So what kind of music does everyone here like? Just so I can get a feel for everyone's tastes maybe so I won't be terribly off in the video lol.

I'm a Fray guy myself, but I enjoy every sort. I'm sure you'll choose the best song in the end.

Well, the thing is, the song's lyrics fit so perfectly with her character it's eerie lol, and it's not heavy metal or rap or techno lol. Just...I don't know, maybe pop-rockish?

I think that's a good middle road. Even people who don't necessarily listen to that type of music won't be bothered  by it and might even like it. I personally thought "If You Could Only See" by Tonic had perfect lyrics for Miranda/Shep. There's also "The Dolphin's Cry" by Live.

I tend to like a bit of everything though so my tastes aren't very discriminating.

 Thanks for letting me relive that scene Delta, too bad I don't recognize the impersonating Shepard haha.

I'll be recording it. I have to catch up on the 2nd and 3rd seasons before watching it. I don't know whether to be happy or sad about that.

One of the things that I absolutely enjoy about this thread is how personal it is.

I know there are a lot more Miranda fans out there - but there is only about 10-15 of us that frequent this thread (Meg, Shinobi, Vince, Me, etc) who constantly appear in this thread and show their support for a very well written character.

Now, I understand this is a "looove" thread - and I will return to loving this amazing woman after I give a couple of observations that I've made.

For those few of us who love Miranda, one of the main things we managed to do is look past the stereotype that many branded on the woman before the game was even released.

She was a genetically modified woman who was intended to be "perfect" - off the bat, that sent off a lot of wrong signals to many gamers. Perfect woman? Well, looking at past games who went with that model - the character was very poorly written and only used to be eye candy.

She's an ice queen. Okay, pair that with a "perfect" woman thing and you'll have people jumping to conclusions about it being cliched.

I think many of the Miranda haters out there either completely avoided Miranda, didn't pay attention to the verbal tones and body language that changed over the course of the game, or who were so against her in the first place that they refused to give her a chance - as the reason why there are so few of us compared to the other LIs.

Most of the people in this thread however - understood that - and moved past it.

We realized that even she reconigzes that her body was paid for - and instead of shying away from it - she embraces it and uses it to her advantage. That, to me, was a sign of a woman who will use what she has readily availible to advance herself.

She is an ice queen for a reason, and her "perfect" body, is a main reason for it. Her focus is on the mission - pure and simple - and she will do whatever to get it done. She is a dedicated woman - and if she has to be an arse about it - so be it, as long as the mission gets accomplished.

I think another big turn off for a lot of people is the percieved stereotype of "Ice Queen Melting" - and it is an understandable reason, though I don't think it should be a drastic one. Most of the 'melting" that is done in video games is poorly written - where in this case, it's quite the opposite.

I agree with your points but abit sad you didn't mention me,I contribute to this thread too.

Don't worry JSkills, there are lots of people who contribute to the thread and I'm sure Rathias was doing his best to recognize as many as he could.

(But Rathias, man--the OP doesn't get an honorable mention? C'mon, man )

None of us could forget about the founding father ComTrav haha. Without him our little group here could not have come to be.

Probably a dumb question, but if I started watching it tonight, exactly how lost would I be?

Also, does Strahovski remind anyone else of Sophia Myles, or is it just me?

Heh, that's cool. We don't feel intimated or anything, there's no reason everybody shouldn't have a chance to love their favorite characters and talk about them. Really, I'm happy for any Tali fan

This is an official LOOOOOOVE thread. No hatin to be found here.

In all honesty really not that much. Chuck has been a great show to jump on at any point.
