Friday Night Fangirl Fight: Volume III - DIMPLES!  
Yes, it's back and a few days early! Technically, this is Wednesday night fangirl fight, but since it is a short week in the U.S. and it's Canada Day today, I thought, well, it's almost Friday. Close enough. This week's fangirl fight might make some of you hate me, but I am expecting that. Believe me, even I don't know who I would vote for. I might have to flip a coin. As usual, please adhere to the following rules. Just be nice. That's all I ask.

Rules of Conduct:
1. The gist:
Imagine yourself at a friend of a friend's party. You mingle with other guests, strike up some conversations, and generally get along with everyone else even if they might not share the same opinions as you do on everything. You don't go ripping on people for having a different view of something, jumping up and down on the couch and calling them stupid. Same rule applies here. Be respectful, agree to disagree when differences present themselves, and never ever make things personal.

2. Don't be a jerk:
Don't start your comments with words like "this may offend some people", "you're so wrong and ...", or anything similar. Nine times out of ten, those words precede a snotty correction directed at another someone else. It's rude, don't do it. Don't talk down to your fellow commenters, don't lecture them, and don't state your opinion as fact.

3. Don't harp on why the other choice is so terrible
Don't build your opinion of your choice up by tearing the other down. If you spend one sentence on why your pick is awesome and fifteen sentences on why the other choice is horrible .. that's what I'm talking about. "I picked X and now I'm going to rant about why Y SUCKS!"

4. Don't bring other fights to this post
I realized that a few people brought debates going on in other people's comms and journals about the poll to comments here. Please don't bring fights going on elsewhere here. Stick to debating comments left in this journal.

5. DON'T ATTACK FANDOMS!
For the love of god, do not single out any fandoms! Do not resort to grouping an entire fandom block into a bunch of adjectives. Don't call fans of something you don't like stupid, childish, dumb, etc. Do not. This last point will get your ass BANNED from ever commenting on my journal again. I'm serious.

Have I scared you all away? Ha. The only thing you really need to remember is just don't be a dick and you will be fine.

The Battle of the Super-Cute Dimples.

SpyBarbie. No other spy comes close to matching Sydney's skills (sorry, Sarah Walker). Her greatest assets, her dimples. I am sure they are deadlier than her glock and left hook combined.

SuperAssistant of awesome! Natalia Rivera will be the best assistant you will ever have just don't fall in love with her. She can disarm any resistance with one well timed smile. To resist would be illogical.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm too angry at GL to vote for the most fertile woman in Springfield. I fear if I vote for her I might become pregnant. It's been known to happen.

Team Dimples votes for Leccia!

I feel like a bit of a cheat, as I've never seen Alias, and only seen the woman who plays Syndey in one film, so I don't really know the power of her dimples. But, and this is a big but, Natalia is the first person, real or fictional, to make me notice dimples and go all 'Awww, so damn cute'. So, that's my long-arsed way of saying, I vote Natalia.

I want to kill GL atm but no way I wouldn't vote for JL/Natalia in a battle of Dimples. Aaaaah, omg, seriously, she's so lovely. ♥

I feel like printing that montage and putting it on my wall or something for when I feel bad. IT'S SO PRETTY AND ADORABLE. Good job, bb.

DUELING DIMPLES! This makes me sooooo happy. Must study all the pics before I commit. BS
bsofthewest: Boo Ya Kris/Chi[info]bsofthewest on July 1st, 2009 10:45 pm (UTC)
Don't throw things at me, but I have been totally in love with Sydney Bristow since the first episode. Those dimps looked fab in all her kick ass identities. Gah, tight skirts, guns ablazing and karate chopping chiseled arms were only enhanced by that face. Perhaps if I had seen Natalia before she got "real life" preggers, but I have only seen her sweet normal face in the YouTube vids. Sorry, I fell for Sydney's dimples long ago and haven't recovered.
Diana: Syd[info]dianawnt8 on July 2nd, 2009 11:53 pm (UTC)
yea i think JL's dimples were more visible after little lola showed up, where as Jay Gee has always had them in full bloom, pre violet and all. (hmm i wonder if my kid has a J name they will have dimples too)
baby_c15: BAM; love[info]baby_c15 on July 1st, 2009 09:48 pm (UTC)
Ah, I watched Alias, a couple of times but... this is the first time I realize Sidney has dimples. Yeah... I have no excuse. Is clear I have to vote for Dimples.
Gala.: Arrested Development [Sheep][info]sixphanel on July 1st, 2009 09:52 pm (UTC)
Oh no!! I can't believe Syd's dimples are losing ♥♥♥ C'mon people! XD

XDDD That Lemon gif is the best lol.
the_girl_20: Cheryl[info]the_girl_20 on July 1st, 2009 09:52 pm (UTC)
My own personal favourite set of dimples weren't included:



So I went with GL purely based on the pics because I have no ties to either.

Win.



Omg, the battle should have been Natalia x Cheryl.
set the recorder to one: ga: chezza[info]sword_fire on July 1st, 2009 10:19 pm (UTC)
YES. Although, which one I would vote for I have NO idea. Cheryl's dimples are way too cute.
miss super-duper crime-fighting goody two-shoes: music: girls aloud ● honey[info]awaltzforanight on July 1st, 2009 10:32 pm (UTC)
I would probably wait until the last minute and then vote for whoever was losing.

I'm that kind.
the_girl_20: Cheryl/Nadine[info]the_girl_20 on July 2nd, 2009 05:28 pm (UTC)
CHERYL ALL THE WAY!!!

(How could you consider voting against Cheryl???!??!)
set the recorder to one: x factor: cheryl and her lulz[info]sword_fire on July 2nd, 2009 11:18 pm (UTC)
I think I would have to think long and hard about who I would vote for.

