National Theatre Live - Coriolanus Review!

In late February a few of the Fruitless Pursuits team caught NT Live and the Donmar Warehouse's live broadcast of Coriolanus starring the likes of Tom Hiddleston and Mark Gatiss. It was fantastic! Follow me under the cut for a review.

Raiding the Avengers Wardrobe

You may remember Luke's post from a while ago about his Black Widow costume collector cards, featuring little snippets of Scarlett Johansson's costumes from Iron Man 2 and The Avengers (probably the bits that touched her butt, but I guess we'll never truly know). I'm sure that you, like me, thought 'Oh, Luke. That's so weird. Why would you want to own something that probably touched ScarJo's butt? Stop being weird Luke. You weirdo'.

As I am a curious beast, I thought I'd have a little look on eBay to see what other costume parts were available (not that I'd buy any of course, because as we've already established, that's WEIRD). It was less than five minutes before I was hitting Buy It Now like a crazy fangirl. A crazy WEIRD fangirl.

I mean, how did I ever live without a card featuring a picture of Jeremy Renner awkwardly grimacing and containing a piece of Hawkeye's uniform? I DON'T KNOW. Sadly, this was the first of many as I quickly spiralled out of control, caught in a memorabilia-buying frenzy. Sigh. Join me after the cut for the rest of my Hall of Shame.

Thank Gif It's Friday

Alright, so I'm pretty sure I've missed all Fridays on all parts of all continents, but in my defence this is really more of a Saturday night GIF anyway. Right, ladies?

Hiddles, you complete me. Er...I mean us. All of us. You complete US.

Loki'd!

In the post-Thor/War Horse/Avengers haze, the ladies of Fruitless Pursuits have developed quite the taste for the dapper English gentleman behind Loki, Tom Hiddleston. Doing my duty as a pop-culture enthusiast meant I OBVIOUSLY had to sift through the 'Tom Hiddleston' tag on Tumblr which is where I found this little gem.

From MTV After Hours (I think), it starts off a little awkward and ends up totally bizarre. A WEIRD dapper English gentleman, perhaps.
