I don’t think we talk about this shot enough. whoever was holding the camera, what were you thinking? I know nothing about cinematography, but this sure looks like these-two-in-a-relationship subtext going on

btw people,

in the depths of my Sherlock Holmes obsession, I downloaded all The Strand Magazine pieces that contained a Sherlock Holmes story and added them up as the collections that they would later be released in (with the magazine cover and table of contents and correct page numbers and everything)

so if anyone would want that, here:

Some Like I Hot fans.... a) those who knew, how could you not tell us about this, and b) THERE WAS A SWEET SUE AND HER SOCIETY SYNCOPATERS BAND REUNION???????

and these icons spend the entire time talking about how wonderful Marilyn Monroe was

edit: the girls got the chance to go for an interview and they picked tony Curtis because they thought he was a woman because he was all dressed up in his makeup????

Harry Belafonte, Sammy Davis, and Sidney Poitier were shooting a movie next door so they'd just come over and hang out on set regularly???? they think because they knew there were a bunch of hot girls and Marilyn Monroe there etc

THAT ISN'T MARILYN IN THE PUBLICITY STILLS???? IT"S ONE OF THE GIRL'S BODY AND MARILYN'S FACE????????

The Birdcage (1996) // dir. Mike Nichols

[my-mistake-lets-do-this-again]

I love finding out new things about Saint Robin Williams

[my-mistake-lets-do-this-again]

guys i cant stop thinking about the Robin Williams film The Birdcage and how its considered a comedy. THAT SHIT MADE ME CRYY.

Albert and Armand are willing to change their entire life to bend to the will of their PRICK of a son. they love him so much and at NO POINT in that movie does he show any appreciation for his LOVELY PARENTS. and dont even get me started on agador, he TELLS val that he will fall if he wears shoes and that he cant cook and then when both of those things prove themselves true val has the audacity to be pissed off.

FUCK val honestly, how DARE he ask albert to leave, WHAT DO YOU MEAN he doesnt want his second father to meet his fiancé because hes too gay? ill strangle you, you little shit stain. why are you not the most culturally queer kid to ever walk the earth, you were raised by a drag queen and her husband who OWNS THE DRAG CLUB, be for real.

AND THE FACT THAT VALS FIANCE COULD CARE LESS IF HE HAS TWO DADS. why are we trying to impress these fucking conservatives, who gives a fuck.

and when armand and albert get their palimony agreement bc they cant get married. ILL SOB.

"What does it matter, take it all! im 50 years old and theres only one place in the world i call home and its because your there. so take it, what difference does it make if i say you can stay or you say i can stay? its ours." OH IM A WRECK. dont hit me up, im sobbing.

if I had a nickel for every movie starring Nathan Lane in a relationship with another man where one of them is implied to be Jewish about how their son grew up and fell in love with a girl whose family was cruel that results in him briefly falling out with his dads, then ends with the son reiterating to Lane’s character how regardless of their lack of blood relation, he sees them as family, I’d have two nickels

Bertie Wooster hating the experience of kissing a beautiful woman, like you do.

rereading canon holmes and realising how acd literally gave no fucks about these men. like

what's ur name again doctor man? something beginning with j? james? meh, i'm sure that's right, whatever.

oh and that villain dude who kills off the beloved hero? james. villain's brother? james. they can all be james for all i care

any sense of coherent timeline? nah cba with this guys

AND THEN the fact that... a whole century of scholars have devoted their lives to decoding all the secret details. when. acd was just out there gratuitously jamesing around.

Decided to draw one of my favorite moments in The Hound of the Baskervilles as Sherlock Hound...

[my-mistake-lets-do-this-again]

it’s so enjoyable to see how Watson’s always curled up in the corner, snoozing away…while Holmes just, being Holmes and contemplating

i call them ‘that doctor who tries to keep up with normal human needs and his sleepless maniac detective roommate.’

Cheers to another year of Sherlock Holmes being allowed to respect women!

Wishing Sherlock Holmes a very happy birthday and hoping he had a wonderful first year fully in the public domain.

You're Sherlock Holmes.

You're unique, and you know it. You're one of the smartest people in the world, and you take pride in it. You refine your skills, use them and make a living out of it like no one else could. It's not always good, though. You don't fit with others. No one truly sees or understands you — and at this point, you're sure no one ever can.

You move in with a new flatmate. You have him figured out pretty much from the moment you met him: he's quite simple, really, there's not much to learn. It's not long before you know his every habit, every expression — his expressions are so easy to read, the man is an open book. He's good company, though. And he doesn't seem to mind your eccentricities, so that's nice. You bond, somewhat.

And then — then, he surprises you for the first time. And the second. And the third. He's smarter than you thought, braver than you thought, more loyal, more stubborn than you ever realised, and as you live on together for longer and longer, as you grow closer and closer, he doesn't ever stop surprising you. Just as you think that this time, surely you know all there is to know about him, it turns out there's a new side to him you've never yet experienced. Just as you think you can always predict how he'd behave, he turns to do something unexpected. You spend years together, he's your closest friend, your other half, and there's still so much to learn about him, you know your study will never be complete.

And just as you realise how you can never truly learn all there is to know about him, he learns all there is to know about you. Your habits are unique, strange, unconventional, and he knows them all. Your expressions are unreadable, misleading at times, and he can read every one of them. Your moods are fast-changing, and he anticipates them, and knows how to deal with each one. He knows your opinions, your tastes, what you'll find interesting, what'll make you bored and irritated. At times, you think he knows you better than you know yourself.

He understands you. You never thought anyone could — but then, John Watson always surprised you.
