here is the post where the future will see how absolutely UNDERRATED hiroyuki sanada is.
He should've been famous or at least as recognized like 10 or 20 years ago.
This man was in two marvel movies, one was in X Men with Hugh Jackman, and one in Endgame but his character was there to be killed by Hawkeye but still. Go sword fighting!!
He was also in Rush Hour(aka the most badass and iconic movie trilogy ever) with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. Also in a movie w Brad Pitt (Bullet Train), in two movies w Keanu Reeves (47 Ronin, John Wick), ALSO w Tom Cruise (The Last Samurai and if I'm not mistaken there's one more but I forgot), he was also in a movie w Jake Gyllenhaal and Ryan Reynolds(Life).
He deserved all those roles, and he was in so so many big movies, yet he is still so underrated. Man is 60 years old, moving and swinging his sword faster than anyone his age, trust me I'm not even 20 and I'm having back pains just by standing for 30 minutes. A phenomenal actor, very handsome, amazing chemistry with all of the actors he works with, also very sweet and humble. No controversies or dramas.

I know I said tomorrow, @juudaimes-true-form, but I couldn't sleep anyway, so I did it now! Thanks so much for the three-word prompt: Jackie, Casey, Postcard. I did have to add Tobias to go in the direction I wanted to with this; I hope you don't mind. 😊
Book: Open Heart (Post Series) Featuring: Tobias x Casey Carrick, Jackie Varma Rating: Teen Words: 1,040 Summary: Casey & Jackie are spending a Sunday afternoon together; it's just like their roomie days - but then again, it's not. A/N: For those unfamiliar with my Tobias x Casey HC - Tobias comes from an extremely wealthy background on his father's side, whereas Casey's family really struggled financially. Per canon, Jackie had a childhood more in line with Casey's. This story takes place Post Book 3, about a year after their daughter's birth. @choicesjanuary2024 Day 7 - Reflection
Tumblr media
It was a quiet Sunday afternoon, and it felt like old times. Casey and Jackie were lounging on the couch with a spread of snacks that both would have advised patients against eating laid out before them. That and wine... copious amounts of wine. They spent an hour catching up and laughing, and then they began the painful process of selecting a movie. They had to resort to a flip of a coin, and Jackie groaned when Casey's choices won. Another freaking romcom. Yep, it was just like old times... until a rustling noise from the corner of the room served as a reminder. It wasn't old times, Casey had a husband now.
"Babe," she said, stretching her neck over the couch. "Whatcha doing?"
"I told you, I'm going to go through my storage boxes in the basement. I want to make that area into a play space for Samantha, so I need to clear it out."
"12.5 rooms in this townhome, and you choose to do that in the one we're in?" Jackie quipped.
Tobias replied with a bright grin. "Aw, Jackie... you know I can never stay far away from you. Besides, I thought you might want to see some of my childhood memorabilia."
Jackie rolled her eyes as Casey assured him she'd love to see his trinkets, but they were watching a movie right now. Jackie's eyes flicked toward the screen, and she realized she found her salvation. One last look at Sandra Bullock, and she grabbed the remote.
"You know what, Tobias, this is the perfect opportunity to get to know you better!" She smiled.
"You see!" Tobias replied enthusiastically. "You see Casey! Jackie's making a valiant effort here!"
"Tobias," Casey sighed. "She’s trying to get out of watching The Proposal again.”
Tobias leaned in toward Jackie with a smirk. “Shit, we can bond over that, too.”  
Casey threw a pillow his way. “I can hear you! So, now that you two have interrupted my movie I’ll never know what happened to Sandra and Ryan....”
“Like you haven't seen this twenty times,” Jackie injected.
“... as I was saying, since you interrupted my movie, let’s see what you’ve got there.”
“Well, there’s this,” he grinned, holding up a small, green felt teddy bear that had seen better days.
“Please tell me that has sentimental value," Jackie said, tossing the object to Casey. "Because if it doesn't, and that’s what you’ve chosen to hold on to, I'm going to judge you."
