RIP Timothy West (20.10.1934 - 12.11.2024)
"We met when we were cast with small parts in that really boring play, so had both brought the crossword to stop us going mad. We saw each other across the rehearsal room doing it, so decided to sit together. Then we couldn’t record because of the strike one day so we went to the cinema, Pru and I, to see The Grass is Greener with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr. The show was cancelled, but a bit later Pru sent me a card saying ‘they’re reviving that terrible play, are you in it?’ I wasn’t but we started writing to each other then."
"Humour is vital, and respect for what people do and what people think. Kindness is important, and we’ve always had the same humour, laughed at the same things, been interested in the same things, got cross about the same things. And been in the same business. We have often been away from each other work-wise and therefore we’re always very glad to see each other again."

Tim's ep of The Edwardians‚ as rascally MP (and conman) Horatio#Bottomley is a really lovely thing. and as im sure i must have said at some other time‚ more people need to see the incredible BBH#perhaps the first time i saw the (until then‚ to my eyes) cuddly Tim West as a truly repugnant‚ horrific character (he's brilliant)

would love to see an mcu actor playing a canonically-jewish-character-turned-goy-for-the-screen respond to casting criticism with maturity and understanding some day. maybe an apology, but we won’t get ahead of ourselves.
#g talks#anti mcu#anti disney#antisemitism#anti joe locke#wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt bc he’s young and relatively inexperienced#but his pompous response of ‘well I’m in a marvel show and you’re not hahaha’ is fucking absurdly immature#i get that mcu actors deal with a lot of unwarranted shit#but again this response is just not it for me#it feels arrogant and dismissive#mine#/mobile#/okay to reblog

The Superboy TV show is probably one of the least talked about Superman properties ever. Literally nobody ever mentions it. I mean, it's not good thats probably why but it never gets brought up
#i watched an episode or 2 and its very boring#also the actors changed bevause apaarently the first one was super arrogant and reckless#and the second one is very involved in fan conventions and stuff#actually the second actor audition L&C and almost got the part but lost because the producers wanted someone new#80s superboy lore dump ig

I'm just saying David Jenkins should have let some of the queers kiss. Izzy and Lucius, Izzy and Jim, Izzy and Wee John, Wee John and Lucius, Jim and Lucius... just get some genuine homo in there, some people who have the imagination to create some genuine queer joy, desire, and longing.
#I'm not saying that no straight actor has the imagination to do it! David Jenkins just didn't hire them#Stanley Tucci and Colin firth would have both made wonderfully gay Stedes#Oh you know he would have been good? Raul Esparaza. He's hot#he's bi#he's got that combination of arrogant and pathetic down to a science

Egotober Day 30: Witch
Celine had been called a witch many times. She’d found her abilities early when her and Damien had been young. And she honestly liked the dark gothic aesthetic and style. She’d also been called an ice queen but witch was much more common. It was mostly in childish insults or whispers around her, there were very few that dared to shout it in her face for fear of what she’d do to them. But one of those few it turned out was her husband.
It had been another argument, for what reason she couldn’t remember clearly now as she stalked through the manor with anger bubbled in her veins. But the last part of it rang in her head like the echo of a gunshot. ‘Don’t you try to play innocent with me you conniving witch!’ Her hands shook as she threw her suitcase open. She felt the burn in her veins, the sparks of energy at her fingertips. She wanted to show him what the word really meant. What someone could do with powers like hers. But Celine still loved the proud man she’d fallen for, she didn’t want to hurt him that way at least. But she needed to leave, at least long enough to cool them both off….
Dark blinked once as the memory faded to the back of his mind from where it had been brought out. As he looked at the so called ‘hero’ in front of him. Still in that stupid red suit with that arrogant smirk on his face at what had left his lips. ‘Celine was nothing but a conniving witch!’ Dark’s face twisted in a mocking sneer as he loosened his stance and moved forward in a predatory prowl. The righteous anger of a protective brother filled his words as a hand clenched into a fist.
“A witch was she? Little more than someone who performed parlor tricks or was someone to blame when things went wrong? Well..”
Dark had a vicious pleasure summer in his veins that was shared three fold as he felt the bastard’s nose crack under his fist. As he watched him fall to the ground. He smirked as he felt the brother step back. As his body shifted and changed to match the pulse of fury that only a scorned and betrayed woman was capable of making.
She looked more elegant, the suit fell against her curves with a sensual sort of ferocity. Dark rolled her shoulders and cracked her neck as she set her heel on his throat. Magic, so much stronger, darker than it had been before leapt into her hands with barely a thought. She smirked at the furious, shocked and…..yes afraid look on Actor’s face. He hadn’t expected to deal with her and the strength of venom in her voice, if it had been possible, would have killed him from necrosis ten times over.
“Maybe I should show you how much of a witch I really am.”
#Seer Celine#Occult Speaker#Actor!Mark#Jerk who caused all this#Darkiplier#Man with No Shadow#Markiplier Ego#Markiplier Fandom#Fanfic#South Writes#Egotober 2023#Angst#But also KICK HIS ASS CELINE!#I honestly think Celine and Actor were good for each other once upon a time#But Actor got too proud and arrogant and Celine is stubborn and cold#they butted heads way too often and the paranoia from the Entity in the house in WKM did not help#And what happened happened#That said I still wholeheartedly think Celine deserves to kick his ass and Actor needs said ass kicking more than he needs air#Damien is cheering her on from the sidelines with popcorn don’t worry#He gets catharsis through his twin#Celine gets to kick his ass and break his neck under her heel#Everyone wins! XD

