Lucy and the FIN comemt
While I'm waiting for my FIN DVD to come, i take some time to download the FIN comment clip at "Xena 2010" site (has great video and audio clips of the show and Lucy interviews - if anyone wants the link is: www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/2275/mainpage.html)

Any way.... I'm one of the minority that love the FIN episodes, and after hearing the comments my appreciation for the show, actors, directors, stunts and crew had rise a lot. The conditions that this people when trought during those couple of weeks to deliver a show that should be on the big screen (that usually take months of filming). It was amazing! And is sad that people banish this people and everything they did, during 6 long years, just because they didn't like the ending or they didn't see what they wanted.

Another thing that i loved, was the fact that Lucy wasn't shy in praising the secondary actors, even the ones that didn't have a line, the stun people, her doubles, the lighting crew, the way she try to remember his or her name. And she wasn't shy in criticise her own acting, there isn't many actress that go and say that their performance in a given scene was the worse in the entire show, that never a performance was so badly done.

I love the interaction between the three of them, The way they talk about not just the acting but the technical stuff and the music.

well, i really Love this guys, and would Love to see them working together in a near future.

I have the DVD and it looks great and I agree with you. I liked it a lot. I also enjoyed the commentary of Lucy,ROC and Rob. I liked how all three had differing opinions on the same scene. It shows the diversity that exists with actors and directors. I like how it doesn't matter how you approach a scene but that the scene gets completed and everyone is pleased most of the time. It shows the great thing about everyone being different.

Agree with everything you say San and I'm not sure that the miniority is as small as some believe. Thanks for the comments.

I agree also, well said. And I truly believe there is a "rather large silent" minority - if that makes sense.

Thanks for the replay everyone.

Tobia and GL, I guess you 2 may be right, maybe we're not such a small group, we just aren't vocals enough.

San,

I am curous--you said:

<And is sad that people banish this people and everything they did, during 6 long years, just because they didn't like the ending or they didn't see what they wanted.>

I don't think there are many who FIN ruined the whole six year for. Who are you referring to?

Hi Irene

I didn't say that there were many people, i say there were people that let the end of the show affect the way they see the 6 years of the show, even going to the point to banishs previous work of Rob. Now...i didn't say either that this people were from this board (even if my memorie isn't plaing any tricks some of the coments were made in this board, not sure tru) and even if they are, those post are way back (some of them from when the Show ended, so i can't recite names, if that's what you want, and even if i knew, i wouldn't say them, the people who feel that way, know who they are, and even if i think that's unffair with the Xena crew and cast, this people are intitle of their opinions, the some way i'm intitle of mine.

Thanks San,

Those people must not post anymore. Can't wait till we have our one year anniversary on the message boards about FIN.

Re: Lucy and the FIN comemt
I agree with the orginal poster that after watching the behind the scenes video I am completely in awe of the hard work and dedication everyone connected with Xena showed in order to produce just one episode,and they did that for six years.Lucy and Renee both have my respect and admiration.There are still a few that post in the General Chat that dislike Lucy and expecially Rob for what they see as a betrayal of the 'fans'and characters and the series in general even from an early season but that is their right to do so,the message boards are for all.However what I would say is whether you loved it or hated it the ending in Fin was dramatic and it is still being talked about a year after Xena wrapped.For a show that was not on the main networks in America that is quite a feat. Are the endings of Voyger(sp) and hercules still discussed?

Re: Lucy and the FIN comemt
I havent been too silent in my many compliments to the wonderful and yes, big screen production of FIN. Equally I think you're very correct on Lucy being ever so expanded and complimenting the smallest of actors/actresses roles and all those having part to work on the series over the years. I always think of something Michael Hurst complimented by saying someone might just deliver icecream for everyone on the set and you'd know it was Lucy. He sum'd up her thinking of others very well in an interview I saw of him once and of course, Lucy always represents herself well indeed.

Take this challenge *Now* and leap over to the Opinion forum and give it your best shot ! Prizes are still pending.

IreneRenee,if you ever visit the fightclub I am afraid you will find many who dislike Fin and Rob quite vehmently,it is a heated discussion and it is probably best that the post are kept there.I personally do not believe that the majority of those that followed Xena are so disgusted with Fin, maybe it was not how they envisaged the ending but they still have respect and admiration for the cast and crew who worked extremly hard to bring us this unique piece of television.IMHO those that have a positive view of Xena are the silent majority and those that had a dislike of Fin and Rob are the vocal minority,again I stress this is just my opinion.
