Uncanny X-men #140

The Jamie-Heather-Logan roommate situation is so funny to me. The way they talk about them here is like they are yuppie couple and anxious rescue dog

Alright, this is officially becoming my master post of Wolvicather content, because one day, many years from now, someone’s going to ask “Wait you ship Wolverine/Vindicator/Heather??? Why would you do that” and I will show them my source material

Because what do you MEAN Logan left to protect them from himself. What do you MEAN they begged him to stay. Why is this so romantic for no reason

Edit: issue is Uncanny 147

X-Men TAS S2 Ep5 "Repo Man"

Ok so just got to the Alpha Flight vs Wolverine episode, and why the hell is Vindicator SO PRESSED about Wolverine leaving? The vibes Wolverine is having with this married couple are unhinged, this is in no way a work-appropriate response on Vindicator's part. And no one else on the team is behaving this way. The rest of Alpha Flight is all "You were one of us, we miss you, we want you back on the team" but also they're following Vindicator's orders to hunt down a previous teammate and force him to be on the team again, all the while Vindicator is screaming "You left us for ANOTHER TEAM! What do the X-Men have that we don't?? You deserve the Torture Machine because you LEFT US."

Meanwhile his wife is gently tending Wolverine's pain as she operates the Torture Machine, because she wanted it to be as soft as possible for his sake, and no touch could be softer than hers. All the while we keep getting flashbacks of husband and wife finding the feral Wolverine after the Weapon X program, nursing him back to health, and taming his wild nature with their love and affection. It's mostly Heather in the flashbacks, so it seemed like a setup for jealousy and/or a love triangle, but no. We find out later that Vindicator was also gently taming Wolverine's wild nature with his love and affection.

I don't usually jump to shipping people outside of canon, especially not pre-2000s shows where I don't think the writers intended shipping, but this is absurd. Vindicator is not responding in a normal way, and nobody else is responding like this. They're a foil for Scott and Jean, right? They have to be. Team leader husband married to sweet and compassionate wife. But like... Vindicator/Heather/Wolverine had to be an actual throuple. There's no way a rational person would react this way to their coworker finding opportunities elsewhere. And no one else in the episode is reacting this way, it's literally just Vindicator getting so mad. This man, Scott's foil, is acting like Wolverine cheated with Scott by joining the X-Men.

Which like. what is this trying to say about the Scott/Jean/Logan triangle. Or the fact Logan keeps a hidden picture of both Scott and Jean, in a 90s superhero show. Did the writers do this deliberately? They. they had to know what they were implying, right? And this episode was them doubling down on "polyamorous king Wolverine."

Truly, the women of the Sherlock Holmes canon and the surrounding media are beautiful and excellent and messy and awful and human, human, human... and the fandom does not deserve them.

#83daysofoutlander☆

He was interrupted by a sudden bang as the door flew open and rebounded from the wall. Startled, we turned to look. In the doorway stood a young girl I had never seen before. She was perhaps fifteen or sixteen, with long flaxen hair and big blue eyes. The eyes were somewhat bigger than normal, and filled with an expression of horrified shock as she stared at me. Her gaze moved slowly from my tangled hair to my bare breasts, and down the slopes of my naked body, until it encountered Jamie, lying prone between my thighs, white-faced with a shock equal to hers. “Daddy!” she said, in tones of total outrage. “Who is that woman?”

“Daddy?” I said blankly. “Daddy?”

Jamie had turned to stone when the door opened. Now he shot bolt upright, snatching at the fallen quilt. He shoved the disheveled hair out of his face, and glared at the girl. “What in the name of bloody hell are you doing here?” he demanded. Red-bearded, naked, and hoarse with fury, he was a formidable sight, and the girl took a step backward, looking uncertain. Then her chin firmed and she glared back at him. “I came with Mother!” The effect on Jamie could not have been greater had she shot him through the heart. He jerked violently, and all the color went out of his face. It came flooding back, as the sound of rapid footsteps sounded on the wooden staircase. He leapt out of bed, tossing the quilt hastily in my direction, and grabbed his breeks. He had barely pulled them on when another female figure burst into the room, skidded to a halt, and stood staring, bug-eyed, at the bed. “It’s true!” She whirled toward Jamie, fists clenched against the cloak she still wore. “It’s true! It’s the Sassenach witch! How could ye do such a thing to me, Jamie Fraser?” “Be still, Laoghaire!” he snapped. “I’ve done nothing to ye!” I sat up against the wall, clutching the quilt to my bosom and staring. It was only when he spoke her name that I recognized her. Twenty-odd years ago, Laoghaire MacKenzie had been a slender sixteen-year-old, with rose-petal skin, moonbeam hair, and a violent—and unrequited—passion for Jamie Fraser. Evidently, a few things had changed. She was nearing forty and no longer slender, having thickened considerably. The skin was still fair, but weathered, and stretched plumply over cheeks flushed with anger. Strands of ashy hair straggled out from under her respectable white kertch. The pale blue eyes were the same, though—they turned on me again, with the same expression of hatred I had seen in them long ago. “He’s mine!” she hissed. She stamped her foot. “Get ye back to the hell that ye came from, and leave him to me! Go, I say!” As I made no move to obey, she glanced wildly about in search of a weapon. Catching sight of the blue-banded ewer, she seized it and drew back her arm to fling it at me. Jamie plucked it neatly from her hand, set it back on the bureau, and grasped her by the upper arm, hard enough to make her squeal. He turned her and shoved her roughly toward the door. “Get ye downstairs,” he ordered. “I’ll speak wi’ ye presently, Laoghaire.”

