Christmas (video) presents for all my Whovians out there


I know it's the day after Christmas, but I did say I had a few videos I wanted to share, and I like keeping my word so here they are! They're both Doctor Who related, so I apologise to those that either aren't as obsessed as I am, or don't care (though, if you don't care, you're in the wrong place).

Enjoy, and Merry Christmas once again!
(And, just because there's still 50 hours, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that people will support this well deserved project: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cocoabash/what-the-f-is-going-on)

David Tennant's face of the day

I'm going to apologise profusely for being M.I.A. and try and defend myself by saying it's finals week. I've only got one final (accounting) and one presentation left, but it might as well be a million, considering how these last three days have been.

Donna and the Babes


Source: couldbeanythingthereforenothing.tumblr.com
I don't know if you can read it or not, but it says "Karen and the Babes have some competition."

I think I can say this falls into the category of things I would kill to see, a sing off between Karen Gillian, Arthur Darvill, Matt Smith and David Tennant, Catherine Tate, and John Barrowman. Notice how they each have a lady ginger to be there lead.

David Tennant's face of the day

I realize that just saying I'm going to be productive usually ends up with me being less productive than I would have been otherwise. So from now on I'm just going to start making "to do" lists, because the sense of accomplishment I get from crossing an item off is quite fantastic.

Alright folks, time to learn how to do basic book keeping, exciting right?

David Tennant's face of the day

People who I wish were my friends: those two, Rowling, Viggo Mortensen, Sir Ian Mckellen, Orlando Bloom (mostly because I feel like he'd convince me to do crazy things I've always wanted to do like bungee jumping and sky diving), Donald Glover, Eddie Izzard, Ludacris, Will Smith, Chris Rock, Jon Stewart, Seth Green, Joss Whedon...there's probably more, I should just stop listing famous people.

Maybe Sartre if he were alive, but probably only in small doses. There's a finite amount of existentialism that I can take, and I wouldn't want to really become a hipster.

This gif basically embodies their entire dynamic and relationship. It's wonderful.

David Tennant's face of the day

Faces of the day, once again, but those two pictures go together and I couldn't not put them in the same post. I'm just going to take a brief moment of your time to fawn over the utter epicness that are Donna Noble and David Tennant, the ultimate dream team.

David Tennant's face of the day

Source: killerqueen-.tumblr.com

I guess "David Tennant's face(s) of the day with a cameo from Donna's face" would be much more appropriate, but that's a mouthful, so let's not change anything.

Re-watching the new series has made me realize that Donna and Rose were right, the Doctor does need someone to stop him every once in a while. The thing is though, Martha and Amy don't really do that. Don't get me wrong, I adore them both (Amy more so than Martha, but only because Martha overrides her own awesomeness by constantly doe eyeing the Doctor and being offended that he doesn't return the favour, though sans him she regains her badassery), but they more or less seem to let the Doctor do his thing.

It's almost like Martha is so in awe of him that she lets that get in the way of being 'maybe you should chill out now.' I'm being a little harsh, I know and I'm equally aware that that's not always true, but that is only because I've seen the future (my computer doubles as a TARDIS) and I know that in her own right Martha can handle her shit. So seeing her moon after the Doctor and suddenly turn into a clueless, possessive and unnecessarily jealous entity when crises strikes, the Doctor mentions Rose, or doesn't suddenly declare 'Martha Jones, you're the only companion for me! hurts my soul a little.

I'm going to have to reevaluate Amy's behaviour, and also wait for her run to end, before making final calls on her, but from wot I can remember of series five and six it seems like she's more content in doing her own thing and getting herself in trouble than really helping the Doctor.

I know Rose has her 'quoi?' moments too, and she's no stranger to screwing up and jealousy mooning after the Doctor, but I feel like she held her own more often than not. Also, as Willow Rosenberg so rightfully put it "love makes you do the wacky." (Yes, I just used love as a legitimate excuse, wotchagonnadoaboutit?) If none of that satisfies you, she's the Bad Wolf, she created herself. Your argument is invalid.

As for Donna, well let's not even get started on how epic she is. I don't think I'd be able to put it into words if I tried.

David Tennant's face of the day


I'm back! I had an amazingly wonderful time in London the past three days, and managed to not only watch the last Harry Potter movie, but also see David Tennnant and Catherine Tate do a spectacular performance as Benedick and Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing. I know my bias could probably flood the world, but those two were absolutely spectacular. Talk about stage presence! I was completely awestruck, the moment I set eyes on them. 

To be fair, a friend of mine, who barely knew who Teninch was before the play (and he calls himself a Brit! Though he absolutely adores Ms. Tate so I can't mock-rage too much), was talking about how your eyes just automatically went to them when they were onstage, even if they were in the background of the scene. Everything they did, every movement or sigh or expression had a purpose and was completely on point. It was almost a bit distracting, but not in a way that would make me complain. Of course, their dynamic is incomparable to any of the other actors. They just seem to be really in sync with each other, you could see it even in the way they stood. On another note, the actor who played the Prince (who's name I can't remember, for the life of me) looked almost exactly like Bruce Willis, it was frightening and slightly disconcerting too. Bruce Willis with a British accent.

It's so strange, I'm sure I'll gush a little more about this at another time, but it almost feels like it didn't happen. My whole trip to London went by in one giant roller-coaster rivaling blur of grey skies and cliched rain and flurry of emotions

David Tennant's face of the day

Thom Yorke (from Radiohead) and David Tennant being wonderful, and, if I can interpret the expressions well enough, our lovely Doctor might or might not have been poking fun at Thom. Thom has that look in the first panel that seems to indicate trying to hold back a return jibe while being highly amused.

Also, I'm pretty sure that's our wonderful Catherine Tate's half that sticking out of the second picture.

Partners in Crime

Those two are amazing together. I don't think Ten could have found himself a better best friend. Though, having Captain Hotsauce as his lover would have been rather...saucy (I went there). But still, Donna and Ten are the epitome of a dream team, and she kept him grounded and drew the line when necessary. The most important person in the universe indeed.

Things I would like for my birthday

1. To see Much Ado About Nothin with David Tennant and Catherine Tate (in London, of course)
2. To go to Six Flags
3. To see the last Harry Potter, on the night it premiers

4. Original Doctor Who, all of them, on DVD
5. A Sonic Screwdriver (or the Time Lord pocketwatch thing, that would be awesome too, I'd just never open it because I'd tell everyone my Time Lord memories would be in it, and if I release it they'd find me).

6. A functional typewriter I could use to...well, type

This episode was amazing, all the wonderful companions and Captain Hotsauce and Mickey. It was just an amalgamation of my favourite people, minus the Doctor's Daughter and The Master.

Pretty Boy: Revisited

River: Pretty Boy, with me I said.
The Doctor: Oh, I’m Pretty Boy? 
Donna: Yes. Oh, that came out a bit quick.
The Doctor: Pretty?
Donna: Meh.
