#SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL IN THIS PANEL ♥o♥

Thoughts/rants on Sandman ep. 4 below the cut ... ^^
- Hell looked pretty cool! A little generic still - they are really stripping away most of the bizarre and weird shit from the comics. But they did use some panels from the comic quite directly, and brought them to life, which looked very cool. And some scenes were even better than the comic :O
- Gwendoline Christie ♥♥♥
- Why would they change it and have Lucifer fight Dream, instead of Choronzon himself, which would have been more to be expected :/ To make it more “dramatic”? :/
- The end of their fight was really corny lmao :/ :/ :/ With all the foreshadowing in the episode itself (especially the added dialogue with Nada) and not least the title of the episode, there was really no need to drag it out so dramatically ...
- Matthew deserves better than being a cute comic relief pep talking mascot ;(
- Choronzon was pretty hot though :3
- With all the CGI, they should have been able to CGI Mazikeen’s head to be half blown off like in the original? At least the side of her mouth is an open wound, so I still live in hopes to see the epic French kiss ^^ WITH GWENDOLINE CHRISTIE, AT THAT♥♥♥
- I do appreciate that she was included in this sequence when she wasn’t yet in the original ♥ And Cassie Clare is amazing ♥
- Nada looked so beautiful, clean and peaceful for someone in hell since 10,000 years ... She deserves mercy by all means, which is, however, the whole point of her suffering in the story. :/ Seriously, the extreme level of conventional beauty and “looking normal” of all these characters ...
- I guess they wanted to make sure we know what a fucking douche Dream is by revealing the reason he sent Nada to hell already here ^^ 
- When I saw they changed Rosemary to a Black woman with a Rottweiler, I swore to dog, if anything happened to either of them ... I’m actually glad their fate was different from the comic. But are they trying to make John Dee a nicer person who has actual moral values? I’d prefer if it was just meant as him operating completely unpredictably and chaotically, and randomly gifting an extremely powerful object to her because he just didn’t need it anymore ...
I’d hope that the show, while being so ‘meh’, will inspire lots of new people to read the comics, at least! And I guess even for people who liked the show and might be surprised by the comics being so different, they have a good chance of coming to appreciate the comics. Because they are just so good ^^

‘a ghost on the roof’ livewatch
Tumblr media
the relaunch of ‘ghost on the roof’ is FINALLY here!!!! there are 3 eps out, but i’ll be reading the first two since it’s a 2 parter. i’ve done a webtoon livewatch before and now it’s time to do it again! will this new version of ‘ghost’ be better than the original? let’s find out! :D
Tumblr media
it’s just like the original! :D
the lens flare tho! :o
‘some say it’s for revenge. some say it’s for fear. some say it’s for love.’ and i’d say a ghost haunts for all of those reasons! ;)
Tumblr media
this is a beautiful logo! i love how the first and last letters are shattered like the musical one! (and a mirror...)
Tumblr media
this is a year ago, yet the grand staircase is beautiful as always! (and this is a new backstory it seems!)
Tumblr media
there she is! :D
and this is the failed audition they hinted at throughout the canvas version! :o
Tumblr media
beautiful! ♥
Tumblr media Tumblr media
she’s like cinderella! and the lighting tho! ♥
Tumblr media
madame giry looks as strict as ever! :)
Tumblr media
oh no the accident was tragic! i hope it didn’t have anything to do with a chandelier...
this sort of reminds me of how rewrite christine is terrified of singing on stage because of the chandelier fall! maybe she’s work in costumes like ‘ghost’ christine and slowly work her way back to singing on stage :)
Tumblr media
cecile looks a lot like rewrite sorelli! i wonder if the rumor is the opera ghost tutoring christine... ;)
Tumblr media
CALLED IT!!! ;D
poor christine! she’s doing a nervously sad version of the arthur fist! :/
Tumblr media
omg mannequins! :o
Tumblr media
...peoplequins? :o
Tumblr media
same christine let’s get outta here!
oh no they’re talking about christine! RUN CHRIS RUN!!!
Tumblr media
aww that must be madame valerius’ name! (and a possible nod to epic marie from ‘phantom’ or gaston leroux’s wife?) i remember being so confused about that when i read the canvas version so i’m glad it’s cleared up here! :)
Tumblr media
ooh spooky! :o
Tumblr media
and it’s on the roof! :o
funny the sky is a pinkish orange color right now! but the view isn’t as beautiful as that!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
poor christine! :’(
Tumblr media
the singing is flowery like in the original! and there are lyrics now! :D
the mirror could be foreshadowing... ;)
marguerite was mentioned so she’s singing a faust song! :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media
HOLY FRICK IT’S HIM :o
he’s here... the phantom of the opera....
Tumblr media
this is so spooky... who knew it was halloween already? :o
it must be since it’s windy outside just like in the comic!
Tumblr media
the new ending is so cute! :D
onto part 2!
Tumblr media
the lighting tho!!!!
Tumblr media
i’m imagining a slightly deep, echoing drippy voice for er- i mean... the opera ghost and it’s perfect! :D
...christine has never warmed up before she sings? even i do that a bit for little beatles eps!
Tumblr media
spooky! :o
Tumblr media
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY
this is like a horror movie! :o
Tumblr media
all is quiet... all is empty... all is lost... all is found...
...not found yet i just wanted to make a frozen reference ;)
Tumblr media
i think that’s christine’s shadow but it’s giving me him vibes! :o
WAIT A SEC... shadows don’t have glowing eyes...
NOPE NOT YOUR SHADOW
Tumblr media
the swirl... the lighting... THE GHOST!!!! it’s perfect! :D
Tumblr media
the phrase is back! :D (and that face tho!)
Tumblr media
i really hope this chapter 6 scene appears again btw! ;)
Tumblr media
aww :)
i hope that convinces christine to come back!
Tumblr media
OH CRAP HE LOCKED THE DOOR????
and he’ll only let her go if she listens to him? that’s so er- opera ghost! ;)
Tumblr media
i went up these stairs on google maps! ;)
Tumblr media
spooky panel sweet sentiment! :)
Tumblr media
whoops :/
Tumblr media
ooh future christine? :o
it reminds me of chibiusa with her future self in eternal!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
lol :D
Tumblr media
the petals breaking along with the ‘weak’ tho!
Tumblr media
he has a point!
Tumblr media
THERE’S THE STUTTER!!!!! :D
i love how ‘ghost’ erik has a little stutter and rewrite erik has it too when he’s nervous! ;)
Tumblr media
yes he did and yes it’s adorable! :D
Tumblr media
that sass tho! :D
Tumblr media
look at that view! :o
Tumblr media
gorgeous! :D
Tumblr media
lol! same tho... we’re in for a wild ride christine! :o
her phone scared her! :o
Tumblr media
yas it’s the boi! :D
Tumblr media
there he is!!! :D
i love his little freckles!
Tumblr media
aww! :D
he has the sweetest smile! :)
that’s a perfect ending to the two parter! and this was a perfect start to the new ‘ghost on the roof’! it’s a fantastic story so far with amazing lighting and lots of mystery! i’m off to read ep 3... and i’ll eagerly await the adventure ahead! ;)
...and this cuteness from ep 3 ;)
