Came across this old ad in my college stuff...a real blast from the past!

Bucket hat? Check

Sweater set? Check

Giant Nokia cellphones? Check

All this needs is a reference to Cingular instead of AT&T and it would perfectly encapsulate pre-9/11 America haha

just got done seeing the re-release of sam raimi's spider-man on the big screen and now y'all are gonna hear my thoughts whether you like it or not:

the danny elfman music kicked on during the opening credits and i had full-body goosebumps before the marvel logo even came up on screen because i'm a fucking loser.

speaking of opening credits, remember when movies used to have those? i miss it. bring them back.

the upside-down kiss remains the greatest cinematic kiss of all time. don't argue with me when i'm right.

the setup and repetition of "don't tell harry." fantastique.

the cinematographyyyy. bitch. the way the camera follows spider-man swinging through traffic, up and around buildings, across the city…..i just don't get the same feeling of movement in either of the reboots. they're too clean. they're like iphone commercials. they're gross.

speaking of iphones, during the festival scene in times square there was a billboard ad for cingular and i thought about how i used to have a cingular phone and i almost committed suicide in the theater. i'm so old.

everyone calls her "aunt may" – including norman osborn, a grown-ass man. 'twas adorable.

"and i know i'm not your father—" "then stop pretending to be!" maybe i WILL kill myself in this alamo drafthouse.

watching this made me miss having regular-degular goons and scumbags in comic book movies. i'm tired of the "i want to rule the world, i want all the power" schtick. rob a bank. hijack a train. kidnap the mayor. have fun with it. you're in a comic book movie, for fuck's sake.

the balance between campy fun superhero stuff and earnest, genuine emotion was better than i remembered – and one never came at the expense of the other.

jk simmons. nothing else to add here – i just wanna remind people that he fucking crushed this role and burned it down and nobody has been able to touch it since.

on a similar note: willem dafoe. he didn't just chew the scenery – he had a fucking feast. fuck, man. he's great.

unrelated to the film-making itself, but....what exactly is the military purpose of a glider where the pilot is completely exposed? and why did it already look like a halloween machine before osborn becomes the goblin? questions i ask.

anyway, i realize you could hand-wave a lot of this as me falling for the nostalgia of it all (which i absolutely am), but also...i dunno. there's an undercurrent of sincerity to this movie that i just don't really feel in comic book movies anymore. that's probably because the current spate of comic book movies aren't even really movies anymore – they're products. they're vacuum-sealed, rubber-stamped, climate-controlled products to sell you a disney+ subscription or whatever the fuck the warner bros equivalent is (is it max? i think it's max). and every movie has an ending setup that tries to sell you on the next product, and the next, and the next...

anyway. with this first spider-man, yes it's silly at times, but this movie embraces it, warts and all. there's a well-balanced mix of goofy dialogue ("are you in or are you out?" "it's you who's out, gobbie – out of your mind!") and heartfelt moments (i mean, do i even need to say it? "with great power comes great responsibility"). i know it's a hack thing to say "they don't make movies like they used to" but.....man, they REALLY don't make movies like they used to.

#*t #part review; part rant #i'm INCREDIBLY bummed i won't be around to see the spider-man 2 re-release #and uhh. i think i'll be skipping the re-release of the third one lmao. #but i'm glad i made it to at least the first one. what a movie.

22, 17 if you have one, 33, 6 - for the meme :-)

6.) if you could choose any place in the world to visit, where would it be? why?

that is so tough. there are countless places i want to visit, but also... hate the tourism industry. i definitely want to visit places as well a visitor and not a tourist. currently, i think id like to go to somewhere along the Mediterranean sea... maybe the cinque terre, or somewhere in greece

17.) what’s your favorite painting? and describe how it makes you feel?

i really like andrew wyeth's stuff lately! i honestly enjoy all of his paintings, but i have a soft spot for "master bedroom" (and all of his dog ones hehe)

22.) what was your first cell phone?

UHHH oh god it was some kind of cingular (yeah.) flip phone. that thing was a fucking trooper. it survived, no joke, a month buried in the snow. and worked. like it turned on immediately when i found it again.

33.) your personal favorite oddity about yourself?

UMM... my ability to speak individual dogs' languages. and also come up with great funny acronym things on the spot (like CPTSD stands for Can't Poop Today, Sucking Dick"

There's something very early 2000s about papers that need to explain how instant messaging works 🙂

I love gtting this question bc it means i can infodump

i use a fuk ton of different cameras across my journy on the web, so ill show you my main shit along with examples bc i h8 when ppl dont show examples when they are talking about cameras.

1: Webcam (chrome book, linux mint, Cheese)

i mainly use this for quick photos, but i always really use it for my youtube videos if im like home n shit

2: Sony Cybershot DCS P1

this baby girl is retiered bc she has a fukin sezier every time she fukin goes out in the sun, she is VERY LOW QUALITY for videos, so i didnt record much with her, but every photo i took was basically from her for the longest time until this sumer

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8fa7bCw/ (YOU CANT UPLOAD MULTIPLE VIDEOS ON TUMBLR????)

3: Flip phones (cat s22, at&t cingular IV, Q5)

if i dont have my camera when im out and about ill usually just use my phone or my bfs, my bf has a cat s22 which looks like this

my old phone was a at&t cingular iv, i didnt take many photos on it and she fukin dead now but here is an example

then finally my current flip phone which is a q5

4: Polaroid ISO48, i just got this baby this summer and im in love with her

5: Flip video pure digital, if im gonna be vlogging or some shiz i use her bc shes sooo easy to use. she does not take photosd shes only a video camera

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8fm1tbK/

if you want me to go into detail about any of them please let me know, if you also want to know what programs i use for sounds and voice and editing and shit let me know too! all of these things are under 100 bucks if anything under 50 im pretty sure, i hate high quality expensive shit
