Okay, so YouTube is an endless source of nice video clips, especially if you do a search with, say, "David Tennant" or "Doctor Who" or a combination of both. So, instead of getting a good nights sleep I'm sitting here and watching "just one more" clip.

This is just brilliant!

Btw, guess who ordered Blackpool from Play.com...

I should thank my boyfriend for finding this. He apparently wanted to tease me (yeah, I mean, really just tease in the basic meaning of the word) and did a Google search with "David Tennant porn". Talk about illegal... (yes, it is quite work-safe, at least if you can watch music videos at work)

Okay, so I use multiple desktops on my computer, but usually only the first one. I've had a Captain Jack Sparrow wallpaper on the first desktop for a very, very long time.

Like I said, Johnny, I'm so sorry. David has taken your place.

Oh, and this is just illegal. And yeah, of course it's a TV movie, so... Oh! They have it on Play.com!

Johnny Depp has finally met his match, at least if you ask me – David Tennant has stolen my heart.

I'm not even able to write about this as coherently as I should. The inner monologue in my head goes on somewhat like "David David David David OMG squeel *drool* <3<3<3<3<3<3". Yeah, I'm 28 years old and acting like a 13 year old silly fangirl. Go me.

So, I've seen Doctor Who Series 1-4 now (yeah, yeah, Series 1 doesn't have Tennant in it, but nevermind that). I still havent' seen the specials which were made after Series 4, but it's only a matter of time. Well, the Christmas Special isn't even out yet.

What I have seen are the two Friday Night Projects with David as the guest host. The first starts here and the second here, and I bet anyone who wants to see more can find the next parts from YouTube. If you're not interested in watching the whole shows, watch at least the clip where they discuss "Dr. Who porn". I just love love love love LOVE David's expression!!! <3<3<3<3

Okay, see how bad this is? I'm serious, this is just awful!

Another find is this: A fellow fangirl tells 37 reasons why David is SO adorable. With pics.

Also, David and Catherine Tate in Comic Relief. Hilarious! And oh, his accent! <3<3<3<3

"Marry, shag, throw off a cliff" - David Tennant asks and John Barrowman answers, and I think I'm going to die. *omgdrool*

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011)

Yes, it's official, Disney has announced it. Okay, so I was pretty sure they we're going to film PotC IV at some point, but still, when it's finally happening, it made me really giddy.

Summer of 2011 is not so far, eh?

I have ROFLrazzi on my Google Reader, and today it gave me this treat.



Okay, if you take a picture with two dazzling vampires with expressions like that, and give it to people in the Net, and remember that making fun of Twilight is in and hot and hip and whatever, this is what you get. Enjoy!

Oh, and I haven't seen nor read Twilight. Perhaps I should, but for now I'll just concentrate on making fun of it without better knowledge.

The universe of Doctor Who and Torchwood is quite bendy. I mean, with the time travelling and dimensional rifts and all that, it's practically possible to write cross over fiction with, say, Captain Jack Harkness and anyone. Check it out if you don't believe me.

( I just finished reading a Torchwood / Discworld fic. [MILD SPOILERS] )

Okay, and like I wrote in my previous post, I actually had to start watching Doctor Who. Seen series 1 already, and a few episodes of series two. I do like Torchwood better, though, but I guess that's just because of Captain Harkness.

I've never watched Doctor Who, not even one episode. The Doctor Who spinn-off Torchwood, however, caught my attention, when they had James Marsters in the opening episode of season 2. My friends told me I definetely want to see that episode. Oh, they were so right. After that I had to watch the last episode of season 2, also because of Marsters. Yeah, I know, not the best way of getting familiar with any series. But this has happened before, for example the first Buffy episode I saw was "Once more with feeling", in the middle of season 6, and after that I watched the seasons in a very non-chronological way.

But, back to Torchwood. Those two episodes were enough to convince me that I should see everything Torchwood has to offer. It just took me some time to actually sit down and watch all three series. The main reason was that I didn't know where I could get them. Just few weeks ago I finally realised you can watch virtually any TV series on the Net, you just have to know where to look for them (no, I don't do warez). The quality is of course quite bad, but that didn't stop me. And now that I've seen all three series I might actually buy the DVD box, which is released in October.

So, at the moment there's no more Torchwood, I've seen everything there is (well, not Torchwood Declassified, but that doesn't count, and I'm going to see it soon) – and because I crave more of the hotness that is Captain Jack Harkness (Why is "Jack" is so popular name for captains?), I might have to start watching Doctor Who's new series. I have a feeling that it might also cause some fangirlish behaviour...

Of course I can always also read Torchwood fanfic to fill this void.

I really hope they make more Torchwood, although that might be quite a challenge, considering where the third series ended.

Oh my, they've already released the first trailer for Alice in Wonderland. Looking good, looking good, although terribly fast-paced, so it's quite hard to pick up all the little details.

