Dr. Who and other things

[alexandral]

- I have written about 70% of the Report for the Project of Doom. But today I felt I need a break and watched 1 episode of Dr. Who (with Christopher Eccleston) because lage_nom_ai was talking about it.

I THINK THIS IS THE BEST SHOW EVER! SERIOUSLY! Where have I been when everybody was watching it? I love, love, love it! Because:

- Dr.Who is quirky and crazy and cute

- Rose is wonderful

- Script is fantastic, really clever but not i-am-so-serious-about-myself

- Jokes are out of this world

- Living plastic - Funny, but mannequins make me uneasy always, they look like they ARE alive.

- The only bad thing is that Christopher Eccleston only did one season. Why? I really think he is great.

I broke into iconmaking spree and made an icon with Rose, and then I kept going and made an unrelated icon from the lovely picture of Sean Bean in Caravaggio which very generous elspethsheir gave me yesterday..

(I don't know if Sean's Bean character is any wild in the "Caravaggio", but this picture in my mind is - he is like some sort of a wild animal here, like leopard perhaps)

-- Icons are free to share

I will not be able to be around much this week because this is the last 10 days before the submission day of the Project of Doom. Have a nice week everyone!

I didn't expect to like it so much - guys at work were forever talking about it, but they watched Dr. Who as kids.

BBC used to show it at the particular inconvenient time for me -18.00 on Saturday, I am usually out and about at this time of day.

I am so glad I have watched it finally! I am completely hooked. Even looking at your icon with characterstic Dr.'s smile makes me want to watch some more of it !

Christopher Eccleston had a role in Elizabeth , didn't he? I never watched that adaptation of Elizabeth, I must catch up.. But - Shallow Grave (actually this is one of my work colleague's favourite movies they keep talking about ;))

I went on a bit of an Eccleston binge last year and watched a lot of his movies. My favorite roles are in Elizabeth and in Jude (with Kate Winslet). Jude is a dark and well done film, and it showcases Eccleston's acting really well (in my opinion). His character in Shallow Grave is kind of dorky. Overall, the film didn't impress me, but it did have good moments.

He's in Shallow Grave? My god, I think I have to rewatch that movie and take my focus off Ewan McGregor now...

Hee! I watched all the key scenes featuring Eccleston and McGregor twice. Once for Eccleston, once for Ewan. [heads desk]

Ah! Someone else has seen Jude the Obscure! Eccleston was amazing - so was she - but goodness, could that film have been any more depressing? I too thought that he was fabulous in Elizabeth, and when I heard that he was the Doctor, I was elated!

I remember seeing Jude and thinking "this must be good", but for some reason I have never watched it. But now I must! (And Elizabeth too). And even Shallow grave.. Thank you for recs!