“It does! That’s the first stuffed animal anyone ever won for me at a carnival.”
“Oh, really!” Casey teased. “And who won this for you, dear?”
Tobias sat back, cupping his hands behind his head. “Annabelle Worthington. We were in fifth grade.”
“Wait, shouldn’t you have won it for her?” Jackie mocked.
“We don’t do that sexist shit in this house, Jackie. Besides, I offered to let her keep it, and she said no. I was a hot commodity even then, ladies!"
Both of the women groaned and grabbed their glasses of wine.
“You know, I think we should go back to the movie,” Jackie suggested. “It may be better than your husband.”
Jackie and Casey’s conversation turned back to a patient as Tobias continued to scavenge through the box, soon after, he interrupted them once more.
“Holy shit! Look at this!” He gushed. “I haven’t seen this in forever.”
“What is it?” Casey asked.
Tobias handed them a stack of old postcards and stood over their shoulders to tell them about each one.
“That's when we went to Disney World when I was five. My brother wasn’t around yet, so I got all the attention.”
“Ah, so that's where it began,” Casey jested.
Ignoring her, Tobias tapped on the postcard Jackie was holding.
“And that’s Hawaii. We went to that resort every year. My parents made it a holiday tradition to avoid half our relatives,” he chuckled. “I didn’t realize that last part until I was older.”
“Where is this one from?” Casey asked. 
“That’s Tanzania,” he said enthusiastically. “When we went on a safari for my twelfth birthday! Damn, I have to go find the pictures from that trip!”
After a few more, Tobias gathered the cards and tucked them away in the box. “So what about you guys? Do you have any postcards from your vacation spots growing up?”
Casey and Jackie exchanged a look, eyes glimmering mischievously, they knew what they were about to do.
“Well, I don’t know?” Casey hummed. “But I'll call my mother. I’m sure she saved some. They're probably tucked away in our summer home. What about you, Jackie?”
“Me? Nah, they couldn't possibly be in any of our homes. After all, there were too many! But they may be in our family archives."
“All right...” Tobias said, slightly abashed. But they weren't done with him yet.
“Where did you go most frequently?” Casey asked.
“Me? Usually, the water park... you know... I was lucky because it was right down the street from me. It was open every summer, well... until the firefighters arrived and insisted on recapping the hydrants. Then all the fun was over."
“Oh, yes! We had a waterpark like that in Philly, too! Did you ever go to that location?”
“Nope, can’t say I did! But there was that special year when we went camping... to rough it.”
“Really, and where did you go? The Adirondacks? Jackson Hole?"
“My living room... the gas and electricity was shut off for a few days... that's why we were roughing it.”
"Damn! And you don't have a postcard of that?"
“All right, all right!” Tobias insisted. “I'm sorry. Sometimes, I forget that everyone wasn't an entitled ass like I was."
“Was?” Jackie smirked.
“Really, I’m sorry. I'm an idiot."
“Yeah," Casey grinned, reaching over to pat his but. "But you’re a cute idiot."
“Speak for yourself on that!" Jackie stated as she stuffed Cheeto in her mouth.
“Will you forgive me if I make you ladies homemade pizza for dinner?"
“That would be a start,” Casey nodded. “If you go get us ice cream for dessert, I think I can let it go.”
“Speak for yourself,” Jackie kidded. “I’m not forgiving him until he takes me to Tanzania!”
Tobias scurried out of the room, and Casey flipped the TV back on to Jackie’s great disappointment.
“You know, he’s really not an ass,” Casey insisted. “But every now and then, he forgets we weren’t all to the manor born.”
“Oh, I know,” Jackie shrugged. “But I hope he says something stupid like that every time I come over."
“Really? Why?”
“Because the man makes a great homemade pizza."
