I am here again! I seriously need to go back to updating my LJ more. I will do that, I promise!

Anyway. I am here today for a very important reason. That is, I NEED TO FANGIRL ABOUT MY NEW FANDOM - SHERLOCK. ANYBODY WANT TO JOIN ME? ♥

( Spoilers, capslock & hearts. Yes, this is, indeed, a fangirling session about Sherlock. )

I've also watched Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law and I loved it! ♥ And you know what I just noticed? That all these actors that I love are doing something related to Sherlock Holmes. RDJ has done a movie, Benedict Cumberbatch is doing the BBC series... I wonder if some other actor will join in? XD It's like they all want me to read the books and get into the SH fandom. WELL IT'S WORKING

Ahem. Well, I believe I've fangirled enough for now. XD Oh, and I still need to go see the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. By the way, I noticed recently that I'm waiting for a lot of movies to be released. I'm waiting for Iron Man 3, The Avengers, Harry Potter: The Deathly Hallows Part II, The Dark Knight Rises, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows and, last but not least, The Hobbit by Peter Jackson! ♥ Oh my gosh, I'm so happy that Peter Jackson will be directing this movie! He's such a talented director and by far my favourite! ♥ ♥ Also, did I mention that Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch are going to be in it, as well?! SO MANY AWESOME MOVIES WITH SO MANY AWESOME PEOPLE, I DON'T EVEN. JUST. BRAIN CANNOT COPE.

On another fandom note, LEVERAGE IS BACK. ♥ ♥ ♥ I missed this show so much. I missed the awesome actors, ad well as the fantastic interaction between the characters. And the Nate/Sophie, oh gosh, I LOVE THIS PAIRING TO PIECES. ♥ Also, both Sterling and Tara are coming back in this season and I'm so happy about it, I love all the characters and I wish all of them would always be on the show. The plot is also going to be very interesting, as apparently someone is out to get the team... I can't wait for the next episodes!! ♥

And this somehow brings me to the point that... I had two dreams about Leverage. And one of them was the best dream ever.

( Cut for dreams. )

Oh, and by the way. I WANT A LEVERAGE/SHERLOCK CROSSOVER. I know it's never gonna happen, but I seriously want to see those two series collide. Imagine the reactions of the various characters! It would be awesome. Although I think Christian Kane and Benedict Cumberbatch in the same scene would be too much for the tv to handle. Heck, ALL the actors in the same scene would be too much awesome to handle! ... That's why I started writing a Leverage/Sherlock crossover fic. XD By the looks of it, it's gonna be a multi-chapter fic and right now the prologue is done and I'm starting to write chapter 1. Who knows when/if I'll be able to publish it? I hope I can do it soon, but first I'll need to write at least a few chapters. Wish me luck! :D

Well, that's it for this incoherent fandom post. XD I still need to comment the season finale of Gossip Girl, which, to my surprise, I actually enjoyed a lot. ♥

And I will reply to your comments, guys! I'm just... really slow at it. /headdesk

Well, everybody is spazzing about this, so I am going to spazz about it as well.

PROFESSOR LAYTON VS ACE ATTORNEY/GYAKUTEN SAIBAN.
ASDFGHJKL. I. MUST. BUY. THIS. GAME!!

Okay, I admit I've just recently started playing the first Layton game. Aaand I'm not exactly good at resolving puzzles. D: But I like the characters! And the mysteries! So I'm playing mostly because of that, haha. Oh, and I freakin' LOVE the Italian voices! asdfghjkl detective Kogoro ♥ (Layton's voice actor is the one that does Kogoro Mori's voice from Meitantei Conan. I am such a fangirl.) But yeah, it's a crossover with ACE ATTORNEY (and there will be Phoenix! YES!) and I effin' LOVE that game (mostly because I can be a lawyer, hehe. Also, I'm pretty good at those games, so that should compensate the fact that I can't solve puzzles, lol), so I'm going to buy it no matter what. *_* If it ever gets released outside Japan. I hope it does. or else I'll start a REVOLUTION and invade Japan with other fellow fans like me!

But it can only be played on a 3DS. This means I will need to buy the new console, or sell my DSi XL in exchange for the new one (which is what I did to get my DSi XL as well). But I like my current DS, it's so big and awesome! ;_; I will need to go through a lot of trouble to get this new game. Maybe I won't be able to afford it. As of now, I'm saving up for university, so I'm not buying any games/manga. But so many awesome games are being announced. It's so not fair.

And now. Another spazz attack, although it's not fangirl-ish.

WHAT THE HECK IS ELISABETTA CANALIS DOING IN SEASON 3 OF LEVERAGE?!? ASDFGHJKL NO. DO. NOT. WANT. I hope she's just going to "guest star" in one episode, because if she becomes a regular character I will be FOREVER MAD. FOREVER AND EVER. REALLY, REALLY MAD.

Sorry about that. I just found out and I needed to express my rage about this. For those of you who don't know her, she was a 'velina' for an Italian show (basically, all she had to do was dancing, showing off and being pretty in front of the camera), then she became an actress and she has also hosted some funny TV programmes. It bothers me that she's going to take part in Leverage because she has never done serious movies in Italy, just humor ones where she was the classic 'femme fatale' or whatever you call it, she never did big dramatic roles or anything. She was never that famous outside of Italy until she got together with George Clooney (I can't be bothered to check if they're still a couple or not). Personally, I don't like her acting (she's not a good actress, imho) and I think she has nothing to do whatsoever with Leverage. It's the wrong series for her. Go try to take over another series that nobody cares about, just leave Leverage alone! I can't even imagine her speaking English. Why do these kind of things have to happen to my favourite series? Every time I find a new TV show that I love - BAM! - something like this happens. I just hope she will appear in just one episode, two at the very least. Don't make her a regular character. Please. /prays

End of rage attack. Going to watch some TV and then going straight to bed. Next time I'll talk about something more serious. I think I have decided which universities I'm going to send my application to! :D It's so exciting... and yet so scary! XD;
