Why do Taylor Swift music videos just hit different? Like sometimes she’s a silent movie damsel, a goddamn princess or a physical manifestation of toxic relationships that lives in a fairytale mansion, but it’s all just ✨vibes✨
I am forever in love with the fact that in buffy the vampire slayer they present vampires as these sexy degenerate creatures but then their faces morph into something that looks like a gargoyle made love to Voldemort and I think that is just 👌 perfection
Sometimes a family is just you, your emo wizard husband, the child he’s adopted, a dog that may or may not be a spy, a literal fire demon, and the geriatric witch trying to eat said husbands heart
I relate to Steven Grant, because I too, am a coping mechanism for a mentally ill forty year old man
Petition for a remake of Troy where they just let Achilles be gay
Thinking about the lyrics from ballad of Lucy Gray but applied to Haymitch and Maysilee Donner, and his girlfriend, and his family, and literally all the people haunting him while he slowly drinks himself to death after winning the games
Persona A: monologues about identity and the nature of reality and if anything is real and what is god and is our existence purposeful if we’re pursuing a life that is not truly our own
Person B: *nods in dutch
Guillermo del Toro directing Frankenstein is a gift to humanity on its own, but the possibility of Andrew Garfield finally bringing the queer yearning and fruitiness that has been missing from every adaptation of Frankenstein is the cherry on top of the cake
EDIT:
Just learnt that the cast of mamma Mia were literally all drunk like the whole time they filmed and everything suddenly makes sense
I think the thing that’s really striking about the got books as opposed to the show is the way Martin never shies away from how physically damaged everyone is left. In the show Tyrion gets a badass scar but in the books he looses half his nose, Briennes teeth are broken and a chunk of her face is literally bitten out. Theon looks like an old man, his body is completely wrecked -
But they’re still not beyond hope. Their stories don’t finish with the horrible things that happen to them, their scars and deformities, they go on, and it’s not pretty and tragic and romantic like a story
Every single book in the series makes a point about how violence and war is romanticised in literature and history and Martin makes his character a living testament to the reality of war, the ugliness, the trauma, and that depth is just another thing that got glossed over in the show where people stay pretty and everything that made the books special is watered down.
Let your characters be ugly. Let them get hurt. Let them be scarred, and watch them get up anyway.
