Saw Alice In Wonderland instead of the winner of the Best Picture Oscar. Enjoyed it a lot, although my headache started in the 3D previews (definitely not seeing the Dreamworks dragon film). I can also see why Frank Beddor might be a little upset.

I actually haven't located my copy of The Looking Glass Wars since we moved. I think I loaned it ( Read more... )

I was not just playing with some of the new promos for Glee 1x09 and turn Quinn into a Slayer. I was not. I did not. I deny everything and would not read it if it was presented on a silver platter and it isn't like Joss isn't encouraging us all (SPOILERS IN THAT LINK) with his "These realities can co-exist. And possibly cross over, at least in ( Read more... )

I was just shaving my legs in the shower, and since shaving ones legs is not the most interesting thing a girl can do in the shower, my mind was wandering. And, as my mind is wont to do, it wandered over to fannish thoughts and the BSG finale ( Read more... )

Sophia Myles is in the Miss Marple currently airing on the ABC. Madame de Pompadour is in my Agatha Christie. This is... a little different.

Am achy and tired and have to be in the car driving to Melbourne by 7.30 tomorrow morning. I think I'll have an early night.

Edited: AND there's Paul McGann! And Sarah Parrish! Too. many. connections.

With my current obsession with Wicked I've kind of been inhaling a heap of other musicals. My Cabaret DVD has been living in my DVD player (it makes it a lot shorter in terms of degrees of separation between The Wizard of Oz and Wicked, after all), and I've been all over Wikipedia in terms of Stephen Schwartz and so on ( Read more... )

Because my flist isn't long enough this morning (hi, New Who reviews/wank) I was surfing metaquotes and came across this post by sarah_frost where she was doing the "fuck you, she's awesome" meme. And I had to share this line:

Apparently Willow is getting a toaster oven. Except it seems to be in more of a Marissa-style storyline, alas. Apparently Joss thinks that BtVS fandom has been wank-free for too long and wants to stir it all up again.

Someone, somewhere in Buffy fandom, has to have made a season 6/7 fanvid to Lady Madonna, right? RIGHT?

(using my Restless icon, did anyone else in the CSI episode Dead Doll expect Sara to start talking about being a fireman when the floods roll back?)

I feel like a Bad Fangirl; was squinting at an icon on The Friendslist trying to figure out if it was a very young David Boreanaz when I suddenly realised, whoops, it is Ianto. SHUT UP OKAY IT LOOKED LIKE IT COULD HAVE BEEN EITHER ( Read more... )

The Wind in the Willows is on the ABC, and Mark Gatiss' Rat reminds me more than a little of David Thewlis' Remus Lupin.

I will not search out Rat/Toad, I swear (Toad clearly being a version of Sirius that never had to deal with Voldemort or Azkaban). I won't I won't I won't.