“You’ll speak wi’ me? Speak wi’ me, is it!” she cried. Face contorted, she swung her free hand at him, raking his face from eye to chin with her nails. He grunted, grabbed her other wrist, and dragging her to the door, pushed her out into the passage and slammed the door to and turned the key. By the time he turned around again, I was sitting on the edge of the bed, fumbling with shaking hands as I tried to pull my stockings on. “I can explain it to ye, Claire,” he said. “I d-don’t think so,” I said. My lips were numb, along with the rest of me, and it was hard to form words. I kept my eyes fixed on my feet as I tried—and failed—to tie my garters. “Listen to me!” he said violently, bringing his fist down on the table with a crash that made me jump. I jerked my head up, and caught a glimpse of him towering over me. With his red hair tumbled loose about his shoulders, his face unshaven, bare-chested, and the raw marks of Laoghaire’s nails down his cheek, he looked like a Viking raider, bent on mayhem. I turned away to look for my shift. It was lost in the bedclothes; I scrabbled about among the sheets. A considerable pounding had started up on the other side of the door, accompanied by shouts and shrieks, as the commotion attracted the other inhabitants of the house. “You’d best go and explain things to your daughter,” I said, pulling the crumpled cotton over my head. “She’s not my daughter!” “No?” My head popped out of the neck of the shift, and I lifted my chin to stare up at him. “And I suppose you aren’t married to Laoghaire, either?” “I’m married to you, damn it!” he bellowed, striking his fist on the table again. “I don’t think so.” I felt very cold. My stiff fingers couldn’t manage the lacing of the stays; I threw them aside, and stood up to look for my gown, which was somewhere on the other side of the room—behind Jamie. “I need my dress.” “You’re no going anywhere, Sassenach. Not until—” “Don’t call me that!” I shrieked it, surprising both of us. He stared at me for a moment, then nodded. “All right,” he said quietly. He glanced at the door, now reverberating under the force of the pounding. He drew a deep breath and straightened, squaring his shoulders. “I’ll go and settle things. Then we’ll talk, the two of us. Stay here, Sass—Claire.” He picked up his shirt and yanked it over his head. Unlocking the door, he stepped out into the suddenly silent corridor and closed it behind him.

I managed to pick up the dress, then collapsed on the bed and sat shaking all over, the green wool crumpled across my knees. I couldn’t think in a straight line. My mind spun in small circles around the central fact; he was married. Married to Laoghaire! And he had a family. And yet he had wept for Brianna. “Oh, Bree!” I said aloud. “Oh, God, Bree!” and began to cry—partly from shock, partly at the thought of Brianna. It wasn’t logical, but this discovery seemed a betrayal of her, as much as of me—or of Laoghaire. The thought of Laoghaire turned shock and sorrow to rage in a moment. I rubbed a fold of green wool savagely across my face, leaving the skin red and prickly. Damn him! How dare he? If he had married again, thinking me dead, that was one thing. I had half-expected, half-feared it. But to marry that woman—that spiteful, sneaking little bitch who had tried to murder me at Castle Leoch…but he likely didn’t know that, a small voice of reason in my head pointed out. “Well, he should have known!” I said. “Damn him to hell, how could he take her, anyway?” The tears were rolling heedlessly down my face, hot spurts of loss and fury, and my nose was running. I groped for a handkerchief, found none, and in desperation, blew my nose at last on a corner of the sheet. It smelled of Jamie. Worse, it smelled of the two of us, and the faint, musky lingerings of our pleasure. There was a small tingling spot on the inside of my thigh, where Jamie had nipped me, a few minutes before. I brought the flat of my hand down hard on the spot in a vicious slap, to kill the feeling. “Liar!” I screamed. I grabbed the pitcher Laoghaire had tried to throw at me, and hurled it myself. It crashed against the door in an explosion of splinters.

Dreamgirls (2006)

Dreamgirls is not based on a true story but you’ll swear otherwise. While the film takes much inspiration from the history of the Motown record label and incorporates actual historical events into its story, the reason it feels so real are the characters and the drama. The ensemble cast all give such good performances and the material they’ve been given is so deep they all feel like real people. That’s enough to recommend Dreamgirls already but there's so much more: great musical numbers, a stellar production design, confident direction by Bill Condon (who also wrote the screenplay) and tons of re-watch value.

