Oh, if only...

Things I dreamed about last night that I wish were real:

1. Breaking Bad the musical
2. Jeremy Jordan as Jesse Pinkman in Breaking Bad the musical
3. Me making out with Jeremy Jordan

Note to self: Smash + pizza before bed = strange but wonderful things.

Linkspam:

* Jason Dohring is officially on board for the Veronica Mars movie.

* Pics from Thor 2. They lack Tom Hiddleston, therefore I am unimpressed.

* It remains unconfirmed, but I would love to see J. August Richards on S.H.I.E.L.D.

* Teaser for Marvel's Phase 2. It's about 75% Iron Man 3, but still some really cool-looking stuff in there. Still struggling to care about Ant-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy, but that may be my Avengers bias (i.e., why should I care about these new people? Give me the characters I loved in Phase 1).

* Pics from The Originals spinoff, if you're into that sort of thing.

* Jon Hamm talks about the upcoming season of Mad Men. Highlight: discussion of Don Draper as a high-functioning sociopath.

* John Slattery also has an interview about Mad Men. Plus, check out the season 6 promo photos.

* Finding Nemo is getting a sequel, Finding Dory. Also, what your favorite Pixar movie says about you.

* Matthew Rhys talks about his role on The Americans.

* They're no longer being auctioned off, but you can still watch clips of audition tapes from A-list actors, most of whom didn't get the roles. Some are good, others are hilariously bad.

* I'm rather looking forward to David Tennant in Spies of Warsaw, so here, have an interview. Anyone else planning to watch?

I always enjoy your linkspam.

J. August Richards! I am officially interested in watching S.H.I.E.L.D. now.

The closest they get to ID-ing me from my favorite Pixar film (Wall-E) is "You may just enjoy space and robots and things." Which is only sort of true, actually. I seemed to fit the Brave profile closest (apparently you have to be an outspoken feminist to favor a film with a female lead) but I haven't seen it. Or more than half of the others, for that matter! Brave and the Toy Story sequels are the only ones I particularly want to watch but haven't.

Heh, I find it impossible to choose my favorite Pixar film, so they get a little bit right from each of them: "The thought of taking care of a child terrifies you." "You're living on your own and realizing how big and scary the world is." "You like it when dysfunctional families come together to achieve something spectacular in the end."

I fit the Brave profile really well, too. I should definitely watch that one...

Some very good links, thanks! And I would so watch that musical.

Jeremy Jordan as Jesse Pinkman in Breaking Bad the musical

I personally would kill to find a copy of him as Tony, he seems like the only Tony I've ever seen who could actually have started a gang with Riff.

Ooooh yes, me too.

Yeeees.

Still struggling to care about Ant-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy, but that may be my Avengers bias (i.e., why should I care about these new people? Give me the characters I loved in Phase 1).

Lol I love Guardians of the Galaxy very much so I can't say.

I know nothing about GotG except what I'm hearing and it sounds... weird. Or, as someone on Twitter put it: "Every word I read about "Guardians of the Galaxy" continues to sound like a prank. An expensive, raccoon-filled prank."

Actually, I have since learned from the time I wrote this comment that the movie is going to be based on a reboot of the version I read XD

It's Cosmic Marvel, which is very different from the Earth-based beings. Aliens everywhere, planet-swallowing forces, etc. Except it's not necessarily weirder than the Earth-based comics... There was a lot of ~continuity~ when the team was first formed that they're not going to be able to fit in the film, so I guess I'll just see how it goes.
