[Kit-Ginevra]

Shame... as chat up lines go...
'Can I roll your girl cat with my lint roller?' is definitely different...

[morgana]

Original Trek and Original Trilogy Star Wars, here.

I can claim Trekkie and Star Wars, but not Whovian.

(And why does the spell checker recognize "Trekkie" and not "Whovian"?

As for the comment about something British, my card definitely has British inspiration.

Same here ... Trekkie and SW. I think the only reason I can't claim to be a Whovian is because I haven't had a television in decades and last watched it when this guy played the good Doctor. I remember really liking it at the time, though.

[tigger222]

Trekkie and Star Wars for me as well.

[Ironclad Alibi]

Original Trek and Original Trilogy Star Wars, here.

But have you seen the inspiration for them, The Forbidden Planet?

[telecom_goddess]

"Small and British"... hmm. How big are you, again?

I did send you a PM, hope it makes you chuckle.

Along similar lines, though, I'd love to know whether everyone is a Trekkie, Whovian, or Star Wars fan.

Trek fan here!!

[KuariKaydrith]

Seeing as we've gone for quality rather than quantity this year :P all you critters over the pond,I shall be able to include something small and British if you would like-PM me to let me know what you want.Afraid I can't include haggises,models of Stonehenge,Coronation Street or a pearly queen....

Well, I wouldn't say no to Tom Burke showing up on my doorstep! But he's not exactly small LOL

[morgana]

But have you seen the inspiration for them, The Forbidden Planet?

Only about 85 times. I have both the DVD and the book, and am writing an update.

Also, did you know that the inspiration for THAT was by Shakespeare?

OK, OK, out of those three, I lean most strongly towards Star Wars. All four of 'em.

*random voice* But aren't there like sev-

*me* LALALALAALA LIGHTSABER NOISES I HEAR NOTHING!

(machete/moviebob order ftw)

(And why does the spell checker recognize "Trekkie" and not "Whovian"?

I would argue that the former has been in common parlance far longer...Even though most would make the distinction betweena TrekKIE and a TrekKER, these days

Um, sure...

Original Trek and Original Trilogy Star Wars, here.

Drat, I should have specified ... same here: originals of both series. Especially the original SW. And original ST in spite of Shatner's over-emoting.

[morgana]

Shatner's over-emoting.

He wasn't too bad yet when that was filmed; he got much worse over time.

[Pixelated]

He wasn't too bad yet when that was filmed; he got much worse over time.

Ugh, seriously?? I watched some of the original episodes a few decades later and thought he was pretty bad even then. Although by then I'd heard so much about his over-the-top acting that maybe I was just seeing what I expected to see ...
