Heavens no, that's not what I meant at all. Sorry if I gave that
impression. As ZK said, frivolity is big business and a good
distraction. No doubt we'd all welcome a light discussion, or perhaps a
good ol' fashioned drool-fest.
I was speaking only for myself, feeling rather overwhelmed by the pervasive
atmosphere of anger & tension. It seems everywhere I look, in RL and
on-line, folks are arguing. The volume of rhetoric from all camps is
deafening.
I just don't have the energy or desire for a debate right now. If I did,
it would be directed at the most important topic of the day, which is not
fanfic.

Fred Astaire was my first crush. I longed to wear beautiful gowns and to
dance as gracefully as Ginger Rodgers. Sadly, I'm a complete klutz and
can't carry a tune. Oh well, maybe in my next life.

According to the TVGuide listings PW is going to be on `John Doe' March
21st. This is the episode description they had-
John Doe- Doe or Die
A former Internal Affairs cop who was fired for evidence tampering takes
the precinct hostage and threatens to unleash a biological weapon. Rothman:
Peter Wingfield. Marques: Darcy Laurie. Janitor: Alonso Oyarzun. Ruiz:
Tony Plana. Cola Guy: Jim Shield. Pizza Guy: Dexter Bell. Bio Commander:
Simon Longmore. Roosevelt: David Parker. Avery: Jayne Brook. Stella: Rekha
Sharma.
For those of you who watch the series, is it any good? I saw an episode
or two when the series first started but haven't really watched since then.

Subject: PW in X2
Hey everyone.
As long as we're into Wingfield sightings, I might as
well point out something that I don't think anyone has
mentioned yet. PW plays a minor role somewhere in
"X-Men 2", playing a character named Lyman, I think.
I have no idea who this person is, or where he is in
the film, so I guess we'll have to keep our eyes open.

Yup. According to the PWFC site:
Peter has just announced that he has a role in the next X-Men movie.
Here's what he told the club:
/I am playing the bad guy's henchman in “X-2” (The second “X-Men” movie;
director Brian Singer, starring Halle Berry, Hugh Jackman, Patrick
Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming etc.) Haven’t seen a script yet but
I think I am around a lot but rarely speaking—the audition was three
scenes and a total of 5 lines./
Posted 17 June 2002
The movie is due out in May 2, 2003. Peter will play Lyman, a henchman
to Stryker, played by Brian Cox.

There are pictures of him during filming floating around on the web. (I've lost the link) I've also half thought of picking up the novelization, which I've seen out, in part to see how much screen time he might be getting.

He is standing alone, center screen, up very close to the camera, face
blackened with soot or some such thing, it is a dark shot around the middle
of the trailer and he turns his head to the right [our left] and there is
that tell tale nose :)

Subject: Re: PW in X2--see Starlog for pic
Starlog magazine, current issue/#309/April/X-Men cover, has a photo on page
67 that seems to be a production still from the film. It shows a group of
soldier types, & PW is on the right side. The light managed to catch both
his nose & his Adam's apple.... Everyone else in the shot is rather ugly, &
they look pissed off; he looks bored. And hot.

No-he's wearing camo fatigues in this photo, like most of the rest of the
group. And I didn't mean THAT kind of hot, anyway..

Stupid questions:
What is Stryker's mutation/power/ablility? (Don't know X-Men so I
don't know the proper term.)
Is Stryker a good guy or a bad guy?
If Peter is his henchman, does that mean he's a mutant too?
Who is Brian Cox?

Stryker doesn't have any mutant power. He's a military-man with a loathing
for mutants who seeks to use the rising anti-mutant hystria to gain
politcial advantage for his cause. A different variation of the character
appeared in the X-Men graphic novel God Loves, Man Kills. There Stryker was
a militant evangalist. It's an amazing piece of work and worth ordering from
Amazon or your local comic shop. Probably one of the best comic-stories I've
read in 20 years.
> If Peter is his henchman, does that mean he's a mutant too?
Unlikely, but............;)
> Who is Brian Cox?
Brian Cox is a great veteran British actor. (Adopts Simpsons voice...)You
may have seen him in such films as The 25th Hour, The Mothman Prophecies,
The Boune Identity, Braveheart (and Rob Roy) and Adaptation - to name but a
few.
