“Human beings have always been the same – some clever, some stupid – there’s always a Blackadder and there’s always a Baldrick.”
A Blackadder fanvid! Something the internet has been sorely missing. By thedothatgirl.
Edit to add: Does anyone else watch the news for signs of this generation’s Blackadder?
What about aliens? What about you and me?
I love videos like this because I can play “how many scenes do you recognize?” Has one of my small favorite scenes of Uhura getting her hands dirty, doing some mechanics. Which scene is your favorite?

Sailor Moon Sacrifice, Episode 1 Is Out
Early Christmas gift for Sailor Moon fans. I’m impressed by the amount of effort that went into making this entirely new episode. Hoping for more.
One flaw, some of the audio is low quality. The YouTube page has a transcript if you need it.

Some Illumination on the Live Action Pokemon Trailer: It’s Called Apokelypse!
There are some days I’m so glad I went online.
More info at Shogun Gamer, plus a gallery with a some great images:
Sadly it seems like the trailer is all we will get. I would have loved to see more.
A Study in Time
By di_br.
Startlingly, despite the width and breadth of both Holmes and Who non-canonical works, not one crossover seams to exist. An idea whose time has perhaps come?
BBC 2010 Sherlock vs. The Great Mouse Detective
If it came down to a fight, I think Basil would win. It’s a good thing they are on the same side.

Many Fanvids in This Post
This video wins for reminding me that Torchwood had some moments that I actually enjoyed. All These Things That I’ve Done is one of my favorite songs and this video does a great job of juxtaposing some of Torchwood’s more meaningful themes with it.
I’m really posting this because I can’t decide which Sapphire & Steel video to post. The one set to Carmalldansen? The creepy one? The humorous overview, introduced by Tom Baker, confirming, yes, you weren’t supposed to know what the hell they were fighting against? The one set to a song from seramyu (the Sailor Moon musicals – oh yes, believe it!)? Of course such a strange show generated such strange fanworks. You see, it’s so impossible!
Edit: Sorry, looks like the video player’s not showing up in the RSS feed. Gonna have to click through if you want to watch it!
Artemis 81
Has anyone seen this movie?
The footage in this vid is from Artemis 81 and is the only footage of this movie I’ve been able to find online. For a “cult movie” (as the BBC DVD release claims) this one falls on the forgotten end of the spectrum. (And I should note the music is not from the movie. I’m not even sure the movie had any background music.)
I watched this movie as a teen and remember being puzzled and somewhat haunted for days. Today I tried to rewatch it. I’m still not sure if it’s still over my head, too heavy handed with its symbolism, or just plain bad. I think it’s a bit of all three. Oddly, I find that when I was watching it as a teen I probably could have learned something from the main character. Ah well, better late than never.
Anyhow, this is one to watch, at least for the surreal experience. Then please come and explain it to me.
(And if you can find the connection between this and the Neverwhere post from a few days ago, I’ll give you a gold star or something.)
Hitler Finds Out 2009′s Sherlock Holmes Trailer Is Real
“It’s okay. He’ll realize RDJ is the bomb in December.”
Who knew Hitler was a Jeremy Brett fan? Ok, I lied. But this really is the last Holmes related thing for a while!
