<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Also that explicit sex scene in this video is kind of a big deal, because censorship, especially of sex, is still done all the time on South Korean television. </span>mona bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04986445916209008509noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963897216124277675.post-67020424498208460202012-09-27T09:21:00.000-04:002012-09-27T09:21:10.603-04:00let's peep elmo's wardrobe!<br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I had no idea that <i>Oldboy's</i> director Park Chan-wook was making English-language films. This one looks a bit like an extra creepy, gender swapped Hamlet, where instead of whining about it Hamlet possibly actually does something about Uncle Murder.

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Several of the ladies of <i>Game of Thrones </i>made an appearance on the Emmy red carpet (The show was nominated for Best Drama). Lena rocked her usual gothic queen look that suits her so well, and Emilia wore white (Again. Seriously, I don't think I've ever seen her in not a white dress). Peter Dinklage (who was nominated for Best Supporting again, even though he was lead actor this season) and Richard Madden were also there, but they were just wearing basic black tuxes. There were no wins for the show at the awards last night, but the show did pick up 6 Creative Arts Emmys last week. I think it won the most overall with those six, but it's still disappointing that a genre show can't win at the regular awards. </span><br /><br />mona bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04986445916209008509noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963897216124277675.post-31772971923168653042012-09-20T20:53:00.001-04:002012-09-20T20:53:56.450-04:00so this might be my favourite thing i've internetted today<iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/GivkxpAVVC4" width="560"></iframe>

I have no idea what it has to do with Sherlock, but it's hilarious. And their little detective outfits are cute. </div>mona bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04986445916209008509noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963897216124277675.post-79982644807391885702012-04-22T12:39:00.000-04:002012-04-22T12:39:00.954-04:00really big fall 2012 collections post at 404.org<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I just wrote a piece on the Fall/Winter 2012 collections inspired by science fiction or fantasy over at blog404.org. </span><br />

But after 3 months of TV boredom, all my favourites (and new shows that I have been interested since their announcement) are coming! I like to think it's all for my birthday, because I'm self centred like that, so thank you cable!</span><br /><br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/qzVSchaagNg" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="640"></iframe><br /><br style="font-family: courier new;"><span style="font-family: courier new;">First of all,</span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;"> Game of Thrones</span><span style="font-family: courier new;">! April 1st!! Yaaaaaay! HBO has released like, a trailer a week for the past two months, building the hype, but here's the latest one. Also: I saw Melisandre's costume guys! It was AWESOME!</span><br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/W9D51DVMS1w" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="640"></iframe><br /><br /><span style="font-family: courier new;">Next up, premiering on April 6th, is Starz's </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">Magic City</span><span style="font-family: courier new;">. It's their take on a midcentury period piece, a la </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">Mad Men</span><span style="font-family: courier new;">. But it's starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan (who is amazing), is more of a crime drama, and takes place in 1950s Miami, so I think it's going to be a very different show. If it can stand up to </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">Mad Men</span><span style="font-family: courier new;">, which is back this Sunday (!!!) though, remains to be seen.</span><br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xZ6Qr4kxc3U" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="640"></iframe><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">The Borgias</span><span style="font-family: courier new;"> also comes back on April 6th! I love </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">The Borgias</span><span style="font-family: courier new;">, second hottest cast on TV after </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">GoT</span><span style="font-family: courier new;">! And this season looks to be even more action packed than the last!</span><br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/9RIqj_ZgGN0" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="640"></iframe><br /><br /><span style="font-family: courier new;">From </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">Tiny Furniture</span><span style="font-family: courier new;"> Writer and Director Lena Dunham, and producer Judd Apatow, this is cable's answer to the trend of 20-something young women sitcoms. And as a twenty something young women, I appreciate being represented. I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but for a really long time most shows starring women were either about teenage girls or women who are 35+! I think the only show with a twenty something was </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">Ugly Betty</span><span style="font-family: courier new;"> (remember </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">Ugly Betty?</span><span style="font-family: courier new;">).</span><br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/soJggb_jDL8" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="640"></iframe><br /><br style="font-family: courier new;"><span style="font-style: italic; font-family: courier new;">Veep</span><span style="font-family: courier new;"> is another HBO show, from Thick of It creator Armando Iannucci. It also stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus AND Tony Hale (ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT REUNION!!!) so I am THERE with bells on. It premieres April 22. </span>mona bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04986445916209008509noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963897216124277675.post-45379216657304859712012-03-06T16:56:00.004-05:002012-03-06T16:58:10.417-05:00bigbang's fantastic baby video<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/AAbokV76tkU" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" width="640"></iframe><br /><br /><span style="font-family: courier new;">The clothes are even awesomer than usual in K-Pop's biggest boyband's latest video.
