Watching Louis descend into rage filled madness while plotting the demise of the coven, seeing him enter the theatre and soaking it with gasoline while the troupe slept, him reclaiming Claudia’s dress and her journals, his rage igniting the room, getting to listen to the coven scream as they’re burned to death or hacked apart or both, Eglee and Celeste caught completely by surprise and exploding in flames on their bikes, Louis baiting Santiago and not just cutting his head off (which I hope he felt every agonizing second of) but kicking it away like a fucking soccer ball
#louis meowing at the skeletal cat took me out#i have rewatched the coven’s demise way more than i care to admit#but it’s one of my favorite parts of the book#vengeance is so sweet#and the show didn’t disappoint#especially with santiago’s death 🥰 loved every second#could’ve done without his grotesque confession abt claudia’s ashes tho#like jfc#fuck santiago. hope he enjoys hell#interview with the vampire#louis de pointe du lac#santiago#eglee iwtv#celeste iwtv#iwtv spoilers#iwtv s2

anywayyy I want a whole new series after this that just shows the three years agatha spent in westview from everyone else’s perspective
#aaa spoilers#agatha all along#agatha harkness#txt#that interrogation scene was amazing#love kathryn hahn#and joe locke was so good too#i actually really liked this episode#not super surprised there’s been such vitriol tho#like the bi/pan phobia and gold star lesbianism has been there since almost the beginning#like there were a couple posts that went mask off about it#but i just ignored them and moved on because like I /know/ it’s not a majority thing. like just a small subset that I had the misfortune#of seeing when going through tags#but yeah not totally shocked that for those fans it would extend to gay guys as well#i get being disappointed with the ep. especially if it’s not your fave or you don’t like flashbacks or it just didn’t work for you#but there are a handful that are being so insane about it#like its a tv show… it’s not that deep babes

“The changes are what Rick wanted so if you don’t like it, it’s on you.” This is literally a reply on a comment that I left on a tiktok that was explaining what someone did and didn’t like about the latest pjo episode 🙄 Rick can’t even remember what happens in his own books and has been butchering his own characters since the creation of heroes of olympus, that’s not the comeback you think it is. When a show is marketed as a faithful adaptation when it is more accurately a rewrite, people have a right to criticize the show. You aren’t getting a gold medal for liking the show in its entirety. Get off your high horse and let people discuss the show
#literally all i said was that the show was more of a rewrite than an adaptation#and that that’s disappointing#i didn’t even say i didn’t like the show 💀#rr’s dick riders need to get a grip#i just had to get this off my chest. sorry for the rant lmao#skys post

This might not mean anything to anyone but seeing the hate towards deku for losing his quirk and becoming a teacher feels a lot like the discourse about Cars 3 a few years ago when people were mad that Lightning got old and became Cruz’ crew chief.
And what’s crazy is both of them still got their happy ending. Deku still got to be a Hero and Lightning still got to keep racing. And I actually think it’s even better cuz they both have legacies since Deku has Kai, Eri, Kota, and all of his other students and Lightning is getting to train Cruz like Doc trained him. Yet people are/were still upset…
#this is such a random comparison I know#but it just goes to show how often this happens in media and fandom relationships#a character can have the exact ending that they wanted and be completely happy#and people will still be pissed off that it didn’t end the way they wanted it to#don’t get me wrong I’m still disappointed about the bnha ended#but it has literally nothing to do with deku#well actually no I wish we got to see how deku felt about a lot of things more but even then that’s not his fault#that’s still a writing issue and that’s what I had an issue with#anyways…#pixar cars#bnha#midoriya izuku#deku#bkdk#bakudeku#bnha meta#I guess?#mini meta#bnha v Pixar comparison

