#elvis #elvis 2022 #elvis movie #austin butler #elvis presley #elvisedit #disclaimer i think that the literal recreation is approximately the least interesting aspect of the film #in the sense that. elvis impersonation qua impersonation is a solved problem #BUT. i just think it's neat #sorry everyone i got unironically into the baz luhrmann musical biopic about elvis presley #i.edit #x #side note fascinated by elvis sitting down vs movie!elvis shoved into place. a whole treatise on changing cultural mores which the margin is

Spoilers for hazbin hotel episodes 1 to 6

Before Lucifer even spoke Alastor didn't seem to like him. And based on the fact Lucifer didn't know who he was we know they haven't been officially introduced to eachother.

Now with Alastors seemingly baseless hatred I have a small theory. People have been making connections between Alastor and Lillith recently and I think they have some merit.

Lucifer mentions that him and Lillith "split" so either an argument or a divorce. And with that it brings interesting themes in.

Lillith could have sent Alastor to the hotel to preserve Charlie's hope. I wouldn't be suprised if Lillith told Alastor of how little faith Lucifer had in their daughter.

This could be where the fatherly role comes in from Alastor.

THIS IS ALL SPECULATION. but i thought it was an interesting take to have Lillith send Alastor to preserve her daughters dreams from not only other demons and heaven, but her own father.

Watching Trazyn's scene in "Artefacts" (aka my robot fucker awakening), it really does make me wonder if the creators were intentionally trying to make Trazyn into the fruitiest loop in the cereal box (if so, A+ job) or if they were just trying to villain code him!

Because yeah, thanks to the Hays code back in the day forbidding the explicit portrayal of homosexuality in Hollywood films, film and tv have a robust visual language for coding characters as queer (without explicitly stating anything about gender or sexuality). And of course queer coded characters couldn’t be GOOD, they had to be the baddies… which then created a situation where the visual language for Gay is also the visual language for Evil.

In “Artefacts”, we have the Chaos marines, who are definitely Not Good Guys (represented visually with dark colors, spikes, skulls, normal chaos stuff). For Trazyn they obviously wanted a contrasting antagonist, and they had about two minutes of screen time to work with. Naturally, some narrative shortcuts (aka coding) were in order. But contrasting the hypermasculine marines lead to…more slender design, a smoother vocal delivery, and the goddamn chin stroke. This is Disney Villain level shit, but I genuinely don’t know if that was intentional queer-coding or just a side-effect of this weird quirk of film history.

(I mean obviously I choose to believe Trazyn is gay as a rainbow house fire, but y’know…not sure if that’s “canon” XD)

#necrons #trazyn the infinite #That one hammer and bolter episode did work #Stupid sexy skeleton #Reworked my brain chemistry #I just think queer film history is neat #If you or your uncle wrote/animated/voiced this episode please weigh in #I need answers

watching people write in-depth meta about a t-shirt that says "fart" in english b/c they like the director and studio not realizing that's not even how costuming in film works and that a lot of english t-shirts in East Asian countries just Be Saying Shit for the Vibes but can't get past a bathtub full or flowers or recognize the surrealistic aesthetics playing off erotic media works of Playboyy b/c there's blowjobs and dudes are cranking it on screen

#playboyy the series #i promise y'all sometimes a shirt is just a shirt #sometimes you just like a thing and think it's cool but it's not intentional on the directors part #sometimes they add the color blue to a scene for emotional symbolism but 90% of the time it's b/c they like the color blue #it's neat #i'm cool with ppl having fun and being like yeah this is a neat thing I saw in the thing I like #but sometimes ppl be like this is 100% factual and intentional and I'm like wait what #and also the different ways I'm seeing ppl engage with something clearly not intentional #vs #a series that is using intentional framing in the filming and in it's visuals #but those shows are heartfelt romances while the other is about sex in a really frank non romantic way #makes me go hmmmmmmmmmmm #anyways #chaos pikachu speaks

I love putting hyperfixations in a blender so:

Dream's opinion: Tell me, Hob, what is more wonderful that a story that exists loosely between several minds, but it mostly exists in their collected subconsciousness? They put some of it into the world, but the connections they make, the images they visualize, those exist only in each of their dreamscapes. They say it doesn't exist, that that is the joke, but to me, it does exist, and it is extraordinary.

Hob's opinion: Listen, I miss the beauty of oral tradition as much as the next bloke from the 14th century and there is a shadow of that in all of this, but I gotta draw the line somewhere and this is it. This is where I'm drawing the line. Please. Have mercy on me, I am an old man and my students are inviting me to discussion forums of a movie that doesn't fucken exist.

Lucienne's opinion: *while holding the books that have appeared in the Dreaming because of our collective hallucination* What do you mean it doesn't exist, I have several scripts and fanfiction right here.

Matthew's opinion: FUCK YEAH MAFIA SHOOTING BLOOD KILLING SMOKING

Rose's opinion: [could not be reached for an opinion, too busy writing her own script]

#i just thought the prince of stories and anthropomorphic personification of our unconscious would think goncharov (1973) is quite neat #and it got away from me from there #dream now cites it as his favorite film and hob is Very Tired #goncharov #gonchposting #goncharov (1973) #the sandman #unreality tw #dream of the endless #hob gadling #lucienne #the sandman lucienne #the sandman matthew

