Quick post about new series!
Sep. 15th, 2010 04:16 pmI was browsing at Gawker, and one of the post was discussing a new series by the guys that brought us 'Mad men' about Louis XIV, entitled 'Versailles'. John Hamm, aka Don Draper would be taking the title role.
Now I don't know what to think about this to be honest. I love the time period which is why I eventually set my stories there. I would like to see more fiction and series set in the time period. I'm not sure if I would enjoy it though. What you think? Who do you think should be cast. I hope they are going to tackle the whole of his reign from the beginning but I'm not so sure.
I'm still waiting impatiently for 'The Borgias', which if they do it right should be amazing. I have already talked of my feelings about the last season of 'The Tudors' and the Grad- A hash they made of that. I have such high hopes and I don't want to be disappointed.
I'm going to have to go to work soon , but we shall discuss at length once I get back.
Incidentally, before I leave I have to say that I was on the search for King Kong fic based on the film by Peter Jackson, but it was in very short supply. Has anyone heard of any or got any recs? I just want to try something new. I must try and watch the rest of 'Tom Jones' tonight after work and perhaps I might re read 'Captain's Surrender' by Alex Beecroft. I really loved it so I should do a proper review at some point.
Starting to put up bits of my Eastern Promises/ Generation Kill crossover at AO3 as well. Here's some links if you're interested.
