Self Indulgent Birthday Post: 2023
notes: Spoilers!, probably. Yay, it's my birthday again! Enjoy some of my finest unfinished work!
Tumblr media
Oh? You have both my interest and attention!
Tumblr media
Booooo.... (this disappointment brought to you by The Young Brewmaster’s Adventure, which happens to be the prequel to Blood of Youth)
Recap Recycle Bin
Tumblr media
So many dramas and never enough time to write a full review. Read on! 
Dominator of Martial Gods
Tumblr media
tl:dr for this drama
Each episode is 35 minutes long, feels like 3,500 minutes, and delivers maybe 10 minutes worth of story. Impressive! 
Tumblr media
We waste a great deal of time in the first few episodes watching Qin Chen and the bootlicking alchemist refine a needle that will allow our hero to activate his bloodline. Intriguing, because you often hear dramas refer to treasures being refined into weapons, but you never see the process. There's a reason for this- it does not make for compelling viewing. But that does not stop us from standing around arguing about the specs and adding things to the oven. This process was more fun when Chu Wanning just takes you up to the lake. On a technical note, I am enamored of the way the ever present green screened background makes no attempt to be in scale with the human actors.
My Deepest Dream
Ooh, a plot with a time loop, evil birds, superpowers, getting sucked into the Marianas Trench when you just wanted to go on a scuba diving excursion and JIN HAN!!! But, as always, there's a glitch in the matrix.
Tumblr media
Our heroine realizes she has lost a year of her life and no one has noticed. No one except the astrophysics PhD candidate turned car mechanic Wu Yu (JIN HAN!!!). Wu Yu divulges that he can read a phone screen at 10 kilometers. But mostly he uses his special eyes to keep an elaborate dossier on the comings and goings of the FL, who lives across the street from the garage he works at. Is that creepy or romantic?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
don’t be silly, if it were a Marvel movie we’d be having an interminable CGI sky battle 
Till the End of the Moon
Meet Tantai Jin. As you may have noticed from his costume design, he's totally evil.
Tumblr media
He's a goal-oriented CEO who's turned the Devil Sect into a high reliability organization that generates impactful customer experiences (annihilation). I bet he's evil enough to use six sigma. But where Tantai Jin truly shines is personal branding. You may not be buying what he's selling, but product recognition is through the roof.
Tumblr media
Tantai Jin seen here working out of his travel office: a flaming, flying boudoir with melting skull detail. This is why CEOs should never make more than 10x what the average worker does.
Circle of Love
I can see why the Republican period was relatively short. Everybody setting fire to each other's estates, staying out late ballroom dancing, getting uniforms tailored, making sure there are enough manacles to chain the female lead to a bed... it doesn't really leave a lot of time for governance.
Tumblr media
We start out, as we generally do, with a clean sweep of the FL's family, in this case via a big ol' raging house fire. Where is everyone? Or even anyone? Even Maid's Revenge scraped up some extras to be dead family members.
My Kung Fu Girlfriend
Slow your roll, it ain't GL.
You know what they say- it's not whether you win or lose the MMORPG, it's how you min max all your stats and then act like an ass in chat about it.
Tumblr media
Meet Huang Xiao Yu. She clearly did not pay to win because she is the low XP real life martial sister of a kung fu champion. In this drama, she'll level up in love and life with the help of an OP MMO NPC who escapes her game and shows up uninvited in the real world.
The Antarctic Octopus
Not to be confused with the 2020 film Big Octopus. I guess that's the great thing about having an audience of over a billion people- even the most niche interest has plenty of content.
Tumblr media
This is how you dress when you visit your Uncle Pete in Antarctica.
In this movie: monsters, explosions, a supercharged ice jalopy and a dedicated ignorance of the laws of physics usually only seen in a Fast and Furious film. But credit where it's due: The Antarctic Octopus delivers. Only 12 seconds in and we get our first tentacle!
Tumblr media
available free on youtube although how bravely they were fighting is up for debate

In the Day We Flipped
My post of the year!
Tumblr media
Getting over 500 likes on a review? Unexpected.
Forgetting to add a link back to my other recaps? Priceless.
Bloody Romance
still my favorite drama
Tumblr media
when your grandma’s a zombie and she was left in a cave to guard a tiny box with one (1) restorative pill in it and she’s suspended by her hair but her hair is also like tentacles that can kill people and she thinks you’re your mom but she still loves you. 💚💚💚 But then she starts screaming and tries to strangle you with her hair.
Heroes
2nd favorite drama
you know something’s good when you have a file called ‘sappy su mengzhen yang wuxie edits.txt’
Tumblr media
go get your man, Wuxie!
pinboard full of recaps!

