If you're like me, you've been panicked for the last month because the beginning of Series 7 of "Doctor Who" had been announced for the UK but not for the U.S. AHHH!!! Makes my head explode! Awful!
It has been announced today that the U.S. will get new "Doctor Who" on September 8th.
The fact that the UK is getting the show August 25th means that BBC will probably be feeling the wrath of the bit torrent.
Okay, so Arthur Darvill isn't really a conventional hottie. He's kind of an Adrian Brody hottie. You know? You don't realize you're attracted to him until you've been staring at him for a couple seasons. I have only seen Arthur Darvill in "Doctor Who" though to be fair, he hasn't been in a whole lot else. I very much enjoy watching playing Rory A.K.A The Best Boyfriend Ever. I mean, Rory may have accidentally shot his wife because he was a robot but at least he waited around for 2000 years to protect her. Nice guy, right? Rory and Amy's love is beautiful. They need each other. Rory wouldn't even exist if it weren't for Amy.
Can you tell I'm really jonesing for new Doctor Who?
The BBC has announced their plans for their "Doctor Who" 50th Anniversary! We will be getting a 90 minute tv movie! Woo! There aren't really any detail at this time but I am sure some will surface... eventually.
Until then, I will rock back and forth chanting, "Doctor, Doctor..." until that daft old man comes back on my tv with a new adventure.
I literally put down the Ravenclaw scarf I am knitting to write about this. I'm not making this stuff up. According to The Telegraph*, Miss Emma Watson has very recently signed on with Guillermo Del Toro on his new "Beauty and the Beast" period piece movie. How freaking exciting! Not a lot is known about this project at this time but with a director like Del Torro, it is sure to be an eye-gasm.
If you are unaware of Del Torro's work, he is the moon-faced little man responsible for such visually stunning movies as "Pan's Labrynthe," "Hellboy," "Hell Boy 2," and "Puss in Boots." Okay, fine they can't all be genius works... Hopefully Del Torro will bring his eye for beautiful sets and costuming to this re-imagination of a classic story.
For Miss Watson's role, while it has not been announced at this time, I am going to venture to guess she will be in the starring role. No much worth in mentioning it if she's only going to be a hand-maiden. I will be eagerly watching IMDB.com for confirmation of my amateur speculations.
While we're waiting ever impatiently for this beauty of a movie to put in our grubby little hands, it is my recommendation that everyone checks out "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," starring Emma Watson next month. This is a movie I will be viewing opening weekend and will probably have a very strong opinion about.
There is still no word as to the exact date of the Series 7 premiere. All I know is that it can't come soon enough!!! I miss new Doctor Who so very very much. I have been craving it. I went back and watched older episodes yesterday and I think it just made the longing worse.
