Musicals And Their Best Song

1. Wicked - Defying Gravity
2. Sweeney Todd - A Little Priest
3. West Side Story - America
4. Gypsy - Rose's Turn
5. Cats - Shimbleshanks The Railway Cat

I'm not a big fan of musicals in general, but these songs are just plain awesome!

Quotes Yet To Be Typographied

In addition to my last post, these quotes are definitely worthy of being typographied:

1. Come what may
2. You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain
3. Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?
4. Am I bovvered?
5. EXTERMINATE. ANNIHILATE. DESTROY.
6. Shall we sing about it again?
7. Well, if that's love, it comes at much to high a cost

Suggestions anyone?

-HipsterForce

Words With Style

As you may have noticed, I am very fond of quotes. I am also very fond of writing and drawing. Therefore, I have made a tumblog about typography:

I hope you like it. It's not going great because I have trouble figuring out Photoshop, so everything looks like it was made with Paint...

Team Voldermort or Team harry?

(Since when is it Voldermort instead of Voldemort? Did I miss the memo?)

-Definitely Team Voldemort. He's a more insteresting person than Harry. Also, the people following him are cooler. And he has a FREAKIN' SNAKE!

Beetlejuice Review

IMDb Rating: 7.3
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 81%
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Alec Baldwin, Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara
Genre: Fantasy, Comedy

I liked this movie, because it's one of the most absurd and crazy movies I've ever seen. The story itself isn't really all that interesting (although it is wildly original), but all the special effects (prosthetic make-up, green screens, stop-motion etc.) make it look like a B- list movie with A-list actors. And who doesn't love B-list movies with A-list actors?

SPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERS

The story is about a married couple that dies in a car crash. They turn into ghosts and are required to stay in their house for a long time (I forgot how long. SHAME ON ME!). A new family moves into their home and of course, it's not a really nice family. Mom is an "artist" that makes horrible sculptures, dad doesn't care about his daughter. The only one that is actually sane is the girl, Lydia. She hates her family and does everything to get away from them. The ghosts try to scare away the family, releasing a "bio-exorcist" called Betelgeuse (pronounced Beetlejuice, hence the title) in their attempts.
Betelgeuse terrorises the family and almost marries Lydia. The ghosts gets rid of Betelgeuse just in time and befriend the family.

_______
Adam: What are your qualifications?
Betelgeuse: Ah. Well... I attended Juilliard... I'm a graduate of the Harvard business school. I travel quite extensively. I lived through the Black Plague and had a pretty good time during that. I've seen the EXORCIST ABOUT A HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SEVEN TIMES, AND IT KEEPS GETTING FUNNIER EVERY SINGLE TIME I SEE IT... NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT YOU'RE TALKING TO A DEAD GUY... NOW WHAT DO YOU THINK? You think I'm qualified?_______

30DHPC Day Thirteen

Least fave movie?

-Four. I have a few reasons for this:
1. None of my favourite characters (Luna, Bellatrix, Tonks, Remus, Umbridge, Xenofilius etc.) were in it.

2. Dumbledore was VERY angry all the time.

3. There was less tension than in the other movies.

Don't get me wrong, it's still a great movie, just less fun to watch than the rest.

That Awesome Moment When...

1. You find out that The Doctor has danced to the song Crazy Little Thing Called Love.

2. You realise you've got a cookie left over.

3. You find out Squidward likes Krabby Patties and you make a weird face.

4. People tell you that you look like a hipster.

5. You see a random squirrel.

6. You are still alive and awesome.

30DHPC Day Twelve

Fave ship?

(This means relationship, amirite?)
-The non-existing relationship between Bellatrix and Voldemort. It's really touching to see how she obsesses over him and he's all like: "GTFO bitch, I am superior to you."
I also like Lupin-Tonks, but Rowling didn't really work that out in the books.

Best Lines From The Eleventh Hour

Yesterday I watched The Eleventh Hour (the first episode with Matt Smith as the Doctor in Doctor Who) again, and I felt I just had to write down a few amazing quotes.

SPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERS

Young Amy: Are you okay?
The Doctor: Just had a fall. All the way down there, right to the library. Hell of a climb back up.
Young Amy: You're soaking wet.
The Doctor: I was in the swimming pool.
Young Amy: You said you were in the library.
The Doctor: So was the swimming pool.


