Fannish Items of Interest

For those that have access to it and are in the right area, (it apparently varies) Comcast On Demand has the first half of season 1 of Doctor Who. Unlike the airings on the Sci-Fi Channel, they are all uncut. Yesterday, I watched The Unquiet Dead--and apparently more was cut from the Sci-Fi Channel airings than I ever knew. I didn’t start downloading the uncut episodes until a few episodes into season 3, so I’ll be watching the episodes as they’re added.

There’s an interesting essay on the Tenth Doctor that was just written for idol_reflection--go here to read it.

From Funny or Die, you can watch The Ballad of GI Joe. Alan Tudyk is apparently in there somewhere, but I couldn’t recognize him. It’s probably only to those who actually know anything about GI Joe at all—unlike me. I only know one or two character’s names. Going by the cast list, the only other actors in there that I’ve heard of are Alexis Bledel (didn’t spot her) and Julianne Moore (saw her). Io9 posts about it here.

The latest “I’m a Marvel…and I’m a DC” can be seen here. This one is between Green Lantern and Deadpool.

You can watch the trailer for The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus here.

From Slashfilm, I’ve learned that apparently there’s going to be a remake of Red Dawn. The only reason I’ve ever heard of that movie is because of I Love The 80’s. Also from Slashfilm—apparently, there’s going be a movie based on the Viewmaster. Yes, the toy.
