The Fangirly Diary of a Geek Girl: This star of England, Glamour made his prize
FRIDAY
Marvel keeps with its campaign to make a poor woman out of me: they have announced a 10-Disc collector’s set on Blu-ray for what they call the Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One – Avengers Assembled.
And I don’t even own a Blu-ray player!
Moments later, a fellow YAM writer Facebook tagged me on this bit of news. Sadako 3D will get the 4D treatment. Yup, a whole new level of horror! And while the 4D movie theather in my country won’t be ready until next year (or so they say), considering the delay of Asian movies in our market, I’m hopeful I’ll get to enjoy it in all its creepy glory!
The creepiness went away soon though, because I got cuteness overload with the LotR Lego trailer. Sure, it’s supposed to represent a dramatic part of Fellowship of the Ring, but I was just squeeing all over the place.
And then, it was confirmed. We had the first images of Alan Scott, the Golden Age Green Lantern and now the Green Lantern of Earth 2, and his cute boyfriend Sam! Of course, the internet exploded, especially Twitter. I spent the whole day laughing at the ignorant non-geeks who confused Green Lanterns. This tweet explains it better:
I’m imagining Hal Jordan spending all day saying “No, not me, the other one. Not that there’s anything wrong with that …”
But my week will end with a blast from the past. Did you know there’s gonna be a Spice Girls musical on the West End called Viva Forever? Apparently the Spice Girls themselves will attend the openning night. And yes, my inner 13-year-old is jumping up and down.
Yeah, I feel so old now.
–
That’s it! Come back next week and I will probably be over The Avengers by then… Meanwhile, and because it made me lol so much, How The Avengers Should Have Ended. Farewell!
Okay… GDI!
As a matter of fact, two young men kissing is one of my favourite things (along with whiskers on kittens and brown paper packages tied up with string)!!!
And 4D… THE HELL EVEN IS THAT?!?!?!?! Does the film come out and give you a hug and tuck you in??? I dont’ even know how to feel about that!
And all I can say is I HATE THAT I CAN’T SEE THE SPICE GIRLS MUSICAL!!! SOOOOO NOT FAIR. This isn’t my inner 13-year-old. This is my everyday existence as I live and breathe and work on people’s taxes! Ugh… why do I live in America where I can’t do anything? Life… not amazing!
Now on to not so squee-like flailing… I can’t say I’m stoked about Les Mis. I actually think if you saw Phantom first, Les Mis just doesn’t stack up. I mean, I saw Phantom in New York three years before I saw Les Mis in London and not even the European epicness could make me like that musical. *sigh* Sorry to say this isn’t very exciting for me.
But everything else… BEYOND AMAZING!
@Camiele, lol, it’s just that since I’m from Peru, I’ve never seen a grand-scale musical live, so Phantom I only saw dvds or online and while it was awesome, it was never as awesome as the rendition I’ve seen of Les Miserables XD Plus, I loved Victor Hugo’s book more than Gaston Leroux’s XD
@mirella, Granted. Hugo’s book is unreal. One of my favourites, actually. But, it makes sense of you’ve only seen them on DVD. I get where you’re coming from. But still… 4D WHAT IS THAT?!?!?!?!
@Camiele, 4D is when the seats of the theater move, there’s breeze or hot, or smells… anything to add to the “cinematic” experience… which a scary movie, it will be interesting… let’s see if some people don’t pee their pants XD
@mirella, …O.o Oh. My. SHIT!!!!! That’s quite possibly the most intense thing I’ve ever heard in my life. You just blasted my mind.
You don’t usually like musicals? I thought you were the type of having a little gay man inside you. AND OMG, SPICE GIRLS VIVA FOREVER MUSICAL O_O xD
Also, is it going to be Charlize Theron’s week or what? Evil Queen and Co. then Prometheus? Back to back?
@amy, who doesn’t like musicals?
@Mirella, sorry. I misread. Blame it on the Chinese xD so it is like the writing team in here has a little gay man inside of each…
