okay let's not pretend i didn't go straight to this one: 0:33 onwards of the biggest decision - instant tears, brings me to my knees, yanking at my hair, howling at the moon

ok yes i have major feelings at the motif arrangement in not kind, its literally like hearing crowley's inner monologue to me it's so soft and vulnerable and i want to give him a squidge

i don't want to talk about fallen angel it hurts but fuck it im gonna, im such a whore for string swells and 1:17 onwards just does me in, the lilting and the rides and falls is just superb fuuuuuck

4:51 of catch the bullet!!! the little snare trill!!! gOD and then the stRINGS? then that brass ok no i can't talk about it

oh crowley and muriel is so gorgeous and serene i love it sm

love how hard he's smoking goes at like 0:33, it's nails, and then slam at 0:53? CHRIST it's so 'theme that got left in the car' i love it and it's perfect powerful crowley score yesyesyesyesye

monsieur azirophale [sic?] is so silly im giggling kicking my feet twirling my hair

okay but if there is anything that sums up like the ✨magic✨ of GO for me is the 0:00 - 0:16 of the candelabra it's so preeeeeetty

okay now i won't lie. this is the one i truly, truly wanted. my favourite scene in the whole mf show is the lift arrives/Going Up sequence, and the MUSIC hit me like a freight train when i was watching it, i was practically thrown back in my seat, like if i was feeling at all sleepy at 5am on premiere day the music in this scene woke me tf Up, the music in this bit would resurrect me from my grave it is That GOOD (the circle, just listen to all of it it's perfect) (ok actually i will say that the electricity noises in the show did add to the✨ambiance✨ but that's minor)

10/10 soundtrack god bless us all

Tenet (2020, Christopher Nolan)

[infinityinakiss]

me just casually watching around the world in 80 days and vibing to the theme song that was composed by HANS ZIMMER AND CHRISTIAN LUNDBERG. WHAT THE FUCK.

[skept-a-cleptic]

The end of Tenet with Inception music

...

Every time I hear this track it's not the end of Inception that I see it's this part right here. Thought I'd share the pain.

The ATWI80D theme song goes so fucking hard

Imperobator

Imperobator — рід тероподів з групи Paraves, що мешкали під час маастрихтського етапу пізньої крейди на території сучасної Антарктиди. До нього належить єдиний вид, I. antarcticus, знайдений в острівній формації Сноу-Хілл. У 2019 році автори опису припустили, що Imperobator був приблизно такого ж розміру, як і Utahraptor.

David Tennant and a Verne adaptation. Sure, OK, that's my thing. But then I hear Hans Zimmer. I mean I can actually hear him before even seeing his name at the opening credits. WHAT! Perfection. This summer I got to hear his music live, which meant that I saw the amazing Tina Guo as well. Damn, what a magical night that was.

[variousqueerthings]

partner and I watched the david tennant around the world in 80 days:

somewhat uneven opening act, was quite a bit of emotional stuff with passeportout that wasn't introduced aaaall that well and never really gets paid off either, and could have been better with a few tweaks

however each episode then got progressively better than the last

and was really into its final thesis, which was shockingly not about romantic love, even though there was a whole big setup around it, really appreciated that (I mean, sort of about romantic love, but not romantic love as the way to fix your life/the idea that you can just sort out things by being in love -- more about letting romantic love go actually)

literally a qpp type triad between fogg, passepartout, and fix??? you're waiting for the narrative to do the inevitably split in which fix and passepartout have their romance and then there's fogg's story next to it, but that... just doesn't really happen? and fogg explicitly compares his former great romantic love to the relationship he's built with the two of them???

whole episode dedicated to honouring bass reeves, former slave turned us marshal, on whom the western genre is basically based, and I'd say it's my favourite of the episodes overall

whole episode dedicated to honouring jane digby, english former aristocrat who scandalised everyone by having a ton of lovers and eventually marrying sexy younger sheikh medjuel el mezrab in damascus

really enjoyed the fact that it was an international collaboration, and you could tell. lot of fantastic actors from all over the world, lot of joy and respect given to their presence and said world

struggled a tad with being quite as open about the truth of english colonialism as I would have wanted personally, but it does speak to it, and it is a continued thread -- could have done more, glad it did some

there's an infuriating thread of how passepartout gets treated as a black working class man, but it's intentional, if not quite as acknowledged to his face as I wished (but then there's a thing that happens at the end which speaks to a delicious reversal of roles so all is forgiven -- well passepartout forgives them way earlier on, but me on his behalf)

abigail fix is a very well-written character. she gets to be good at the things she's good at, while also containing both the ability to be angry at the limitations pushed onto her, and have her own biases as a white upperclass british woman

all in all, it's got stuff that's wobbly for sure, but a lot of things that are annoying are also intentionally so (the fact, for example, that both fogg and fix don't initially take in passepartout's perspective and move through life with that blessed british "I can do what I want" colonialist attitude)

once the puzzle is complete it's so very very satisfying to have watched

loved the final scene with all my aroace qpp-having heart

david tennant spends so much of it being just the most miserable drippy former public school boy, he's drooping, he's sad, he's hurt and...

so spoiler for one scene here but:

he gets his shirt stripped off him and flogged which was also Pretty Neat.

“Oceans” goes through a similar case like last year's "Deserts" where it focuses on a biome that’s not my top favorite but it’s at least cooler and wetter than a desert and showcasing the unique creatures that lived during that time.

We are introduced to one of the smallest mosasaurs, Phosphorosaurus that hides in coral reefs during the day and hunts bioluminescent fish at night since the bigger predators wouldn’t be out at night. I loved the little detail of it sticking out its forked tongue since it is a reptile. We also see a Hoffman’s mosasaur hunt some Tuarangisaurus in a similar way to a great white including a slow-motion sequence of it breaking out of the water with one in its jaw and it’s quite terrifying seeing how fast it was and it was interesting learning about how that worked in the behind-the-scenes clip for the episode. Although, I didn't like how they used some archived footage from the previous season for the mosasaur. In Antarctica, a family of Morturneria have migrated to the colder waters in search of food with their techniques reminding me of walruses looking for clams.

Next, we have a fantastic sequence showing a group of bird-like Hesperornis hunting a fish in a bait ball but are soon joined and hunted by large predatory fish called Xiphactinus. I was excited to see Hesperornis again after seeing them in “Chased by Sea Monsters” with Nigel Marven and I was expecting the Xiphactinus to return in that sequence as well after leaving the huge, traumatizing impression on me back then.

We focus on some ammonites and this episode really had me appreciate them more than I had then. I’m not saying they’re not important to me, but still. Baby ammonites hatch in a tide pool and face the many challenges before being big enough to go into deeper waters. They had a cute look to go with, and I loved seeing them using tricks like fire ants by huddling together to move to another pool. Later, we see them growing into Nostoceras in a seagrass field along with other ammonites. It was cool seeing the many different species from the larger Baculites to the paperclip shaped Diplomoceras and Hans Zimmer's music for that sequence really nailed the nature of the setting.

3.5/4 stars.
