DPP: Vent at Joe's Bar

[rayruz.livejournal.com]

Hey, I know I said I was going to post a two day thing? Eh... I changed my mind! :D I'm not sure if we've done this one before but I figured I'm going to go for it anyways. Tomorrow's post is going to come a little bit late in the day and I might do the two-day challenge then, because it's a little involved and takes a bit more time.

Anyways, what are we venting at Joe's about? 

Unpopular Pilots (and other Fandom) Opinions.

I thought some of these might be coming up since we've been thinking so much about the scenes and the voting. Ever feel alone in what you think? Are you afraid to speak your mind sometimes because the other shippers don't agree with your opinion? Well pull up a barstool, get a drink, and spill it. Bartenders are, of course, the everyman's therapist.

Okay, I've got two unpopular opinions here.

1. I don't love the brig scene from Six of One. I'm not sure what it is, since I was squeeing along with everybody else when it aired. Maybe I'm bitter because I know what comes next. Or maybe it's just that I can't stand to rewatch it because I don't like the way it was shot.

2. I don't like the towel scene. I don't! I think it's silly. Who cannot hold onto a towel? Also, I don't find Jamie/Lee particularly attractive...and I prefer him with his clothes on. Whenever I watch this scene, I watch Kara to see her reaction. Because she's far more interesting to me than exhibitionist!Apollo.

Re 1: Me too and I can't quite say why either, but I think it's cause it's shot strangely and it marks a change in their relationship. Also to me it seems like it's not really them anymore, no their old selves anyway.

Re 2: It's because the towel's so small! how can you not find Jamie attractive! Insane!

HAhaahahahahaha! Oh my goodness those are AWESOME!!! (again, overwhelmed by the awkwardness of everyone sharing their secrets and baring their souls today.) When I read your post I thought REALLY? She DOESN'T like those scenes. Is that possible???

So funny! :>D

And BTW I think your reasons are totally rational. I guess I never really though about either of them until you just said it.

Ha, well I'm glad they amused you!

OMG. I don't agree with you, but I think you make very good points. I loved both scenes. And my only problem with the towel scene was the fact that it was too small. Who uses towels like that? But how can you not think Jamis is attractive???? :O
The concept that someone could think that just boggles my mind. Gosh,I think that would be the top one the list of unpopular opinions. LOL

Haha, well it's not that he's unattractive. I just think he's a bit...boring looking. And he's too muscly. Weird, I know. But he just doesn't do it for me.

I must admit, Jamie, not really very attractive to me at all (but what can I say, I have a thing for skinny pale musicians). The character of Lee was always far more interesting to me than his appearance.
