quick everyone make this place abysmal just for like 5 days ok. start some extra fandom discourse or start shipping politicians or something please just for like a week?? so we can throw them off??
I’m still mad about that one sci-fi movie I watched years ago that expected me to believe that
1. Martians evolved, developed an advanced civilisation, and were wiped out by a planetoid impact, all before life on Earth developed. That means they probably did all that in one-eighth of the time it took us to get to the same point, if not even faster
2. Martians seeded Earth “before the continents separated” with life. The fuck does that mean? Pangaea!>>!??!?!? THERE WAS ALREADY LIFE THERE
3. This seeding led to the evolution of all Earth life, including dinosaurs and humans, and Martians are genetically identical to humans. As in “their DNA is closer to ours than that of a chimp,” something which is literally a plot point in the movie
I don’t remember what that movie was called but if I did I would be genuinely tempted to pay someone to review this mind-boggling mess
O.O
I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS NONSENSE
I’m almost sure this is the plot of the 2000 movie ‘Mission to Mars’, whose plot is set in, get this, 2020.
If you’ve ever posted a superhero related prompt, only to have the entire Megamind fandom pile into the notes to loudly insist that Megamind already did it, allow me to reassure you that, in all likelihood, Megamind did not in fact already do it. Nine times out of ten, what’s actually the case is that:
What you described doesn’t happen in Megamind, but there’s a popular bit of film-adjacent fanon that involves something similar
Something happens in Megamind that includes some of the same tropes as what you described, but not in that particular configuration
Something happens in Megamind that sort of gestures in the general direction of what you described
What you described is a narrative that could conceivably be constructed from elements that are present in Megamind, but is not the narrative that the film in fact presents
The exact opposite of what you described happens in Megamind
While catching up on the latest episode of CR I doodled this Veth piece that I think really captures her whole vibe.
[follow me on twitter and instagram too, for more of the exact same drawings and the occasional ramblings]
[ID: Art of Veth Brenatto from Critical Role. She is a fat halfling woman with medium brown skin and almost black hair. Her hair is braided in two, and is over her shoulders. She has light green, curling lines tattooed around her eyes. She is leaning forward, her face scrunched up, as she sticks her tongue out at something off to the right. Veth is dressed in a light pink, white fur-lined overcoat with a wide skirt. Her fluffy ear muffs have antlers. In her visible hand, she is holding a crossbow. In the background is a snowy plain leading to a mountain range and a clear sky. /end ID]
