More B7 - Killer

[fangrrl_squees]

I'm sorry, I can't tell you anything about the episode Killer because I was too busy shrieking at the godawful costumes to pay attention.

I can't find a screengrab, so you just have to imagine 1" sheet foam, covered in brown - or sometimes white - squeaky plastic and then quilted and folded like origami around the hapless actor. Awful, awful, awful.

I really need and omg, my eyes!-type icon for this viewathon...

Edited to add: and oh dear god, it's a troop of Michelen Men in white vinyl gimp masks. I seriously doubt the costuming can get any worse.

{snicker} The costumes in Killer are infamous, yes (me, I have a fondness for the cockroach capes myself). Which is a pity... but once you can drag your eyes away, Dr Bellfriar (who is gorgeous) and Tynus are well worth studying further, and the Avon&Vila stuff in the episode is great.

I agree, the Avon & Vila moments are, indeed, moderately fabulous in that eps - especially the *look* that passed between 'em when the subject of getting rid of Blake came up - but, damn, I had a hard time looking past those costumes.

Cockroach capes? I'll have to remember that!

he *look* that passed between 'em when the subject of getting rid of Blake came up - Like anyone believes Avon when he talks about it any more :)

It does rather reach the 'Good job, Wesley. I'll probably kill you in the morning' levels, doesn't it? ;)

The Michelin Men are worse than the Cockroaches! And hey, we get Vila in very tight black trousers (Vila's Killer trousers!) sprawled in an orange chair looking utterly delectable. Ahem.

[fangrrl-squees.livejournal.com]

True, that.

Whereas Avon's trousers were sadly naff.

(I'm watching Hostage now, whee!)

Oh and there are screencaps on Lisa's wonderful site. And here's killer Vila!

[fangrrl-squees.livejournal.com]

Damn! That *is* a good website! How did I not know of it before now?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

She hasn't got every ep up yet and she's still redoing the video ones fron DVD, but it's the best site for B7 caps.

If you search by character(s)--scroll to the bottom--you get just your selection in the first lot, and 'with others' in the second. :-)

Damn, Servalan is hot.

[fangrrl-squees.livejournal.com]

Indeed she is. Did you not know this already? ;)

It's been a very long time since I saw the show and like you, I didn't look at it with the eyes that I have now!

There's anti-hotlinking script in place, so all I'm getting is a 'please don't hotlink' image. Got an URL for me I can look at?

Ahh sorry about that - it worked on the preview (probably because the images were already cached). Should work now.


Jenna explains to shocked, naive Vila what the real purpose of what he's holding in his hand is.