Thanks so much for reading! :)

Why the movie villain’s henchmen always wear masks
One of those “can’t unsee it” things about modern action movies is the fact that, overwhelmingly, the generic bad guys wear face-concealing masks, particularly in mid-budget direct-to-Netflix action movies. (My definition of “mid budget” here also includes “high budget” Netflix action movies where the bulk of the budget was clearly spent hiring Ryan Reynolds.)
Tumblr media
I dislike this for many reasons, but high among them is that it deprives the stunt actors of the opportunity to act with their faces.
For contrast, watch a Jackie Chan movie: a huge part of the fun of Jackie Chan action scenes is the incredibly human reactions that people have when delivering (or taking) punches. When the hero is punching bad guys, it’s not just about the punch itself, but the reaction of the guy who’s getting punched! When someone gets kicked in the face or takes fist to the stomach, I want to see him react with obvious pain!
Tumblr media
Even if the stunt actors aren’t amazingly emotive actors, it’s nice when all of the bad guys (even the “generic”) ones are visually distinctive. For one thing, it makes it easier to tell the “generic” characters straight from each other -- it’s simply harder to keep track of the action when the hero is fighting five bad guys who are all basically identical. You can try to get around this by giving the bad guys face-concealing helmets that are visually distinctive, though doesn’t make a ton of sense from a lore perspective, considering the entire point of a uniform is.  (Functional uniforms are, by their very nature, and by definition, designed to be uniform. It doesn’t make sense for the Galactic Empire to come up with unique helmets for each individual stormtrooper.)
But apart from the practical issues that come from all of the mooks being indistinct human-shaped blobs, there’s just the fact that as a human, I am  deeply biologically hardwired to find human faces compelling.  Human faces and bodies can be so delightfully idiosyncratic -- no two people look the same!
Tumblr media
And therein lies the problem for the moviemakers.  Because if you wish to show dozens of unique human faces, then you need to have dozens of unique human faces.
If all they need to do is be excited faces in a crowd, then you can get extras. But if your movie is about a protagonist delivering bespoke acts of violence to dozens of generic bad guys, then those bad guys have to be played by stunt actors. And if you show us the stunt actors’ faces, audiences will start to notice when you start reusing stunt actors. (Even if we wouldn’t consciously register the fact that Chris Hemsworth is punching the same guy he just killed five minutes ago in a different action scene, our neural circuitry is really good at noticing familiar human faces. As Mike Stoklasa is fond of saying, “You may not have noticed it, but your brain did.”)
So, if you only have half a dozen stunt actors, but the movie calls for dozens of bad guys getting punched or stabbed or shot, then you have to cover their faces.
Realizing this has given me a greater appreciation for movies of this genre that don’t hide the actor’s faces. For example, Nobody is perfectly willing to show us the bad guy’s faces as they get punched, shot, and knocked around, which is great, because it’s a movie that is specifically about the consequences and brutality of violence.
Tumblr media
Nobody does have one scene where the bad guys’ faces are covered -- they wear ski masks during the home invasion scene, because it makes narrative sense for them to do so. But ski masks still allow them to act with their faces during the intense moments! You get to see the fear in this guy’s eyes in the moment he realizes what’s about to happen to him.
Tumblr media
Nobody’s credits list a whopping 35 names as “stunt performers.” (And that’s not including the actors credited as “stunt double.”)
For comparison, The Adam Project has 9 credited stunt actors. No surprise, then, that all the “generic bad guys” wear helmets. (Not that they get to do much “stunt” work in the moments before they get vaporized into flashing bloodless PG-13 approved CGI dust. Not only does the movie not let you see bad guys’ faces react after they get shot, but it doesn’t even want to let you watch their bodies collapse to the ground.)
Tumblr media
By the way, since it’s the measuring stick that all movies get measured against these days, John Wick credits 59 stunt players. (Again, this is separate and in addition to the tally of “stunt doubles,” which is a different credit.)  The John Wick sequels each credit around a hundred stunt performers (John Wick 2 credits 103, John Wick 3 credits 94, John Wick 4 credits 100.)
