That was unsatisfactory
Oct. 7th, 2011 01:36 pmI watched a movie once with a friend, and afterwards, she was quiet for a bit and then said, "That was unsatisfactory." I laughed my ass off -- not unsatisfying, but unsatisfactory. Made the whole thing so much more precise. So I've used that for years when I'm unhappy with something -- and last night's Community was very unsatisfactory for me, as was the Big Bang Theory. They both had great moments at the beginning but I wasn't terribly happy with the main storylines.
Especially Community -- that was squirm-inducing, for me, and I really just hated everyone in the study group for that last bit. I don't like feeling that way about characters I love. They are going to have to redeem themselves somehow for that. The one thing I truly loved, and that I screamed with laughter about: Michael K. Williams, who should from now on be in everything ever filmed, lamenting the complexity of Legos these days, with the music from Field of Dreams playing behind it. That was such brilliance I can't even speak of it.
(And it was also especially funny to me because just a few weeks ago, I was asking the same thing of![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
belmanoir -- I don't understand Legos where everything's made for you. When I was a kid, you had to make your own stuff with blocks, they didn't come pre-configured for you. I don't get it!)
Right now, I'm at a place with BBT where I want it to be about the ladies. I love Amy Farah Fowler so much, and Bernadette just rocks my world, and Penny with them is just... she's so much more wonderful when she's with her GFFs. They need to move in together, ditch the boys, and wait for a hot guy to move in across the hall.
