the decrease in costuming quality over the last 20 years has been soooo precipitous & nauseating. i’m not even talking abt marvel’s cg supersuits or anything this time, look at the fabric quality, structure, layering, character, and craftsmanship of older costumes in 102 dalmations (2000) vs cruella (2021)

ever after (1998) vs cinderella (2021)

lord of the rings (2001-2003) vs the rings of power (2022)

this trend should upset you not just because it looks cheap, but because it suggests a strong anti-art and anti-labor movement in film and tv making. don’t forget costumers are unionized

DC comics culture is watching fifteen thousand different versions of Batman’s parents’ murders and his subsequent gritty and dark descent into vigilantism when all you want is fifteen minutes of him interacting with his seven and a half adopted children in an even vaguely healthy way

Everything about this is comedic gold. Michael shouting, David calling himself an acting chameleon and saying “ffs”, then shouting back at Sheen and THEN Michael yelling about his own hair going blonde

favorite ship dynamics:

1) soft, sweet, basically married, just haven’t admitted to themselves or each other yet.

2) Person A is emotionally a skittish feral cat and person B has to gently “pst pst” them into a relationship

pratchett will write an entire book about the grim reaper pretending to be santa claus while the grim reaper’s granddaughter goes about hunting down the dumbass who decided to kill santa, and then right when you think you’re done and the oddly pointed shenanigans are winding down he hits you with “humans need fantasy to be human. to be the place where the falling angel meets the rising ape,” and knocks you into next wednesday

it’s that time again

i still think the best thing about lizzie/darcy is how almost nobody knew it was happening like it was SCANDALOUS and charged and they constantly oscillated between wanting to jump each other or jump each other's bones and everyone was too busy watching the vanilla trainwreck of bingley/jane and the victorian equivalent of a nuclear bomb that was lydia and wickham to realize that a whole THING was going on right in front of their respective perfectly boiled vegetables

i want people (writers) to stop describing jason as the angry sibling, and start using the description that damian gave him

But you? You're the most... emotional.

because it is correct, jason is very emotional, and I want writers to start writing him like that in other comics that are not his solo ones, instead of just writing him like the angry "I hate my dad" one

A Pirates of the Caribbean Take Nobody Asked For:

Will may have learnt How To Pirate from Jack, from the first film and that crazy rescue mission (I mean, the last scene at the gallows says everything to me — the hat, the dramatic sword throw, the teamwork with the rope — he’s Jack’s protégé whether he likes it or not) And for a while I thought the same thing about Elizabeth, only then I realised: she didn’t learn piracy from Jack. She learnt it from Barbossa.

She’s always been more ruthless than Will, more efficient, more fierce. Most of the first film, she spent with Barbossa, and she knew he was dangerous. She was exasperated with Jack and underwhelmed by him when they were marooned, and came up with her own plan, completely without his help. She schemes and lies and plays it smart, she’s proud and dignified and she knows it.

If Will was Jack’s unwitting protégé, Barbossa was Elizabeth’s unwitting mentor.

seeing as I am always here to champion PotC as The Rise of Elizabeth Swan, Pirate King, I am so here for this

Barbossa would be fucking proud.

How Raleigh Becket Changed His Tune Once He Met Miss Mako Mori: A Short Story

Oh god I never noticed how his shoulders drop in that last gif. It looks like he is literally sighing over how perfect she is.

He LITERALLY sighs at her when she walks by. NEVER have I seen a main character hero who is an extremely masculine male be SO ADORING of a woman. He has literal stars in his eyes. He’s tipsy on admiration. He looks at her like she brought Christmas and puppies and chocolate cake.

I STAN MANLY MEN WHO ARE RESPECTFUL AND EMOTIONALLY AVAILABLE AND TOTAL EQUALS WITH THEIR LADY FRIENDS

Raleigh treats Mako like the capable adult that she is but he just worships her. He treats her correctly but he walks on air behind her with hearts in his eyes. Dude is crushing hard and still gets what needs to be done done.