The decision to cover everyone’s heads with face-concealing helmets can be a stylistic choice -- the Star Wars franchise showcases many of these, including of course the iconic stormtrooper, among many others. However, more and more, it feels like this not a creative design choice, but a practical one.
Movies are a product of human labor and talent, and that costs money. Like a lot of the things involved in making a good movie, hiring a lot of different stunt actors isn’t easy. But I always appreciate the movies that are willing to make the effort, because when audiences see it on screen, they can tell the difference.

Bfr has been making me watch all of the big mainstream movies I've somehow missed which is so funny and bad. We watched Good Will Hunting, Saving Private Ryan, Finding Forrester, The Green Mile, Jackie Brown, True Lies, The Negotiator, Heat, Trainspotting, Shawshank Redemption, Training Day, and today was Shrek. Shrek was by far my favorite of all of these.

Headcanon boxer names part 2! Electric boogaloo! (Snes Edition)
Explanations for the meaning and some history behind their names and stage names included too!
Gabby Jay: Gabrielle Eugène Jay
Gabrielle is the french feminine form of Gabriel, meaning "God is my hero". Eugène is the french form of Eugenius (Eugene in English), meaning 'Well born". Jay is an English name coming from founding father John Jay, whose surname derived from the jaybird.
Gabby was named after his aunt, Gabrielle Eugénie Jay. Because she cared for him so much after he transitioned, as a way to continue honoring her after her death, he chose to only masculinize his middle name and change his surname to Jay.
His original surname, Durand, means stubborn.
Gabby is cool with any spelling or nickname he's given. This has led to many of the younger boxers calling him 'Gibby' (Although the shortening is incorrect).
Piston Hurricane: Raúl Palomo-Aguado
Raúl is the Spanish form of Radulf, which comes from Ráðúlfr, meaning "Wisdom wolf". Palomo means "pigeon", from Latin palumbes. Aguado is derived from Spanish agua meaning "water".
A lot of people consider his first name to be 'fancy' which he doesn't understand whatsoever.
The 'Piston' in his stage name comes from his interest in cars- particularly the unique car culture of his home country.
If you call him Ralph, he'll punch you.
Bob Charlie: Robert Stuart Charlie
Robert comes from the Germanic name Hrodebert meaning "bright fame". Stuart comes from the Scottish occupational name Steward, derived from Old English stig "house" and weard "guard". Charlie comes from Charles, the French and English from of the Latin name Carolus, meaning 'man'.
Bob doesn't like his full name very much- he thinks it's stiff and formal. He shortens it whenever and wherever he can.
He goes by "Stu" just as much as Bob.
In an Ironic twist, "Charlie" isn't short for anything, that;s just his last name lol.
Dragon Chan: Hejian (A.K.A Dagon) Cheung
Heijan comes from the characters 河 and 健, which mean "River" and "Strong, healthy" respectively. Cheung is a Cantonese version of Zhang, meaning "stretch, extend", a name given to bowmakers.
Heijan prefers to either have his name said as a single word, or to go by 'Dagon", a name he picked up from a friend's DnD campaign.
He was suprised to learn the name Dagon actually comes form HP Lovecraft. Knowing it's the name of an eldritch god makes it 600x cooler for him.
Dragon got his stage name from tourists mishearing "Dagon" ans "Dragon", he stuck with it as his name means 'strong river', which Chinese dragons are associated with. 'Chan' just comes from his admiration of Jackie Chan and Kung fu movies in general.
Masked Muscle: Antonio Carrillo-Maldonado
Antonio is the Spanish and Italian form of Antonius, which has no known meaning. Carrillo means "cheek, jaw" in Spanish. Maldonado comes from a nickname meaning "badly given, ill-favoured" in Spanish.
He doesn't mind the name Tony, but prefers to be called Antonio.
Most of the time, he only writes his last name down as Maldonado.
Every time he meets someone else with the same name, he takes them out for drinks.
