who have already seen it. So, I decided to write up/cobble together a few not-very-deep comments I've been tossing around about last week's episode, Mars, Bars.
Overall, I have to say this was one of my favorite episodes of the season. Take out the one plot I didn't like (see below) and it might have been a top ten (or at least 15!) of the series for me. I can't wait for tonight's episode, but much sadness that we're on hiatus after that. :(
Like I said, I loved the episode. I wish there weren't a few scenes I know I'll feel compelled to skip upon rewatch, but what's left was a really damn good episode.

I keep seeing those "100 Movies in 2007" lists going around, so since I love making lists and watch a lot of movies, I figured I'd start up my own personal 2007 list and see if I can make it to 100. And while I was at it, I put together a list of what I watched last year because I was curious (and ok, I was bored the other day, too). Fortunately, I already had this information elsewhere because relying on my memory would have been near impossible. So, entirely for my own amusement ...
( New Movies Watched in 2006 )
Well, not quite 100 movies in 2006, but pretty darn close.
