It Goes Ding When There's Stuff

Neil Gaiman Discusses His Contribution To Doctor Who’s TARDIS & Its Dislike Of Clara

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:44 pm, May 9th, 2013

BBC America invited The Mary Sue on a very special press conference call with Neil Gaiman in advance of his Doctor Who episode this weekend. “Nightmare in Silver” is the prolific author’s return to the show as well as the return of the Cybermen. While we were thrilled to hear him speak about his new ideas and the experience writing the episode (it’s a fun one!), we were very curious to know what his thoughts were on Clara’s seemingly troubled relationship with the TARDIS.

Thank you, Kirsty Delwig, for showing us the beautiful truth about the TARDIS console, through the beautiful medium of cosplay.

Things We Saw Today: Beast’s New X-Men: Days Of Future Past Look

by Jill Pantozzi | 5:30 pm, April 7th, 2013

For the most part, I loved X-Men: First Class but one thing I hated was how absolutely terrible Beast looked. Thanks to a tweet by Bryan Singer, it looks like Nicholas Hoult will be getting an updated look in X-Men: Days of Future Past. (via Blastr)

Things We Saw Today: Benedict Cumberbatch Stares Into Your Soul In New Star Trek Into Darkness Promo Pic

by Rebecca Pahle | 5:00 pm, March 20th, 2013

Listen, Star Trek Into Darkness. I don’t need all of your promo stills to be epic and lens flare-y. But this legitimately looks like Benedict Cumberbatch glaring at a photographer who snapped him coming out of a store that sells slightly weird coats. You can do better. (I kid, I kid. I love weird promo pics, even ones that are just weird-boring. The reigning champ for weird publicity photos is still this one from The Eagle, if you’re curious.) Visit The Daily Blam for a second pic of Kirk and Spock looking equally srs bsns.

Things We Saw Today: The Hobbit, With Cats

As Jill pointed out, the cat version of Bilbo looks an awful lot like Crookshanks from Harry Potter. Anyway, everyone knows Martin Freeman is actually a hedgehog. (By Andrea Femerstrand, via Geek-Art)

Disney’s Belle Will Never Leave Doctor Who’s TARDIS

by Jill Pantozzi | 12:10 pm, March 7th, 2013

Yesterday we were thrilled to find Disney’s Mulan happening upon the TARDIS from Doctor Who. Thanks to a reader we now get to look at this, Karen Hallion’s alternate version with Beauty and the Beast’s Belle as the focus of the Doctor’s attention. Just a few things I feel compelled to say: Belle would never leave a book behind, my only thought is she dropped this one when the Doctor told her about his library. Second, the only reason she’d ever leave the TARDIS is if the Doctor took her to The Library. Pre-”Silence in the Library” of course. It’s for sale as a t-shirt at Threadless if you’re interested or check out Khallion on Etsy to see a few other Disney women being curious about the TARDIS.

Are you following The Mary Sue on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Pinterest, & Google +?

This is a little project my teenage daughter and I dreamed up a while back. I decided to surprise her with it as a Birthday present. She’s delighted to say the least. Features all the coolness of 100 bow-ties and has an integrated LED lantern on top!

Dad of the year, methinks. Hit the jump for a video of the lantern in action.
