#the writing didn’t feel like a movie

[clover-46]

the writers on here making the miguel fics need to remember his fangs inject paralytic venom hes not a real vampire it was just a joke in the movie 😭

oh but i still want him to bite me don’t get me wrong idgaf if they have venom 🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️

#the copious amounts of smut i’ve seen with this man and the fangs is crazy #y’all need to tone it DOWN wheres the fluff omg?? #there’s like so many smut x reader fics clogging the miguel o’hara tag and people can express their creative liberties or whatever but it’s #getting CRAZY #like why is almost nobody talking about his character and writing an analysis on him #AND WHY ARE SO MANY FICS WRITING HIM TO BE SOME FERAL AND MEAN BEAST #firstly it’s feels racist to write a brown latino man that way. #second it feels fetishiz-y with how people only sexualize the fuck outta him and talk about nothing else when it comes to him #to add onto that people are drawing him with a MUZZLE on #at first all this didn’t really register in my head as bad but after seeing so much i see it 😭 #also some spanish speakers have said people are using incorrect spanish when writing dialogue for him and thats kinda funny #don’t use google translate please 💀 #miguel o’ hara #spiderman 2099 #across the spiderverse #i also saw someone say miguel would not be a good partner or something and i just know you didn’t pay attention #and i wont go into why because its spoilers but we have seen him be soft and happy with someone he cares about it’s just trauma that has #made him mean and depressed #he was obviously projecting onto miles in the movie when he acted like that let’s be fr #why am i writing a novel down here idk i just wanted to talk about it a little #i love the smut (trust me) but pleaaseee don’t start being fetishize-y

So mad about me just realizing the color pallet despite being in Sonic mode for the past like week

#I’ll repost this w/ the doodle dump later #but also feel free 2 rb now #if u want #I’m just too lazy to tag #I’ve been mostly thinking about fucking Sonic underground. #which is worse than danny phantom but for sure in the category of #’’has enough missed potential that I go insane’’ y/k? #triplets r fucking born man #plus what’s known about the production makes me want to find the asshole who ordered a 40 episode single season in 1997 #expecting it to be fucking done in 1998 #INSANE #it missed that deadline and didn’t come out til early ‘99 which is still CRAZY for a first season #like they were writing 2 22 minute scripts a week it was fucking bad #like u have to do so much production shit that most shows take 2 1/2 or more years for a 26 episode order #DiC sucked dick man #plus production seemed to think they were making a don bluth movie which is NOT the kind of designs u wanna be getting for tv animation #when u have about 2 1/2 weeks per episode (NOTE: NOT ACTUALLY HOW PRODUCTION WORKS. ITS MULTIPLE STAGES HAPPENING SIMULTANEOUSLY LOL) #ok I’m gonna stop bc I’m gonna try to do an underground doodle dump too and if I do I can talk there #where it’s relevant

Once more, I see people misinterpretation of Amy and Laurie romance and once more, I suffer

#sometimes #sometimes I feel like you watched the movie/ read the book with your eyes closed #one day I will write extensively about it #but this is not the day #just know #Amy was not a ‘Laurie didn’t get Jo so he settled for Amy’ #it’s far more complex and much more lovely #also #you don’t have to turn everything in a competition #it’s stupid and childish #little women #amy march #amy x laurie #laurie laurence

trying to formulate my opinions on The Spot by holding my sister as a captive audience while i loudly rant around her apartment

