Look What The Cat Dragged In!

 Hey, I'm back! I've been busy this year, but I'm gonna try and remedy that! I have some reviews/plans.

• A little thing about why I like Hannibal, and why the show is such a good one.
• I am going to finish my Supernatural Recap/Retrospective/Review Things
• I want to do a whole thing of the Top 9(?) Worst Things About Season 9 of Supernatural...
• ...And a list of some of the  admittedly good things.
• I'll review season 3 of Sherlock
• I might possibly get around to reviewing X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men Origins: Wolverine (properly!), and X-Men: First Class
• Heck, I might even review each episode of Hannibal, season 1! (It's about 12 or 13 episodes, I can manage it).

 That's the plan. Best get on it.

Quick What I Plan To Do...

Hey. It's been a long time, hasn't it? Sorry, it's been crazy for a while, but I have some post ideas for the future...

-I'll finish my Supernatural season reviews. (well, 3-8...)

-I also have a little piece about my problems with the character Ezekiel in Supernatural.

-A review of the podcast Welcome To Night Vale.

-And of course, my yearly Thanksgiving Thank-You Notes...

 So, yeah, that's the plan, hopefully... 

200th Post Special! Loveable Freak Reviews Sherlock: The Unaired Pilot

  Oh hey, I've gotten to 200 posts! And so soon after the 2nd Anniversary of the blog! *squee* If only I could've had both the same day...

  Anyway, I wanted to do something special. Last year, I did my first MST of a Sherlock Holmes Trollfic. I thought that maybe this time, I could do a review of something. But it would have to be something special...

  ..I'm going to review the unaired pilot version of "A Study In Pink"!

  Yes, back in the distant year of 2009, when David Tennant was The Doctor and every celebrity ever was dying, Moffat and Co. shot the pilot episode for his an Gatiss's fanboy brainchild, Sherlock. The original pilot, while still the same story, is different than the finished product, a big difference being it's 60 minutes as opposed to 90 (BBC requested they change the format. And bless them for it!). So, how does it compare to the final product we know and love? Come along, readers!

  Just in case... Erm...

 
  Like I said, the story is pretty much the same. Ex-Soldier meets Man. Ex-Soldier finds out Man is a Consulting Detective. Consulting Detective drags Ex-Soldier along to solve a case of serial suicides. Ex-Soldier and Consulting Detective start World's Greatest Bromance. Pretty simple. The difference is the execution.

  Since it is 60 minutes long, there are notable things missing in the story. For example, we never see John's Afghanistan dreams, or flashbacks to the "suicides" of the victims (here it's 5 instead of 4. Yes, Moffat actually resisted killing an extra person... I'm shocked too, Wholockians...), and there's no fake drugs bust. But a big exception has to be that the entire Mycroft subplot and the mention of Moriarty are absent from the first episode. AND PILOTLOCK (as I'm calling it) HAS NO DEDUCTION SUBTITLES! D: THOSE ARE CUMBERLOCK'S THING! It's really weird.

  In fact, a lot of things in this pilot are really weird. It all feels so... off from what I'm used to. The actors are delivering the same lines, but they feel different. Mostly the delivery. For example, take the whole "What happened to the lipstick...Your mouth's too small now..."/"Okay." exchange between Sherlock and Molly became sadder with how Loo Brealey delivered it here. I mean, it was already kinda sad but a little funny in the original, since to me her tone kinda sounded like she was going to put the lipstick back on again. Here, she sounds just sad. And in need of a hug.

  Plus, on the technical side, the sets are different and feel weird too. The mortuary is so dark and feels so dreary and the flat feels so claustrophobic (and the paint is gaudy). The video quality is not as polished, too (though maybe that's just lighting... :/). Even the freaking soundtrack feels off! THE FREAKING SOUNDTRACK! I know it's just the pilot they used to get the show picked up, and they most likely didn't have the same budget they have the actual show, but it's almost into "uncanny valley" territory for me. Or at least, weird AU.

 Also, Donavan is played by a different actress (she must be a Time Lady!) and Anderson has a beard. He shaved it, but it doesn't matter. It'll still be there... waiting.

  But, there still are additions to this original version of "A Study In Pink" that aren't in the final product. For example, we actually see Lestrade at the crime scene of one of the murders (before the one Sherlock stepped in).Mrs. Hudson apparently was originally supposed to own Speedy's in this strange alternate world (the sign read "Mrs. Hudson's Snax and Sarnies" in Comic Sans. Bless her heart... (Also, before my fellow non-Brits Google it, a "Sarny" is just another word for "sandwich". See, this educational!) The way Sherlock runs into the serial killer and the most of the third act is different, too. Plus, Sherlock gets to be Batman! :D

 Also, there are some nice Easter Eggs in this scene where Sherlock sends emails. He sends one to Mycroft (with the famous "when you've eliminated the impossible" line, one to Gregson (yes, further confirmation he exists in this world), and one to a Jones (don't know which Jones, but hey! Another Canon inspector exists! *Insert character development joke at Elementary's expense here*). Another thing I caught while pausing was the article on Lestrade in the newspaper John was reading. From the visible snippet, you can kinda get some insight into Lestrade's situation from his perspective. Apparently he was facing "mounting pressure under the watchful eye of the new police commissioner and Mayor of London" to solve the case. My poor, sweet, silver-haired, probably-in-his-late-forties-when-they-shot-this baby. In fact, that whole thing makes me realize I'd love to see the whole series from Lestrade's perspective... I CALL FANFIC DIBS!

  And, as much as I complained about line delivery feeling off, some of the lines and scene changes I preferred here. Special mention goes to the way the "and I said "dangerous"" and "either way, you're wasted as a cabbie" are delivered.

