meme: do you know my canon?

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

If you're like me, you're having a lazy weekend. Thus, this seemed like a fun thing to add to the day and we haven't done this since June of last year. And this meme's an easy one!

Ping in with your canon (as specifically as you'd like for giant insane comic, SW and Power Ranger stuff). Then wait for other people to ping in with their canons! If you're familiar with it, tell them! And then, yay, new people to squee with!

I bet almost every single one of you would be lying if you said you hadn't picked up a new canon while playing here. I know I'd be lying. So, time to share and squee!

Gossip Girl

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

I salute you if you're still keeping up with the show.

Re: Gossip Girl

[atreideslioness]

You are completely responsible for getting me into the show, and I'm not keeping up with it. Except to watch it online, and skip any parts that aren't Serena being a mess or Little J being Little J.

LOST

[talkstodeadppl.livejournal.com]

brb weeping about the finale tomorrow.

Re: LOST

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

Seriously, zomg. I have no idea what to expect.

Vampire Academy

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

Which still has me in trauma after the new canon this week.

December 7th is the day, yo.

Re: Vampire Academy

[nothornlessrose.livejournal.com]

That day is NEVER a good omen.

The Vampire Diaries

[eternalstud.livejournal.com]

Which you should be watching because, I swear to god, it's the best show on the CW right now.

The power of slash compels you

Re: The Vampire Diaries

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

I read the books! And now that the season's over, I'll so be watching.

Star Wars: New Jedi Order

[solo_sword]

Not that Jaina's technically in the NJO canon anymore, but she used to be, so!

Re: Star Wars: New Jedi Order

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

Now that I have them all, reading will come soon.

Damn you.

The Black Jewels

[nothornlessrose.livejournal.com]

Main character has so much power that it sets her apart from everyone else.

Queens and Warlord Princes decide to adopt the High Lord of Hell!

KINDRED!! (I will find a way for Cassidy to have a Sceltie come to Fandom)

Also, most bizarre plot device of the crackiest type ever... MAGICAL COCK RINGS!

Re: The Black Jewels

[glacial_queen]

...Uh, I've read it.

Teen Titans

[trigons_child]

The comic, not that crappy cartoon.

Re: Teen Titans

[blondecanary.livejournal.com]

DC UNITE!

... or, I read the George Perez run in the original, and loved it for ages, until I don't know, the fifth time someone died or went evil.

And let's not talk about Dick's disco-era uniforms, okay?

Smallville

[armybrat-lois.livejournal.com]

But even I gave up in s7. Even though I do tune in for zombie episodes.

Re: Smallville

[notavalleygirl.livejournal.com]

First off, that icon is still horrifying.

Second off, I used to watch and just kind of lost track of things in season two or something, and then I had to watch the Wonder Twins ep, just to see how it went. (And then Lois almost got killed by John Sheppard's brother while calling Clark a Skywalker and said brother got trapped in a limo with Jayna the Wonder Twin and the meta still kills me.) And then I stopped and had to come back to see Michael Shanks and The Voice. And then I got stuck watching a bunch of eps again.

It's so like bad Syfy movies for me. Those also star Michael Shanks.

X-Men Evolution

[notavalleygirl.livejournal.com]

Reasons I love this show: I got this icon from it. I mean, come on.

Re: X-Men Evolution

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

I watch it at like 4 am when I can't sleep. So I can guarantee you I've never watched this show with pants on.

Just trying to add something to your day.

Veronica Mars

[surferboy-09er.livejournal.com]

True story, I can't hear the theme song anymore without cringing because it was the song my alarm clock was set to in college.

Re: Veronica Mars

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

Man, those last two seasons. What a waste. WHY CASSIDY WHY?

Star Wars: Original Crispy Recipe

[likes_scoundrels]

"...looking back at the best of the Star Wars saga with dewy-eyed reverence — or recalling how good Star Wars can be when George Lucas isn't directing it."

Re: Star Wars: Original Crispy Recipe

[rocksthescarf.livejournal.com]

Watch it alllllll the time.

The Graveyard Boy

[therewaslife]

Oooh, there are ghosts! And a vampire! And the bad guy's called the man Jack! And some Gaiman guy wrote it!

Re: The Graveyard Boy

[likes-chicken.livejournal.com]

That book got me through my training at my former job. I may or may not have been listening to it on my iPod when I was supposed to be reviewing the giant textbooks of evil.

