SQUEEEEE!

Peter Jackson has optioned the Temeraire series. With the dragons. And the Napoleonic Wars. I'm literally tripping over myself with the squee, because Peter Jackson and the LoTR movies are why I'm fandom, you know?


Also, as far as casting Laurence goes, Jack Davenport FTW! Who's with me?

You are the third post IN A ROW on my f-list with this EXACT information. ;) You're dorks, the whole lot of you!

Back to Latin. (Did that just negate my insult?)

Yes, yes it does. I'm sorry. You fail. I am using my bitch please icon to show my contempt for your misguided attempts at mockery. :P

(Also, you obviously need to read the books before you say such things, as they are awesome!!!)

*smug* You cannot overcome the power of Harold from Everwood with a bagel and a pissy expression. Trust me on this.

Also, I soooperlove your icon. That movie was adorable, and the -sparkly!- is so SPARKLY! Eee!

I know! It's so shiny and happy (and obviously a part of my DVD collection). That movie marks the beginning of my giant crush on Jennifer Garner as she actually is the most aborable thing on the planet.

But....but...she took ratings from X-Files! *fandom angst*

Her dancing to "Love is a Battlefield" has got to be one of my favorite things I have ever seen. MAKES ME SO HAPPY, KTHNXBAI. *squee*

He! Yes, dancing in PJs to bad 80s tunes should be my default setting. :)

Also, THE WORLD DOES NOT HATE ME YOU SUCK MAYBE I WON'T CALL YOU ANYWAY.

MAYBE YOU WILL.
YOU WANNA TAKE THIS OUTSIDE.

*shrieks*

*dances*

I-is Paul McGann too old? *futile hope* Although, Jack Davenport, hmm...

[identity profile] merelyn.livejournal.com 2006-09-12 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
He would be perfect! I've always pictured Jack Davenport in the main role.

Also- and this will never happen- David Hewlett needs to make a cameo as Napoleon and my life would be complete.

[identity profile] emhen.livejournal.com 2006-09-12 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
BWAH! Genius! And he could have a little hat, and he could put his hand in his coat when posing for pictures! (Oh, Lord, now my head is full of Rodney!Napoleon and John!Josephine. WHYYYY.)

[identity profile] merelyn.livejournal.com 2006-09-12 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Obviously fandom has wired my brain (as if that really needs to be stated) but when I read her physical description of Napoleon in the book, I immediately went, "It's David Hewlett! It's David Hewlett!"

Also, YES!! That would be an unbelievably cracked out AU. Rodney as a French dictator is brilliant in and of itself, but even more awesome/terror-inducing is the image of Joe Flanigan in a ridiculously ornamented dress. With a crown. Oh god.

*puts head DOWN*

*pokes* Hey, GUESS WHAT?

...dammit, you already know. ♥


*gets her ass to bed* Way to make me an insomniac for the 4th night running! When I die of exhaustion, my tombstone will point in your general direction. I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY.

♥ I am happy, actually. :)

(Also, aw, I get the Han/Leia icon. *feels special*)

You are still up! YOU LIARFACE. I mean, not that you said you were asleep, but... Hee.

How can you flail properly if you don't get the right amount of sleep? Your teacher will be most displeased. :)

And here, have a slashy fakenewsman icon for good measure. :)

Sleep well!