 Anyway, let's get to Final Thoughts:

• Favorite parts are the new third act, "Drunk"!Sherlock, and when Sherlock has his Batman moment. (Honorable mention goes to the dinner conversation, which is somehow even more awkward...)
• Wait, so Sherlock had a man named "Davies" arrested? I see now how Moffat came to be in-charge of Doctor Who...
• So Cumberlock just splashes it into his face, Millerlock can't/won't drink... Is Downeylock the only one with no problems with alcohol?
• I swear, Benedict's voice sounds higher here... and that Cumberlock had an extra shot of sass in his coffee...
• Also, what was up with Stamford's accent here? Sounded different... I couldn't place it, it was throwing me off...
• "Halfway Decent Murders" is so my new band name... Or my Tumblr's name if I ever break down and get one...
• "We're searching for a psychopath?" "So we're having another psychopath help out?" Hey, it worked for Silence of the Lambs, Anderson! (Also, apparently Anderson is a doctor... This is news to me...)
• "Feed you up"? Is that what they called it in 2009? Either way, I'm using that euphemism now...
• John, do you go to nice restaurants with all your male companions... See, this is why the "Defensively Heterosexual John Watson" meme exists... (Sorry, I couldn't resist the joke...)

  ...So, that's my two cents on the pilot. Yeah, it's bizarre, seeing how the show is now, but it wasn't so bad. Still wouldn't trade the final "A Study in Pink" for this one, though. You can find the pilot either on the Season 1 DVD/Blu-Ray or on the Internet somewhere.

  Thanks for sticking around for the 200th post, here's to 200 more!

  Next post, I want to try that MST/Review thing I've been wanting to experiment with...

I'm Not Dead, Let's Start Blogging

 Sorry I haven't blogged in weeks, and that Marvel May didn't quite work out like I hoped. I didn't realize all the stuff that was going to happen that month, I got sucked into Twitter, I wasn't in a reviewing mood after that Elementary review, and I'm just freaking lazy. It's my biggest fault.

  Anyway, this is just a post to assure my followers I'm okay. (Hannibal gets a second season, how could I not be okay?) And I kinda wanted to state my plans:

-I feel bad about not at least finishing the X-Men reviews, so I'm going to finish those. (Plus, I have First Class now! So there's that...)

-I think I'll do a final overall review of Elementary just to vent out any residing thoughts...

-In the interest of expanding my horizons, I think I might start reviewing some fanfics and/or video games. (Or books...)

-I also wanna do an MST of this fanfic that is just... Not good... (with a twist).

-More reviews as they come up

-Website/Blog/Net Stuff Apreciations

-Also, I'm toying with the idea of doing a sort of "commentary" on that fanfic I did. It'll be like an MST of sorts...

-Other Stuff

...So sorry I've been quiet, I promise I'll try and get back to blogging!

MST #2: Doctor Huh?

  Hey, you know what? I feel like finally MSTing something again! This is another one of Sue Mary's works (we all remember "her", right?) But this time, she takes into the world of Doctor Who... I think... It's madness. (Madness? THIS! IS! TROLLFIC!)

  Well, in the words of Eleven, Geronimo!

(EDIT: I Fixed this because I was having issues with the font color, it should be all good now! :D)

Doktor Hoo is a pretty cool dude eh doesnt afraid of anything. But wat wud happen if an evil one? Or Supahman was dere? That was the inpiration for this story!

...Well, I'm sure this will be a well-written piece of literary masterpiece...

Doctor Huh?

A Originial an Offisial Fanfict by Soo Maree

 

...Or not...
 

City Town, Plaent Earf, ats place da Daily Bungle noos was getting made with peoples like Lowes Layne and Cark Kentle.

 

I visited City Town, Plaent Earf once! It was nothing like the brochure.

 

“SOPT TEH PRESSES!” Goonzo elled to lowd sonds. “Sum body is rubbing the bank!”

...Um... o-kay... so some weirdo's rubbing the bank... must be a slow news day. Does the guy think he's going to get a genie?

Also, WHO THE HECK IS "GOONZO"? Is that like Gonzo from The Muppets? Do they all work for a muppet?

...That would be awesome.

 

Chlark new wat he had 2 do so he jumped ot the winnow and landed at fone booth. He go inot the fone booth and taked off all his cloths. Leetle did anyone no Clark Kempt was aslo… SUPAHMAN!

Ohmygosh my mind is totally blown! I mean, who ever thought the guy who looks just like Superman in glasses was actually Superman? Next you're going to tell me Jim from IT and Richard Brook on Sherlock are both Moriarty. Or that Bruce Wayne is Batman or something crazy like that...

 

Bu when Clark as fooly nakd some1 sayd “WAT ARE U DOIN IN MY HOSE!?!”

 

...Wait, I thought Superman wore his suit under his clothes...

 ...And what is he doing in a someone's hose? ...I'm disturbed to know about your sick personal life, Supes...

 

A man of british and so much bowtie was stare at hims.

 

GREATEST. ELEVENTH DOCTOR DESCRIPTION. EVAH!

 

 Eh had a majik scroodiver that was mad of siense.

 

GREATEST. SONIC SCREWDRIVER DESCRIPTION. EVAH!

 

 “I am tryin to chanje to supa mode why U here?” Supes asked bakk. “I am DOCTOR HOO I life here in da Fone Booth its call TURDIS and go on space ventures.”

 

Ahem... there are so many things wrong with this.

1.  He's just "The Doctor".
2. Technically, it's a Police Box, and
3. It's spelled "TARDIS".

 ...Carry on.

Also:

“Well I haft o stop a bnak rubrery.” Auperman titened his pecs to show he was s a strung heero. “NO! U will be my companon and we wiil fite my evil twin Doctor Huh?!”

I like how The Doctor's more or less kidnapping him. But if I've learned anything from The Nostalgia Critic, it's that if he calls it an adoption, it's okay! :D

 Supearamn didant like this develtement and pressed body against the fone booth winnow to so pepole cold see him and no he was in danger “HEY U KIDDIES HELP ME IM BEEN KIDNAPPED!”

Yes, oh Man of Steel! Ask the small children to help you. They will surely be assets...

...

...Wait...


