That amazing moment…

… when your friends finally get you!

At first, when I talked about Tom Hiddleston, everyone was looking at me weirdly “What?! This guy?! Are you serious?!”. I kept spamming people with photos: The real good ones showing his range of different facets.

Reaction now: I think he’s cute! I like him! Can you keep sending me photos? Do you have films with him?

So… I win! Tom wins! More recruits for the army!

OMG! Tom, your hands … They are fuckin’ sexy,Tom! 

I LOVE the picture in the top row in the second column… This is my favourite Tom Hiddleston hand porn!

“Playing, watching or reading Shakespeare is like staring at the ocean - it makes you feel calmer, wiser, at peace”. - Tom Hiddleston”

How … HOW can he say this? I mean, he’s right! So right! I love Shakespeare (I don’t play, but watch and read though)… And I really - no kidding - love Shakespeare when I’m distressed! It grounds me, calms me. It’s like meditation for geeks! Though I prefer the comedies for this purpose. Macbeth is not as relaxing as A Comedy of Errors, maybe because my courses a university focused on the tragedies, so I can’t just enjoy them but tend to analyse them.

So, Mr. Hiddleston, can we please have that Single Malt together one day? I’ll even get a really special one, like a Bowmore 25 years or something like that for the special occasion!

Hiddlesphile/Hiddlestonphile

I really like Tom Hiddleston (who doesn’t these days?), but I don’t like the word “fan” too much. It’s always associated with screaming hordes of fans aged 12 to 14 and with fanatism. Thus being a fan reminds people of fanatics and fanatics have a negative connotation. But for me it’s a positive and inspiring thing: it enriches my life and inspires me to to weird and creative things. In addition I’m more than twice that certain age and I don’t like to think of me as a fanatic. The OED and @HiddlesTigress1 gave me some synonyms but I wasn’t happy with either of them. 
As I love making up my own words, I finally came up with this solution: a Hiddlesphile. Actually it should be Hiddlestonphile, but it doesn’t roll off the tongue that well. One could even go as far as to include the T. W. and make it Twhiddlesphile :).

Tom’s song of the day

Tom Hiddleston's song of the day

A great band! I’m so happy he had several of their songs among his songs of the day. Otherwise I would never have fallen in love their music - and I do not just like the songs because he likes them but because it’s just fantastic music! Now it is concstantly playing in my homeoffice (in addition to some other post rock).

Tom interview in which he discusses Agent Culson’s death and the hope for Loki’s redemption.

6PM

While I think, he should never ever go into mixing cocktails (Guiness and Absinthe? Seriously, Tom?), I just stumbled over the fact that he likes Single Malt… this is… no effing way, no no no no no just NO!
I liked that he likes Guinness, but well, surprise… who ever doesn’t like Guinness?! But Whisky is a horse of a different colour! I think I’ll trade that tea I wanted to have with him for a nice evening drinking a very good, old Single Malt - or two or three!

I just realised I’d really love to have him as a friend! I’ve only got one (!) friend who likes to drink Single Malt with me and he is my dad’s age! My other friends don’t get me and stick to their beer and stuff. Therefore I almost never get to have a nice Single Malt in good company! Duh!

It’s really hard by know to remember that there still is no such thing as a perfect human being! We all have flaws! I really have to imagine some things I don’t like about him. Something that just isn’t great about him! So, he said he doesn’t play video games! Not perfect. I love them! But: He said he doesn’t because he’d not do anything else anymore… so… not so not perfect, because it’s perfectly reasonable *sigh*.

*goes looking for not-perfect traits in Mr. Hiddleston* (Guess I might not be back for a while… Might turn out to be like the quest for the Holy Grail!)

Got to be kidding me! - True story, I don’t make things up! Ever!

I just decided to watch “Real Steel” today because yesterday I didn’t because of Germany’s Next Topnonsense erm model…

So I want to watch Real Steel… I got the Blu Ray recently, so it’s the first time I watch it. And I want to watch it because there ARE actually other great and hot actors like Hugh Jackman! Phira puts the BR into her PS3, the BR starts with the obligatory trailers - and I always watch them when I first insert a new disc because I might find something intersting…

The trailer show starts. And remember I’m trying (!) to run away from Tom Hiddleston here! So first trailer starts and I’m like “WTF? Seriously?” War Horse! Hello Mr. Hiddleston! Well ok, he’s only to be seen briefly, so it’s still OK.
But THEN the second damn trailer: The Avengers! Loki and his hot, evil smile!
Thus I honestly feel Loki’d here! Because even if I deliberately want to get away from him and watch non-Tom films he keeps following me! Oh dear, Mr. Hiddleston, stop stalking me ;).
Or… well… not… *shakes her head in defeat*

Loki: How desperate are you? That you call on such lost creatures to defend you?

