In a far away Parallel Time, where right is wrong, and yes is no, and up is down - Addison Powell won an Emmy for his performances as Dr. Eric Lang.

one thing I really do not like about the live action avatar so far (and tbf there are. quite a few things) is that the philosophy behind the different bending styles doesn't seem differentiated enough. I don't really like that aang keeps giving katara advice about how to waterbend when he's not even done any waterbending himself at this point. obviously there are similarities between the styles, and aang having airbended before does give him an advantage, but one of the strengths of the og avatar cartoon is how each style of bending has it's own philosophy and mindset attached to it. the avatar finds balance not just because they have different powers, but because they have to master the perspectives and philosophies and techniques associated with those powers. you can't just transplant airbending technique onto waterbending technique and expect great success

they missed the opportunity for this kind of worldbuilding in the first episode too. in the cartoon, Iroh criticises Zuko's technique and tells him that power in firebending comes from the breath and not the muscle. in the live action, he just compliments his abilities. it's a small detail to lose overall, but it feels so crucial to elevating the magic system into something more than just cool element powers

I do also feel that, visually, the formations for the bending styles don't feel different enough. they are so distinct in the original cartoon that most fans could probably tell if a character was airbending, waterbending, earthbending or firebending without even needing to to see any elemental effects. there is some differentiation in the live action but it doesn't feel as strong

#the live action series is not as bad as it could've been but it's not good either #the acting is pretty poor overall and the cgi is bad for how insanely high budget this show was #they've also taken all of Katara's fiery personality away and I'm not a fan of that at all #sokka feels slightly toned down but accurate. I'm mostly okay with that #but removing his sexism was a dumb move imo. they could've toned it down and made it feel a bit less hammy but he should've still had it #avatar #the last airbender #avatar live action

Well what a weekend that was… an unseen and unexpected cameo courtesy of @librawritesstuff and all new secret squirrel candid pics from @season-77

In honour of the new Oracle cameo shot I figured this had to be my Moustache Monday shot…

I genuinely hope @too-antigonish is right and he wandered around the set twirling the ends of the tache like Hercules Poirot…

#shaun evans #itv endeavour #endeavour morse #but a cameo appearance #with a handlebar moustache #and a very hammy acting turn #moustache mondays #morsetache Mondays #that tache though #I love that he did this #and the other cameo #I wonder how many more there are #I’ll need to rewatch the whole show again #and study it closely #just in case #honestly the sacrifices I make #you know.. for science #definitely science #hot damn evans

Peak Tokusatsu. Anno understands Kamen Riders.

#shin kamen rider #it's so good #and not just as a kamen rider flick #the acting was surprisingly good... nothing too hammy or over-the-top

They weren't lying, those Re: Dracula wedding vows can Make Me Cry Until I Feel Sick

It's just. Mina's love for Jonathan, the way he pledges his life to her and she thinks he's still delirious when he is in fact saying he's gone through hell and he'd do it again, all for Mina. The way that when he flung himself from Castle Dracula, he wanted to think only of Mina, and said his goodbyes to her more than he did anybody else in his life, more than even his father figure.

And she doesn't yet know the extent of it, but she feels the very same way for him, and the fact that later in the story she goes through the same hell Jonathan went through to protect him, and for what Dracula does to Mina, Jonathan intends to kill the thing he was previously unable to kill for his own sake, and pledges to follow Mina into hell because he loves her. She's finally his wife, and he's her husband, and they want so badly to move forwards. Imagine how they must feel. Mina thought Jonathan had died and that she'd lost him forever, and Jonathan thought he would die in Castle Dracula and never see Mina again. But Jonathan survived, and now their fears are all swept away because the thing they most want in life is eachother, and now they have it.

Love is real in this Chili's tonight. Pure, flawless love, and I am shaking and crying. I wish that Lucy, who is so unbelievably sweet and kind-hearted, could have the same luck that Jonathan and Mina had, and that her life with Arthur would be filled with the kind of love, joy, peace and devotion the Harkers find in each other, and I am devastated to know that the rest of Lucy's life is going to be torturous at best.

#bug barks #dracula #re: dracula #this is the first time I've ever listened to/read the original Dracula and I wish I had listened sooner #the voice acting is phenomenal #and the story itself is so much better than I could've ever imagined #I have to say Seward and Renfield are my favorite part #whenever I hear the medical malpractice warning I sit and cross my legs and giggle because I'm about to listen to Seward #scratch his head about Renfield while Renfield does his own thing. A Kitten!! A little sleek PLAYFUL Kitten that I can Play with and Teach. #And Feed. And Feed. And Feed. #I wish my thoughts were more coherent here but I am ACTUALLY crying as I type this and keep having to wipe the screen free of tears to #continue typing. it just all clicked for me how deeply Jonathan and Mina love eachother right then #bravo to Mina's VA #show stopping performance. I will never ever get over it #Isabel Adomakoh Young is genuinely like. I implore every single one of my mutuals with even a passing interest in horror to give Re: #Dracula a chance. it's So Good #every single VA gives it their all but it's not Hammy in the slightest. it's refreshing and moving. give it a try y'all ;0;

#furina #genshin impact #hydro archon #Had a dream soon after act 4 started where Furina was an old lady but was acting like her usual hammy self #started to sketch what she looked like bc it was a cool old lady design...then after act 4 ended realized this could be a reality #so finished the sketch

you can talk about whether a character "deserved" or "earned" their redemption arc and whether it serves the narrative or whatever until the cows come home but at the end of the day it all comes back to this: is the character more or less enjoyable now that they're redeemed?

