Sci Fi Chica is one of the alter egos of Jamie, a seventeen-year-old girl who lives in a nowhere town and wants to be a screenwriter and movie/television (not sure which yet, maybe both) director. As the name implies, I'm something of a science fiction geek. I'm somewhat of an entry pimp for Buffy The Vampire Slayer (like it actually needs any more) and Babylon Five. I greatly enjoy MST 3 King and just about anything that allows me to excercise my considerable sense of snark. Loves: Babylon Five, anything Whedon, A Song Of Ice And Fire, Harry Potter, anything by Tamora Pierce, Pushing Daisies, and a number of crime procedurals such as CSI (original only), and various L&O incarnations, and NCIS and Bones especially. Intensely dislikes: Reality Television, High School Musical, Inheritance, and Twilight. Apparently, I am the only person in the universe who actually likes the following things: Catwoman (yes, that one. It wasn't a great work of art, but it was fun), the Star Wars Prequels,Buffy season six and seven, and Star Trek: Enterprise. (Yes, all of it). I plan to do the following things if I achieve my dream of becoming a famous entertainment mogul:
- Starting a network called the Un-Cancelled Network where shows that have a strong fanbase and were screwed by the regular networks can come to either finish up properly (if they were only screwed out of a decent finale, like Enterprise)or live out their rightful runs (see almost the entire Too Good to Last page, but I am thinking personally of Firefly, Tru Calling, and New Amsterdam) if they only got less than two seasons.
- Personally ensure that more girls have the opportunity to become screenwriters and directors outside romantic comedy (especially in my chosen field of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror)
- Abolish the stereotype of people who like aforementioned field as pocket-protector-wearing basement-dwelling no-life geeks
- Make lists for public consumption of totally critically/publicly maligned or chronically underrated movies and shows that deserve a second chance and that were mostly only savaged because of bandwagoning or mostly forgotten despite their awesomeness(here I am thinking of the aforementioned Catwoman and Star Wars prequels for the former category, and Babylon Five,Forbidden Planet, etc. for the latter)
- Make lists for public consumption of completely overrated, so-called "classic" movies and TV shows that really need to go away forever (and here I am thinking of anything by Stanley Kubrick, particularly The Shining and 2001: A Space Odessy, and pretty much anything that goes on most of the AFI's science fiction "best" lists, and most of the things that go on Top 50/100 Shows of All Time Lists [with a very, very few exceptions])
