Complex is good! But I'm usually shipping her with not-Good guy anyway. Because Good Guy is often incredibly bland and 'normal' and boring, all white-picket-fence and stop-being-X (where X is slayer, kickass FBI agent, etc)

I didn't remember that about Flubber! (Though I'd certainly have Thoughts if I saw it again now. It's great that your father noticed and spoke to you both about that.

TVD is a big motivator for me writing this, but I won't go into detail now because I want to write meta about it and I'll use up all my energy if I write it out now :)
Ugh, it really sucks what they did to LJ Smith. They basically now own her characters and have forbidden her to write about them any more so they can force their own agenda on the books (written by a third party with Mr Bland Stefan taking centre stage I believe). Instead of just letting the two media part ways as with 'True Blood' which no longer has any ties to the storylines in the novels at all. That's a cautionary tale for authors. For all the whining some authors do about how fanfic is 'stealing' characters*, it's a big business tv production that's taken a writer's characters away from her permanently.
*Not LJS herself, but others who we all know too well
