Fannish Items of Interest

Io9 has a lovely obit discussing the life of Elisabeth Sladen. Dork Tower has this, of K-9 missing his Mistress. The BBC has Tributes Paid To Elisabeth Sladen, including reactions from David Tennant, Matt Smith, Russell T. Davies, and Steven Moffat. Tom Baker reacts to the news in his blog.

Sol Saks, creator of Bewitched, has passed away at the age of 100, as a result of respiratory failure caused by pneumonia. May he rest in peace. I was obsessed with that show when I was probably 9 or 10 years old.

Another new trailer for X-Men: First Class, with only one or two slight differences.

Do you remember the Darth Vader car commercial? Marvel has released their version, with Thor, as a promo for the movie.

The Dork Tower panel makes me tear up, Every. Single. Time.

Then Tennant's quote did it again.

And then there's the icon I'm using now, which takes on a whole new meaning now that we've lost them.

Tennant was the one I was waiting on because he was such a fanboy before he was ever the Doctor. So he got to meet someone he was a fan of before (School Reunion's huge grin says it all) and the to get to work with and help her series occasionally? Big deal for a fanboy. And then to get to know her? Gotta be hard. So much of self-wrapped up there.

Thor commercial wins. :)