I have a lot of thoughts.
Ok so I loved it. It was cheesy but I do love the entire hotel’s dynamic. They’re such a messed up found family. It was sweet as hell (pun intended) that they all stayed for Charlie and their home (gosh darn it, the hotel’s become home for them)!
The duet between Chaggie was adorable.
BUT BUT the last two episodes only cemented my intrigue with Charlastor. I do love fanon Charlastor.
But their canon dynamic on its own is so interesting. Like it doesn’t have to be romantic.
It’s in the way he didn’t immediately deal for her soul and yet we just know the deal is going to be heartbreaking.
It’s in the way despite his touch-aversion he is STILL so touchy with her. Like I always thought that it was power play, and to some extent it still is. But he already got the deal he wanted from her, and yet he still caresses her hair, pinches her cheeks, loops her arm around his in some parody of a gentleman’s hold?? (So so touchy, and it even seems different in the past that it seems almost friendly. It was weirdly adorable how proud he was in showing off Cannibal Town to Charlie). Sure it may be manufactured, but part of me thinks that part of it is unconscious because he displays a level of comfort with her similar to what he displays with Rosie, with his friends in other words. He’s called her ‘charming’ twice now!
It’s in the way that despite that Charlie has always been the underdog and mocked, in his own sadistic way, he HAS always believed in her (even as he still thinks it’s all for his own amusement). Even if he’s only using her there’s something to be said that he’s always believed her side was the winning side. He parallels Vaggie in that way I think. He seems proud of her (like seriously I wouldn’t expect him to actually smile sincerely with Charlie’s heartfelt declaration of love for all of them - him of all sinners!) AND here’s the thing, I could easily believe he thinks he will leave everyone high and dry if it’s a choice between him or them. He’s in it for himself after all. But when he sings about seeing and polishing Charlie’s potential, yeah it’s definitely villainous, but it’s striking that whatever mysterious endgame he has in the future still seems to include her.
And the most striking thing for me! We now know that his staff is his weakness, possibly a large source of his power. AND what this heartless sinner who trusts no one hands it over to Charlie?? Twice? He literally puts his weakness in her hands? It shows that (despite not admitting to it) he trusts in Charlie’s inherent goodness that she won’t take advantage of his vulnerability, because for some reason I don’t see him doing that with anyone else.
Charlie and Alastor are foils. Their dynamic forms a crucial part of the show. Absolute goodness versus absolute evil is boring. Alastor’s villainous breakdown is prepping the audience for a heartbreaking betrayal. But again it would be a boring development to watch if Alastor was his usual smug and evil self through it all. For it to have weight, Alastor also has to go through inner turmoil as well. Corrupt the cutie is a favorite trope for a reason. But who’s corrupting who? From Alastor’s breakdown, it’s clear he’s not as in control of everything anymore. I love love Alastor’s unwilling, conflicting, growing attachment to the hotel (which is best shown through his relationship with Charlie, though I would hope he develops his relationships with the other hotel residents too).
And it would be so interesting (and satisfying! and heartbreaking) if Charlie ends up playing Alastor at his own game. If Charlie is the one factor that Alastor doesn’t see coming because he (shock!) actually DOES trust her. In other words, in the same way Charlie (and the hotel) is influencing Alastor to become softer (and in his view, weak), what if Charlie does end up being influenced enough by Alastor’s mentoring that she ends up becoming all the more ruthless. Because I can see a scenario where Charlie ends up ‘betraying’ Alastor for what she deems a justified reason. Alastor’s ruthlessness with the self-righteousness of an angel? Whoo boy. There would be so many layers of dramatic irony there that Alastor’s plan of corrupting Charlie ends up working so well but it ends up hurting him because she’s the chink that manages to get past that smiling armor.
And compounding this inevitable tragedy is the knowledge that this could have all been avoided. Alastor trusts her, but it seems like it’s not enough or his urge for control still wins out in the end. Because for me there was no need to go through a deal. If it’s Charlie, she wouldn’t abandon Alastor and she’d do everything to help free him if that’s what the deal was for because that’s the only deal I can think of that wouldn’t require Charlie to hurt anyone.
Unless the deal isn’t about that. Unless typical power-hungry Alastor’s goal really is to depose Lucifer and to rule Hell. Because Charlie definitely wouldn’t help in that (unless she was forced to through their deal) but perhaps there’s something only she can do that ends up handing power over to Alastor.
That is to say Chaggie fulfills that itch for stability and a happy ending. Charlastor fulfills that itch for angst and push-and-pull. From the beginning, it’s been a tug of war and a battle of wills between Charlie and Alastor and I’m glad to see that theme has remained in the show. Alastor will be the truest test of Charlie’s belief in redemption. It’s exciting to see who’ll win out. Will Alastor corrupt her first or will Charlie redeem him first?
Like I thought I’d only see this is in fic, but heck I didn’t think we would actually get a group hug with Alastor but wow omg I can’t believe we actually got it in the show proper!
That is to say this long spiel is just to say that the show ended up turning me into a multishipper haha.
#hazbin hotel#charlastor#alastor#charlie morningstar#chaggie#don’t come @me pls#like I said I don’t need it to be romantic#but ever since the pilot I’ve been excited for the canon charlastor dynamic#and the show sure didn’t disappoint!#everything that intrigued me about it at first was still there#and got better!#vaggie#to think even vaggie would be smiling that alastor came back?? wow

