love ur content for the covenant! it’s great to see people make new good content for this movie. this movie is guilty pleasure of mine and the fan content for it is immaculate. much love!! <3

And much love in return 💙 like...is The Covenant a good movie? No, nope, absolutely not. But is it a fun movie with goofy dialogue and a great soundtrack and hot warlocks? Yes! A guilty pleasure it truly is.

Dear everyone who is currently working on a Thing, whatever that Thing may be,

Good luck with the Thing. You can do the Thing. You will do the Thing. You just have to do the Thing.

Best wishes,

Someone who is also doing a Thing

You have no idea how excited I am to know someone else likes this movie 😭 I saw it randomly on tv and was fixated for soooo long but even then the fandom was so little

I'm excited too! There's next to NOTHING for the fandom these days, somebody had to change that...even if sometimes it feels like I'm hanging in a graveyard these days. But I happen to think graveyards are strange and beautiful places anyway.

Oh yes there was a graphic novel. It was a prequel tie in released a few months before the movie. The movies not based on the graphic novel, they were actually developed concurrently. It was allegedly to help market the movie but almost no one bought it and even fewer people liked it. The only place I’ve been able to find a copy is on Amazon for like $5 plus shipping.

They tried so hard to make this movie a thing and it just did not happen. I think if it had been released after twilight instead of before it would have done numbers but unfortunately that is not the world we live in.

I can't believe there was a graphic novel, I never even knew that! I am so totally tracking a copy down when I have money to spare.

It really does seem like they tried, doesn't it?

The whole movie feels like it's building up to something bigger, with at least one sequel in mind, but it just never ended up happening 💔 Rather then another movie, I would have loved a TV show to follow it, allowing for more time and more world (I would love to know more about the magic/magical species in this world and have many thoughts on it) and character building (and maybe Tyler could actually get more then a scrap of dialogue), with the entire thing ending in another film.

So, movie, TV show (at least three seasons), and movie to end it all!

“I almost posted Nightingale on my Covenant blog”

I’m sorry Covenant blog? As in The Covenant? The 2006 movie starring Sebastian Stan about about college frat boy witches? Because if so I thought I was the only person in the world that still remembered that movie!

I don't typically talk about other fandoms on fandom blogs BUT since you asked and nobody EVER asks about this film...yes! Following in my love of terribly written early 2000s media, I have a blog for The Covenant.

I spent years wanting to but not writing anything for them because the fandom is...

Dead.

Like, dead dead.

But I always wanted to READ stuff about them and nobody was writing anything so I thought, you know what? Be the change you wish to see in the world! I just do little stuff, moodboards and headcanons and things, I don't think there's really an audience for the full length fic I had planned (I planned it years ago, back in high school, it was cool! It explained why the Covenant family lines were cursed and there was this cool scene where the SoI and the OC had to fight thier zombiefied warlock ancestors in the graveyard).

Last ramble:

This film RUINED Sebastian Stan for me. Do you have any idea how HARD life on Tumblr was during the Marvel obsession? Everyone and thier monkey was freaking out over Bucky this and Winter Soilder that and meanwhile, I can't even look at him without hearing

"I'm going to make you my wee-yotch!"

Actual dialogue from the film, by the way. Somebody says this and I can't even say it's the CRINGEST moment because...there's a few of them.

♡ Hobbies for the Sons of Ipswich ♡ because I think they need some hobbies beyond warlock shit/being hot, you know?

Music and wood carving. There's always music playing with Caleb around, mostly rock. His grandfather liked to wood carve, said that it taught him patience and attention to detail, and he taught Caleb too. It helps with being a warlock, woods can be used to make talismans and things, but he mostly does it for himself...and for you, carving a little charm and hanging it from a charm bracelet for you.

Writing and mechanics. Pogue loves to write and hopes to one day be published. For now, he's mostly scribbling in notebooks (always with a dark blue pen, it's a tradition) and he always has a notebook and pen with him, just in case an idea hits him. Of course he loves working on his bikes and on cars too, music blasting in the garage and his tools everywhere as he gets to work, it's so relaxing and simple compared to everything else in his life.

Music and running. He's always listening to music, much like Caleb, but he dabbles in it too. Plays guitar and piano and writes his own songs (which no one has ever heard/read before), records them all on cassette tapes because he's old school like that. And running helps him clear his head, especially when he starts to lose his temper and get lost in it. That's actually how you meet, Reid blasting music as he runs, stumbling upon a pretty girl and her broken down car in the middle of nowhere.

Art and reading. Ty is a crazy talented artist, mostly in ink and charcoal sketches. But he also dabbles in painting (acrylic and watercolor) and a little in sculpting too. He has a habit of drawing/painting on everything, doodles covering his homework but no one minds. And he's always got a book with him, mostly historical fiction, sci-fi, horror, classics, and (secretly) romance. Pogue actually likes to read too as they're always sharing books.
