starsthatshineI just finished Life on Mars and I have one question:
What the fuck?!
I mean, I always thought that I understood what was going on, and I think I still do but... man, it's twisted. The 70's (or whatever era it was) was the coma!world, wasn't it? And the 21st century stuff was the real world, yeah? But he jumped off a frakking building and ended up staying in fantasy world. Sorta cute but entirely messed up. This head screws with your mind without you knowing it (and you get Gene's vocabulary - oh, lovely :P)
Welcome![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
comiskey to my flist :D I hope you'll have an awesome time :D
I suddenly felt like doing a Life on Mars/Doctor Who crossover *grins madly* Rose/Sam unite :D Keepin' it in the family and all ;) For those who don't know; their last names are both Tyler, which I somehow find amusing even though it's really ridiculous.
Seriously, I didn't realize how deep Life on Mars had me until now when I can't stop bloody thinking about it (again, I'm adapting Gene's wonderful vocabulary, I don't usually use words like this lol). I need more british shows to watch. All the shows I've watched are quality stuff, or at least quality entertainment. Doctor Who, Skins, Life on Mars, Torchwood (okay, it might be a bit... off but it's still good :P).
Speaking of shows, I tried to watch Hidden Palms but it's just this teenage drama type A. You've got the Marissa character (or Peyton character if you speak One Tree Hill), you've got the Ryan character (Lucas), the Seth character (Mouth), the Lindsay character (Brooke), the Anna character (Brian Greenberg's character's ex) etc. etc. and it makes it sort of predictable. Also, I hate TV that has perfect people on it. People who look perfect tends to have gotten the part based on their talent, maybe, but at least 50% goes into whether or not they are fit for the part, look-wise, which in my opinion is rather messed up, but that's TV these days...
Anyway, Hidden Palms, not a big hit.
Traveler though - FAN-FRICKIN' AMAZING!!!! If you haven't started watching this show, you're seriously missing out. I love it so bad. The actors are fantastic and the plot is actually intriguing. Let me just ask you this: Who is Will Traveler? (besides the obvious answer, Aaron Stanford *g*). Best show on right now.
I've changed my payment plan (or whatever you're supposed to call it) on my cellphone. Before I had Telia Refill (which any living person in Sweden knows costs a fortune and a half) but now I'm changing to Parlino (I got attacked by a salesman at ICA and then well... it sounded smart but it might end up costing me a lot more than what I have now because I rarely use my cellphone). Feel kinda bad about it, now after coming home and well... have time to think and looked up a couple of stuff that the salesman said that was incorrect. I hate the fact that you have to pay 99 SEK every month to keep that payment plan. Sure it's free to Telia, Tele3Conviq, Halebop and all those but... *headdesk* I rarely use 99 SEK in two months as it is now but then again, I might be rarely using my cellphone because it's such a high price now.
Not that it would make much difference. Well, the guy at the store said I could throw away the card if I wanted. Might do that when it's time to pay or something I suppose.
I was at H&M today (I had a weak moment, I had to shop something after my insanity yesterday *g*) and I found two tops. One of them I'm not sure about. Yellow sort of party top, but the other was this white halterneck that was extremely pretty, or at least it looked pretty on me. H&M doesn't exactly have pretty clothes. Or well, some, but in general things that are there are... well, I was about to use Gene's vocabulary again and say shit but that's not really fair considering H&M is Swedish in origin (lol) and well... they do have nice stuff on occasion.
However, I want to find a nice bag to have for school next year. Which they don't got so I have to go on a "city-wide search" next time I'm in town.
I want to buy a digital camera and rant about the things I see in stores... or rather, I just want a digital camera. *nods* I wanna take pictures and I want a video camera so I can make video clips and stuff. It would be hilarious *dreams*
Posted a new Micah/Molly story, along with a header if you want it, here if you haven't seen it already. Or you will have if you keep walking through your flist, I donno.
Now I've babbled enough. I'll go to bed now. Need to get my sleeping pattern in order.

Date: 2007-06-15 01:25 am (UTC)I guess that was the authorial intent. Personally, I would like to think that the 21c. thing was also a "dream" he had in his coma. Basically, the world he would imagine himself to be in if he ever got out of it. He decided to go over the rainbow and permanently remain in the coma, in this idealized world where he was the hero and got the girl. But my delusions and the plot of the spin off "Ashes to Ashes" don't jive. Whatever.
Watching him leap off the building disturbed me when I watched it then and even now when I think of it.

Date: 2007-06-15 09:35 am (UTC)Leaping of the building was something I found logical but I can't believe he actually did it because... what if he was insane and had imagined it all...

Date: 2007-06-15 09:39 am (UTC)I've actually started to like H&M. They have pretty clothes :) Though it depends on which H&M you're in, here, 'cause we have two (on different places, but still) and one is more youth-oriented, and the other one's not, so...
And 99:-/month seems kinda much if you don't use that much... I have telia and is happy with that, but then again, I'm using about under 50:-/month

Date: 2007-06-15 09:56 am (UTC)We have maybe five H&Ms scattered all over town but I don't know... in general there's not much to look at. Ellos on the other hand, have gorgeous stuff. Or at least based on what I saw on their website. KII got awesome stuff as well, but it's shit expensive :P
Yeah, it does seem like much and it will cost my shirt eventually. Or so it feels like. I have no regular income.

Date: 2007-06-15 11:09 am (UTC)To my mind, Sam decided to stay in his dream because it's much more funny. Nothing was waiting for him in 2006 (except his mum but still).
I'm sure 2006 is real. I mean a man of the 70s could have never imagined all this...okay you can tell a man of 2006 could not imagine all this either but anyway ;)
I think that at the end of the finale Sam died and that's why creepy little girl turned off the tv.
no subject
Date: 2007-06-15 11:18 am (UTC)Oh, I never thought about Sam dying in the end, but now when you say it, it makes a lot of sense. Spooky. I never understood that little girl. What was her story?

Date: 2007-06-15 08:45 pm (UTC)I don't know anything about this little girl but she always freaks me out :D

Date: 2007-06-15 04:17 pm (UTC)Gene's language is contageous, it's insane ;)

Date: 2007-06-15 03:22 pm (UTC)I wonder how they will pull of Ashes to Ashes in the 80s...

Date: 2007-06-15 04:19 pm (UTC)They're seriously doing a spin-off? HOW? I mean, the lead character is a goner...

Date: 2007-06-15 08:38 pm (UTC)I gotta say it seems pretty interesting :D
