The 2009 Scoobie Awards
|
|||||||||||||||||
We had world saving heroes like James Marsters (Spike) and Nick Brendon (Xander) rubbing shoulders with big bads such as Harry Groener (The Mayor) and Mark Metcalf (The Master). The turn out was from one end of the spectrum to the other which was great to see! The categorise the star were nominated in reached from "And Whatever Happened To..." Award, which was won by Ethan Rayne (Robin Sachs), to the The Cockroach Award (best longest running character, which was taken by none other than Buffy herself (Sarah Michelle Gellar). Then we had the classic Best Actor and Actress nominations for each season and over all series. The night was hosted by the awards creator ArabellaElfie,
The night was not only attended by the stars we all know and love but many of the fans dropped by as well to show their appreciation and dedication to a show which is still so close to their hearts. Thanks was given to all how attended as they made the night as awesome as possible with their banter and their opinions on results. I think the cheers could be heard by those exploring at the bottom of the Sunnydale crater! We saw some heated, if slightly confusing, props betting between spikes_girl and ladolcevita early on in the night. The betting of kittens was thought to be a little too much no matter how appealing a currency they are. Or how much James C. Leary (Clem) and James Marsters argued the benefits of kitten gambling! Personally I'd rather have a cute kitten pet instead of Siamese kitten curry, not my favourite meal, but then I'm not demonic. !
Other fanpoppers however took advantage of the open bar causing both confusion and entertainment for all in attendance! After working her way through 'the white stuff' and 'the red stuff' Claire finally made it to 'the blue stuff', or so we were told.
Fanpoppers enjoyed many a discussion over winners announcements! Fanpoppers cheered, clapped and celebrated when many of the winners where announced. There was also a great deal of shock expressed and made known when Alyson Hannigan (Willow) was beaten out by Sarah Michelle Geller (Buffy) for Best Actress in the early seasons! But when James Marsters (Spike) won best actor for every best season actor category he was nominated in, cheers and screams could be heard from spike_girl and em_em by all around. There was of course The Honorary Mr. Pointy award (www.fanpop.com/spots/buffy-the-vampire-slayer/forum/po...092) which went to Mr Joss Wheadon him self, the man of the night, without whom there would be no Buffy the Vampire Slayer universe for us to enjoy and no reason for us to have come together for the Scoobie awards. What a tragically sad world that would be! ArabellaElfie was also presented with a special honorary award by spikes_girl and ladolcevita because of her excellent planning and organising skills and dedication. Throughout the night we all went a bit tangenty, but hey where is the fun in life without tangents?! We had a bit of Bangel bashing when it came to the best Bangel moments,a big long list of Spike shipping names from AgentCoop, ArabellaElfie, spikes_girl and em_em. We also had some slightly Supernatural related chat (causing some very big smiles on many people's faces) about who awesome some fans were, spike_girl, at guessing results before they were announced.
All conversation eventualy turned back to the matter in hand and after a fair few hours, round about 4 and a half hours in all, the Scoobies came to an end

awesome article em :D ♥
Yep next time less coloured 'stuff' for you maybe. Well unless the rest of us are joining you in the intoxication LOL :)
I missed it. The glamour, the awards, the sheer drunkenness. All because it would apparently be "unreasonable" of me to flake on prior commitments to attend an internet awards show. Some people and their ridiculous standards of etiquette
Great article em! I liked recounting the night =) Can't wait for the Shanshus!
I missed it. My life is over.
Stupid out-of-town-swimmeet and lack-of-computer hotel!