Aran Ryan: Airyn O’Ryan
Airyn is a misspelling of Aaron, which comes from the Hebrew name Aharon which doesn't have a known origin, though common theories state it means "High mountain" or "Exhaled". O'Ryan is anglicized from Ó Riain, meaning "Descended from the little King".
Airyn was bullied for the spelling of his name, to the point where he used to hate his name, instead wishing he'd been named something else.
If he's grateful for one thing, it's that he never got a middle name. His mum told him that had she given him one, it would've been after his father's name Bartholomew. Bullet dodged.
His stage name "Aran Ryan" was a mistake by the WVBA. Although he pointed out that His name wasn't written down correctly, it never got fixed and Airyn decided to ignore it.
Heike Kagero: Hisoka Shiraishi
Hisoka is a name and word that literally means "Reserved, Secretive" in Japanese. Shiraishi is from Japanese shira meaning "white" and ishi meaning "stone".
Hisoka was named after Ayaka Hibiki's stage name.
Whenever he makes Narcis mad, Narcis calls him His-sock-uh. Hisoka has embraced this as a nickname.
They got their stage name from the tale of Heike, the name Heike meaning "House of Tiara" and Kagerō the Japanese word for 'heat haze' and 'mayfly'
Mad Clown: Otello Sordi
Otello is the Italian version of Othello, which has no known meaning. Sordi comes from sordo meaning "deaf" in Italian.
Otello adores his name and is quite proud to show it off.
Funnily enough, being named Otello is what got him into opera, as Otello is also the name of an opera based on the play by Shakespeare.
Mad Clown was meant to be a placeholder name, but he ended up keeping it around long enough that it stuck. He mildly regrets it.
Narcis Prince: Narcissus Aiolos Helios Prince
Narcissus is the Latinized form of Greek Narkissos, possibly derived from narke meaning "sleep, numbness". Aiolos means "quick-moving, nimble" in Greek. Helios means "sun" in Greek. Prince comes from a nickname from Middle English, Old French prince (Latin princeps).
Narcis loathes his name and finds it extremely pretentious. His entire family has a naming convention after Greek words, particularly mythology.
The Name Narcis itself is a Catlan variant of Narcissus and the Catlan name for the Narcissus flower, which makes it more tolerable for Narcis.
If he were to change his name, he'd choose Živan, which is a slovak name meaning living/alive.
Hoy Quarlow: Bai-Wei Zhu
Bai-Wei comes from the characters 百 and 伟 meaning 'One hundred" and "extraordinary" respectively. Zhu means "Vermillion red".
Bai tends to only go by the first part of his name, unless around family or akin to family, who call him Wei Wei.
All of his siblings share the second half of their name "Wei", which isn't an uncommon practice for siblings in Chinese culture.
The name 'Hoy Quarlow' means twice-cooked pork, one of his favorite foods.
Rick Bruiser: Richolas Nadford Broesder
Richolas and Nadford are misspellings of the names Nicholas and Radford respectively. Broesder has no meaning or clear origin I could find.
Rick wasn't expected, so his parents panicked and named him... that.
Rick never found his name odd. Not until high school when a teacher read his full name aloud and asked who the fuck would name their kid that.
Though Rick lieks the name Broesder, he often struggles to spell it. This is why he tends to write his name as Rick Bruiser more often.
Nick Bruiser: Nicholas Radford Broesder
Nicolas comes from the Greek name Nikolaos meaning "victory of the people". Radford comes from many English place names, whose meanings vary from Old English read "red" + ford "ford" to a derivative of Old English ridan "to ride", with the meaning "ford that can be crossed on horseback". Broesder has no meaning or clear origin that I could find.
The brother's parent's also have names ending in -ick, Vick and Dick Broesder.
Nick is insistent that Radford is also the source of the word 'radical', no one has managed to change his mind yet.