Supes yelled to sum kiddies but Supeaman was still covered in naked so teh kiddies only saw his huge ‘kelp bunny’ and balls so they were tramartized and scared for life an experimented wif all the otters.

...

Uhh...

...

...I have no proper way to react to this...
 

Da TARTIS got a big rosacea unner neath that blowed up to make it floo up to hier and it wass in spaece Doctor Who sat at Superman “Wach out there isp ace traffic.” 

 "But Doctor, couldn't we just go through the time stream to a time where space traffic isn't so bad? This is a time machine, right?"

 "No, this is ace traffic. Completely... Different. You can't avoid it. It's a fixed point. Plus, it's so... acey-wacey..."

And they was caut in a traffik jum. The Normanty flied if by and hit space fone booth so Doktor Hoo got angried “Hey stope doin that Mormondy!!!!!i13”

What the HECK is a "Normanty"? Or "Mormondy"? Whatever... 

“Its not my falt dat my game endin is bad I am not sorree!” Commamary Shepared grubeed and floo off but the exhast made TURDIS span sidewise and not get no were.

Oh, it's from thse Mass Effect game I've never played. With that ending I keep hearing about. Since I have little knowledge of the series besides that, I'm just going to nod and laugh politely...
 “OH no I AM have a sickly!” Supemon blowed up chunks all over DOKOTR WHO was really mad at the dirty of his place. 

  Man, Digimon have gotten weird since I've watched it...

“Stop burfing up my playse u jerk!IU!IO” Superman did not sorry at Docta becos he was relay made n’ ungry at the supanap. 

"I barf in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries."

 "Is there someone else I can adventure with?"

 "No. Now go away or I shall spray you a second time..."

 

Bajck on Earth the bank rub was goin down supper bad.

"I keep rubbing this inanimate object, but nothing's happening! I WANT MY DANG GENIE!"
“Gife me alls da money or ill shot yuo all up!2o” 

  THREATENING THE GENIE WITH VIOLENCE WILL NOT COMPEL IT TO COME TO YOU!

Tihs was no orindary rubber it was… DOCTOR HUH!!!!

What a twist!
“OK OK heers all are monee just dot kill us weer good dudes.” The bak manajerk did so much of handing the mones. “I will rub all the banks and becos I HAVE ROSACEAS!!! All the pepole gapped at his huge rosaceas reddy to fire an kill.

What kind of freaky skin condition do you have? Is it a Time Lord thing?
None cold stop Doktor Huh or cold they….?

No. No they can't. Maybe someone warmer, though... 

Meenwhile at the same time Doktor HOO an Spuman were still in spase lookin for Doctor Huh no noin that hes rubbing the banks!

Well, that would probably be awkward for The Doctor, knowing he's related to a weirdo who rubs banks..
 “He is cloose now.” But sum robots that was like trasscans but not amd had plujer wepons attacked.

Oh, no. Tell me they're not...
Superman codant used his powers becos he was nekked an didant want pepole to see him like that.

Still? Eleven, what is it with you and not properly clothing people when you go on your first TARDIS adventures together?
“Oh no thoss robots!” Doktor used his majerk crewdriver to make a spase helmut to go to out and combat wif dem.

 Hey, it's that Sonic Screwdriver power we've never seen! And yet, it still can't do wood... 

The robost fired bad stuff at Doctor Hoon but he had a sheelds to they refelcted back to kill a few. “EXSANGUINATE!!!IO1~~1111”

NO! It is... The Daleks! (And they aren't robots. They're more like aliens in robot suits/alien cyborg thingies... (that's putting it scientifically))
 Sai the robots and they fried rosaceas at Doktor Woos place were Superman was. A big rosacea hittled him rite in da face and it mades Supes supah angory.

"NO!! MY BEAUTIFUL FACE HAS A SKIN CONDITION! YOU WILL PAY!!!" (I apologize to anyone with rosacea, I mean no offence, BTW)

“All rite its time for wat I lik to call: DA KRYPTONIAN SLUSHY!11io!” Auper floo in thru space and sarted to kill them but taking the robots an put ebtween his pekkz to skwish them all hard till they was like slussy.

Superman just crushed some Daleks in between his pecks.

Superman just crushed some Daleks in between his pecks.

...Wrap your head around that.

Doctor Who was ver impressed at powerful move. “Now dat was a REEL FITE. Yur more powaful than I thotted, Supermens.” Doktor What congratulationed with British integrity.

"...congratulationed with British integrity." That is the greatest phrase in this whole fic.
“ALLER TI FOWND DOKTOR HUH!” Sayd the TARDIS space commuter. “HE IS RUBBING THE BANK!!iuo1”

OHMYGOSHWHATATWISTIHADNOIDEA!

 Supes and Doktah gapsed, the bank was it the hole time?

Yes, now run before it tags you! (Lame joke is lame) 

“Well don’t worry then we can just kill him qwick.”

Bu-but the Doctor doesn't like killing. Unless it's Daleks 'cause they're evil.

...

...Wait...

And the TADRIS killed Doktor Huh with a orbital strike to kill him.

Greatest Anti-Climatic Ending Ever!

“Thanks Dock, now we both win.” So Doktor Who and Supperman wents off to have lots of more coold adventares!

YAY! Remember kids: when someone kidnaps you, don't worry! They'll lead you on cool adventures in their spaceship!
...

Wait...
 

THE END FOR NOW

(mayebt more latter but ony if u revyoo guyz like rthis 1)

  Sadly, there probably won't be, for our dear Sue Mary got kicked off of fanfiction.net because of Critics United. (Long story short, they're kind of the "Stop Having Fun, Guys" of the site and led to the deletion of several fics that were written solely for fun/entertainment, including all of Sue Mary's and "her" alter ego Marissathewriter's work. Even though they clearly weren't serious. And yet, stories that are genuinely horrible still got to stay. While horribly hilarious ones got the boot. There is no justice on the interwebs...) Though you can still find some of "her" work on Tumblr.

  Anyway, this is, as usual, a terrible fic. A terribly hilarious one. Well, glad I finally finished this one. Now to continue my draft clearout...



