|Limp Bizkit's cover of "Billie Jean" (2009)|

#the way my eyebrow shot up seductively and chills that ran down my spine when Sam came in with that groovy bassline #and then when Wes came in with that iconic riff my soul left my body☠️ #and best believe John kept my foot tapping to the beat of his kickdrum #Loved hearing Lee's scratches mixed throughout the song so perfectly #and I much prefer Fred's singing this song compared to when LB covered this song with Corey Feldman on the mic in 2013. he did too much lol #this is my fave MJ song and to hear LB do a small cover of it... I hadn't lived until I heard this version #like AAF killed it with “Smooth Criminal” (god how I remember seeing that mv on MTV Hits back in the day. good memories) #but man oh man I'd give my left arm just to hear LB's studio recorded version of this #still salty that I never got to hear LB's cover of Paula Abdul's “Straight Up”. I still have hope of finding footage of it some day. #Limp Bizkit #nu metal #Fred Durst #Wes Borland #Sam Rivers #John Otto #DJ Lethal #lucy the rabbit's video edits #down the rabbit hole

So, going to link a couple of things before I start with this.

Firstly, the new MV for the Vortex/Overthink/Tides medley which is going to form the basis of my observations.

Secondly, this post, which makes a strong argument that Link Click is deliberately drawing from other time travel media. In this case, the 2002 version of The Time Machine. Also, a fun fact not mentioned in the linked post, but that I recently discovered is that the name of the girlfriend the time traveller is constantly trying to save is *Emma*.

Now that I've linked these two, I just want to say that this rest of this post is me having fun and I would love for these to be deliberate references, but let's be real, a lot of time travel media understandably shares a lot of visual language. Hourglasses, butterflies, and clocks are all fairly recurrent themes.

Click the read more for a mix of potential references to other time travel media and screenshots of specific details of the new MV I found interesting:

Left: Link Click (note the photo reel design). Right: Doctor Who (specifically one of the intros for the Twelfth Doctor)

And to add to the photography aesthetic present throughout, the photo reel clock resolves itself into a camera lens:

Next, we have a main character centred within a clock. In both cases, the character casts multiple shadows that resemble clock hands.

Left: Link Click. Right: Steins;Gate

The shot where Qiao Ling is stood still amongst a moving crowd is neat for two reasons. First, the people she's surrounded by seem to be those related to the cases CXS/LG have taken on. You can see Emma just behind in the above screenshot. And the other thing is that the first time this sequence plays the moving characters are too blurry to easily make out. When the sequence reverses however, and the lyrics speak of "pausing" the scene actually freezes with all the characters clear for a tiny bit. (I didn't screenshot purely because it was a pain to get the exact moment but you can check this if you want)

Upper left: Link Click. Upper right: Higurashi Gou/Sotsu. Bottom: Steins;Gate 0.

Next up: fragments! This one is honestly a real stretch, but hey, there are at least two other time travel adjacent shows that use them as visuals in their openings. I would really like the use to be similar to in Higurashi (the example screenshot is from the anime sequel Gou/Sotsu but the sea of fragments is present in the og too). In Higurashi, each time "loop" is actually an alternate timeline (wherein events would differ slightly even without intervention) and so each fragment represents another timeline. For Steins;Gate, it's more a visual that exists purely in the opening sequence to play into the whole shattered clocks aesthetic.

Left: Link Click. Right: Steins;Gate.

This one is inspired by me watching the opening only to go "Okabe Rintaro????" when Qian Jin showed up. But also. We can clearly see some of Qian Jin's scars in this shot. There appears to be one on the back of his neck and two over his left shoulder. These have to be relevant and obviously his eye colour has me side-eyeing but I don't think we have all the pieces for this character yet. (Him being a former cop with a connection to both of our focus cop characters though makes me think)

And a final one with generic anime trope no 58382929:

Left: Link Click. Right: Steins;Gate

I know, I know. This is typical anime/donghua. But! It's deliberately a shot in Steins;Gate that returns again and again throughout the series. It's also very associated with the character of Mayuri so take that as you will.

