That time of the week  
Went to see Iron Man today, mainly on the draw of Robert Downey, Jr. and the general superhero theme. Robert Downey, Jr. has still definitely got it. Don't ask me what "it" is, exactly, but whatever it is, he has it *g*. I still hate Gwyneth Paltrow though. On the whole I enjoyed the movie, although I found the basic premise extremely similar to Robocop, although with updated Bad Guys, and with slightly more 'man' and slightly less 'machine'. Better dialogue than average, which was nice, although still much gratuitous blowing away of stuff and people.

Tried takoyaki (octopus balls) for lunch. Never had them before - I thought from their appearance they'd be chewy like fish balls, but inside the skin they were actually soft and creamy, with a nugget of octopus inside. Not a great fan of pickled ginger, but it tasted pretty mild and they were very yummy overall.

It's dull and grey outside, and Ryan is way too excited for my mood.

Lalalalala... )

Haven't managed to watch House yet. Maybe tomorrow *g*

Challenge 40: Rose & The Doctor // s25x01 - Remembrance of the Daleks // Cropping  
It's time for Challenge 40! I apologize for the late start - I have not been well, but I have finally pulled together the images for the challenge, and I'm going to leave it open until Saturday night, so you get one extra day to submit icons!

This week's challenges are some favorites, I think! The New Who challenge is that unstoppable pairing of Rose and the Doctor. They've been through so much together, from saving the world to watching it end. They made new friends and faced old enemies, showed us new worlds and made us look at familiar places in a different way. Together, they proved to us that the New Doctor Who could be just as exciting, fun, corny and riveting as the Classic series. Your Classic challenge this week is the Seventh Doctor serial, Remembrance of the Daleks. Ace and the Doctor find themselves in 1963 London, where they've been followed by both Imperial and Renegade Daleks who seek to gain the Hand of Omega. The Doctor must hide the powerful Gallifreyan artifact to prevent either of the two Dalek factions from using it against the Time Lords. Finally, your Various challenge is cropping! Sometimes the cleverest of crops can truly make the difference between a boring icon and a brilliant one. Show us your cropping skills!

This week's challenges:
New Who A: Rose & The Doctor (I choose the picture)
New Who B: Rose & The Doctor (You choose the picture)
Classic Who A: s25x01 - Remembrance of the Daleks (I choose the picture)
Classic Who B: s25x01 - Remembrance of the Daleks (You choose the picture)
Various: Cropping (You choose the picture)

Challenge 40 details ...  )

Right now the count stands at:
00 - New Who A Entries
00 - New Who B Entries
00 - Classic Who A Entries
00 - Classic Who B Entries
00 - Various Entries

All due by: Saturday, May 17

House, Hamlet, Reaper  
I am combining posts because I planned badly and have some sort of phobia against spamming.

Also, why can't I sleep like a normal person?

House )

Hamlet at the Stratford Shakespeare festival )

Please world, watch Reaper! It is awesome and adorable and all the characters on the show genuinely like each other and actually communicate with each other and the devil kicks ass, and there is also Gladys the DMV demon who is awesome, Vinnie Vanlowe from Veronica Mars is leading a demon revolution, and this show makes me so happy, so please, please watch it, so that it can get good rating next year and survive and I won't have to be deprived of Sam's adorable puppy dog eyes. Also Richard Burgi played some sort of lust demon on tonight's episode. How awesome is that?

I want to write a story around Nomic, and have people be the game itself.

Maybe make it futuristic, as a way of teaching worldbuilders how to be gods. Or novices how to be philosophers. Or something. Maybe have a game of Nomic that's been going on for thousands of years. Or millions, even. Before it was even called "Nomic."

they don't even use the lyrics of the song. what, do they think we don't know who david bowie is?  
Oh god, they've released the trailer for the US version of Life on Mars.

...he's too muscular.

And he doesn't wear the hair nearly as well.

And Colm Meany, I'm sorry, you're trying very hard, but you're no Phillip Glenister.

And the voiceover and the background music just make me wince.

....and is Annie blond?

*sighs and goes back to Doctor Who, which has already gotten over its thankfully brief bit of Americanization and will never suffer from it again*
