Meanwhile, in the multiverse...
May. 13th, 2011 07:27 pmI bring links, in lieu of a more content-full post, due to real life business.
Firstly: having to do the usual promotion stuff when a film is released, Kenneth Branagh does the chat show tour for Thor. (Which btw I liked, only I don't have the time for a proper review.) Except that the chat he does with Craig Ferguson quickly turns into a discussion of a) Scandinavia, by) Doctor Who (they're both fans) and c) James Bond actors. Our Ken champions Roger Moore, defending him against the furious Ferguson onslaught with the same arguments Jonathan Levinson uses against Warren Mears in a Buffy season 6 episode: Roger Moore was funny! Henceforth I will see Kenneth B. as Jonathan. Ferguson, ototh, turns out to have more in common with Warren than just choice of Bonds. When they're talking DW - btw, am happy to report K.B. is a "love them all" type of Whovian both for Doctors and Companions - he does a slightly repulsive nudge, nudge, wink, wink thing about how as a director, Branagh should get in touch with the very very attractive Karen Gillian, if you know what I mean, nudge, wink some more. He's getting the polite Irish-British brush-off for this, I'm happy to report, and slightly redeems himself by geeking out about his portable TARDIS and displaying it for Ken's benefit. Anyway, check it out: Kenneth Branagh talks Doctor Who and James Bond with Craig Ferguson.
Because someone had to do the satire sooner rather than later: Darth Vader announces the death of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Make sure to read the comments as well. My favourite is the one pointing out it's all a distraction from the matter of Vader's birth certificate.
Shiny space station fanfiction:
Babylon 5: Sleepover: a new (to me, anyway) Londo/G'Kar story is something to me treasured. *loves pioneered pairing as fervently as ever*
Deep Space Nine: In Due Season: the backstory of the Prophet(s) and Sisko's biological mother remains a tried and true red button for me, so I'm always glad to see someone tackle it intelligently and sensitively. As happens here.