How we wanted to become pretty in the past. How we were hurt by others. And even how we wanted to be born anew. All of our memories. Our lives were so alike.

one thing about ptj's writing that always leaves a bad taste in my mouth is sometimes i feel he doesn't completely grasp the issues of abuse and sexual trauma, mostly and majorly for the female characters, but the male characters too.
take for example mira getting sexually assaulted by the cult leader and camp instructor, zoe's transaction with logan, club vivi, vin'mom being raped and killed by the shaman, sujin being abused and preyed upon and sexually assaulted before getting beaten to death by taejin... ALL of this feels so catatonic, almost unnecessary in its cruelty. this is a horrible world no doubt. but whatever he inflicts to his female characters seems to be done purely for the sake of shock value, almost like an indelible grief or hurt or helplessness a MALE character has to overcome in his path to nirvana. it is never shown what the woman feels about her own violation, no impact of it can be seen on her own life before she dies or simply forgets and moves on (kinda telling of the author's attitude towards how victims ought to react...).
then lets talk about the male victims. daniel gets stalked, goo and gun and eli were all minors who trained under a man who unironically touches people's genitals and brags about doing so, olly gets raped, eli gets groomed (i will not argue here about this one), sinu is shown naked often with the woman who brainwashed him. not mentioned in the comic but should be pondered upon is the fact that jake and jiho were in juvenile prison, a place with alarmingly high rates of sex crimes. dg is an idol who deals with invasive fans (sasaengs in real life are legitimately terrifying). seongji and vin were the ritual vessels for a cult. but this aspect of their trauma gets completely brushed under the rug, as if even alluding to it would take away from their strength and uhhh, masculine nature.
much to be thought about his treatment of his own characters...

han joowon is a LOVERBOY. i don't care! don't argue with me!
once he feels secure in his relationship with dongsik i truly think he's the sweetest, most chivalrous boyfriend you'll ever meet.
dongsik can never get into a car without joowon holding it open. dongsik can never sit down at a restaurant without joowon pulling the chair. dongsik can never walk on the sidewalk closest to the street.
dongsik's cold? joowon is shrugging off his jacket immediately. dongsik's hungry? oh, how convenient that joowon stashed his favorite snacks in the glove compartment! dongsik's sick? joowon is at the stove with an apron tied around his waist cooking chicken soup, AND he'll rub vaporub on dongsik's chest to help clear his cold.
his love language is 100% acts of service and he never fails to make dongsik feel like the most loved man on the planet!

NRS is terrified of portraying queer relationships in Mortal Kombat, having little representation in their games.
Mileena and Tanya are in love, but Umgadi rules forbid their relationship, so they can't officially be together. We get a few scenes of them expressing their attraction to each other and some intro dialogues about their relationship, but that’s it. However, in the Khaos Reign DLC, Empress Tanya is married to Emperor Rain in an alternate timeline. The two of them are heavily affectionate and express their feelings. NRS gave Mileena and Tanya rules restricting their relationship, but Empress Tanya and Emperor Rain freely express affection toward each other.
NRS changed Cyrax and Sektor, who were originally men, into women in Mortal Kombat 1, solely to have romantic connections with Kuai Liang and Bi Han. They could've kept them men and made them queer but made two of them women because it apparently would’ve been "too much." Even Hanzo, who is heavily shipped with Kuai Liang, was changed into a child while the former cryomancer is married off to Harumi.
Lastly, there's Kung Jin, who has never been in a relationship with another male character in Mortal Kombat. In the original story line, he was ostracized by his family for being gay. Currently, Kung Jin has been mentioned in the new timeline, but we haven't officially seen him and have no idea what NRS plans to do with him.
NRS is afraid of allowing their characters to be queer and having a few main relationships be LGBTQIA+.
