Lauz Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 See! Look how much they could have elaborated on! Ratings would've been through the roof I tell you... but that already got blown up I'm going to join you in shaking my head angrily! Even the script with the actual lines sucked. The one line I always cringe at is "You really are a fool aren't you Peter?" I'm like CLICHE! OUCH IT HURTS! If you're gonna down talk people then don't get blown up Maxine Trood would have been great to see! Maybe watching her walk around town casually, meeting old faces. And Kim! How could I forget. They did date afterall. I would've like for them to chat and see if he recognized her. Even on the finale she's like "SURPRIZE!" and Kim said nothing? Pfft... sif that would happen. That's one more thing left unexplained. Miss Laura McPherson. If you're gonna introduce tons of new characters at least explain them properly! A name will not suffice I think maybe after the first explosion Zoe may have... wait Laura was in the explosion! So that means they would have had to have met pretty damn fast. A theory could be they had some sort of relationship, wouldn't be a stretch to imagine considering Curse Zoe and her luring charms! I'm enjoying this ranting! Be back in an hour or so, gotta start that english due tomorrow
Oxidizer Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Yeah, I know. I found Tracey's last lines cringe-worthy as well. And Zoe's, I'm afraid. This was the legendary Summer Bay stalker they were writing for, not Colleen. Her last ever words! Why the hell did the rush that? I guess her final words fitted everything her character stood for, but still clichéd: "I always said Summer Bay would pay." How did they? I so very desperately want to write Eve/Laura fic now, but I can't. Damnit! BTW, how's your essay going? I kinda disappeared there for a while, so I assume you're back?
Lauz Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Haha good point. Summer Bay would pay would they? Ummm... yeah how exactly... you're kinda... a corpse... sooooo... Obviously nothing was thought through. To be honest the whole segment was cringe worthy. Stalker reveal - When I saw Zoe's face I jumped so high I smashed the ceiling light. Stalker return - I lol'd. I'm sure you'll be able to write a fic soon! What are you having trouble with exactly? I just printed the first few pages of my Eve/Tracey one. God it's old, but I'm gonna keep working on it. Essay is going **** I have to talk about themes and quotes but the pages I have to do hardly have anything worth talking about. So I'm sitting here pondering things to write. Looks like I'll be up for a while haha.
Oxidizer Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 I know! When I first saw the 2005 season final, I thought that Zoe's return was going to be so damn awesome. I can't believe they didn't even refer to her as Eve either, especially seeing as Peter kept calling her Eve during the tyre factory episodes. I got writersblock. Plus there's another original story I want/should write, but I'm finding it difficult. I did have a small trilogy set this year where Tracey avenged Zoe's death in the city, but it's quite lame now that I think about it. It was going to be called Haunted - but I'm not gonna write it. I really want to write a two-part Zoe/Tracey fic similiar to the way I wrote Pharmacy, revolving the hospital scene from my icon, but I'm stumped for ideas. Ooh, actually, I just got one. If I get round to writing it, it'll probably be a short. Is this the same fic you were writing last year? I'm still hyped, you know!
Lauz Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 It's the one and the same! The one I kept saying I'd post but then I gradually had more things to worry about and so I never did. But the thing is it's pretty much finished. There's just some key things I'm not sure about. I'll have to work on it later this week. I read Pharmacy yesterday It was really good, very intriguing! The hospital is always an interesting thing to write about. Hehe I've got writers block too, except if I don't cure it quick I'll fail english How did Haunted go exactly? So Tracey was in the city avenging Zoe right? What were you gonna have her do? Something evil I'll bet The only reason I could think of Peter called her Zoe is because it sounds less, well, scary I suppose. Plus that's how everyone knew her in the first place.
Traceve Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 I feel like finishing that fic I never posted Post the fic! We have all been waiting for it.
Oxidizer Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Almost finished? Oh, I'm well excited now! What's it called? Hee. Thanks. Pharmacy's probably my best/darkest Stalker stuff. I'm glad you liked it! Here's hoping you shake off that block then! Haunted was going to be 3 parts long. Part 1 was going to be Peter and Clare working together to solve Amanda's murder at city HQ where a photo of Zoe smiling in Tracey's apartment is slipped under the door. Part 2 was going to be Peter and Clare thinking about how they're going to catch the alleged 'copycat' ('cause Zoe and Tracey are believed dead etc.) and arranging to meet at his place later, where Clare doesn't turn up, but a video's in her place. On it is a bound and gagged Clare, with a similiar 'tick tock' sound like the engagment party tape with instructions to meet at the hospital rooftop. Part 3 was Peter finding Clare's body, shot dead, the stalker/copycat unveils themself as one badass Tracey, who caps his ass after revealing how they met (at the hospital) before either turning the gun on herself of jumping from the roof (I hadn't planned the suicide that far then lol). But, I've got a title for the 2-part Zoe/Tracey fic I might write, called Fading Light. If I ever get round to doing it, it'll be centered around the '05 end of season final.
Lauz Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Holy crap Shannon!!! I remember names Wow it's been awhile, and by awhile I mean AGES! How have you been? I was wondering how many people still came on this famous topic
Traceve Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 I haven't actually been in this thread in ages! I just noticed you had posted so I came in lol. Sorry Andy.
Lauz Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Andy to me your ideas seem pretty solid! You've clearly thought about it and I think it sounds great. Awwww poor Tracey suicides? Well it's definitely gonna add action to it. Hmmm... roof or gunshot. Gunshot is more cliche, but I like it Cause what if she jumped off the roof and didn't die, then she'd be a mix of pissed off, embarrassed and in massive pain I can't remember what I ended up calling mine. It started off as Memory or Remember. But now I'm gonna change it if need be. What's Fading Light gonna be about? Sounds good though
