    @Bootknife-Jackson: You took the words right out of my mouth! I keep thinking: what would these look like if they didn't pseudocolour them, pre-black and white IR and UV imaging? #space

    Of course the Milky Way is doomed... Everything's doomed, eventually.

    I have to say, a rare miss for the lovely Ms. Day in my humble opinion. It feels like the humor in the rushed production scenario was the part that was actually rushed. #feliciaday

    @schrodingers-katana: I do not concur. Felicia comes across as her usual charming, relaxed self. The other "actors"? Not so much. #feliciaday

    @closeencounter: Perhaps I should have worded it better. Though she did an adequate job, the whole thing just fell flat compared to her typical work. #feliciaday

    I didn't like it.

    Maybe you have to be a Whedonite... #feliciaday

    @twophrasebark: Nope. Although no one seems to need to add the word "rabid" or "fanatical" before describing me as a Whedonite (so maybe I don't even count as one?) I love a large amount of his work though and do tend to love the actors lucky enough to get cast well in his work.

    Felicia is cute, o.k. She is smart enough to know that she makes money by playing up her nerd-girl image. She's, in fact, SO smart that she knows that she has reached the kind of comfort zone that many, way bigger actors and actresses are in that allows her to just coast through any piece of garbage so long as it's "Felicia Day fan-approved garbage"

    I don't want to curse about the poor girl because I have seen her be so lovable when she has a director really kicking her ass to act her way out of that wet paper bag. Sadly, most people are just content that someone sprayed water on Felicia Day and she gets to just hang out there for as long as she likes.

    Also, what was with the graphics gun? They could have just been sitting next to a computer to call up the images. Someone wasted their budget on CG, biiiig time.

    *sigh* sorry for going on and on #feliciaday

    I'm confused. Did you like the video? Do you think people like this just because it's Felicia Day? #feliciaday
