I had to check out the page - wonderful job wednesday! So many avatar options from those gifs. I have the theme song stuck in my head from bingeing S1 recently. It's too hard to choose a favorite Musketeer! They all have good qualities and different fighting styles and ways with the women. I like that it's set outside so often, and the sets and action scenes are awesome! So what type of horses are they riding shoe20, you poor persecuted leftie? I'll be back once I catch up! Hurry, your butt up girl. I expect you to be caught up in two wks.... You ask about the horses.....in the mid 1600 France they were probably using Norman Cob's a breed of light draft horse. The actual horses used in production had to come from around Prague, because that's where their filming the series. They resemble a Kladruber (the oldest breed in the Czech republic) but also the Dutch Warmblood breeds very popular in Europe.........The point is their a mix of draft and the more refined Thoroughbred...... If you look down at their feet, an many you will see long hair around the fetlocks, which indicates more "Tinker Pony" (draft horse.) The Musketeers road trucks.... not sports cars. Two weeks no problem. I'm already watching S2 as of last night. Wow, you do know your horses shoe20. I know they're pretty. I noticed the long hair b/c it reminded me a little of the Budweiser horses at Christmas. Nowhere near as much hair but it's noticeable. Thanks for the info.

Here's the Q & A.... wednesday....hahah Rather than quote and scroll, I'll C & P your questions..(try something new. I agree it was the best ep this season.... by far. Your best moment gifs were my choice too.... That was a really tender moment... Please tell me their not going to put Anne and Rochefort together... I'm not sure I can handle that. lololol I wonder if Constance will put 2 and 2 together and figure out that Aramis is the father.Of course, I think she already has.... My guess Rochefort is going to put it together too..... (what a snake) You gotta love a villain you can really hate.... I wonder how Anne would feel if she knew he was sleeping with Marguerite?I think that's coming and I don't think she'll be too pissed, because she'll know right away why he was doing it..... Marguerite is not the sharpest knife in the drawer...... I did think it was cool Aramis told her the truth when she ask..... He's an honest womanizer.... I can't believe that they demoted Treville!! Will he still be a Musketeer? Who's going to be the Captain?That was a shocker about Treville, didn't see that coming.... He will always be a musketeer, silly goose.... and there's no doubt Rochefort will be put in charge....it's too juiciy to pass up....it will also be the cause of his downfall... Then again maybe he won't want it, because it's better to snipe from the outside. Do you think they're being too over the top with him being bad? (Rochefort)Absolute not, their working him up to be one of the best villains on TV..... What a kinky dude...choke his "Anne wana be" ho....and then kiss her.....the guy's bad to the bone...hahaha Treville let it out that he does know something about Porthos's father!We already knew that from his convo with General De Foix (yep, had to look it up. lol) But now Porthos knows too.... I have a feeling it's someone really inportant.... at first I thought it might be Treville, but I don't think so now. Do you believe Athos is still in love with Milady? Actually, I believe Milady is more in love with him.... She did have a heart to heart at the end of the ep with Athos and told him she'd changed.... She said the same thing to Rochefort.... I think she just uses her body to get what she wants.... She had a chance to kill Athos at his house and several times sense... Of course Athos still cares, but he doesn't trust her.(I wonder why?... Do you think she's (Marguerite) really going to spy on the queen?Absolute.... No vengeance like a woman scorned .... On top of that I think Rochefort is going to push her to set up Aramas.
OK, the lightening round. Did they kill both the men in the carriage?......YES Do you think the doctor has a crush on Constance?.......NO Louis is an absolute idiot!.....and then some...what a putz... I cant believe how renigs on his promises... I wonder how many rulers were just as bad? lol I felt really sorry for that girl Emilie. Being betrayed by her mother like that. .... Me too, but it made a great story line..... I think the boys didn't arrest the rock thrower because it was late in the day and they didn't want to do the paperwork. lol I think I got em all.... Let me know how it reads and if you have more..... "Answers are cheap...Correct answers will cost ya" I'll leave ya with a couple of gifs I liked from the ep..... Later BB