Well, Since There Won't Be A New Elementary Tonight Or Next Week...

  ...I've decided to use this time for some spring three weeks into the new year cleaning! I have a bunch of post drafts here, and I figure I'd better finish them and put them out. So, here's some of what to expect (though I may change my mind on some of these):

• Two MSTs of "trollfics" I have lying around
• A sort of "series" I wanted to start on characters I feel are underutilized in various things
• Something on the pros and cons of fandoms I happen to be a part of
• More "for the lulz" theories regarding "The Reichenbach Fall"
• A "Things I Would Pay And/Or Kill A Man To See" post
• And possibly a list of my favorite things about Marvel's Cinematic Universe

  ...So that's what to expect, dearies. The first post of my new year clean-out (an MST) should be up really soon.

Not Going To Put It Off Anymore

  Long ago (like, in March or April or something), I said I was going to write a Sherlock/Harry Potter "crossover" fanfic and post it here on my blog. Weeelll, I've sort of procrastinated on it. Like, a lot. But no more!

  You see, I've been busy and haven't been posting. And, well, I've kind of been distract-Ohmahgosh, I'm having a Doctor Who marathon! Wheeeeeee!!!!!

...
...

  Anyway, since I haven't been posting much, I want Skepkitty to be able review my fic (or MST it if it turns out to be bad enough, whatever, either's awesome) on The Half World, and I really have nothing else to do (CURSE YOU BBC AMERICA! AND YOUR BEING ON CABLE AIRING NEW DOCTOR WHO! I DON'T GET THAT TV NO MORE!!!! *insert hashtag phrase here*) I'm putting it up today and for the next... err... 15 days (16 chapters. Brace yourselves...)

  So, that's what's going to happen. I'm going to also put up a page to direct people to the fic for easy access.

  ...Yeah, this post is just to cut down on an author's note. It's mostly pointless.

  Expect the first chapter in a few minutes. This will either be my best work yet, or and epic fail. Oh well. Just get ready! :D

Goof-Ups I've had

 As much as I hate to admit it, I am not perfect. Especially when it comes to typing sometimes. Trust me, Spellcheck is my best friend sometimes. So, I felt like sharing three typos I've had: one general, one that I've corrected, and one mildly hilarious one from a post I did.

 -Ah, Mark Gatiss. He's rather awesome. I mean, he writes for (and has appeared quite a few times in) Doctor Who. He's (so far) the most consistent writer on Sherlock, writing two episodes I enjoyed (Steve Thompson having written the "weakest" episode of Series One, "The Blind Banker", then a good one in Series 2, "The Riechenbach Fall" (RIECHEN- nope, not gonna do the gag). And Moffat wrote the fantastic episode "A Study in Pink", then wrote the episode with a rather irksome Adler interpretation known as "A Scandal in Belgravia.") And to top it off, he plays Mycroft on that show as well. And I'm eager to see how he writes "The Empty House". I'm sure it'll be fantastic.

 But why on Earth do I have so much trouble with his last name? I mean, it's not that hard!
      

 First, I was somehow under the impression it was "Gatniss". I dunno, there was all that Hunger Games stuff, so my mind must've went: "Gatiss is similar to Katniss, so Gatiss=Gatniss". So for a while, I spelt it like some some of portmanteau crack couple name for him and Katniss. Then, I realized my mistake, and corrected it as best I could. (I'm sure in some of my older posts (around March-ish) still have this mistake if I haven't tried to fix them already).

  But the worst part is that I used this misspelling on Pintrest. And a lot of people don't edit what the stuff they're repinning says. So, long story short, there are a lot of repinned Gatiss pics that call him "Gatniss" now. (If anyone has repinned one of those and had it pointed out, I apologize, it's probably my fault.) Maybe if I'm lucky it'll turn into a meme. Then, yay for me... Heh, heh...

  Also, I know I've called him "Gattiss" at least once. Ironically, I was fixing the "Gatniss" that time I remember... Oops!

  So, I apologize for the misspellings, Mark Gatniss Gattiss ...Erm... the guy who plays Mycroft! :P

   -Ever since he first appeared in "The Empty Child", I have been a fan of Captain Jack Harkness on Doctor Who. He's my favorite companion of Eccleston's run, was one of my incentives to get through Series 3, and one of my overall favorite companions (along with Donna Noble and Rory Williams "Pond").

  But, at first, I forgot he had an "n" in his name, thinking it was "Harkess" (which, is still a cool name, by the way). This one was fixed sooner than the Gatiss fiasco, and I doubt that you'll find the error on this blog. (It was more of an error when I wrote little humor comics with him out of boredom.)

  ...Now that I think about it, I must've just stole the "n" from his name and gave it to Gatiss... Hmm...

 -And now, an error that never came up on any final drafts of my posts, but was just too bizarrely hilarious not to mention. In fact, it's what inspired this post in the first place!

 The error comes from my post about who my pick was to play Sebastian Moran on Sherlock. In that post, I have a picture of Eccleston with the caption "Could you be our Moran, sir?"

  However, I had accidentally put down "Could you be our Moron?" at first. After giggling at my mistake, I quickly fixed it before publishing. But still, I couldn't resist sharing.

  Haha. Oh, Eccleston. You know I don't think you're a moron. I think you're brilliant and fantastic! :)

---

  So, that's my little bit of self-deprecation. I now return you to your regularly scheduled life...

  ...Unless you've seen any other mistakes I've made but have been too polite to share...

*UPDATE* Oh yeah, I almost forgot. My screen name, Loveable Freak, is a spelling error. I didn't realize there wasn't an extra "e". Oh well, I like it better this way...

(Late) One-Year Anniversery

 Two posts today? Yes, yes there are...

  Ugh, in all my procrastination, I COMPLETELY forgot that August 5th was my blog's one year anniversary!

