Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] moderate-mod.livejournal.com 2010-08-13 02:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I have two Hsu ones:

1. Five blondes that even Hsu wouldn't shag.

2. Five fandom characters that Hsu would happily kill.

1. Margaret Thatcher
Hillary Clinton
Paris Hilton
Barbara Walters
Marie Antoinette

2. James Horton (Higlander) -- oh, wait, he already did that! *g*
Peter Petrelli (Heroes) -- overpowered do-gooder
The Winchesters (Supernatural) -- they kill supernatural beasts, who knows where they'll stop.
King Silas Benjamin (Kings) -- he gave absolute rulers a bad name.
Batman -- any crime-fighting superhero really, but he'd really like to get his hands on Batman's toys too!

*dies* Hsu in the Batcave with Alfred?

*rolls on the floor*

Yes, *ggg* I was going to word it differently, but thought nahhh.

Re: Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] moderate-mod.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Alfred as Hsu's butler would be priceless. Then...to have him interact with Andy?

*laughing* Yeah...that would be awesome.

Re: Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh god, now you've got me thinking of Alfred (esp. Michael Caine's) being regen'd into Boukun. LOL!!

Re: Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] moderate-mod.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I can just see Hsu handing him his bloody sword as he walks in, and Alfred saying "Very good, Sir".

*snicker*

Re: Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
He would be a perfect foil for Hsu's moods!

Why didn't we think of this before! LOL

Re: Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] moderate-mod.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
*facepalm* Oh dear GOD...Just having him call Danny "Master Daniel" and how he would respond to Roma, and everything?

It's brilliant. Just. Fucking. Brilliant.

You know who could play him so perfectly? Doreene. Seriously...she would rock it. Or Dia, too. But, omg...Alfred would be awesome in Boukun.

BTW? I think Ramsay should become the chef at the Palace. *snerk*

Re: Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-17 07:05 am (UTC)(link)
I would love to see him and Roma going head to head...seeing how completely unflappable he is. LOL

Hehehe...Danny says if anyone is poaching Ramsay from Tabar, it's ON! *cracks up*

Re: Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] moderate-mod.livejournal.com 2010-08-17 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
He's so polite and so calm, with just a tinge of mocking when people are ridiculous. I can just imagine how he would be. LOL!

He and Hsu would come to blows...Ha!

Re: Evol Manda is Evol

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-17 03:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, he's just this side of sarcastic with that dry humour...just perfect!

Danny says Hsu Jamie Oliver would be much better for Boukun. *ggg*

Cody says Bobby Flay.

*drum shot*

Thank you, thank you...she'll be here all week!

Top five actors/actresses who should be bigger stars.

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 03:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Valentine Pelka -- He is an excellent actor, both on screen and on stage, a jobbing actor, but given how convincingly he's portrayed sociopaths to sweet teddy bears, I think it's a shame he's never become bigger, even just in the UK.

Sean Bean -- Yes, he's a pretty big name, but he's always almost, but not quite cracked the US market. The closest was with LOTR, but most of his roles since then have been either as the bad guy, or small British productions. He plays a great villain but he does a very good hero as well.

Keeley Hawes -- She's fairly recognizable in the UK after being in Spooks/MI-5 and a few other things, but I think she has the talent to be even more successful worldwide.

Hrithik Roshan -- Okay, so he's one of the top 5 Bollywood actors, so he is pretty huge star-wise, but I would love to see him in a huge Hollywood blockbuster, so everyone could enjoy his gorgeousness. *g*

Lenora Crichlow -- She's still young, so has a lot of opportunity to make it really big, and I hope she does. She's incredibly pretty and natural with it, and has great screen presence and talent.

Yes, I do seem to pay more attention to non-US actors...*g*

[identity profile] dark-wesley.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 04:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Cool answers.

I love Sean Bean, and I'm really excited to see him in Game of Thrones on HBO.

And Roshan is definitely on my list of "gotta use 'em for a PB someday" people. *L*

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 04:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I've been a Sean fan ever since he first appeared as Sharpe. I'll have to keep an eye out for that...it may come on over here. (They've just started showing some HBO shows).

He is just so multi-talented...and I could watch him dance for forever! *g*

[identity profile] dark-wesley.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Why hope when you have the Internet? *L*

He dances, too? Neato.

I'm not one to download, even if I had a fast connection. :(

Oh, just a bit! A couple of songs from Dhoom 2 (which did a lot to inspire Party Prince Daniel *g*) with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Such fun songs:

Dhoom Machale (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uIz1DFNJnY)

Dil Laga Na (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3vCJWXoLmg&feature=related)

Fair enough :)

Ahh, I'll have to check them out at home.

Top 5 pet peeves

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
1. Right now my biggest pet peeve is the post office on base and how friggin' slow their (non)customer service is.

2. The system they now have on base for purchasing gas...one of those "easier and more convenient than ever" things that definitely is the opposite.

3. People at the ATM who seem to take forever in getting cash out, when it takes me 30 seconds tops.

4. The boarding "system" they have in place at Ryanair...funnelling cattle into a slaughterhouse is more pleasant an experience.

5. The German concept of queueing...which is pretty much non-existent.

And those are just the ones that leapt to mind first...I'm getting impatient and crotchety in my old age.

Five favorite moments in fandom.

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
1. Blake's 7 "Orbit"...where Avon shows how far he'll go to survive and Michael Keating as Vila shows what a subtle actor he is. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOyNWhhxrq0&feature=related)

2. Blake's 7 "Blake"...the best final episode ever. All of the heroes die...probably. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9QNHngD8A0&feature=related)

3. Robin of Sherwood "The Greatest Enemy"...Nasir single-handedly taking out a dozen Normans. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCv3DFoR1RY)

4. Highlander: The Series "Revelation 6:8" The 'fried chicken scene'...I love the interaction between Kronos and Methos. It really shows the dynamic between the two, and Kronos outsmarts him.

5. Highlander: The Series "Band of Brothers" The introduction of Darius. I'd been disappointed with the series up to then, and after Darius...I knew they'd hit on something very special. (And I think I've mentioned that once or twice before *g*)

[identity profile] moderate-mod.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 06:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, the fried chicken scene always makes me think of The Blues Brothers, when they order four fried chickens and a Coke. I have no idea why...it's weird.

Also, I always try to imagine Carrie Fisher's character from Blues Brothers as a scorned one night stand for Hsu, trying to kill him. I also have a comedy thought in my head of Elle Woods from Legally Blonde showing up as a lawyer assisting Hsu's legal council. Just how she talks? But with that gorgeous blonde hair and that admissions essay video? *snicker* I know, I'm weird.

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-17 07:08 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, Hsu would be so very torn on Elle...definitely beddable, but how long he could tolerate the rest of her....I just don't know. *ggg* She would be a conundrum for him. :D

[identity profile] moderate-mod.livejournal.com 2010-08-17 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
*laughing* I love when Hsu has conundrums.

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-17 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
So do I!!

[identity profile] diamond9697.livejournal.com 2010-08-16 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh, I had the same response with regards to HL until Darius showed up, so I know exactly what you mean.

[identity profile] simplyjaye.livejournal.com 2010-08-17 07:10 am (UTC)(link)
I knew you'd understand. :D
