Scary just got sexy.

[castalie]

Man, the UK makes the sexiest, most gorgeous promos for their shows, ever! I mean, the Lost promo was a thing of beauty and now, with the Supernatural one, well, they just became my favourite promo makers. It's so classy, so arty [in a good way, I mean] and yeah so sexy. Why can't the Americans do the same? I guess they don't like subtlety as much as the English do :-)

And hee today is tuesday! Meaning that today is teh "Scarecrow", woohoo! Well tomorrow for me but still, it's Supernatural Tuesday! Which in a twisted kind of way reminds me that I still haven't downloaded the new Stargate so I'll have to do that soon *nods*

Unrelated now. You know that I don't take resolutions for the New Year but let's pretend I had taken one? It would have been to read more actual books this year - also, I thought it wasn't too big a not!resolution so it might be doable. And following that not!resolution, I'm now starting my third book of the month, so there's still hope for me. Let's just hope I'll follow the program *tries to look determined* Hey dont_callmebabe? I finished Mysterious Skin and it was brilliant! I'm thinking of getting the book for myself now :-) I'll also watch the DVD asap cause I'm curious to see what they did with the story.

Finally, another 100% unrelated subject. The third season of Kaamelott - Livre III in Kaamelottese - started last night and of course I wasn't there and only came back for the very last episode, ie the tournament one but it's okay because a) I could have missed the whole thing and b) a bit of Kaamelott is better than no Kaamelott at all which actually is another a) in disguise lol But still.

I was laughing my ass off at what I saw and I have the feeling the third season is going to be a blast too - not that I had any doubt, mind! Case in point, the following scene which killed me dead because man, it was pure Gauvin and Yvain. Also, I know le Père Blaise et Calogrenant were there, but I'm not sure who said what so don't take my words for it as such, all right?

Gauvin et Yvain se battent en duel - comme deux blaireaux ai-je envie de dire - devant une foule pas franchement enthousiaste, un Arthur en train de dormir et un père Blaise et Calogrenant un peu désespérés de la nullité du combat. Au bout d'un moment Arthur se réveille un peu et décide de faire du combat un combat à mort, il baisse donc le pouce pour indiquer ce nouveau développement.

Gauvin : Ca veut dire quoi le pouce baissé, déjà ?
Yvain : Ah alors ça je l'ai su à une époque, mais j'ai oublié.
Le Père Blaise : Il s'agit d'un combat à mort.
Gauvin : Mais alors dans le contexte, ça veut dire quoi exactement ?
Calogrenant : Ca signifie que vous allez combattre jusqu'à ce que l'un de vous deux meure.
Gauvin : De vieillesse?

Man, I have so much LOVE for my French show *hugs Kaamelott* Also, classy: new outfits, new haircuts - and hey, new credits? Impressive *nods*

SPN today:
Uhm, how long do you think/know from experience it'll take for a torrent to appear anywhere? It'll be my first time downloading the show myself (because, whee, DSL finally arrived) so I don't really know where and when to look for it.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Well it depends - like, I know that for Numb3rs, there was a time when the torrent appeared in the morning, now torrents seem to appear later.

In any case, to find your torrent, try either torrentspy (http://www.torrentspy.com/) or mininova (http://www.mininova.org/) - and try the latter first, as torrentspy has been letting me down a bit lately, what with putting up the torrent later than the other and all that...

[nilyveth.livejournal.com]

W00t, thank you. I'll try that.

[nilyveth.livejournal.com]

Aw, and Mysterious Skin. I've always wanted to see that one (it has 10 Things I hate about you and Numb3rs DK co-star dude after all)... It's good, yeah?

[castalie.livejournal.com]

I can't talk about the movie as I haven't watched my DVD yet, only read the book but the book is indeed brilliant. Disturbing - it deals with pedophilia and all kind of delicate subjects - but the story is written beautifully and the characters are really interesting and moving and I was hooked.

[nilyveth.livejournal.com]

Yes, I read about the conents and thought it sounded very interesting. The DVD a bit expensive though, I think I'll have to share with my friend...

