Jul. 15th, 2009 08:40 amSarah Connor Chronicles:
Two great post-Born to Run (i.e. the s2 finale) stories, one a sort of sequel to the other:
These Things My Mother Taught Me and Like Locked Rooms. ( Description spoilery for s2 finale ensues. )
Harry Potter:
Due to the HBP movie finally getting released this week, it's interview time for the actors again. Which reminds me that when the film versions started, I wouldn't have predicted that of the three young leads, the one who'd turn out to be the best actor and the one you can see learning and improving from film to film would be Dan Radcliffe, but thus it has turned out to be. He also shows a great level-headedness and a sense of humor in interviews that's quite endearing. Here is a new one, complete with such gems as:
Q: You've said recently that you would like to date older women. You know who's older, single now and likes British guys? Madonna.
A: Christ. I don't think that I'd do my chances of working with Guy Ritchie any good. I don't know which one I'd rather do ... I'm not sure I'd be her cup of tea.
Multifandom:
Speaking of a sense of humour - not unrelated to certain current events post Torchwood - Children of Earth, but containing no spoilers about same (as opposed to spoilers for Tale of Two Cities, The Sting, and Gone With The Wind):
Tufax about pre-internet fandom
Torchwood:
A great review of Children of Earth, analyzing it as a horror story.
New community: if, like me, you're really not interested in fixits because you don't want any of the CoE events "fixed" (in the sense that fandom usually means it; I'm on board with coping and dealing fics), but want the new situation and above all the largesse of awesome characters we now have explored, check out![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
torchwoodfive, where they're already debating whom the post CoE team should consist of.