shoe20 Ok is it just me or is Anne getting a little bold with showing her feelings toward Aramis? When she was in the tent with him she was the one who initiated the kiss, wouldn't you agree? Anyone could've walked in and did! Constance. And when they went back to the palace she was practically mooning over him holding his hand, (which frankly I loved) but I worry for Aramis!!! Do you think it's because Louis is flaunting Milday if front of everyone and she doesn't care now? That crazy obsessive psychopath Rochefort is watching her like a hawk and now has Aramis on his radar since he's now gone to Marguerite and is blackmailing her to spy on the queen! Someone needs to catch on to him quick and put a stop to his meddling. I'd love it if Constance and Anne started covering for each other so they could go see D'artagnan and Aramis!! Kiki had a question about Milday. What does she want from Louis. Of course she does it for the power she gets as the King's mistress but what does she want with this power. What's her goal? I think she's using it to have protection. Before she met him she was having to rough it living in the woods with bandits doing petty crimes. What do you think? Anne being all bold for all the world to see! You'd have to be blind not to see these two have feelings for each other! Most of this I covered in the Q&A post, but yes, Anne has reached the I don't give a crap stage..... And Louis the putz put her there.... That was a good scene with her and Constance talking about Milady's bedroom tricks. We know Rochefort is going to zoom in on this like a hawk... he won't even need Marguerite's blackmail for that.... He's gona be bonkers because he already has a Damon obsession on Anne.... I mean come on a live blow-up doll complete with lines... OMG If I hadn't already seen Santiago was in all the episodes on IMDB, I'd be worrying for his head. lol I really like your idea about Consance and Anne having each others backs so they can sneak off for a little fun time with the boys. I think the only Musketeer that knows right now is Athos, but it won't be long before Porthos and D'a know too.... the guys are getting too close Kiki's question...... I really think Milady's dalliance with Louis is all about security and protection...... If she'd had a few more bedroom sessions with Louis in the bag, Rochefort might have paid for slamming her in the wall...... It must be like tutoring a child... I just don't see "Louis the Lover" being a force in the universe.

shoe20 Thank you for answering my Q&A! I think we did this style before with TW! I like it so we can continue with it! I know how much you love my novels! The thought of Anne and Rochefort together makes me want to I don't think that will happen because she's still in love with Aramis. I actually think she will care he's been carrying on with Marguerite. Remember how jealous she got of Ninon last season when he gave her the necklace. That was before anything even happened between them. Who do you think really initiated the relationship between the two of them? Aramis or Anne? He did save her and there was a spark after that obviously. She gave him her necklace, he gave her "the stare." After that there were some looks between them, but they seem to come from Anne to me and of course Aramis being who he is wasn't exactly going to say no. Then when they were at the convent, I think she totally put the moves on him! He was grieving for Isabelle and she came in the other room and "comforted" him. Now obviously he could have said no, but there had always been an attraction between them, but I always felt like she pursued him. What do you think? Sorry I kinda strayed there, but I always wanted to get others opinion on their relationship. I know she might understand why he did sleep with Marguerite, but I still think it's going to hurt her. As for Marguerite, she can't really hold it against Aramis too much because he was upfront with her on where they stand as far as how he feels about her. If she figures out he was just using her to see his son, that's a whole other ballgame. She'd really have to be an idiot not to since he always asks about the baby. I don't love to hate Rochefort! I just hate him! He gives me the creeps and he's a total psycho and sicko!!! He's getting away with too much IMO. Someone needs to get a clue to what he's up to. I miss the Cardinal. He was someone I loved to hate. He did some horrible things, but it was always for France. I liked his relationship with Louis and Treville. Louis may have still been an idiot, but he was more likable last season. He was actually on the Musketeers side and always questioning the Cardinal. I'm tired of him ranting and raving at the Musketeers every episode. If Rochefort does become the captain of the Musketeers heaven help them. I think the doctor might have a crush. He was giving her a little smile, but I could be wrong. I like him so I hope we get to see more of him. I hope Athos is over Milady. He seemed to have put her behind him after he dropped her necklace in the finale. I just think he's struggling having her back when he thought his past was buried. She's changed my foot! She killed the ambassador! Roshefort isn't going to let that go. I'm sure it is like tutoring a child for Milady with Louis. I thought Aramis would've told Porthos about his son considering how close they are, but I think he might keep it to himself to protect his son. The fewer people who know the better or he might think if they did know they could help protect him. I'm curious to see how it will play out. I thought Treville might be Portho's father too. I'm looking forward to more of that. I loved those scenes of Constance and D'artagnan and demand more. ASAP!!! I want see to Anne and Aramis talk about their son! How'd you like your video I posted for you? I'm bummed we don't have an episode this Friday, but we did get a renewal for a 3rd season so that make me very happy! We also have HOD on Friday! That should help!