  Yes, I've been blogging for about a year now, and I've really enjoyed it! I've enjoyed sharing my thoughts (and more) with you, and hope to continue doing so. And, to honor this anniversary, I feel like sharing some facts about my blog.


-I've gotten about 4,214 views of my blog since I started. The most views I've gotten in a month was in May 2012 (580)

-The top five most-viewed blog posts I've had so far:

1. "Sora and Riku Get New Duds and More in Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance" (278)
2. "Proof of Darren Criss's Awesomeness" (107)
3. "Infamous Movie Reviews: Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief" (93)
4. "Avengers In Target" (77)
5. "Hypothetical Casting: Sebastian Moran for Sherlock Series 3" (55)

-Apparently, most people find this blog on Google searching with "sora dream drop distance outfit"

-While most (more than half) of my views are from the US, the three top out-of-country are:

1. Russia (That reminds me, I should check out the Russian Sherlock Holmes...)
2. Germany (Hi, possible distant relatives!)
3. The UK (In my heart, I am one of you, oh magical land where magical things originate...)

...But enough of that. I promise to have even more posts.

Some ones to expect are:

• More of those Sherlock reviews
• The inevitable Elementary review
• A review of Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance
• Just more Sherlock stuff in general
• My thoughts on what I've heard about The Sea of Monsters movie
• More mildly nerdy ramblings
• ...And just, more!

  So, thank you to all my followers and everyone who reads/has read this blog! You guys are awesome. :)

The Liebster Award

  I would like to thank buddy2blogger for the award. It is very much appreciated!
 The rules are I have to post eleven things about myself, answer buddy2blogger's questions, post my own eleven questions, and finally provide links to my nominees. Well, Allons-y!
Eleven Things About Myself

1. I am quite fond of things that originated from England, such as Sherlock Holmes, Doctor Who, and Harry Potter. I would love to visit that country someday.
2. I have a fondness for hats, and hope to get a great collection of interesting ones. (My favorite one I own is this black derby I've had for three years)
3. Sometimes I worry that I use the world "I" in conversation too much.
4. I believe that people should always keep a little, healthy bit of immaturity about them.
5. I believe I may have a little bit of OCD. Of course, it's only a self-diagnosis, but I think I have some of the symptoms. 
6. My dream in life is to write and draw my own comic book.
7. I dislike swearing and cussing. I can handle a little bit, but once it gets past a certain point...
8. My three favorite video games are the Kingdom Hearts series, Guitar Hero games, and The Sims 3
9. My favorite genres are Science Fiction, Action/Adventure, Fantasy, and Comedy.
10. I love music. I listen to an eclectic mix of music, but I typically like Alternative Rock (though I am growing to appreciate and listen to instrumental soundtracks, and I've rediscovered ska).
11. Speaking is not my forte. In fact, I have a speech impediment of sorts, and often rush my words.

buddy2blogger's Questions

1. What has been the greatest moment in your life so far? It's hard to say. Nothing too big's happened, and I've had a lot of great moments. For now, I'm going with when TV Tropes mentioned one of my comments on their page for (the blog) The Half-World. Specifically, saying it was a Crown Moment of Funny. Because 1) I would love to have a page on TV Tropes for something I've made one day, and 2) Because I'm the only other person (for now) besides Skepkitty (the girl in-charge of the blog) to get one, so it made me feel good that some "Troper" thought I was as funny as Skep at least once. It was a pretty nice compliment.
2. Who (other than your parents) have been a source of inspiration to you? Multiple people are inspirations to me. I'm inspired by Stan Lee and the late Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, because both created characters (Lee creating a good majority of Marvel Comics's characters, Conan Doyle creating Sherlock Holmes) that have stood the test of time and are still beloved (something I wish to achieve). Neil Gaiman inspires me because he writes so many things, and different ones, too (comics/graphic novels, books, short stories, and screenplays), another thing I wish to do. And Andy Warhol inspires me a bit, too, because he also did more than just paint. And he really didn't care what others thought of him.
3. Are you an extrovert who loves partying and hanging out or more of an introverted person? I am most certainly an introverted person.
4.  Who is your favorite movie director and what is the latest movie of his/hers you have seen? Another tough one. I'd say Joss Whedon because he directed one of my favorite movies this year, The Avengers... but then again I haven't really watched anything else of his yet. On the other hand, Guy Ritchie directed the recent Sherlock Holmes movies (two of my favorites)... but, again, I haven't seen anything else of his, either. So, long story short, it's either Whedon (The Avengers) or Ritchie (Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows).
5. What news channel/newspaper do you watch/read to get the latest news? Sadly, I don't really watch the news that much or read the paper. But I do check the news feeds on my computer and occasionally listen to whatever channel's on if there's news. But I guess I've been listening to NBC quite a bit recently...
6. Name some of your favorite hobbies I love listening to music, writing, drawing, and surfing the Internet.
7.  Has becoming a blogger had any impact on your life so far? If yes, in what way(s)? Not in any MAJOR way, but it has introduced me to some people (albeit indirectly) I enjoy, and it lets me get some of my thoughts out on things I know people I've friended on Facebook could care less about.
8. Who is your favorite author(s)? J.K. Rowling, Heather Brewer, Rick Riodan, Neil Gaiman, James Patterson, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and Jack Heath.
9.  If there was one thing you want to change about yourself, what would that be? My ability to stay focused on my goals. I'll MAKE plans, but I procrastinate/forget them (it's part of the reason I haven't posted this sooner). I don't want to get so easily distract... oh, lookie, a picture of the Sherlock characters as My Little Pony ponies! I'm gonna find more! :P
10. Which actor would you cast to play Sherlock Holmes and why? Hmm... Christopher Eccleston. I think he's a very good actor, and he played my favorite incarnation of The Doctor. Plus, he's going to be the villain in Thor: The Dark World, so playing Sherlock would be one of many things that would just max out how cool he is to me. 
11. Do you believe in the existence of aliens and UFOs? Yes. I think it's possible. It's a big universe; we can't just be the only planet that has life.

