I was scrolling through my LJ recently in an attempt to get a feeling for what the fannish landscape of 2013 has been thus far, and one thing I noticed is that I have done the (admittedly, super-awesome) Tennis Match Meme about a BILLION times in the last six months.

So my personal challenge for the next four weeks is to post (and play) with some of the many, many, many other memes that exist on the internet.

Starting with....

...and gacked from [livejournal.com profile] musesfool:

1. Comment on this post with the revolution will be televised.
2. I will give you a letter.
3. Think of 5 fictional characters and post their names and your comments on these characters in your LJ/DW.


[livejournal.com profile] qualapec gave me the letter 'J' which was super mean of her.

Jones, Indiana. He’s just the epitome of cool, okay? Go watch Raiders of The Lost Ark if you don’t believe me.

John Diggle. I don’t have much to say about Diggle.. Narratively, I like that he found out Oliver’s secret pretty quickly, because Oliver needs as many people as he can get telling him when he’s being an hot-headed lunatic (always). I found his relationship with Carly really adobs until their actual first date, which made me think that Carly was ready to move on but Diggle wasn’t. I like that Diggle’s reaction to Felicity joining the team was ‘self-defense training time, yay!’.

Those are all my thoughts.

John Conner exists so that we can focus on his mother and his killer robot girlfriend and their quest to save the world from Skynet.

Jaye Tyler. HEROINE OF MY GENERATION.

I loved Wonderfalls when it was first airing, but I didn’t love Jaye the way I do now. Because when Wonderfalls was first airing, I was an optimistic 15 years old. Now, I’m ALMOST 26 MY GOD SO OLD, having earned a BA and embarked into a workforce filled with twenty/thirty somethings who are all over educated and unemployable. Basically, I just get Jaye so much more now and she seems like such a prescient character. (Saint Jaye is right.)

It’s hard for me to verbalize all my Jaye Tyler feelings. Maybe when my rewatch is finished I’ll have more to say.

(FYI, J is a really hard letter to do this meme on, and I spent about a billion years thinking of all the fannish Jacks and Johns and Jeremys that I didn’t want to waste words on.)

James “Bucky” Buchanan Barnes. I am really looking forward to watching Natasha and Steve rescue this dude like the BAMFs they are, come 4.14.14.

The winter soldier is a ghost.

(ETA: right when I was ready to post I remembered Joan Watson, who is 100% flaw-free.)

I though L would be easy! Would you like a new letter?

the revolution will be televised

Happy to oblige! And I was raised on the Indiana Jones movies.

R.

I think you can guess why I'm giving you that letter.
Sunday, July 21st, 2013 10:11 am (UTC)
I'm thinking because I can only think of a handful of fictional characters who have 'R' in their names?

THE REVOLUTION WILL BE TELEVISED.

Indiana Jones is, and will probably always be, my absolute fave. :D

My comment is super-late, I'm sorry! If you still want to do this, your letter is B.

I haven't watched Elementary yet and even I know Joan Watson is flaw free.
Saturday, September 14th, 2013 09:27 am (UTC)
Sorry my comment is so late!

Your letter is F!

You can read my answers on my latest entry. :)

J IS really hard, my goodness.

The revolution will be televised though.

Because I always see all of your memes, and never comment, and then feel vaguely guilty about that later: I will go with M. Since that is a super-common letter.

Who is Diggle? At first I was like '...the pilot from those ancient boys' adventure stories?' before I remembered that was Biggles.

Diggle is a secondary character on Arrow.
