You know how fans and fics keep trying to assert that Anakin was some kind of brilliant strategist/tactician? His two main strategies appear to be: wing it and just hope something works out, and brute force his way through because he can. I am CONVINCED that the only reason the 501st didn't end up like they do under Krell more often is because Rex is an insanely good strategist and Anakin likes Rex enough to just take Rex's suggestions and go with them and then Rex lets Anakin take the credit because he recognizes it does nobody any good to realize how terrible at this Anakin actually is and he thinks that Anakin taking his suggestions is a sign of actual trust rather than what's probably closer to laziness.

I was reading reviews for the new Witcher season and I came upon this got comparison:

I hate what game of thrones final season did to Dany and her development. Thanks to their awful writing, she's remembered as the queen whose good intentions lead to bad actions. Which is injust to Dany's character in the books who is nothing like she's portrayed on the season 8.

ST fandom wank but i saw that anti post that said billy hargrove lived and died a piece of shit and it's like, did we even watch the same death scene 😭😭

you really sat down, watched el delve into his memories to see that when he was a child, his mother abandoned him and his father abused him, saw him get the tiniest bit of emotional validation ever from el, watched that small exchange fuel him enough to break the mind control of the gigantic alien creature he knew nothing about except that it possessed him to step in front of it and literally protect el, a girl he doesnt even know, with his actual life--like he actually died! taking a hit meant for el!!!--and then as billy, an 18 year old lifeguard who teaches kids how to swim and who's had an abusive father practically his entire life, lay on the floor of a mall dying from the wounds inflicted on him by a creature he knew nothing about to save a pre-teen who is a stranger to him, you saw as he apologized to his (step-)sister with his dying breath, and you're telling me that you sat there and watched that whole entire scene and thought, "well, he's still a piece of shit."

where's your compassion?????

#fandom wank #discourse #fandom discourse #rei rambles #billy hargrove #stranger things #hate him all you want but let's not forget he died doing something heroic alright? #'his arguably heroic death doesnt excuse his past actions' his death is inarguably heroic from a narrative pov #and im not trying to excuse his past actions #what gets my goat arent the people who hate him. it's the ppl who refuse to see that he was written in a nuanced way #and then act morally superior for hating him. excuse me if i understand that he's a fictional character that contributes to an overall plot #anyways sorry i try so hard not to be discourse-y on my blog #but there's smthg abt the pervasiveness of billy antis that just makes me ghfaioabdksl #i dont discourse often but if u dont like to see it i tag 'fandom wank' & 'fandom discourse' & usually also just 'discourse'

the baru cormorant books genuinely understand the joy of solving puzzles. i can understand becoming an imperial cog in the machine so you can solve more and better puzzles.

I am enjoying red hood: the hill, but it's kind of driving me crazy how after they did all that shit in Gotham War, they immediately tried to sweep it under the rug with joker: the man who stopped laughing (even tho the issue wasn't really resolved over there), and now giving Jason a series set in the past so it doesn't have to deal with the fallout...DC please...

#ramblings of a lunatic #dc comics #I heard someone say that the next installment of dc vs vampires is seemingly the last thing Matthew Rosenberg has lined up at DC #which is a shame bc after reading his red hood: gotham war tie-in issues i think he has a pretty decent handling on Jason #the complicated and oft times contradictory line he walks between what violence is necessary and what isn't #but his sympathetic elements and charm are still on display #sigh. i need to read task force z don't i #one day I'll read under the red hood in full to get a taste of full on villain!jason #if i stick w/ GA past the phsycial volume i own I'm bound to come across him again and see if ppl are being normal abt the mia thing #idk I think jason as a character has somewhat suffered due to the fact that his character development was very much connected- #-w the n52 reboot #which worked at the time but now that a lot of that continuity is being brought back #it's making ppl realise that we didn't get a true ''jason putting aside differences to try and work w/ the batfamily'' arc or moment #although I do remember him being anti-heroic in the final crisis tie-in?? with kyle and donna right???? #i honestly think jason just needs a bit of tlc and introspection and this new storybeat provides a cool outlet for that #(someone talk to me about my red hood idea/pitch pretty pleasseee) #and definitely some cleaning up of his continuity (maybe after some more universe altering events. sigh) #but instead of hopping right on that when they have the opportunity we're getting an (admittedly fun) flashback series #in which jason is more of a co-star than headliner #bwahhh

The love people show for the pink-haired BDSM vampire lady is proof that Isaac could’ve gotten fans who love him with his og design. Or maybe the world is still too homophobic for that.

