After waking up and realizing my uterus was throughly going to kick my white arse today, I decide to watch my new Buffy S6 DVDs and do a DVD review. Well, here we go!
Disc One:
Bargaining Part 1 and 2:
1. Noxon and Fury are dumbasses. If I had to hear one more comment about Emma Caulfield's hair resembling Buffy or about Joss Whedon's BIG prowess, I was going to die. Literally... 'cause I would have killed myself.
2. The whole thing about Dawn being sexy and Spike shouldn't be sitting so close to her almost made me vomit.
3. Noxon has an unhealthy bondage fetish... and an unhealthy attraction to Michelle Trachtenburg.
4. There's too much dead air, and I don't mean the Fury/Noxon prattling. Too much space between comments.
5. Numbered shirt wars! I remembered I noticed the numbered shirts when this episode first aired, 'cause I'm a freak for the costumes. I gotta say that I never thought it had a deeper meaning.
6. Glad that they finally admit their damn deus ex machina.
7. Couldnt' even finishing watching all of Bargaining Part 1... More to come later if I can stomach it.
Disc 2:
Once More With Feeling:
1. Joss Whedon says funny things. I like most of his comments, makes me almost forget how much of a pompous jerk he can be.
2. Yes, dirty jokes in love songs are good.
3. I'm really happy that Joss mentioned the choppy editing during Rest in Peace (the part after the bridge where Spike's throwing chairs around), and how Spike's facial morph just didn't seem to work.
Tabula Rasa:
1. The picture quality is superb on these DVDs. When I was watching this ep I shouted, "Spike's tie has a pattern on it! I didn't know that!" Yeah, that's how crappy and grainy UPN is. I've been noting all these patterns and little background stuff that I could never seen before because the picture quality was too dark. Yeah for being able to see!
Disc 3:
The Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Panel:
1. James Marsters and Nick Brendan are adorable... and I love them.
2. The interviewer woman seemed too nervous. She grated on me after a few minutes.
3. "Prove it, Marti!" Heh.
4. James Marsters mumbling, "I'm not crying" and "Drunk" was very cute.
5. Joss: "Dullness... We haven't explored it, but I think it's cool."
I love you, Joss, you pretencious bastard. You have explored dullness It's called Riley!
6. Gosh, James talking reminds me of myself in my high school English class. I had something really important and intelligent to say, but it would come out all wrong and I'd just ramble eventually getting to a point where I wasn't even talking about what we were discussing anymore. He's such a dork.
7. Allie is so cute. "Why was I all vieny?" Hah.
8. "Oops." Hehe. I heart Joss!
9. When is the government going to realize that Nick Brendan is going to stop the war in Iraq!? Talk to that young man, Mr. Bush! He's gonna solve all your problems!
And that's it... for now. If you're all good little boys and girls, I'll write the rest. It's just pretty much special features at first, but I'll go into the picture and sound quality later.
