    Coco Before Chanel: Thumbs down from me
    Cross-posted at [info]femme_asylum.

    Really really did not like "Coco Before Chanel." Audrey Tautou is gorgeous and I could have looked at her all day, but I found her character's motivations unfathomable, and I had no sense at all where Chanel's great talent and style came from, nor was there any sense of the force in design she would one day become.

    This was nothing but an overblown romance that somehow reduced everything she did to being about some guy. Nauseating. I HATED it.

    Beautiful, yes. But blech.

    I wish someone would make the Chanel film that is in my head. Because this is DEFINITELY not it.

    CHANEL!
    I can't handle the crowds on Black Friday, and besides, my holiday shopping, such as it is, is done. (We're buying for the kids only this year, due to the financial problems of one of my brothers).

    So my sisters in law and I are going to see "Coco Before Chanel," while my brothers and their sons do their manly, boy-ly thing without us. And then this evening, [info]not_yet_defined is doing a marathon of 101-102 and 512-513 over at [info]qaf_marathons, so that's what I'll be doing when I get home!

    See you then!

    more of a general discussion than anything.
    First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to all of the American members! This topic came up during a car ride home with my roommate, so it seems a relevant good wish to make before proposing it haha

    SO ANYWAY. My roommate and I were talking, and we came to the conclusion that every sex scene that has ever been in QAF was used as some sort of plot device or has been important to a character arc. We tried to stump each other with this theory, but couldn't do it! So I need to bring it to the bigger table. They're all aesthetic, of course, haha, but: do you all agree with this unproven theory? Was there a point to every one? Or was this another thing Cowlip couldn't get consistent? Feel free to point out any that you can't see the bigger picture~ behind or whatever. This holiday weekend I'll need some good entertainment.

    (AND SPEAKING OF LONG WEEKENDS, if any of the members here are into the RP scene here on IJ, a small group of people and I are trying to put together a group storyline that would take place in real time and because I don't want to openly waste room advertising when it's just a side note here: the information on that is all here, if anyone is interested.)

    What the Gusmas?
    First, Happy Thanksgiving to all!

    A couple of new fandom friends don't know the origin of the name of the current celebration in [info]qaf_drabbles , "Gusmas," so I thought I'd explain.

    Once upon a time, four fangirls wrote a story together, and the unbelievable [info]url_girl illustrated it. (Well, we didn't write it, exactly -- it was divinely inspired, so it might be better said we channeled it.)

    It was the story of Assbaby!Jesus (Gus for short), and of course, it's his birth we celebrate during the Solstikwanzanukkamas Season, which runs from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day.

    Be warned if you choose to read this fic; you're sure to end up on the bus to the hot place if you do.

    Just a random thought:
    In your opinion, what relationship represents the core of the show? When I say relationship, I don't (necessarily) mean a romantic one. Rather, I'm defining it as bond between two or more characters – be it romantic, platonic, or familial. This is less an "what's your OTP" question than "if you strip everything else away, what relationship remains?"

    I've heard a lot of different answers to this kind of discussion over the years, but I don't know that I've ever come up with a definitive answer on my own. For me, there are three main possibilities:

    ( Under the cut! )

    What do you think? What represents QAF's core relationship to you? Is it one of my choices, or something else completely?