For real next time they assign me a Managerial Tail for Misbehaving At Work (leaning in lieu of cleaning or whatever) I am going to look them directly in the eyes and deadpan "I am 30 or 40 years old"
#My least employable traits are I will not work through illness and I will not tolerate managerial helicopter parenting#I am a human adult endowed with dignity and autonomy#Even if I work minimum wage. Go away#Doctors bosses whatever I will not tolerate being treated as less than a human being and a rational actor#This means I get fired a lot but I don't get degraded#My mom says it is arrogance but I think it is the bare minimum to retain your humanity

the cold hard truth about me and young nino is that chances are i would be acting like that if i was a man. luckily i am nowhere near like him as an adult
#jo in the tardis*#this actor annoys me his portrayal of nino's arrogance feels familiar#'if i was a man' okay taylor swift song#taylor swift would hate my guts lmaooo

i absolutely hate the disrespect people level at dub actors. i always see bullshit like "they didn't even give a shit" or "it was clearly low effort compared to the japanese performances 🤓" and genuinely just... fuck off lol. it's absolutely okay and fine to dislike a performance! it's fine!! you can totally prefer the japanese!!! i do for a lot of characters!! but you don't have to level personal accusations at the english voice actors, saying they're not trying when you have no idea how much passion and effort goes into a performance
so many VAs are passionate and dedicated people who love their craft and try their hardest with their characters, only for some fuckin people on the internet to act like theyre hacks who don't give a shit. as if they were there during the casting and recording process knowing the inner workings of the dub lmfao. imagine how disheartening it must be putting your all into something only for someone to mischaracterise you like that
just say you don't like something instead of getting personal and mean about it!! say you didn't like the direction of a line, or felt it didn't match the tone of a scene, or felt like you preferred the emotions of the jp version! just don't be blatantly rude and disrespectful about the actors!!
but it's the internet. am screaming into the void here
#rant#this was inspired by some yakuza dub discourse ive seen but tbh it applies broadly to dubs#i really enjoy and respect a lot of english dubs and the actors behind them who really do care and try#seeing dismissive and arrogant people's comments abt them pisses me off man#who am i kidding the dub discourse will never end lmao#i appreciate dubs. but even if i don't like a dub i'll never personally insult an actor#and will never be so arrogant as to assume i know how much effort and time went into it or the circumstances that shaped a performance#dont even get me started on how cruel and pathetic ppl were about yong yea

every time i go to the theatre to watch/listen to (?) sherlock holmes, i realise how watered down the version of bbc is in comparison to the original, like i don't hate the series but there is a distinct difference yk
#johnny's silly rambles#that may sound a little arrogant if i'm honest but i don't care really#the local actors here can perform sherlock better than benedict cucumber ever could (sorry had to do that)#also they include much more obvious homoerotic scenes which is surprising considering this is a very. catholic town.#they are having very much fun with it though and i love them for it

If you've auditioned with a company twice for two very different shows and been rejected twice, is it safe to assume that they're just not interested in your voice and further attempts would only waste time and embarrass yourself?
#don't know when or what they'll be doing next#but would feel very awkward auditioning a third time and still not being cast#especially when a friend who is (imo) a worse actor than me got in both times with a big role the second#sorry that sounds arrogant I guess#just frustrating

Winwin trying to pull the yixing exit from kpop group idol straight into chinese celeb is not gonna work as well because nct isnt nearly as popular as exo he will not get the immediate recognition that yixing got. Most groups are not like exo. Some groups are uniq and u end up selling ur soul to the gay bait cdrama gods to secure a place in chinese entertainment and if that avenue hadnt been banned by china i wouldve said winwin see u gay baiting in a different profession in a year. But also going from idol to bad actor is infinitely easier than kpop idol to cpop idol if he gets lucky with ONE drama then hes in forever. So who knows
#but that one drama might come tomorrow or in a year or two or three or never and he will just get torn apart for the ones that dont hit#i didnt even realize how much easier being an cdrama actor is than a cpop idol until esther yu left yuxin in the dust after clj#the endgame of almost all cpop idols is horrible cdrama acting. except for the very very top of the cpop idol pyramid who can choose not to#which is another reason i dont respect yixing because he is at the top of that pyramid but he choose to also act bc hes stupid and arrogant#no one really comes for him when hes doing idol stuff singing dancing etc but he steps into acting and gets attacked immediately (deserved)#sidney talks shit#winwin

Imagine being a writer who finally gets published
You have a book signing in a local modest bookstore
then a teenager approaches you for a signed copy and asks if they can adopt it into a play for his acting school work
And you realize that this is the most famous kid actor within the decade and that they’re the first actor from your country to ever win an Oscar lol
Because they chose ur work from intuition (a
reincarnation power$l)
#tbf he basically is cheating in his thousandth life but he’s not overly arrogant or greedy#Alice liveblogs#you’d either feel super lucky or desperate enough to empty ur bank account to cast him#then again I think it was just the play and him not doing a full adaption#and he just dished#finished coming nack from a movie in the west about a violin player#and he can play it well enough to hold#real concerts as well#be fun if the we too aftowtowon gets that far#that’s one way to get work#imagine being an Amateir creator and#the 14 year old of Meryl Streep asks permission to use ur work for a performance#(was she acting at that age? i don’t know many actors but that name popped up as someone known lol)#and I don’t know current teen actors at least none that’d be good enough to win an award )#altho if they were more petty#be interesting to choose something to flex over lol
