the cowboy bebop crew would have loved the solar eclipse

#cowboy bebop #I know they live in space and they have probably been ~cooler~ things but they would made it a day! #ed hacks some sort of telescope or satellite to get a more hd view #jet stresses the point of NOT looking directly at the sun and makes sure everyone has the special glasses or whatever #maybe faye pretends to not care but she does!! #probably looks up fun eclipse facts #spike lounges in his eclipse glasses with a cigarette…probably falls asleep #ein is just happy to be there #of course ein gets glasses too

I watched the live action atla series and, looks like a very unpopular opinion in the sea of people whining and complaining about it, but I enjoyed it. I think they did a pretty good job with what they had and their limitations. the actors all did a good job and you can tell they enjoyed what they were doing and have a big respect for the show and their characters.

i'll let you in on the secret if how to enjoying something:

it's not setting high expectations or prejudging things. i'm a master of having low expectations and keeping an open mind so that I can enjoy things in life better. I went into this knowing for a fact that it would not match with the animated series. I knew there was no comparison at all. yes, there were some small bits I thought here and there that they shouldn't have cut out and could have fit if they tried,or things they could have done differently, which is natural to think when watching anything really, but I knew there's no point letting those overshadow the entire thing. if you care so much about little things, go produce your own series and make it perfect!

I went into it thinking of it as it's own thing. I asked myself is this enjoyable if I started watching without having seen the animation? without having the knowledge I do have? turns out it was enjoyable enough on its own. yes, seeing the animation helps fill in some of those gaps they skipped, and I understand why people are upset about things nit being added, but overall, it's a good stand alone if you dont sit and compare and nitpick the whole time.

if you don't go into it thinking "this is going to suck! i'm going to find every flaw! live actions always ruin things I love! I want it to match the animation 1:1! etc" then you'll be able to enjoy it. but if you insist on watching it with that mindset, then of course you will hate it. having an open mind and separating the two like I did makes it more enjoyable! I was pleasantly surprised by it.

I knew this mindset helped, because I did it with another series that had a remake. if you know eureka seven, you'll know that there are a few too many spinoffs. what us fans want is a proper remake and/or a continuation with the characters we know and love. instead we got several movies that retell the story in less appealing ways, the manga that has a few major differences, and a spin off series that's supposed to act as a sequel apparently, but it was kinda awful. because I loved eureka seven so much, I highly judged all these spinoffs and hated them all.

but when hi-evolution came out, I was really in the mood for new eureka seven. the first movie was mostly reused footage from the series. but they added some new stuff. I decided to start watching those as if they are their own stand-alone instead of trying to compare and fit them together. i think these spinoffs are supposed to be different universes that don't compare to the original, and I overly judged them because it's not what I wanted it expected as a kid. I watched hi-evolution with this more open mindset, and guess what? I enjoyed it! I thought it was actually a pretty good stand alone! if I never saw the anime series, I would have enjoyed these movies. I separated them in my mind and enjoyed them as their own thing! this is an extremely unpopular opinion and I haven't seen any eureka seven fans say they liked them. they got the sawn treatment as all the other releases. everyone just wants new content related to the original anime, so that's what they insist of judging by.

back to atla, it may also help that it's been several years since i've seen the animation. BUT it is one i've seen multiple times and have pretty good memory of it, I think, even if it's not so fresh in my mind anymore. I consider myself a pretty big fan as well. it's my second favorite series after fullmetal alchemist. nothing has compared to fullmetal alchemist for me, but atla is pretty damn close. you could say nothing has compared to atla either. solid second place and has never wavered. eureka seven being solidly 3rd. orphan black is 4th.....and I saw something about a new spinoff with all new different characters coming soon...so i'll have to try to apply this same technique to that as well.

conclusion: if you go into something being judgemental, nitpicky, comparing every little thing to something else, and overall having extremely high expectations, of course you're setting it up to fail you. you're basically purposely making yourself dislike it. you decided ahead of time you were going to hate it, so you do. if you have an open mind, low expectations, and let it be it's own thing separate from the original, it may not be your favorite thing ever, but you can at least get some enjoyment or entertainment out of it! appreciate it for what it is, rather than judge it for what it's not. this is for most things in life, not just a series on netflix.

Tonight i dreamed that on day 10 Artemy got to take the papers from the army before the revolt and got wounded by the soldiers, he managed to reach Aglaya at the Cathedral and she sent someone to bring the papers to Block. Danil had to choose between stopping the courier and saving the Polyedron or take care of Artemy's wound before he' bleed out.

