Doctor Who Countdown - Day of the Doctor

So I am a late bloomer when it comes to Doctor Who. I was interested in a while, but need to watch things from the pilot on ward in order to really watch a series. Sine Doctor Who started before I was born, I kept pushing it off.

THEN, a friend told me I could survive if I started with the ninth Doctor - and so I did.

SPACE channel (nerdy Canadian channel) started airing 8 episodes every Sunday in preparation for the 50th anniversary and so I have (mostly) kept up with those by marathoning episodes as I have time.

I fell a bit behind due to Halloween party planning and work and real life, but I am back at it and almost finished the tenth Doctor (David Tennant *swoons*) and ready to start the eleventh doctor soon (Matt Smith, who I met at Comic-Con in July.. saved his life actually #truestory )

Unfortunately, the local theatres sold out of the 50th anniversary Doctor Who tickets, but I have plans to go to a friend and colleagues house to watch unless we can somehow score some tickets if they release more.

Day of the Doctor Nov. 23 - who will be watching?

Hypable compiled a list of the particularly awesome things we see in this short preview:

0:07 – Gallifrey, seemingly before the Time War.
0:20 – Our first official look at Smith and Tennant working together in character.
0:25 – There’s a view of Rose with her eyes looking all Bad Wolf-y.
0:29 – Clara disappearing via the Vortex manipulator, which can be a throwback to Captain Jack’s own Vortex manipulator.
0:034 – John Hurt’s Doctor mysteriously reaching for a diamond. Could this be what he used to end the Time War?

We’re ridiculously excited about this trailer, as it gives us a whole new look into what the 50th anniversary Doctor Who special has to offer.

Earlier this week the synopsis for the trailer was released, which reads, “The Doctors embark on their greatest adventure in this 50th anniversary special. In 2013, something terrible is awakening in London’s National Gallery; in 1562, a murderous plot is afoot in Elizabethan England; and somewhere in space an ancient battle reaches its devastating conclusion. All of reality is at stake as the Doctor’s own dangerous past comes back to haunt him.”

Hunger Games Theme Parks may be coming....

This would be epic-amazing! I absolutely LOVE Harry Potter World, and can only imagine how amazing it would be to visit a "Hunger Games" theme park... compete in the arena? Ride the train into the capitol? visit the different districts? go though training? hmmmm.... Sounds like lot's of possibilities!

Variety reports:

Lionsgate is exploring getting into the theme-park business, taking advantage of its blockbuster “Hunger Games” franchise.

CEO Jon Feltheimer made the disclosure Friday during a conference call with analysts following release of the studio’s quarterly earnings report.

Feltheimer said Lionsgate had been approached about “Hunger Games” theme parks in two territories and was considering those possibilities. He gave no further details.

The CEO’s disclosure came in response to an analyst question about which areas of “Hunger Games” merchandising had performed well. Motion Picture Group Co-Chairman Rob Friedman had said that Lionsgate was “very excited” by sales of the “Capitol Couture” line of attire.

Theo James voice for car commercial

Thanks to my bloggy sisters at Trisandfour.com for finding this!! 

Theo James, Four/Tobias in the Divergent movie, is the voice in this commercial... the accent, the tone, very sexy!

Divergent Character Poster: Miles Teller as Peter

Fandango released the last character poster for this week's 'poster a day' campaign from Summit/Lionsgate.

Check out Miles Teller as Peter Hayes, the central antagonist in the film and one of Tris' mortal enemies! 

Who was your fave this week? Christina was the one I was most looking forward too and not going to lie - pretty bad ass! She was my most favourite to meet at Comic-Con of the 5 this week.

Homeland Season 3 continues to surprise...

Hypable writes:

One of Homeland’s exciting aspects this season is its ability to be completely unpredictable (for better or for worse). Once we learn what Saul wants out of Javadi, perhaps the season’s endgame will become clearer.

We suspect his ideas may have something to do with Brody. We’re also certain that whatever Saul has in mind, it has to be done in time for him to show the president that he can remain CIA Director.

Another clip from Homeland season 3, episode 7 depicts Adal telling Quinn that he’s the lead suspect in episode 6′s double murder thanks to a security camera at a neighbor’s home.

Episode 7 “Icarus” airs Sunday, November 10 at 9 p.m. eastern/pacific on Showtime.

Divergent Character poste: Zoe Kravitz as Christina

Huffington Post has the exclusive today for Divergent's daily character poster reveals. This is the one I have been most waiting for - Zoe Kravitz as Christina...

Of course you can see all the posters and fan art and animated posters at the official Divergent Tumblr site here.

Divergent Character poster: Eric - Jai Courtney

Eric is a brutal force with a damaged moral compass. His cruel training methods and ruthless leadership make him a quick adversary to Tris, the Abnegation transfer and protagonist of the story.
