Facinated

I have been completely enthralled in the world of Fan Fiction, specifically those having to do with Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.  I imagine what I'm going through is similar to those who get wrapped up in video games which is something I personally have never much bothered with.  I mean, yes, I play but to spend mindless hours staring at a screen is well, pointless.  However, as I write these words I realize that I am doing exactly the same thing; not at this very moment mind you, but I will be in the next twenty minutes or so.  After all, what else can one do after completing a favorite TV show left wondering about all the "what ifs".

If you are wondering why I have a sudden fascination with such fan fiction (the show has long since ended) it it because of Kaizokuko's fanfic Memory on deviantart.  It was left uncompleted and I'm scrambling to make up for the loss.  I loved it and it "ended" on a cliff hanger.  Of all the nerve.  Oh well, such is life.

12th Doctor

While I'm glad that BBC decided to choose a Scottish actor I didn't expect them to choose Peter Capaldi, he's just so old.  If they wanted an older actor why didn't they choose James Marsters?  He would have been brilliant.  Perhaps the fans of Torchwood would have upset since he played a character there but Peter Capaldi was actually in Doctor Who before not just a spin-off (I just found out that he was in Torchwood too).  *major sigh*

I not going to judge him anymore than that though, after all I haven't even given him a chance.  As long as he keeps his Scottish accent I will probably love it.  If however he tries on a fake English one I will have lost faith in this show.  There is only so much a person can take.

The Devil's Own - Movie Reviw

The Devil's Own was so bright despite its somber atmosphere.  I laughed and cried and hoped for a happy ending that I knew wouldn't happen.  Even with all that it is truly one of my favorites.

What else can one say?  I loved it; the music, the characters, the scenery, and perhaps the fake Irish accents most of all.
