I’m sure someone’s already noticed this but-

Look at how they framed the shots of Adam’s confrontation with Satan.

He’s got, quite literally, a demon and an angel over each shoulder.

AND THAT’S NOT EVEN THE BEST PART.

Because in those classic depictions of the angel and the devil each perched on a shoulder, the two are always portrayed as fighting with one another, each trying to influence a person for Good or Evil, but HERE they’re not fighting. At least, not with each other.

Though they’ve employed different methods to reach this end, they are united in a common goal. Save Adam. Save the world.

Crowley and Aziraphale are a visual representation of what Adam has within himself - what all humans have within themselves, the potential for good and evil / light and dark / whatever you want to call it.

And I think what this scene is visually implying is that it’s okay to have a bit of both - in fact, it’s probably for the best, given the cruelty we see dished out by those who are purely angel and demon.

Adam has both good and evil within him. All humans do. And THAT is what allows him to choose to rebel against his father. And it’s that very choice which makes the rebellion possible because it proves beyond all doubt that he is something the antichrist could not possibly be - human.

there’s no obvious reason for David Tennant to make Crowley walk quite like that but god bless him for absolutely committing to the one textual cue of ‘saunter’ like his hips depended on it

He read the script and thought you know what lets “Hell’s Next Top Model the shit out of this one”

We really are a police state.

It’s worse than that. That wasn’t a rubber bullet, that was another tear gas canister–you can see it a few seconds later in the footage when the camera pans over to the advancing cops.

And they shot him in the crotch with it.

If I were feeling charitable I’d say that the cop who fired the shell was aiming for center of mass and miscalculated the distance and hit the guy low.

But I’m not feeling charitable. It’s clear that was a deliberate malicious attack designed to hurt the guy as badly as possible with the weapon at hand. The goal was to cause him pain and intimidate bystanders.

this really is dystopic, isn’t it?

Shout out to the dude who came and helped him up

THIS IS WHY YOU BLACK BLOC. WHEN EVERYONE IS MASKED AND IN ALL BLOC, IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR THE POLICE TO TARGET INDIVIDUALS LIKE THIS

MASK UP, COME IN BLOC, BE PREPARED, YOU. COULD SAVE SOMEONES LIFE

Also get to know your street medics and maybe buy them a drink later. They’ll often be the ones picking you up and making sure you’re good after this shit happens

Tumblr teaching modern gorilla warfare. Love it.