Then I would vote for Cheryl anyway 'cause she is Queen C after all and pwns everyone and everything ever.

So yeah, IA. Cheryl all the way. :D

(I don't think I actually could vote against Cheryl, if that helps?)

Even tho GL is SERIOUSLY pissing me off right now, I couldn't let Natalia suffer for it. Dimples FTW!
the_hero_factor: natalia2[info]the_hero_factor on July 1st, 2009 09:58 pm (UTC)
Dimples! I mean...Natalia!
Vita Wong: giggle[info]ladyvictory on July 1st, 2009 10:13 pm (UTC)
That is a really, really tough call, but I gotta give it to the Latina. She kills with the dimples, Sydney uses them to distract, then she kills you with something else...
Mel[info]rowan1879 on July 2nd, 2009 05:42 pm (UTC)
Yes, that was pretty much my reasoning. Sydney is admittedly kick-ass and Jennifer Garner is adorable. But, Natalia got Olivia-freakin-Spencer to move in with her just by smiling at her and flashing those dimples. Natalia's dimples are her greatest weapon. Her cookies and other baked goods are second. Also, I would want to hang out with Sydney. All I want to do is just sit and look at Natalia. So, yeah, she wins.

Totes Natalia/JL. No question. :D
nnnjtu[info]nnnjtu on July 1st, 2009 10:35 pm (UTC)
OMG this was really hard too choose. I think I only went for Natalia because I know the context behind the dimples.

That said, omg that gif is crackin' me up so much! I CANNOT STOP WATCHING! *giggle* SO GREAT!
amluv: natty[info]amluv on July 1st, 2009 11:19 pm (UTC)
gotta go w/ natty on this cuz she's so gosh darn cute. i love syd, but super spies need to be badass and not cute and we all know that dimples=cute the 9th power.
El Pearso: Miscellany :: Amour[info]semisquare on July 1st, 2009 11:32 pm (UTC)
Oh wow. This is an incredibly difficult decision. I think I'm gonna have to spring for Super Spy! Sydney because I've had a few too many extended Alias marathons not to vote for Syd. (I have to do my 8th grade self proud.)
dutch38: peanut butter n'natalia[info]dutch38 on July 2nd, 2009 12:18 am (UTC)
Ok, even though GL makes me want to punch myself in the face right now, I voted Team Natalia simply because we get sad dimples, mad dimples, annoyed dimples, I-Love-Olivia dimples, and even peanut butter n' dimples. An Otalia episode is total dimple porn.

Meg: no regrets[info]nut_meggers on July 2nd, 2009 12:28 am (UTC)
Wow, despite the Otalia downturn, we just can't quit JL. But who could? THOSE DIMPLES. All I have to do is watch this and any dimples that have come before, vanish.

ndasky1[info]ndasky1 on July 2nd, 2009 02:08 am (UTC)
I'm Leccia'd for life so have to say Jessica has killer dimples. :-)
Sandy: otalia-love[info]th0u_art_that on July 2nd, 2009 04:30 am (UTC)
I'm mad at Natalia right now for being pregnant, but her dimples do own my soul, so she gets my vote.

Sydney Bristow, hands down.

PS: You can't read my poker face

NATALIA
... will forever be my Dimple Goddess.

after seeing today's Otalia episode, watching this freakin genius of a video saved my life from the trainwreck-pregnancy storyline, for now.

Cory: IRM Logo[info]queenmaharet on July 2nd, 2009 06:52 am (UTC)
ZOMG. This is so hard. If you would have asked me this question two weeks ago, my response would have been swift & precise: Natalia.

Now? I actually had to think about it. *blink*

Ultimately, I went with the same choice (so long as I ignore her uterus and the evil baby that makes her lie... a lot), but only because my adoration for Jack & Irina eclipsed Syd back in the day. I loved Sydney, but I also often wanted to smack her in the head. Mainly because of Vaughn (must refrain from using the... erm, term of endearment we often spouted). Ha. What can I say? I'm a "Drunken Toaster" for life. ;-)

Although, that pic from "The Abduction" -- first column, third row? KILLS ME STILL. Guh. "I was a fool to think that any ideology could come before my daughter." Deaddeaddead. THAT'S the Irina I loved and believed in -- not the fucktastic caricature they rolled out for the series finale. Ack.

Yep. Still bitter.

As much as I looove Natalia, Sydney has to win this one!!
Soph: chuck - sarah[info]s0phi4 on July 2nd, 2009 01:09 pm (UTC)
Sydney Bristow! My thirteen-year-old self totally fell in love with her dimples, and would never forgive me if I didn't vote for her *g*
Jay: Oh Shit..[info]jay00789 on July 2nd, 2009 01:38 pm (UTC)
GAHHHHH! Who to choose!?!? Who to choose?!?

Umm.... I can't do it!

Okay okay time to make a choice...

Eeny meenie miny mo..
Diana: Syd[info]dianawnt8 on July 2nd, 2009 11:49 pm (UTC)
THIS.IS.SO.HARD buuuuuuuuut i cant betray my first love. come back, Syd. come back! :'(
Taryn: [tv] GL (EPIC UNF)[info]ripptyd on July 3rd, 2009 04:51 am (UTC)
Despite how much I want to sucker punch GL in the kidneys right now, I have to vote Natalia. HAVE TO.

I don't know it's because we've been watching the dimples deepen as she's gotten bigger and bigger due to little Ivy. But it feels like the dimples have gotten better and better as time has gone by.

Plus... she kills me when she does that scrunchy thing with her mouth, twisting to one side, so only one dimple comes out. GAH.
