The hubs and I have been Fringe addicts since day one. But I do clearly remember our friends complaining at first that they didn’t dig the main character, Olivia Dunham. They would say that her acting was weak and they didn’t like her cadence. I also clearly remember correcting all of them as quickly as possible: she’s Australian! I guess I instantly had a girl crush on Ms. Torv. I attribute it to her strong, bad ass persona. This only escalated when I had a run in with her at Comic Con. Please ask me where. Only the worst place for a celebrity run in: the women’s bathroom. These things only happen to me.
An Ode to Comic Con
I’ve had such good memories at Comic Con the past two years.
I think that’s why it makes me so sad that I will not be in attendance this year.
I can’t mourn my loss for too long though. The only reason I am not
going is because we are going to Europe in November, so complaining just
feels a little silly. However, that doesn’t mean that I can’t reminiscence about all the
good times I did have. Here are some of my most favorite moments from SDCC
2009 and 2010. Looking forward to 2012!
Happy Hump Day: Seth Gabel
I never thought my little Fringe family could get more lovable. Between Olivia, Peter and Walter, my little TV heart was content. But surprise! Lincoln Lee, played by the adorable Seth Gabel, managed to burrow his way in. I kind of blame J.J. Abrams and his wonderful characters and story lines. Talented bastard. But I digress. How cute is this boy with his little nerdy glasses and suits? And as if he wasn’t cute enough on his own, he’s married to the adorable Bryce Dallas Howard. I’m pretty sure they could make it on an entry of Cute Overload, but that’s just me. I’ll allow you all to make your own decision after the jump!
Lovable Friday
I’m sure some of you remember when I featured what I believe will be my new favorite movie, The Romantics, on Lovable Friday last month. Well, the very stylish and beautiful cast has been chosen to model J. Crew’s new fall fashion line. I think J. Crew’s modern yet classic aesthetic fits in perfectly with the young and hip actors from the film. My only complaint is…where’s Elijah? For more pictures from the shoot, click here!
Comic Con Wrap Up: Day 3
Saturday is usually the busiest day at Comic Con, but this year it seemed to be relatively calm. Please note: seemed. We woke up bright and early at 4am, stumbled into our clothes and jumped in the car. What could possibly have had us up and at ‘em at such an hour? No one else but the boy who lived: Harry Potter.
When we plopped down in (the already massive) line at 5:30am, we were not fully functional and definitely not looking forward to sitting stationery for the next 6 hours. But we were troopers. We napped, we gossiped, we tweeted, we photographed and before we knew it, it was 10:30am and we were being moved into Hall H.
And my sinuses rebelled.
My nose just erupted into hot itchy mess that made me want to rip it off my face and not even a Claritin could help. This lasted the rest of the day. I seriously had moments where I thought I could possibly be allergic to one of the two spectrums: nerd or hot men. Because Saturday was full of both.
