I know this couldn’t be older news but I just want to say that until the day I die no one will ever convince me Nesta couldn’t walk DOWN 10,000 stairs.
Up? Ok fine we can talk. But DOWN?!
THE PERFECT MYSTICAL BEINGS IN YOUR MAGIC WORLD CANNOT WALK DOWN 10,000 STAIRS?!
And don’t give me any of this “she was out of shape” bs. Let’s say, for argument sake, a fae body is 10 times as strong as a human body (and I think that’s an undersell). I could drag myself DOWN 1,000 steps even if I was so hungover I had to stop and throw up every one hundred.
COME ON!!! If you’re going to trap women in towers and make them the villain for it can we at least make it realistic?!

Bond falls victim to what I am now calling "Steve Rogers Syndrome," where a main character throws away his found family (which the audience has become much more attached to) in favor of a bland, boring, nuclear/heterosexual life. Just because Bond doesn't get his "happy ending" doesn't mean that he doesn't fall into this trope.
I think a lot of people would agree with me when I say that Bond & Madeline have no chemistry. They had no chemistry in Spectre and they continue to have none in NTTD. And yet, we're supposed to care about their relationship because 1) the narrative (i.e. Bond) tells us, instead of shows us, that he loves her, and 2) there is a child (which the narrative also tells us that we should care about).
But the truth is that Bond doesn't trust Madeline. Not really. The second he's attacked by Spectre, he immediately blames her and doesn't even question if he's wrong (and she doesn't really try to convince him otherwise). Now, you may chalk this up to Bond not trusting anybody, but here's where we get to the found family: because he does trust his MI6 family, implicitly, immediately.
He trusts Eve enough to tell her about the scientist, Feliks, what happened in Cuba, etc., and to ask for her help. He trusts Q so much that he gives him the flashdrive he recovered in Cuba, he stays with Q in his apt while he's in London, he places his life in Q's hands multiple times throughout Skyfall, Spectre, and NTTD. He trusts Mallory - even after knowing his shadiness with Herakles, he still trusts him enough to go back under his command. He even trusts Nomi after only a few days of meeting her - enough to trust her to have his back on the island, enough to trust her with Madeline and his child.
So the fact that Bond doesn't trust Madeline is a huge, huge red flag. To me, the "trilogy" of Skyfall, Spectre, and NTTD were all about establishing Bond's support system and family within MI6. In Casino Royale and QoS, he really only had M, and no other connections to MI6 beyond her. But starting with Skyfall, he begins to build a support network of people he does trust in MI6, and the audience begins to trust them (and love them) along with Bond.
This simply doesn't apply to Madeline, because Bond doesn't trust her, and so the audience is never shown why we should trust her or love her.

If I had a nickel for every time what I thought to be an old lesbian couple in a movie turned out to be sisters…

Still bitter that we didn't get a Bal duet! Every other of Kenny's main couples got a duet in their movies. And yet Bal didn't. A Disney couple who was confirmed to be a True Love, one of the biggest things in Disney Didn't. Get. A. Duet.
Where is our Bal duet, Kenny?!
We were robbed, I tell you!

I wish I could just settle down and enjoy the chemistry between David Tennant's Doctor and Katherine Tate's Donna, but it just keeps reminding me that the incredible Martha Jones was the one companion that this Doctor just couldn't love, and I get all "WTF Rusty?" all over again.

Lol just thinking about the “Cangel came out of nowhere in season 3 and there was absolutely no build-up” narrative when there was such organic and gentle undertones throughout the second half of season 2. Let’s just think about how our man Angel was down and out when he thought he lost Cordelia—he was so despondent when she said they weren’t friends; when she told him how he hurt her. I’m sorry but his reaction was NOT platonic. He HAD to make things right with her like he bought her a WHOLE new wardrobe! Mr. LIVE THE MISSION AND NOTHING ELSE WENT SHOPPING. And his smile and joy when she was so ecstatic! He was so relieved! And don’t even get me started on his clear disappointment when he realized Cordelia wasn’t saying she was in love with HIM in Plrtz Glrb he was low-key (high-key) feeling dejected. Idk I think it’s pretty clear what was happening but maybe that’s just me.

hi my name is benioff and wise (yes, simultaneously). i am adapting a prestige tv show out of a fantasy series although it will soon become very clear that i actually dislike fantasy and think its just for nerds, and instead i want my fantasy show to be COOL and GRITTY (aka i will excise almost all of the magical elements and will instead have as many porny sex scenes as it does scenes where women are raped and butchered). though the series i am adapting is arguably in part one long meditation on the nature of good vs evil, i will instead time and time again shove in my worldview that goodness = stupidity and evil = intelligence. gee, isnt littlefinger such a badass mastermind, and not a psychopathic, arrogant fratbro pervert? anyways, give me money to make star wars movies pls. thanks

Oh. Valentine’s Day. Right. How about a poem.
Her lipstick is red
His suspenders are blue
I’m still pissed off
So JD, fuck you.

Star Trek Picard season three:
So far, we've sidelined the greatest Romulan of all time to reunite a couple I've shipped since fifth grade...and possibly given them a secret love child?
Tumblr media
Like, I can't be the only PC shipper that hates this? Bev gave birth to another son thirty years ago and never told anyone? If Picard is the father it's not going to be a good look for Bev.
I'm sure there's an extremely science fictional explanation for all this...but do we really need this? Why can't we watch Laris, Beverly, and Deanna meet up for drinks instead?

I’m not going to stop with Portwell content even though it all went to shit. Even if I have like 5 people reblogging the gifsets because I’m not gonna let this ship die. I have 1% hope left. If they end up one of those should have deserved better ships so be it. But we still have another season to hopefully fix the mess which I highly doubt but you know let’s hope.
