An Amazing Discovery

So my dearest [livejournal.com profile] mikazuki and I were talking last night, and we got onto old shows we used to watch and how so many of them are coming to DVD. Count Duckula is on DVD, Captain N is coming to DVD, and Cori informed me of something I did not know and probably never would have found out on my own.

The Legend of Zelda 80s Cartoon is on DVD! All 13 episodes, bonus features, all of it in a lovely 3 DVD set. It is 20 bucks brand new from Amazon. I wantsss it, precioussss! I have all the episodes burned onto CDs, but they're crappy downloads with fuzzy quality and barely audible audio. But I cling to them, because this was my favorite show of all time. Princess Zelda was my first girl!crush ever. I wanted to grow up and be Link. And I never thought it would come to DVD, since it was just a short feature every Friday on the Super Mario Brothers Show. Which is also on DVD. But separately. LoZ gets its own DVD set!

Also, Animaniacs are coming to DVD. Get the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon out, and I will be content.

Who needs television anymore?

(And dude, if Zelda can come to DVD, Roar can come to DVD. Seriously.)

Yay!

And then there was the 'Zelda, you swing a sword like a girl!' 'I am a girl!' *Link leers at Zelda's cleavage* 'Yeah, I noticed.' Ah, good times, good times.

Oh, you'd be surprised. ;) Leonardo was the coolest turtle ever. Yeah, our tastes don't match up very often. Mmmm, Ivanova. Now I want to go look for Ivanova/Lyta fic, because that would be the hottest thing ever. Or maybe Ivanova/Talia/Lyta.... excuse me, I have to go to my happy place.

I AM AMAZON! I'm also in a very, very strange mood today.

...So that's where that line came from! That one's cropped up in my head a couple of times, and I always wondered where the hell it was coming from. Huh. Guess I do remember more of it than I thought.

Don't tempt me. I was attacked by a Talia/Ivanova unrequited bunny last night after finishing the season. My first B5 bunny. But I am not going to write fic (or read it!!!) until I've seen enough that I won't have to worry about being horribly wrong/spoiled about things. *Determined* ...I need an Ivanova icon, though. I kept trying to cap the damned "boom" scene, but it just doesn't want to work.

*Laughs* And that's different than usual because...? ;)

Yes! That's where that's from. :D

Interesting. Where are you in the series, again? Babylon 5 was one of the first fandoms I ever wrote fic for. You haven't met the character I'd write most about yet. Ah, getting caps can be a pain. I know there's tons of websites with B5 screencaps, Ivanova especially.

I don't know, I'm just... bouncy. And I wrote more porn!

I just finished season 1, but I have residual bits-and-pieces spoilers on little things about the rest of the series. I already knew about Delenn's transformation, for example, and [livejournal.com profile] miss_arel has told me a little about Marcus, and about Sinclair leaving and being replaced next season with Sheridan.

On the subject of the caps... I'm sure they're out there, I've just been going through hell trying to find good sites for them. Not to mention sites that keep things in order - I don't want to stumble onto anything I shouldn't be seeing yet!

Lol. Well, bouncy is good. And yay!

[identity profile] theladyfeylene.livejournal.com 2006-05-18 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, and I know I've said more than enough about it to you to spoil you for some things. Which is a shame, but it doesn't seem to be decreasing your enjoyment of the series any. :D

There's one awesome site that has caps of all the ladies, and it's all organized by seasons. Lemme see if I can dig it up for you. It's where I got the cap for my Susan/Talia icon.

Indeed! And it's raining and I have work tomorrow. Yay porn! Mmmm, delicious porn.

Fortunately, my memory often sucks when it comes to things I don't know about, so I don't seem to have suffered any severe damage from what you've said. I spoiled myself worse by memories of articles in the old sci-fi magazines that I read, since I'd read the articles on stuff I hadn't watched after finishing the ones on stuff I had. It leads to funny stuff, though, since I spent the first several episodes misinterpreting the whole Sinclair and Delenn thing through the vague memory of references to Sheridan and Delenn. I still say it's up to interpretation whether her deal with him has overtones - I think Delenn's just obsessed with human men, myself. ;)

Awesome! Yes, if you could find the link to that it'd be fabulous. I've been skimming through the few archives I've found with my eyes half-closed, trying not to see anything 'bad.'

That's good that it's raining down there - it's been sunny and hot up here, but it might be starting to cloud up again a little, judging by today.
