I've been very naughty! -- Greenstone, 17:46:21 05/20/03 Tue (210.55.47.115)
I would love to say guess what I'm watching, but I still haven't got the kinks sorted out of that particular website...so guess what I'm listening to....It took all night to download...which is why I'm so tired, and I still have storyboards to do for a presentation...Help me out, I'm looking for representations from the media of people a) are normal everyday "everyman" (yes got Xander, and Homer J) b) someone who blindly follows the company line (I was thinking of Frank Burns from MASH...Smithers from Simpsons
I'll have a look at the rant once, I finished typing here.

: O *evil* Greenstone!!! -- Horty ...........would never *ahem* use certain sites......, 18:10:05 05/20/03 Tue (62.253.32.6)
...no, computer does not let me, it's like my conscience or something dammit. Downloads but won't open the files...Grrr...
At this point, I'm also slightly distracted by alpha board because toothy has just arrived and told me he is disappointed in me for reading (and saying that I agreed with) that post I just told you about. toothy is just so lovely, & I don't want to upset him.
Anyhow, let me think...representations from the media of people:
a) are normal everyday "everyman"
b) someone who blindly follows the company line
International media? Both TV & film?
a)Hmmmm...well, I would say that the character of Lester Burnham from the film American Beauty was portrayed as Mr Average.
Do you get Eastenders in NZ? Not really international & also v dull.
b) I keep thinking of that Jerry Maguire film. But he ended up ditching the company line and leaving. Who else, can't think...
Horty *will keep thinking on this.....and alpha has now gone lockless, just can't post anything...Grrrrrr...*

I'm paying for it tho...Can hear, but can't see... -- Greenstone, 18:29:10 05/20/03 Tue (210.55.47.115)
Think I would have to download some other software, but it requires me to abandon the computer, and I have other stuff to do...Many I'll let it run when I leave...I'm being really bad considering there is a power crisis and all...
But Buffy does sound sincere in the cavern...
I been thinking Ken Barlow...then I thought about the heroes that rose to greatness from humble beginnings...Even Harry Potter/Frodo/Luke/and Neo started of as normal schmoes...
I'm meant to be coming up with ideas of how we can give little scenarios to describe theory...and I want to do it from a media point of view, so that people can see it easier...
Bit confused by what Toothy said? Why disappointed...? Opinion=good...
Last night someone said something about they thought they could see the set on one of the scenes...I'm thinking it was Xander's shot....I hope that he hasn't thrown in some deep meaningful, POV, postmodernism stuff that is so hard to find most of us don't get it...Wish I could see it...

*sigh* -- Horty, 18:45:35 05/20/03 Tue (62.253.32.6)
...toothy just had a go at me. And I'm upset now dammit, on one hand he has a point, I have not yet seen the finale. On the other hand, I'm not sure what to think. I don't know how to respond.

Seeing both sides, but your biggest complain is about what lacks -- Greenstone, 19:06:18 05/20/03 Tue (210.55.47.115)
And that is obvious from the script and the wildfeeds...and even hearing it...

I am writing a response to........ -- Horty, 19:29:32 05/20/03 Tue (62.253.32.6)
...toothy. I think the difficulty is that all the creative people that write about BtVS may be rather disillusioned if the finale is not of the Shakespearian quality we hoped it could be. Hmmmmm....for guys it must be like a football match where you know your team is good enough but they fail to score. Or just miss the mark. Who knows...maybe he got overly impassioned as I think he was just about to watch the finale. Kinda the stage I was at on Saturday when I read JW comments about the finale giving us a 'beautiful feminist message'. Which made me rather disillusioned about the ideology behind the show or something.
Horty *has psychology hat on for this one*

Yip!!! Sometimes when the All Blacks win, they get there worst critics -- Greenstone- cause we expect better, 19:49:05 05/20/03 Tue (203.96.111.237)
Going with the sport analogy, and with good intent to Massey...there is a literary term to describe using a word like that in 10 hours it will come to me...
And it's pouring down here :-). Can us a little bit of power then...
See you tomorrow