     My Questions

1. If you could meet any two people (one living, one dead), who would you choose and why?
2. What is one piece of technology you positively CAN'T be without?
3. What is your favorite piece of clothing?
4. What is your favorite TV show? Why?
5. If you could have any profession (besides whatever one you may have now), what would it be?
6. Do you have bizarre dreams, or are they pretty mundane/"normal"?
7. Which fictional character would you most like to be dragged along with on an adventure?
8. What book (or show/comic/etc.) would you like to see made into a movie, and who would you want to direct it and star as the main character?
9. If you could have one (fictional) object, what would it be and why?

Bear With Me, Guys...

Hey everyone. Sorry I've been quiet so long. You deserve an explanation. You see, I'm in the process of moving, so I am temporarily without computer. In fact, this very post is coming from an iPod Touch. Which, while good for MANY things, is very ineffective at keeping up blog posts compared to a computer. I do think iPod is alright for commenting, however. That, and the iffy Internet connection where I am. I promise, I'll only be gone a few more days. When everything's settled, I'll get right back to posting. In fact, here's some of the posts I have planned: -A little piece on why I might not be enjoying The Eleventh Doctor so far, unlike The Ninth and Tenth. -Maybe some more MSTs. -Some Reviews of The Guy Richie Sherlock Holmes movies and episodes of BBC's Sherlock. -More of my thoughts on Elementary whenever I see the new trailer. (YouTube doesn't work well from my location >:( ) -And you know how I said I was working on a Sherlock and Harry Potter Crossover fanfic? Well, when I get my computer back, I'll finish typing it up (I already wrote all of it, I'm just copying it to a word document so I can have a better corrections), copy it to Blogger, and post each chapter. I've even contemplated a joke trailer for it. I didn't djust change my mind about that/forget it, you know... ... So that's why I've been (and will be) gone a while. Not because I died and was revived. Not because I quit but realized I couldn't. Not because I was kidnapped and tortured by Critics United for openly disapproving of them on The Half World (I think I'll post my thoughts on THEM later, too...). I swear, in a few days, I'll be back, and you'll have my ramblings again. So, just bear with me, guys (*gasp* just like in the title!) So for now, I'll guess I'll talk to you later. And thanks for your patience... :)

1st MST: Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack The Ripper (100th Post)

   100 Posts. I did it. I've reached 100 posts. This is pretty big for me. So I said to myself, "Yo, Freak! Let's do something special!" And, well, I've been wanting to try and enter the world of fanfic MSTing. (For those unfamiliar with MSTing, it's when someone mocks a terrible work, first pioneered by the TV Show Mystery Science Theater 3000). So, for the 100th Post, I'm doing an MST of a fanfic!

 I will be MSTing something I know's a trollfic (meant to be bad), that I found through the website TV Tropes. Why? Because one, I had some good snark, and two, I sort of know one of the author's other personas (at least, I think we're Internet acquaintances), so I don't feel so guilty :).  This is "Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack The Ripper" by Sue Mary, and it's pretty much what the name implies, only wackier.

 I should probably have a disclaimer... Nah! The words that aren't my own are in blue...

  Well, no time to waste! Let's get started! ALLONS-Y!

---

Authrons Note: Thsi story is based of teh 3009 movee off SHerlock.

 I believe this puts another nail in that "The World Ends In 2012" conspiracy, if we have "3009" movies.

SHERLOOK HOMES VS JACK THE RAPER
Sherlook at that body. Sherlook at that body. Sherlook at that body. I work out!

sHERLOCK an Wasson were at three house solving criem.
First they would solve the crimes against grammar, then they would solve the mystery of who left the Caps Lock on!
Waton wad readin a paper of news an see a big artakle.

A paper of news. As opposed to a paper of fiction.
"Serhock, there is big bad news Jick Ripper has murdred again!" Sherlock standing up on him toes and grolwled at mirror.

 "Stupid mirror, I can't see my handsomeness if you keep thinking I'm as tall as Cumberlock!"

"THIS IS AN UNESEEPTABALE AKSHUN!" He pumped. "We must bring hiom to justace."
...Pumped?
An Waton agreed becuz on eof teh Ripper's victums was his WIFE!
 Mary died? :( Well, I'm sure RDJ!Lock can live with that, he doesn't have to share Watson anymore! (Sorry, couldn't resist... ;))
First tey went to da inner city for investiage witnessis.

 Um, Sherlock? You know I'd never question your methods, but wouldn't any witnesses to Jack the Ripper's murders most likely be... oh I don't know, BRUTALLY MURDERED!?
"I donnot no who he is but i seed him kill ones" Sherlock nodding an Whatson rited it all down.

Well, can't argue with that logic...

It wis hard of find more witness becuz killer was gud trail stopper.

EXACTLY! THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING!

Then they fond a guy. It was wereworlf name Jacob lol.
Oh...
Oh, no...
JACOB KEEP YO' FILTHY TWILIGHT GERMS AWAY FROM MY SHERLOCK!

 Jaco say "Followt me, I no were he living".

Well, that's convenient...

When da duges got there it was a hunted mansion!

But I thought they'd hunted the mansions into extinction!
"Im scare!" Watson crieded and poppied his pants.
Oh, it's just a haunted mansion, Watson! Suck it up, be a man, and get back in character! Be a good example for Joan Watson!

"Stay stong Wasteon, we must do for justice"

Sherlock knows what's up...

An Sherlock brokened door becuse nocking would alert THE CRIMINAL!"

...

...
Well, can't argue with that logic...

Serching in the masnon was like an episod of Skooby Doo but no moosteers or id they?

DUN DUN DUN!!!

At mansion summit was atik but Sherlock didn't see nothing. "Criminal am not nowhere" Whutson say "Gived up, SSherlock note ven u can solved this"
Oh, ye of little faith, Watson. The Canon Watson and the Sherlock fangirls are ashamed of you...

 But that ony sent him intro overdive!

Oh, snap!

 Jakob who went with tem saw a thing "I saw thing!"

NAW, RLY?