"Hmm, TVTropes, what's that? Let's Google it..."

It's been a while, now, and I should have been cooking. Instead, the comic above has just happened in my living room, although no one has interrupted me yet.

IMDb is only rumouring about this, but I also read it from Como (a magazine about movies, music and other things in popular culture): Sir Ian McKellen, Andy Serkis and Hugo Weaving are going to continue playing their roles from LotR in the upcoming The Hobbit. Awesome!

Okay, so I'm going to share with you some trailers I've recently seen. Two of them are from movies which I knew were in production and which I'm eagerly waiting for – and it took me some time to realise tht there might actually be some trailers released already. The third one is a movie I heard about just today, when I searched for the other trailers from YouTube, and noticed that the search field constantly offered something called "2012". I decided to take a look.

2012
So, let's start with 2012. Yay, another "the world is going to end" -story! I've been wondering if the disaster movie franchise is completely dead, since there hasn't been any disaster movies worth watching for a while. Perhaps they're going to come back with a bang, at least that's what it looks like based on that trailer. Although I don't know if anyone else will be interested in that movie, but to me it looks like fun.

Public Enemies
Public Enemies is the next movie featuring Johnny Depp (or then again, it might be The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, but I think at least here in Finland Public Enemies will have it's premiere first). I'm going to confess that the story of the movie doesn't interest me so much, but I'm going to see it because of Depp. You can call me shallow if you want, but hey, look at that trailer! And I'm not saying the story is totally indifferent to me. I just mean that if it weren't for Depp, I probably wouldn't watch that movie.

Sherlock Holmes
Last, but definetely not the least, Sherlock Holmes. My feelings towards the movie are a bit mixed. Sherlock Holmes + huge amount of Hollywood action = WTF? I believe Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is spinning in his grave. On the other hand, though, it looks fantastic and I can hardly wait for the premiere. Okay, so, yeah, Robert Downey Jr., almost-certain slash baits, apparently witty humour... It sounds so good it might actually be a trap!

I've come to understand that adamantium cuts through anything and it's virtually indestructible. But, if it cuts through anything, does it also cut through itself?

Also, how much does it weight? More than human bones, I suppose, but how much exactly? So much that it would affect for example Wolverines movements? I mean, it's a bit different to carry our own weight when you have normal bones, compared to adamantium ones. Of course your muscles get used to it, but I think that would take time.

Wolverine has a rapid healing factor, but wouldn't that affect only his own tissues? So, his own bones heal, but didn't adamantium replace his bone tissue, so adamantium bones wouldn't heal when broken? Oh, but they dont' break, because they're adamantium. Unless Wolverine can accidentally cut his claws with his claws, if adamantium cuts through itself. Now, that would be inconvenient.

Bonus question, not related to adamantium but Wolverine. Yellow spandex. How on earth is it possible that Wolverine was such a popular character before the movies? Okay, so I haven't read the comics (which is a shame, and I know that I should), but I would think that when a character is clothed in yellow spandex, it doesn't really matter if he's the coolest guy on earth, because he's clothed in yellow spandex! Then again, adamantium claws might add his credibility, and he is quite well-built and I assume his personality is the same in the comics than in the movies. Perhaps he can overcome the handicap of yellow spandex. There, I said it three times.

No, I didn't just see X-Men Origins: Wolverine for the first time, and I didn't even see it just now. I saw it on the premiere day, and haven't seen it since, though I'd love to see it again. I just haven't had the time to write about it earlier, and I'm not going to say much about it now, either. Let's just say that the movie was great and I enjoyed every minute of it, though I would have enjoyed it more if Gambit would have gotten more screen time – preferably with Wolverine.

Wolverine. Need I say more?

Theatrical trailer
Another theatrical trailer

I've seen all the X-Men movies once (parts II & III just a couple of weeks ago, actually), but I think really should get this.

I just (like, a minute ago, dashed to update asap) heard a quick news flash from the radio about the upcoming Sherlock Holmes movie. Robert Downey Jr, who plays Holmes, has confirmed that in the movie Holmes and Watson (Jude Law) do in fact have more than just a platonic relationship.

I actually squealed out loud.

I was surfing around the YouTube, and stumbled upon this Daniel Radcliffe interview. Now, there's nothing unusual with the interview itself, but pay attention when Dan answers the last question. *grin*

I'm sure all the other people who are interested in the next Harry Potter movie have already seen this third trailer ages ago. But, in case I'm not the only one who discovered it just now...

Trailer #3 Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I just noticed that my Potter/Malfoy icon was terribly out of date. I mean, when I made it, I used pictures from Chamber of Secrets, and that movie's made six years ago! The boys have grown since, and I felt it was appropriate to get rid of those babyface pics, since there is better material available now.

For comparison:
