Okay, I know this is sort of stupid, but I'm a little depressed by what Colin Morgan says about the whole Arthur/Merlin thing in an interview (http://gealach-ros.livejournal.com/62845.html)

It's not that I think Arthur/Merlin is going to be canon. And I don't even really think they make it so slashy on purpose (well, I kind of do. Kind of. Especially during scenes with dialogue like "faster, Arthur! Climb!") It's just... he sounds sort of mean. And whatever the intent behind it, can you really deny the subtext? I'm asking an honest question here- is Merlin really as slashy as I think it is, or am I just unable to ditch my fandom-issued slash goggles?

Bad actor! Don't you know I'm supposed to be able to project onto you all of the traits I want you to have! Stop being an actual person!

List 10 of your favorite characters from different fandoms, and ask people to spot patterns in your choices, and if they're so inclined, to draw conclusions about you based on the patterns they've spotted.

(shamelessly lifted from [info]haleysings )

1. Jareth (Labyrinth)
2. Connor Hawke (DCU, arrowfam) (BEFORE his characterization was fucked up beyond belief)
3. Tim Drake (DCU, batfam)
4. Dean Winchester (SPN)
5. Momiji (Fruits Basket) (it's so hard to chose! I love them all!)
6. Merlin (Merlin) (see comment for 5)
7. Tara (True Blood) (see comment for 6)
8. Aly Cooper (Tamora Pierce books)
9. Aang (Avatar) (see comment for 7)
10. Jayne Cobb (Firefly/Serenity) (see comment for 9)

hit me with your keen analysis and perceptions! I am aware these are mostly guys. I'm just hopelessly shallow, I guess.

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 20 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4: For those who are guessing -- looking the lyrics up on a search engine is CHEATING!


about as weird as you'd expect my itunes on shuffle to be )

yes yes yes yes I'm posting again. But because the internet is wonderful, and I cannot deprive you of this:



It's a fan-made trailer for a Green Lantern movie starring Nathan Fillion. And it's awesome! Okay, most of you probably know my feelings on Green Lantern. They stem from the fact that he used to be Green Arrow's partner, but somehow became more famous (possibly because of the better powers, better outfit, and better logo, but whatever). As a huge GA fan, how can I accept that?

Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan, however, I do accept. And would probably go to see in the theaters at least four times.

Also, the official Princess and the Frog trailer, if you haven't seen it. I'm cautiously optimistic, though the abuse voudoun is going to take is probably going to piss me off a lot (my theology course has ruined pop culture voodoo for me forever)

Seriously. If I was a famous musician, all of my music videos would look like this.

Though I sort of had to wonder if she actually knows the story of Romeo and Juliet. And the line about the scarlet letter? Though considering that here she's a regency girl sneaking out to meet a guy in the middle of the night without a chaperone, it's very appropriate!

It sort of makes me like her more! Yes, she still sort of looks like an alien, and yes, she's my age and singing about someone proposing (ngh), but she's using her fame to put herself in a period drama! Badass!

Okay, okay, I should be doing homework. But if I hadn't been procrastinating, I wouldn't have founf the youtube videos of this year's Ohio Star Ball show dances! Which I actually witnessed with my own eyes!



The first one was my favorite. It was so fun! I'm pretty sure the third couple won, since they're technically amazing, but the first was my favorite. The audience actually booed when they got third or whatever it was they won, not because they didn't like them, but because they thought they should've done better. Ballroom fans are pretty classy about this kind of stuff.

. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me!"

2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.

3. You will post the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves) on your blog or journal.

4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.

5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions. And thus the endless cycle of the meme goes on and on and on and on ...


With questions from the lovely [info]xlovelylightx 

5 questions (and 5 answers!) )

Castle premiered last night. And it was amazing! Okay, I watched it pretty much only because it stars Nathan Fillion, and I'm ridiculously maternal about the entire Firefly cast, but it was actually really good in its own right!
It is a little derivative, i will admit: Wacky and childlike Guy pairs up with serious and street-smart Girl to fight crime and trade witty quips. Girl is annoyed by Guy's unorthodox behavior, and Guy somehow manages to solve the case, despite acting like a total moron and pissing everyone off. I love the Mentalist, so this isn't really a problem for me. But though the basic structure is the same, Castle is just... well, more fun. For one thing, Guy (actually named Rick, played by Nathan Fillion) really wants to get into Girl's (savvy detective Kate, played by gorgeous Stana Katic) pants. He's a mystery author who's also a single dad, living with his adorable 15 year-old daughter and his crazy, boozy mom. And, I mean, it's Nathan Fillion. So he's hysterical! Kate is also amazing, and a lot more likeable than most of the straight-man Girl types. Because she's funny, too!
The last thing I need is another TV show to watch. Aaaaaaargh.

