0179- "Quitting The Sauce" [4/24/07]

I loved the video, and I agree with Jen that Daniel said more during the hypnosis than Jonas revealed. The look he gave the camera was quite obvious. I hope we find out whatever it is at some time, but I'm not betting that we will.

The boys both looked good, and I'm glad Daniel has decided to give up the drinking. Although how he plans on fighting the Order, I don't know. Perhaps we are seeing the beginnings of DBJ joining the resistance (TFW, since Bree is already a supposed member of HoO).

Alright, I'm going to go watch again. Me likey!

ETA: To add Jen. Just noticed your signature, Jen.

Jonas just seemed so... shifty after the hypnosis. Why didn't he film it?

Thanks for taking the time to edit your post, Juli. I didn't mean to cause any trouble or extra work, though, I just noticed a lot of people calling me 'Smelltheflowers' and had a little laugh every time. I figured it would make more sense for people to actually call me by my name if they liked

Probably because, as I speculated earlier, whatever Daniel said most likely involved Jonas' and Bree’s 'relationship', and was either embarrassing or didn't paint Jonas in the most favourable light. I think a lot of posters made this point during the release of the previous video: Jonas and Daniel using hypnosis is like opening a can of worms. Who knows what opinions or thoughts they have been keeping to themselves all this time. Someone is likely to be hurt by another's opinions, as it's clear that the dynamic between the three of them is precarious at best.

I liked this video. It had a few funny moments, and it's good to see Daniel again. It's also good to see that he's going to try working around his depression without drinking. He can certainly do something more productive with his anger.

It also seems like they might be getting somewhere as far as the plot goes, which is what is needed right now. It's been a while since there was a significant advancement.

I agree with those who say that Daniel said more than what Jonas told him. I think whatever he said probably upset Jonas a little bit. Made him feel bad, perhaps? Guilty maybe?

To be fair, not all of us are so set on the hope that Jules goes away. There are some potentials I like more than her, sure, but I still kind of like her. There's probably at least one or two more people here who don't dislike her either.

I'm also not convinced that she's a bad actor. Until we see her interacting with another actor, we won't really know. So far all she's done is talk to a camera. That may not be what she's used to.

In any case, the series belongs to the Creators, and if they have something in mind that they're absolutely set on and are sure is the best thing they could do (even if the majority of us disagree), I think they should do that. If an artist doesn't make their art to satisfy themselves, then there's no way they should expect it to satisfy anyone else.

Many of the problems the series had between the revelation that it's a production and Daniel's kidnapping were probably a result of them listening to us too much. There were the people who demanded a return to Bree sitting on a bed doing goofy crap, and then there were those who insisted that she grow up. It was a painful period for everyone (all the more so because they tried making it both).

aww loved Daniel's shirt... a shout out to the fact that he was back here last week? (in the town i am in no less

)

but anyway, good to see them using the forums and a pretty good video overall. some info, some laughs, good times.

I haven't even watched the whole video yet.
I stopped at the part where he said:

You know I'm Batman!

That is nothing short of amazing.
THANK YOU CREATORS! THANK YOU!
That pretty much made my life.

Okay, I'm off to Beast Chat to profess once more all of my love.

Jen, Juli, Lurker, all good points.
(i don't hate Jules either, in fact i think she's cute and funny, i just don't see her as the new girl. i could see her as a new member of a parallel group with their own story.)
the pushups might be a tad easier for db to do on grass rather than rocks.
i do hope daniel keeps moving in a positive direction. he shows some real insight by talking about his anger. he must come to terms with his anger towards bree and jonas, too. what he expressed while drunk/hungover about them and his feelings of rejection and betrayal are still unresolved. just because he seemingly forgives, doesn't mean it's dealt with. that said, it can probably wait while db gets it together more.
good vid and good shout out to the forum homeys. look some more guys, there's lots here.

OMG MY NAME WAS USED IN A VIDEO!

I'm ready to cry.

Any doubts that I might have been feeling about LG15 are now completely gone. I love everything and everyone.[/b]

Daniels back. Yay. Uhm all I can think to say is that Jonas should show when Daniel was remembering being drunk. =D

Well that was AP psychology all over again.

Jonas just PM'd me. He wanted me to know that Daniel told him under hypnosis that he was in love with me and desperately wanted for us to run away together and get married.

Well that was great, I'm glad to see that Daniel and Jonas are being proactive and will get us some results. I'm glad that Daniel has put down the bottle.

I wonder if they might go back to Vegas in order to find where they were held at, to possibly trigger some memories.

The whole Bree not being in the same videos as Daniel and Jonas is very odd. I guess the actors are having conflicts with being able to film at the same time. Maybe that's what this whole Jules thingy is. They filmed several episodes with Bree by herself talking about some girl on the computer so Jessica can do other stuff outside of LG15 and still remain a part of the series