really did love the action in this episode, the earlier parts with mae and osha, plagueis, the KYBER CRYSTAL BLEEDING but i feel like such a stick in the mud bc i can’t get over what are some truly some baffling writing choices
#the acolyte spoilers#trying to be as hyped as everyone else but man#😞 i really did love every other episode of this show and i think that’s why im so disappointed. i did have high hopes and i feel let down#i didn’t even have specific predictions or anything and i was anticipating osha turning to the dark side and sol dying.#but like. sol felt out of character for a lot of the episode. mae felt so pushed aside by the end and somewhat out of character#vernestra just felt very off. she has the whole season but especially this ep.#idk. i still love the show overall but i can’t say it stuck the landing for me. we’ll have to see where it goes in season 2 ig

I’m going to need people to STOP comparing the badly written king from wish to alma😭
#saw someone say it’s man hating#y’all were not there in 2022 alma was getting attacked left right and centre#like just cause wish couldn’t decide what they wanted to do with him doesn’t mean he’s like alma#this makes me think it’s actually the opposite#if alma was a man she would not have gotten that much hate#look I understand being disappointed about his story and how bad the writing is#but alma never became like a possessed dictator so#also no mirabel would not have forgave him instantly and she didn’t forgive alma instantly#encanto#encanto disney#disneys encanto#mirabel madrigal#abuela alma madrigal#they never showed the king as remorseful so it’s not really the same#alma literally went to the birthplace of her trauma just to see if mirabel was ok#enough alma slander!!!#mirabel encanto#disney’s encanto

Y’know what bothers me the most about Charmed? Specifically in S8, The Charmed Ones are supposed to be the most powerful witches in existence, yet Billie comes in and can just do multiple powers without potions and verbal commands, like… so who’s the most powerful here??
Like the series was fine at the start and then it just got so… blah. Like I know I watched this series all the way through once but I did NOT recall like half of S7 and any of S8 in my current rewatch.
#like am i crazy?????#is it bc i didn’t watch Charmed as it came out organically???#like i only just watched it for the first time a few years ago and watching it again now#but this show was such a let down 😭#i remember watching Buffy after Charmed the first time and thinking that was exactly what i expected out of Charmed#Charmed spoilers#idk maybe i’m the problem#either way i’m a disappointed witch

i personally cannot wait for s8 to start with an episode that focuses on the new normal under gerrard and on the eddie drama potentially. just for a small (or big?!?) bucktommy hint to be dropped in the middle or end to say that we are SO back!! 😍
Gosh, i am truly excited for whatever they do with the plot and arcs for the characters. It’s 911 so we know what we are in for. I worry about bucktommy for many reasons. I mean, we still have zero confirmation about Lou being back, and I don’t want to get my hopes up by going “when x happens” like certain unhinged fans of a certain fanon ship that shall not be named act. I want it so bad to see buck and tommy navigate through their relationship this season (I’d love to see them on a call together or maybe tommy gets hurt and we see the effect it has on buck), I really do, but unfortunately I will hold on expectations until there’s a undeniable confirmation from the 911 gods.
But we can manifest, besties. I’d love a big or small hint throughout the episode too!
#if yall don’t know why my expectations are so low I’ll explain here#I was in the#julie and the phantoms#fandom a few years back and I was very involved#the fans (me included) were really hyping for a second season as there were many positive signs that the show was going to be renewed#we all were like ‘when season 2 comes’ this and that#but as you can guess such thing didn’t happen#it took more than a year after the first season premiered for Netflix to say anything whether the show was renewed or cancelled#Netflix didn’t even have the balls to officially issue a statement#the creator of the show announced during a con and it was absolutely heartbreaking for all the fans cause we did A LOT#people created podcasts#got the show trending multiple times on here and Twitter#had watch parties to make it trend on Netflix#got the reaction YouTubers to become fans etc#and in the end none of that mattered#so now I take fan expectation with caution so I don’t get disappointed#911#lety rambles#bucktommy#ask

