Mysti Reviews:
"Dreamland, Part I"
Oh. My. God. That was so funny.
First thought: SOMEONE AT 1013 HAS BEEN READING FANFIC. If any of you have read Covenant and it's sequel, who's title I can't exactly remember right now, you will see it too. In Covenant, Mulder swears to Scully he'll never leave her again, and then just then they are in a car wreck and he dies *sob* So his ghost hangs around. Anyway, they investigate these murders where the victims ARE FUSED WITH THINGS. With walls. With rocks. Then I'm watching Dreamland--and I see people fused. With floors. With rocks. I was like WHOA.
Anyway:
--Mulder didn't ditch Scully. He got a tip from an informant and track record tells us that in the past, he would run off and ditch her. But did he?? NO. YAY! Their relationship is developing.
--Scully later ditches "Mulder" to go work on something she's forbidden to. This shows how she's developed. She has the ability to ditch Mulder (maybe she should do it when Mudler is himself and give him a taste of his own medicine) and will break rules now. It's Don'tMessWithMe!Scully!
--That whole spiel at the beginning where Scully talks about having a normal life. This has long been fanfic stuff--that Scully truly wants a normal life. I think that Scully truly does want a "white picket fence" and stuff, but also enjoys her life with Mulder. I mean, she wasn't angsted or upset. She was just joking. But it shows that Scully wants to settle down. And who better with than Mulder??
--The whole thing was like Quantum Leap!! Realizing that made the whole show a lot easier to follow.
--Hmm. They addressed two MulderObsessions in this ep: Sunflower seeds...and the less savory porn habit. Hmm.
--I liked how the first thing Mulder asks for when he wakes up is Scully...and he talks in his sleep about her...TEEHEE!! Shippy!!
--Scully had some of the best facial expressions in this episodes. "What the hell"s, "Whatever"s, not to mention the looks of "WHAT" she threw "Mulder" in Kersh's office when he said he'd turn his source in. And not to mention the anger/jealousy when AD Kersh's assistant leaves Mulder's apartment...oh it was great.
--Alright, one of my big pet peeves of the episode: When trying to convince Scully of his Mulderality, Mulder could have come up with better things than her name. Like, quote the hallway. Or maybe the conversation in the car from Tooms. Or SOMETHING. It was as stupid as "Your mother's name is TEENA! Your sister's name is SAMANTHA!" from Kitsenguari. ::slap::
--Who liked BoxerShorts!Mulder?? :::raises hand:::
--ACK! I miss Vancouver!! Look at that sunny sky! The desert!! TUMBLEWEEDS, for god's sake! Vancouver!! Trenchcoats!! AAAHHHH.
--The bit in front of the mirror was intresting. It was slighly out of sync, but rather amusing. The dance had me ROTFL.
--Mulder and Scully's desks are right next to each other.
--I liked Scully yelling at Mulder that he is out of his mind and yelling that they need to get him examined. I was just waiting for her to hit him.
--You know the only reasons Morris doesn't want to go back to his body is because he's a chauvinist pig who wants to use Mulder's body to sleep with 90% of the secretarial pool. Oh, and I think he's the informant too.
