cleolindaI have just the lightest smattering of linkspam for you today, but make sure you read it, because there's another Sweeney Todd trailer, and (AND!) JK Rowling reveals that a prominent HP character is gay. Fundamentalists, start your righteous engines!
‘King and I’ star Deborah Kerr dies at 86.
Couple make burglar clean up at gunpoint. In Montgomery, of all places.
25 Secrets of Mona Lisa Revealed.
Elephants can literally sniff out danger.
Man gets life in 'Curious George' killing.
FBI raids illusionist Copperfield and finds millions.
Is Colbert's "presidential campaign" breaking FEC laws?; Entire Daily Show archive goes online.
Via Pumpkin Cake: The Wasteland in lolcat.
Hello Kitty assault rifle.
How to bake vampire cupcakes that bleed.
New/different Sweeney Todd trailer, now with even less singing.
Caspian's PrinceIs Fiiiine Speaks; Prince Caspian : The Warriors of Narnia.
It's official: Karl Urban is Trek's McCoy.
'Wolverine' Gets New Title, Release Date and Mutant Co-Stars.
OH MY GOD, BATTEN DOWN THE FANDOM WANK HATCHES: Rowling Says Dumbledore Is Gay. " 'Dumbledore is gay, actually,' replied Rowling as the audience errupted in surprise. She added that, in her mind, Dumbledore had an unrequited love affair with Gellert Grindelwald, Voldemort's predecessor who appears in the seventh book. After several minutes of prolonged shouting and clapping from astonshed fans, Rowling added, 'I would have told you earlier if I knew it would make you so happy.' " I can has Potterdämmerung now? Also, she says that Neville married Hannah Abbott. Is she ever going to pick a version of who married who and stick with it?
By the way--it's a quick linkspam because my eyes still ache a little from going to see The Nightmare Before Christmas in 3-D. I highly recommend going, by the way--3-D works really well with the stop-motion animation, even when it just separates the foreground out from the background, but particularly when shit goes flying across the screen. There's a point, also, where Jack leans forward at the end of some song or other where it feels like he is literally leaning out of the movie screen into the audience. Delightfully freakish, would see again. Warning: Tickets may be a dollar or two more expensive than usual because it includes the cost of some fairly swank glasses. Also: Make sure you stop by the ticket window to pick them up; we pre-ordered tickets and picked them up from a machine, only to wander around for ten minutes wondering where the glasses were.

Date: 2007-10-20 02:59 am (UTC)I would've picked Percy, personally. He always had a bit of a gay vibe to him. That does explain Dumbledore's extravagant clothing.

Date: 2007-10-20 03:02 am (UTC)I always kind of wondered if there were other students who were gay, if Rowling just left it out by choice or design or simply just never mentioned it. Even as the books matured I was struck by the lack of sexuality in them - although the last book alluded to some, it was never on the part of the main characters. I liked it that way, but I always wondered if there was more that went on behind closed doors that she thought of just never told us.

I'm not surprised, more like 'Oh, so all the slash I saw between AD/GG in Book 7 was not in my head' XD
I already loved Dumbledore to bits, but I think this made me love him even more.