#it is a cold fucking day in hell when i let a middleaged white man take credit for a black teenager’s accomplishments and choices. #i don’t care if he’s fictional #i can’t believe some of you are eating what he’s saying. if we’re rejecting miguel o’haras idea of destiny then why are we accepting #this monologue from a dumbass who can’t accept that he’s the way that he is because of his own fucking choices #you CHOSE to work for those labs YOU CHOSE not to evacuate sooner #he couldn’t have predicted what happened next. but don’t pretend you didn’t choose this #anyone can be spiderman but miles had to CHOOSE this #your fake ass had nothing to do with his leap of faith in the first movie… #miles is made of everyone he has ever loved and respected #fuck this destiny nonsense. the spot sees Miles spark and CHOOSES to mold himself into its shadow in a desperate bid #to feel like his miserable life has any meaning #he’s a threat he’s a narrative foil he’s got the insane visuals to mirror miles. but he is NOT destiny incarnate. #the next movie is going to be about Miles rejecting The Spot as much as he rejects O’haras rules #he said it himself he’s sick of other people telling him what his story’s supposed to be about #damn what is it about writing in the tags that makes things more cohesive. #across the spiderverse spoilers #atsv spoilers #spiderverse spoilers #pizzazz meta #edit: for the record i think The Spot is a great villain and i do appreciate what he does for the narrative #but i dont believe him like i believe in miles

hi so i just finished bridge to terabithia and now i’m unwell and my eyes are red because i’ve been crying before i’d even reached 20 minutes of it for i actually knew what was going to happen and by the time i reached an hour something something i just straight up sobbing screaming into my pillow. and now it’s 12 am and i’m still thinking about them. because god, look at them, how they were, the little world they lived in, wouldn’t you just love that, to run away, to escape, to grasp that childhood naivety and innocence that you lost a long time ago, to feel the sun in your skin and the air in your lungs and to paint fantasies and laugh and play and run hidden away from the world and find an old run down tree house and decided to make it your own little shelter and pin up canvases on the worn wood and paint and let your creativity goes wild and have someone understand you and gets you and do it with you, and wouldn’t you just love to have something so constant, so sincere, so genuine, so pure, so real, that there wasn’t anything else. if i knew i was going to cry this much, if i knew how much space this movie would make in my life, i wouldn’t have started this movie tonight. i would have been in peace on the floor of my room, not realizing how badly i actually want something like this even though i would never unironically admit this to anyone in my life or even myself when i’m outside of the familiar place of my mind, for that matters

#bridge to terabithia #how am i supposed to recover #i wasn’t planning to write a paragraph about it but yeah i kinda love this movie i guess #i needed a good cry and the universe didn’t stop me from choosing this movie i don’t know if that’s nice or simply mean #i was going to watch la la land after this but that’s not gonna happen now #i’m not reading back what i wrote otherwise i would just delete it because i’d think this movie deserves better more coherent thoughts #and i’d say that i’d just rewrite it tomorrow but then i wouldn’t #because nothing would ever beat the “everything i create has to be great or nothing” in me #and i never am proud of what i made unless it’s supposedly only for my viewing #so i actually don’t know if what i just wrote make sense but yeah #my eyes feel so weird right now #also the ending was definitely up to interpretations!! (spoiler alert* just in case) #i myself personally like to believe he dreamed up the last 30 minutes of it and didn’t even go to the museum #and so he’ll just wake up definitely shocked but then still find leslie in her house who was just about to meet him so they could go!! #and because the rope was cut off by the lightning from last night they decide to build the bridge so everyone could cross safe and sound!! #i like my ending better they really should change it #but no all and all the end was really beautiful #even though it took me maybe even an hour to get through it because i keep sobbing and have to repeat over and over to hear what they said #yeah okay anyways sorry for the rant<3 #i’m not sure what this is #but glad i could get it off my chest #let’s see how to tag how to tag #movies #just #childhood #whatever <3 #nadirants

I gotta say I watched Bill and Ted Face the Music for the first time and why can’t they just be a polycule? The entire plot line of the boys needing to individually tell their wives they love them probably wouldn’t have had to be a plot line if they’re all just dating.