In 1962, in Detroit, Michigan, Effie White (Jennifer Hudson), Deena Jones (Beyoncé Knowles) and Lorrell Robinson (Anika Noni Rose) are “The Dreamettes”. After appearing at an amateur R&B talent show, The Dreamettes and Effie’s younger songwriter brother C.C. (Keith Robinson) are recruited by car salesman - and aspiring music manager - Curtis Taylor Jr. (Jamie Foxx) to sing as a backup for star Jimmy “Thunder” Early (Eddie Murphy). The story follows the Dreamettes’ rise to fame as their new manager becomes increasingly manipulative.

The ’60s and ‘70s era music scene is unfamiliar to me and not exactly the kind of music I gravitate towards (for the record, my taste in music falls under the “crap” category). It means a lot, then, that I was instantly able to “recognize” the songs featured in this musical. All of the numbers are from the Broadway musical or newly written for the movie and incorporated in a mix of diegetic and non-diegetic fashion. Every piece is a river of honey in your ear and surprisingly, Beyoncé Knowles ends up kind of playing second banana to both Jennifer Hudson… and Eddie Murphy. I don’t know if it’s hilarious or heartbreaking that my DVD of Dreamgirls featured a trailer for Norbit before the main event. As Jimmy, Murphy is incredible. There’s a particular scene where, tired of being asked to perform another soulful number, he breaks into an impromptu rap where he has to get his orchestra to play a new beat on the fly. It’s pure movie magic and the entire film is worth the price of admission just to see Murphy in full form in that one scene.

There’s a pervasive and consistent joy of filmmaking throughout Dreamgirls. Every frame looks terrific and the actors all give excellent performances. We’ve already mentioned some of them but now, I want to single out Jamie Foxx as Curtis Taylor Junior. His transition from sympathetic to villainous is so smooth it’s hard to tell at which point exactly your opinion shifts and part of this is because all of the characters - including the Dreamgirls - are fully-rounded human beings complete with flaws. Without a doubt, Effie White gets the short end of the stick in this story but there are times where she kind of gets what she deserves. You hate yourself for feeling that way, which demonstrates the quality of the drama. Obviously, credit is due to Henry Krieger and Tom Eyen, who wrote the original musical, but this film adaptation is not merely a shot-for-shot re-enactment. This is a real movie with distinct made-for-the-movie scenes and choices.

With a budget of $75-$80 million, Dreamgirls is one of the most expensive films ever made to feature an all-Black cast. That realization came with a bit of waryness from me. Ever since my back-to-back viewing of Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom and One Night in Miami, I’m just kind of done with “struggle” movies. We’ve had some great ones but there’s more we can do with All-Black casts than show them getting beaten down, abused, raped, taken advantage of, etc. This is another reason to see Dreamgirls. While the topic of inequality is touched on in two key scenes, this is mostly an engaging drama that could (in theory) feature any kind of actors. This musical has the same sort of appeal as A Star is Born because of the characters, the music and the skill used to bring everything together.

Despite everything Dreamgirls does right, it will still be a hard sell for people who don’t like musicals. It's also worth noting that while the protagonists are rich, other characters don’t get the development they should. Sharon Leal’s Michelle Morris, for instance. She's an important character that's always kept out of reach. Ultimately, the flaws (you could probably find more if you really looked hard) don’t matter when we consider the film’s entertainment and eye-candy value. This is such a good-looking film and when we consider the way it recreates historical (or “historical”) events and elements, it was love at first sight for me.

Jamie is by far the best part of this book...

We are having a very corpse bride style story here with a zombie wedding and everything... also love Heather being like “oh no I know all about dead bodies coming back to life” in regard to Mac coming bac like... 3 times now...  but to be fair this is the Marvel universe, all of them will deal with something likethis at some point...

My Best of 2022: Supporting Actress

My Best of 2022 is a series of annual lists in which I pick the best of the best from 2022, all leading up to my official picks for My Top 10 Films of 2022.

I almost put Stephanie Hsu in the top spot, but I’ve been thinking about how well Kerry Condon conveyed her voice of reason throughout The Banshees of Inisherin a lot, lately. She was a quiet powerhouse who faced off beautifully with every single one of her gargantuan cast-mates. I probably had the most fun with Hsu’s performance, though, and really, she, Jamie Lee Curtis, Kate Hudson and Keke Palmer are the most fun performances of the year... scene-stealers, the lot of them. In an unprecedented move, I’ve edited this to include two performances from Women Talking. Claire Foy and Jessie Buckley were incredible, and definitely deserve their spots I’ve placed them in. Bumped were Sadie Sink for The Whale and Carey Mulligan for She Said.

Okay, it’s time…

My Top 10 Performances by a Supporting Actress in 2022! 

1. Kerry Condon in The Banshees of Inisherin

2. Stephanie Hsu in Everything Everywhere All at Once

3. Claire Foy in Women Talking

4. Janelle Monáe in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

5. Jamie Lee Curtis in Everything Everywhere All at Once 

6. Kate Hudson in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

7. Hong Chau in The Whale 

8. Jessie Buckley in Women Talking

9. Keke Palmer in Nope

10. Angela Bassett in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

Enjoy!