 When they go there it a box of trouble bcause a zombied Albert Einting camed out.
Somewhere a history buff is crying...

"Shertock, lets pump!" Waton plead but Sherlock shook "no"

Oh, ye of little faith. Martin Freeman's Watson is ashamed of you....

"We canort let this abnation of justaice not put to rest!" Battle was turlf.

Show, don't tell, author...

Alber first used a punch attak but Sherlock used BRANE BLAST to make it stop.

Thaaat's more like it!

Wheatson tried to run bu slip on a banama peel and fell so da audience laffed.
Andre Morell's Watson DEFINITELY is ashamed of you from what I've read...

"Return to dead or I wilt have to kill u!"
Oh, crap! Sherlock's bustin' out the Ye Olde Englishe! Things just got real!
Sherlucksperated Ablert's head and he hurt but a box went an hit him da bowls.

...Um... Okay... Yay, I guess?
Shertlock looked fro signs of the crush an see Watson had triped on a box that was so much flying to the very zombie Watson blush "Did I do that?" and da audience laffed again.
Nigel Bruce's Wats... No, that was the "stupid" Watson, so I guess he's not so offended...

 "Good jub!" Hacob said but he was seekritly angary.
ZOMG THIS COULDN'T POSSIBLY BE FORESHADOWING!
It was a lung day sso Sherlock said "Les go home an serch more torromow" An Watson agreed.

Yay! Nothing accomplished, boys! *thumbs up*

Meanwhil at ta masion Jacob said to his dark mastar "Tey defeats zombie Albert Eientin an gotted aways."
WHAT A TWIST! That TOTALLY wasn't foreshadowed or nuthin'...

 "Dont worry Jakob" say Jack the Ripper "I has present fro the heroes at there house!"

Aw, Jack got them a present! That is so nice of him! You know, Moriarty would nev...

...Oh, wait, it's a bad present. Oh.... Oh, okay! I get it, I-I get it now...
An they lauffed because Jacob is a bad guy seekritly workin for Jack the Riper because im on Teem Edwin!

Jacob is a villain  in Victorian London, secretly working for Jack The Ripper, just because the author's on Team Edward.
Jacob is a villain in Victorian London, secretly working for Jack The Ripper, just because the author's on Team Edward.

Wrap your mind around that.

When Sherock and Watson got home they was get out keys when da house shalked and den burst an a dinosaur that was more bigger than the whole everything was dere.
Yup, the historical buffs AND the zoology/paleontology buffs are definitely sobbing...
Dinosaur make roarl sounds an lunged at Waton but Sherlock punch away.
That defies all logic!
Do it again!
 "U THINIK U CAN EAT MY HOUSE AN FREND TRYANONOSAURS REKS!"
Sherlock Holmes Fact: Do not threaten a Sherlock's Watson, or he will straight up kill you, with extreme prejudice. (Or threaten to eat his friend Tryanonosaurs Reks, apparently...)

 Dinosaur that was Tryanosaruso Rex laffed and tired to eat him. Sherlocks hasd to the theink fast.  "What I do What I do" Watson sad "Eskuse me!" An it farted louder than sun which was sooooooo stonky.

*facepalm* Just when you thought she couldn't stray further from Jude Law!Watson's characterization...

...And all other, unmentioned Watsons are ashamed of him...
 Trex felled over an Shertlok see a sowrd which was Xcalibar an say "It only way to permantely defeat da Tranno forever for good and permanent" So he stabed it.

I think this scene defines the term "crazy awesome"...
"CURSES!" Jack scramed. "How I kill now?"

I DON'T KNOW! How you kill before?

 Jaco comfortated him with a friendly back massage.
Riiiiight. A "friendly" back massage. Totally not awkward. Well, he could do worse. Jack could be a newborn half-vampire, half-human hybrid...

"Thhanks Jaco, I neded that."

Is it sad that the villains have more bromance than the classic, timeless bromance does in the fic? Especially since this is about the Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock Holmes, with his jealousy issues?
But how wuld he get revenging?

How? HOW!? Tune in next week for the... No, wait. There's more...

Shertock an Waton wents to a hotel becuse house was dino destroyed.
Waaait a minute... Was Gladstone in there? NOOOOO! GLADSTONE! CURSE YOU, JACK! KILLING THE DOG'S SHERLOCK'S JOOOOOOB! *sobs*

But hotle had a seekrit spurise for them…

*sniffle* That's nice of them. Maybe it's a new dog...

 IT WAS JACK!

THAT'S NOT A GOOD SURPRISE!

"OH NO IS TERRORISTS!" Waatson cried an da audicene laffed.
Not sure whether to facepalm or laugh... So, I'm gonna do both...

 "So ew meets at last Jack Ripper" Sherock demandlings. "Hahahahahahahaa I will kell u!" Say Jack an Jkaob was ther 2.
To borrow the one of the shticks of a fellow blogger, Skepkitty, from The Half World for a second:

Kell

n. 1.	A kiln.
	1.	A sort of pottage; kale. See Kale, 2.
	1.	The caul; that which covers or envelops as a caul; a net; a fold; a film. I'll have him cut to the kell. - Beau. & Fl.
	2.	The cocoon or chrysalis of an insect.

  So, Jack is gonna put Sherlock in a cocoon? Eh. I've heard of worse fates.

"NO WAY HOSE!" Screemed Sherlock.

Oh snap! Sherlock's breaking out the (bad) Spanglish! Things just got serious!

 It wad time for teh final conflict of god vs evel.

Did Sue Mary just refer to Sherlock as a god? That totally wouldn't inflate his ego...

Sherlok attacks first wif FFIST UPNCH!

As opposed to a foot punch...

But Jacob went weareolf and grabed him arm.

Oh snap! C'mon Watson, now's your chance to redeem yourself! Do it for Mary!

Watson hids underd a bead an say "AAAAAAAAAAAA" really really loud.