#i just think they’re neat #effortlessly cool looking peter who’s honestly just a nervous wreck around pretty people #reg being pretty people #peters unbelievably bitchy boyfriend #peter is a quiet person. likes his solitude and keeps to his interests #interests: being outdoors books cooking gaming collecting film posters #reg is his chatty annoying boyfriend who wont ever shut up #peter has been bewitched body and soul by reg talking for 1h non stop on their first date because peter asked something like: #’what do you do’ and now reg is on an entire rant about it #peter is very charmed #reg has been bewitched body and soul by peters autistic swag and lowkey demeaor #he likes being invited to peters solitude #peter likes having him there #he likes breaking out of his habit and independence and inviting reg into his routine #they do picnic dates #and they go shopping #reg is rude to everyone but peter <3 #peter adores him and how unhinged he is #slutty twink reg and his effortlessly hot fat hipster boyfriend idk what to tell you #peter is also a stoner btw

since I watched the latest Transformers movies AND I can't go on reddit because of the blackout for recommendations

what cartoons and comics are good for a bitch who barely knows shit about the franchise cause Rise of the Beasts did NOT quench my Bumblebee adoration I had as a child

#rambles #transformers #??? i feel like a weirdo for barging into the tags not knowing anything im so sorry #i only have really watched the bumblebee film #michael bay stuff #and the animated series from 2007 #but i don't really remember a lot #wait are the live action movies even good from the perspective of a transtormers fanatic #i mean i dont think they are?? #i just really love Bumblebee and Starscream so i lose my mind when i see them #the loves of my life #even though i know nothing #i just think theyre neat #also Mirage is a cutie #i usually go on reddit for recommendations #but again with the blackout stuff its literally impossible #ill stop rambling now

Random idea I had for a Shine Muscat costume:

Okay so basically it’s her starring in a film noir, whether as the detective or the lady, I’m not sure, but the most notable thing is, the entire costume is in black and white, including Shine Muscat’s hair and dough, and when her Skill activates, the entire set is in black and white as well

I just thought it was a neat idea

#I feel like Shine Muscat’s costumes should be film based #since she’s an actor and currently our only big actor Cookie #I just think it’d be neat #cookie run #cookie run ovenbreak #shine muscat cookie #costumes #costume idea #random stuff

would literally lay my life down for shirley “never been in public alone before because her family is infantilizing and taught her to fear everything enabling her ocd/anxious compulsions and has never allowed her to become her own person or take up space beyond A Chair” cohen

#i VEHEMENTLY disagree with takes such as: shirley has no development shirley is a caricature shirley is annoying etc #she is played comedically because let’s be real the whole point of anxiety is it’s absurdity but She The Person is written with affection #as someone with ocd i think shirley is the first like ocd coded character i’ve actually felt kinship and related to #i just think shes neat #i think it’s potentially one of the most accurate depictions of ocd in film/tv i’ve seen #which is like. very good very cool. #th.txt #shirley cohen #a league of their own #aloto

ages of LOST characters when we first meet them vs the ages of the actors when they first started playing them. reminder that the starting point of LOST is september 22nd 2004. if a character’s age seems one less than sounds right to you its because their birthday is coming up. if a character is missing from this it’s because we don’t know their age in canon (looking at you, desmond)

jack shephard: 34 matthew fox: 38

kate austen: 27 evangeline lilly: 25

hugo “hurley” reyes: 25 jorge garcia: 31

james “sawyer” ford: 35 josh holloway: 35

sawyer says he’s 35. but lostpedia only has sawyer’s birthyear, 1968, making him 36. however an easy explanation for this is that sawyer has a birthday coming up in the post september to december range (like many other characters here) thus making the birthyear and what sawyer said still right

john locke: 48 terry o’quinn: 52

sayid jarrah: 36 naveen andrews: 35

jin-soo kwon: 29 daniel dae kim: 36

sun-hwa kwon: 24 yunjin kim: 31

claire littleton: 21 emilie de ravin: 23

charlie pace: 27 dominic monaghan: 27

okay so an odd thing happened here. we don’t actually know charlie’s age in canon, except that based on a statement from liam that he’s absolutely less than 30. and basically what happened is there was big debate on lostpedia, the general gist being he’s 25 to 28, until everybody just gave up and they slapped dom’s birthday on charlie’s page. and it’s still there to this day

walt lloyd: 10 malcolm david kelley: 12

walt’s actor was gonna age outta the role anyways due to the nature of lost’s timeline but their first mistake was casting a 12 year old. like, hello, puberty?

shannon rutherford: 20 maggie grace: 21

boone carlyle: 23 ian somerhalder: 26

danielle rousseau: 44 mira furlan: 49

ethan rom: 27 william mapother: 39

the consequences of season 5 are starting to hit

bernard nadler: 56 or 57 sam anderson: 58

ana lucia cortez: 29 michelle rodriguez: 27

eko tunde: 35 adewale akinnuoye-agbaje: 38

alexandra “alex” rousseau/linus: 16 tania raymonde: 17

benjamin “ben” linus: 39 michael emerson: 51

this isn’t even due to later timeline decisions, they just decided to do this

miles straume: 27 ken leung: 38

daniel faraday: 26 jeremy davies: 39

charlotte lewis: 33 rebecca mader: 31

and theeere’s the season 5 whammy. for those who don’t know (you must be new to my blog) dan and miles ages differ so much from their actors because when our guys are in 1977, it suited the story and characters better for miles to be a baby and dan to be an embryo (and char to be 6) at the same time. the writers were set on 1977 being the year everybody got stuck in and that’s how we get daniel faraday being an oxford professor at fucking 18

it’s something that gets funnier and sadder the longer you think about it

anyways. thank you for your time!

#i dunno when exactly lost started filming so the actor's ages are close enoughs #i say this like any of you care that much #anyways i just think lists are neat #this took more effort that it looks. i had to look up every actor's birthdays and i had my calculator open the whole time #this took forever and my computer hated doing it #7 years isn't much of an age difference but because dan's starts with a 2 and char's starts with a 3 it looks like a much bigger gap #miles would jokingly call char a cougar
