The most recent is the series Lost. I just finished watching it on Netflix and I was blown away. J.J. Abrams of course is a genius, but to be able to film a first episode and the final scene, then keep the show going in the right direction for all six years, is fucking amazing. Plus, the storyline, the characters, everything about that show just rocked my world.
I don't know how many times I cried during the last few episodes. Too many to count.
Is there a book, tv show, or movie you wish you'd written? If so, what?
Okay, here's the Friday Scribbles:
Next Pandora Song: So Long by Ingrid Michaelson (Fun Channel)
Book of the Week: Considering I've not read anything lately, um..I guess I don't have one? Oh wait, I'll go with my friend Gae Polisner's The Pull of Gravity, which just came out in paperback this week. Go buy it.
Netflix of the Week: Duh, Lost Season Six. Did you know there was a 12 minute epilogue video too? You can find it here.
Quote of the Week: There were a lot of good ones from the show Lost, but this is my favorite, and I find myself saying it, just like Desmond, quite often. "See you in another life, Brotha." ~ Desmond Hume to Jack Shepard.
Happy Friday all. Have a good weekend!
There's an awful lot I wish I could write. Just now, probably The Dresden Files is near the top of the list. Jim Butcher writes Harry's world so clearly and makes his perils so compelling to read. I'm looking forward to meeting him in April!
ReplyDeleteHmm, I'll have to check that out!
ReplyDeleteThere are so many books and TV shows and movies that I love, and I would have been happy writing any of them. But certain authors appeal to me because of what they write and how they write it. Aaron Sorkin, Cameron Crowe, and Jonathan Tropper for example. I don't think I could pick just one thing I wish i'd written, but if I could pick one author I wish I could write like it would be John Green. If I could write one page as good as him I'd die a happy man. Hell, I'd be happy if I could write like me since I never seem to find the time to write anything anymore.
ReplyDeleteI hear that Chris. I'm just forcing myself to squeeze in writing. Even if it's just a sentence. If I don't, I would never get anything done. To be honest, I've not read a John Green book, though I have many of his books and they are on my list. But of course I've heard he's amazing.
ReplyDeleteGood luck finding the time to write. It's hard, but it can be done!
