Dollhouse
Posted by Elwood P Dowd on 6/27/11 at 10:54 am
Watching Dollhouse for the first time on Netflix. I [i]really[/i] like the concept. It definitely has its bad episodes, but for the most part it's pretty good. That being said, it would have been SO much better if Echo was played by Amy Acker instead of Eliza Dushku. Dushku just can't pull off t...

She looks good! However, EW definitely photoshopped the hell outta that photo. Jennifer Lawrence definitely has the acting chops, but she's going to have to lose some serious weight to pull it off. She super voluptuous normally, which is awesome...but she is supposed to be a starving child...who ...

[quote]I think I read somewhere that the licensing for Daleks ran out last season so maybe they won't renew it. The BBC doesn't actually own the rights to certain aliens in the Whoverse which is odd.[/quote]
True. They did say no Daleks this season. Praise Gallifrey. ...

In terms of formatting (if that is what appealed to you in HoL) I'd read [u]Pale Fire[/u] by Vladimir Nabokov. It's a novel of a poem called "Pale Fire" and commentary from a friend of the poet. Lots of jumping back and forth, footnotes, etc. Plus, it's Nabokov. Can't really go wrong....

[quote]That FB post isn't quite accurate.
Dumbledore doesn't need a wand to do all magic, neither do many wizards.
The best wizard warriors are the ones that can think on their feet and use their enemies' strength against them.

1. Dumbledore

[quote]That is interesting. It'd mean River kills the Doctor though, right?

possibly...if they don't end up preventing it. it would explain why river is in prison. at one point last season didn't she say she killed someone very important? or did i dream that?...
