05:27 pm - Christian & Olli: the happiest gay couple in all the world Every time I think that Christian and Olli can’t be more adorable and every time they prove me wrong. If you would like to check it for yourself the big coming out vid is here (Christian wins his important boxing fight and kisses Olli in the ring in front of all the people). And the post coming out "we are so blindingly happy as only we can be in a soap before the tragedy strikes" vid is here (more public kissing and Christian calling Olli his greatest love and thanking him for all the support and oh my god they are so happy I just can’t take it *melts*). Both vids have English subtitles. At times like this I wish VL was a bigger fandom, because then by the end of the week there would be at least ten fics describing in details what Christian and Olli would do in that bath tub if stupid Axel didn’t spoil everything.

07:50 pm - The Dark Knight Some people just want to watch the world burn. Saw it twice this weekend and all I can say is WOW… The movie is wonderful and Heath is breathtakingly amazing. I think I have a new obsession because those 2 times were definitely not enough and I want to see it again and again and again. Current Mood: enthralled Tags: i love movies

08:34 am - Christian/Olli I can’t believe I’m so ridiculously excited about a German soap opera. Well, about a British one, too, because a few weeks ago I started watching and quickly fell in love with a gay subplot on Hollyoaks. I haven’t had time to write about it yet, so for now only czeri has to bear me rambling about it. As for Verbotene Liebe – yesterday’s episode was wonderful and the preview for today’s episode was the best thing ever. Because today is Christian’s big public coming out. I have no idea how I’ll manage to wait till the evening. I watched the last episode twice yesterday. In German without English subtitles. I didn’t understand a word but it really didn’t matter. And when the preview came I clapped my hands and shouted and awwwed and made other strange noises of excitement. And now I’m posting about it at 8.20 a.m. before going to work. I’m crazy in love and it feels great! :) The ep with English subtitles is here. And if you’re not watching Verbotene Liebe why aren't you? It’s such fun. Current Mood: crazy Tags: verbotene liebe

09:47 pm - Verbotene Liebe This is Christian Mann. This is Oliver Sabel also known as Olli. And this is Christian/Olli – my current obsession and one of the most beautiful romances I’ve seen on TV. ( More pics behind the cut ) They’re canon, they’re pretty and they kiss a lot on screen sometimes even lying half-naked in bed. And all this happens in German soap opera Verbotene Liebe (Forbidden Love). If you want to see this lovely and hot boy/boy kissing in motion first I recommend checking two vids. This is their first sex scene. There are English subtitles (very good subtitles, the girl doing them is German but she’s a professional translator), although during the scene itself they aren’t really needed. :) Just one more thing – this is a soap opera that airs in Germany from Monday to Friday at 6 p.m. Not 9 or 10 – 6 p.m. To see something like that on Polish TV at 6 p.m. I will have to wait, oh I don’t know, another 50 years perhaps? Later there is a lot of denial on Christian’s side and a lot of patience on Olli’s side and then finally comes the second sex scene. After that they’re officially a couple, although they are out only to a few people at first. If you want to see how it all started, how they fell in love and to see a lot more of those hot, beautiful kisses this is a playlist of all Christian/Olli youtube vids with English subtitles. There are 71 of them now – just Christian and Olli scenes, each one is from 5 to 10 minutes long. Why do I love them so much? The actors have an incredible chemistry, you can really believe that they are in love, that they want each other. Also they have really healthy relationship. I’m not saying they are happy all the time and it's all sunshine and rainbows. Sometimes they argue or they fight or misunderstand one another but they’re honest with each other and they talk to explain things and then they make up and are so adorable that I melt and awwww a lot. Of course it’s a soap so it’s often cheesy and has silly plot twists and some of the actors are bad but Christian/Olli subplot is very well done IMO and feels realistic. Short summary of Christian/Olli relationship behind the cut for those of you who would like to know more. ( Read more... ) Now go watch, I hope I convinced you that it’s worth checking. :) Current Mood: enthralled Tags: verbotene liebe

