amedia: (TiVo)
Thanks so much to everyone for their input! I did go ahead and revamp the website, although of course it can still be revised if anyone raises a new issue I hadn't thought of. If folks would go look at it and give me their opinion, I'd be everlastingly grateful.

I now have three categories:

Slash
Gen, emphasis on Cain-Glitch friendship, can be read as slashy or not
Gen, other

I put "Au Revoir" (the Lav/Ahamo piece) under Gen, and "Complications" (Cain and Glitch as either an old married couple or old friends) under "Gen, Cain-Glitch."

I also added word counts, just because I like to know how much I'm getting into when I start reading a piece.

We watched Starship Troopers 3 just before the hurricane, and When Nietzsche Wept partly before and partly after. (We actually unlocked a classroom and watched it using the projector, since we had no power at home.)

I can say two good things about Starship Troopers 3: it had Jolene Blalock, whom I enjoy watching, and it didn't suck nearly as bad as Starship Troopers 2. #2 was execrable; #3 was just crappy.

When Nietzsche Wept was excellent; it had a good handle on Nietzsche's philosophy and I was surprised to realize that Nietzsche was played by Armand Assante, who I thought was just a mini-series hunk. He was very, very good, and so was Ben Cross, who played Dr. Josef Breuer, an historical character who was a friend of Sigmund Freud and a contemporary of Nietzsche. It's based on a novel that imagines that Breuer treated Nietzsche with a kind of primitive psychotherapy, and was deeply affected by the process. I found the movie genuinely engaging and touching.
