Eliza

[livejournal.com profile] justhuman thinks that Eliza Dushku transcends sexuality. So you get a poll!

[Poll #1349085]

My answer comes WITH the disclaimer that I'd have totally rushed out to do her circa Bring It On, but she doesn't have quite the same appeal right now.

Hmm. My favorite Eliza era was in the later seasons of Buffy and Angel when she had a bit more weight on her.

What changed for you?

Her face shape seems to have changed with weight loss/possible rhinoplasty, and there's a harshness/hollowness to it now that wasn't there before.

I thought it was cheek implants. But yes, I know what you mean.

Hah, yeah. I made a twitter post tonight, "I loved you, Eliza Dushku, when you had your original face." And some guy sweetly tried to argue that maybe it was just getting older. I told him real people's cheeks don't get bigger at the same time that their bodies get ribbier, but it's sweet to try and think so.

(And seriously, I don't mean to imply I think plastic surgery is WRONG, it's just that she looked better before. The freaky thing is that on the old video that was shown at the end of this episode of "Dollhouse", it really looked like her real face. Weird.

Yes, exactly. I don't know why anyone would have looked at her and thought that she needed plastic surgery. She was so beautiful before.

Ditto, and for much the same reason.

I think that it is imperative that you post a picture to accompany this poll, so that people can consider their choice more carefully.

(Read: I want to see a hot picture of Eliza!)

[identity profile] taffimai.livejournal.com 2009-02-14 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, given the choice I'd much prefer Buffy Season Two Eliza. But I wouldn't kick Dollhouse Eliza out of bed for eating crackers.

It would have been the last answer, but I googled her :0)

You *definitely* need to finish watching Angel! *g*

[identity profile] stackcats.livejournal.com 2009-02-14 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
She was Faith! I didn't recognise her.

[identity profile] natlyn.livejournal.com 2009-02-15 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. More weight. Still hot though.

also, this is a thoroughly unfair thing to appear on my RP f-list. Just saying :-P the boy says he can't respond or Eliza-mun will kick him.

*giggles* Sorry, darling. And send my apologies to the boy as well.

Edited for subtly.

eee YAY. (I may be way too familiar with the crash after an extended performance run. And how much do I love having people to thread it with this year rather than action post? Also the boy is prodding me to write more about Geoff.)

[identity profile] taffimai.livejournal.com 2009-02-16 09:06 am (UTC)(link)
It's a lovely thread. And yeah, I can't imagine that the crash after doing twelve performances a week wouldn't be just awful.

Geoff stuff would be interesting. He's still feeling guilty, I assume?

[personal profile] vae 2009-02-16 09:10 am (UTC)(link)
Oh hell yes. Also I have no work to do today - again... - so writing may happen.

[identity profile] taffimai.livejournal.com 2009-02-16 09:14 am (UTC)(link)
Oooh, excellent! Well, not excellent that he's feeling guilty. Excellent that you have writing time. Okay, okay, the angst is excellent as well.

Is the crash thread wrapped or on-going?

[personal profile] vae 2009-02-16 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
Ongoing! when the writers can all get back to it.

[identity profile] taffimai.livejournal.com 2009-02-16 09:21 am (UTC)(link)
Excellent! Please send my esteem to the others.
