Holiday Gifts For Him | A Guide Inspired by Mr. Darcy, “The Ideal Man”

Image
This holiday season marks the 10th anniversary when Joe Wright’s Pride & Prejudice (2005) made its way across the pond becoming a sensation. Matthew Macfadyen’s portrayal either revived old feelings or gave an introduction to millions of fans stateside why Mr. Darcy is the ultimate romantic hero. No other male figure in literature can compete with his enduring appeal with so many generations of women.  Mr. Darcy’s fandom is so vast and fierce that he is the inspiration for spin-offs, adaptations, fan fiction, collectibles, and even games. His popularity spans the far reaches of the internet, from discussion forums to a manifold presence on every social media outlet in existence. Let’s face it, there’s just something about him. Jane Austen birthed this character over 200 years ago and he is still that dude!   A day ago Miss Austen would have turned 240, Happy Freaking Birthday Jane!!! So let’s get this party started by examining one of her most beloved creations! ...

Happy 240th Birthday JANE AUSTEN!

Image
Happy 240th Birthday to the lovely, genius and way ahead of her time, beloved English novelist, the one and only, JANE AUSTEN ! Worth re-posting every year (and slightly edited and updated) for your FYI... Remembering and celebrating her birthday today, Jane Austen , the woman who wrote the original Pride and Prejudice novel (which had been made into several TV and Film adaptations including the 2005 film, Pride & Prejudice ), which was her first (can you believe unsuccessful ?!) submission to a publisher back in 1797 ( 217  years ago) titled "First Impressions" (later changed to "Pride and Prejudice" ). She revised " First Impressions " and published it entitled " Pride and Prejudice " in 1813 ( 202  years ago, 11 months ago this year!).

Lionsgate UK, the UK distributor for PPZ movie , has released several P&P character posters (similar to The Hunger Games movies' character posters approach, where they released 2 posters at a specific UK movies' related websites/blogs at a time...after all, Lionsgate was the same distributor for all THG films), a total of 8 (thus far). They released 2 posters at a time to the following websites: Radio Times , Digital Spy , Metro.co.UK , and IMPawards .

A New Hallmark Movie 'Unleashing Mr. Darcy' to premiere January 23, 2016!

Image
I wouldn't have noticed there's a new movie with Mr. Darcy 's name as part of the movie's title, had I not been following and watching Hallmark channel's annual Countdown to Christmas movies a lot lately and, of course, my social media feed. The P&P fan in me instantly notices anything P&P/Austen and Darcy related things or mentions, lol. Yes, I'll admit, I love Hallmark and their typical romantic (with happy ending) movies (after all, P&P's timeless story probably inspired them all) and their feel-good original Christmas movies that I love watching (my guilty pleasure) and gets me into the Christmas holiday spirit and mood. I didn't see the title of this new movie on their promo preview until I saw the list of Hallmark movies in the WinterFest 2016  movies Schedule that will be airing in the New Year as part of Hallmark's WinterFest 2016 of new original movies for all of January 2016.

ITV has released a new  Text Santa  -  Downton Abbey   sneak peek sketch video featuring  Penelope Wilton 's Isobel Crawley with Hugh Bonneville 's Lord Grantham searching for the right Father Christmas (aka Santa Claus) with  Brenda Blethyn ' s Vera showing up for the audition and Brendan Coyle 's Mr. Bates popping up out of nowhere, lol...The P&P fan in me can't help thinking this was another awesome P&P/DA connection , Mrs. Bennet (P&P 2005) reunited with her sister-in-law Mrs. Gardiner ( P&P 2005 ) who was sitting next to a different Mr. Bennet ( Lost In Austen 's own Mr. B !). I'd love for Keira & Matthew to make a cameo as Elizabeth & Darcy as a P&P 10th Anniversary reunion special or homage for the P&P movie fans. If only this idea is possible... Watch the Text Santa sketch video below...

Rosamund Pike to READ Pride and Prejuduce audio book to be released December 8! (Updated)

Image
Previously, we heard  Matthew Macfadyen , Mr. Darcy himself, read the first proposal scene of Jane Austen 's beloved classic Pride and Prejudice novel . It would've been amazing if he had read the entire book. Also, it would been awesome if he and  Keira Knightley   would read P&P audio book together as I already pictured them as Darcy & Elizabeth whenever I re-read the novel. But since, neither one are reading it anytime soon (perhaps someday, who knows? MM , at least has read a passage of it), I just read this newsbit on  Boston Globe's article  that their former P&P co-star ,  Rosamund Pike   aka Jane Bennet , the eldest Bennet sister will be reading P&P novel 's new audiobook version to be released Next month, December 8th ! Although in  Pride & Prejudice   movie, Miss Jane Bennet said, "I wish I read more, but there's just so many other things to do." Not so, with Miss Rosamund Pike , who played her, as...

Pride & Prejudice References in Pop Culture (Part 6)

It is a truth universally acknowledged that global fans of Pride & Prejudice ( 2005 ) movie love, love, love watching it whenever it's showing on TV (even though they own the DVD, Blu-Ray, Amazon or iTunes copies) and never get tired of watching it.
