"What is the use of a book, without pictures or conversations?" -- Alice
So excited for True Blood tonight and new Vividcon vids (once they all finish downloading *g*)!!!
In the meantime...linkspams!
Cool new things I am excited about
Two Alice in Wonderland updates!
One by the SyFy channel, which can be cheesy but I loved Tin Man so I’m more than willing to give it a shot
One by Tim Burton, which looks INSANE and awesomesauce.
Riverworld, also from SyFy: a trippy Orpheus-esque journey to the land between life and death featuring one of my favorite nerdy weirdos, Alan Cumming, and one of my favorite shirtless sci-fi hotties, Tahmoh Penikett (of Battlestar Galactica) [based on sci-fi book series by Farmer]
Being Human, a new vampire/werewolf/ghost=roommates show from BBC America. We don’t get BBCA on cable in the Great White North, so I might have to look for bootlegs or wait till it comes out on video
Leviathan - New alternate history book by one of my favorite sci-fi authors Scott Westerfeld due out in the Fall. I think some of the male figures in my life might end be needing that for Christmas :)
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is getting turned into a graphic novel!
New supernatural YA by Francesca Lia Block!
Jennifer’s Body, a feminist teen horror movie by Diablo Cody starring Megan Fox (yes, she’s trashy but she’s freakin hot!) and Amanda Seyfried (of Veronica Mars, woot!)
Whip It! A rollerderby movie, based on the YA book Derby Girl by Shauna Cross, and starring Drew Barrymore, Eve, Ellen Page, Juliette Lewis and Kristen Wiig sporting some truly awesome derby names. As discussed with sundancekid (Allison Chains), pyrex_11 (Hellville Dewey) and K (Rose Shred), my rollergirl name would be Rainbow Smite.
The new Fame! An update of the 70s dance movie classic full of shiny new dancers and other shiny things!
9! Amazing new dark animated sci-fi feature
Fun nerdy things
Joss Whedon and Co won a Hugo award for Dr. Horrible for “Best Dramatic Presentation, Short Form”
How to Meet and Woo a Nerdy Girl by Liz of the Park Bench
Nerdy Wedding Cake Toppers from io9
20 Best and Worst Pets in Science Fiction by io9 - I completely agree about the awesomeness of Ampersand but I love Grr!
In the meantime...linkspams!
