The good.
OMG, OMG, OMFG, EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
I was just looking up the Armageddon line-up for this year and I might COLLAPSE FROM EXCITEMENT.
I'm just not sure if these guys are doing the Melbourne expo or just Sydney so I don't want to celebrate just yet in case my dreams are crushed like a fat squishy bug splatting underfoot, but oh, the hope. Please, if there is a god, make it so? *wistful*
I'm a little worried, though- two dudes from Twilight [Michael Welch and Kellan Lutz?] are also appearing which means that as crazy packed and lengthy-queue-waiting tiring as it's been in the past two years, it's probably gonna be more squished and exhausting by a factor of a gajillion. *sighs* Twilight fans are crazy, yo. [If anyone makes a crack about the pot calling the kettle black...I'm warning you]

The bad.
Leverage season 2 spoilers. >:[
What's with shows having a brilliant first season and then frakking with the dynamics in the second? If it ain't broke, DON'T FRELLING FIX IT. JEEZ. First there's that business with Lisbon's ex in Mentalist, and now we have Sophie's new love interest. Whoop-de-bloody-doo. I was so thrilled when I heard it was back on but now? My bubble has burst. *sniffles* Somebody tell me it'll all be okay?
I know people are rationalizing away the boyfriend because her relationship is supposed to result in development with the Sophie/Nate relationship, but I don't care. I don't always need a ship to enjoy a show [Dollhouse, for instance] but when I do have a ship, messing with it often means I either drop the show or take a break. I ditched Stargate during that misguided Pete era, ugh. If anyone would like to let me know which eps are heavy on the extraneous-love-interest and warn me, I'd appreciate that.

And the cracky.
GUYS, Peter Garrett looks like John Druitt. *flails*
Does anyone find this freaky at all? Our Arts Minister resembling Jack the Ripper, omg! :P
Even their names are similar- John and Peter are old traditional names, they were the apostles in religious texts.
And Gar-ret/Dru-itt. Come ooon. I don't think I'm reaching here, do you? 'k, maybe a teensy little bit, but...
Their cohort.
Their manic grins.
Careers.
Garrett- former singer, now MP.
Druitt- badass, past and present.
Can be found:
Garrett- making speeches
Druitt- freaking people out
I rest my case. ^_^

Also, the pretty.
Emma Watson to star in Marilyn Manson's creepy movie musical based on Cinderella. [Articles here and here]
Doesn't she look like a princess in the first one? *coos*
But then I remembered that this is a dark gothic fairytale, so she might end up looking more like the latter.

I love those whimsical outfits, she looks gorgeous!
I'm looking forward to seeing what she can accomplish outside of Harry Potter. I hope this movie's a success for her- it's annoying how articles keep saying it's her first time straying beyond HP territory when she made Ballet Shoes and voiced a character in Despereaux. I really want her to succeed on her own. *optimistic*

Not the best quality, but it's the only semi-decent one I could find. I WANT THIS ON DVD NAO, PLZ. Oh, the rib-busting hilarity.... *wipes away tears of laughter*

Lol, Crais groupie, really? Learn something new every day.
I think Emma's about 19 now, she's so wonderfully level-headed and poised, here's hoping she maintains that. I'm not going to talk about her being a 'role model' because it pisses me off when people apply that label- she signed on to be an actress, okay, parents? Not to guide your children on their morality and work ethic and all the other things you should be teaching them- but it's great to see her not going nuts like a lot of other child actresses.
Hee, I'm glad you enjoyed the comparison, I was thinking 'gee, I hope Kat doesn't think I'm being disrespectful here'...'k, not really, I know you have a sense of humor. And anyway, I blame this on YOU, with your brain-washy-ness and picspamming... There was a picture of Garrett in the paper the other [something about a backflip over uranium mines or some such] and in my new Sanctuary-ified state of mind, I immediately freaked out. Doesn't fandom make life fun? :D
Druitt is both hotter and more terrifying and, I should imagine, considerably more seductive...
ITA. I love Druitt's cheekbones, I have a thing about cheekbones. As for seductive...yes, this guy is lethal, killed a whole bunch of people back in the day, of course I find him more appealing than the politician...where is my mind? I am so drawn to power. *sighs*
Even if their manic grins were unsettlingly similar *shudders*
O.O THAT IS SO WRONG. I had to double-and-triple check to make sure I hadn't accidentally mislabeled the pictures, because that threw me. Spoookyyyy... ^_^

Yes, I was a Crais groupie. There's nothing like a baddie who's so completely effed up that every attrocity he commits is an expression of his love for his own family ;p
Emma's lovely and I do think it's wonderful she's not turning into the train-wreck a lot of child stars do, but I'm also completely with you on not liking to consider actors and actresses to be role-models. That's as ridiculous as listening to celebrities when they wiegh in on science they know nothing about. so stupid...
Fandom does make life fun and you feel free to blame me all you want. Always happy to earn new converts. It's like the icon says "Come over to the Dark Side. We have cookies." Only ,in this case, we have screencaps ;p Here, have a few which highlight the seduction-value:
Druitt: "Well, hello, Nikola..." (Are you enjoying the unspeakable thing I'm doing to you?)

Druitt: *in his mind* "Oh, yes. This is what I miss about being the Ripper..."
Will: *in his mind* "I'm not seeing this, not seeing it, not seeing it, not seeing it..."

"We may hate each other, but that doesn't make us less hot together..."

and a pic that makes me jealous of Nikola Tesla's right index finger:

Famous politician or notorious serial killer. I know which one I'd pick :) Who needs value-judgments when you've got cheekbones like that?
