Changed up my LJ layout in over a year and I've forgotten how to customize certain things...Where is brittania when you need her?

Also, I don't know if I ever made a post about it here, but you can find me on Tumblr at JediJ or PrettyBSG !!!

Posting to see if brittaniastill checks lj. ;)

Oh, and hi everyone!

EDIT: Right after I posted this I checked the Disneyland website and discovered while Brittany and I are there, guess who is the celebrity Christmas narrator?

Needless to say we are both freaking out.

Exactly one year ago today (the 25th), amidala_thrace posted her last lj entry. I know it wasn't until March that she passed away, but it still feels weird not to have any direct closure.

But, I guess regardless of what was true and what was made-up, I still miss her.

Britt, here you go!

1-year anniversary of the BSG finale.

brittania is hosting a celebration over at her journal.

guess I'm going to start watching...

2010-03-15T03:44:44Z

Looks like I'm going to have to start watching Eureka. According to the Hollywood Reporter, James Callis will being joining the cast for the show's 4th season. I've only seen maybe one episode but his role sounds like a lot of fun and I think I'll start watching the series to get fired up for his return to Syfy.

More information here!

I'm probably way more excited than I should be, but I am!

2010-03-13T02:23:43Z

Tonight's episode of Caprica featured the scene/location that brittania and I watched being filmed a few months ago. Check the pictures and original post here!

And guys? I'm liking Caprica way more than I thought I would. If you're not watching this series, I highly suggest you check it out.

True Affection - The Blow

Your depths made a pressure that punctured my works
And all your fluids couldn't tolerate the force of my thirst
I love the place where we shared our tiny grace
But just because it's real don't mean it's gonna work

The Special Two - Missy Higgins

And we could only see each other, we'd bleed together,
These arms would not be taught to need another,
'Cause we're the special two

Beautiful Man - Lori McKenna

I want to save you from yourself
I want to save you from everybody else
I want to be inside you whenever I can
And I am doing the best that I can
For my beautiful man

Rat Within the Grain - Damien Rice w/ Lisa Hannigan

I only wanted to be wonderful
And wonderful is true
In truth I only really wanted
To be wanted by you

Sort Of - Ingrid Michaelson

And if I was stronger then I would tell you no
And if I was stronger then I would leave this show
And if I was stronger I would get up and go
But here I am
And here we go again

You Are Not Alone - Patty Griffin

She says you are not alone
Laying in the light
Put out the fire in your head
And lay with me tonight

Swans - Unkle Bob

You tell me that you love me but you never want to see me again

Edge of Desire - John Mayer

Don't say a word just come over and lie here with me
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see
I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me

Flirted With You All My Life - Vic Chestnut

And everywhere I go
You're always right there with me
Flirted with you all my life
Even kissed you once or twice
And to this day I sweat it was nice
But clearly I was not ready

Please Don't Go - Barcelona

All those arrows you threw, you threw them away
You kept falling in love, then one day
When you fell, you fell towards me
When you crashed in the clouds, you found me

Save You - Matthew Perryman Jones

Don't want to make it up
Don't want to let you down
I want to fly away
But i'm stuck on the ground

Kingdom Come - Coldplay

For you I’d wait 'til kingdom come
Until my days, my days are done
And say you'll come and set me free
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me

2010-01-26T18:00:17Z

So who here watches Supernatural? I JUST started season one and I already think I like it. Jeffery Dean Morgan automatically makes any show better. I just hope I can watch without only seeing Dean from the Gilmore Girls. ;)

And Tyra (Adrianne Palicki) from Friday Night Lights is in the Supernatural pilot? Awesome.

Edit: X-Files reference? I'll take it!

Edit #2: Doc Cottle and Leoben in the 2nd episode? Hello BSG/Vancouver

Oh, and I finally watched Caprica and I can't believe I'm saying this, but I really liked it! I'm actually super excited for the series to get going. Anyone else?

why not

This is why I love Mo Ryan (television critic for the Chicago Tribune) and yet another reason why I stopped watching SGU after the 2nd episode.

Caprica filming location pics!

2009-10-05T00:54:39Z

A few weeks ago, Caprica filmed a few scenes for their sixth episode in a neighborhood near brittania's apartment. We were lucky to catch a few pictures and here they are. WARNING! Spoilers for Caprica ahead:

Everyone on set was super nice and allowed us to watch and take pictures. I was wearing my BSG sweatshirt I wore when The Plan filmed next to my apartment in the fall (Pics and a recap can be seen here) and I had a couple crew members give me props for it. Paula Malcomson who plays Amanda Graystone was on location filming and we were told Eric Stoltz had filmed a scene in a different location early in the morning. Oh, we were also told they were filming for the sixth episode.

Sort of reminded us of the memorial wall in BSG.

According to a PA this scene was going to involve a lot of extras and be shot in the late afternoon/early evening.

They shot in this neighborhood for about 5-6 hours but never really shut down traffic, which should make for some interesting editing.

The director of this episode is Wayne Rose (pictured above). He directed Blood on the Scales, Guess What's Coming to Dinner, Dirty Hands, and all the webisodes and flashbacks. He also was a 2nd unit director for 62 episodes. Here's his IMDB page.

Wayne figuring out how he wants to shoot the scene.

The car w/ flames and smoke! Oh the special effects!

Background actors in costume.

Background actors running to the "crashed" car, trying to help whomever was inside.

Walking back to their original positions after a shot. Something to note, many characters had cell phones!

Happy Dollhouse Friday!!!! I've been hearing good things about the season 2 premiere so I'm pretty excited to see where this season takes us (not to mention this episode has the beautiful Mr. Jamie Bamber guest starring).

I started following Dennys Ilic on twitter you might remember him as the guy who took those amazing BSG behind the scenes photos:

Anyway, he posted a really cool little video of Michael Rymer accepting the Emmy nomination for Best Director (Daybreak Part 2).

i'm an idiot

2009-09-04T21:21:06Z

Sooooo this morning I got up and was messing around the internet, I put my computer down to get something from the kitchen and I tripped over the cat and stepped hard on my computer screen. I BROKE SPARKY!!!!! I called my parents and brittania to see if they had any suggestions. I took the computer and Brit's old one to the store to see if I could get the hard drive switched over to a different computer. But there was really nothing they could do besides tell me to buy a new hard deck (I don't even know what that means) and they would transfer the information over. So I'm writing this post by having connected the computer to the TV, My weekend of television watching and icon making probably won't happen now. My Dad wants me to wait until i get back to the States to purchase a new computer so I'm looking at at least 3 weeks or more without having a properly working computer. Top off my technology fail with my iPod breaking down, 2009 has not been my technology year.

If I'm not around as much or don't comment this is probably the reason why. I'll try and get up a better post a bit later, but right now I'm just trying to unwind from this unexpected morning issue.
