Why why why why is it not airing until 2013? I need it!!!!!!

Thanks att123 for reminding me of this. Here is the long trailer for CW's Beauty and the Beast:



I need this right NOW! It hits so many of my shippy kinks, it's insane. Plus, it's a bit Government conspiracy/fantasy/scifi-ish which is a favorite genre.

And speaking of things I need, have this new, longer Arrow trailer:



Angsty masked vigilantes are clearly an obsession of mine, as my fixation with Bridal Mask proves, so bring this on. Plus, arrows and hotness. MMMMMMMM.

CW is clearly where it's at for me, which means I am an eternal 15-yr-old girl at heart. Luckily, that's something I've come to terms with a while ago :P

1. I don't watch that many jdramas any more, but I have fallen under the sweet, cracky spell of Shiritsu Bakaleia Koukou.

I can almost belive that this delightful half-hour a week show is based on some manga I would have been obsessed about when younger (aww, who am I kidding? I'd still obsess over it). The premise is certainly pure shoujo crack - a derelict all-boys school whose students are all dedicated to fighting merges with an upper-class, super-refined all-girls school. Heeeee..



There is a ridiculously cute OTP: she - proper, ladylike, strongwilled head of girls' school. He - scruffy, emotion-driven excellent fighter head of boys' school. There are typical shoujo situations, a spiffy soundtrack, a surprsingly winning cast, and there are the typical jdrama lessons about teamwork and loyalty. The whole set-up - refined, ladylike ladies are needed to tame macho guys who are unkempt, rough, and love fighting - is a very traditional idea stripped shamelessly bare to its bones but it works.

( Caps from ep 2, which is as far as I am into it. I dare you not to like )

2. If this amazing MV by joonni doesn't touch you, there is something wrong with you.



It pretty much encapsulates how perfect the OTP of Queen In Hyun's Man was. QIHM is not my n1. 2012 drama (though it came close), but Hee Jin/Bong Do are certainly my 2012 OTP:

3. In case you missed it, here is the HD preview for ep 5 of Gaksital.



I need this ep in my life ASAP! I've seen speculation that the Gaksital we see here is Kang To, donning the mask to rescue Dan. I would love it to be true (what's not to love? KT strikes me as someone who would put this on to protect someone he cares about - he is capable of immense love for the small group of people he cares for, is impulsive and hot-tempered, and has a certain disregard for rules) but I don't really think so - where would he get the mask - I am assuming they are less popular marketplace items now, with the cops hunting the wearer. And it might be too soon for him to both discover who Gaksital really is AND borrow the stuff from him.

[Poll #1846158]

4. I continue enjoying Dr. Jin for Song Seung Heon's sexy grimy face and his chemistry with Park Min Young. Lee Bum Soo is stealing the show. Jaejoong's character crossed an irrevocable line when he burned the village down (!!!) - I can understand what drove him to it, but there are some things you do not do and I think that would have lost him Young Rae's heart for good. JJ is a decent actor, especially for an idol, but I wish this role had a really good actor because that role has a lot of potential.

Off to watch ep 6 of A Gentleman's Dignity now.

The amazing iheartcleenex just linked me to a trailer of Tengo Ganas De Ti, the sequel to A Tres Metros Sobre el Cielo, the Spanish movie I was obsessed with last year.




OMFG I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE RIGHT NOW PLEASE!!!!

Arrow (CW):



Batman meets Robin Hood means I am in (though nobody stows their bow strung, ARGH!!!). Plus, it's CW so we are guaranteed a lot of hot guys and wangst.

Beauty and the Beast (CW):



I am a sucker for that type of narrative and I never saw the original so the whole 'remake' thing doesn't bother me at all. Plus, see what I said about CW as far as hotness and angst.

Revolution (NBC):



I love dystopias and this one has swords!

Elementary:



Johnny Lee Miller! Lucy Liu! I love everything about it, including the possibility of the leads getting it on. Moffat fans are up in arms because omg something. But then I can't stand Moffat and his horrifying portrayal of women so there...

Thanks for the heads-up, timescout and clariere (I took it from the latter :P).



It really does look amazing, like a period City Hunter. Bring it on, masked vigilante in the 1930s!
