Wow, I haven't been here in a while... Anyway, IStartA Fan War was... alright. I kinda just agree with what everyone else said, "the main plot was boring, Spencer vs. Jack Black was Epicness (which it was), Gibby and Guppy were annoying and pointless, etc... Aside from that though:
♦ I had a fangirl moment when Craig and Eric walked in. I was like, "OMG, IT'S THEM!!!!!! FROM DRAKE AND JOSH!!!!!!" And then Gavin made it even better. I love seeing characters from other shows make appearances. (well, that is if I know who they are) It feels like I'm seeing friends I never thought I'd see again.
♦ I loved the Aruthor vs. Aspartamay battle. I loved how they all knew so much about the other one's costume but each had fatal flaws on their own. The dialoque between Jack and Jerry was excellent. I honestly would like to see them try to do something like that, unscripted. Like a "Whose Line is it Anyway?" type thing? (Love that show) Anyway, I think the song was also quite catchy. I almost felt the need to put it on my Ipod.
♦ I thought it was a little weird (and a bit of a let-down) how they all already knew about seddie/creddie. Like when Carly's talking to Adam on her computer and she's like, "Yeah, Creddie shippers want me and Freddie to get together, and Seddie shippers want Sam and Freddie to get together" or whatever. Like,..cuz,...and...THEY'VE NEVER MENTIONED THIS BEFORE!?!?! You'd think they would've at least made it clear on their webshow that none of them were dating! I got the impression that they never knew! And I was looking forward to the moment when they would all find out and the awkwardness that would ensue... Oh well...
♦You gotta love how we were portrayed. "Oh, look, their elbows are touching...THAT MEANS THEY'RE IN LOVE!" If I remember right, people have actually said things along those lines on other forums. Wow. Also, I found it a little creepy that there were actual grown men there, but ... that's ICarly for ya.
♦ Why are people getting so worked up over Carly's speech? At first, I was mad too. Like, "How dare you tell us that we shouldn't ship fictional characters?" Because, for me, that's mostly why I watch the show. I mean, there's not many heartfelt moments orcharacter development like there is in other shows. ICarly is supposed to be all about comedy, but to me, it's not really that funny except for Spencer. When you use random humour too much it stops being random, and, stops being funny. The webshow itself is just pathetic too. C'mon, if ICarly were a real webshow hosted by normal kids, no one would watch it. The only really funny skits I can think of are "Great Moments in Kid History: The First Tantrum" and of course "Kelly Cooper: Terrible Movie" So yeah, at first Carly's speech annoyed me. I thought Dan was trying to tell us how stupid we are, but if you notice, the second Carly's done talking, people start right up again with the fanwar, making Carly's speech seem almost like nothing more than a gag, just like the one in that episode where everyone was crammed inside their apartment during the heat wave, when Carly makes the speech about how they should all just get along and then, as soon as the air conditioning comes back on, everyone pushes past eachother to get out. So, I don't really think it meant anything.
♦ And lastly,...Okay, so promise me we won't start a completely unrelated fanwar on an ICarly forum? Okay... so since Avatar (The Last Airbender) WAS a Nickelodeon show,...I was kinda hopin' someone would at least allude to the Kataang/Zutara shipping war, like one of the fans would say something like, "Well, at least we aren't as bad as the Zutarians and Kataangers..." Just like mutter it under their breath or something. I thought it would've been hilarious, don't you?I mean, they made allusions to Drake & Josh, right?
Anyway, review over, rant over, Evening_Haze: out.
