What I hope to see in Season 3 of Sherlock.


Now, what you all may or may not know is that BBC's Sherlock is my absolute favourite T.V. series of all time! After that comes Hogan's Heroes and Little House on the Prairie.
Sherlock introduced me to the character and stories. True, I had watched The Great Mouse Detective years ago and I still do now and then but I never really registered that Basil was SUPPOSE to be Sherlock Holmes! I sort of got the reference but I knew next to nothing about Sherlock Holmes.
Early this year we got the first season of Sherlock out from the library and suffice to say that we were hooked!
I started reading the Sherlock Holmes books starting with 'A Study in Scarlet' then 'The Sign of the Four', 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' 'The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes' and I have almost finished 'The Return of Sherlock Holmes'.
So if it wasn't obvious, I'd say that I am very dedicated to Sherlock Holmes and may take the title of Sherlockian. A rather nice one, too.
Exciting!
The other day I asked Jamie who blogs over at Throughtwoblueyes if she was going to be doing any new Sherlock Holmes posts and I suggested that she might do what she wants to see in Sherlock Season 3. Arda had asked me this a few weeks ago and that thought sprung to mind at that time. I also said that I'd probably do was as well, and so here I am.
Summary for Season 3:
Our multi-award-winning drama Sherlock‬ starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman, returns for an eagerly awaited third series of three, 90-minute films this Christmas.
In episode one of this new series, two years after the devastating effects of The Reichenbach Fall, Dr John Watson has got on with his life. New horizons, romance and a comforting domestic future beckon. But, with London under threat of a huge terrorist attack, Sherlock Holmes is about to rise from the grave with all the theatricality that comes so naturally to him. It’s what his best friend wanted more than anything, but for John Watson it might well be a case of ‘be careful what you wish for’!

So the first question that all Sherlock fans want to know is 'How on earth did Sherlock survive?!' I mean how do you survive a drop from a hospital building and later on you are just watching your best friend pouring out his heart at your grave and then it ends! And apparently Season 3 is going to have an even worse cliff-hanger. Note to self: Read His Last Bow before Season 3.
So, besides the obvious that we all want to see how he did it. What other things do I want to see?
Do you think John is ignoring Sherlock here?
1. What is  John's reaction to Sherlock 'coming back'? Apparently John of the T.V. show is not as forgiving as Watson of the stories. Could prove to be very interesting to see.
2. Okay. Now, something I really want to see is Donavan's and Anderson's reactions to Sherlock coming back. And Lestrade will probably be rubbing it in and saying like' Oh, yeah, I told you so!' It would be awesome if Sherlock just sort of walked into Scotland Yard and Lestrade knew already that he was not a kidnapper or anything like that and Donavan and Anderson are trying to arrest him and Lestrade walks in and says something along the lines of 'he didn't do any of that.'
Is it just me or does Mary look a little loopy?
3. John Watson getting married to Mary Morstan. Now, this should prove to be very interesting! John getting married, and with a moustache, too! I am going to assume that they get married in episode two, The Sign of Three. I don't know how they are going to meet maybe because Mary came to get Sherlock's help like she does in the book, or maybe Mary and John meet each other before Sherlock comes back and suddenly she needs both of their help? I have no idea but I hope that Sherlock is the best man.
4. Seeing some more of Molly. Molly is by far one of my favourite characters. And it looks quite obvious that she helped Sherlock fake his death. Sherlock and Molly are supposed to be doing some more stuff together (non-romantic however much all of us who ship Sherlock and Molly want otherwise) and also it has been said that she will tell Sherlock off. Goody! That will not be something to miss at all.
5. Picking up on all the references from the novels. After having read the first two novels/stories and the Adventures and Memoirs I picked up on a few of them, and also my Sherlock Files actually tells you where all the references are from.
6. Basically enjoying another season of Sherlock and being part of the waiting, from the start for the fourth season instead of discovering it about ten months before it is released, which is what happened to me last time.

Oh, and just wondering, but has anyone seen Sherlock's new scarf?
l-to-r. S 1. S2. S3. Arda suggested that it might be a very bright blue because he is getting a bit happier. That sound like a nice idea! :)

And the new trailer which I have not seen yet. Hopefully will today though. :)
So, there you have it! That is what I want to see in Sherlock Season 3 and I can't wait.
Now, all to do is find somewhere on the internet to watch it from, as we don't have T.V. connection and find out the release for Season 3 in Australia.

God Bless

I'm excited!!!

Me and Rogan are very excited for 'Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters' which is being released at the movies in September. I'm so excited!! I hope it is better than te first one like, from book to movie, type thing. :) And Tyson's in it! Tyson is soooooo cute! Gosh, I sound like Aphrodite talking to Percy in TTC. :)


This is the best trailer out of all of them!


"You weren't able to talk sense into him?"
Well, we kind of tried to kill each other in a duel to the death."
I see. You tried the diplomatic approach.” 
― Rick RiordanThe Sea of Monsters

“There was Tyson moving into the Poseidon cabin, giggling to himself every fifteen seconds and saying, "Percy is my brother?" like he'd just won the lottery.

Aw, Tyson," I'd say. "It's not that simple.” 
― Rick RiordanThe Sea of Monsters


“Weapons are allowed. Dirty tricks are expected. But try not to kill anybody!” Tantalus smiled at us like we were all naughty children. “Any killing will result in harsh punishment. No s’mores at the campfire for a week! Now ready your chariots!” 
― Rick RiordanThe Sea of Monsters

“Tyson dropped the two warriors he was about to tie into a knot and jogged after us. He jumped on the centaur's back.
'Dude!' the centaur groaned, almost buckling under Tyson's weight. 'Do the words "low-carb diet" mean anything to you?” 
― Rick RiordanThe Sea of Monsters


I AM VERY EXCITED!!! I'm up to book three in the five books, oh yeah and I'm going to go see 'Man of Steel' tomorrow with my two older sisters. We are having a 'sisters day out' and I'm hoping we'll have a lot of fun.