Young Amy: What is it? What's wrong with you?
The Doctor: Wrong with me? It's not my fault, why can't you give me any decent food! You're Scottish, fry something!


[Amy begins cooking]
The Doctor: Ahh! Bacon!
[the Doctor eats the bacon, then promptly spits it out]
The Doctor: That's bacon! Are you trying to poison me?
[Amy begins cooking again]
The Doctor: Beans!
[the Doctor eats the fried beans, and promptly spits them out]
The Doctor: Beans are evil. Bad bad beans.
[Amy butters a slice of plain bread]
The Doctor: Bread and butter! Now you're talking.
[the Doctor runs outside and flings the bread and butter out]
The Doctor: And stay out!


The Doctor: Do I just have a face that nobody listens to? Again.

The Doctor: [Realising he is actually 12 years late] Why did you say six months?
Amy Pond: He's coming.
The Doctor: This matters. This is important. Why did you say six months?
Amy Pond: [Revealing her Scottish accent] WHY DID YOU SAY FIVE MINUTES?

Amy Pond: Twelve years, and four psychiatrists!
The Doctor: Four?
Amy Pond: I kept biting them!
The Doctor: Why?
Amy Pond: They said you weren't real.

Amy Pond: You're worse than my aunt!
The Doctor: I'm the Doctor, I'm worse than everybody's aunt!

The Doctor: No TARDIS, no screwdriver, two minutes to spare... Who da man?
[blank stares from Prisoner Zero, Rory, and Amy]
The Doctor: Alright, I'm never saying that again, fine!

The Doctor: C'mon, then! The Doctor will see you now!
Atraxi: [after scanning The Doctor] You are not of this world.
The Doctor: No but I've put a lot work into it.
Atraxi: Is this world important?
The Doctor: Important? What's that mean, important? Six billion people live here, is that important? Here's a better question: is this world a threat to the Atraxi? Oh come on, you're monitoring the whole planet! Is this world a threat?
Atraxi: [after looking at a montage of world events] No.
The Doctor: Are the peoples of this world guilty of any crime by the laws of the Atraxi?
Atraxi: [after viewing another montage about earth] No.
The Doctor: Okay. One more, just one: is this world protected?
[as the Atraxi views a montage of all the aliens who have attacked humanity in some way]
The Doctor: You're not the first to have come here. Oh, there have been so many. And what you've got to ask is, what happened to them?
[Atraxi looks at a montage of the past ten Doctors. The Doctor steps through the montage when the 10th Doctor is shown]
The Doctor: Hello. I'm the Doctor. Basically. Run.

[seeing his new TARDIS for the first time]
The Doctor: Look at you. Oh, you sexy thing, look at you!

The Doctor: Amy Pond, there's something you'd better understand about me cause it's important, and one day your life may depend on it: I am definitely a mad man with a box!

So far this is my favourite episode.

Useless Trivia

Our brain was made to learn these facts:

1. Michael Keaton's real name is Michael Douglas.

2. If one were to get the body of a member of the Winx Club (a Nickelodeon series), that person would have to remove a few vital organs, a few ribs and they would be infertile.

3. Pigeons can recognise the faces of humans.

4. Nicole Kidman has,in addition to her having a supporting role in Batman Forever, been in a movie with at least one of the actors in every other Batman series: She worked with Michael Keaton (in My Life) from the Burton series, with Clooney (in The Peacemaker) from Batman & Robin, and with Aaron Eckhart (in Rabbit Hole) from the Nolan series.

5. There is a hidden alien in every single South Park episode.

-Probably Luna, because she has a wicked clothing style and doesn't really care what people think about her, though she can be sad about it sometimes. She is really quiet but she defends things she likes.

Batman Review

IMDb Rating: 7.6/10
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 71%
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Michael Keaton, Jack Nicholson, Michael Gough, Tim Burton
Genre: Superhero, action, fantasy

Of all superheroes ever to roam the face of popular culture, Batman is by far my favourite. It's very important that a movie about him does justice to what he is. Batman (1989)does succeed at doing that, though only to some extent. The action is exhilarating, the characters are gripping and when Keaton first identifies himself as Batman, the sensation is simply bone-chilling. The story is a primal but thought-through Batman vs. Joker battle. The latter, brilliantly performed by Jack Nicholson, gives a whole new demension to the ancient character. However, I do feel the need to note that the plot doesn't spend much time on the inner tempers of either of the main characters. Bruce Wayne's pain and Batman being his way of coping are barely visible. Joker is often left unexplained, but in this interpretation a bit more motive than an urge for attention would give him more depth.

SPOILERSPOILERSSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSSPOILERSSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSSPOILERBITCe!

The plot in Batman mainly concerns Batman. It starts with the legendary shooting of his parents, this time not by Joe Chill, but a for now unknown mobster. Then the current situation in Gotham City is shown. Crime and injustice rule the streets and gang lord Grissom holds the throne. However, due to recent efforts by the authority, he could be pinned to a crooked chemicals manufactor. He sends his over-ambitious right-hand, Jack Napier, to destroy the evidence. The job turns out to be a set-up, and Napier ends up in a vat of toxic chemicals. After a botched surgery, he reappears as the villain we've all come to fear and love. He proceeds to wreak havoc and extract his revenge on all he believes have wronged him in a crusade for recognition. It's up to Batman to thwart his schemes to disfigure all of Gotham's denizens to his image. Batman finds out Joker is the crook who shot his parents years ago. Joker in turn learns of Batman's interest in the reporter, Vicki Vale, and takes her hostage in a bell tower, where he intends to marry her. Batman takes the bait and in the ensuing battle, Napier is unfortunately killed. Hahahahahahahahaha.

30DHPC Day Nine

Least fave male character.

-Hmmm, tough one. Harry is obviously the most boring person because you know almost everything about him. Ron is just always being plain stupid and all the other male characters have next to no influence on the story. I guess I don't have a least favourite male character. The only male characters that are really cool are Voldemort, Lupin, Neville and Kingsley Shacklebolt.

[After five minutes of thinking]

I got it! Lockhart! He is extremely annoying and the character is being played by Kenneth Branagh. I'll never forgive him for Thor...

Desktop Ponies

The best invention since snuggies! Desktop freakin' PONIES! It's basically a programme you can install, so almost every pony from MLP [FIM] walks across your desktop. I was delighted to find out that you can't only add the mane six to your desktop, but almost every character, like Carrot Top, Winona, Nightmare Moon and Pinkamena. Currently, Pinkie Pie is doing cartwheels, Princess Luna is jumping around, Fluttershy is sleeping and Doctor Whooves is spewing out Doctor Who quotes. And all on my screen!
God, I love them so much!

Doctor Whooves has a digital fez. Digital fezzes are cool.

TV Show Stuff

Pick your top 5 shows and answer the following questions. Don’t cheat.

1. Doctor Who
2. My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
3. Brainiac
4. Glee (shame, shame...)
5. Spongebob

(Not a list that will make me popular, but hey, at least I'm honest)

1. Who is your favorite character in 2?

-Definitely Fluttershy, she's so cute.

2. Who is your least favorite character in 1?

-Don't really know. I think River Song. Not because I don't like the character, but because for an outsider like me it's really complicated to understand her story.

3. What’s your favourite episode of 4?:

-The Lady Gaga Episode. I didn't really like the songs, because Lady Gaga isn't really my style, but I loved the weird outfits.

4. What is your favorite season of 5?

-The first few. The later ones were getting unoriginal.

5. What’s your favorite relationship in 3?:

-The relationship between aluminium and ironoxide. It makes thermite, which melts through almost everything!

6. Who is your anti relationship in 2?:

-Seriously? My Little Pony doesn't have relationships.

7. How long have you watched 1?:

-I've seen about six complete episodes so far and four half. Working on it though.

8. How did you become interested in 3?:

-It was on when I was having breakfast, and I just loved the British humour mixed with Ig Nobel Prize style science.

9. Who is your favorite actor in 4?:

-Chris Colfer. His voice is brilliant and Kurt is a great character.

10. Which show do you prefer, 1, 2, or 5?:

-Definitely 1.

11. Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3?

-Three, but I remember the Doctor Who episodes better.

12. If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be?:

-Kurt, because he has the best voice.

13. How would you kill off your favourite character in 1?:

-By throwing her (Donna) into Bellatrix. The star Bellatrix that is.

14. Would a 3/4 crossover work?:

-No. I'm sorry, but British humour is way too delicate to be touched by people other than Brits. Sigh. Sometimes I hate being Dutch.

15. Pair two characters in 1 that would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple:

-The Eleventh Doctor and Donna.