Now here's the thing: i woke up before getting to know what Danil chose to do and i am so pissed about it because i want to write a fanfic about it but have no idea if i want a wholesome enemies to lovers trope or an angsty metha farewell ending

#pathologic #pathologic 2 #pathologic classic hd #artemy burakh #danil dankovsky #my stupid dreams #i cant believe my brain would do this to me #now what do i do #write two endings #i mean yeah i could but #i want to set a tone #i tried getting back to sleep and it didn't work #i am so disappointed #a romantic ending sounds sweet but #how cool would be an ending were danil makes the ultimate sacrifice pouring someone's blood to save the only thing he cares about #also would he know everything is fake already or he still doesn't #and if he does would that impact him #making artemy live forever in the polyedron #i got too many thoughts about it

#not to be like...complainy but. #sometimes i think about all the gr8 ideas i had for j**p that i never wrote bc i was too scared bc that fandom was full of cops #like Good shit that was really really important to me on a personal level that never gets explored fuckin ANYWHERE #and now i just gotta mourn them bc none of the storylines translate to the fandoms where my brain Lives now #(they woulda worked for teen wolf tbh but my brain is so far past being able to write teen wolf fic it's not even funny lol) #and the obvious answer is 'write them now! the fandom's mostly dead and ppl will leave you alone!' #but i can't bc my brain does /not/ work like that unfortunately #once i'm past something i am Past it. i can only write for things that i spend roughly 85% of my waking hours thinking about lmao #that double-edged sword of ad/hd i guess #so now i just sit here. thinking about what coulda been. and being fucking Annoyed As Shit that ppl couldn't mind their own business <3 #.....fucking block me for this idc

theatre is always enhanced live, but i think stex has one of the more drastic quality differences between seeing a boot and seeing it live. like theres nothing like seeing the races, feeling the breeze when the actors zoom past, being able to catch small background interactions and tickovers!!!!

#:V #stex #take it from me this show is such an experience to see live #also because even with the most hd of boots theres some blurriness and weird lighting. you GOTTA see elektras shiny ass suit live. #and rustys shiny screws! #sorry im just really getting hyped about this show. cant wait till i see it again! #btw im manifesting opportunities for you all to see it live too

where's that quote that's like "when there's an angry man in your house there will always be an angry man in your house" bc......... yea

#my dad told my mom that we're spending too much money on home renovations and groceries and pet stuff and hd doesn't even fucking live with #and it still makes me so uneasy and nervous i feel so useless and lazy and terrible #like my therapist is trying to help me separate myself from that trauma and anxiety bc he isn't here #but it's so so hard

so, i caved in and signed up to fuji on demand to watch jnats in peace for once. to try things out i went to check out 2021 jnats, and when i scrolled down on that page, there's "titles viewed together" section, and the first on that list is.. banana fish. i'm fucking laughing, but also feel attacked somehow

#fuji why are taking it so personally with me i just came here #idk maybe my brain had melted while i tried to sing up and make a pay go through lmao FOD is such a pain in the ass i'll tell you what #but on the other hand: i just watched rondo and shoboe there and it was sooo strange! #idk for sure yet but it seems like they have higher frame rate? #maybe because i'm used to isu's shitty yt livestreams/ camerawork #but it looks almost uncanny #skater's body is in focus and sharp #movements are clean and clear like there's almost no motion blur #the footwork is so easy to see! #shoboe feels almost different #while it doesn't exactly look *high* res (there's only low and high option without numbers but it doesn't look full hd?) it is also so good #damn it's really hard to explain and i'm a bit too tired haha #i need to figure out frame rate thing so i could preserve this quality on record without going overboard #anyway #i hope my vpn speed will be enough to watch live #but at least i can watch it back if i need to without problem #for 1.5usd i'd say it's good

not me going to the gym and listening to fly octo fly-ebb & flow (kyoto mix) and getting emotional

YouTube keeps algorithmically suggesting movies with Ray Harryhausen stop motion effects to me. I've heard most of these titles since I was a child interested in special effects. I never expected to be able to watch most of these movies, much less so conveniently and in such quality. It's cool when life drops some small nice thing directly into your lap.

#these movies are 'free with ads' on YouTube #and if you have an adblocker these movies are free on YouTube #if you've ever been interested in that shit you can watch the jason and the argonauts skeleton battle frame-by-frame in HD #you can see the film grain #hugely influential effects work you can just go look at whenever #cant really speak to how well these movies have aged i havent gotten too deep into it #there looks to be a substantial and consistent amount of brownface going on in these movies #its 2/2 so far that's not great #you know what it might not be HD #but it was not something i even noticed you can see everything so clearly #i don't know at least for me some of the jank in executing these fantasy visuals was part of the charm #feels like a theatre production or a magic show or whatever #being able to feel the hand of the artist so to speak gives it more charm to me #i guess it helps that the fantastical stories sort of already are asking a lot of you suspension-of-disbelief-wise #in the same way that the inherent abstraction of theatre does for live performance #its making me wonder if i wouldnt have more fun trying to do stop motion than i would trying to learn new 3D animation tools

#i swear there's a version of spit it out that heavily obviously samples from metal too #but i can't find it anywhere. not even on my HD #like. that's the exact lead-in they have used live for spit it out before