Nick doesn't like his surname much, which is why him and Rick started calling themselves 'Bruiser'
Peter Punch/Birdie: Peter Andrew Jaskólsk
Peter derives from the Greek word Petros meaning stone. Andrew comes from the Greek name Andreas, meaning "Manly". Jaskólski is a Polish place name shared by many towns, coming from the name for swallows jaskółka.
In boxing, he uses the name 'peter punch', which his mom came up with.
He also goes by 'Birdie' which comes from the fact that when he whistles, he sounds like a bird.
Peter was born with Jewish ancestry but wasn't very close to Jewish culture. As he gets older and more connected, however, he ends up adopting the Hebrew name Yaron ben Avraham v'Sarah

Hey, so I saw your post about Quiet on set from a few days ago and it just rubbed me the wrong way. I tried to write a comment a bunch of times but articulating this point is weirdly stressful and kind of nit-picky. This is in no way an attack, I just want to engage in a discussion about it, and maybe understand your point better.
I disagree with a fair amount of what was said about censorship, censorship and age recommendations are at the baseline guidelines that are there to help inform parents. And what it seemed like you may have wanted to acknowledge is that children and parents have a choice in what they watch. (Is that what you meant about the Bluey comment?)
The best way for me to state my disagreement is with the line about dog food, "both a man and a dog can eat dog food". It implies that anything goes and the issue is with puritanical censorship; but if we take the analogy further the implications are different. Starting with the fact that dog food is not safe for human consumption, it is processed at a different standard and the quality and regulations for it are different from that of our food. Sure you can eat dog food in a pinch but you are running the risk of becoming quite ill, even if the risk is slim. So if we apply that to what you were talking about: it is dangerous to kids who are in the industry and can negatively impact the children who are consuming those pieces of media. I will agree its definitely much worse for the children in the show, who are forced to act out sexual innuendos because their job depended on it. But the logic about dog food is flawed and implies that its all okay. I don't know if that was the intention and I am inclined to believe it was not.
Thank you if you took the time to read this, and no pressure to respond
Look, someone Blazed the original post, which is both flattering and a little frustrating, because it means it went outside my little curated bubble and people are engaging with it who don't have Trusted Media Literacy Confirmed status. But I did say, straight up, that I wasn't for "anything goes in children's media," that there is a line that shouldn't be crossed, and that there was a big difference between slightly off-color wordplay (fingerprints/Finger Prince, how do you go from an A to a D?) and children performing veiled sex acts.
("I'm not talking about some of the outright fetishistic stuff, but simple wordplay in teen shows." "(Sex jokes acted out by adults /= sex jokes acted out by children)")
My concern was basically that, in their justified and understandable outrage over Schneider and his associates' actions, people would go overboard, throw the baby out with the bathwater, and declare war on anything that HINTED at adult content within children's media, such as a rather harmless puberty joke about bosoms in a show aimed at teens. Moral panic is a helluva drug.
Moreover, I believe that part of children's development is consuming media with more mature (but still appropriate) themes as they age. Sometimes even a little inappropriate. Ask most guys and they'll recall being taken to see R-rated action movies with their dads when they were twelve or so. Most women have fond memories of teen sleepovers where they watch movies like Coyote Ugly, Charlie's Angels, or Burlesque.
This is a natural part of growing up. The boys don't see something insane like Terrifier, they see something like Die Hard that's just a bit more intense than PG-13 (or Saving Private Ryan, which is kinda insane, but it's also historically edifying and also Spielberg is the man). And girls don't see something like Bible Black, they see something that's a bit raunchy, but overall harmless and fun.
I just think about this some because I have a lot of nieces and nephews, the oldest is six, and I'm going like "ooh, is she ready for Jackie Chan movies? Would Rumble In The Bronx be okay for her? There is that bit where they beat up Jackie pretty bad... BTAS might be too much for her, but The Brave And The Bold is really silly and lighthearted, she'll probably like that." And there's a lot of stuff that, on God, I am not showing her for a long, long time. I've hidden my Tales From The Crypt DVDs because just seeing the Cryptkeeper on the cover scares her. So I am not advocating for showing Texas Chainsaw Massacre to five-year-olds. I am saying that, by the time they're eighteen, they should be ready for Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and the way they get ready is to see the occasional Ghostbusters or Jurassic Park.

