Elizabeth Weir/John Sheppard Appreciation/Ship/Discussion Thread

Oh dear God, now I'm Belle. Don't these people have anything else to do?

It's just for the weekend and it's kinda fun to change things up a bit. I had to laugh that I had prepared a three little pigs sig banner and then wound up with the Big Bad Wolf.

I am Belle as well. Can't I be Big Bad Wolf or something equally cool? Uhhhh.

I wound up as the Beast. I like the Beast and all, but I think I'd rather be Belle.

Haha, well I’m The Huntsman which isn’t all bad, at least he is on the good side, besides if it means that I get to run through the woods with Chris Hemsworth and Jamie Dornan I’m all for it.

They’ve started showing SGA from the beginning again and today they were showing ‘The Siege pt 2’ and of course I got stuck watching it again but anyway, I just loved this part and this line, it was just one of the many times that John and Elizabeth stood up for one another.

I remembered to bring my DVD so I can possibly make the thon on Sunday.

So, Disney weekend... and here I thought I'd be Disney-free until I monday at work. Not! note: my company has a license to design Disney cross-stitch patterns

Cooking is always a great skill to have.


Ack!

I am getting much better on both those counts.

Thanks, Drew!!! I can use all the good luck I can get. Stressful is a galactic understatement.

JM has this to say about Before I Sleep:

In the opening scene, Sheppard’s birthday gift to Weir goes a long way toward strengthening the (recently frayed) bond between the two while simultaneously endearing John to the audience. Yes, he’s a guy who killed some 60 enemy combatants, challenged Elizabeth’s authority, and showed suspect judgment in his romantic pursuit of an outsider but, on the flip side, he’s someone who thinks enough of his friends to: a) take the time to find out their birth day and b) go through the trouble of getting them a present. It’s a small gesture but an incredibly meaningful one.

He goes on to talk about how Rodney is a hero in this episode. No mention of Elizabeth's sacrifice.

And we get this tidbit on The Brotherhood:


This episode also marks the first mention of Sheppard’s mensa test. We learn he passed but never joined, shocking McKay by suggesting that there’s more to this low-key rebel than meets the eye. But was he on the level? Years later, in the fifth season mid-season two-parter, Rodney isn’t so sure…

So far, it is just as I predicted. He's being a bit careful to talk about just the characters, not the actors. So I guess I can't accuse him of ignoring JF, but he talks a lot about Rodney in every episode. For example, in The Defiant One, he's all about how Rodney was a hero. Again. Unbelievable. It's like he's not reading his own scripts.

So I ask the question, what's real, perception or the intent of the writer? There's a good argument for both.

Could you explain the difference maybe...

Madness I know your health problems will get better, hang in there. Nolamom cool smiles. I always wondered how folks make those. Mandogator I feel the job hunt pain. I kind of bounced around until I found a place I liked.

And what's with all the Disney stuff? I can still remember my dad me being forced to play tea party and watch Little Mermaid with my sister just so we could watch the game later. Even the dogs were forced to play somehow. My favorite Disney movie is Beauty and the Beast. Angry mobs, castle siege, and dancing beer steins... what's not to like!

Yay, post-a-thon!

Must find a crown for the Lemming. No Evil Queen is complete without a crown.

Eeeeeee! The Cuteness! Awesome!

To quote a certain Vulcan, "Fascinating."

Sounds like Mallozzi's still got his Rodney-love rose-colored glasses on. Not terribly surprised there.

Have you ever seen Atlantis: The Lost Empire? No songs (until the end credits) and lots of explosions. Certainly not your average Disney movie.

Of course, there's always Disney-Pixar's latest offering, Brave:
