My name is John,
I feel as though you don't consider your playing of a "Borg Queen" as well put to your acting skills. Please, in no way should you believe this true if you should, in fact feel this way. On the contrary.... no actor could use such sensuality in her voice and demeanor as you did. All considered, better than a "Darth Vader" as a male. With Voyager also you played to sensualness - more difficult perhaps - but your confidence held you well in this role. I hope you feel it was well done. Sensuality is so important to each of the roles played. An "Evil" without stirring our beings cannot always be visceral. YOU and your skills made these roles - MOST visceral. Even in our every day lives. I cannot imagine another actress so well done.
Dune also. But I felt you were actually "forbidden" in your role. Stifled perhaps? Something held you back from "flourishing". I may be wrong - I'm not attempting to be trite. Coming out of no where - if there were a Borg Queen - you nailed it. Right on the head - and did so well. The timber of your speech, timing, titillation, wording - as may the writers have given you well mannered verbiage,... it was still your abilities. Strong. Concise. On mark.
Now there is something new,... The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. A mythical tale of good and evil. Should you be familiar of not - Siuan Sanche, The Amyrlin Seat. The Woman who holds the power of the White Tower. This is a world of the Forsaken, and Time rolls 'round and 'round as the battle is joined. Weaving the portions of earth, fire, water, and spirit until the Dark One is defeated. The Forsaken who destroyed Lews Therin Telamon. They are: Moghedian, Semirhage, Lanfear, Graendal, Demandred, Messana, Ravin, Aginor, Balthamel, Be'lal, Sammael, Asmodean and Ishamael. Some have been defeated by Rand al'Thor ~ the incarnate of Lews Therin - some have not. The Dark One's service has not yet been destroyed. Weaving the One Power in todays realities of the True Power. Given the abilities of computer animation, as you well know, the ability to continue a Trilogy or Quintilogy is open for debate and why wouldn't it be?
Allow yourself to think of it. Please, I only know of you and your performances now. But these ladies of the Forsaken, lush in their belief of their own power and sensual desires,...You! My nephew and I have written screenplays with this new technology aboard. If you know of Robert Jordan's books you know they are artistic and so many chomp at the bit to have them brought to the screen in a whole and richly sculpted manner. Whether you be the Amyrlin Seat, or Moghedian, or Lanfear - we would only desire your ability to bring this out in a performance all would be delighted in. It's a rich rich story, and we've gone through many parts of it. Flogging ourselves with purity of the story and liking it to the present abilities of film. Strong female parts. Yes. It must be so. Men, in all their creations - still requite to women for their strength. It's not a bad thing - only real. Powerful men come up in this tale - one of so many. This is fine - but women are strong also. Never let it be said naught. Cloak yourself in it, feel the wondrous powers surround you, envelope you. Hold off the "penetration" of males. See how women deal with weaving the powers of earth to building or destruction,...
It's hard work,... but come on board. The Role is sweet, and empowering.
Thank you for your sweet time,... little work for so much creation.
