Our theme is “responsibility” at my school right now, and many students have made posters. This one is my favorite:
isn't sleeping supposed to cure the tired sleepy? and yet
not to be dramatic, but life really is about choosing love despite
I hope Dusko is doing okay
the whole body is surrounded by bananas, making the cat feel safe and concealed
recalling my insane former roommate who said their cat did things out of genuine emotion whereas my cat behaved performatively
if i had seen the transition from sepia to color in wizard of oz in 1939 i would have lost my shit i would've started screaming in the theater
Okay no but like, I am still SO ENAMORED by this transition y’all, ‘cause when Dorothy opens the door of the house onto the colors of Oz, the inside of the house is still sepia toned. And they did that by literally making the interior and the costume and everything SEPIA TONED. You had a double for Judy Garland in a specifically-created sepia-toned dress, in a sepia-toned set, opening the door, backing out of frame, and then the Dorothy that steps back into frame is Judy Garland in her full color costume and makeup, stepping out into the color set.
It’s just
Y’all it’s such a GREAT EFFECT, and this was before computer effects and green screen, it was all practical and yeah it feels like nothing now, but at the time, man, not only was technicolor new, but I’m pretty sure no other movie had done a transition out of b/w or sepia into color, and even knowing it was a technicolor film, that must have just been fucking wild to see! It still is wild to see!! It’s so good.
The technique of switching between double and main actor without an edit is called a Texas Switch and it's still used today, it's very neat to have something so simple yet tricky persist pretty much just because it genuinely looks better to do it with timing than with editing.
Her double's name was Bobbi Koshay, and the movie would not have been possible without her, so make sure you include it!

dreamt that jack black was a vampire and me and a few others were gonna have a vampire orgy but none of the others wanted to fuck vampire jack black and he gave me the saddest most defeated look and it was honestly heartbreaking
meet me in my dreams tonight to give vampire jack black the vampire orgy he was so unjustly denied
I used to feel so afraid thinking about my future but I’m finally here and I’m happy ❤️
Lil Nas X should make a song for the new Spiderverse movie, as a treat for the gays.
i love myself but i dont love me back
I miss the cinema. I miss expensive popcorn and sneaking in my own candy and finding the perfect spot with my loved ones and watching the trailers for new movies and being quiet for two whole hours with a bunch of strangers as we all get to experience the same thing at the same time :(
