from beneath you it devours

orangerfulI I've started into Buffy Season 7. Watched the rest of "Beneath You" today, which I started while babysitting wednesday night. But GRR ARGH turns out my DVD is damaged! It freaked out during the last 10 minute and was skipping all over. So I think I'll take it with me when I go to buy the library gift this afternoon. It's that stupid fold out packaging, the discs are constantly popping out and sliding all over. Happened with my Angel season 3 as well.
Anyhoo - on the plus side, i did pick up on some stuff in that episode that I think probably flew over my head the first time. Subtle things that either the director/writer and/or Marsters did with Spike in the scene in the alley. First, he runs like old spike when he's following Buffy, with his arms out and his feet up, very vamp like. Then when he starts to fight the demon he grabs a large (duh) spike. Then we he stabs the worm demon and it turns back into Ronnie, you can see the horror and realization of what he's done. Then when he's talking to Buffy he twirls the spike in his hands, just like he twirled the pool cue back in season 5. Marsters is far too good at playing crazy.
Found out Starz! Theater is running LotR:RotK all this week three times a day. hehe. It's on right now so I've got it playing in the background while I type. We watched a chunk of it on Wednesday as well. And I watched the commentary last week...*sigh* I guess I'm addicted.

kimberleym was super lucky and got to see a preview screening of the Hitchhiker's Guide movie coming out this summer. I'm so jealous. I need to read them all over again, though I'm pretty sure I still have the first book memorized. I used to have a cassette tape that I made of the TV miniseries and I listened to it constantly, and it's pretty much word for word to book. I'm so excited about this summer's movies - Serenity, HHGTTG, RotS...even the War of the Worlds remake has me interested. I hope one of them comes out while we're in Indianapolis for Celebration III so we have something to do that Friday night!
