Lan Zhan, honey, there is no need to be jealous. Wei Ying is oblivious as hell. However, I believe that Nie Huaisang had a crush on Wei Ying during their time in Cloud Recesses.

I'll need some time to breathe after The Untamed, but we're 100% watching Word of Honor in the future. I want to read Faraway Wanderers before that to get to know the characters better.

I’m finally getting around to watching the series Avatar: The Last Airbender. It definitely lives up to the hype. Lots of care and thought were put into the show that I did not expect. I particularly enjoy how the show builds on and recontextualizes itself as it goes on.

The Avatar is a role that functions much like the real-life Dalai Lama, in that it is believed that each holder of the title is the reincarnation of the last.

In S3E6, Aang (current avatar) communes with the previous incarnation of himself. This incarnation describes events from his life, including formative experiences and friendships that are important to Aang today.

When Aang was a child, he had a handler named Monk Gyatso. This monk was an extremely caring and positive figure for Aang. Gyatso taught Aang discipline, attention to detail, and other important skills for a warrior, while keeping his childhood fun and engaging.

Avatars are usually informed of their power and responsibilities when they turn 16. In Aang’s case, powerful negative omens pressured the monks to activate him at just 12 years old. Gyatso came to his defense, arguing that Aang had a right to a childhood.

We learn in S3E6 that the previous avatar was close friends with Gyatso when they were both children. Aang is overjoyed to find out that he has been friends with Gyatso before, and his previous incarnation says “some friendships are so strong, they can even transcend lifetimes.”

I was immediately brought back to those early moments of the series. Gyatso knew that Aang was the avatar, he knew this child was a reincarnation of a close friend who passed away. He knew Aang couldn’t remember their friendship, and still he cared for him. He made Aang’s childhood safe, fun, and enriching, and he loved his friend.

While I don’t think we are reincarnated when we die, it’s a beautiful thing to love a lost friend or family member through their legacy. Even though they can never know how we hold them with us, how we continue to care for them when they’re gone, we can still love them. Maybe it’s even more beautiful that they can’t know.

Finally watching Andor and I'm curious about the flashback (?) scenes with no subtitles? I would like to believe it's for a purpose that they didn't translate them, but it just feels weird... this is, presumably, an important part of a characters backstory, and you're not gonna let us know what any of them are saying? No one gets to understand anything that isn't said in English??

I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned my love and respect for Cillian Murphy. He really is such a talented actor not to mention the fact that he’s gorgeous. I first met him in Batman and then in Inception which is one of my absolute favorite movies. He also lead me to another one of my favorite movies of all time which is The Edge of Love where he played a character named William who is such a gem and will always have my heart. The cinematography is excellent and the story really captivates me, I’ve watched it a couple times actually, it makes me cry every time and I just love the relationship between Vera and Caitlin. But not just that because Thomas from Peaky Blinders is also such a well done character. He is the reason I started the show but I stayed because it was so we’ll done. One of my all time favorite shows for sure. Anyway I’m saying all this to say that Cillian Murphy is one of the best and I absolutely adore him.

very into horror & the show that most has my attn right now is ‘from’ (2022-present). it’s abt a family who gets stuck in a small town that is terrorized by monsters that come from the forest. (v vague 4 what the show has 2 offer lolol) but, im most interested in it bc im upsessed with dissecting the world-building from a black transfeminist theory lens which makes the experience so much richer. i’m especially interested in what it says abt decoloniality + intentionally designed apocalyptic worlds as well as what it means to build a world upon principles of care vs survival.

there’s also some sacrificial mythicism going on that i can’t comment on too much yet bc it’s part of the pile of mysteries the show has yet 2 resolve in the first 2 seasons. but i wanna discuss the racialized implications of harold perrineau’s protagonist character “Boyd” being the sheriff in charge of the towns safety, slaughtering (of ppl who break the rules), and part of a sacrifice 2. it’s not often that we have a black man protagonist with this much power that takes on the nurturing role esp in an apocalyptic setting. but also wondering if that is an intentional part of the design, as in “everything goes” in this apocalyptic world (black men entrusted with the care of a whole town of yt ppl). he kinda reminds me of the father in Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower more thoughts 2 come on this.

I'm not very happy to be watching the new mean girls considering I've seen the original, but for a musical I guess it's not that bad.

Every ensemble show has an invisible ": Friendship is Magic" in their titles. Except My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. That show cuts to the essential core of what every ensemble show is always really about. It is The Archetype. I admire the audacity of saying the quiet part out loud, and also of making a show where it's both figuratively and literally true.

So, I have been considering rebranding my YouTube channel into one that focuses on film & tv. Which is probably what my channel should have always been about.

It has come to my attention that I watch quite a lot of stuff. I don't really know anyone who enjoys movies the way I do and feel like I need an outlet to share my thoughts.

However, my low self esteem & depression keeps telling me it's a terrible idea. Which is why I've been stewing on it for a year.
