I'm gonna rip this town apart until it rains blood.

++ Nina Dobrev is officially leaving The Vampire Diaries. While I'm incredibly happy that she's finally free and off to do greater things for herself and her career, it's interesting to me that the show is going to continue on without her. Not that she was the "be all, end all" aspect, but she basically has been the main character of the show since the beginning; she has been an integral part of the plot and almost everything centers around her relationships with all the other characters in some form or another. Although while I haven't seen anything beyond the first two seasons, I've heard that in the most recent one Elena has been more or less pushed to the background while Caroline has been taking the spotlight, leading to much speculation because of it, and it was confirmed in her statement that she wanted Elena's journey to end at some point. It does make me wonder how the show will do after her departure, whether it'll be cancelled shortly thereafter or become a cockroach like the other longer lasting CW shows, never dying until it is eventually run into the ground by TPTB.

++ Apparently there's a movie deal for the indie horror game, Five Nights At Freddy's. I haven't played it myself but I've watched others online do it (most notably Markiplier's). I'm curious on how it's gonna work for a game like this to be translated onto the big screen. There is plenty of potential with the already built-in lore of the story to explore and expand on, so it could be intriguing on what they plan on doing with it.

++ The blonde wig Emilia Clarke wears for her Vogue UK photoshoot looks a bit more natural than the one she wears on the show in the later seasons. Here just looks like a modern AU Dany. So gorgeous. ♥

++ Hearing all the reports from Hobbitcon that happened almost makes me want to attend conventions again, from the interactions with the actors to the fun shenanigans that occurred. But most importantly is the news that the extended edition of The Battle of the Five Armies will hopefully feature 21 additional scenes. I'm hoping that this is true because there was also confirmation from the actors who were there that indeed, so much was filmed especially of the dwarves, but PJ was forced by the studios to edit a lot of things from the theatrical cut, which explains the chopped up feeling in certain places. Which means will be getting so much more content in the extended. I mean I expected as much, but still. Basically, MORE MIDDLE-EARTH YAY. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

God, the whole love triangle thing was such a bore and unnecessary. I mean it's CW and that's their schtick for everything in their programming, but still. Why does everything in media continue thinking that that's a suitable storyline? Ugh. Either way, I'm hoping that Elena will not be with anyone but herself in her last episode. She deserves much better than any man, tbh. I'm also wondering whether she'll depart as a vampire or being cured as a human again, or if they'll just off her like they did Katherine (still bitter about that).

And yeah, the CW is so polarizing in how they deal with their shows. It's the nature and politics of the business I know, but still.

Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. I hope she doesn't end up with anyone. I kind of think she should take the cure and become human again. Hopefully, they won't off her.

I know.

I suspect that Elena will leave as human again, they did just introduce Bonnie giving Damon the cure for Elena, so it seems to make sense that Elena will take it. Although Nina has also talked about Elena's ending not being what we're expecting, so who knows...

I doubt they will kill her, it would give Damon way too much grief and moping in the 7th season if she was killed off
