OMG

PINKY SWEAR UPDATED

Chapter 19

LET'S TALK!

Sorry for the weird formatting here (normally I would put the video at the top) but the video was being uncooperative so I'm writing this sort of backwards. Point of this post is the premiere of the Safe & Sound music video by Taylor Swift for The Hunger Games companion album. Yes, companion album not soundtrack. Here's the track listing:

1. Safe & Sound - Taylor Swift (feat. The Civil Wars)
2. Eyes Wide Open - Taylor Swift
3. Abraham's Daughter - Arcade Fire
4. The Ruler & The Killer - Kid Cudi
5. Run Daddy Run - Miranda Lambert (feat. The Pistol Annies)
6. Kingdom Come - The Civil Wars
7. One Engine - The Decemberists (this song is available on iTunes if you pre-order the album)
8. Take The Heartland - Glen Hansard
9. Lover Is Childlike - The Low Anthem
10. Dark Days - Punch Brothers
11. Tomorrow Will Be Kinder - The Secret Sisters
12. Just A Game - Birdy
13. Oh Come & Sing - Ella Mae Bowen
14. Rules - Jayme Dee
15. Reaping Day - Carolina Chocolate Drops
16. Give Me Something I'll Remember - Neko Case

So it's a little unusual in that none of the songs are actually going to be in the movie. Rather the songs are all inspired by the book/movie. I think it looks really good. And I LOVE Taylor's song/video which is funny because normally...I'm not such a fan of hers. In fact, I've never liked anything of hers.

On a silly aside I think she looks really good without make-up. Less squinty. ;)

Anyway, what do you guys think?

Now that Breaking Dawn has been released tumblr has been inunduated with gifs/photosets from the movie and I've seen a lot of the admittedly sweet Jacob/Bella dance moment and it got me thinking. Are there any Jacob/Bella shippers/fans around and how do you feel about the saga? I've seen people calling it the Twifail Saga for going for Edward/Bella and not Jacob/Bella but I think here in ADF it's safe to say it's more an Edward/Bella appreciation kind of place. Or, does it even matter? 

Would you rather this had been the real deal:

Personally, I appreciate the friendship and canon elements of the ship but I don't think I could see it it a possible "endgame." Thoughts? This is my first campfire so sorry to suck.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter trailer.

Someone asked permission to translate one of my stories into Russian for a Twilight fansite.

Does anyone have experience with this?  Pros/Cons

I'm skeptical about this. (Maybe I shouldn't be?) While this story is about 10% Twilight, it's 90% original, so it means a huge amount to me.

Should I be skeptical? Share your thoughts please and thank you. :)

And here's a rec. I'm sure you've seen it here already, but it's the only story I'm reading right now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JENNYFLY.

BESTOW UPON HER MONTGOMERY CLIFT AND ROBERT PATTINSON WITH HAIR ONLY, PLEASE.

ALSO, CATS AND BATMAN.

For Jennifer on her birthday...we all know her writing is stunning and she set the bar entirely too high here in fic land. We know she is adorably cranky and we know she is always, always fair and level headed. She is hard working and loyal like crazy.

But did you know she's funny?

And she's actually one of the sweetest, kind-hearted people I've ever known?

Happy Bleeping Birthday to one of the most supportive, endearing, gracious, intelligent, strongest and best friends I've ever had.

I am blessed to know you, and know you well.

APPROVED BY JANDCO. AND DOUBLE APPROVED BECAUSE WE'RE SO PROUD OF OUR OWN LJSUMMERS.

Water Landing updated last night and it was cute and hilarious and there were sweet moments and vulnerable ones and possible revelations and regular revelations whose possibilities weren't questioned. Come inside and discuss its awesomeness with me to prove how cool you are that you read this.

Here are some non-spoilery discussion questions to get you going (which you probably won't need and are not obligated to answer):

What do you think of how Edward acts toward his peers and family compared to how he acts around Bella?

Similarly, what do you think about how Bella acts toward her peers compared to how she acts around Edward?

Did your thoughts/opinions of Bella change in this chapter?

How much did you wanna marry the ending?

Join me, friends.

Does anyone know if there is going to be a season 2 of "Terra Nova"?

Does anyone else even watch this?

Okay, I need people to talk to about this. Seriously. Something's going on and I have no idea what!

Chapter 12: Life Goes On

Thoughts?

I don't really have much to say; I just wanted to start a campfire for discussion.

Anyone have any clue as to what is happening with FFnet? 1st it was down from late Thurs til Friday evening. Now you can't log in again.

I tried looking everywhere on the site to find some kind of note to its users, but found nothing. I did come accross the TOS and laughed when I realized that if they really followed it that they would have to remove about 80% of the stories on there. Posting song lyrics and using published poetry is a no no.  Oh, My. Aaaaaanyway...what the hell is going on with it? Any speculation?

My guesses from left field:

1. They got a cease and desist order from a few major publishing houses and are trying to figure out what to do.

2. They switched servers to one that was cheaper...(ya get what ya pay for kinda thing)

3. They like %&($ing with us.

I am computer challenged.

I know enough, but there is so much that I am unaware of.

I hear about people watching movies online all the time and I want to be able to do this as well.

We have a Netflix account, but they suck. HULU hasn't really worked out for me either.

Tonight, for example, I am on a Fassbender kick. I want to watch the Jane Eyre movie. 

Couldn't really find it on Youtube; Netflix doesn't have it online, of course.

Hulu only has a preview.

I have Xfinity, but I do not subscribe to the channel that has it available.

I want to watch it! and I really want to watch, Shame.

What do you guys use? What is safe? I am scared of viruses and I do not want to deal with a lot of ads either.

I want free, easy, and uncomplicated.

Can you hook a girl up?

ETA: If you can't help me, feel free to post yummy Fassbender pictures. ugh.

THERE IS NO FASSBENDER TAG!! For shame!
