We are now a week-and-a-half into the RA Challenge, with 2/3 of it yet to come. Even at this relatively early stage, I must say that I am really enjoying it. Ok, I haven’t reached the con-tro-ver-sial question yet *dun-dun-duuuuun*. For several reasons: It’s great to see so much RA content being posted. In the absence…
Seems as if spring is coming. That is if we are judging by my current obsession with tidying up, reorganising and moving furniture. The reason I am so late today with my RA Challenge, is that I was decluttering, (re)decorating and tidying today. Which in my house always turns into a major time-sucker. I live…
So, Pilgrimage is out and reviews are in. Strangely, not that much resonance on tumblr. Or maybe not strange – small premiere with no wide release. I’ve been voraciously gobbling up the reviews – both from fans and from media – constantly veering between horror (“good grief, I’m not that much into guts ‘n’ gore”) and irrepressible…
Today’s challenge is somewhat an extension of RA Challenge ♡ #4 – one of the main expressions of fandom being the frequent shopping of merchandise. I deliberately excluded my RA-related shopping habits from the previous challenge, because I knew this question would come up. But now’s the time to talk about the fruits of my disposable income. I…
This is gonna be a really short one. The less said, the better. It wasn’t very hard to find a derp-y picture of this nasty character. Especially highlighted by the “moustache of evil”. Not very flattering look, really. William Chatford, Malice Aforethought. If you haven’t seen it, don’t even bother. RA sneers and ironically huffs his…
I’m starting the day with a quick aside from the RA Challenge. A couple of days ago, the question was what my favourite fan art is. I kind of copped out by choosing to cite the “Original Portable Shrine” as my favourite piece. An easy choice, because no one would be upset by me hailing…
Grah. Which idiot has come up with these questions??? I need more information in order to answer this properly! Are we talking about proper-bilateral and thus “happy” romances, or also unilateral, unhappy romances? And are we talking canon-only or also non-canon? Hmph. Ok, let’s take it literally and canon. Favourite Romance Yes, Francis and Reba. Because…
It’s time to reveal another shrine. It finally arrived at its destination last week, but with the Pilgrimage premiere coming up, and just having started my RA Challenge, I let it slip a bit. Now the time has come to reveal the Awesome Lips… Is this tin cute or what? I spotted it a year and…
Catching two birds with one stone today: A quick response to last night’s Pilgrimage premiere, and then today’s RA Challenge post. Pilgrimage has premiered! First of all: Hooray, the bush telegraph works pretty well! After the Pilgrimage premiere at Tribeca Film Festival last night, fans have been posting first impressions on Twitter. I have quickly put together a so-called “Moment”…
It has come to my attention that I have shamefully ignored the part of our blogging community which blogs on platforms other than WordPress. Thank goodness for Servetus – she pointed out that Ania, who blogs at her blog zRYSIOwana, had responded to the RA challenge, too. Do check out her post HERE; it is written in…
