selenakPoor Peter Parker. It seems to be his fate to be retconned in any universe. I actually have no passionate feelings about the Spider-man movies, though I'm mildly fond of them, and yes, the reboot approach did the Batman movies a world of good, but all this talk about "dark" and "gritty" is off-putting in this particular context. Because if there's anyone less like Bruce Wayne than Peter Parker, I can't imagine. Ditto Batman and Spider-man.
In other news, I'm continuing to enjoy The Good Wife and love Alicia, Kalinda (can't wait to see what her endgame with most recent developments is), Cary et al more than ever... except for Will. My not getting the appeal until it was explained to me the actor was popular in another role has now turned into solid dislike every time he shows up on screen. Which he thankfully isn't often enough to impact on my viewing pleasure.

Arthur and Oscar: very amusing poem about Arthur Conan Doyle and Oscar Wilde.
Lord of the Rings:
Five things Sam believes about Frodo that (Rosie knows) aren't true: lovely portrayal of all three hobbits in this short story, set post Ring Quest and pre Last Haven.
Twin Peaks:
Damaged Goods: which is a great Albert Rosenfield pov, on strengths, weaknesses and Dale Cooper.
