Current Talk '07 I / Re: THE DREAMCURSE
« on: February 20, 2007, 04:07:47 AM »Yes, Angelique isn't afraid to torture and torment children, she already proved that [spoiler]back in 1795, when she stuck pins in Sarah's doll, making Sarah very sick, and with her curse, which she stated everyone who loves Barnabas will die, Sarah falls ill again and dies in Barnabas' arms.[/spoiler]
As far as I am concerned that was Angelique's most awful act.
I completely agree with this! To use and exploit a child for your own personal reasons is inexcusable, and Angelique should never have involved any child in her revenge. After all, they're innocent, and not even desperation, or whatever it is that motivates Angelique can excuse her for harming them.

Angelique definitely knows how to dish out the fear, and in a ruthless way in that she doesn't even care if children suffer.
At the beginning of the dream curse, I enjoyed it when Angelique came to barnabas and informed him of what was to happen. She is giving him a glimpse of the terror that will eventually befall him, and yet again he is made to feel helpless in the face of her scheming.
Mrs. Johnson showed very touching and true loyalty towards David when she had to resist telling him the dream, even though she was so afraid. She did everything in her power to keep it from him, even going so far as leaving Colinwood to visit her sister in order to keep David safe. I really admired her for that!
As much as I love Julia's character, she didn't seem particularly concerned for those who had experienced the dream. Poor Willie was told several times to forget the dream and get on with the business of finding Adam. She tells Mrs. Johnson that she will simply have to leave Collinwood in order to keep David safe. But she wasn't willing to do something as drastic as leaving Collinwood to keep the dream from spreading. The reason this behavior annoys me, is because Julia has had the dream. She knows all too well the fear of it, and yet she seems so uncaring towards Willie and Mrs. Johnson. Although in her defense, she did show some sympathy towards Mrs. Johnson.
I thoroughly enjoyed professor Stokes during this story line. He was absolutely brilliant in handling the curse, and his biting wit is great! I especially loved the twist when Angelique attempts to convince him that he's Ben Stokes, and professor Stokes coolly tells her he isn't Ben and can't be bullied. Great stuff!

Current Talk '07 I / Re: Nathan Forbes.....who can figure him out?
« on: February 19, 2007, 06:53:19 PM »
Just an observation... But when I first began the 1795 story line, it was really jolting to see kind considerate Joe turned in to a womanizing Nathan Forbes. It took me a few episodes to become accustomed to that particular character.
As for Nathan's sudden transformation, I think he really was a true friend to Barnabas and Jerimiah. There's a point in one of the episodes, I can't recall which one, but I believe it's when Barnabas is about to marry Angelique, and Nathan arrives at the Old House to ask if Barnabas is in some kind of trouble, and if he can help. Barnabas declines his offer, but I got the impression Nathan was genuinely concerned for Barnabas and his situation.
Perhaps it's simply because I have a difficult time separating Joe from Nathan and don't want to think Nathan had planned to take advantage of the Collins' family, but I still think the promise of more power or prestige went to his head, thus turning him in to a jerk. After all, everyone who is friendly with the Collins family doesn't necessarily have to have an alterior motive for doing so. JMHO.

Current Talk '07 I / Re: Most gruesome form of execution, hanging or beheading
« on: February 18, 2007, 11:51:47 PM »
I think all these types of executions are a horrible way to die! Hanging nor beheading is garrenteed to be quick and painless, and to suffer through either would be tortuous in the least!