*headdesk* Oh, COME ON! The hound from "The Hound of the Baskervilles" was scarier than Jacob. Heck, the dog in "The Copper Beeches" was scarier than him, and you shot it's brains out (like a boss)!

Jack Ripper Ripped Sherloak face but he grined the teeth and did head butt to break Jack nose. Waton pooped sooo much him pants exlodd. "I am scare!" He sayd wile Sherkok an Jack were FIGHTING.

Sherlock, I don't know how to say this, but your Watson's defective. You need to trade him in for a new one...

"Gives upd Shelock I will Ripe you like all da others I kirlled!" Sherlock got infushun of powar and justace so say "NO!" And wif power of true justice he did lots of punch and kick and chop fast liek speed of fast to win the grate victory. "Dead!" Yell JACK an Jacom as Shertok throws them out of windowed.

...Thank you for clarifying, guys. I would've thought you survived the power of true justice.

Next Dayu Sherloo and Waqtons was big news for kill of Jack teh Ripper. "Good jub guys!" Say King an givesd them key to da city of Englond.

Well, the good news is the history buffs aren't crying anymore. The bad news is they've lost their faith in humanity and the will to live! :(

TEH END

Yay!

I werked like 3 dayz on this stor so plaze give me good revioows this tiem guys.

You poor thing. Well, in that case... No. No I will not.

---

 So, there you go! My first MST! It's a little harder than I thought, but I'm willing to try again. So, what did you guys think?

 I now return you to your regularly scheduled life...

Announcement Of Things To Come

  So, I'm not going to let anything get me down! I kind of wanted to let you know some things I got planned:

• MORE Sherlockian Fangirling!
• MORE Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance News!
• NEW! Things I Would Pay And/Or Kill A Man To See!
• AND A Sherlock/Harry Potter "Crossover" Fanfic!

  Why the quotations over "crossover"? Well, you'll see. I won't give anything major away, but it involves a cat, a chest, and a "children's" book. I'll leave you to speculate on that.

  So, your thoughts? Any post suggestions? Artwork requests? Want a long-distance comment conversation? You know what to do!

The Awards Go To...

  So, I had a plan in case my attempt at an award show didn't get no votes.

  Everyone/thing nominated gets the award.

  So, I have a question for you all....

  Should I bother writing out the show/acceptance speeches, or does it make no difference to you, I should move on and forget about this experiment?

  Please let me know.

2012

  So, it's 2012. Well, if we're all going to die this year (which I highly doubt. There's evidence out there against it, but does anyone listen? Noooooooo....) it would be an awesome year to end. Because...

1. The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra comes out this year! (AND IT LOOKS AWESOME!)

2. Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance. That is all..

3. THE AVENGERS! THE AVENGERS! THE AVENGERS!


    Yup, the world may possibly end (which I still have skepticism about). But hey, at least it'll end with watching Legend of Korra on the Internet while playing KH:3D before heading to the movies to get my fill of Hawkeye, Black Widow and Robert Downey Jr.'s combined awesomeness. I'm totally content with that.

Happy New Year...

... Here's to many more, readers.

No Weekend Artwork (Again)

  Eh, no ideas yet. But I wanted to let you in on *some ideas:

• I'm planning on a OPP about "Why Irkens Can't Reproduce".
• I'm hoping to do a mini-series on movie adaptations and my thoughts on them (mainly, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, The Lightning Theif, and The Last Airbender)
• Some WA Idea I had: Xion mixed with X-23
• Opinion Stuff
• Another WA Idea: Luxord and Lady Gaga
• ...........And More!

*Subject To Change

 So, like last time: I will have some random videos! YAY!

PEACE OUT!

RANDOM BLOG FACT TIME: APPRETIATION #2

 I've now gotten 36 views from out of the US (And yes, I count the ones from last time). 2 more from Germany, and 9 more from Russia, (Hello (possibly again) Germany and Russia!) and a few NEW areas. And two are in ASIA!

• One from Latvia (Hi, Latvia! Ya know, I sort of think of Latveria from Marvel Comics when I think of here, since the spelling's similar. Just sayin')
• One from Sri Lanka (Hello, Sri Lanka! Great another country I picture a Camp Lazlo character saying the name of)

     And.............

• Seven from Indonesia (Hel-lo, Indonesia! *insert witty message here*)

   And that's all I have to say about that. THANKS!

I Don't Feel Like Doing A Weekend Artwork This Weekend

 I just don't. But I WILL post a "saga" of pics this week/weekend. Want a hint? What have I been going on about in "One Liners"?

 So... I'm gonna go running around screaming "I LOVE ROBIN!" or something related to one of the many things I'm a fan of while playing "Rose's Turn" (The Glee Version) on my MP3 Player. Why?

So here's the song so you can get a hilarious mental image.

 And because I can, the Portal 2 trailer. SOMEDAY, I WILL PLAY THOSE GAMES!

Wow, this post took a weird turn...

                                    

 Yes, I am partially insane. Why do you ask?

RANDOM BLOG FACT TIME! (APPRECIATION FOR STRANGERS!)

 Today you're getting two posts! So I'm going to state a random Fact.

 As of this post, I've gotten 16 views from outside the US (which is cool to me.)

 I've gotten:

• One from Lithuania. (Hi! Mr./Ms./Mrs. Lithuanian Person! I don't know where that is, sadly, but I know it's in Europe and I appreciate you visiting once!)
• Two from Russia. (Greetings, Russians! Sorry my Not Amused, Marvel post had nothing to do with Monty Python (yes, I know what you were looking up when you found my little blog. Scary, no?))
• Four from The UK. ('Ello, good-ol' United Kingdom-ites! How's it going 'cross the pond?)
• Four from France. (Bonjour, French! Stay unique!)
• And Five from Germany. (Guten Tag, Germans! You know I have some German lineage? Just sayin'.....)

 So thanks all you Europeans for visiting! And for humoring me with a visit or two. I really appreciate it and hope you all come back sometime. Multiple times, preferably. Pweeeeease? Thanks!

 The Loveable Freak is Grateful.
