rosengirlCatching up with the memes :
Day 01 - Your favorite quote
Day 02 – Your favorite classic series story
The Sea Devils - I just. It was with this serial that I REALLY started to get into Classic Who and enjoy it. UNIT, Clangers, Master/Doctor EPIC SLASHINESS, cracky swordfights with sandwich stealing, cracky fierceness on hovercrafts, Old Greggs army, THE MASTER AND THE DOCTOR LOCKED IN A TINY CELL TOGETHER ahem. I love it all.
Honorable mentions : City of Death (for Doctor/Romana, PARIS and Timey Wimeyness) and The Mind Robber (cracky fairytales, wrong!Jamie, Zoe kicking arse and Two writing fanfic to save them all. And it has a legit unicorn in it.).
Day 03 – Your favorite new series story
OMFG SO HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD. Er.
Human Nature/Family of Blood : because I love the story, I love the time period, I love David's STELLAR performance, I love how unusual and daring a story it is for the Doctor's character, I love Jessica Hynes, Harry Lloyd and Thomas Sangster's terrific guest roles and I love Martha's fierceness in it.
Honorable mentions : The Parting of the Ways, Girl in the Fireplace, Sound of Drums, Fires of Pompei, Midnight, Vincent and The Doctor, The Big Bang.
Day 04 – Your favorite Doctor
NGHHHH SO HAAARD.
Well Eleven won me over uber fast but I have so much love for him that I can't dismiss it and say maybe wait another series to be sure.
Closely followed by Ten, of course.
Classic Doctor is Pertwee closely followed by Troughton.
Day 01 - What made you follow the Nuke storyline ?
Day 02 - Was Luke and Noah the reason you got into watching a soap opera or were you already a soap opera junkie ?
I never got into soaps before Luke and Noah.
We don't have a soap tradition in France like in the US and the UK so it doesn't have the same meaning here (well we've had one french soap who's been a hit for a few years but that's pretty much it). They do still air the Young and the Restless but it's not really watched by people under 50.
Luke and Noah only got me hooked to other gay storylines in soaps which I also watch on youtube but I still could never watch whole episodes of ATWT or any other soaps for that matter. I did learn to embrace the crack though and I admit that it's extremely addicting. I still point and laugh a lot but it's also part of the charm. It's just incredibly fun to follow.
Day 03 - How long have you been following their storyline ?
I started back in November of last year so only 9 months (and just 1 month and a half to go *le sigh*).
Day 04 - What do Luke and Noah mean to you ?
Quite a lot. LOL.
Well they mean countless hours of flail and squee.
They mean getting closer than I've ever been with a good friend of mine.
They mean unhealthy obsession and addiction.
They mean incredible chemistry and overwhelming love.
They mean getting to meet two of the sweetest, dorkiest, sexiest actors in the world.
They mean awesome, talented fandom.
They mean worth fighting for.
They mean FOREVER.
So we saw Inception with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jedicathy, fairy_bliss and angeliksmall on friday night and as far as I'm concerned, I thought it was an excellent film but it didn't meet my expectations.
That's thanks to the huge hype that was all about how revolutionary and groundbreaking it was. Well one sequence actually was (I kept wondering how they did it) but the rest ? Not so much.
I did love it, the cast was incredible, the action scenes were neat and the scenario was very solid, it was good SF. But I didn't feel like it would leave the same impact as say Matrix had on me, at all.
I had no trouble to follow which was probably kudos to the long ass first 40 minutes dedicated to explain everything. TOO MUCH TIME EXPLAINING EVERYTHING OMG. Of course as soon as they started the mission, it became all kinds of awesome and I really was sucked into it.
But anyway the important things about this film are :
Joseph Gordon Levitt should always dress like this. HOLY HOTNESS BATMAN.
Arthur/Eames. I SHIP IT HARD.
We had a lovely fannish night/saturday at Cath's getting Cookie acquainted with Glee and Community. We also rewatched the That 70's Show episode with Joseph in it HAHAHA.
Galouz and I finished the night/early morning with watching random (good) Nuke parts when the other two went to bed because we're horrible junkies like that and it took us two more hours to stop talking and actually sleep (for 3 hours, eh). Like I said to her it was worth it tho <3
Last night I listened to the Doctor Who Prom live and OMGSOGOOD. I can't wait to actually see it because Matt, Arthur and Karen sounded adorable and I want that OST so so hard now.
The pics made me die again today. WOULD YOU LOOK AT THOSE TUX OMG. I love how Karen is towering over both of them with her heels, hee.
Sherlock starts tonight ! Love the trailer and I'm really excited and curious about it.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have A Very Potter Sequel to catch up with. TEEHEE.
ETA : HOW FUCKING AWESOME WAS THIS ?
Gawd I wish I had been there. ELEVEN YOU ARE MY FAVOURITE. IT R JUST FACT.

on 2010-07-25 08:04 pm (UTC)You so need to ! The Time Monster is really really awesome in its later episodes.
I had such a hard time to chose the new who story OMFG. My choice rly was based on the fact that the story was unusual, David rocked and the cast was particulary inspired so it had lots of lovely elements to it.
Hee glad you feel the same on D4 <3
But yes ! I hope it's as awesome as it looks and as you'd expect to coming from The Moff and Gatiss combined.

MATT AND THE KID. That's all I have to say. EVEN WHEN YOU CAN'T SEE HIM, HE MAKES YOUR HEART MELT. And the IDENTICAL BAMF GQMF SUITS. DEAR GOD. Karen looked freaking gorgeous, too, but then she always does. She could be in a potato sack and look gorgeous.
OMG, favourite New Who episode would be so haaaaaaaaaard. I'm torn between The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, Utopia, Turn Left and The Eleventh Hour. Fuck.

on 2010-07-25 08:13 pm (UTC)YES. EVERYTHING YOU JUST SAID ABOUT THE PROM. I AGREE SO F HARD.

THIS. The only thing I really found myself caring about by the end was what happened to their characters.
