I LOVE HAVING AN AUNT WHO GETS PRESS RELEASES :D



new wicked witch poster. file is actually huggggggge. about 1300px high.

( cut for my predictions & wishes, spoilery for casting. Also more CAPSLOCKS. )


In other news, my film teacher emailed me and said my WOZ paper was AWESOME! capslock is hers :D (she's very hip. she introduced the class to vimeo not me. but I spend to much time online. we had to present a favorite film found on youtube/vimeo/whatever. I wanted to present 's trelkez's The Adventure, but decided against it, because the vid is password protected, and I thought it would be too complicated. So I showed The Piano Guys' What Makes You Beautiful (5 Piano Guys, 1 piano). Which is a One Direction cover, so some of classmates were like 'GTFO' and some were 'YAYS!!!1!' Teacher got EXCITED about the film work :P ugh, that class rocked. If this were dome 5 years ago, I'd be switching my major to film studies.)

While I'm talking about papers, I've come to the conclusion that I write to much meta online. Because when I was writing my papers this semester, I was totally trying to create text links and strike irrelevant things out, instead of, you know CITING SOURCES.


:P

Star Trek Into Darkness trailer

American Teaser Trailer
more spoiler-y Extended Japanese Cut

and dammit, if they cut the hands-against-glass bit out of the American version because of homoerotic subtext, I will smack a bitch

Also does Bandersnatch Benedict Cumberbatch sound like Patrick Stewart in the trailer? just me?

ScifiSyFy's Tin Man. and ALL THE OZ FEELS. I mean Oz the Great and Powerful is coming in March and I've been excited for MONTHS about that. And then I'm writing my final paper in film class about The Wizard of Oz and sexual/female imagery (because I can). And so I decided to FINALLY watch Tin Man. AND HOLY CRAP, HI NEW FANDOM. or extension of old fandom, however you want to view it and it doesn't help that erinm_4600 and bizarra are COMPLETE enablers

Oh and hi Neal McDonough. I remember you from Boomtown. You absolutely made me stop and take notice when you threatened the witness and punched a hole in the wall and were generally just *unpf*. You are wonderful in Tin Man with your gun and hat and vaguely noir/western outlook. You can go join Ron Perlman in my list of 'favorite awkward looking sods with the prettiest blue eyes', mmmkay? other members include Daniel Craig and Laurence Fox. You'll fit in well.

yeah, anyone got some 60-odd thousand dollars to drop on the Profiles in History auction? It would make a really awesome Christmas present... and my star wars OFC, who's never seen the light of day is an Imperial Guard. so yeah. I ♥ these guys. gals. whatever.

An Imperial Royal Guard production-made helmet from Star Wars: Episode VI- Return of the Jedi. When the dark Emperor Palpatine arrives to confer with Darth Vader on timely topics such as Death Star II completion, and patience concerning the Luke Skywalker “problem,” he spares no expense in ceremony with his cordon of crimson-clad Imperial Royal Guards, mysteriously obscured inside highly stylized and streamlined helmets such as this beautiful production-made example, obtained directly from the production team at ILM. It is pictured below and expected to fetch $40,000 - $60,000.
