The Pick-a-Date meme, aka GIVE ME TOPICS! GIVE THEM TO ME NOW!

[jetpack_monkey]

Ahem. Sorry. Throwing my hat into the ring of "posting on topics provided by friends". It's an abbreviated schedule because I missed the first few days.

So here's how it works -- at the bottom of the post are the days of December. If you want to read my witty, scintillating thoughts on a subject, claim a day in the comments.

I'll talk about anything, but here's some general areas where I might have more thoughts than others: running a website, vidding, horror movies, movies in general, comic books, atheism/agnosticism, video games, and anything listed in my user interests.

So here's the list of dates. Multiple topics encouraged. Leave a comment!

December 3 -- This.
December 4 -- Tell us about your vidding process. In general, or of one specific vid you've made if you prefer. (thirdblindmouse )
December 5 -- Ramble on about your favorite Universal monster. (elipie )
December 6 -- How does it feel to be (such an awesome) dude in the so heavily female dominated vidding world? Do you see something gendered in vidding, or is it just the sort of thing that more dudes would like if they'd--IDK, let go and embrace their feels more?? :D (cesperanza )
December 7 -- please explain gregory peck's left eyebrow (kiki_miserychic )
December 8 -- what do you think was the main message behind Wonderfalls? (kiki_miserychic )

How does it feel to be (such an awesome) dude in the so heavily female dominated vidding world? Do you see something gendered in vidding, or is it just the sort of thing that more dudes would like if they'd--IDK, let go and embrace their feels more?? :D

Put you down for December 6th. This should be interesting.

Well, how about I shamelessly copy my question to fan_eunice for December 19: What is the One True Vid (or more, if you want) of your heart that you don't think you'll ever make?

[jetpack_monkey]

How about you do that! :D

I'm up for seconds if you'll have me - I'm really wondering, if as a film person yourself, you've been noticing the really terrible continuity editing in the blockbusters of late. To me it's as annoying - and as obvious, and sadly now happens almost as often - as typos in the running scroll boards at the bottom of news programs, or people saying the "T" in often when they shouldn't. I am guessing that it is because the film is so expensive to shoot that if its too long, they just hack it out scenes, or if they don't have the shots they need, they just assume we won't notice. But I feel shocked and appalled by the sloppiness of mainstream film of the most expensive kind! Am I crazy?

Sorry, I realize that this sounds more like a Dear Jetpack Monkey, like you're an advice guru; so maybe I'll sign myself "Appalled Spectator"

December 16th! Should be interesting.

Dec 4 - Ramble on about your favorite Universal monster.

Bwahaha. Yesssss. Excellent. Looking forward to this.

Dec. 15- How did you find fandom, and how long have you been involved? What about fandom appealed to you, and what place does it have in your life?

[jetpack-monkey.livejournal.com]

Added! Great question!

[qkellie.livejournal.com]

I think it would be very edgy to talk about agnosticism/atheism on December 25.

[jetpack-monkey.livejournal.com]

You rebel.
