Article about scoring The Avengers - I approved of his Captain America score, and he called the movie "magnificent", so yay!

Fascinating, but long, discussion of language in Dollhouse.

Star Trek 2 will start shooting on January 15th...with a SUMMER 2013 RELEASE?!? WHAT?

100 Things You Didn't Know About Lord of the Rings. Well, some things you didn't know about LotR and some you probably did if you were ever in the fandom.

HARRY POTTER BOOK 7 TITLE. MERRY EFFING CHRISTMAS INDEED!

Voters choice at [livejournal.com profile] dom_lims again, go me! It's my birthday! Not for real real, just for play play. I have been spending too much time with Bonney.

Sometimes I feel like fandom is too pairing-centric. Maybe it's just because it takes a lot to sell me on a ship properly unless it's written by Joss or something, but I tend not to care so much about ships. With some people it's all they talk about, and people use ships to justify harshness and hatred towards other characters, rather than any dislike of anything about the character in particular. I don't like it.

My sister and I have taken to yelling parts of Justin's SNL skits at each other. We'll just be shopping and we'll be like 'First they were chapped, then they got burnt. I hope a third thing doesn't happen to them!' Or, of course, 'Give it on up to Homelessville.' Also I can't hear the words 'do you mind?' now without thinking 'mind? I don't mind a biznit.' BUT THEY TOOK DOWN THE TERRRGET ONE OH NOES! Now how will I see it?!

Okay, I've been hanging out at [livejournal.com profile] denrito's YouTube is Cooler Than You, Dammit! meme thread and it is the BEST THING EVER:
Brad Pitt & Ed Norton singing
Elton John makes up a song from lyrics from an oven's instruction manual
Chris, JC and Justin can't decide who they are - I was just watching this the other day on my computer (yes, I have a copy.)
Openly Gay Dan
SGA + MST3K
Eat shit Jessica, it's CARROT! - I've linked that one before, but it's SO funny. Sex on the beach, whatever, and then you WOKE UP.
End of ze World - a classic.

John Krasinski kisses Rainn Wilson and they call each other BFFs. I can even find boykissing in fandoms that aren't mine! ;)

ZOMG TRANSFORMERS TRAILER. THAT LOOKS LIKE SO MUCH TRASHY FUN AND IT HAS SHIA AND TOM LENK AND JOSH DUHAMMEL. I AM SO THERE.

SMG will play April O'Neill in the new TMNT movie!

I have given my father until Monday to tell my mother or I'll do it myself.

I completely forgot to say, I found a really cute dress to wear to the wedding I'm going to this weekend (yes, I find it ironic that I'm going to a wedding at the present time) and also a very cool new tshirt. It's blue, but it says "Glam Rock Star" on it and it's cut really well, so I'm kinda in love with it. Not as much as my Joss is Boss tshirt, but still.

I had a haircut today and my hair smells really good.

In case you weren't confused enough already, according to Saul Zaentz PJ & Fran WILL be doing The Hobbit. Hehe. Doing the hobbit.

Elijah on Blue Peter tapdancing and signing autographs for kids. AWWWW!!!!

He may be batshit insane, but Elton John agrees with me on at least one thing.

Phelps twins do commentary on new GoF DVD. AWESOME.

Supernatural, Heroes and BSG icons - including and animated one of Sam breathing on the table. I might have to download that, because holy shit.

[livejournal.com profile] ack_attack made incredible BSG icons. I am IN LOVE.

Okay I like bright colours in icons but I don't like being fucking BLINDED by them. Seriously.

Flanvention II may be cancelled. FOR THE LOSE, PEOPLE.

My Top Ten Favourite Fandom Things I Discovered This Year

10. Heroes. I can't wait to see past 1.04. The premise is good and the execution excellent. Pretty boys and cool superpowers? I'm there.
9. [livejournal.com profile] spnnewsletter. I read it every day, and every gen fic linked from it. 90% of my Supernatural information I get from there.
8. Amber Benson. I didn't really discover her this year, I always loved Tara the most, but I MET her this year and I just fell in love with her. I want to be friends with her. She's so talented and funny and sweet and fun.
7. Evanna Lynch as Luna Lovegood. She's so perfect it hurts.
6. Entourage. I actually discovered Ari before I discovered Entourage, which is weird.
5. Tahmoh Penikett's ears. Well, Tahmoh. Or Helo. Or, for that matter, BSG. I'll just stick them all in here, shall I? Tahmoh even looks good as a video game character.
4. [livejournal.com profile] rack_of_lamb, because Muhney is just made of 100 different kinds of awesome, and he POSTS THERE. Also, the other people at the community are just lovely.
3. NAVEEN ANDREWS SAID HI TO ME.
2. [livejournal.com profile] ack_attack. How I wasn't friends with her before this year I'll never know because she's just one of the most awesome people on my friends list, and crazy, and my friend, and I love her.
1. PIZ. MORE PIZ PLZ. [livejournal.com profile] indilime found hires preppy!Piz. SO FUCKING PRETTY.

I'm kind of depressed.

It's my birthday a week from today and I can't afford to go to Sydney or do pretty much anything, I can't think of anyone to hang out with, I still haven't told my father about my fucked up uni, my life's going nowhere and I'm 23. It sucks.

Meanwhile, if you are in fandom: liking one pairing does not entitle you to be as rude as you like to fans of another pairing. Liking one character does not entitle you to be equally rude about another character. Attacking actors is not on. If you dislike something, fine, give reasoned arguments or express your opinions politely, but remember it's just a character.
Bitches.

