I had forgotten about Veruca. That's right. Nina seems to fall into the category of "victim this bad thing happened to" which is less metaphorically interesting to me. (This is where I once again bemoan that I can't reference Buffy to Todd, as he hasn't seen it. It
is particularly frustrating as the show in question is so clearly from a post-Buffy Universe, and a lot of my ability to feel the rhythm of the plots and have a good idea of where they're going comes from
that.)
I have all these thoughts on views of the feminine Id and cultural takes on sexuality vs. violence as primal urges that quickly turn into babble.
Now I'm really curious to know which show you are talking about DebetEsse. I'd be happy to have that discussion!
Bonny,
Being Human. Season 2 starts shortly, so we're reviewing Season 1.
Debet, do you want to take the conversation over to Boxed Set where you can have it without spoiler font?
FTR, I think the male werewolf in that story is just as much a victim--in fact, incredibly victimy, more than Oz or Veruca ever was. At least to start out.
Yeah, if we're going to get specific, that is the place for it.
Nina seems to fall into the category of "victim this bad thing happened to" which is less metaphorically interesting to me.
Well, generally speaking, the majority of werewolves fit that description, whether it be a curse or a bite. Whether the victim embraces the condition or not after the fact, I don't think I've ever seen a character seek to become a werewolf (where there are definite examples of that when it comes to vampires).
There's not going to be a lot of Hogwarts in the last two movies.
Though it would be nice if they filled in some of the stuff with Neville and Ginny during that year.
Right, but then after she's bitten, it--apart perhaps from Smile Time--is as closely related to diabetes or some medical condition you have to manage as anything spiritual or having to do with her personality.
Oooh, trailer.
