Aww...

Peter Jackson about Martin Freeman and why Martin was chosen for the role of Bilbo in The Hobbit:

"Despite the various rumors and speculation surrounding this role, there has only ever been one Bilbo Baggins for us," says Peter Jackson. "There are a few times in your career when you come across an actor who you know was born to play a role, but that was the case as soon as I met Martin. He is intelligent, funny, surprising and brave - exactly like Bilbo and I feel incredibly proud to be able to announce that he is our Hobbit." Link

Aww, he's smitten with Martin! \o/

Podfic rec: Sherlock

"Shift" by messageredacted, read by fayjay | Gen | H/c, case!fic | Cracking plotty casefic-type thing, Sherlock being his maddening self, John being utterly Johnlike in the best of ways, and Sarah being awesome, as well as code breaking, serial killers...it's all good, my friends! Like a mini episode! | ~10.300 words/1 hr. 10 min.

There was a night almost a year ago when John Watson took aim with this very pistol and saved Sherlock’s life. Sherlock is not as professional, but he is not unfamiliar with firearms. He aims at the bulk of Gates, feeling his palms sweating against the stock of the gun. Back then, John Watson never hesitated, and Sherlock doesn’t either. He lets out a long, slow breath, squeezing the trigger as he does so.

This fic is awesome. Literally awesome. It's a case!fic but so full of emotions and deep friendship between Sherlock and John that it pushes all my buttons! \o/