Holy missed oppotunity, friendslist! It was Presiden'ts Day weekend, and I didn't watch 1776! WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?

Better late than never. Here are some clips, because it isn't a national holiday without John Adams and Ben Franklin singing a duet.



I know John Adams was a shit President. I know that. But because of this movie (and only because of this movie, really), I really really like him! And I try to convince myself that he was actually as awesome in real life. It doesn't work all that well.

This movie. looks. SICK! Oh man. I love how animated movies are happening now. It's sort of like all the studios woke up, and realized "Shit! It's not just for Shrek and shitty kids movies! We can make this badass!"

Speaking of which! Coraline was amazing! Also completely terrifying and innapropriate for children. But mainly awesome.

Your result for The Steampunk Style Test...

The Explorer

29% Elegant, 34% Technological, 43% Historical, 52% Adventurous and 43% Playful!

You are the Explorer, the embodiment of steampunk’s adventuring spirit. For you, clothing should be rugged and reliable, and just as functional as it is attractive. You probably prefer khaki or leather, and your accessories are as likely to include weapons as technological gizmos. You probably wear boots and gloves, and maybe a pith helmet. Most of what you wear is functional, and if you happen to wear goggles people had better believe that you use them. In addition to Victorian exploration gear, your outfit probably includes little knickknacks from your various travels. Above all, you are a charming blend of rugged Victorian daring and exotic curiosity.

Hell, I'm a fan of all seven.

(If you respond with the next line, I will love and worship you forever and ever)

Hmmm.... well, I do tend to dabble in all seven, but my number one is probably pride. I have a lot of it. Mr. Darcy don't got shit on my attitude.

Weeeeell posting about my intended term paper topic got me onto a bit of a Batman kick. It happens. And since these are exciting/terrifying/infuriating times to be a Batman fan, I give you some tempting pics that've been released about Battle for the Cowl, which is basically what's going to happen after Bruce Wayne either bites the big one or loses his marbles completely. Here goes:

so nerdy you can not believe it )
One theory that I stumbled across and kind of like, is that since there are villains after the cowl as well, the new Batman is actually an evil one! Thus leading to much angst amongst the bat family members, and probably resulting in a Bruce vs. Bruce battle (if this ends up being Tommy Wayne, it actually works really well). Then Bruce comes back, and all is back to the status quo, with possibly a few unimportant characters biting the big one along the way.

Feel free to post your ideas, rants, judgments on how I'm a complete and total dork. I shall accept them all with a smile.

ALSO. [info]izzy_the_hutt linked me to an AWESOME fanwork site called Cat Tales. Do you know what it is? It is entirely made up of Catwoman being a BADASS. I know I said a lot about Harley Quinn being my favorite villain, and done well, she most definitely is. But she's honestly hardly ever done well, while Catwoman is consistantly a total badass!

TODAY IN MYTHOLOGY

my prof: I love Antique Roadshow. And I really really want someone to bring in a table from Galilee. "Do you know what you have here? A table made by Jesus of Nazareth. And it's PERFECT!"

ahaha I love his class. I have already decided that I will write my term paper on vampires and zombies, in folklore and myth up to the modern times. That I would chose this topic should surprise no one.

Last night I took a judo class! The main two teachers were a Canadian guy with a handlebar moustache and a tiny asian guy whose fingers were all mashed up because they'd been broken so many times. He told us we would have been pro athletes by now if we'd started judo as little kids, and that we'd be able to squat for extended periods of time if we'd spent as much time shooting crap as he had when he was in the service.

What service, you ask? I believe it was the federal bureau of KICKASS.

There's a whole lot of slapping happening in judo. My forearms are very sore.
