I've got a favor to ask of my brilliant and bounteous flist!

I have the most delighful vid bunny and I need your help: I would absolutely love it if everyone would comment with their favorite ladies of space and time travel.

I'm talking any sci-fi/fantasy movie (Contact, Hitchhiker's Guide, Star Trek, Supergirl, Barbarella, Star Wars, what else?) or television show (BSG, Stargate, Firefly, Doctor Who, and so many more!) with any element of space/time travel where it is the ladies DOING the badass stuff (not just sitting and looking cute with the maincharacterdude while he does badass stuff): Wormholes and time machines and spaceships galore! ( I think I've got the ladies of BSG pretty much covered, but I would really like help with... )

Tell me your faves! Don't be afraid to mention specific characters or scenes. I need your help to make the awesomest vid ever :)

I don't think I quite watched all 74

festivids vids before my brain gave out but there were a LOT to oooh and aaah over!!! Here are my favorites before the reveals list goes live on Sunday :)

It's been months since I made a vid recs post. [And what better what to proscrastinate on actually vidding than in rewatching recent faves for "inspiration"]

( Vid Recs: Leverage, Psych, SPN, BSG, and True Blood )

( J2 Fic and Podfic Recs )

Now your turn! Recs for me please :)

( Vivid Con rec list so far--mostly Club Vivid because that's where my vidding heart lies )

( And a few other recent vid gems )

There is also the matter of my inexpressible SQUEE to discover that Acceptable in the Eighties was played at Club Vivid this year. That pretty much made my decade :)

Recs!

( My favorite J2 bigbangs so far--20 recs behind cut )

( SPN Fanart recs )

( SPN, multi/misc, and BSG vid recs )

Phew, one summer's worth of recs :) I absolutely CANNOT wait for vividcon vids to start showing up soon, yayyyyy!!!!

What about you guys? Seen/read/watched anything awesome that I should check out?

I'm ALL for more sci-fi/fantasy/supernatural TV shows, believe me.

( But Vampire Diaries, really? )

All in all, I'm with

sundancekid. I know everyone is riding the vampire-mania of Twilight in the entertainment industry, but how about some hot werewolves or hot zombies or something else.

Or really, I would just be happy with more supernatural romance stories/books/shows/movies where the sexy, dangerous supernatural character is the female protagonist and SHE has to figure out how to navigate her strength and sexuality around a mortal man (like Blood and Chocolate!!!).

I'm pretty good on scared/weak mortal girls and sexy/dangerous supernatural boys for right now ;)
