Ideas from my hyperactive brain...

Soooo... a while back someone mentioned the idea of writing a series of 'fractured fairytale' fanfics. It's an awesome idea, but I forgot it after a while.

At least until a related idea showed up...

it'd be essentially very similar, only this would be taking either the plot in general, or just a particular scene, from a musical and... adjusting it with characters from one of my many, many fandoms.

So far, I've got:

The song "I Know Him So Well" (Chess), with DW/Torchwood. (I can't decide if the song is Jack/Doctor or Jack/Ianto. It might even be both....)

A very specific scene from Les Miserables, with Leverage. My brain has apparently cast Parker as Cosette. So... yeah.

The third idea (so far...) is probably my favourite: The Phantom of the (Genetic) Opera. Basically, Phantom of the Opera, with Repo! characters.

(Pavi is the Phantom, Shilo is Christine, Graverobber is Raoul.)

Now, I just have to find the time to actually *write* these. Heh.

AHHHHHHHHHHH

There was a trailer for Inglourious Basterds on Channel 4 just now.

I literally went OMGSQUEE.

Then I saw that it's out ON THE 19TH OF AUGUST. WITH ADVANCE SCREENINGS NEXT WEEK.

I am now RIDICULOUSLY EXCITED.




(Oh, and I was watching Ugly Betty before and had a WHOA WTF moment when I realised that Captain Hottie (off of Lost) just joined the cast.

And he's still totally hot. Dammit.)
