Phantom Jack...

[fajrdrako]

gigs_83 on torch_wood pointed me to this clip on YouTube, which has John Barrowman singing "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera. I like the Phantom music, I love Barrowman's singing, of course I watched it. It shows visuals from "The Empty Child" and "The Doctor Dances" - but what I really enjoyed is at the end, a trailer for "The Doctor Dances" in Japanese. I get a kick out of seeing Captain Jack be so... omnilingual.

You didn't have a chance to copy it...I didn't even get a chance to see...poor me.

Yeah, Seki Toshihiko has dubbed at least 3 manga/animation character I've written fanfics about, all three very flamboyant: a pistol-waving, foul-tempered, good-looking Messianic leader, a nameless, mysterious antique shop owner who calls himself Count and seems to have some unhuman powers, and a seemingly callous warrior who's both a playboy and a great friend. And all three have some Jackish things about them. His style can be so heroic and flamboyant and enchanting all at once.
Now I really feel awful...

I'm sure it will reappear somewhere, somehow. It isn't as if Shark Attack 3 is the kind of movie one would actually want to watch, you understand. Or that I would. But the shower scene - at least in the YouTube clip I saw - immediately follows the infamous moment when John Barrowman says to the leading lady (the one who can't act), "Why don't I take you home and eat your pussy?" He said on Jonathan Ross that he ad-libbed that as a joke to make the actress laugh, and he was horrified (but clearly amused) when they left it in the finished movie. Since the whole thing was dubbed, they must have put it back in with the dubbing.

Anyway, this is followed by the shower scene, which isn't particularly exciting as shower scenes go, it's mostly Barrowman kissing her neck, shoulders and breasts and they're both all wet and dripping under the water ... nice but not spectacular. Then somewhere towards the end of the clip Barrowman flicks his tongue against the girl's neck and suddenly it's amazing - there's such sexual electricity in that moment that it makes you sit up and gasp. I don't know how he did that.

And I really wouldn't mind seeing it again. I'm not sure I'm willing to watch that whole terrible movie all the way through to see it again, though. Maybe.

Seki Toshihiko's dubbing roles sound wonderful - and perfect for Jack.

Well, I haven't downloaded 'Shark Attack 3' because I don't know whether I 'll laugh too hard or be deeply embarrassed: neither sounds very fair for the poor people involved with it...
Anyway, everyone has been in embarrassingly bad things. (one of my favourite Hong Kong actors, even had made porn at the beginning of his career. And it's even hetero porn, while the actor himself was gay.) So I guess after all this I won't be embarrassed by something as normal as 'Shark Attack 3' at all...Maybe I should go download it:)
And yes, something like sexual electricity can come all of a sudden, and how it happens can never be explained.
And do you know where one can find the transcript of that Jonathan Ross show? I've watched it once on YouTube, but I didn't get everything right.

I think I'd want to hide under the sofa cushions or something.

Odd definition of normal (subnormal?) but I see what you mean!

I had a transcript... I'll try to see if I can find it again for you.

I hope I didn't throw it away after I read it! I don't think I would have, I enjoyed it too much... I'll try to find it for you as soon as possible.
