Reason 3,435,783 that I love Torchwood and Jack...

Via [livejournal.com profile] tw_gleeclub, who pointed out this bit of dialogue from TW 2.6, Reset:

MARTHA: Oh, I'm a camera!

JACK: As Chris Isherwood once said to me when we were cruising the Kurfurstendamm.

I imagine Jack, River and the Doctor bounce around history shagging awesome people.

Haha IKR? River was totally taking a dig at him with the Cleopatra garb. Also...



..Yes? No?

"Happy birthday, Mister Doctooooorr..."

"Shut up now."

"Happy birthday to yooouuu..."

Yeah my brain is dead too now.

OMG, you found the PERFECT PHOTO! <333333

That's my head cannon and I'm sticking to it.

I saw!!!! (The post and the icon, which is indeed fabulous!)

I was sort of reading and feeling lazy and therefore not commenting, but I'll be back.
promethia_tenk: (eleven amy hug)

[personal profile] promethia_tenk 2011-04-16 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm creepy like that ;)

(And now my whole brain is going *boing boing boing* Darn hypnotic icon!)
My icon spaces seem to be slowly changing into animated ponies . . . They're just so damn expressive! I tell myself, oh, one more can't hurt . . .

Boing, boing, boing . . .

If there's meta, you're bound to be there...
In point of fact, I woke up early this morning and decided to check on the internet . . . apparently my meta-sense was tingling *snerk* And, indeed, there was that post! But it was too early and I was still tired, so I said 'elisi's got it covered . . .' and went back to sleep. No, seriously.

AND THAT'S HOW THEY PLAN ON CONQUERING THE WORLD!!!
I am ok with this.

Oh! Although some people brought up a VERY good point: The staircase on the first floor of Amy's house...
Yeah, people keep going on about that. I'm not quite convinced but at the same time wouldn't be that surprised if it were relevant. The door in The Lodger and the front door to Amy's house are also very reminiscent of each other--same pattern of windows, red and blue stained glass, etc.

Not THAT should be on icons... *g*
Haha--I think I have to agree with you on that. Probably I shall wait until we have NEW FOOTAGE OMG, though because I'm sick of every cap from last season. Every last one.

I am rather tempted to just use this, though, because 1) *snerk* and 2) lol, whut?:

doctor with straw

Oh that makes perfect sense. (The upside of sharing a brain!)
IKR? Much obliged to you!

And I see you have already fallen under their spell... (I am trying, and failing, to think of a way to link this to the brainslugs from Futurama.)
Oh, MLP are totally like brainslugs. They just are. Just brainslugs that make you think about weirdly smart things and want to hug everybody. COME TO THE DARK RAINBOW SIDE!

This is the problem with Moffat - *anything* could mean something. My flailing is mostly due to never having noticed it before...
I think I would have dismissed it except for the Lodger connection since we know that plotline is coming back. If it was just a weird staircase I would be like *pfft*, weird location shooting stuff, whatever!

(As to the design of the doors, then that's just v. typical English. My in-law's front door is like that too.)
Ahhhh. To my eyes they're quite distinctive, so that's good to know. Thanks <3

I just realised that I wrote 'not' rather than 'now'. Glad you read what I was thinking rather than what my fingers decided to type...
:)

I find this a problem when it comes to vids (River vids especially)
Cinderbella asked for vid recs the other day, and I started her out with River ones. Looked down the whole list and I was like, heaven help her if she watches those all in a row--it'll be the same footage over and over and over and over . . . .

Less than a week. Less than a week. Less than a week.
I still don't actually believe this. I keep waiting for a realization to hit.

I think I'd been starved from not being near LJ most of last week due to work.
Haha! I think I sensed that. It was like hmmmmmm . . . half the comments on this post are elisi's--somebody's been feeling a bit cut off :)

...Maybe. If I can find the time.
To be honest, I enjoy badgering you about it more than I actually care about you watching *g* Of course, I think you should watch it--it's a great show. But then if you did watch it, I couldn't badger you to watch it, yes? Just smack me down if I get annoying. It's rather the perfect show for badgering with, though . . .

Might change yet tomorrow, but:

meta sense
promethia_tenk: (metaphors)

[personal profile] promethia_tenk 2011-04-21 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Might do variations on the theme once the season starts and we've got more footage (and a new 'metaphors' icon as well, because I'm getting tired of this one), but I loved that publicity shot and it demanded iconing!

The sheer O_o that is my icon set now pleases me greatly. How many different ways can you say 'twisty-turny layers of WTF-ness'? and yet each is a distinct and important concept totally necessary to the proper discussion of this show.

Possibly I shall be ruined for all other TV forever.

the detail on the dress being so similar really sealed it for me XD

Oh Moff, you and your fabulous BRAIN.
promethia_tenk: (hello sweetie)

[personal profile] promethia_tenk 2011-04-16 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
The most important thing is probably the hair, I think, but that dress detail O_O Is that from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes or something? Something famous?

*snerk* I remember when the Marilyn spoiler came out. I'd been thinking about the ToA opening, and it sort of hit me and I was like noooooo waaaaiii!

[personal profile] owlboy 2011-04-16 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it is, yes...She's wearing it on the CD cover for Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend...

Yes, I was trying to find the LJ conversation where we were both flipping out about it!
promethia_tenk: (Default)

[personal profile] promethia_tenk 2011-04-16 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it was on your journal. And it was definitely before the special aired--I'd heard the spoiler ahead of time.
promethia_tenk: (river amy surprise)

[personal profile] promethia_tenk 2011-04-16 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahahahahaah! Awesome.