A B and G! For the ask meme :D
A - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.
omg so fucking many. Here's as many as my brain can think of rapid fire from my ao3 list
Hankconvin & hankvin1700 and any iterations of the DBH boys,
Steddiegrove and any mix of the Stranger Things dumbo boys (Steve Eddie Billy, sometimes jonathan)
Drarry always-JK is a CUNT.
Roy/Jamie/Keeley, Roy/Jamie, Ted/Trent, Keeley/Rebecca, Roy/Trent 👀 (may the fic finish itself soon) from Ted Lasso
Peter Parker/Eddie Brock/Venom, Peter Parker/Harry Osborn, Peter Parker/Wade Wilson, Peter Parker/Matt Murdock, Petercest, Starker, Peter Parker/Anyone (Andrew!Peter was the one I grew up with <3 I love him with pretty much anyone and he's got so much potential for tragic backstory with all of them. I love love Tom's too :D he's such a cutie and Tom is also a really incredible human being and actor. Hard to choose a fav Peter when every one I've seen has been amazing!)
John Bender/Andrew Clark from the breakfast club. I do love me some enemies to lovers and this fucking movie. Enough I wrote 54k+ of fanfiction for it
Wincest, Sam/Dean Winchester- Sorry not sorry, I clearly labeled to dove in the freezer DO NOT EAT!
Marty/Rust-True Detective. BRING ON THE DYSFUNCTION
Izzy/Blackbeard, Steddyhands, blacksteade, teal oranges from OFMD
Nick/Schmidt from New Girl
El/Q from Magicians
Ryan/Jim from the US The Office
Johnlock, Hilson, any version of John Watson and Sherlock Holmes thats gay
B - A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.
oh man, I feel like this is a rarepair question. Let me check the ol' archive....
hahahahaha well this is gonna give away more about me than I probs want, but we got some Norman/Peter Parker in here, and Swayze and Sam Elliots characters in Road House👀🌶️
oh man also my ST mutuals got me allll into Robin/Heather, I can't stop thinking about them and Heather and Billy being cunty platonic bffs
Ooooo spanish Jackie/Jim 😍& Izzy/Lucius from OFMD
I also guess I ship Ted and Rebecca now. I didn't until that last fucking episode and I saw all four of them in her house and I went. OH. Okay yeah I get it now.
G - Have you ever had an OTP? If so, do you remember your first one? Who was in it?
oh yeah hahaha I probably started fan shipping in my early teens and it was either Draco/Harry or Max/Jude from Across the universe <3
thanks for the asks, they were really fun!

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022)
Tonight, Ryan, Stephanie and I watched The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, I can’t accurately express how great this movie is. I have been saying it for some time now that people who think Nick Cage topped out around The Rock (1996), Gone in 60 Seconds (2000), Lord Of War (2005) or Conair (1997) are wrong. I would say that Nick Cage has just hit is stride in the last 10 years with movies like PIG (2021), Outcast (2014), Rage (2014), Color Out of Space (2019), and my new Favorite Nick Cage movie The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022). Nice Cage was at the top of his craft in this move, there is no doubt about that, but the pairing with Padro Pascal knocked this movie out of the freaking cinematic park. There is a scene where Nick and Padro are on LSD and think people are watching them. Pedro has to fake a laugh to look at some people casually but slyly, I was laughing so hard I almost pissed myself. Honestly, I think if Pedro and Nick started doing those buddy comedies like Mel Gibson and Danny Glover, Jacky Chan and Chris Tucker, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, and of course Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte they would be the next top tier duo. If you have not seen this cinematic gem you should make a date and give it a watch, you won’t be disappointed, if you are watch it again, because you were wrong.
