Drive - 1x03: "Let The Games Begin" 2007.04.16

[fembuck]

Wow, Alex Tully really IS Mal. Cool! Also his bad-ass Dodge Charger just makes me remember "Grindhouse" and that's always a good thing. Tully is so much more bad-ass than Stuntman Mike though, plus she SAVES the girl, and the ladies still love him.

Wendy Patrakas is cah-ray-zee! And I love her for it. And I love that Ivy seems impressed by her and scared of her at the same time. Who knew a hand on your wrist and discussions about baby-seats could be so awesome. Not I, not I, but Minear schooled me something good.

Corinna ... uh, still looks good in those pants. Yeah, not much to say about Corinna this episode other than she really looks good in those pants.

Was totally bored by Army Couple, and by SpunkyTeenandDad. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. We already knew he could lie, we saw him do it last episode. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Katie Finneran!!!! *hugs and twirls and hugs* I <3 you Katie! And I love your new stream-lined sexy hair, and farm girl sass! *hugs and twirls*

Richard Brooks, it was nice to see you again. Stick around man, I love you. Not as much as Katie, but pretty darn close.

I'm loving Sam and Dean Salazar (tm TWoP). My love for Kevin Alejandro knows no bounds (Winston talking about his mom = me melting), and I liked Sean this episode after disliking him in the first episode and then slightly warming to him in the second. J.D. Pardo is just so pretty, but every time they focus on his pretty lips I flash back to seeing him in drag as Gwen Araujo and ... actually that's a good thing too because he's a really pretty girl as well.

Awww, Dupree (aka Sexy Bounty Hunter Lady) you were smokin' hot and I will miss you. Maybe you can come back later and be smokin' hot some more ... please. Seriously, Sasha Barrese reminds me an American and tanned Jamie Murray and that is ALWAYS a good thing.

Also, the ending was just frakking EVIL! But deliciously so.

*taps foot waiting for next week ... jitters in anticipation of Heroes and Drive back to back*

man, the bit with Mal - I don't really care what his name is on this show, Nathan'll remain Mal to me
or Preacher Caleb on Buffy
that was a good role too

but I digress - Wendy and Ivy is still hot imo(and that somewhat crazy bit just adds to it *raises eyebrows then shakes head at self for being lame*)

[billy-rose.livejournal.com]

*sigh* forgot to finish my Mal thought
that's what happens when I get distracted...
anyway, that bit was kinda messed up - but I want that car
I really, really want that car... so shiny ^_^

Oh I know! I seems like both Minear and Tarantino are fans of Vanishing Point. *I've really got to watch Vanishing Point now!* But between Grindhouse and now this, I'm totally in love with Dodge Chargers and how they instantly make people hotter :D

*smacks forehead* damn, that's why that car looked so familiar
honestly I've got a terrible memory sometimes... *sigh*
how about you see it, then let the rest of us know if it's worth it? ;)

I dunno, I kinda liked Stuntman Mike's first car better
I mean yes, 'twas tragic what happened, but still - one hell of a ride

Nathan'll remain Mal to me

He plays Mal so well! And Mal was stolen from the world far too early. I'm glad to see the Captain Tightpants in Tully coming out!

but I digress - Wendy and Ivy is still hot imo(and that somewhat crazy bit just adds to it *raises eyebrows then shakes head at self for being lame*)

I totally agree. They definitely have some good chemistry going. And maybe it was just me, but I think Ivy was a little turned on by Wendy's sudden crazy intenseness. I'm looking forward to the gun scene, because I'm sure that Wendy will make with the soft voice and the puppy dog eyes and Ivy will give into her girl crush and help her and then no one can deny their love! lol

RE:

[billy-rose.livejournal.com]

oooh I hadn't even thought about the soft voice and puppy eye action! *shakes head at self*
ya never know, she might be into the vaguely kinky stuff like that, so there is hope at least! ^_^

OMG WHY TIM MINEAR.... WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME SHIP THEM..... WHYYYYYYYY

Anyways.

*sigh*

Yes.

Katie LOOOOVEEEEE. And. Wendy. LOOOVE. And. *blinky* DRIVE LOVE OMG THAT'S TOTALLY WHERE I KNOW SEAN FROM OMG OMG OMG. *FLAIL*

And Alex Tully pwning Stuntman Mike TFW.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME SHIP THEM..... WHYYYYYYYY

Because they are awesomely mismatched, and oddly cute. SHIP! SHIP! SHIP! And you know what I'm loving, is that I could totally see Wendy on top, and Ivy being all like "oh, okay, so ... yeah, do what you want to" (but she's not so secretly turned on by it) after the hand hold of "do what I say bitch or I'm gonna cut ya!"

Katie LOOOOVEEEEE

Hmmm, Katie. Smokin' hot Katie no less. I hope next time she shows up she gets some comic dialogue though, because smokin' hot, smart, and FUNNY Katie is the best combination.

OMG THAT'S TOTALLY WHERE I KNOW SEAN FROM OMG OMG OMG. *FLAIL*

LOL! I was like "I know those pretty lips from somewhere!"

And Alex Tully pwning Stuntman Mike TFW.

Totally. Alex Tully would've gotten a lap dance from Jungle Julia AND Butterfly, he would have dropped Pam off save at home because he's a gentleman like that, and he would have totally let Abernathy ride shot gun while Kim and Zoe took turns riding on the hood. And if he got shot he absolutely would not have cried! Because Alex Tully is teh man!

Omg. I think you just killed me. Cause my heart kinda did this little leap and *sigh* Oh jeeez.

So, can I metaquote you?

Wendy and Ivy are so awesome.

And Mal, i mean Alex, and that car. So freaking amazing.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Wendy and Ivy are so awesome.

I know! I'm totally digging them. I'm glad they're partnered up because Ivy was bugging me with the other girls, but I love her with Wendy. They're such an odd couple yet somehow well matched.

And Mal, i mean Alex, and that car. So freaking amazing.

Word. That car is so sweet. Dodge Charger's will now automatically be linked with panties dropping in my mind, lol.

Awww, Bounty Hunter Lady you were smokin' hot and I will miss you. Maybe you can come back later and be smokin' hot some more ... please.

Yes, I concur 100% with this statement and I'll even throw in the army couple for free... Yeah, sure, I'd probably trade them in for the old fogies on the bike, the Katrina gals, the Wonderfall sister whose playing another sister, a commercial, but whatever that's so not the point.

My friend started watching the show yesterday and she told me, "This sh*t is going to cancelled. Its definitely convoluted," and I got all sorts of defensive so I know this show is about to become crack, a la Heroes.

I am so not a fan of car chases and the movies that usually surround them but when I realised this was by the same guy behind 'Wonderfalls' I couldn't download fast enough.

Wendy has to be my favourite, she's so crazy with a side of nice, and the perfect road partner for the outwardly more rebellious Ivy. A great pair.

So true about the boredom of the army couple and the need for a return of bounty hunter babe. Maybe they can set her after Tully next and she and Corinne can get in a fight and roll around in the dust and... Okay, mind wandered a bit there.

There needs to be more Katie and Jubal Early.

Teenage daughter girl reminds me of something but I'm not sure who... maybe Jaye from Wonderfalls? It's very frustrating that I can't place her.

Anyone notice that Richard Brooks character's name is Detective ErhlE. It's weird watching him not playing a crazy psychopathic bounty hunter, I keep expecting him to confuse what people say and go off on a philosophical tangent.