[livejournal.com profile] hackthis wrote Heroes fic. Nathan & Hiro, non-slash and perfect.

Ian Somerhalder looking so pretty it's kind of ridiculous. [livejournal.com profile] dryope also posted more pics from that photocall.

Am I the only person who doesn't automatically equate 'hot' with 'attractive'? I think there are other qualities that go into making a person, character or cast 'hot' without just being physically attractive. I like casts that gel well, I like personalities. I think Veronica Mars is one of the hottest casts because of their chemistry, not just because they're all attractive.

SERIOUSLY COVETS. I want the long-sleeved brown one. I am also amused by the these and want the babydoll Joss is Boss t-shirt. I have NO MONEY. *woe*

This review of Supernatural 2.06 'No Exit' hits on the exact reason why I didn't like it. It wasn't a bad episode, but it wasn't an episode of Supernatural. Shame it's so horrendously written.

I should join [livejournal.com profile] dudemeister, because this is awesome. Supernatural is the nerdiest fandom I'm in, I swear. I also love [livejournal.com profile] kroki_refur's Ten Expressions and (while I'm at it) [livejournal.com profile] sargraf's Brotherly Manlove Catalogue and [livejournal.com profile] anteka's Plastic Winchesters.

Ask Me My Fandom Opinion

How this works:
1. Ask me one fandom-related question in the comments (look for fandoms in my interests). This can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/in general. Ask anything.

2. Try to stick to one question...though it can be one question with several parts, I suppose.

3. That's it. It can be as normal or odd as you like.

I love [livejournal.com profile] dryope for making my day so much better, and [livejournal.com profile] truffle_shuffle for keeping me entertained on MSN/AIM.

Since everyone on my flist is suddenly watching Queer as Folk (by everyone I mean [livejournal.com profile] indilime and [livejournal.com profile] dreaminoflorien) I figured I'd do a Brian Kinney/Gale Harold picspam.

I'm in love with one of the dancers on the Australian 'Dancing with the Stars.' He's called Carmelo and he's Italian and dancing with a woman who's awesome and twice his age and he's gorgeous. Really.

COVET.

I am going to be back online in an only slightly diminished capacity from now on. I'm not keeping up with everything but I'll be around and posting again. Rejoice! Or, you know, skim over my journal in your flists and wish I'd go away. Whatever.

Dear Dave,

I don't know who you are - I suspect you may be that bald guy from Sex and the City everybody keeps going on about - but whatever I have done to offend you, I apologise sincerely. I'm sorry you hate me. Please stop cancelling my downloads. I need my Lost fix.

Sincerely,
Green Queen

Anyone got a good download link? Please?

In other news, I have watched all of season 1 of Babylon 5. Thus far it reminds me more of, say, a melodramatic Red Dwarf more than the genius of Firefly (not that Red Dwarf isn't genius, more that it's comedy), but I have a feeling that may be due to the idiocy of casting that lead actor. WTF WERE THEY THINKING. The quality drops exponentially the more screen time he has. I might have a slight older man crush on Garibaldi, though, and I think I read something about Ivanova and Talia being lesbians, which promises some fun for the future. I look forward to the next season free of that wooden moron. With more G'Kar and Londo, because they are made of awesome. And Danielle Delenn! OMG.

I want my Wombat results but the website's being pissy. *sad*

I want a really good fandom discussion. I don't mind which fandom you pick (obviously I would prefer one I'm involved in since I wouldn't know much otherwise), just ask me a serious question about one in my journal. Entertain me!

You know what? Sometimes it just sucks being a non-American Lost fan. You guys get all the cool stuff. Plus I can't be involved in this fandom thing I really REALLY want to take part in. Nor can I submit questions for the Damon/Carlton podcast, or vote on their theme song, or watch the show on my TV every week. We don't even have TiVo in Australia. The internet is, of course, an absolute lifesaver in terms of fandom - at least I get to watch the show not long after you guys and be involved with things like The Fuselage, Naveen-Andrews.net and the great fan community - but I feel like I miss out on a lot too.

I don't necessarily want to be American or dislike being Australian, but it's so inconvenient sometimes. You feel like an inferior fan by virtue of distance.

I wish Tom and Nina would hurry up and visit already.

Ugh, listen to me feeling sorry for myself.

I want to say a huge THANKYOU to everyone who gave me Jason Mraz songs for my sister.

She's doing fine, I went and saw her in hospital this afternoon and she had a TV in her room so she got to watch the Idol final. She's whinging a lot, but I'm taking that more as a sign that she's mostly fine than that she's actually significantly ill.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR PICSPAM LOVERS: I have to go through my Photobucket account and download most of the old spams so I have more space. I'm going to get the account better organised so that I don't always upload the same pictures 10 times in different folders. So go back through the memories, your bookmarks, download everything you want to keep, because it'll all be gone in a couple of days.

I'm so excited about Veronica Mars coming down under!!

Apparently I missed some hot boykissing in the UK last night. I'd go back in time and rob a bank to go to that convention if I could.

In case you're feeling randy I reposted my naked actor picspam. Hot stuff.

Call for Girly Geek Essays! I'm thinking of submitting but the truth is I've always been a geek in fairly girl-centric fandoms - Jossverse, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and Lost have all had strong female components over the years. The first suggestion is also "what turned you into a fan?" but I've kind of always been one.

Pics today - your daily Dom dose courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] dryope (the rest of the Holy Shit shoot!) and a whole bunch of the wife.

New pics of Dom and Maggie )

And now! At Last! Another post completely different from some of the other posts which aren't quite the same as this one is.