Literally enrages me. And I'm someone who discovered Isaac first on NFCV and went "ew he's ugly wtf" when I first saw how he looked in the games. It didn't take me too long to actually take a liking to the design and realize how much more compelling it was thant N!Isaac though :) (no one would be shitting on G!Isaac as much as they are now if there wasn't N!Isaac to compare him to. there would still be people, but less)

I mean at least Isaac's design have a sense. There is meaning behind his tattoos, his half-covered face, his clothes (and the lack thereof) all up to his sharp nails. N!Isaac has nothing, even his Devil Forgemaster UNIFORM is a downgrade and lose the sense it was supposed to have by not even having the Devil Forgemaster's crest on it to begin with. (I saw someone say that he looked "mysterious" because of his tattoos and no. No he doesn't. It's a few dots and two lines. It's the laziest tattoos, G!Isaac has the Devil Forgemaster crest embedded in his skin and his tattoos actually have forms and complexity you can try to interpret. what is there to interpret in N!Isaac's dots and lines?? MORSE CODE?? IT MEANS "MEIIIE" JUST SO YOU KNOW)

So it's already insulting that they changed his design because "bohoo he too slutty and BDSM-y he wouldn't fit" (even though you just had to give him clothes or smth), but it's even worse now that they literally took a HUMAN OLD LADY character (that could have been fun to have fight, to change from all the young-looking people) and turn her not only into a VAMPIRE, but a vampire with PINK HAIR, PINK EYES, AND A BDSM OUTFIT. And why? Because it's hot I guess. :) There's no other reason. I mean I'll give NFCV the benefit of the doubt and say that maybe they'll give an explanation in-universe as to why she is the way she is (just like it was explained in-universe what happened to Isaac to make him look and act the way he does. But no N!Isaac fans care about that since they couldn't keep shitting on G!Isaac otherwise). But yeah, I don't have much hope. NFCV was never smart enough to have characterization as deep and complex as the games could have. In the best way I could describe it... it's literally so american. It REEKS of america and it's culture and it's own view on things such as religion and gender and sex and politics. Friendly reminder that CV is originally a japanese franchise. So ofc the non-japanese creators had to force their own culture on it (consciously or not).

But honestly it looks borderline sexist to me. NFCV forced a male character to conform to the american standard of masculinity, and sexualized and slutiffied a female character that did not have any sexy trait before (since it wasn't the point of her character). And thus for no apparent reason. And people are literally applauding them... what the fuck.

#NFCV literally have no originality. none. everything it gets applauded for the games or other medias did first and better. #i have yet to see ANY important female character in their show that is not a young/good-looking girlboss #even MARIA IS NO EXCEPTION. #SHE'S A SWEET LITTLE ANGEL WHO WANTS TO KICK THE BAD GUYS' ASSES #SHE HAS SUCH A CHILD-LIKE VIEW OF THE HORRIFIC WORLD SHE LIVES IN AND THAT'S WHAT MAKES HER SO LOVABLE #SHE IS SO OPTIMISTIC AND HEROIC AND NOT AS NAIVE AS SHE MIGHT LOOK BECAUSE SHE CAN STILL TELL WHEN THERE IS DANGER #SHE'S THE GIRL WHO WAS LIKE 'I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT I'M A CHILD' WHEN DRACULA TRIED TO DEBATE ABOUT GOOD AND EVIL WITH HER #AND THEN NFCV COMES AROUND AND MAKE HER CALL RICHTER A “WANKER” #i hate this show so much and I am so ashamed of the fact i ever liked it #nnnnngh ANYWAY............ #i could go on and on about how much I despise the OG NFCV and everything i've seen of Nocturne this far #but I have to go to work. smh. #anti netflixvania

if i had a nickel for every time people will use a scene of girl jumping into water to save a guy who's her FRIEND, whom was basically on the brink of death to prove that she's in love with him, I'd have two nickels. which isn't a lot, but it's absolutely fucking irritating that it happened twice

[enbysiriusblack]

dorcas meadowes and sirius black are the anti hero marauder characters.

#if you're wondering why regulus isn't here. i shall explain my decision. #right so. an anti hero is a character who does good but has un- heroic like traits #an anti hero focuses on personal motivation above a sort of greater good. #and is generally disliked/on the outs with the clearer hero/villian characters #dorcas is on a clear side of good. but the way they go about it isn't that moral #they kill practically hundreds of people (bad people) out of more anger and grief than anything else #dorcas could be classed as a hero with more villianous qualities (acting on more selfish desires/careless about people they hurt) #sirius comes from a family of more villian characters but runs towards good #his intentions are some 'for the greater good' and just. to rebel. #they tend to act selfishly and impulsively and make bad choices #sirius strives to be a hero but his trauma and intentions land them in anti hero #whereas regulus. #he (unlike sirius and dorcas) isn't on/striving for good. #he is a very neutral character that is trapped in a villianous world #an anti hero actively does both good and bad. an anti hero thinks firstly of themsevles #regulus doesn't. his good deed is stealing the horcrux. his bad deed is joining the death eaters. #he does do both good and bad. but that just lands him as a neutral character. a morally grey victim. a complacent rebel. #dorcas and sirius do good things with bad intentions and bad things with good intentions #whilst regulus does a bad thing and a good thing. and so on. which cancels each other out. making him neutral. #marauders era #marauders #sirius black #dorcas meadowes

[chamerionwrites]

Because I am back on some very specific bullshit I am ofc also thinking about how Joseph Conrad and Roger Casement met (were very briefly roommates in fact) in the Congo, and seem to have really liked each other. Conrad wrote glowingly of Casement in his diary ("Made the acquaintance of Mr. Roger Casement, which I should consider as a great pleasure under any circumstances and now it becomes a positive piece of luck. Thinks, speaks well, most intelligent and very sympathetic"). Six years later Casement made a point of looking him up in London and they apparently talked until three in the morning.

