It's totally do-able!! With all the new faces coming out of the woodwork, we should have plenty of new and interesting discussions! Plus, if I ever get this lj going, we'll have some big chats coming up when all of the goodies are handed out

Saying Hi to Stef, Ren and Toomi before I head through the last few pages. I also see Erin and Nat online. Are you two still around? Back in a minute.

Ren, I just watched the Pink video. Noticed that SGAVala is Michey that made the Ain't no other Man videos the Stef recommended to everyone a few weeks ago. Ain't No Other Man

Going to catch up now.

*hugs*
Hey

Okay, I was wondering if they were the same. Cool

Hey, did anybody watch SGA tonight and think:

Saw the SGA one yesterday. I have read several of the reviews here at GW and I think I like it better then most others. Love seeing the evil Sheppard and the pyscho dreams. The thing I like about SGA is that they have so many great Stand alone episodes that don't build on arks. Like Prometheus Unbound, I like rewatching these the most. As for the strange feel, did you watch the Mad World video for this episode. Now that everyone has seen the episode go watch it. Adding this episode and this video together made the whole experience better for me.

Isn't this on topic since I compared it to PU?

Sure, it's on topic

Yeah, I love stand-alones too

My favorite season 10 episodes are MM, BG, 200, and the only arc-heavy one: TQ2. Season 9 is a little different, because Crusade is probably my favorite. But one of my favorites from SGA season 3 is Irresistable

I think it's because I like a good comedic episode, and those are rarely arc-related.

The episode was definitely interesting, a good twist on a plot that could've gone straight to cliche, so in that way I liked it. A couple of the scenes were a bit wonko though

And I liked that vid, "Mad World" is such an awesome song, I think it definitely works for this episode..

**Toomi** · 19 October 2007, 10:34 PM

Now I really gotta think....

Season 9: STand alones: Ex Deus Machina (Ba'al is such a great bad guy!) and Collateral Damage ( See some of Cam's past) Arc ep: Avalon 2 and Crusade.

Season 10: Stand Alones: 200 ( and this is where it gets hard) Bounty (coz it's a Cam ep... but otherwise not much else holding it there) Family Ties ( I liked the Vala/Father interraction) MM Arc eps: Pegasus Project (Daniel in Atlantis... SGA cast working with SG-1 cast amongst many other great aspects of this ep)

SGA: Definatly the eps Home, Doppelganger, Inferno, and lately I've really gotten to like Seteda... never really used to

Ask me to pick an ep over 10 years of SG-1 and I'd be struggling... really really struggling.

Crusade, by far my favorite season nine episode. I know it is the whole genesis of the Ori Arc but for me it has the feel of a bottle episode. I love to watch it for Claudia Black.. In the commentary, they talk about watching her performance during filming. She was great. (This is in the smallest print. I also love Tomin and Vala together. Yes they are my second ship and some days my first)

...don't worry, I'm with you on the Tomin/Vala front

Oooh, let's play name your favorite arc episode and favorite stand-alone:

SG-1 S9: ARC: Crusade/TPTB--BOTTLE: TTTB/Collateral Damage
SG-1 S10: ARC: TQ2/LITS--BOTTLE: MM/200/BG

**Toomi** · 19 October 2007, 10:53 PM

I can't even pick a fave D/V ep... the ones that would definatly be up there all have different aspects which make me like them differently.

Ok, finishing an ep of BSG then off to bed. I'll see y'all tomorrow evening. Have a good one!!!

I noticed a trick that others use is to add a D/V pic.

Aww, and here I thought I was being all sly. Goes to show you can never fool your Mom

*hugs*

Some people have also fallen into using a particularly swoon-worthy quote, for example:

Daniel: If I let you go, I know you're gonna make yourself disappear. You've been running so long it's almost second nature to you. You don't remember it, but you made a decision to stop running. It's over. Now it's time to come home.

I have started to think "Will this be a great song for Stef to make a Video to" while listening to music during the day. My son has told me a few time "Mom, this song would be a good one for your internet friend to make a video with". (Forgot to tell you that Brett liked your second version of Gravity of Love the best)

Aw, I'm being mentioned in the Susan household!

Glad your son liked the second version (your husband preferred the first, right?).

And there's no rush. The goal is one I set for myself! I need to get to work on other things, so I'd like to polish these two off

OK, this is a stupid question. Wendy, what does Sparky stand for? I have really only hung out in this thread so I am confused about some nicknames.

Well, Sparky is for the Sheppard/Weir pairing (but as you can tell, it doesn't correspond to their names...so it's not stupid that you don't know that). As for the origins...there's a long explanation about it that basically boils down to a couple of people sitting around and thought it fit Shep/Weir and started using it (and it caught on). Kay is more knowledgeable in this stuff, she could probably fill you in!

Wendy,

we were going to hang out with Stef this weekend. Remember our plans. I was off all night in Knoxville and you feel bad. I will miss you tonight but hope you fell up to playing tommorow.

There you go Stef. Recruit more Vid makers. You were great with helping Ren with her first one. When are you going to schedule the lessons.. I love your planned nights at the thread. The episode month was one of the reasons the thread is so fun now. While we all told our opionions of the episodes we where also learning about the personalities of the Fruitcakes. We have such a positive group. I stay out of the other thread because of the Gripe, Gripe feel that they have some days. So, the How to Make Video Lesson will start on (Fill in Date here).

Oh, if I can, I will make EVERYONE into a vidder. I figure, everyone should make at least one attempt. It's only fair. I mean, I'm not a writer but I attempt to write. You'll never know if you can do something unless you try!

Let's see....How to Make Video Lessons will start....Sunday (10/21/07) evening. Anyone who has a question, I will be around to answer and give instructions/tutorials. How does that work?

Of course, I am always here for questions....but that will be the "official" day.

-Stef

**Odakota_Rose** · 19 October 2007, 11:27 PM

Awesome!
*prepares a long long list of questions*
MUAHAHAHA.

On that note, I'm going to bed now...
Goodnight Mom, goodnight Stef!

It Take Two

What does everyone think of this one?

I watched this the other day/yesterday and I remember liking it...but I was half asleep...so perhaps I need to refresh my memory.

**Stef** · 19 October 2007, 11:57 PM

Ha! I'm listening to my itunes and I found a horribly depressing but wonderful song someone could make into a video. More from Vala's perspective with D/V in there...
