don't be dull, be fannish

♠ Today, in the park, I saw a group of approximately 20 young people, sitting in a circle on the ground, blindfolded. Just sitting. Eh?

♠ In the same park, I saw an old poster, saying, "I Believe in Sherlock!" Heh.

♠ Apparently, Pacific Rim 2 is not happening after all: link. Personally, I was surprised that there were any plans to continue it at all since it was nowhere near a hit.

♠ Rebecca Ferguson might be the front runner for Captain Marvel: link. Nice. I adored her as Ilsa Faust in Mission: Impossible 5.

♠ And Vinzenz Kiefer is leaving Alarm für Cobra 11. Apparently, they decided to change the tone - AGAIN! - and go back to lighter stuff and fun and his Alex Brandt was way too dark for that. It's too bad. If they had just given him fun stuff to do now that he mellowed. But no *sigh*

♠ I finished translating Patricia Briggs' "Dead Heat", #4 in the "Alpha & Omega" series. And I didn't like it, gave it 2 stars only. She introduced some great guest starring characters, like the cute gay couple (the Mad Scientist & his Cop BF) or the Cantrip agents (Marsden & Leeds). But Anna was suddenly all, "BABIES! BABIES! BABIES! NOWNOWNOW!" as if her brain switched places with her uterus or something and my interest in her as a character dropped from zero into freezing temperatures. Eh.

♠ I started reading manga again. I'm trying to finish two series, "No. 6" by Atsuko Asano and "Korzar der Liebe" by Erii Misono, before I start new stuff.

♠ I bought the first two books in the new "Alien" trilogy, "Out of the Shadows" by Tim Lebbon and "Sea of Sorrows" by John A. Moore.

♠ I plan on going to see Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials this weekend. Already have the tickets reserved.

♠ And I'm still obsessed with Shadowhunters, the Malec ship and Matthew Daddario. Have you seen the MTV article about him, titled "9 Times ‘Shadowhunters’ Star Matthew Daddario Slayed Us With Hotness"? I kid you not. He was so flustered by it, LOL!

LJ's down again, so I don't know if this post will make it through or not...

I'm off to the Supernatural con Jus in Belo! Today, it's Prague, tomorrow then Rome. I'll see you all next Friday, peeps!

Hopefully, by then LJ will have its problems sorted out. This is getting ridiculous.

I'm off to London (via Prague) tomorrow! I won't be back until Tuesday afternoon/evening, so behave, my dear flist! ;P

I decided to keep all the shows from last week - and this week too - for next week. I'll be in a show-related overload by then, but whatever. I'm still too smitten with WhiCo to "ruin" my mood with anything else.

BTW, I think I already know what I'll write for my WhiCo Big Bang! In my idea, Peter and Neal investigate the theft of an ancient box. But the box itself is not really all that valuable - it's more about what's inside: a very, very evil thing that the thief released. I have it all plotted out, the who's and why's and how's, I even broke it down into scenes. Hopefully, it'll make 10.000 words! *crosses fingers*
