The only problem is that I'm not sure whether to post it in boldface or not.

And then.................I watched Midnight...................................and was blown away.
It was amazing!!!!! And I had no idea that this was such a good episode beforehand (good job not even hinting at it everyone!). For something with such a simple premise and set up, it was incredibly effective, and utterly terrifying and horrifying. Bravo Doctor Who, Bravo!

Today, I realised and I am not entirely sure how I missed this--my house is called The Homestead. The house directly opposite mine is called Rivendell.
conspiracy time?? (also there is a Longbottom Lane near where I live, and it makes me laugh every time we drive down it.)
Also also, I'm going to Dublin for a school trip this weekend, and since it involves lots of walking I am procuring a walking stick. My friend swears she can get me a folding one for 99p, and I fully intend to take out the legs out of anyone who makes hilarious jokes along the lines of "hello Grandma!" or "HOBBLE FASTER"

Well, the obvious answer is ponies, but I'm going to have to go with....no wait, this is my answer. I just love horses!

I'm going to have to go with the end of the Two Towers! Frodo is dead! Sam takes the ring! No wait, Frodo isn't dead but is captured by orcs! YIKES!!!!

I hate this phrase and all its implications: that crying is something only women do, and only young women at that. That it's something adults should leave behind, should be ashamed of. That being a girl is something to be ashamed of.
But I'm willing to admit my hatred of it may be over-the-top. I guess I'm asking: does it bother other people? Is it worth me (gently, politely) suggesting people find another way to express how verklempt or frightened they are? Or should I just accept it's pervasive and leave well enough alone?

(One of my sadder gaps is much of the oeuvre of Hayao Miyazaki, which I have started remedying on a one-movie-per-day basis.
Also, I am watching them subbed, because I have this weird thing where a really great dub like Bebop is okay, but I find it incredibly distracting to hear Hollywood actors in the roles. Plus it just seems right to watch them this way.)

So I got around to making the rest of these. Yay! Will be posted in the reply shortly.

The following comment was reported for the reason: Describes Eowyn as "mental".
@eruvadhril commented on Mark Reads 'The Return of the King': Chapter 6 - Mark Reads:
Eowyn? Is FUCKING METAL. She is more metal than the Witch King of fuckin' Angmar, and I don't even know how that's possible.

...honestly, in my mind, these movies and BtVS take place in the same universe.

I just wanted to drop a quick comment saying hello and sorry for my recent absence (oh god, so much to catch up on). A week or two of being busy was promptly followed by minor computer problems which became major computer problems and, long story short, I now have a new hard drive. I'll probably only be dropping in and out the next few days still as I'm setting everything back up on my laptop between bouts of fuzzy vision (yay eye infection) but I thought I'd come here and say hello and I missed you all anyway.
*insert happy gif I can't access as they're all still on my external hard drive*

As far as losing people goes, I'm going to have to go with Theoden. It makes me cry in both it's book and movie forms.
But, really, for me, the biggest casualty is the loss of innocence in the Shire. Having the heroes come home to find the Shire a twisted version of itself always makes me feel like we (and Middle Earth) have lost something incredibly precious.

If not, maybe someone should? I can't imagine reading Lord of the Rings without reading The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen and Later Events Concerning the Members of the Fellowship of the Ring. Those contain some of my biggest guaranteed-to-make-me-cry moments in the whole series!

I've only just started watching so I have no idea what it covers.

Last week:
Him: I decided to start reading The Hunger Games, since the movie's coming out soon
Me: Oh, it's really good! You won't be able to put it down, though. Make sure you have some time to spare.
Him: haha, I'm sure I'll be fine
Early this week:
Him: You were right; that book went so fast
Me: Did you like it?
Him: It was great! I'm reading the second one now. But I'm going to take a break after that
Me: No, you're not.
Him: No, there's other stuff I want to read
Me: No, you're going to finish Catching Fire and go right into the next one
Today:
Him: You were right. I had to start Mockingjay immediately.
Me: Told you
Him: They're so good, though!

I almost forgot to do this today!
In the movies, it's Sam's Hope Speech at the end of Two Towers, in the books....so many choices. I love Frodo's reunion with Bilbo, Gandalf being alive, Eowyn and Merry killing the Witchking, Eowyn and Faramir together and that's just what's right off the top of my head right now. There are too many to count....

Thank you autocorrect for getting this mostly right I think

If the Doctor is Space Gandalf, is the Master Space Saruman? Both Saruman and the Master manipulate people with psychic powers and they both like to be called "master"...