#i can’t think of a good reason Bill and Ted can’t date #their wives don’t have to date eachother but like why can’t the bros? #why they gotta have such a major plot line involving the boys individually telling their wives they love them? #completely saw the daughters being who actually made the song too btw #I’m not mad about it but I do feel like the first two movies being about some amazing song written by Bill and Ted only for them to not #write the song is a choice #i guess the girls names are basically Bill and Ted so eh #like I said I’m not mad about it. i just found it predictable and kinda not what the first two implied #anyways I believe two guys can be friends. Bill and Ted are pushing the whole just bros thing. this is my obliterated statement about #how people can just be friends but I think some guys just feel more than just friends #Bill and Ted are kind of two of those guys #i think Bills outfit was fine for an older Bill but Ted felt a little too just an adult man #i can’t believe I’m making a post about Bill and Ted #bill and ted #bill and ted face the music #i bet the only reason it’s not actually a song song at the end is because they didn’t have the time or will to make a song that could #believable fix the world. I’m pretty sure it’s EpicIII that had a lot of time put into it so it was believable that THAT was the song that #changed hades mind. not everyone is willing to do that and like fair enough ig #what the fuck did they change epicIII? i got to watch it a few months ago and the song that was epicIII was not what I had memorized #why am I talking about Hadestown on a Bill and Ted post? #why is any of this the way it is? I’m gonna go lay down #Hadestown was very good though. I’d recommend if your ever able. Face the Music wasn’t bad either. about as good as the other two overall.

i watched barbie again it was fun. honestly am more convinced of it having done what it set out to do than i was before. like i get it now. there are things you could criticize about what kind of movie they chose to make but i would say they were pretty successful in making a movie that worked

#post tag #by which i mean i don’t think there’s any glaringly obvious issues with like. it claiming to be feminist but being antifeminist. or anything #but like sure you could say ‘do we really need a movie that portrays barbie this way’ or something like that #it does have . some flaws. but like. plot beats aren’t bad i don’t think #i think i was more weirded out by the ken ending before than i am now #she didn’t really fall all over herself to make ken feel better. she just went to him because she had affection for him as a friend #and they had to move on from what happened #and like yes trying to invent patriarchy was a bad thing to do to her but like. it’s like the steven & the diamonds thing #what happened isn’t treated as very serious because it’s just a fully unserious movie #and like. like i said i guess. you could say they shouldn’t write a plot like that if they’re not going to be serious about it #but idk. i don’t think it’s so bad

As an aspiring writer who never posts my shit i shall also help our little friend.

1. NEVER add too many of , because those make your fics seem slow paced and annoying to read, especially to those with short attention spans. Using less of , makes your writing seem more confident and relaxed.

Example and how to spot where you need it;

Instead, consider changing how you write it. Is it necessary to use it?

Instead consider changing how you write it. Is it necessary to use it? This advice is better to speak outloud.

With the , you speak slower. It also happens with reading something in your head and makes you stop the reading in your mind, and as a person with short attention span that gets frustrating. (also i have noticed that fics with less , per chapter are more favored than those with more)

2. Allow others to comment and suggest shit, but never change a fucking thing unless you actually WANT it and see it as something YOU ARE NOT PRESSURED TO DO.

3. If you feel like you want to rewrite a fic, dont delete the old one. Use it as both a draft and the basis for the rewrite, and a way for you to see your improvements.

4. Write when you are NATURALLY inspired. This is the reason i hesitate over releasing my writings to the internet. My computer and phone are full of many WIPs, but most of them are more like long prompts i havent worked on in like... 5 years or more? I have tried forcing myself to do things that are similar to what originally inspired me to write those things, but i find my work severely lacking compared to when the mood strikes me, in both length and quality. I know the pain of having to wait for a new chapter to release, and the hell of seeing "discontinued" on a work i enjoy, and i swore to myself i would NEVER do it to anyone myself.

(i am a big fat liar. I have one work posted and i havent posted on it for two years, but i am in denial.)

5. Use the tags properly. I dont give a fuck if its an international event on the fucking platform, i better see the fucking correct tags on that post or i will fuck you up. If you tag it "english" it better fucking BE english. If its an event, USE the PROPER TAG for the event. (Example, MerMay 2022). If it is FANART, TAG IT AS FANART. Its an extreme trigger for me to see improperly tagged shit. If it lacks a tag that isnt THAT important im alright, such as "we die like (character)s fat ass". But if its something like the work is promised to be Pure Fluff but is ACTUALLY ONLY SMUT AND NO FLUFF i will PIKA-CHUU!!!! YOUR ASS SO HARD.

