Poll: Do you see Marten and Dora's relationship lasting?

<< < (10/24) > >>

tomart:
I used to think popular culture should be beneath us intellectuals.  That was before Steppenwolf (the Hesse version) before someone's Popular Culture series on NPR, and before our subculture began begatting major feature films.

Of course, Britney, Tomkat, Bennifer and the like continue to be beneath us.

Love Dune and Bloom County, but I missed out on the Buffyverse; I only discovered Josh [edit: Joss] with Firefly. Should I go back now and experience BtVS at my age?

Oh, the topic, right.  ...Yes, I see it lasting.

Good lord, yes. You're never too old for Buffy. (The series, anyway.)

If you're lucky, you might be able to find the complete series (all seven seasons) in one box for a reasonable price. I bought mine at Costco a few years back for about $130.

If you've got the cash the spare, I would suggest it. Push yourself past the cheese and corn of the first season (and a little of the second). This series really expands and develops to a really well done series.

Edit: This is the box I'm referring to.

Switchblade:
I don't see why it couldn't. Marten, for all his inability to be truly assertive is generally an honest and truthful bloke - if he says something, he means it.

Dora has a few insecurities, but who doesn't?


I've seen people settle down with partners who really weren't right for them (or at least didn't seem that way from the outside). There's no reason that QC's resident black-tipped matchsticks couldn't do perfectly well together.

at the pace that they age in the strip, their relationship will outlast Spiderman and Mary Jane. As well as Archie never deciding which girl to choose between Betty and Veronica. Hell, on that one, Id keep both too!!

More power to Archie!

Grimmy
wonders what it would take to be a serious boyfriend to a "raven" character.

(case in point, I dated a girl who was also "lacking in the common sense department" and it didnt work out.)

Uh, Spider-man kind of sold his marriage to Satan. Seriously, probably not the best comparison, there.
