User:Matthew R Dunn

Hello all, my name is Matthew R Dunn, and I have created this page in the hopes of contributing to this wiki now and then. Since I mainly contribute to Sci-Fi themed Wikis (Battlestar Galactica, Doctor Who, and most frequently, Stargate), I though that having a variety with a non Sci-Fi wiki would help. I know that I use my own real name as a user, but I got used to it now, I pretty much use it everywhere. I hope to see you all again soon for the purpose of editing. But first, more stuff about me.

About me
My middle name, is Robert. I am 20 years old and from a small village in North Wales, UK. I have been a fan of the show for a long time. The first episode I remember seeing was Day 2 3:00am-4:00am. I was very confused what happened earlier in the series, but followed on from there. After I saw Day 3 and Day 4 whole, I bought a Season 1-3 DVD collection. I finally got the jist about what day 2 was about, and saw day 1. I like nearly everything about it (except the fact the some of torture scenes were a little excesive).

Thoughts from each season
Since I really like 24, I thought I should share what I think about each season. I may sound a little critical in them, but I do like every season. But among them, there are favourites and least favourites;
 * Day 1: Well, it was the beginning. Palmer is threatened with assassination and the bad guys wants to frame Jack for it and his family gets kidnapped because of revenge by the Drazens, as both Jack and Palmer were part of the mission, and because Victor lost his wife and daughter, he plans to kill Jack's wife and daughter. It's an interesting concept.
 * Day 2: One of my favourite favourites. A bomb plans to be detonated over Los Angeles, so that Palmer can declare war against the Middle East. But it is actually a plot from Peter Kingsley, who wants the war because his oil pipelines go through those areas, to increase the price of transport. So millions would die, but he would make millions more in his pocket. Greedy and selfish, but that's villainy for you. And a section of the government's trying to stop the bomb from being found, excellent.
 * Day 3: A bio attack against the US, despite the fact that the main bad guy was a Brit, but if it was held in the UK, that would be Spooks' territory. One of my least favourites, the second day had more action (my opinion), although the helicopter drive-by was pretty cool.
 * Day 4: Absolute chaos this one. First, rescue Heller from being excecuted, but that's a diversion, a "Trojan Horse" for melting down every nuclear power station. Then, stop a stealth aircraft from blowing up Air Force One, which failed, to gather the Nuclear football, steal a warhead and fly it to LA, all from mastermind, Imhotep. This is my absolute favourite of the bunch.
 * Day 5: A web of conspiracy that one, Russians attacking LA with lethal nerve gas (it was supposed to be Moscow, but never mind). They would be released to gain Russia's oil, and the main bad guy was the President, this was excellent, like a rebound of Day 2, but better and more actiony. Then Logan was taken down by his mentally-unstable wife. Never underestimate the power of women. Shame Jack was captured by the Chinese. Also, Julian Sands played the part of Bierko beautifully, one of the best villains ever. 2nd favourite day.
 * Day 6: Started more or less in the middle, the country's being attacked and more about damage control than anything, and stop Abu Fayed, and then Jack's new enemy, the Chinese. But, they picked on the Middle East, a little too much than Day 2 and 4. This falls into the bottom half of my favourites.
 * Day 7: Can't wait for that, I was stunned with the whole Writers Strike and that it has been delayed by a year, but at least Exile's coming out soon. I saw the promo for day 7, with a Die Hard 4.0-esq plot. 110% hyped up about that.

24 Dreams
I have done the same thing on Stargate, Battlestar and TARDIS wikis. Here are the 24-based dreams I have been getting;
 * Middle Eastern terrorists somehow form a meeting inside my grandmother's garage. The terrorists had ties with Nina Meyers, who is alive. Jack Bauer has her and bugs her to listen in on the conversation. I was looking in on the meeting from outside, with my brother and one of my sisters. The main terrorist was the same female worker from Day 2 2:00pm-3:00pm. However, communications break down, and the group was about to kill her. However, the group mysteriously vanished. Jack opens the garage door and plugs two rounds into the woman. However, she didn't die. She picks up her gun. Jack is, for some reason powerless to shoot her again. However, the woman shot herself in the head. She talked about how her father was great, before finally dying.
 * I talked with Jack, but he had to some kind of operation. He gives me his vest and his gun, as well as Chloe O'Brian. I was looking at one of my neighbours' house, and saw two cat burglars entering it. I went in and told them to leave. They didn't listen, so I tried to beat them up. However, I wasn't very good at fighting. I told one of them ; "I might not be able to beat the crap out of you, but I can shoot you". He didn't listen, so I shot the man in the leg, they both left.
 * Jack tried to rob a Christian Aid desk, but the man next to the table pulled out a gun, so Jack got back the money.
 * On the White House, Aaron Pierce and Mike Novick had a serious argument and was shooting each other. Charles Logan put a stop to it.
 * Michelle Dessler and Tony Almeida were reenacting Day 5 7:00am-8:00am. However, this time, Michelle had her hair like Pippi Longstocking, and later got killed in the explosion.
 * Jack, in the last hour of some day, went to visit a helicopter full of evil Marines. He used a machine gun and shot them all, whilst the chopper was flying and he grabbed onto it.
 * Kiefer Sutherland was announcing on TV, that I would become a guest star on the new season of 24 for some reason. I recieved a letter with his signiture. I went to Los Angeles for the filming. But things got complicated when I was involved with a woman, which was what my character was into.

I may have missed some, I'll add more later, when I get more of them.
