Continued from last part... Posted by Spring - Gotta pick The Beach. Those Caves wig me out. That's a tough choice between torture scenarios. The difference between sustained hopelessness and helplessness and hopelessness broken up by pain and pleasure. I guess I'd pick the latter. The better way to be in "Lost". In a state of denial, or one of faith? Most heart-wrenching; Oz discovering Willow with Xander, or Willow with Tara? LOST: Faith is better than denial - in fact just about anything you can name is better than denial. Heart-wrenching: I gotta go with Oz discovering Willow and Xander because that was a true betrayal. By Willow, and by Xander. Whereas, when Oz learned about Tara, he was heartbroken, but he hadn't been truly betrayed by Willow (and certainly not by Tara.) Who made a cuter couple? Giles & Olivia OR Giles & Joyce? |

Hard to say. Giles and Olivia seemed well-suited, but I liked Giles and Joyce's reaction to Buffy's telepathic discovery of their juvenile tryst during Band Candy. I guess I have to go with Giles and Olivia because they were together as adults not under a spell. If they had Giles with Joyce as adults, I think I would have liked that too. |

Most confusing character Jack in Alias or Locke in Lost? |

Better Star Wars tidbit on Buffy: Star Wars theme on the Troika's van or Spike threatening to hurt the Boba Fet toy. Ohhh, the Boba Fett (It's spelled with two T's, dear) most certainly. I HAVE that figure, by the way. You had to send in, I believe, 8 proofs of purchase from the 12 original Star Wars action figures and they sent you this Boba Fett guy... of which no one hade ever heard! Recall, this was after Star Wars but before Empire Strike Back. He was a really cool figure (Tho' I was dissappointed his rocket pack didn't shoot the rocket like the "ad" demonstrated it would. Musta been worried over eye put-outage even back in the late 70's) and to this day, Mr. Fett, who was at best a bit player in the actual films, is one of the most popular in teh entire SW universe, especially among the geeks real fans. My theory is that this special action figure, with no history, made for wonderful fantasy (with the kiddies like me) as they created their own mental "Furthering adventures of Han Solo...errr sorry.. yeah.. Luke Skywalker the simpering, whiny, do gooder." And now... let's look at LOST. A rumor has it (only rumor, nothing more!) that one of the characters of LOST will die at the end of the season. That being the case, which would you rather see croak? Boone? or Jin? Vlad |

That being the case, which would you rather see croak? Boone? or Jin? Vlad Oh, I'm so sorry, Mr. Bloody, sir. Of course, it's Boba Fett with two 't's'. He was a fav of my son's and I think he has that action figure in his collection, too. Boba Fett's story was the one that interested me most in Ep II. Ok. Since no one else bit, I'll go again. Who would I rather see croak if the rumors are true - Boone or Jin, huh? I gotta say Jin. Boone was used and abused by lurve and I felt kinda sorry for him - as young as he is. Jin took a dicey deal with Sun's father and I don't like the way he treats Sun, even though I know it's probably because of his culture and I should be more tolerant. If it's a choice between Jin or Michael, who would you rather see croak? |

Claire's baby - boy or girl? |

Much more survival knowledge and stuff, plus - I think he's nicer. Sawyer is the fun bad boy to swoon over, from a distance, but he's got mega issues still and is too unstable. In "reality" Sayid is now the better person to have around. (While still being very swoon worthy. See "Bride and Prejudice" - mmmmm, singing/dancing/romancing Naveed . . . .) More likely to have brought the plane down. Hurley and his evil lottery numbers of unlucky-ness or powerful mutant spawn Walt? Alternate BtVS quandry: Blond Anya or notBlond Anya? |

Dark hair is too jarring next to her skin. Golden blonde Buffy (season 6) or ash blonde Buffy (season 3) |

Buffy season 6 is all mixed up in my mind with the haircut and the wig. Which superpower would you like to have - the ability to orb (a la Paige or Leo in Charmed) or the ability to open a portal to another dimension (as in Fred, Wesley or anyone else who opened portals)? |

Diane answered the Anya hair quandry, so I'll answer the Lost question. I think Walt has more power than those numbers Hurley used. Scarier event. Claire's baby's birth or the raft launch? |

Doin' two at once!   I'll go with Buffy season 3. Buffy season 6 is all mixed up in my mind with the haircut and the wig. Which superpower would you like to have - the ability to orb (a la Paige or Leo in Charmed) or the ability to open a portal to another dimension (as in Fred, Wesley or anyone else who opened portals)? AND Diane answered the Anya hair quandry, so I'll answer the Lost question. I think Walt has more power than those numbers Hurley used. Scarier event. Claire's baby's birth or the raft launch? First, I'd pick portals (as long as I could always get back easily!). I've always LOVED the idea of all sorts of alternate dimensions, etc. So would love to pop in and out of them. Second, hmmmmmm. Tough one. Baby is potentially scarier in the long run (mutant spawn! mutant spawn!). But raft has really really icky possibilities right now (crash on rocks, die of thirst, island strikes back to stop them). Hmmmmm. I'm gonna stick with mutant spawn Claire's baby. Ok - now for a threeway choice between three. Who do you dance with? Wesley. Angel. Xander. |

Lets see whose parent would you go on a time traveling mission with - Wesley's father, Buffy's father, or Angel's father? |
