lirazel: An outdoor scene from the film Picnic at Hanging Rock ([ats] brilliant)

ahem

I just had a mind-melting moment when I realized that, no, my crazy brain wasn’t tricking me, and yes, that really was Amy Acker in those episodes of Wishbone, aka the Greatest Show in the History of the World. It’s like COLLISION OF AWESOME THINGS. I seriously haven’t been this excited since I realized that Moody Spurgeon grew up to be Zone from Dollhouse.

Someone please explain to me why I get so irrationally excited about things like this? Because I was just sitting here flailing going, "OMG SHE WAS PRISCILLA IN THE COURTSHIP OF MILES STANDISH EPISODE! I REMEMBER THAT ONE! I REMEMBER THINKING SHE WAS SO PRETTY!" And I feel like I should not get this worked up.

So on a scale from 1 to 10, please tell me how silly you think it is that this excites me so. Go!

Not at all because I DO THE EXACT SAME THING!

Like, especially when it's something that I know. My sister loves the movie Princess Mononoke so I used to watch it all the time when I was younger. I also used to watch The X-Files all the time too and it's still my love! So imagine my excitement when I realized a little while ago that Gillian Anderson (AKA SCULLY) did one of the voices in Princess Mononoke!

WISHBONE = GREATEST THING OF MY CHILDHOOD.

I'm afraid I am filled with fannish glee whenever my fandoms collide, too! I can't believe I didn't recognize her from Wishbone!

THIS IS MY LIFE, PRETTY MUCH. In a way where I have had this exact experience. She also plays Cathy in the Northanger Abbey episode, which is like, some things are so delightful they shouldn't even exist in this WORLD.

I remember cracking up when I found out that Hayden Christensen was the annoying kid who turned into a wooden puppet in one Goosebumps episode. XD

And every time Billy Crudup's character yells battle cries in Princess Mononoke, all I can hear is "I AM A GOLDEN GOD!!!"

It is 0 silly, because you just BLEW MY MIND. (Also now, because I went to her wiki page, I realize she was also on Alias. Double mind blown).

I'd say this is a 0 on your silliness scale - both Wishbone and Amy Acker deserve nothing short of absolute seriousness.








No, but really, that is awesome! :)
