XD Have I seen Persuasion? Love, I've seen nearly every Austen movie (Pride and Prejudice, Persuasion, Northanger Abbey, Mansfield Park, Emma, Sense and Sensibility) plus others related to Jane Austen (Becoming Jane and Lost in Austen) Of all the other Austen adaptations, I've seen both the miniseries and movies of them *nod nod*
To break it down for you (although I did write an entry of an opinion from most, it has spoilers): Pride and Prejudice is awesome, though the miniseries wins because it covers more ground, but the movie does select the best scenes to tug at your heartstring with. Persuasion is much better with the miniseries, even though the movie addresses what the miniseries doesn't (a better display of the character's emotions instead of keeping you in the dark for so long), the directing is BAD (whoever thought it a good idea to show only ONE character's face in the middle of a dialogue... dude, two people are talking, let me SEE them BOTH). Northanger Abbey is ADORABLE (only a movie of it, I think, thus far) and I LOVED it. Mansfield Park, stick to the miniseries, because for me, the movie was... nyaaaaaa. Emma... miniseries covers more ground and is thus better, but the movie does summarize the best bits. Now, Sense and Sensibility... again, the miniseries does cover more ground (and did I mention the duel between the Colonel and the VILE Willoughby? *.* Duuuuuude), but the movie has a different approach I preferred (how the Colonel first met Marianne is waaay more epic in the movie).
So, yes, I've seen Austen movies. Many. All. Who knows?
Hmmm... I don't remember ever reading Labyrinth fic... maybe just one or two, but it was so long ago and yes, it was lacking *le sigh*
Very good questions. Who knows? I mean, I think they ARE real... as real as she lets them be.
Yeah, well, if you HADN'T spoiled yourself on her DEATH, that episode (where she dies) would've made you jump through the roof (leaving your socks behind) and when you descended from the sky, you'd still be blinking "WTF" until you recovered the ability to speak and then, you'd yell out, "JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" (That's what I did, in a nutshell)
