Why did I look at that stupid Thomas Dekker spoiler video?

[roxybisquaint]

I can't decide who I hate more right now: Thomas Dekker, Josh Friedman or myself. Augh. Why would they let out so much that truly spoils the season? I'm more concerned about that than the actual spoilers themselves. It's fucked up.

Yeah. Now I feel like I have that 'other shoe waiting to drop' dread/anticipation. Basically, what I felt all Friday watching BSG.

[roxybisquaint.livejournal.com]

Yeah me too. I'm formulating theory, though. I'll post at SCS in a bit. Now that I've had a chance to digest, I don't think there's any way any of this is as clear as it sounds or it would be ridiculous to let it all out.

okay, dammit. Now I can't not know. Can someone give me a link?

You sure you want to do this? There's one straight up spoiler about a specific character. One "well I kind of figured that" spoiler. And one major spoiler that is meant to make you guess at what happens to who (and it's causing extensive speculation filled turmoil on the boards at sarahconnorsociety.net (http://tsccsociety.proboards52.com/index.cgi?board=spoilers&action=display&thread=1212&page=1)).

But if you gotta know (like the rest of us), here's the link to the Thomas Dekker spoiler videos:

Dammit. It's down, but I found a transcript that I'm pretty sure was for the interview. If so, I'm very meh about it.

I realize that teh intarwebz and podcasts and interviews etc etc etc have really changed how scifi products (books, movies, TV shows) interact with their audiences, but DUDE. I am feeling so supremely dicked around by the SCC writers/producers/grips/craft services/STARS.

It's like everything is this stupid semantic wrangling. "Oh, Cromartie died, but we said the actor would die, so that's not really the death you're looking for .."

O
M
G

And the whole thing with "John < spoilish thing > and it happens now. Only not. Maybe." FU, Thomas. FU, Josh.

I'm sick of the blatant misdirection and red herrings and asshattery that isn't even happening ON THE SHOW, but in the META around the show. How many times do they think they can do this before the fans stop listening and/or CARING?

*seethes*

Apparently io9 has the videos (http://io9.com/5135132/doctor-whos-filming-and-you-are-there-plus-terminator-stars-tell-all) if you're still interested in seeing them. Just scroll down their page and you'll find them right above teh JJ Abrams video.

Hmm.

Okay, so the video may actually get points for being incredibly weird and kinda creepy. But I'm still very meh about the reveals. And again, with my previous rant about the semantic wranglings.

(and thank you for the link!)

LOL - How did I just now notice that you included craft services in who was dicking us around? Yeah those fuckers with their supposedly "hot macaroni and cheese", "delicious pastries" and "salad". They're not fooling me again!!!!

[indiefic.livejournal.com]

SCC craft services = the devil.

(And BWAH! on your perfect use of icon. HEE)

[cisaac.livejournal.com]

Are you sure you really want to see it?

http://community.livejournal.com/dekker_daily/161105.html

It's SUPER spoilery.

[roxybisquaint.livejournal.com]

So come on now, don't keep us in suspense! Did you watch it?

[indiefic.livejournal.com]

Um, I didn't mean to get all ranty.

Sorry.

MEEP.

[life-on-queen.livejournal.com]

It's all fun and games until Roxy sees the spoilers.

And you know who suffers? I suffer, that's who....

;)

[roxybisquaint.livejournal.com]

EVERYONE IS GONNA SUFFER NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zanpakto.livejournal.com]

I'm glad I didn't look at it now. Don't tell me!

[roxybisquaint.livejournal.com]

I won't, don't worry. They're big spoilers and not just specific to one episode. These apply to the whole season. I advise staying away from them.

[metroid13.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Dekker's a spoiler whore, but I personally blame Josh Friedman for authorizing it.

Not that I really mind. Aside from one of those aspects, I pretty much knew all of that was gonna happen, one way or the other.

[roxybisquaint.livejournal.com]

I bet Josh Friedman didn't really authorize all that. If he wanted to let all that out, I think he would have done it little by little in his podcast.