[castalie.livejournal.com]

When I was told what the story contained - non-con, prostitution - I have to say I was intrigued and thought I would like it, which I did. The author dealt with all those subjects in a very wonderful way. It was disturbing as it should be, but everything else is - I don't know, moving, aching, you really feel for those characters and hope they'll finally be able to find some peace...

So for someone who knows they could stand that kind of subject, I'd definitely rec the book - or the DVD, as it hopefully is as good as the book it's based on.

[nilyveth.livejournal.com]

Wow, that sounds really worth the try. I'll definitely take a look for at least the book.
Thank you!

[castalie.livejournal.com]

You're welcome :-)

[dont-callmebabe.livejournal.com]

Mysterious Skin is one of my favorites movies by now, so I can't say I am being objective here, But I definitely recommend you to watch it asap :)

[nilyveth.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'll definitely see what I can do. Thank you <3.

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Oh man. I get back online and the first thing I see is there's a UK promo for Supernatural, and I haven't seen it!

What's up with that!?

Guess I'll have to go looking, both in reality and online *g*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

It always makes me smile when I get to see a promo - American or English - before people who actually live in the country. Internet is funny like that lol

If you can't find it, I'll upload my file for you - I mean, you have to see it, it's gorgeous!

[nilyveth.livejournal.com]

winterlive posted it on YSI (http://s15.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=03ARO6VFP11JK3PP4DG0AY9NKK) =).

[turps33.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

I grabbed the download at the time. It's great to be able to watch it at any time :)

[greedy_dancer]

excellent la promo!! makes me want to watch it, in any case. promo in the US and in Australia seems to be on the exact opposite principle: "let's see how much of the defining moments of the show we can squeeze into 10 seconds!" aka "spoilerfest" ... grrr!

et Kaamelott ct trop bon, meme si j'ai pas vu tt la saison 2 donc j'ai pas trop capté la situation au depart ... mais bon je pense que ca a pas tellement d'importance de tte facon!

[french-hobbit.livejournal.com]

... mais bon je pense que ca a pas tellement d'importance de tte facon!
Pas vraiment non... ah si : y a Lancelot qui a confessé à Bohort qu'il était amoureux de la reine (et ils étaient tous les deux dans le lit de Lancelot à ce moment là gniark gniark)

[moimoietmoi.livejournal.com]

y a Lancelot qui a confessé à Bohort qu'il était amoureux de la reine (et ils étaient tous les deux dans le lit de Lancelot à ce moment là gniark gniark)
Non! C'est vrai?! *morte de rire*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

et ils étaient tous les deux dans le lit de Lancelot à ce moment là gniark gniark

En fait, quand on y pense, c'est Lancelot qu'on trouve toujours au lit avec des mecs ! Arthur d'abord, Bohort ensuite... c'est un homme facile, finalement *giggles*

[french-hobbit.livejournal.com]

Ouais ! Il mériterait une icone "Kaamelott's slut" *thinks about it*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Ces anglais, ils font des promo de ouf, je les adore ! Elles sont vraiment trop belles.

Bah disons que y a des petits détails de chaque saison qui reviennent à chaque fois - mais je vois qu'on t'a déjà expliqué plus haut, donc ça va :-)

[moimoietmoi.livejournal.com]

Wow! The UK promo for Supernatural is sexy!

*pouts*
I keep missing the Kaamelott episodes! :(

[castalie.livejournal.com]

It's sexy, isn't it? I love it *g*

Damn, it's like a curse or something with you lol

[moimoietmoi.livejournal.com]

Damn, it's like a curse or something with you lol
That's so damn true! lol

[castalie.livejournal.com]

You should start making your mobile ring when Kaamelott is on again :-)

[dont-callmebabe.livejournal.com]

*shrugg* You can keep it if you'd like. As I told you earlier, I wasn't able to read it till the end for that matters...

But The movie got me hyper.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Eeeee you're serious?! Man, THANK YOU! I positively loved the book, and I'm all excited that you're giving it to me. Wow, great pressie again!

[catiadoodle.livejournal.com]

I really hope you like the movie, it's very compelling. A beautiful, beautufil film.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Since I thought the book itself was very compelling and a beautiful story, I can only hope I'll love the film as well ;-)
