And following up on my last post: my queen Cynthia Erivo.

( Cynthia Erivo performs Make Them Hear You from Ragtime at Broadway Backwards a few weeks ago )

Sooo, following up on my last post. Pasek and Paul. The good stuff, not the sub-par La La Land stuff that Hurwitz had his hands all over, sung by performers who can actually sing (and act, too, a novel thing ( Read more... )

A few things I forgot to mention in my last post about the Blackhawks-Kings series: First, after all the struggles Toews and Kane had making a real difference in the playoffs, it seemed only fitting that to make it to the Stanley Cup finals, it took a huge Tazer-to-Kaner goal, giving Kane a hat trick. If that doesn't give them both a boost in ( Read more... )

Here's hoping we can get through a week without another earthquake, or at least without the jolty kind waking me up when I really need the sleep.

My lucky brother saw Book of Mormon, which just opened at the Pantages this week! The tickets were set aside months ago, so he completely forgot that he was going until that morning. I'm mostly jealous ( Read more... )

Doc Emrick in Game 2: Now things are really...weird.

OMG GO KINGS GO WHAT IS HAPPENING. I keep trying not to get too excited about the Kings' run this season, but when they're ONE GAME AWAY from hoisting the Cup, it's getting really hard not to.

Via talitha78: Bad Romance x Avengers. I'm so glad the artist expanded the original gif into a whole video. LOL ( Read more... )

Kopitar: Uhhh, I went forehand.
Quickie: LOLS.

Okay, this year's Stanley Cup Final is going to be too much. Everyone in the house had to get up and do other things at various times during Game 1 because we were all too stressed out. I read some fic (new Toasterverse installment, OH YEAH), my mom cooked some rice, my brother took a shower, etc. But ( Read more... )

First pics of Russell Crowe as Javert in Les Misérables. And a few pics from last week of Hugh Jackman as Valjean and a bonus Colm Wilkinson.

I had a good weekend. My two youngest first cousins graduated from grade school this weekend. All my cousins are poised and accomplished (and hilarious) young women and men, so I always love seeing them and the rest of the extended family. Though when I got home, I had to thank my parents for never sending me to Catholic school. Just about everyone ( Read more... )

FRINGE HAS BEEN RENEWED!!!! \o/\o/\o/ 22 more episodes of mind-bending, hopefully universe-hopping Fringe-y goodness! A world without Olivia Dunham being awesome on my teevee isn't a world I want to live in, so FOX made the right decision. ::FLAILS::

Why did I not know that Stark Sands is in the pilot for Rookies? I hope it gets picked up, both ( Read more... )

The main feature in this month's Los Angeles Times Magazine is a spread of young talent. I'm happy my issue came with Eddie Redmayne on the cover! Is he not lovely? It also includes beautiful photos of Boardwalk Empire's Jack Huston and Kings & Captain America's Sebastian Stan. Dennis Hopper's son looks just like him, but I honestly can't see much ( Read more... )
