It's Not Easy Being Green

I'm thinking of starting a blog for my movie reviews, to make me take it all a bit more seriously, but I don't know if I'll be able to keep up with it.

Chris Lowell may have a new role. Looks like a better one than in Private Practice, at any rate.

Heather Morris talks about drama that I didn't know existed. I'd read the gay-playing-straight article but I thought everybody would've dismissed it as ridiculous.

ack_attack's 'What They Died For' recap is up. ONE MORE EP TO GO YOU GUYS. She also wrote an ode to Lost.

Damon and Carlton’s Top Ten Lost Spoilers for the Finale.

Nerve.com ranks, in order of sexiness, the male and female characters of Lost; fandom rightfully has a hernia. It's sad that there are 15 more men than women.

I can't believe Buffy has been off the air as long as it was on. WHAT.

Cute Castiel picspam.

Very funny impression of Ian McKellen performing a dramatic reading of "Fresh Prince of Bel Air".

Don't forget about the fanmix, picspam and fanvid I made for Star Trek Weekend over at thegreenscene!

( Chris Pine pics of epic hotness )

Twilight-mocking comic and a whole spam of some more. And a little perspective.

Chuck season 3 promos of awesomeness.

LOL Adam Lambert. Also, Dom was there and presented with MORENA BACCARIN! Dom and Firefly crossover!

JJ & Chris Pine interview by MTV. He practices his Shatner.

Sequel talk: Karl Urban, JJ, John Cho and Leonard Nimoy.

Genuinely awesome Scooby Doo t-shirt.

Pretty Disney spam.

Pretty icons: one, two, three

Supernatural animated mood theme.

BEST FANMIX EVER: IN CASE OF PON FARR: HIT IT. BAHAHA. I am still in awe of the fact that Pon Farr is a real, canon thing.

Where Trekkies were born. Almost makes me wish I could go back.

Chris Pine will play Jack Ryan. I'll watch it, but I don't care all that much. I am impressed that he is now playing the same roles as both William Shatner AND Harrison Ford, though.

Nathan Fillion interview.

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog picspam of awesome.

Fairy tale 'Dollhouse' promo on WhyIWatch.

Fran Kranz interview. Adorable.

Is real science catching up to Topher? New Scientist reports that a Laser has been used to create false memories in fly brains.

How "Apple" became "Drizzle". DRIZZLE!

Tricia Helfer will guest on 'Two and a Half Men'. Ugh.

Empire's 100 Sexiest Movie Stars. Chrises Pine and Evans need to be MUCH higher. The Twilight cast needs to be banned from all lists from now on (and I LIKE RPattz.) The fact that Jensen even rates when he's not remotely a movie star is awesome (he SHOULD be a movie star, he's one of the most talented actors currently working on TV.) Gael & Jake & Paul Newman ♥ James Dean needs to break top 10, man. HOW can Megan Fox beat out Angelina Jolie? How is Emma Watson #3? HOW IS HARRISON FORD ONLY #33?? Go Zoe Saldana, though. MARILYN MONROE AT 15? Travesty. Not even the top 10.
...actually, a lot of TV stars in there - Kristen and Eliza (♥), too.

Rise of the Zombies T-Shirt. LMAO.

National Organisation for Marriage's campaign against same-sex marriage (NOM? Really? Cuz that just makes me want food) and the hilarious and accurate Funny Or Die response starring pretty much everyone we like or care about.

ack_attack made Lost & True Blood icons at iconseeyou. Also: multi-fandom with GLEE, mata090680's AWESOME LotR, mostly Supernatural, fucking GORGEOUS Supernatural & Flash Forward & Warehouse 13, multi-fandom, Supernatural

( DDD + MORE GLEE!!! )

1. Reply to this post, & I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including this info) & talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.

truffle_shuffle gave me these:



1. Wicked: Defy Gravity by shornt @ slur_a_plea
I have liked Wicked for a while, but seeing it live really brought home my love for it, and for Elphaba in particular. I love this character so much. She's righteous and strong and tragic and green, and she sings some of my favourite songs in musical history. Particularly this one, which is one of my all-time favourite songs, and is also brilliantly feminist and uplifting. Rock on, Elphaba.

2. Dollhouse: Freedom by me
I actually mostly uploaded this icon because I fell in love with this cap. I think Victor-as-Roger with Adelle might be my favourite engagement ever; it's so wrong, but you can TOTALLY sympathise with why she does it. He is gorgeous as Roger, and everything about these scenes was so very beautiful. This icon is of my favourite moment, when Adelle's phone 'slips' from his outstretched fingers and announces their day of escape together - one that will cost Adelle dearly.

3. MCR: Frankie Iero by gummishiip @ matchbox_icons
This actually reminds me of my much-loved Supernatural 'Pulp Fiction' icon in style. I love that FRANK! text, and I need to have an MCR icon. I learned that lesson the hard way. Frank is my favourite.

4. BtVS: Tara Magic by mouthfullofdust @ thirdhex
THIS IS ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVOURITE ICONS. I use it all the time because I just think it's so beautiful and simple and perfect. It looks magical. It's got Tara in it, who is one of my favourite characters ever. I think mouthfullofdust is an icon god for creating amazing images like this one.

5. BtVS: Being Poor's Rubbish by mouthfullofdust @ thirdhex
And this one. I'm noticing an eye-free trend here, actually. Anyway, the colours in this icon are terrific, and this is a very useful and appropriate icon, given my usual financial statement. Plus it's good to have an icon of Anya, who is one of my favourite Buffy characters.

6. SereniFly: Simon in Space by me
Again, I had to make this icon because I fell in love with the cap. There is something sad and scary and beautiful about that image, Simon out there in the terrifying black of space, when you know River is beside him absolutely enraptured by the very thing that's scaring him. Sean Maher was so pretty on that show, dammit.

Reply to this post and I'll give you the name of one person/character. Then answer the questions with pictures of the person/character you were tagged with in your own LJ.

From now on I will be posting the adventures of the Simterprise over at thegreenscene, so if you're on my flist, are interested in the Simterprise and haven't friended that comm yet, now's a good time to do so.

Star Trek fan episode with adorable gay plot.

I read this the other day and I found it fascinating, so I'm passing it onto you cool cats: Sexuality in Star Trek at Wikipedia. I didn't know about what's gone on before on this show, it's really interesting. More so given that there's this petition to try to get the Star Trek Reboot PTB to make Kirk/Spock canon. I think it would be a lot better if they fought for any gay main character.

Lost Bosses Say They're Shocked By Latest Emmy Nod. N'awww.

Joss Whedon on Emmys, Dr. Horrible and the future.

@theTVaddict Rumor has it that the cast of DR. HORRIBLE'S SING-A-LONG blog will be performing a number from the show on Emmy Night. Pass it on.
HOLY CRAP. YES PLEASE!!! BEST EMMY PERFORMANCE EVER!!!

Interview with Javi about Middleman. Yay!
