Pow, another one down
Nov. 17th, 2010 03:29 pmAWWWWW YEEEEAAAAHH. I might have been quizzed about one of those things I was crossing my fingers I wouldn't get quizzed about (The Sættargjerden concordat of 1277) but I somehow managed to write nine pages about it, so I guess I had to know something about it. In any case I'm pretty certain I must have been the only one who included a lengthy tangent going "It's amusing that the final agreement between the king and the archbishop happened to be written down on St. Lawrence's feast day, because..."
Anyway, a thousand thanks to those who wished me luck with my exam.
Aaand we're back to regular geeking:
- I see the Eight Doctor is going to get a new costume. I'm going to miss the Edwardian look, but I like what I'm seeing - fits nicely with my head!canon of a more practical Doctor during the Time War.He obviously took some fashion tips from his BF Fitz and damn now I want to read the EDAs...
Of course, no word on why Eight suddenly needs a new costume. I guess it's implied it's for Big Finish's covers, but I can't help dreaming about proper TV-BBC taking Eight back...
- Hahaha, what is this? A Norwegian dub of the first Lupin III series from the seventies? And it was released this year? HAHA WHAT. And the description presents it as "Hayao Miyazaki's animated show" which is a dirty rotten lie to sell more copies, jeez lousie (Miyazaki produced two episodes, but that was in the second series).
Still, it's hilariously weird. Why would they do this, what audience are they trying to reach anyway? I can't even decide if I want it, just to see how horrible it will be to watch (I can't even stand the American dubs!) - a Norwegian Lupin III gang? "Lupin den tredje"? How does a Norwegian voice artist handle a name like "Ishikawa Goemon"? Badly, if the misspelling on the cover is anything to go by. WANT/DON'T WANT CONFLICT.
- You know what I haven't done in a dog's age? A boring meme!