I have a lot of gripes with the Ahsoka series but probably the biggest is that the only relationship of Ahsoka’s that the show-runners seem to give a shit about is her relationship with Anakin. yes, of course, their relationship is incredibly important and it’s very special to me, but it’s not the only one Ahsoka has. don’t get me wrong, I love Hayden Christensen, I love Anakin, the Clone Wars flashbacks were my favorite part of the series.
but what about all of Ahsoka’s other relationships? what about Rex and Barriss and Plo Koon and Padmé and Obi-Wan? we got a very very brief Rex appearance, but not so much as a mention of any of the others. do they just not matter? it was an 8 episode series, so of course I didn’t expect them to address every single person Ahsoka has ever known, but no one aside from Anakin? really?
Rex is literally her only close friend still alive at this point and he only appeared in flashbacks. where is he? (is he safe? is he alright?) there’s a part of me that’s thankful they didn’t mention Barriss because I don’t trust any of these mfs not to do her dirty. but she still played an important role in Ahsoka’s life and we don’t even know what happened to her. Barriss’ role in TCW is literally why Ahsoka says she’s not a Jedi in Rebels, but apparently now she’s a Jedi again? huh???
it’s not just the lack of other relationships, it’s also how they dealt with Anakin and Ahsoka’s relationship. I know some people were expecting an apology, which I wasn’t because I interpreted Anakin’s appearance as a manifestation of Ahsoka’s subconscious, but the fact that she wasn’t even mad at him in the slightest rubbed me the wrong way. “oh but Jedi aren’t supposed to get mad!!!” 1. that’s an egregious oversimplification and just not true, 2. Ahsoka isn’t a Jedi anymore anyway, and 3. in Rebels, Ahsoka felt more guilt than anger, but that was before Anakin literally tried to kill her!!!! Ahsoka in TCW (and in Rebels, too, though she’s mellowed out a bit as she’s matured) just has so much fire, so where was that in the series? even if she does still feel guilt for Anakin’s fall, she should still be at least a little pissed at him!! I loved seeing them together again. I loved it so much. Hayden and Ariana were phenomenal. but grown-up Ahsoka should not be acting like everything’s all good between them because it’s not. there was so much good angsty potential that completely went to waste.
I could say that about the whole series. it had so much potential. but the lack of mention of any of Ahsoka’s other relationships, plus her interactions with Anakin… it’s all a whole lot of missed opportunities that shouldn’t have been missed.
#I’m not saying I hated it#but I have so many issues with it#and I was altogether extremely unsatisfied and disappointed#which didn’t surprise me#but whatever#ahsoka series#ahsoka series spoilers#ahsoka#ahsoka spoilers#ahsoka show#ahsoka show spoilers#ahsoka tano#anakin skywalker#anakin and ahsoka#ahsoka series critical#star wars meta#captain rex#star wars#star wars tcw#star wars rebels#rex and ahsoka#barriss offee#ahsoka and barriss#padme amidala#obi wan kenobi#plo koon#ahsoka finale#star wars criticism#my posts#sky speaks

i didn’t have “the 100 suddenly becomes popular again” on my 2024 bingo card but i do think it’s incredibly funny that lexa is still ~the face~ of the show even when the controversy isn’t mentioned
#to be fair the first 3 seasons are great#well…first 2.5 seasons#the grounders??? 10/10. the premise of an outside force changing the dynamic of these tribe like groups? 10/10#the execution of the show? ehhhhh#this show could have been so so so much better#and I’ll be forever disappointed that it wasn’t#like they didn’t NEED to give scientific explanations to certain things. it could just be….superstition?#it really ended up tying itself in knots the longer it went on#instead of having the occasional scientific explanation or modern device etc etc#they really tried to jam the science into the fiction and it rarely worked out particularly compellingly
