#2WEI

[moltengoldveins]

so we can all agree that the newest 2WEI song (take the crown) is the trailer song for an Antarctic Empires Emerald Duo pg14 movie where Techno is a gladiator who earned his freedom and has vowed to destroy the government that enslaved him and Philza is an old demigod banished to a solitary plane of existence for five decades after attempting to run a coup against the ruling class.

They meet on a battlefield, Techno having joined up as brute muscle and Phil having used some minor illusions to pass as a quirky avian and join the bombardment team. Combining some similar plot beats as Oceans 11 and Atlantis: The Lost Empire, they gather a specialized team of insurrectionists, anarchists, battle mages, and warriors to take down the imperium from the inside, eventually planning on restoring the nation to the democracy it was in Phil’s earliest memories. But will they manage it, or will their bloody pasts and violent present seat Technoblade on the throne as the Antarctic Emperor, with Philza as his right hand, the Angel of Death? (Spoiler, the second option. It’s the most controversial film finale decision of the decade.)

The movie is filmed in a style somewhere between Dune 1, the Prince of Egypt, and Topgun. (denis villeneuve is too busy and too expensive, but it’s clear they’re taking inspiration. Bold colors and lighting and a lot of shots of the sky, wildlife, architecture, or of characters’ hands.) It’s scored by an up and coming indie musician, working under the consultation of Ludwig Gorannson in his spare time as a pet project, though his association with the film doesn’t really come out until it Smashes the expected theatre income in the first two days of release and critics start Raving about it. Techno’s actor is nominated for an Oscar for one of the most compelling intricate portrayals of ptsd and platonic devotion in modern cinema, but doesn’t actually get the Oscar.

Tumblr is flooded with gif sets of Techno in the Obligatory No Armor After Gladiator Fight Scene and the Late Night Vibing With Phil In A Loose Poet Shirt scene (firelit, lots of closeups of his eyes, the film is obviously attempting to express his complex emotional state and his deep relationship with Phil, and is failing miserably at doing Anything but making him hot. The internet is ✨gay✨ about it, because when is the internet not?) Also most of the simps are calling Phil a dilf.

Fit MC is the fan-favorite side character, his four scenes and nine lines of dialogue are clipped and edited and giffed and memed into the dirt. (His armor and prosthetic, the makeup and costuming department say, were the hardest thing to do in the entire film, which is why he isn’t in too many shots.) Though, a close second is Niki, who is played by a woman built like a brick house who doesn’t wear sleeves, so…. Yeah. We all know what the response is there. The effects, including Phil’s wings, are almost entirely practical and the only real places it gets iffy is Steve, the giant war polar bear that’s pretty clearly clipping through a few snowbanks here and there. Nobody can agree on which characters are morally reprehensible.

Within a few years, very few people outside a dedicated fan base have seen it and a few assume it’s made up like Goncharov. It’s also, for some ungodly reason, been labeled a Christmas film. (most of the plot happens in the ice and snow, hence ‘Antarctic Empire.’) I guess nothing says ‘Christmas spirit’ quite like ‘unmitigated violence, platonic yearning, and overthrowing oppressors.’

I did a little edit as a Christmas gift to my London meet up peeps (which I won’t share) but I then gave my old Sherlock edit a rewatch while I was on my channel and I still love it so much!

Give it a watch 💜 It’s my one solid attempt at a Sherlock fandom edit!!

(I stuck to writing after that but it was one glorious project!)

What's your opinion on music? Like what genre do you like, do you like it, do you have a favorite song, or what's one you like if you don't have a favorite one? Don't mind me I'm just a music nerd.

Lol so I love basically all types of music tbh

I love musicals, soundtracks, alternative, electronic, acoustic, I honestly love music in all forms!

But for specific stuffs... my fav band is AJR, my fav musical artist is Cody Fry, I'd have to say my favourite music genre is something called "epic orchestral" which is basically like movie trailer music and stuffs (I'd recommend 2WEI and Tommee Profit), my number one song for last year on Spotify was "Reckless Driver" by Lizzy McAlpine, and currently I've been listening to "Little Shop of Horrors" revamped album with Jonathon Groff and Tammy Blanchard.

So yeah my music taste is scattered and varied, lol

I FOUND THE SONG THAT GOES TO THAT ONE ANIMATION OF DSMP HEHEHEHEH IMA USE IT ON MY NEXT ANIMATION LESS GOd

[sparrowsabre7]

After seeing "Barbie" and separately hearing 2WEI's version of "Toxic" I knew I wanted to attempt a mashup to recut "Barbie" to look like a horror or thriller. Ultimately I only had the trailers to work with so it's not as slick as I'd ultimately like and it's also pretty hard to make a good chunk of "Barbie" look intense, but I gave it a go.

Me, usually: Look, I recognise I was into the Dream SMP, I have sadly moved on. I will never call myself cringe for it because I geniunely flourished in the depth of the story created and the fandoms arts and stories.

Me when that fucking song appeared in the hyperia opening ceremony: hwat

The collab with 2WEI on this is SPECIAL.

Lyrics for those not familiar with it:

Early in the morning I still get a little bit nervous

Fighting my anxiety constantly I try to control it

Even when I know it's been forever I can still feel the spin

Hurts when I remember and I never wanna feel it again

Don't know if you get it cause I can't express how thankful I am

That you were always with me when it hurts I know that you understand

I don't wanna lose control

Nothing I can do anymore

Trying every day when I hold my breath

Spinning out in space pressing on my chest

I don't wanna lose control

Sometimes I still think it's coming but I know it's not

Trying to breathe in and then out but the air gets caught

Cause even though I'm older now and I know how to shake off the past

I wouldn't have made it if I didn't have you holding my hand

I don't wanna lose control

Nothing I can do anymore

Trying every day when I hold my breath

Spinning out in space pressing on my chest

I don't wanna lose control