Charmed

[sensethevisions]

Four Three sisters are born to be the main weapon of good in the war of good versus evil...

...and also spend time falling in love with "unsuitable" men, going through a slutty fashion phase, and being crazy bitches because the writers forget who they are!

However, it is still one of my favorite shows even if I refuse to watch certain seasons...

Re: Charmed

[imonscholarship.livejournal.com]

I watched until Prue died, though I have caught the occasional Paige episode on TV.

Grey's Anatomy

[fratboybitch.livejournal.com]

There are doctors in a hospital and they all sleep with each other! And there's medical stuff too.

Did you cry at the season finale? I DID.

Re: Grey's Anatomy

[eternalstud.livejournal.com]

My roommate made me watch it and I genuinely enjoyed most of it until Meredith "died". Then I was like "...fuck this and fuck you, Grey's."

BUT I DO ENJOY THAT POSEIDON, LORD OF THE SEA, IS ON NOW.

The Giver

[see-beyond.livejournal.com]

A really, really creepy book about a really creepy Community and the one kid that manages to escape! DRAMA!!!

Re: The Giver

[eternalstud.livejournal.com]

I read this in high school. And I wanted that kid and his brother to die. NO OFFENSE. I JUST DON'T LIKE BEING FORCED TO READ.

Tortall

[noearsyet.livejournal.com]

Girls dressing up as boys to become knights and dashing Kings of Thieves (if he does say so himself!). Magic and daring and lots of girl power!

Re: Tortall

[glacial_queen]

IT HAS SO MANY OF MY FAVORITE TROPES.

And I spent the whole series yelling that if Alanna picked Jonathan over George, I would punch her in the face.

...I have a weird relationship with my books, I know.

Blade: Trinity

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

This movie is ridiculous but that's what makes it awesome. Also, Ryan Reynolds being hot and snarky. YOU KNOW YOU LOVE IT.

Re: Blade: Trinity

[eternalstud.livejournal.com]

I watch this all the time. But I have to put my dvd in because when it's on Spike all the cursing's cut out and it takes away from the movie.

Generation X / X-Men

[icecoldfrost]

My specific corner of the Marvel Universe/616.

I'm about to get Jossed again, (ow, the art, the writing, my souuuul!). Drink with me, my friends, to days gone by, when Emma was AWESOME.

Re: Generation X / X-Men

[glacial_queen]

...I have no idea how to respond to this one. I mean, I've read a bunch of X-men, but damned if I know where it all fits in.

The Enchantment Emporium

[justagalegirl.livejournal.com]

Oh Tanya Huff was on the good crack when she wrote this one. A magical family who bakes charmed pies. All the men have invisible antlers. And there are dragons in a junk shop.

Re: The Enchantment Emporium

[glacial_queen]

Srsly. WTF?

I had fun with it, oh yes. But WTF?

Rogue Angel

[spiritandsword]

Kick ass female archaeologist finds out she's the spiritual descendant of Joan of Arc and gets a magic sword to help protect innocents and keep "mythological" artifacts out of the hands of the bad guys.

Of which there are many.

Re: Rogue Angel

[neurotic-witch.livejournal.com]

I have a read a few of the books, as you well know :P

The Red Star

[gorka-wolf.livejournal.com]

If you don't know it, I can change that...

Re: The Red Star

[need-no-moon.livejournal.com]

OMG SO YOUR FAULT! Did I tell you I got the two first chapters in big versions too now? Because I was sad when the limited edition was smaller and didn't seem to fit with the rest.

Want more now.

To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar

[auntie-vida.livejournal.com]

Sometimes, pumpkins, it just takes a fairy.

Re: To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar

[nothornlessrose.livejournal.com]

I so need a copy of this movie because I love it so much.

Children of Dune

[atreideslioness]

History is written on the sands of Arrakis.

Re: Children of Dune

[sensethevisions]

I so need to get this mini series since Ghanima is the favoritest person ever for two of my girls. :D

The Buffyverse

[notagoodslayer.livejournal.com]

And I realized Faith had more cannon after No Future for You, huzzah!

Re: The Buffyverse

[iruinenglish.livejournal.com]

I might be a little into it.

I haven't read s8, though, and for this I'm glad.

Merlin

[bitchprince]

In a time that's... medieval... and full of medium-sized evil... one boy has the power... to be powerful..

Re: Merlin

[imonscholarship.livejournal.com]

I watch the occasional episode on Syfy. And I still have no idea what's going on. But I do enjoy me some British accents.