#thunder rambles #bc like lilith is boring as FUCK post-redemption. i personally like adam (sex ed) more as a minor antagonist than i do as a minor protag #but like. anya btvs for instance. once she switches sides she hardly changes at ALL it just means u get more of her cuz shes in the #main cast!! #and that RULES bc anya is the BEST #all that matters is whether you enjoy the character more now that theyve undergone their character arc. thats literally. the way it works. #and! enjoyment can be hindered if said character either continues to act shitty or asks for kindness from people they have no right to do #that to! #if that makes sense #basically dont push the forgive your abusers thing. thats a valid reason to not enjoy a character post-redemption (looking @ u spuffy) #anyway what was my point #oh yeah this is why im so against redemption for chloe bourgeois. bc unless she goes on a full alexis rose character arc #shes never gna be more enjoyable as a permanent protag as she is as an antagonist #and like even then alexis was never as cruel as chloe #and chloe's cruelty can be rly hammy and dramatic and its part of what makes her a good antagonist. #yeah. #also tom's redemption arc in svtfoe is less of a redemption and more a soft rewrite of his character to be a viable love interest #and it works #bc i love his dumbass #bottom line is: is it serving the narrative? nah dude is it serving ME?

Omg want to watch Eva with me/hj

I've been wanting to rewatch it actually

omg yes. i only got to like episode 6? ish? bc i was watching it one night where my chest hurt so bad i couldn't sleep

#i love eva. pls watch the og dub if you watch it btw it's literally so hammy and silly i ADORE it #spike spencer my beloved in terms of voice acting

[idiealotdontworry]

every time i see pokemon fans pushing for voice acted cutscenes i wilt and die because i don't think they know what hell they're asking to be unleashed upon us. do you seriously want shitty hammy awfully directed voice lines in your pokemon game. with probably no option to hear the original JP voices. really. really

these poor people are barely given enough time to make the damn things exist at all and you want voice acting thrown into that fire? because you can say all you want that you'd want the workers to get better treatment first but we all know Nintendo would disregard that and just push for voice acting anyways

it extra bothers me because i don't see anyone say this except for when they complain that "the subtitles in the cutscenes are so annoying" fuck you actually i need my subtitles. what if i hit you with a bus. what if you gave every disabled person $500

#this is probably just me being spoiled by kingdom hearts tho because they have voice acting AND subtitles #and as funny or hammy as the voice acting there can be sometimes i never feel like it's genuinely Bad #probably because it's a disney property tho and they know how weird it would be feel to have literal professional disney voice actors #and then have some generic awfully stilted voice for their protag or something #not all the voice acting in KH is incredible but my point is that unfortunately i know for a fact that pokemon would just do it worse #like no justice at all #they already technically added voice acting for pikachu and eevee #by replacing their cries w the anime voices in some of the games and look at how well that went #(<- fucking hates it)

Sir Rauth is yet another snw queer icon

#snw #strange new worlds #captain pike #dsfklkflsdfmdngkfsl this might be Controversial but #he's queer coded ok #also im in love with anson mount #absolutely losing my mind over #how he goes from being his Boy Scout self to #just. this conniving evil little gremlin man #WOW #what range #all the hand slapping and fake crying and trembling just #woow #in the ready room they talked about how all the actors kept breaking Solely because of how incredibly hammy he was #edit since people on this hellsite like to take everything seriously: this was mostly a joke made so that I had an excuse to gush #about anson's acting skills #if u take it seriously and consider this to be some kind of Affront to the other queer characters on snw #iim sorry I can't help u ur just an idiot

Gordeau must be having it rough. Not only his friend is dead, he's a victim of toxic masculinity, but he's also french

honestly tho. AND yuzu is insulting his belly button. what if it gets cold in the hollow night he literally just doesnt bring a shirt. like dude pick ONE struggle not 12. WHILE gay, might i add.

#cawing #at age 6 i was born without a face #uniposting #hes so fucking funny i love him. okay mr harvester of greed #not to mention the weird cryptic bullshit he says all the time #i love how hammy unib characters are at all times and how unabashedly they do it. 0 self awareness about how corny it is #its just fun! nobody ever really calls anyone else out on being cryptic and edgy and its fucking hilarious i love them all #eltnum isnt even terribly out of place even tho she acts weird all the time cause people are just Like That in the hollow night.

Been rewatching season 2. I keep getting swindled by this damn show

#here is how it always starts: I watch one episode #i go: ho ho! it is so silly that this is the program I was passionately in love with for so many years #see how the acting is hammy and the scripts hokey #see how you have moved beyond this #then I wake up two days and 24 episodes later and I’m covered in crumbs #god. do I love this stupid men crying program

[wiiwarechronicles]

Sniffles. Nothing will ever be the first nightmare stream again. NOTHING.

#the second one was objectively better but I like the first because I think it’s funnier and creepier #and also because c fundys insane boy rambles make ME insane #like FUCK YOUUUU fuckoff. die #he was usually a pretty repressed hand wavey character and it makes me NUTS it took him getting trapped in a loop #to start going off to himself about how UNLOVED he felt #he makes me so sad he’s unloved . oh he feels so so unloved and uncared for and unappreciated #i lose my mindthinking about him sensing another version of himself and seeing it alone and screaming about it #boy :( #i also just love his acting ITS SO HAMMY but it’s fun #i can excuse the being a little too transparent at times in the context of the stream #but the screaming and verbal denial and the giggling and backing away or doing things over and over I LOVE IT #ya my favorite psychological horror film is in Minecraft what of it.. #maidsmess