07:04 pm - "I love you Phillip Morris" Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor as lovers – do you need any other reason to watch that movie? :) For me it would be enough, but I also read the book and I liked it very much so I’m really excited about seeing it on screen. Carrey proved in “The Truman Show” that he can act, so I’m not worried about his ability to play such a fascinating character as Russell. Also they look so adorable together: The book is based on a true story of Steven Russell – a con man, a very intelligent, quick-witted and charming guy. He’s now serving 45 years plus 99 years in a maximum-security jail. But earlier he escaped from prison several times, always on Friday the 13th. Those escapes earned him such a reputation in law enforcement and the media that he became known as the King of Con. The first time he managed to get hold of civilian clothes and a walkie-talkie and he simply walked out of the front door from the visitors side of the jail, waving a walkie-talkie to the guards to open the door for him. And they did. They didn’t recognize him, because it was a big prison with almost 5000 inmates and he had been an inmate for only a month. His next escapes were even more brilliant. During one of his stays in prison he met Phillip Morris and fell in love with him. The movie was apparently pitched as “Catch Me if You Can meets Brokeback Mountain” *rolls eyes*, but the book reminded me a little bit of OZ, partially because this description of Phillip Morris: "He was short and delicate; a boy-man with porcelain skin, wire-rimmed glasses, and baby-fine blond hair," reminded me of Beecher. And because Russell wasn’t just in love with Morris, he was obsessed with him. Since Russell met and fell in love with Morris, Morris was his reason for living, Russell would do anything for him. Once when they were both still in jail Morris complained to Russell about a fellow inmate who screamed incessantly and that screaming kept Morris from sleeping. The next day Russell paid someone to beat that inmate up. Very Keller-like, isn’t it? The movie will premiere in early 2009. I can’t wait.

09:36 pm - Yes! Who is Your Ideal TV Boyfriend? Created by BuddyTV Gacked from kohl_rimmed_eye. I cheated a little bit to get House, but you know he’d approve. :) Also a fic rec "The Yankee's Loot" by yahtzee63 It's a Doctor Who/Gone with the Wind crossover – Ten, Martha and Scarlett O’Hara in the Tardis. Isn’t that enough to make you want to read it? :) And it’s written by Yahtzee, so even before I’ve read it I knew it’d be good. And it is. I don’t know what fandoms she writes in these days, but I remember her wonderful stories from Buffy/Angel fandom. To this day “Splinter” is the best gen fanfic I’ve ever read. Current Mood: okay Tags: fic recs

10:45 pm - Wow, that's a lot of TV shows WARNING - behind the cuts are heavy spoilers for The Wire season 5 up to ep 4, Prison Break season 3 up to ep 10 and Torchwood season 2 up to ep 2. The Wire – I know that show is good, but every time I start watching a new season I’m surprised anew how good. ( Read more... ) Prison Break – it’s boring, I only watch Mahone and T-bag’s scenes, ( Read more... ) Torchwood – it’s like a fanfic come to life and I love it. I don’t expect much from it, though. I knew the 2nd ep would be much worse than the 1st and it was. ( Read more... ) I will also be watching new episodes of Chuck and House and I want to check The Sarah Connor Chronicles because I love Summer Glau. And the 1st season of Brothers & Sisters, because they started showing it on Polish TV. And Mad Men. Current Mood: busy Tags: prison break, the wire, torchwood

09:31 pm - Torchwood tonight!!!!! I wanted to write a long and meaningful post about my trip to London and seeing Aidan Gillen on stage in „Glengarry Glen Rose” and talking to him after the play. Ok, so it probably wouldn’t be long and meaningful, just long and full of squee, but I can’t think about anything else but Torchwood today. Why, oh why didn’t I stay in England till Thursday? Then I could watch Jack/John hot kiss with czeri on TV at 9 p.m. instead of waiting for a torrent to appear on the net. And I don’t have much faith in Chris Chibnall, who wrote that 1st ep, but what do I care about the bad script when I have John Barrowman kissing James Marsters on my screen. :) Current Mood: very, very impatient Tags: torchwood

10:50 pm - House season 4 I don’t like House anymore. :( House the show, not House the character. Although with the horrible writing this season only Hugh Laurie’s incredible talent keeps me from disliking Greg House completely. Apart from the first one I didn’t like any episode this season. I don’t want to not like House. I want to love it like I did during the 1st and 2nd season and the beginning of the 3rd. ( Read more with spoilers for season 4 ) *sigh* I think I need to find myself a new show to fall in love with. Current Mood: disappointed Tags: house

06:58 pm - I love T.S. Eliot Gacked from dustandroses You're Prufrock and Other Observations! by T.S. Eliot Though you are very short and often overshadowed, your voice is poetic and lyrical. Dark and brooding, you see the world as a hopeless effort of people trying to impress other people. Though you make reference to almost everything, you've really heard enough about Michelangelo. You measure out your life with coffee spoons. Take the Book Quiz at the Blue Pyramid.