And then two decades later Casement was hanged for treason because he tried to run guns from Germany to the Easter Rising, whereas Conrad prominently refused to sign the petition for clemency.

#contrast conan doyle who was at least as ardent a british imperialist as conrad but very loudly on team pardon #idk ultimately casement fascinates me *because* he was not an uncomplicatedly heroic figure #(he was also a man of his time and v much complicit in british imperialism) #but because he was capable of taking that step beyond cognitive dissonance and into anti-imperialism #and it's like. what is the thing that cracks someone's worldview open? witnessing atrocities sure but conrad witnessed the same things! #is it because he was irish is it because he was gay can we meaningfully answer such questions about ourselves let alone historical figures? #is it even useful to try? identity is not political destiny. we have so many examples of it not being that. #Ability To Open One's Goddamned Eyeballs is really kind of a wild thing to celebrate anyone for and yet. and yet. #if there was some secret foolproof formula for getting people to do it my god we could get so much done #roger casement #my posts #sorry i swear i will shut up now

I just recently rewatched NWH and I couldn't help but think Raimi Venom would have fit better than Sandman. Flint made his peace with Peter and didn't die fighting him. Eddie on the other hand...

Hm. Nah, I don’t think so. Building a plot point off the imaginary good in Norman Osborn of all people was bad enough but I think I’d actually riot if they took this guy

And gaslit me into believing he had a shred of decency in him to begin with

#Like. That’d be completely antithetical to the point in SM3 #Peter Parker while capable of being an ass is still a good person. Eddie Brock is not. Eddie embraces revenge whereas Peter grew ashamed #Peter is humbled Eddie is humiliated. That’s the difference y’know? #And you can apply that to Norman too—while Peter becomes more of his true self and by extension more heroic Norman becomes more villanous #Ugh the whole box plot point is just so fucking stupid so no I would prefer if they didn’t mess up Topher Eddie too #ask #anti mcu spiderman #eddie brock #venom #topher grace

Elwing and Eärendil? I have Thoughts about them and now I wonder what yours are

Oh boy you got me 😔

I know this is a really uh…controversial take, but I don’t ship them. Everything about them smacks of imprisonment. Like get a divorce already.

I think they got married way too young way too fast and that actually neither of them enjoyed being married, and Eärendil didn’t enjoy being a father and Elwing didn’t enjoy being a mother. Eärendil is constantly gone (????) and wanted to make the choice of Men, but Elwing talked him into making the choice to be counted amount the Eldar (entrapment) which then leads to him having his heroic big moment against the dragon only to be essentially imprisoned for the rest of his life as a star (entrapment). Like not to discount how cool they were for sailing to Valinor & petitioning for aid, and Elwing’s sacrifice to jump into the ocean with the Silmaril — but they both read as sort of an antithesis to Beren and Lúthien for me. Beren and Lúthien chose their destinies and went to them gladly. Eärendil seems to rage against his for his entire life only to be trapped by it in the end, and Elwing is a tragic victim of her birthright as heir to Doriath, a child monarch who is crowned before she’s old enough to understand what that kind of responsibility even means who “dies” well before her time, just as Dior did. These two are drenched in tragedy.

But like, not in a fun way IMO? I think Eärendil really resented Elwing for the Choice they both made and it really feels like he never wanted to be around at all, for the amount that he’s just not present in the narrative of Sirion — in theory he ought to be father and king consort — and also ought to be a ruler in his own right over the refugees from Gondolin. He’s heir to Gondolin after all. And he has two heirs of his own to raise. Instead he’s Eärendil the mariner and it feels to me like he just shirks all that responsibility because he craves freedom. He’s the classic runaway price archetype who does the Big Hero Things…but at what cost? Tolkien makes it clear in characters like Eowyn that the Big Damn Hero Thing is not really the ideal which he lauds. Better to live a quiet life than to yearn for a vainglorious death (again…Earendil’s fight against the dragon feels almost…suicidal to me? On the one hand it’s cool. On the other hand it resulted in the drowning of beleriand. It’s like Eärendil wanted to be the subject of songs and tales, always wanted to burn out fast and bright. Etc etc. and then he’s left in stasis with the Silmaril in the sky…)

I’m rambling oh my god, in any case I dislike both of them and I especially dislike them together. They feel to me like those couples who were really cute in high school but then got married before their brains were done developing, had kids too early, and now Dad is Always Working and Mom has postpartum depression and a wine problem and you just wish they’d get a divorce already but they won’t because they’re both too unpleasant and stubborn to do so. I don’t think either of them were ready or equipped to be parents and while I am grateful that they got married & had kids so then we get Elrond and Elros, I don’t think it was good for them and they would have been way better off apart.

#anti Eärendil #anti elwing #sort of #it’s complicated ajdjfugikl please don’t hate me #I don’t hate elwing but I hate Eärendil oops #he absolutely irritates me #I don’t think he’s a hero #he just does heroic things for unheroic reasons
