Hi Comedian.
Oh my goodness Niamh! What have you been giving poor Nightie? :eek: ;)
Wicked, Superman's sweet. Some people think that he's boring because he's flawless, but that's what makes him interesting! Dr. Manhatten and Superman are two of the MOST interesting comic book characters because they have no weaknesses. Not many other superheros can say that.Quote:

Crosby really is a crybaby though - did you see that weak slash on maltby's foot at the end of game one? If you're gonna be a tough player do it during the game. Malkin is outplaying crosby so bad its not even funny.
Cry babies.. :lol: too many footballers are crybabies these days... :nod:
WHAAAAT?!? :eek: Crosby's a playmaker! That's what he does! Malkin wouldn't be near what he is now without Crosby setting him up. Did you SEE that wicked pass in game four! Crosby might not get the most goals, but he sets them up like a master chess player. The penguins are good because of Crosby. The man is a hockey genius.Quote:

PENS WIN!!!! PENS WIIIN!!!!! TALBOT IS GOLD! Take THAT Hossa! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Edit: SANS CROSBY! They did it Crosbyless!!! What a game!
Idk if his is....allowed, but if it is, it'll prolly be locked down. sometimes all I want to do is chat about diff topics w/o interrupting a game, or changing the subject of the thread's title.
like if it's a thread on pets, i don't want to just change the subject the Shakespeare.
Does NE1 feel different?
Just make a new thread on what you want to talk about then.
I do it all the time :brow:
Beautifull i've merged your thread with the Live chat one. :) This thread is for chatting about anything and everything and changing the subject when ever you feel like it. :) no need to make new threads everything you want to discuss something different. :)
hurrah!
This is really interesting and it just does not necessitate any formalities, just write and post here that is all.
thank you lots niamh!!!idk if it was created or not...:DQuote:

I oftentimes think we can start a thread in which we can simply gossip and write what we like without following a particular topic or subject.
Here you can start any topic. And no need to be systematic and rules bound save FORUM RULES.
I was rooting for Brandon too. He totally blew me away!Quote:

^ I didn't know he auditioned for Season 4. I missed last season, saw Season 2 and 3. Season 5 was ok until I spotted him late in the contest. By then it was just down to 3 guys, and he really stands out. I was so sick of seeing Ewan's clown face and the same old-time dances in every solo, that's another reason I wanted him to win.
^ Brandon made it all the way to the final Vegas episode. It was down to him and Gev for the final Guys spot in the Top 20.
I thought that Nigel was being cruel to Evan by commenting on his face and eyes, things that Evan has no control over. I was glad to see that Ellen and Mia stood up for him. Evan also endured a lot of criticism on the finale, especially after the country jive routine. The judges declared him the weak link in the dance, but I thought that Kayla was no better. While I wasn't rooting for Evan to win, I did think that he contributed something refreshing to the show, as opposed to the flails, rolls, and agonized facial expressions that most contemporary dancers bring.
^ It's not the first time Nigel did that, he said that about Heidi, I think that's her name, in Season 2. I thought it's mean too. I agree the facial expressions are bit much, I bet the choreographers told them to do it, then the judges criticize them for doing it. But Ewan makes way too many clown faces when he does his old dances and that really turns me off.
I didn't know Canada has it's own version. Same choreographers? I think Mia Michaels is excellent.
^ Some of the American choreographers guest-choreograph on the Canadian version, but for the most part, the choreographers are Canadian.
I'm on the fence about Mia. She is an excellent choreographer ("Hometown Glory", "Gravity"), but she sometimes gets extremely mean with the contestants. In Season 4, she was very mean to Jessica, and in Season 2, she was mean to Heidi. She also has a habit of 'benching' the dancers that she feels are inadequate, such as Heidi in "Calling You", Twitch in "Mercy" and "Dreaming With a Broken Heart", and Cedric in "I Thought We Had."
^ She's tough, I do remember my first impression of her as a judge in Season 2. She was so critical of everyone, and I thought most did a great job. But then I had to admit her choreos are really creative, it takes me to another place. Love the bench dance, remember that one? Heidi and Travis. oh Travis came back as a choreographer but I missed most of it. He's one of my fave dancers.
^ I never really liked the bench dance because the piece was all about Travis; Heidi didn't even do any dancing.
I think there's a difference between being critical and being unnecessarily mean. In Season 4, she told Jessica's partner (paraphrased): "You look tired of carrying [Jessica]; you need a new partner." In Season 2, she told Heidi (paraphrased): "You struggle with choreography; you know that." How are those comments supposed to help them become better dancers?Quote:

She never comes across as being nice, though she seems to have mellowed a lot. I have a feeling she's hard to work with. I don't remember the names of the other choreographers without a face, but they're all great. My favorite dances are not all of Mia. I love all the different styles. So much better and more real than Dancing With the Stars. I don't watch that show, maybe a few minutes of it way back then, I thought it was a joke.
^ I agree that DWTS has become cheesier as the seasons progress. However, if the celebrity is a good dancer, the ballroom dances are much better than those on SYTYCD. The "Thriller" paso doble by Drew Lachey and Cheryl Burke ranks #1 as my favourite DWTS dance.
maybe I'll give it another shot next time. My favorite paso doble is the one with Neil and Sabra, right at the end...it took my breath away!Quote:

I do remember one hip hop dancer that I thought was very good, he's the one that designs his outfits. He's a natural. I was disappointed when he was voted down but not surprised. They seem to dismiss hip hop, maybe because they consider it street dancing? They did keep Ivan from Season 2 in the top 10. He has a few tricks that set him apart from the others, if you remember, that gliding thing with his sneakers.Quote:
