So, finally saw the Winter Soldier
Apr. 30th, 2014 01:18 pmGiven the squee on my flist, and that fact that a couple of my fave writers are in the fandom now, I figured I wasn’t going to be able to avoid spoilers much longer so I hied myself off to the cinema, and dragged
zebra363 along.
( The Winter Soldier is an excellent action film )

Apr. 18th, 2013 08:20 pmCome hell or high water I'm going to find an English language screening of Star Trek Into Darkness, if I have to go all the way to Berlin to see it, but I don't have to worry about that until May 9.
I wasn't intending to bother with Iron Man 3, after the last disaster, but but these reactions from the screening in London last night have changed my mind.
So, sometime soon after May 1, I need to be thinking of this.
In fact, if the stars align, maybe I could see both the same weekend, sometime soon after May 9.

Mar. 29th, 2013 11:01 pmSince my three month old laptop blew up last week and I had to buy a new one and get IT people to make it be in English for me, the low battery warning that comes up now casually advises "You might want to plug in your PC." I mean, it didn't used to say that, right? Is it a Windows 8 thing, or a translation thing?
Also, when you read that message and it seems dirty, it might be sign you've been reading too much porny fanfic that evening. Also, when I think about it, if you've just read a fic where Tony Stark gets Steve Rogers off by flicking him with a wet towel in the showers, you might be too far down the rabbit hole to climb out again.
A few vid recs and a sneaky BC link.

Combine a fandom I love and a song I love and it's pretty much a perfect storm - I have no objectivity, so I dunno, I think this is a lovely vid, but you must judge for yourselves - a Hathaway vid: Hallelujah
Huh, the whole pilot of the young Morse series is up, wonder who long that'll last - Endeavour pilot
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
Excellent Bill/Jim vid, seriously. No really, watch it! - Chanson d'atoumne
True Blood
Circus -Eric and Russell like to be dramatic
Human I LOVE THIS. Ensemble piece, early seasons.
Eric/Sookie/Bill - El Tango De Roxanne Constructed reality vid where they're basically the main characters from Moulin Rouge. Normally not a fan of vids with lots of effects happening, and while the vidder may not quite have the skill to pull over everything they were attempting, it's a bloody good effort. I love it. NB - the first 55 seconds is a complete rubbish intro which seems to have no purpose but to show off the vidder's name. 55 seconds! The only reason I got to watch the actual vid is I was doing something else at the time and didn't have a free hand to impatiently click away like I normally would have. IDK, WTF
Avengers
I don't know if this a "good" vid, but I found the footage and the story interesting, so there. Natasha/Clint Sweet Dreams
Someone's just posted a Black Widow vid (just her scenes from the movie put together in a pleasing manner), and a Loki vid to Red Right Hand, which might not have quite achieved what it aimed for, but still manages to do a good vid overall. Links here