Fury: How desperate am I? You threaten my world with war, you steal a force you can’t hope to control, you talk about peace, and you kill ’cause it’s fun. You have made me very desperate. You might not be glad that you did.

Loki: Ooh, it burns you to have come so close. To have the Tesseract, to have power. Unlimited power. And for what? A warm light for all mankind to share? And then to be reminded what real power is.

Some articles are just… made to make people talk about it

I’m talking about this:
http://moviepilot.com/movies/293035-the-avengers-2/stories/400967-why-superheroes-are-just-as-ridiculous-as-sparkly-vampires?utm_campaign

But hell, I still want to say some things (Quotes from the article are in italics):

“So nerds, you think you’re so cool with your little Batman figurines and Thor bobble-heads.”
- Since when do nerds think they’re cool at all? And actually, I feel more like a geek than a nerd. Because: there is a difference! Don’t know it? You can google it (ugh, did I really quote Sparky-Edward here?).

Now before you go reaching for your Hawkeye bow, think about how many girls are into superheroes and how many guys are into Twilight. Notice how it tends to split along gender lines?
Sexism anyone?

Date night contributed a good chunk, and we all know that date night is often a compromise that boils down to: ‘Fine, I’ll go see your stupid [insert explosions, aliens, robots], but next week we’re going to watch [insert romcom/period drama]!’

Funny, actually I had to persuade to-be-boyfriend to go see The Avengers twice, thrice, four, even five times. He wanted to see Snowwhite, I wanted to see Avengers again: compromise: this week Avengers, next week Snowwhite. I win, I get my movie first :D (but still have to suffer through Kirsten-one-face-Stewart… thoug I will get to see Chris Hems.. so it’s still a win if I don’t look at her face too closely).

Traditionally, superheroes and action films are boy territory.
Since when are we back to middle ages? Ever heard of emancipation? We can all do housework now, men and women! And women can be firefighters! Wow. I’ve even heard of men staying at home taking care of the kids while the wife works… Weiiiiiiiird world, right? *points at some buckets of irony sitting behind the words*

It’s the ultimate cliché: if you want to draw a female audience, throw in a love story. Better yet, a love triangle! Maybe some vampires… See where I’m going here?
I really had to look down my body now to check if I really am a women! Phew, yes, boobies still there! I’m feeling like this article is putting me into a gender crisis!

After John Carter bombed at the box office, one of the reasons cited for Disney’s unfortunate $100-million loss was that — unlike Avatar, for example — they completely ignored the love story.Sorry, but I LOVE John Carter. It was my movie of the year before I saw The Avengers! Huh, women loving films without any real lovestory?! Am I really female? Phew, yes, boobies still there! And wait, again it was ME who wanted to see the movie. I didn’t just tag along…

Little girls have their pick between play kitchen sets, baby strollers and Barbies. Little boys get G.I. Joes and toy guns. It’s the same idea.
Funny I got to play with whatever toy I wanted when I was little. LEGOs and Barbies inhabited my room, I guess now we know the reason for my crisis… I just wasn’t brouht up right. My mom should’ve insisted on getting me all pink stuff… (Please notice the irony dropping from every single letter here.)

And though admiring Tom Hiddleston: I did NOnot T got to see The Avengers over and over again because of him (sorry, Mr. Hiddleston ;) ). I want to see it every damn week because it’s a damn great movie! I love all the actor’s doing a great job! I love Joss Whedon’s work! I love the humor, the oneliners, the banter between the characters! I love that there is no very deep plot but just a great deal of fantastic entertainment that lets me get away from my everyday life! And I love Downey Jr. as Tony Stark! And now I even love Hulk because Ruffalo made him likeable to me. Yes, I love Tom’s Loki but it’s the whole package that wants me to see this movie like every single day of my upcoming summerholidays! I wish I’d have the BR by then :(.
And I LOVE that there is actually no lovestory - or worse: a love-triangle!

Btw. I hate the Twilight movies! Bad acting, bad effects! I just can’t stand it! I don’t care about bad influence or messages in books and films though. I’ve had a lot of crap and “bad influence” literature / films in my life and still turned out to be a decent person! But life’s just too short to watch films with bad actors / bad soundtracks / bad plots / bad effects. And I really do care about acting and, wow, effects… though effects are a male thing again… women can’t tell the difference anyway, right? (Notice another load of irony dripping down the letters here.)

And no, I’m not having my panties in a twist, I’m not mad or annoyed or anything… Writing stuff like this is actually FUN to me. I ENJOY this. I am a Woman of Words and such articles give me a lot of opportunities to produce a lot of words! So, this makes me actually happy!
