Venice

[cabenson]

Who watched and what did you think? Tell me, tell me, tell me true!

My thoughts: It was just a little more than I expected. I had to remind myself that it was a webisode so the storyline is a bit more compact, but it looked good. Sound was an issue in the first Ani/Gina scene. The exterior scenes, along with opening titles were spectacular! And I really enjoyed the music.

CC and JL, as usual, brought it. And I am SUCH an angst whore, so I was immediately drawn into the Ani/Gina story. And I actually liked GG as Owen...he seemed real, as compared to the acting he does on DOOL. I thought the writing and all of the acting were, how to put this...honest. Real words from real people. Intersting to see where it goes.

I admit I am intrigued and will suscribe. And this may be an unpopular opinion, but so I have to buy one less dimebag bottle of wine per season- I can't believe peeps are complaining about a subscription fee (that will be used to fund Season 2, correct?) when it had been proposed from the very beginning. So they waited til the last minute to spring it... whatevs. That is how they have done everything. It takes money to make the pretty, people. Peeps need to quit acting like the makers of Venice, or ANY show for that matter, owe the fanbase ANYTHING. Except for that Cabot/Benson makeout session that I am STILL waiting for, Ironbone!

I keep hearing "This should make all the Otalia Fans happy", but not me. Not cause I didn't enjoy seeing CC/JL making out, but cause I immediately saw them as Gina and Ani. This is a good thing in my book, cause after finishing the Manifesto, I am ready to say goodbye to Otalia and move on...to my fandom retirement. Or at least a lengthy vacation.