God Bless

Does that mean they are going to ruin it?


You know how you read this really good series of books and then you see what the summary on the back cover is and you think 'Please tell me they don't ruin it if they ruin it I will be so upset!' That was kind of my reaction when I saw this:

Okay, so this is the 12th and LAST book in the Ranger's Apprentice series. If you haven't read them then you're life is not complete. :P I've loved these books since like, I started to read and now they sound like they might completely tear the whole series and the things I love about it, apart. So traedgy strikes Will, does it? Halt's alive so it could only be Alyss, or maybe Horace or Evanlyn got knocked off, I hope it has Gilan in it. There was never enough Gilan in them.
This is from the 12th book. What have you been doing, Will?
And Halt is awesome, too. 
But let's look on the bright side, it's only about three months and then we'll find out, and its got Halt in it; Halt is hysterical and wise and awesome. But if they make it like at the end of Inheritance by Christopher Paolini.....well you get the idea.



God Bless

In a few days.........

 In a few days or to be more precise in 8 days INHERITANCE by Christopher Paolini will be released. I am super excited about this!! I have been waiting since September 2008 for this last book of the inheritance cycle.
The back cover was realeased a while back and this is what it said:
Not so very long ago, Eragon—Shadeslayer, Dragon Rider—was nothing more than a poor farm boy, and his dragon, Saphira, only a blue stone in the forest. Now the fate of an entire civilization rests on their shoulders.

Long months of training and battle have brought victories and hope, but they have also brought heartbreaking loss. And still, the real battle lies ahead: they must confront Galbatorix. When they do, they will have to be strong enough to defeat him. And if they cannot, no one can. There will be no second chances.

The Rider and his dragon have come further than anyone dared to hope. But can they topple the evil king and restore justice to Alagaësia? And if so, at what cost?

This is the much-anticipated, astonishing conclusion to the worldwide bestselling Inheritance cycle.

There are so many questions to be answered such as -and in my case-who will kill Galbatorix?
List of questions:
1# Who kills Galbatorix?
2# Who is the next dragon rider?
3# What the heck, is the rock of Kuthian?
4# What is the vault of souls?
5# What is Eragon's true name?
6# What happens to Murtagh, does he get killed? Does he become a goody again?
7# Who are the two people who Angela casts the dragon bones for in Brisingr?
8# What becomes of Nasuada? Does she die?
9# What characters die?
10# Why is the green dragon's eyes a different colour than its scales unlike Saphira, Thorn and Glaedr?
11# Will Arya and Eragon end up together?
12# Who is the man on the shore which waves farwell in Eragon's dream in Eragon?
13# Will Katrina have her baby?
14# Will Roran fulfill his debt with Birgit?
15# Will Elva be a goody any more? Will she cause trouble for the Varden?

So yeah, those are some of the questions which are going on in my head. And with only a few days to go it is time (for me at leats) to start biting my nails in anticapation!!! And what an annoying thing too. They were just starting to get long. :(
I need to listen to the rest of the Brisingr audio-book before next wendsday which actually has rather long chapters because it isn't abridged and the book of Brisingr is about 700-800 pages long.
The good thing about inheritance is that it is actually longer than any of the other books before it!!! The horrible thing is that the book will be very hard to read in bed because you'll have to sit up in your bed to read it! Another good thing is that there will be TONS more of Murtagh!!!!!!!!!!!! :D I have a huge crush on Murtagh! :D LOVE LOVE LOVE Murtagh!!!!!!!!! :D :D Yep a huge Murtagh fan.
One of my favorite things about Brisingr was how you got to see a lot of Eragon's and Saphira's relationship. THat has gotta be one of my favorite things and that is why two of my favorite chapters (there's a lot of those) are "Amid the restless crowd" and "Reunion" because thats where you actually see how much Saphira and Eragon care and love each other. I hope for more of this sort of thing with Saphira and Eragon because I just love it!!! :) Wouldn't it be cool if Eragon, Murtagh and the new rider all fight Galbatorix together? Now that is something which would be cool and like so Awesome!! :D
Who do you think will be the new rider? I think that it is probably Arya or one of the women in Brisingr who Angela casts the bones for. Do you think that maybe Islanzadi die off and Arya become queen of the elves?
One of the ideas my Mum came up with with Murtagh is that he might end up with Nasuada. He's rather impressed with her and that sort of stuff but will there be more of Murtagh and his dealings with Nasuada or not?
Random fact for you:
The Japanese translation of Brisingr was so large that the publisher split it into two volumes. Since the Japanese did not want the same cover on two volumes, they commissioned Palencar to paint one of the Lethrblaka for the second volume. The Lethrblaka are the Ra'zac's steeds and parents.
Japenese cover of Brisingr volume one.
Paolini made drawings based on the book for the deluxe edition of Brisingr, including one with Eragon's arm and hand holding the sword he receives in the book. The sword, named Brisingr, has flames around its blade.
In 2008 I finished Brisingr in one whole week! Now, that was without doing anything much besides and I hope that now three years later I will be able to read it much faster!
I could go on and on with these books and especially how I hate waiting but I won't and I hope that if you read the books like I do we won't be disappointed. :)
8 more days!!!!
God Bless