Bonus whatever this is:

Multiple Cheng Xiaoshis in different states of doing badly. I wonder if the centremost one is the one Lu Guang appeared to be thinking of in episode 1? Possibly another "fragments" situation or if not then it may be various things Cheng Xiaoshi will go through in this season

Anyway, the Steins;Gate opening visually has a lot of similarities and of course a lot of it is natural overlap because they're both time travel series. And they both draw inspiration from The Time Machine (especially Steins;Gate's sequel, Steins;Gate 0). But I find it pretty neat how all these series from different times and places do have these recurring themes.

#link click #link click spoilers #this is mainly just spamming thoughts and references on a specific part of the mv. #I do have thoughts tm about the hourglass bit but mostly it's interesting how everything is all set up for damsel lu guang #and the recurring multiples of different characters. Plus ofc ofc people have already pointed out two hoodies which this mv agrees with #shiguang daili ren spoilers #shiguang daili ren #steins;gate #Not featured in this: madoka rebellion op. it has some clock cog shots but the op is too focused on being misleading to go full on #both madoka rebellion and s;g have the entire 'reaching out your hand for someone and they vanish' thing though which is a classic trope #but it's also a fave okay. and ptutu has chara in clock cog but isn't time travel in the same way for me to count it #edit: also tumblr mobile destroyed my left/right images smh

[cerealandchoccymilk]

whenever i see illusts/manga thats like. completely monochromatic and uses a lot of dark space . deep inhale

#everything except the first one is gggnk fanart askjdfha #im genuinely in love with 羊焼く太郎さん's art (last one) #i missed the opportunity to order that doujin #but they said theyre gonna reopen sometime in the future so . eyes emoji #idk . you can tell that this is a professional with a very deep understanding of technique and visual mechanics #theres just something about it..... #like shirahama kamome. or motegi ryo #its insane to me that im mutuals with motegi ryo and like. had conversations with them. btw #their skill is just . wow #anyways uhmmmmmmm this specific artstyle!!! i need to fuck it[taken out back and shot] #- vio #picdo #gggnk #kitaro #gegero #getakichi #mizuki #<-tagging just in case bc these are some of my faves.....

[doctorweebmd]

unfortunately bungo stray dogs is the epitome of a show/story that would be so good if it was good

#it honestly drives me insane #the bones are THERE #the characters are THERE #the metaphors are THERE #you could have built a city but instead you built a playground!!!!! #i fear I must be insane and fix the things that are missing at once #don’t get me wrong I love bsd a lot. and I think asagiri is brilliant. #and he’s becoming a stronger writer the longer he’s writing #but have you considered that BEAST makes much more thematic character storyline motivation etc etc sense than the original? #part of what makes BEAST so good is the direct juxtaposition between that universe and the main one #if only if it was as well written and thematically consistent as my hero aca <- gets shot #but again. I love love love love bsd. I’ve been thinking about it 24/7 recently. #but compared to other highly rated anime’s I’ve watched recently #including mob and Dr stone and demon slayer and jjk #it has one of the weaker plot consistencies and cohesive storylines #…. so of course it’s the one I got ridiculously obsessed with #but ok hear me out I’m just gonna shit on some peoples faves real quick #it’s so much more INTERESTING than at least demon slayer and jjk to me #the characters and their relationships are much more enticing and memorable #but the storyline itself and giving the chance for the characters to shine is not the best

oh the terrors i would have had if mordremoth's body looked like it did in the trailer

this shit is nightmare inducing (pun not intended—)

#gw2 #text #also these are some of my fave non-game shots theyre so imposing and eugh. #this design is top tier but its horrifying and i guess the reason he looks so different ingame is perhaps the meta being done last minute #or that they wanted to keep it a surprise to what he really looked like #or maybe even just wanted to convey the 'he is the jungle' theme more fully w/ this #either way im rambling plant grandpa scary #mordremoth #oh nightmare fuel mordremoth my beloved

I don't coin-post here very often but LOOK AT IT! Gosh I love collecting coins sm.....so many interesting designs

#thanks mom for giving me this #some pals have given me state coins or other random coins and Im like AHHHHH THANK U #NGL............I hope the next person I date gets me a pig coin or smth on the 1 year anniversary #I just #love coins so much (specifically canadian ones or states coins in general LOL) #I have no specific knowledge on them as my brain memory is shot from depression but just having them makes me so happy #one day I wanna sit down and look up the facts of all the coin designs I have!! #my fave is still probs the glow in the dark aurora borealis toonie #and that is the ONLY coin I have ever bought. the rest I got from friends/trades/change

[sungchantual]

can't believe all my roommate's friends were so actively working against me when it came to who gets the big room with the balcony attached to it and in the end she actually got it....

