Children of Earth trailer + Post Exit Wounds fic recs

[51stcenturyfox]

Before the trailer was released, I went through my favorite things set after Exit Wounds and re-read them. If you have any faves to share, please pop 'em in the comments? I love stories set in this time period.

Plus, here's the trailer, too. Like you haven't seen it already. Mmm. Mankissin'! It sucked trying to pause the video to take that still because the next shot? Burned guy. Ew.

Thoughts? You know, I really want to mix the footage with the Never Miss A Beat Kaiser Chiefs video.

Jack and Gwen do not approve of that:

Lovely, lovely prose.

I'm trying to get a good look of who is getting covered with the brown liquid stuff a couple shots after the burned guy. Whether it's new character or someone we know. Cause if that's the naked!Jack shot we've been hearing about, I'll be disappointed. Unless he's naked for quite some time before that.

And the random shot of Jack wearing the t-shirt and the khakis, I was like "Who is that guy in the t-shirt? It's... it's Jack." It looks like they forgot to put him in costume. It's Rhys, Gwen, Ianto and... John Barrowman.

I'm not sure... it's too fast.

Hopefully some vidding pro will slow the whole thing down to a crawl for analysis.

Expected naked!Jack. Do not disappoint us, Euros Lyn!

LOL on the John Barrowman point. That's odd, isn't it?

[lionessvalenti.livejournal.com]

Maybe... he lost his clothes (I don't know how that would happen, but this is Jack) and he's borrowing the t-shirt and khakis? If I had to measure a guess at who's clothes they were, they look like Rhys' clothes, but I don't think they're the same size. At all. Though we've seen Ianto's casual clothes once and probably not enough to judge what his casual wardrobe is like so maybe they're his (I say this just because I'd guess them to be closer in size, not for any Jack/Ianto-y reasons).

I'm just trying to think up a good reason for him wearing random clothes that could have been product of his nudity.

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

Ianto is extra sexy with that scratch on his face...

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Yes, well, t-shirts. And I think every man probably has a pair of khakis in the closet. Maybe they dodged the milling zombie kids and went to The Gap.

Don't know what this is from, but me likey:

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Yeah!

That was a hot smooch too. What'd they give us, one second of that? Less?

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

Less. It was like a split second. And, being a dolt and forgetting you had a shot of it above the video, I had to pause it to make sure it was Ianto...lol

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

I just lost all possibility of coherent thought...

[lionessvalenti.livejournal.com]

I can see it now...

Ianto: Jack, this nudity just won't do.
Gwen: I don't know, I kinda-
Rhys: *coughs loudly*
Gwen: Right, no, clothes.
Jack: *sighs* Well, then I guess this means it's time to go to the Gap.

And that's episode three. They might even have a trying-on-clothes montage.

Mmmmm.... I likey too.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

It's not... it's Ianto's twin brother, Angawdd.

They're going to have Jonescest and a Harkness sandwich. S3!

[lionessvalenti.livejournal.com]

Oh, good, I wasn't the only one who did that. My train of thought was "Kiss! Wait. That was Ianto, right?". I figured it would be, though. They're good at fan service.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Oh, you slay me.

"Right, no, clothes." And her eyes are like... saucers.

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

LOL! That would be...interesting...

That's from a movie he was in a few years ago, Method. Someone uploaded all his scenes from it awhile ago and I downloaded it. His character's gay, if that isn't obvious from this shot. There's a whole scene or 2 in the bedroom where he's practically naked. guh.

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

LOL. Yeah, I was like "Is that Ianto or do we have a new pretty?!"

[alba17.livejournal.com]

I didn't even realize that was Jack until a saw a screencap! I thought it was just some random person. He looks extra shlubby there - who knew you could make John Barrowman look shlubby? bad costuming move. And Ianto's pants are too long also. Yeah, the burned person better not be the promised naked!Jack, I'm telling ya.

[alba17.livejournal.com]

It was hard to tell in the actual trailer. I did the exact same thing. Of course, I downloaded it and looked at it frame by frame just for research purposes. And then there's that burned body right after this kiss, that's a shock.

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you!

So, would you recommend this film? Or are the nudie scenes enough?

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

"research purposes", eh? ;)

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

That IS. It's kind of like HOT! Then... NOT!

Creepy juxtaposition, there.

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

It's Torchwood, there're creepy juxtapositions everywhere...

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Point.

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

...*blinks* is that icon snaggable?

[51stcenturyfox.livejournal.com]

Sure. I made that one. (Didn't make this one, obviously. Wish I had, though.)

[eviinsanemonkey.livejournal.com]

Because Rhys is made of a thousand kinds of awesome?
