Zin... your uncle and family are in my prayers tonight. ...hope they're alright...
Laur, the Klinger-in-a-dress-action figure? Is *seriously*, seriously frightening...*wondering *what* little boy would buy an action figure of a soldier in a pink dress*.... ^_~ (I personally find it highly amusing, but I know a lot of guys *wouldn't*...hehe, it was really funny today, after I mowed the lawn I collapsed on the couch, not planning on moving for awhile...and Matantis and Brian were watching "Dude, Where's My Car?"..which actually, wasn't *as* bad as I'd've thought, tho most of it *was* *terribly*, terribly lame..but yeah, there's this one bit, the two main guys (both stoner-losers) pull up to an intersection, there's this big guy with a gorgeous woman in the car next to them...the big guy revs up his engine, they rev up theirs...the guy makes out with his g/f...and the two guys make out with each other. o_O ..Matt'd left the room, it was just me and Brian watching, I started *laughing*, while *Brian* cowered and moaned about how *wrong* it was...and this is coming from *Brian*!!!! ..who just the other day, seeing Teraa and I watching Disney, commented on how twisted the movies *really* were...and then, too, there's the elephant, which I'll be kind about and *not* expand upon...-_-;;; ...maybe I've just read too much BMB. ~_^)
Daf just did a wonderful job obsessing over Labyrinth in her blog. ^_^ ..(in later entry, as well)...*sigh*...<3.....
Though Jareth's pants were *NOT* the first thing I noticed/fell in love with!!!!! ...*geez*, Daffy!!! ...even *I'm* not *that* bad--!..gahhhh....(not that I'm knockin' the pants at *all*..^_~)
But Laur?
Yeah.
You *are* in some trouble...
^~_~^
...I'm not even gonna refute what you said, I think Daf covered it well enough. ..you just..*gah*...maybe you just have to see it...goodness knows, the first time I saw it, I was all psyched, ready to merrily watch David Bowie die [*shudder*...but I claim ignorance - I only hated him cos Mom *liked* him..same went for Sting - enjoyed watching *him* die in the original Dune movie..tho now I think there's another scene I'd like more..^_~]...and yet when I saw Daffy later on, I yelled at her for not warning me that I'd feel sorry for and fall in love with the bad guy/Bowie! *G* ...so, if *I* could do a complete 180 on my opinion of the character---! ^_^
..and that line *is* irrestitable, put in context..... like Daffy said: Final confrontation--Jareth, clothed in white tatters, tired and worn (and beautiful) comes out once more, beseeching her with the last of his effort... "Just fear me, love me, do as I say, and I will be your slave!" How could she refuse that?! He looks so hurt... he's speaking to her, not as the Goblin King with his powers of voodoo or other magic, he's speaking her as a man, as Jareth, offering the one true thing he has--himself.
...*whimper*.....
