Weekly feature: Excerpt from original script

This week's featured episode is Lullaby, in which Darla gives birth. As you might remember, Darla runs away and Angel later finds her on a roof.


Gunn and Angel have a brief exchange regarding tracking Darla.

ANGEL: She went this way.

GUNN: You can smell her?

ANGEL: Tire tracks.

GUNN: Right. I saw those.


I love the scenes where Gunn "get's a little lost". Like this scene, with the xenophobia bit.

Funny/naughty poster

In case you like the two sketches above, and you think the rest of the A-Z of awesomeness sketches is pretty awesome, you can buy a limited poster, signed, and with a original sketch too.

Lookie

I ordered one, with a Buffy sketch that says "Everybody calls me 'ma'am' these days." (Which is a Buffy quote from Season 8, issue 1).

I'll post a pic of it when I get it.

Joss gets arrested!

Joss is a funny dude.

Don't miss the comments. There was some "Good that Joss is brought to justice, he killed a lot of beloved characters" talk going on and a funny fake article was written.

Little ol' Spike.

The Spike Eaglemoss figurine + magazine is released.

In case you're not in the UK, you can't order from that site, so I recommend ebay, or possibly another online store.

Here's more info about him.

For more pictures, look at the first post in this thread.

A good idea would be to look on ebay and ask for close-up pics of his face, so your Spike won't have a horrible paint-job.

Also, don't take the magazine too seriously. Mistakes are made, for example, a fellow fan who has the magazine told me "They said that the poster at the back was a picture of the scoobies in season four. Yet it was clearly season five seing as Dawn was in it.".

Auto cards.

Ever wanted autographs from your favorite actors but can't afford going to conventions?

Inkworks.com used to do autographed cards, which are selling for only a few bucks on ebay these days.

Like this one.

A cheaper and safe way(since other kinds of autographs on ebay can be easily faked) of getting a autograph.

Living in London and having too much money?

Look no more.

Link to auction( £99.99 or make offer, pick up in London only)

Joking aside, I want it to put my Buffy/Angel books in. Not sure if it's strong enough tough.

The Evil Smoking Vampire

Here's a short, funny and extremely silly Angelus/Nina fic, where Angelus shakes his booty and teaches Nina how to smoke evilly.

The Evil Smoking Vampire

Great deal.

Just want to tell you about a great find.

Willowswarlok, who's work I often show at this blog, is selling two of his best pieces, for a very low price (relatively low for his work, I still can't afford it).

A Faith 6" figure(as she appears on the cover of issue 6 of Season 8) and a X-men Phoenix bust.

Clicky.

This weeks featured episode is from season 3 of Angel, named Couplet(Groo has returned and Angel feels threatened, Gunn and Fred gets kidnapped by a tree monster, etc etc).

After Wesley compares Angel's uniqueness to the rare volumes in the bookseller's shop(read dialogue here), not only does Lionel announce that he has three copies of the book Wesley requested, but he goes even further to unintentionally cut down Angel by admitting:

"Cover's coming off this one. I'll give you twenty percent off and a free bookmark."

My source for Angel excerpts is as always, The Casefiles vol 1-2 by Paul Ruditis and Diana G. Gallagher

Model kit figurine

You know, I like to collect a little bit of everything from the Buffyverse.

I buy books I'm not likely to read, cards, tote bags, posters, action figures.

But I don't think I'll be buying this.

A 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer female figure horror Model Kit'.

I just wonder, other than her name on the headstone and a cross, where's Buffy?

She's hot, but the likeness is not there. Also, that you have to assemble and paint it yourself is a dealbreaker for me. I have no skill.

So why do I post the auction here?

I guess I need a excuse to look at hot figurines.

Harmony tie-in

Have you read the new free Season 8/Harmony e-comic yet?

Harmony comes to the nation

That link is to slayalive.com, since not everyone(including me) can access myspace that easy.

Not sure about when it takes place(I haven't had time to read it yet).

Christian Kane singing.

Music is good for the soul.

At least this kind of music.

Here's a hilarious cut line from the Buffy season 5 Doublemeat Palace.
Dawn shares Willow's feelings on the delay in getting a response from the chemical testing of the Doublemeat burger.

"So much suspense. It's like taking a pregnancy test... when they do that in pregnancy test commercials."



That might have been my favorite Dawn quote if it had been aired.

Wanna be a vampire?

Don't worry, no need to drink blood. Check out this thread, where your pictures can get "vampirified" by TabulaRasa.

Look what I did with this pic of SMG and vampire Willow.

In Checkpoint(Buffy, season 5) the Council comes to town and starts to test Buffy's slayer abilities and question all her friends. I think the following excerpt is from this dialogue.


Anya's false history to the Council went on a little longer in the script:

"And when I was seven, I had a pet dachshund that died from choking on a wiener, which I find ironic."

A fellow named Bobby(he likes my blog so obviously he's awesome) emailed me about this other cool blog that has lots of Angel and Buffy games.

Look here and here.

Weekly feature: Excerpt from original script

The speech Angelus gives in Passion(Buffy, season 2) is completely different from the one that was in the original script. The cheerful original version was as follows:

"Passion, it is born, and though uninvited, unwelcome, unwanted like a cancer, it takes root. It festers. It bleeds. It scabs only to rupture, and bleed anew. It grows, it thrives until it consumes. It lives so, it must die in time. Passion, it drives some to distraction, some to despair, some to vengeance. It drives some to murder and others to madness. Passion is the source of hope and the cause of despair. It is the source of life and the cause of death."

Here's the aired version:

"Passion. It lies in all of us. Sleeping... ...waiting... And though unwanted... ...unbidden... it will stir...open its jaws, and howl. It speaks to us... guides us... Passion rules us all. And we obey. What other choice do we have?

Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love... the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief.

It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow. Empty rooms, shuttered and dank... Without passion, we'd be truly dead."

I don't know about you, but I think the original version represents Angelus more. His hatred for emotions/passion can be cleary seen in the original, while in the aired version, he's just a story teller.

I understand that the voice over for the episode could have been read by any character, since it's more a lesson about passion, not a character's point of view of passion. Don't get me wrong, I don't think Angelus disagree with everything in the speech, but since it was read by Angelus, I wanted it to be more like the original version. Because I don't think he would have called "the joy of love" one of his/ours "finest moments".
