Bree and Daniel are gone.

They have been kidnapped, they vanished or were swallowed up by a big dark hole. We are left with Gemma who cannot do anything to find them, for she is in another country. She won't even realize they are gone, just assumes they stopped doing videos.

We now only get videos of Gemma's life.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

I know, but I am one of the spoiled ones. I didn't discover this until the videos started coming like every other day. I never had to wait a week.

Geez, this is horrible. I am a 40 year old woman bitching about having to wait for video's from fictional teenagers. LOL

All I'm sayin is there better be a REASON for the wait. Deal with the issue at hand, not biscuits. Bree's parents better be zombies or something that she couldn't at least tell us she was OK.

I think some people are a bit spoiled by the frequency of videos...getting testy is pretty silly. Better be a good reason? Or what??? At least there isn't a week or more lag, now..and we have more than one person making videos. Just sit back and relax, for goodness sake...

I wasn't trying to be "testy". Just showing my addiction to all this. My comment before was just the first thing that popped into my head this morning. I had to laugh.

I'm missing videos from Daniel. All we've been getting are Bree and Gemma (who seems to be picking up more and more of Bree's facial and vocal expressions).

I want some danielbeast!

Edit to add: I find it soooo annoying that Gemma's and Bree's videos use all the same camera tricks, angles, etc. They are supposed to be two seperate girls living in two different countries, and yet their videos are edited exactly the same. Gemma sounds/looks like she is completely aping Bree. No originality what so ever in the videos they've done for her. I think the Creators fell down on this one. Just MHO.

Gotta agree with you on that one! I noticed this last Gemma video was a blatant copy of bree's style...

I also think we need Daniel vids, I mean, he was so involved for a bit and now he doesn't talk to us.

This doesn't explain the camera editing, but don't forget that Bree and Gemma were brought up the same way, and for awhile in the same community. It is only logical that some of their mannerisms be alike. Both were sheltered from the "real world."

And lets not forget that this is fiction, a story and both characters are being led by the same creators. It's not any different than actors on a soap, which are also all filmed the same way. Look at music too, most songs by the same artist all have the same kind of sound. That is what sets them apart from other music groups.

I get what you are saying about them both being from the same creators, but they are not portraying this as a show. I always thought we were supposed to suspend belief and think of these as real people, thus totally seperate and original.

As far as having similar mannerisms because they were briefly in the same commune some years ago...I lived with my sister in the same house for 10 years, and yet we have no similarities in any way, shape of fashion. I think similar upraising doesn't account for almost identical videos.

I just think it would be more realistic to have them have more differing videos. At least it would make Gemma's more interesting to watch. I see one of her videos pop up, I'm not even excited to see it. I watch it out of more of a feeling of being afraid to miss something that might pertain to Bree or Daniel.

I keep expecting Gemma to pop up with a Proving Science Wrong video.

I see your point. Let's hope she doesn't start playing with Purple Monkey too.

I wonder if this last video of her with Bree's mannerisms wasn't from alot of the people complaining on here that they thought she was bitchy before? I even noticed a few post where people were wanting her to be more like Bree.

I think what we are seeing is Gemma, is just the creators trying to find the right personality from the character. I may be wrong. I am one of the few who like Gemma, but like you I don't get real excited about her videos yet. I think maybe they will get more exciting though since Bree and Daniel are absent.

Is it just me, or are we the only one's hanging out today. Gee! Don't we have anything better to do? LOL

I don't know if anyone has said this but what if the reason why Gemma is acting more like Bree is because she is eventually going to become Bree? It's hard for me to explain but it's an idea. I know alot of people threw out there that they thought Gemma was jealous of Bree being in the ceremony. Maybe she's tryin to be more like her so they'll let her be in it? I don't know, it really is time for a new vid!

Beautiful Nightmare · Tue Nov 07, 2006 11:43 am

I'm here...reading along...not much to say aside from what I've already said.

I definitely think it's time for a new vid from Daniel.
