SV recs...

Just passing on the fun...

Exchange: Clark and Lex exchange Christmas gifts. Lovely and sweet.

Achilles' Heel: Not a particularly happy future fic. Took me a little while to get into, but the ending is well worth it.

Lilah's Coffin: Let's admit it. *sniggers* We all like Lex because he's shiny! Actually, it's a nice lighthearted fic, complete with it's own mutant freak of the week. Fun reading.

New SV actions figures: Just a quick bit of fun that made me giggle. Note: As always, homoerotic content sold separately.
I want the Clark and Lex dolls in the Luthor Manor playset.

Now I'm off to bed. I'm seeing TTT tomorrow, and long films combined with a lack of sleep can result in embarrassing snoring...

Pervy Hobbit fancier...

I just got back from seeing TTT and loved it. It was great! The true sign of wonderful special effects is when you find yourself so engrossed that you barely notice just how good the effects are. I was concentrating so much on the fighting scenes that it wasn't until I left the cinema that I realised how good it was.

Also, loved Gollum. He's a real scene stealer. Fantastic to see that just because a character is mainly animated through computer graphics, he doesn't have to be annoying (think Jar Jar Binks...). Generally, I can't wait until the next film.

Only thing I didn't like was that I went to Village Cinema's and got the playing cards. Dodgy. There's a picture of the ring and Sauron's eye for the joker, Gandalf is the Ace, Frodo's the Jack, Eowyn's the Queen and Faramir's the King. One hobbit? I got ripped off. (Although the back does feature a little picture of Sam and Frodo, but still...)

( Moments I loved... )

Oh, and I have Bernice to thank for making me giggle in serious moments. Once, when the serious, threatening Orc said that he 'could smell man' because I couldn't help thinking that obviously he could smell Aragorn. And once at the start when Gimli, Legolas and Aragorn are running across the hills. I couldn't help thinking that it would probably be used for the start of the TV series (or they'd try to shoot the same, on a lower budget, and they'd run across little hills instead of mountains...).

It's a very slashy film, although I still can't see Aragorn slash (I mean, I can, but I have to put some effort into it...). Frodo and Sam - definitely doing it. Merry and Pippin - they were already doing it in the first film. Legolas and Gimli - I'm thinking still pre-slash, because they're both putting so much effort into impressing the other.

I'm going to go try some of the recs given to iibnf for non-angsty Legolas/Gimli...

(no subject)

Bugger. Missed the ABC thingy on Alexander the (Fabulously) Great. It was on tonight at 8pm. I completely forgot. (Must remember that Farscape is on at 10pm.)

In other news, Mum returns from holiday tonight, so I no longer have the house (and the communal computer) to myself.