#we agreed to make it fair by drawing lots for it #but i ended up suggesting to use the spinning wheel generator so that it's really up to luck #and i can't believe i shot myself in my own foot with this bc she actually got the big room #even though in the beginning of the year i asked if i could have it when the other roommate moves out #(we knew for a while that she'd move out in summer) #but then my roommate asked if we could draw lots maybe and i said yes bc i didn't wanna be an asshole 😭 #but now she actually got the big room and now i kinda regret not putting my foot down and claiming it #bc on my side everyone told me i could just say that i've been in the flatshare the longest and therefore i could claim the room #but idk i wanted to be nice and look where it got me #it's not the end of the world bc my current room is still nice it's just the smallest #but i'm really complaining abt nothing ig #at least i'm saving money on rent 😅 #but the big room would have been saur nice tbh.... #and the fact that my windows still fave the balcony and now the roommate who constantly invites friends over has the balcony ......... #you see where i'm getting at 😵‍💫 #let's hope i'll get some good sleep the next few week before it's too cold to be on the balcony CJSJCHS #but yeah with her friends working against me i also mean that a lot of them smoke so apparently they told her that she should get the room #bc she smokes and has friends that smoke as if i am not worthy of a balcony bc i don't smoke like 🫠 #idk i felt like i was the only nice on in the scenario who was willing to play fair even though i didn't have to and her friends were still #lowkey pissing on my leg behind my back yk #she was nice about it but her friends get the side eye from me abt the whole thing 😶 #sorry for the rant #delete later #000

FINALLY A HAMLET 2000 TRUTHER

VERY NICE TO MEET YOU I AM OBSESSED WITH HAMLET 2000. my friend and I put it on on a 3 am whim intending to make fun of it but the further in we got the more we were turning to each other like "wait is this good? is this actually good though?? holy shit?? why does this go off?"

#some may argue that the blockbuster scenes or the faxing or the painfully 90s outfits date this movie but I #enlightened #am here to argue it was actually ahead of its time. #its time hasn’t happened yet or anything ofc but it Will come #hamlet #ask #every day I think about his stupid fucking hat. #also that uncomfortably long shot in 1.2 of hamlet and claudius talking reflected fuzzily in the half rolled down car window while a #sharply in focus gertrude beams up at them over the rim.. like. she's so.... #+ the commitment to utter unaesthetic-ness: hamlet’s super cluttered depression apartment & cars honking on the new york street #& 4.3 in the LAUNDROMAT— ham 2000 is the 2d production I've seen where hamlet kisses claudius after 'man and wife is one flesh'' #a concept I like a lot more than the traditional gertrude kiss bc it's kinda in line w how he's been fucking with claudius the entire scene #(though ethan hawke kisses them BOTH. a choice I am OBSESSED with. get it I guess) #as a pretty subdued unenergetic hamlet I def wouldnt say its my fave performance but there are like. so many fascinating choices #the action movie motif.. the airplane motif.. biker horatio.. marcellus as his girlfriend who's just silently in the bg for all of act 5?? #also BILL MURRAY POLONIUS and actually all the ophelia stuff was such a Take. #that intensely uncomfortable scene with the king & queen where hes telling them about her relationship with hamlet as she slowly wanders #along the edge of the pool... it's SO visceral like that's. that's exactly how being a kid feels. #no agency.. your parents telling people your personal shit while youre just There. and zoning out to cope #anyway I'm tired but so much abt the framing & symbolism is so oddly compelling I can't go through all of it #a lot of it I just didnt know what to think of too loll like setting the ros & guil scene in the club.... #them having to yell to be heard over the music is such a specific and awkward vibe as to be intriguing #but also they cut the most interesting part of that scene lol I was disappointed #+ they cut the gravedigger which is.. in line with how little they showed hamlet's sense of humour and odd bursts of energy and such :( #but anyway it's undeniably a fun watch with a friend #I'm definitely forgetting some stuff there was a Lot
