Merlin and Star Trek

[spacemonkeyluvn]

So, does anybody like Arthur/Merlin and/or needs some cheering up? I just watched this video and I can't stop smiling :D

The Merlin fandom is such a fun place to be right now. Everyone is writing such great stories and creating fun vids. Of course, it's only been 4 episodes and everything is still very new. I love it <3

PS I know everyone and their mother already knows about them, but I'm posting the pictures from the new Star Trek movie too.

I have not seen the movie, unfortunately. But I imagine it's a bit different.

I do know that the new Merlin series is more like Smallville in that it has Merlin and Arthur around the same age and meeting for the first time. Merlin has just come to Camelot and gets told that he and Arthur are two halves of the same coin and that their destiny lies together ^_^

LOL, wow! I don't know how I feel about that, knowing some of the legend. A Smallville-esque Arthurian re-telling. Hm. It sounds like a fantasy fangirl's dream, though. XD

The movie was very 90's! Sam Neil was Merlin, Helena Bonham Carter was Morgaine, Isabella Rossalini was Merlin's girlfriend (for real) and so on. I got a big kick out of it at the time. But then, I kind of had a thing for Sam Neil back in the day, after Jurassic Park. ^^;

Yeah, you definitely have to take the show with a grain of salt. It's cheesy fun though. And Arthur and Merlin are damn adorable together <3

I might have to check that out then. I've heard of it, but just never got around to it I guess. And who doesn't love some Sam Neil? Or some Helena Bonham Carter for that matter.

... Now I want to watch Jurassic Park =D

XD That's great. I'm intrigued.

The book was good too! Did you ever read it? Jurassic Park, that is.

And it's only been 4 episodes, so it wouldn't be too hard to catch up if you wanted to start watching it 'live.' But yes, I recommend it <3

I think I read Jurassic Park back in high school, or maybe even before that. I remember I thought it was a great book though. I liked The Lost World too, but I liked the first one better.

If you haven't gotten too sick of me talking about Merlin yet, I just wanted to let you know that there's a sort of introductory post to the show over here (http://community.livejournal.com/volehole/8031.html) ^_^
