Message: <blockquote data-quote="Zelda Themelin" data-source="post: 5829032" data-attributes="member: 167">I have somewhat dark past. I was always most sane person of my company. And I have seen many bad things, and luckily I wasn't there anymore when most bad things happened. I understand people well, but I have low empathy. Luckily maybe. Even for myself, which is good thing. I have permanent health issues, not because of my life choices, bad genes probably, my mother died very young too.I like fantasy, because real life sucks. Well, it's kinda funny too. And boring, mostly. And major problem for me is that my disease causes me to be very tired most of the time, and that I don't do so much things I used to, but I have constant action craving nature. Roleplaying games and writing stories have always helped me to focus my energies in positive ways. Also , since I quit so early being a kid, I am thrilled about kiddie things, like theme parks, balloons and candys. Also, nowdays I prefer something new and refreshing what comes to entertaiment.I used to watch lot of moves and tv shows back to 80-90, also read lot of books and comics. I didn't sleep that much then and I had to fill those long nights with something. I really liked those things then. And IMO they were bit better. Outer Limits tv-series had lot of same actors, but stories were very interesting and though provoking. Everything coming from tv nowdays seem to be sort of story-lite. Better cgi, yeh, but it seems like boring waste of time.  I rather go out and start some conversations with random people. I like HBO series. They go sometimes bit too far with teases of graphic sex and violence, but for me it's important those elements exist. They make people more believable and thus I care for even characters I dislike more. Charactes from most shows are too pure and kinda immature/old people personalities. I don't put that quite right, but sense of "bit off" is strong. Plus I find people's behavior in shows like star trek new iterations boring and irritating.Of modern television I follow Doctor Who and it's spinoffs, yes even the kiddieshow, some of enemies are interesting.I liked the Event, but I am not too sad it ended.I like Game of Thrones. I don't like book, so storywise it's kinda "plah" but I enjoy characters and visulalization.I like Real Time with Bill Maher, I think it's intriguing and kinda funnyI watch various BBC documents, the Universe too, though it was not that greatThanks to my sis I started to watch the Revenge, I like itI liked Spartacus, first seasonTrue Blood, though some of episodes are kinda "doh"I liked Luther, and songs at end of episode were really coolI watch music shows, even Idol stuff.Of bit futher in the bast I liked Lost Room, and was quite happy it stayed miniseries, I am positive they would have ruined the good thing.I rather liked Lost when it began but it lost it's charm before 1st season when I realized it was one of those plot-shows where writers don't have a clue about truth either. You don't write good mysteries that way.I am not really fan of gritty Historical shows. They have too much predictabilty. Historical stories were popular a while back, now it's time for more comics and fairy tales again. Which means I'm going to be going to movies lot as my sister's company. Only fairy tale story that really impressed me was miniseries called 10th Kingdom. Sex and violance alone doesn't alone make good show for me. I want some original story. But I prefer ones with sex and violance, because, well, it's very human. I like reading really weird comics (well more usual too), but I don't like too much werid in movies/tv-series. HBO:s Carnival (mmh was that the name) was bit too weird for me. Shows lIke that or shows bit pointless dream like scenarios. Mysteries should have answers or titulate people's imagination to guess what truth could be like. If it just confuses, it's no good. I don't like writers who keep killing characters just to shock. Killing should be either plot-reasonable or look like sorry accident (random casuality). There was one fantasy writer who liked to murder all his characters. Some really liked the books. I didn't. There was that, and then people drinking orange juice and other too modern sounding things. These are off-putters, unless it's purposefully camp like Xena the warrior princess and their likes.All in all, considering how my tastes for fiction have changed during the years, I don't wonder why tv offering have also changed. And movies. And keep on changing.</blockquote>
