#Cady James

[emlan]

This whole bit from M3GAN was probably the funniest scene of any media I've watched this year, so it deserves a little something.

I love when my mum is cringing at age gap relationships in Hollywood, and I'm just sat there knowing I'd marry 90s Robert De Niro in a heartbeat.

If you were to choose four new Presidents to be put onto a second Mount Rushmore, who would they be? Alternatively, who are four non-Presidents that you might choose?

That's a tough one. For the Presidents on the second Mount Rushmore, I think FDR would be a no-brainer. I think I'd also add Ulysses S. Grant and Dwight D. Eisenhower -- not solely because of their Presidencies, but due to their overall importance to American history. The last spot is the hardest to decide upon. I don't think I'd choose anyone who was in office more recently than Eisenhower. Maybe John Adams or James Madison?

As for the four non-Presidents, I'd go with General George C. Marshall, Martin Luther King Jr., Cesar Chavez, and either Alice Paul, Harriet Tubman, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, or Clara Barton.

REAR WINDOW 1954

Why would a man leave his apartment three times on a rainy night with a suitcase and come back three times?

good even great things about m3gan 2023:

- main character, gemma, is a woman who works in tech, excels at her field, and is also not shown to be maternal or even have an interest in being a mother. this is not portrayed as bad. her situation as the adoptive mother of her niece is shown to be against her will and as much as the movie insists she has to be kinder and more understanding to the child (bc everyone should be) it never faults her or shows her deserving of suffering because of her difficulty to become a substitute to the childs mother. it portrays the fractured relationship as complicated because raising a child is difficult and its not something she could have possibly expected. epitome of good aunt bad mother, and thats alright.

- child character, especially girl main child character, who throws tantrums, compartmentalizes her grief, is a little bit selfish and fully characterized as a bit of a brat while never losing her empathetic nature and basic personhood. she is shown to be creative and smart but not to a hollywood-oh-arent-kids-so-amazingly-in-tune-with-everything degree, just in an expected degree for a nine year old. her grief feels true and heavy and also something she is desperate to escape from, forming one of the core themes of the movie in a wonderful way. shes also shown to be emotionally clever through interactions to know when to lie and manipulate others, especially during the filming of ads and scripted material, that make it both clear that she understands the rewards and that she has personal gain to do this. she learns in a believable way and is just a well written character in all sense, especially compared to the way other child characters are written.

- m3gans voice acting and movements were A+

mediocre or downright bad things about m3gan 2023:

- kind of everything else?

sirius and james would definitely be obsessed with mean girls (the movie) bc i said so

(i’m rewatching it for like the bajillionth time and the 2nd time in as many days)

like they would legitimately be saying the lines along with the movie and be acting it out too

remus would be so done with them (he was also extremely amused but would never let them know that)

lily would find it so funny and would be behind them reciting the lines too but silently so that they could have their lil moment

ALSO… they would def start wearing pink on wednesdays for a while

AND… would raise harry on it. like they would just make him watch it at least once a week since before he could even talk or sit up on his own

james being a virgo in showverse canon makes sooo much sense. only we would respond to genuine concern and advice with "wow... so youre in love with me"

[theirdiaries]

∘⡊ ☾ ˚⊹ from @mazeheart: ❛ wait, did you just say that i'm cute? ❜

⊹   —   “  well,  yeah  !  ”  she  exclaimed,  smiling  over  at  cady.  “  you  are  cute  !  you  look  good  today  !  did  you  do  something  different  ?  ”  her  grin  never  fell,  head  tilted  as  she  studied  her  friend.

You think the ColdFlash fandom is tiny? Try being in the COMIC ColdFlash fandom! It's like me, three other fans, a rapidly melting ice cube, and Bobby Moynihan.

being a fan of something with like 30 total fans on tumblr is funny bc you get like 12 notes on a post and you're like wow the gang's all here

[hoshikostar]

It's such a shame that the only thing I actually like James Corden's performance in is a mediocre Disneyfication of one of my favorite musicals.

James is a pretty good baker in Into The Woods, but by God did Disney drop the ball on the subtleties and innuendo in the source material.

7, 22 & 37 for Cady :3

Thanks Red, these were really fun to think about. I'm gonna do this out of order to put the cut lower in the post.

22. What does your character like in other people? He likes people who don't take themselves too seriously. They don't have to be jokesters, but they gotta be a little loose. He had trouble getting along with Rodney at first because he read Rodney as a self-serious asshole. He's incredibly weak to tattoos and piercings and will immediately try to make friends with anyone who crests his very low "cool" threshold with those (read: Tristan and Declan). He also likes people who are passionate about something so he can egg them on, and people who can make unexpected connections in their casual jokes that catch him by surprise.

37. Is your character more concerned with defending their honor, or protecting their status? He cares a little bit about his status as Cool Guy and also Captain but honor matters way more to him. If he acts honorably and people perceive him that way then obviously he's a Cool Guy and someone people want to keep doing business with. He loves playful insults but won't tolerate people actually talking shit (well, maybe unless it's true). Occasionally he does run into trouble where defending his honor or someone else's costs him a customer or an opportunity or lands him in a "sir this is a Wendy's" moment but he mostly just shrugs it off. (But there has to be at least one "this is a Wendy's" moment that he looks back on with embarrassment even if he still thinks he was right.)

7. Does your character have recurring themes in their nightmares? I'm pretty early in the planning stages for this story, but I have a tendency to forget about dreams and nightmares so this was interesting to dig into. Before his disappearance, Cady rarely had nightmares, and they were in response to weird experiences or spooky media. Now they're much more common and they do have a central recurring theme: that in the emptiness of space, no one can hear you scream.

There are two general forms of the nightmare. The first is a sort of abstract one, the kind you also have in normal dreams where you're on a boat but it's also your dad's Wal-Mart. Here, the store is meant to be the planet he's stuck on. There's some kind of monster somewhere in it, and he's been around the store a thousand times but there are no doors, and he's not even certain that there's anyone else inside, because they seem to disappear if he looks away too long. He ends up on the PA system, trying to page for someone, anyone, using his calm captain voice, while he can feel the unseen, perhaps unknowable monster getting closer. The dream ends shortly before it reaches him, as the absolute certainty he is going to die settles in.

This second one is a bit more graphic, so mild warning for claustrophobia, suffocation/difficulty breathing, and, uh, impending death.

The second builds on his real experience sitting in an ejected racer seat, which is its own little short-term life-support capsule. Sometimes he's on the surface of the planet, sometimes out in space, but its distress signal keeps droning out with no response. He knows that someone's supposed to save him, but they're just not coming. They're not picking up his signal. Maybe it's blocked by the landscape and there's not enough of an atmosphere for it to reflect off of. Maybe their equipment is just not listening. But the tone goes on and on and the capsule, which is literally only a bit larger than the seat itself, starts to seem smaller and smaller, like it might crush him before anyone arrives. It inevitably starts to crack at the seams. The smallest gap between the pieces is enough to let the air out. The low oxygen warning lights come on. He's breathing evil, thin atmosphere, an unrealistic but insidious green that feels like it's infecting his lungs with every breath, or trying and failing to breathe vacuum. Now his lungs feel smaller and smaller until there's no space for air—there's no air—and he knows with leaden certainty that this wasn't how things were supposed to go, but it's too late now.

Then he wakes up and wishes like hell he remembered in the dream how it was going to end so maybe it would be less horrifying.
