Doctor Who Series 9 Trailer

2 Comments

Wow, this was creepy.

Why are so many trailers for the 12th doctor creepy?

Okay, so my first thought on this was why the hell are there so many creepy horror movie monster rejects in this episode?

Was this a trailer for the series premiere episode or for the whole series 9?

Anyways, yes, this was a creepy trailer. The beginning of the trailer’s song really, really reminded me of Thunderstruck from AC/DC. And I feel like the only big thing to come out of the trailer is the appearance of Arya Stark at the end. I’ve never even read or watched Game of Thrones–I’m quite adamant about not doing so–but I will admit that she is my least disliked character of that series, haha. Back to the point, I feel like they’re making her cameo the whole draw or appeal for series 9. Seriously? I’m sure she’s a nice girl and her plot will be hella awesome, but I’m gonna need more than that to be excited for series 9, BBC. Please release more stuff to hook me in 🙂

Is anyone curious about Missy? I thought she was dead, but I guess the Master/Mistress never really dies. This trailer kinda made it seem like she was going to be a semi-companion. The way she stood by Clara made it look that way. I don’t quite like that idea though because she’s the MASTER. She’s supposed to be the enemy of the Doctor, right? Or a very delusional, evil old comrade of the Doctor…

Welp, I’ll be waiting for series 9 to come out this September!

 

P.S.
What happened to Danny? Will he be coming back? That was such a sad storyline.
Also, I heard that they were going to try to make the Doctor funnier? Which is kind of a weird thing to do. Haven’t you already established the Doctor and his persona in series 8? Going back and trying to change him now seems cheap and very weak….just saying….Also, he wasn’t unfunny, so what are they trying to do exactly?

I’m trying to catch up with SpiderGwen. I’m REALLY interested in her story at the moment. So far I’ve only read the first issue and it was only “meh”. I hope it gets better with an interesting plot. I really love her costume. I’m going to try to cosplay her for Awesome Con 🙂 I’ll try . I dont really have that much of an athletic body 🙁

I also got a Thor comic. I’ve seen PepperMonster’s cosplay of her all the time and I got curious about Thor now that Thor is a woman. I wanna know what’s the story.

And I got Doctor Who because why not? I love Doctor Who lol.

I also entered a raffle at the comic book store. Actually, I entered a bunch of raffles this FCBD weekend. Hopefully, I win something XD

THIS was my favorite buy of the weekend and probably my fave buy of the year so far!!!

I’ll be attmepting a Harley QUinn cosplay some time this year. Hopefully, it turns out okay *fingers crossed*

What did you all get for Free Comic Book Day?

Katsucon 2015

So I went to the National Harbor on Thursday to go pick up my badge from pre-registration and, boy, am I glad I did! It was about an hour long wait, but when I came back on Friday, I heard that the wait was nearly 4-5 hours long! I have nooooooo idea why! I was just so glad I got my badge earlier. Lesson learned.

Also another lesson learned? Get a hotel room even if you only live like a thirty minute drive away. It was horrible having to get up every morning, drive, find parking, and then navigate the con. I like the idea of getting dressed up and just going downstairs, lol. Maybe I’m just lazy. But it’s also because I can’t cosplay at home and drive. I get too many questions and stares.

I did manage to dress up in some Doctor Who (10th Doctor) stuff for one day. I love my shoes and tie! And of course my sonic screwdriver! I did get fitted for hobbit ears at the merchant hall. it didn’t go with my Doctor Who clothes, but I didn’t care! I love my ears! My ears are small so it was just great having someone show me how to modify them and glue them on to fit correctly.

Of course, the cosplays are always great. I love to people watch. I have a somewhat nice DSLR camera so people always ask if I have a website or something. No, I’m not a photographer. Not even a wannabe. I just like taking pics with my DSLR.

(Cosplayers: Bumblebee/???, Elsa/Dejavudea, Anna/???, Thranduil/Rattle-and-Burn, Legolas/Peppermonster, Tinkerbell/???, Mahouprince, Tooth Fairy/???, Jinx/Emzie)

Okay, I’ll admit it. That monster looks really, really, really familiar to me, but I can’t remember from where!! LOL!!!

The Chalk Twins were there and it was my first time seeing them. It’s amazing what they can do with chalk. I never really work with chalk or pastels or charcoals much. Lol, probably because I don’t want to clean up afterwards.

I saw a bunch of Castiels when I was leaving XD Supernatural peeps! I can’t wait for the Salute to Supernatural convention in July XD

Anyways, Katsucon was great. I’m definitely going to get a room next time so I can enjoy it better!

2015 Convention Lineup

Here is a list of the conventions I’m going to go to this year:

  1. Katsucon

    I hadn’t been to an anime convention in a while so I chose this one. Hopefully, I’ll see great cosplay! I know one of my favorite cosplayers will be going, MangoSirene. Maybe I’ll get to take pictures of some good cosplayers. I’m going to bring my DSLR and test it out ^_^ . Oh, and I hope I get to buy some great artworks!!! My favorite parts of conventions are the vendors’ room, the artist alley, and the people-watching XD
  2. HobbitCon3

    This will be my big trip of the year and possibly of my life. I’ve never been to Europe before, but I planned for this to be my geek pilgrimage or something, haha. I only had time and money to go to Germany and England, but I’m going to try to see so much in just two weeks!!! Castles, beer halls, Hobbit Con, bicycle tours, The Making of Harry Potter London Studio, Dr. Who Experience, London National Gallery, and all the typical, touristy London sites.

  3. Awesome Con

    I loved this convention last year. Haha, probably because I was accidentally one of the first people to get into the Billie Piper panel. “Accidentally” because I saw this random line forming so I figured “why not”, hahaha. I also got to use the TARDIS photo booth! XD This convention has grown huge in about a year. It had about 7,000 attendees two years ago and last year there were 40,000 attendees. It was crazy! I have NO idea how many people will attend this year around.
  4. Salute to Supernatural – 10th Anniversary

    I love Supernatural, but I’ve never been to one of these Salute to Supernatural conventions because of their location. Hopefully, it’s fun. The cast seems crazy, but fun hahaha. I’ve gotta draw some artwork for this convention for autographs.
  5. Anime USA

    Last minute addition! I figure that since this was easy to get to, I’ll be going! Hopefully, it’ll be fun. I’ve never been to this one before 🙂

I’ll be posting pictures, tweets, igs, and etc. while I’m at the conventions themselves so be on the lookout for those, I suppose. I wanted to go to other conventions too, but sadly, I just don’t have all the time or money in the world. I hope I can go to them next year in 2016 though!

  1. Calgary Expo This popped into my head and I thought “why not”. I’ve never been to Canada and the expo seems fun 😀 Will try next year.
  2. Fantasy Con I wanted to go to this one so bad this year, but I’lll just have to try for it next year.
  3. SD Comic Con I tried SOOOO FREAKIN’ HARD to get tickets to this!!! I actually had four different tickets or numbers or whatever to try to get into the online waiting room for the tickets, but alas, no luck!!! I was depressed for quite a bit….but I’m hoping my Europe trip will make up for it 😀
  4. NY Comic Con I had been going to this convention every year, but unfortunately, this year, I can’t, lol. It was New York vs Europe and I chose Europe hahaha. But this is a great con to go to.
  5. Otakon This was my first convention EVER (2008)! So I have some good memories. Unfortunately, the hotel cost just wasn’t worth it this year.
  6. CTN Animation Expo I love this expo. I might actually try to make it since it’s at the end of the year and I might have enough money by then XD

Other cons that I might also think about for future attendance: VidCon and WonderCon.
