I'm jumping on the ficlist bandwagon fairly late on, but if you're interested then read on ( Read more... )

So as of yesterday it is official that Torchwood is returning as a spangly dancing superdooper UK/US joint enterprise. M'eh. As I said at the time, yes I'll probably end up watching it but then again I am fickle and hypocritical .:shrugs in a non-apologetic way:. I can't see where it could go at this stage, or if Gwen and Jack are strong enough to ( Read more... )

The reveal is up at remixthedrabble. This round there was an option of claiming a primary assignment and up to 4 secondary remixes. Being a greedy sort I went straight for the all-you-can-eat 5 option and manged to get 4 of them done. I'm happy enough with my 80% completion rate!

In return I got 2 pretties, both by velvetmouse and both lovely (I especially loved The Gift ( Read more... )

So better late than never, eh? I snagged two pretties from this round of remixthedrabble.

Happy sigh!

From my corner:

Have I mentioned recently how ace remixthedrabble is? No, really - 47 fandoms, 114 fics. I guess that fully comes under the 'something for everyone' umbrella.

I wasn't just sucking up freebies, no siree. In return for my previously mentioned pretties, I offered:

The Power of Titles (The Expectations Remix) for hyel
[POTC: Anamaria/Elizabeth, 150 Words, Rated PG]

So that was the Doctor Who finale then, was it?

This season has had some blisteringly good episodes - however this wasn't one of them.

( Meh - let me count the ways - spoilers )

So... I appear to be the only person on the planet strangely unexcited by the whole Harry Potter thing. Don't get me wrong - doubtless I will be seeing the film in the next few weeks, but for some reason I'm not feeling the same book love everyone else seems to be. (Although with the weather the way it is, it’s quite nice not to be currently ( Read more... )

Am I the only person who doesn’t think The Prestige is the greatest film made since the invention of cinema? Apparently so. I admit I was sucked in by the hype; I haven’t read the book but was intrigued by the premise. I saw a trailer and was very excited. Got preview tickets, settled in with my popcorn and prepared to be dazzled and amazed. That ( Read more... )

Due to a hectic couple of weeks (coupled with a healthy dose of laziness) I’m yet again behind in keeping up with my friends’ page - oddly my surprise over this fact is hardly overwhelming ( Read more... )

I keep hearing Torchwood being compared to Ultraviolet, which I firstly find strange but also on some level strangely amusing. From what I can gather Torchwood is Doctor Who set in Wales with more naughty words and nudie bits, focusing on a bisexual 51st century military man fighting BBC funded monsters of the week. Oh yes, and with no Doctor Who. ( Read more... )
