Random Thoughts.....What are you thinking?
Cerberus.Pleebo said: » I think the Lost finale is fine if you don't go into it expecting hardline answers. It was a resolution for the characters and not the mythos. I was ok with the ending of Lost. It answered the important questions, and it gave a sense of resolution. Although, I am glad that I knew ahead of time about that final shot of the plane wreckage shown during the end credits. That shot wasn't supposed to be there - it was inserted by the network for "nostalgia".

I know when I first started watching anime a lot of it pissed me off. :x I don't think the ending was ambiguous.
Fenrir.Atheryn said: » I don't think the ending was ambiguous. I never watched the show. Was just the impression I was getting. I'll ammend it: "American audiences traditionally don't like endings that aren't clearly happy, neatly packaged endings." Movies are one thing, because they're short, one-shot deals. But when you invest in a television series for years on end and then the ending isn't everything you wanted, people get pissy. Hence the Bioware/ME3 thing. I personally think they should have held strong and not changed a thing. Bismarck.Ramyrez said: » Fenrir.Atheryn said: » I don't think the ending was ambiguous. I never watched the show.

Hence the Bioware/ME3 thing. I personally think they should have held strong and not changed a thing. Then in that case, that has little to do with American audiences. That's pretty universal, at least with the western world anyhow. Saddest (did not really expect it ending) ever for me... end of Witchblade.
I mean, I had an idea of how it was going to end, but was still hoping for a turn-around, everything will be okay kind of twist.

Did not like. =( Asura.Kingnobody said: » the fear still continues on (like December 8th for example).

Free campaign got ya a wee interested again? :x Shiva.Spathaian said: » *offers snacks* Asura.Bartimaeus said: » I sorta missed this place.. .-. Asura.Bartimaeus said: » Shiva.Spathaian said: » It has been alright. Free campaign got ya a wee interested again? :x I didn't actually learn about that until.. I dunno an hour ago? Bout a week or so ago me and a few friends were discussing XI. Usual nostalgia kick, except I was drinking. XD I have no idea what the hell I'm even going to do when I get on. Probably stand around and look dapper I guess. Tarutaru, you know. Edit: I sorta missed this place.. .-. I doubt my hand tastes good... Asura.Bartimaeus said: » She's going to somehow see this. Don't give her any ideas. She's doing ok. Going to graduate school and in an internship. We moved in together here in Montana. Ewww Montana.
