Twilight definitely didn't need to be five movies. I'm on the fence about whether Hunger Games needed to be four movies.

At least stuff happened in Mockingjay, but I tried watching Part 1 of that and didn't finish it. I haven't even gotten to Part 2 LOL. I've never seen Part 2 of Breaking Dawn all the way through either, but like I said, I already know nothing actually happens in that one, so no big loss there.

LOL We totally missed that opportunity. I need to look up that thread; I forgot about us messing with Tanja here LOL.

I'm cracking up at some of the stuff we said to her.

I found something I quoted from it in the first Writing Thread and it says it's somewhere I can't see, so maybe it was too off topic for writing. ;)
I also got to comment on her spelling and try to persuade her to post on the site. We're terrible, but hilarious, people.

That's a good point about canon. I don't know if people write fanfic for The Ruins (I guess it probably exists; just like porn, there's fanfic for everything), but I'm sure they do for The Walking Dead. I guess it would be important to specify if it's the novel/comic universe or the TV universe.
Edit: Out of curiosity, I looked, and there are 4 fanfics for The Ruins on AO3. There are two separate tags, one for the novel and one for the movie. https://archiveofourown.org/tags/The%20Ruins%20(2008)/works

Possibly because there's not much that just stops at two anymore.
Four fanfics is more than zero! I assumed it would be that way too "Walking Dead -- Comic" or "Walking Dead -- TV Show."

I was the most unproductive person during that time when I probably should have just tried to write instead. I guess it depends on the time limit. If it's a set start time, I don't want to get sucked into writing, but if it's a more flexible start time, I might.

Ugh, watching/listening to yourself on video is the worst!
Do you ever find that when you're busy and have no time to write or other obligations you need to fulfill before you can write, all you want to do is write... but then when you finally find yourself with free time to write, you waste it? I'm terrible about that. I'll spend all week looking forward to writing on the weekend and then be totally unproductive when the weekend rolls around.

Hopefully it got moved to a secret board and not deleted. That was a good thread!
As much as the plagiarism thing sucked, that Tanja drama was so entertaining! She really united all us BSB authors against her.
