The RENT trailer, again, yet all shored and proper this time. Looks like higher quality than the version leaked early on that Canadian site, though when I tried playing it, the sound and video didn’t quite match up. Oh well. Still shiny.
How could I completely forget about the LJ permanent account sale? I lose. This is what I get for reading fanfic instead of checking LJ in class.
Umm… this t-shirt design is funny.
Bwee! I just got an email from Barnes & Noble, informing me that Jasper Fforde’s next novel, The Big Over-Easy, is going to be released a week earlier than what I had previously thought! July 21st, as opposed to July 27th! *does a little dance*
Of course, that means that the two books I’m most excited about this summer (the other being HP6) now come out within a week of each other, which isn’t very cool, but oh well.
*skips off to update the Summer Guide*
This entry has no real purpose; I’m just trying to test this piece of software that auto-detects changes in webpages. It would make the crazy refreshapalooza for Serenity tickets a lot simpler. :D
For those curious: URLy Warning.
What am I doing on Fanthropology’s “History of the Harry Potter Fan Fiction Community“? How is my pathetic Mary Sue Litmus Test a milestone event? I threw it together as a joke, cribbing 9/10s of it from equivalent tests in other fandoms!
Bleh.
Stupid people in charge of the Serenity screenings. Regardless of how unbelievably awesome it would be to sell out all 23 screenings without a single official announcement, it’s kind of infuriating to do this all on our own. The fans suggested that the tickets were likely go on sale in the middle of the night, probably around 1AM EST (Midnight Central). Being paranoid, I set my alarm to wake me up every two hours. Each time, I remembered vivid dreams of acquiring tickets successfully (then I dreamed my hair was knee-length, so I must have done something right, karmically), so it took a few seconds for me to realize that these were only dreams and that the tickets still weren’t on sale. As of this morning, tickets still aren’t on sale yet, and fans in other cities are reporting that their Box Office had informed them that tickets won’t go on sale until the 7th or the 9th. I wish the people at our local AMC would actually talk to me, to alleviate some of the anxiety.
Summer Glau was in tonight’s season premiere of The 4400? Why was I not informed of this? You all fail.
Silly Fandom Stuff:
Unofficial Smile Time spinoff comic, because there can never be enough Puppet!Angel. Too funny!
High-Res pic of the Mal and Jayne Serenity action figures. Rarely have I ever seen so terrified in my entire life.

*looks at rumored list of songs for the RENT movie*
*blinks*
Is Mark even in this film? Nearly every one of the songs he leads is cut. And here, I was imagining he was the de facto narrator of the stage production.
Tread lightly, Columbus.