wednesday.....First, thanks a bunch for the vid of D'A and Constance....it was great. Bummer there's no Ep this week. I've been looking up some stuff on Alexandre Dumas's "The Three Musketeers". It's inspired 18 films and 7 before 1950... That's not counting the 8 squeals. I've watched all the recent stuff, but I'm trying to locate some of the early films..... I can't think of any story that has been filmed that much, can you? That's gotta be some kinda record. I agree with you that Anne and Rochefort together would be City...... I don't think they'll go there either.... He did tell her he love her in the bedroom scene and then glossed over it when she wasn't receptive...... Still I think he will at some point try to "blackmail" her charms or just force himself on her..... He's too far gone down the obsession path to turn back now. lol Who do you think really initiated the relationship between the two of them? Aramis or Anne?I think both had their moments to push it forward, but for me it all started with the "I've got you" moment when he was protecting her (haha) at the prison. I found a 6 pack of those pics last night and couldn't find em again, but you know what I'm talking about......I can't believe everyone doesn't know about them with the looks they give each other. and this one's for you, but knowing you you've already seen it. lol Rochefort is a snake..... He reminds me a lot of Damon. He won't be the new captain because he'd be too far removed from Louie and Anne's side and power... I think the psycho "grand plan is to be "King"....just like he told the Spanish Ambassador. I do miss the Cardinal... he was a kinder gentler A-hole (side note...did you know during filming of the finale, Peter Capaldi dislocated his thumb during an 'overenthusiastic' take... ) This series does have a big turnover of actors outside the core players... I don't think Athos will ever totally have Milay out of his system.... He punished himself for 5 yrs for the decision he had to make about hanging her............. Then she pops back up in his life and he can't seem to get rid of her... Before I loose em here are Constance and Anna from last ep... they're pretty together and I liked the scene I know I'm not as "Giffy" as you Milady, but I've been schooled by the best. lololol My question for you....... Who is the bigger putz..... Louie or Bonacieux "Mr Drapes"? That's a tough one.

shoe20 Nice job on the gifs! I hope we get some more great Anne and Constance scenes. I loved it when Anne was consoling Constance after her nightmare. You know how I am so my thoughts and answers will be all over the place! Season 1 to Season 2, but I know you can keep up! I'm glad you liked the video of Constance and D'artagnan. I do love them, but tend to have more Aramis & Anne since he's my favorite but I'll try to work on that. I'm sure you'll make up for my shortcomings. What you won't see a lot of is Milady. I'm not really a fan. She's bad news for our dear Athos. You're right about his feelings for her though. He was haunted by what he thought he did to her. I do hope he can put her behind him and not let her get inside his head. I loved Ninon last season, but we'll save that for another discussion. That is amazing with the story! If you look at the link I posted previously for Aramis at the bottom it lists all the actors that have portrayed him on screen in some way since 1911 if you want to take a look at the list of movies. There have been 37 different actors to portray him!!! That's crazy. I think my favorite Musketeer movie was Man in the Iron Mask. I actually watched it a few weeks ago. Snake is a perfect word to describe Rochefort and it's how the actors described him as well! I hope he doesn't try to hurt Anne, but at this point he's so far gone he's capable of anything! I think you're right of him not becoming the Capt. It would take him away from being by Anne's side and spying on everyone at the palace. I just wonder who he's going to put in charge. I hope they get Treville back and don't drag it out because I can't imagine anyone else being over them. He's their father figure. They get enough crap from Louis right now. They don't need to hear it all day. As far as your question as who's the bigger puzt.. If it had been last season I would've said Bonacieux, but this year Louis takes the cake!! He has been unbearable!!! Last year he was funny, this year not at all. He acts like a 5 year old throwing a temper tantrum. We've only seen Bonacieux twice and only for a few moments so I call that a win win! I kinda thought the same thing with Aramis and Anne, but think she totally put the moves on him at the convent. He was grieving after Isabelle and she went in there to him not the other way around. I can't say I blame her though! Yep! She became a smitten kitten the minute he saved her!! And yes! I have a library of gifs of them!! You've been warned!

wednesday, I did get an hour of Musketeers this week.... thanks BB... Tick Tock ... Tick Tock ... Tick Tock ... Tick Tock ... Watched em all girl.... more please. lol Save a few for when the other two musketeers get here... I guess we'll have to let you be Aramas. I still have a few on page one to watch so I'm cool.... I really liked all of em but the "Boot Camp" 1,2,3 and the Australian link stuck out..... the last one of them talking about Rochefort the snake cracked me up. The last 5 yrs of the 90's I competed in cross country Endurance Races on my Arabians. .... they were one day 50 or 100 mile races.... Drop the flag and first over the line wins..... up mountains, swimming rivers, in storms, quite an experience, I loved it....I rode thousands of miles and saw some beautiful country..... the 100 milers would start before sunrise and end after dark many times.... there were Vet checks and a short rest about every 15 miles to check if the horse was having problems.... They didn't care about the riders. The fastest I've covered 100 miles is 9hr15min so the pace is not slow.....it speed depends on the terrain and footing. The fastest 50 ridden at the time was 2hrs 6min and there were three horses racing for the finished line....... I'll tell ya more about sometime it if you wish....

shoe20 I'm glad you enjoyed them! Oh I have more! Seeing these made me appreciate the show even more with all the hard work they put into it. You could already see the brotherhood developing right from the start which really comes across onscreen. It didn't even seem like boot camp to them. You've lived quite the life cowboy! That sounds amazing and you got to visit a lot of beautiful places too. We'd love to hear more if you care to share. The others can catch up with the videos. You have to watch all the fan videos I've posted from the previous page and these new ones! They are the best and really showcase the friendships/relationships! The humorous ones kill me!
