alexandral: (Meteor garden - Necklace)
[personal profile] alexandral
For [livejournal.com profile] allbloomedout and all the fans of the gorgeous F4.



I am still wallowing in "Hana Yori Dango" glee, but I can't recommend the Taiwanese version, "Meteor Garden", well enough. It is a classic among doramas and it is classic for a reason - because it is pure fan and lovely eye-candy and Vanness and Ken and Vic and Jerry. I think the manga itself has an absolutely winning idea of that fantastic friendship of four guys. For me, "Meteor Garden" would not be the same if it was just about DMS and Shancai and didn't have stronger-then-life friedship unit of F4. In a way this is what is special in "Rome" for me, THE FRIENDSHIP.

And if you haven't seen Meteor Garden yet and need some encouragement, look at this

The subs for episode 4 are out!!! http://chochajin.livejournal.com/72836.html?view=1575044#t1575044

Seriously, you can watch "Meteor Garden" just for two of them. That sounds really interesting! You're making me really curious! :)

I am not sure about conflicting plots - everything I seen so far in HYD 2 is somewhere in the middle of MG. Maybe I should just wait out to be on safe side :) I'm spoiler chicken. I definitely want to be surprised by what HYD throws at me. ^_^

You're welcome! WOW that's really fast for a torrent. I can't wait to read your thoughts on ep 4. I just finished and still need time to recover. I'm so in love with this show!!
I will try my best to keep you unspoiled!! I am sorry that I have mentioned some spoilery things before! It's okay!! I think I'll be surprised even If I know a little bit of spoilers. Just seeing how it would be acted out would be different from what I have imagine in my head so don't worry! :D Thank you for keeping your best for me to be unspoiled though I'm tempted to be spoiled since I saw [personal profile] dangermousie has made a blog on spoilers for ep 4-7. I'm staying strong though! Have you read it? -- We've been waiting so long for Snow Queen I'm getting weak. I want to know the ending..

I'll try to stay unspoiled too (as unspoiled as it could be after watching MG), to keep you company. :D I am staying away from posts with spoilers too, I guess I quite enjoyed watching "The snow queen" in a less spoilery mode, though I HAD to know the ending. :D

It actually only 8 minutes left - my connection is very good and for good torrents it usually gives a good result. No such luck with "Loveholic" though, very slow. :D

I quite enjoyed watching "The snow queen" in a less spoilery mode, though I HAD to know the ending. :D That's good! I think the only time I've known the ending was ALTK. I don't think it changed my enjoyment since really can't see a happy ending from the start.

Your torrent connection is amazing! I'm very jealous. Torrents for me tend to be very slow unless it's something very new. Oh I've found Loveholic at jdramas: http://community.livejournal.com/jdramas/tag/loveholic I've only dl episode 1 and the quality is not as good as usual 700mb HD tv files. I just check it's 212 mb, no wonder. But if you want to see it right away it's not too bad. :)

I had downloaded files from jdramas already, but I don't particular like the quality. Will have to do, though, the torrents are dead. ** sigh **

Yeah, the quality is disappointing but better than having to watch on youtube. I'm sorry the torrents are dead :( OMG!!! SNOW QUEEN COMPLETE ON DADDICTS!!!!!!!!!!!

You're welcome!! *hugs* It's sure going to be a good night :) I'm almost hesitant to watch it since it would mean it's really over. ^_^

Very bad quality, sadly - I have already downloaded it. Though it has to do, the torrents from d-addicts are dead.

Ohhhh, I am sorry to hear that. It's such a pretty show so good quality would be nice.

Hmmm. I have a boxset so...wracks brains where else one could get it...

They have a set on ebay for only $8 (that would be 4 pounds, right)

Oh, that's cheap! I am considering to ask Mr. Alexander to buy it on e-bay ( I don't have an e-bay account, but he has). he will never say no. :D I'go through the first couple of the episodes first - I managed to download episode 1 from the torrents.
