GUNF August!

Someone posted a few pictures of August Diehl from the Salt premiere in Berlin, over at
augustdiehl . For those of you who don't watch the community, I just HAD to share this picture ... because August deserves more love. Now I almost want to watch the movie ... except that I really, really don't like Angelina Jolie. Maybe I should just wait a bit and watch August's scene on youtube or so? Apparently he only has a tiny part anyway.

I saw this and thought ... DIETERCHEN!!!!! Well, Dieterchen after Landa stole his pomade and made him smile by giving him a Bösendorfer Grand Imperial.

Definitely one of the best "bitch please"-faces out there.

And possibly my favourite August pic ever:

*runs off to writepossibly part three of La musica delle parole something that might one day become some Landa/Hellstrom-fic that is worth posting*
Oh, right, I need to say one more thing before I go: watch Le concert. Everyone. You know, that French-Russian movie with Mélanie Laurent. Yes, it's slightly cheesy, but it's more than anything else gorgeous, funny, and heart-warming. And I'm usually not into that kind of movie. Not to mention the beautiful music. I think this movie finally made me love violin as much as I ought to. *hunts down a few violin concertos and sonatas*
Hellstrom approves.So does Heydrich.

Seriously, I replied to your comment before viewing the link, that's why no squee then. But here you go: SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
I think these are now officially part of my absolute favorite photos of Mark.
Ah, writing sex. In slash I like it as raw as possible, in het I like it a little more romantic, although I'm not at all adverse to raw het sex. In fact, the raw het fics I like are usually filled with awkward grammar and syntax errors and loads of dirty language (they're usually written by non-native English speakers) and I find the roughness to the writing has a certain amount of charm. It reminds me of the gay collections of the Straight to Hell chapbooks, which are purportedly based on actual experiences.
Yes, I find it difficult, too, to read fanfic about characters I don't even know--unless they're played by a pairing of actors who interest me and written by a writer whose work I enjoy. Like your Blackwood/Coward fics. I haven't even seen the movie yet, but I have read your fics. Now is that silly of me?
oO indeed re the lifesize Heydrich doll story. From what I remember of it, however, it was rather decently written. ;-D

Oh God, grammar and syntax errors in fic are bad enough ... but in porn? Big turn-off. People who are too stupid to get the difference between "its" and "it's" should not write porn. It's doesn't get much unsexier.
I never think it's silly to enjoy fic. ;) And I never think it's silly when people enjoy my fics. I don't know, characters played by actors I love might actually get me interested, yes, but generally I have trouble with fics about characters I don't know. Fanfic usually presupposes some knowledge about the characters, their shared background etc. While that's not a big problem for side characters like Blackwood/Coward, or for a pairing like Landa/Hellstrom with no common canon background, it's a real problem with two characters who have dozens of scenes together. Fics with summaries like "this happens right after the scene in episode X" ... are just not fun to read when you haven't seen the scene. ;)
I repeat: I don't think I want to know. ;)

I agree with you about two regular characters in a fandom. I like Hugh Laurie and the character of House, but I almost never watch the show so it makes no sense for me to read fanfic about it. On the other hand, I love Zoi No Miko's slash so much that I've read her Inception fics even though I haven't seen the film yet! Although it certainly helps that I know who's in it.
I see you brought back one of my favorite of your Heydi icons! That one is so you I was sorry to see it disappear for a while.

Date: 2010-09-07 12:51 pm (UTC)Funny, because I've actually seen Inception and still don't want to read fic about it. Partly because most of the fandom ships a pairing I find completely and utterly dull (Eames/Arthur), partly because even for the pairing I'd find interesting (Cobb/Arthur) I'm not sure what kind of fic I'd want to read. Certainly not straightforward porn, but I don't know what else I'd want. It's not a movie that makes me want fic, it's weird.
Heidi, Heidi, deine Welt sind die Berge ... oh fuck, that mental image gives me a headache.
I love the icon, but I prefer to be careful about who I use it with. Don't want to get bitched at by idiots who will think I'm an evil Nazi.

I understand about that particular Heydi icon. It just so perfectly fits you, but is probably much better kept for only those of us who know you well. ;-) That's probably my second-favorite photo of him, and I like that you managed to get two icons out of it - especially the loooong-fingered handkink one. ^^

What's not to love about his hands? :D I'm glad there are a few really beautiful pics of him, considering that many other pics are not exactly flattering.

Date: 2010-09-16 08:18 am (UTC)Not to worry. Nariel called me to task for that one and I'm now referring to him as "Reini" like the rest of you. Not as funny & inventive, but less likely to cause brain lesions with accompanying convulsions in my friends.
I'm convinced that this photo is one of the reasons my Hey- Reini doll comes with two pair of hands, the utilitarian pair with the clenched fists and the pair with nice, long, straight fingers. Somehow 3R knew and understood the handkink aspect. ;-)

Date: 2010-09-22 02:49 pm (UTC)How could anyone look at Reini and NOT understand the handkink? ^^
no subject
Date: 2010-09-23 12:42 am (UTC)Correct, as always. The handkink is just so key to his appeal. Long fingers, long--you know what I mean. But even if the association weren't true, the fingers alone are too magnificent and I'm sure were more than capable. ;-)
