rosengirlI've just finished watching my Kaamelott Livre V dvd boxset which was the end of a big watchathon of the whole series and the evolution of the show is even more striking when you watch it all back to back.
Watching Livre V's episodes as they were originally edited (8 x 50') made the season ten times better. The story flow felt more natural and the new opening credits are beautiful.
Livre V is absolutely gorgeous in every aspect and truly heartbreaking.
Arthur's pain is difficult to bear and I just wanted to reach out and hold him. Lancelot is impossible to hate, obviously, because he was misguided and so damn lost (and I did felt the urge to give him a cuddle once or twice, too). Méléagant scares me shitless and that can't be said about a lot of vilains, believe me.
The ending is *such* a downer, a magnificent one, granted, but I did tear up again. I'm excited about the prequel season but I'm also frustrated that we'll have to go through 8 episodes first before we get the cliffhanger's resolution.I'm already rooting for something incredibly slashy involving Arthur, Lancelot and lots of confort, btw.
Can it be fixing tiem for Arthur nao plz plz plz ? ;___;
As for the extras, the Livre VI's teaser is way too frustrating and short but there's A MAGNIFICENT Alexandre Astier interview taking place at the Cinecitta studios which makes me worship him even more now than I already did before. The man is EPIC.
I've also run out of Boosh to rewatch (episodes, live show, extras, interviews and stuff) which is why I'm currently all *SADFACE* and I am now halfway through Nathan Barley again and I'm actually enjoying it more this time around than the first, for some reason. It may have a vague relation to me having recently read the awesome stupid cracklulz that was Fratboy!Arthur's sequel and that the majority of the characters are cracking me up everytime they open their mouth to speak. Or it may have to do with the fact that I'm also reading Barley fics on the side and that I've reluctantly *laughs* jumped on the Dan/Jones bandwaggon. Or simply because JULIAN BARRATT IS HOT LIKE THE BURNING OF A THOUSAND SUNS in this, then again I was already aware of that fact the first time around. I'm not even hating Claire that much now.
On a musical note, after resisting a long time I gave the Ting Tings a chance and promptly fell in love with their album. That was the last thing I expected, d'oh.
My two favourite songs being :
Peace and Fucking , dude and dudettes !

on 2008-12-03 08:51 pm (UTC)There's some of the earlier episodes with (not so dreadful) english subtitles on youtube and here's one of my favourite episode, mainly featuring Arthur and Bors to give you an idea. It's quite... Wordy this show :
You are such a medieval shipper. XD Is awesome.
I did get back into Kaamelott thanks to my current Merlin love, though. I'm also dying to rewatch Holy Grail now *smiles at your icon*