Thank You For Watching "Stews Rants About Triggering My Wrath With Only Letters".

-🥘Stew

in addition, here’s some vaguely aggressive advice from our resident beloved, stew anon.

(post your things stew i want to read what you have created do it do it do-)

#m1d : [chats] #stew🥘 anon #stew be like ‘don’t use commas’ WATCH ME /nm #‘it slows down your writing’ i know and i love you but consider: longer sentences #i like to think my sentence structure is pretty varied but like. universal constant is commas #i love them. they… probably hate me. venom (2018). #<i didn’t google the date m just guessing venom was in 2018. feels like a 2018 kinda movie yk? #anyway. stew is probably right. #will i stop? no. #but at least im aware 😌 #self aware one could say #< how do i have friends.

Local girl is bored and anxious out of her mind. More to come when she wakes up from her depression nap

#i wholeheartedly believe it’s the weather #i want to leave my apartment but i just can’t lol #i want to go to the movies #my friend is in town and going bowling with our usual group #and i just don’t fucking have it in me #to get up and go #and besides i really don’t want to go bowling it’s pretty boring to me even with friends #and they’re likely gonna talk about work and I’m sick of that being our main topic of conversation #it’s gonna be cloudy and stormy ALL WEEK #summer just started :( #i wanted to at least play a game but all the games i wanna play i can only do it on windows #and i have a Mac #i started writing more but didn’t feel like publishing #my GOD WHEN WILL THE HORRORS END

#I know I talked about watching mysterious skin the other day #but like holy shit I’ve never seen a personal experience translated on screen better than Brian’s #legit was balling my eyes out anytime he was on screen #I was writing a story thag had a similar them with trauma/ufo shit #I didn’t know this was a part of the Story. I had only seen Joseph Gordon levitts character #I don’t think I’ve talked about this b4 I don’t wanna go into detail. not like I could anyway. I don’t remember anything #but it made me feel so validated but also super super depressed idk #I think I will read the book after recovering from the movie #I don’t think I’ve ever watched anything that resonated so strongly with my childhood bullshit #I was like wait YES this is how it feels

[ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

What will you be doing today? Creating for yourself or others? Or consuming something someone has created? Maybe a little bit of both…

#today I feel like consuming. like watching movies. I’m tired and don’t want to draw #I did some taxes but didn’t finish yet #i spent all week creating #art #movies #writing #gaming #hobbies

Never Been Kissed

adult demi mm romance

a film studies graduate managing his town’s dying drive in theatre is desperate to save it, and tries to convince a reclusive local director to show her lost media film

also his ex crush/best friend is the new social media manger there

#never been kissed #aroaessidhe 2023 reads #ok first i was looking at GR to write my little blurb and it and all the reviews ONLY mention the romance plot none of the old movie subplot #that was the only interesting thing to me but i guess the romance part is more significant #the set up of the romance plot which is all mentioned in the blurb was kinda stupid and unnecessary #like i don’t get the conflict between them at the start. lmao what was the point in the email thing. just to make it immediately awkward? #would the history & suddenly in the same job not do that just as well? #i was fully expecting the other email guy to show up late in the book or something but that was just. never mentioned again #the mc is. pretty infuriating tbh #half the conflict at the start is them not getting a chance to have. conversation because the MC keeps stopping the LI from telling him anyt #thing. either by saying “i don’t want to talk” or just cutting him off with what he assumed he’s gonna say. #even later in the book he keeps cutting him off which still causes problems!!!!! #“he promised we could communicate but was keeping a secret” bitch you never let him tell you anything #alloro people are so annoying. also he’s like an annoying film fan. like not in the misogynistic way but…. #+ he’s come out as gay but feels like something isn’t quite right identifies as queer (idk why he can’t use gay….what’s with people thinking #that asexuality and gayness are mutually exclusive identities). like yay for queer also but?? both are true #overall: sure i guess?? i liked the grumpy old lady. everything else i didn’t care about much #uh there’s also a ‘totem pole’ misuse reference somewhere in there