16. Over all, which show has a better cast, 3 or 5?:

-3.

17. Which has better theme music, 2 or 4?:

-Definitely a tie.

What house would you want to be in?

-I'd love to be in Ravenclaw, because I like the idea of intellect triumphing over brute force and cynicism (A not very subtle reference to the Doctor Who opening on the Late Late Show). I think it would also suit me best, because I would rather call myself smart than call myself brave, sneaky or a "hard worker" (everybody knows that Hufflepuff is for people who are actually squibs, but their parents just pay Hogwarts a lot of money.).
The only thing that bothers me is that my favourite character, Bellatrix, was in Slytherin. Slytherin seems to have given us a variety of people whose minds are screwed up in the weirdest ways. So I'd like to be in Slytherin as well. But Ravenclaw has the best motto: Wit beyond measure's a man's greatest treasure.

The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy Review

Too bad nobody likes this movie, it's really awesome...

IMDb Rating: 6.6
Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 60% rated fresh
Notable Cast/Crewmembers: Zooey Deschanel, Bill Nighy, Warwick Davis, Alan Rickman, Helen Mirren Stephen Fry and a cameo from Kelly McDonald.
Genre: Sci-fi, adventure, comedy

I thought it was a pretty funny movie, not only because it's an adaption of the awesome book, but also the way people and objects were presented. Everything had an atmosphere of weirdness and surrealness around it, like at any moment the director could yell 'cut' and the actors would climb out of the suits.
The only flaw it has, is that it's not a direct adaption of the novel. I was slightly disappointed at this, because I really liked the book. Still, the cast makes up for it by being just plain awesome.

This review, I will not plot the story for you, because it is really weird and I saw it three weeks ago, so it has kid of sunk away in my brain.

Today it hit me that memes, while they were a beacon of new hunour at first, they now are as unoriginal as apple pie. Look at the similarities between these memes:

-Pokémon vs. My Little Pony

-Rick Rolling vs. Trololololo Guy
-The Game vs. Fight Club vs. /b/
-Nyan Cat vs. Rainbow Bunchie
-Rebecca Black vs. Jenna Rose

-All your base are belong to us vs. Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
-What the...I don't even... vs. You accidentally the whole thing
-Rory Williams vs. Chuck Norris (Not really true, because they started the whole Rory thing under the assumption that he was the new Chuck Norris, but I don't care, I just wanted a reason to name Rory Williams, and I think I accidentally'd the whole thing)

But still, ME GUSTA memes.

-Yes. I was perfectly furious that they didn't tell anything about Ariana or Grindelwalt in the last film. For me, it was an important part of the book series because it made Dumbledore more real, instead of him just being an over-protective, all-mighty, wise person.

My Ultimate Pokémon Team

You know that I'm bored when I start talking about Pokémon teams. This team is mostly based on the cuteness of Pokémon:

1. Chikorita. So cute, and the first Pokémon I knew by name, I think.
2. Suicune. Beautiful and powerful.
3. Shaymin. SO MOFO-ING CUTE.
4. Mudkip. Because ebberybody lieks mudkips.
5. Articuno. He is like Nyan Cat, except he farts ice-glittery stuff.
6. Rick Astley. [RICK ASTLEY used SING!]

Day 28: Do you listen to Wizard Wrock, what do you think about it.
Day 29: Did you enjoy A Very Potter Musical.
Day 30: What affect has Harry Potter made on your life and how much does it mean to you


I've literally copied this from a website, any mistakes in the questions are not mine.
So, because today is the first day I will answer the first question:
Your fave book?
-Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows. I've read the other ones at least five times each, so they've started to become boring to me. This one, I have only read twice, once in Dutch and once in English, so it's fairly new to me.

Tumblr = Weird

So I've been on tumblr (pronounced tumblah) for a few months now, and this is only the second time I've logged in. It's not that I don't like it, it's more that before I didn't need it. I had this for blogging, Facebook for friends and Memebase for memes. However, today I found out that I do, really need tumblr. It turned out that tumblr is the base of almost every fandom I'm part of (My Little Pony, Tim Burton stuff, Doctor Who etc.). So today I have made a vow to use tumblr at least once every week (probably a lot more). I will not make real blogs, I'll only reblog stuff that I like. For all of you who have forgotten my tumblr adress thingy, here it is again:
