back on my bullshit (meeting men im in love with). Ben Schwartz is so kind and tall :-) I didn’t totally freeze like when I met the Jonas brothers but the selfies we took are blurry so 😔
(at least I have these bc I told sam to record the whole thing heheheh)
#also the show was great#I had to slap sam many times bc she was choking from laughter#ben schwartz#bro how did i forget my personal tag for ben#ben schwartz my beloved#me#also forgot me tag#editing tags after the fact to recount the entire experience#so we waited outside for about 10 minutes and I had no expectation of how long it usually takes for him to come out and take pictures#he comes out without a mask which is surprising to me and says ‘you guys wanna take some pictures?’#we all just kinda form a non sensical blob (there’s maybe like 10 ppl total) around him#Brandon Katie and Eugene hang back towards the stage door unsure if anyone wants to chat with them#I’m gushing over how tall and handsome Ben is to my sister who is ready to record our interaction once he gets to me#as I listen to him chatting with the other fans I can’t help but smile and say to my sibling ‘he’s so sweet’ every minute#he meets someone who has a cool sketchbook of the skits from the show that he wants to take a picture of#but they need to write their handle so he says he’ll talk with some others and get back to them#so he does and then later I see the girl ready to talk to him again off to the side#so I tell her ‘you can go ahead and finish talking to him”’ and she’s like ‘are you sure?’ and I’m like duh!#finally it’s my turn and he looks at me and says ‘hi I’m Ben’#yes Benjamin Joseph Schwartz I know#he sees me holding my phone and immediately sides steps to get into selfie mode as I ask him if he’ll sign my Jean Ralphio figure#he steps back to Be in front of me ‘yes of course!’#what insane media training he has#he says ‘I’ve seen this! this is the first one I’ve ever signed’#upon seeing the figure he says ‘it’s beautiful’ lol#he’s concerned that the sharpie I brought will not show up and I mention that it was probably a bad one to bring because it’s pastel#he signs and holds it up (as you can see in the first photo) to make sure it’s visible#he hands it back to me and I thank him and he says ‘do you want to take a picture?’#and I say ‘I would love to!’ and then I hold the Jean Ralphio figure and he looks to my sibling assuming she’s taking the picture#she’s like ‘no I’m just here for moral support!’

Just finished watching the 2022 tmnt movie for the first time (also the first one I’ve ever watched too)
Gotta say I really enjoyed it! Might be a lil obsessed now hehe 👀
Though I can’t help thinking that Leo and Sonic Wachowski are so alike in regards to their mannerisms 🤭 and then both discovering in their own movies what it means to be a hero
#it also doesn’t help that Ben schwartz voices both of them asjndjajdbd#sorry I have this problem when I see 2 characters from different franchises with like personalities#and then the au brainstorming starts and I can’t stop it ahhh#the franchise crossovers have to happen in my mind#tmnt#tmnt 2022#teenage mutant ninja turtles#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rise leo#sonic the hedgehog#sonic wachowski#sez says

Something that I think might be kind of funny is that I kind of think that you could possibly make a joke about Leo’s sleeplessness originally following him from another show
Randy: It’s like I keep living the same moment over and over and over and over and over and over, ahh!
Dream Howard: I know the feeling,
Randy: Ahh!
Dream Howard: Would you relax!?
Randy: No I can’t relax! I don’t know what’s real and what’s a dream! Is this a dream?
In the episode Ninjception of RC9GN Randy gets stuck in a dream loop of a dream-within-a-dream-within-a-dream while his dreams try to trick him into throwing one of the Chaos Pearls into the hole where the Sorcerer’s prison is
Randy: What the juice am I doing!?
After the episode first came out there were a few people in the fandom who wondered how Randy was going to be able to sleep properly after having his dreams manipulated which is kind of funny in kind of retrospect as Randy wouldn’t be the last Ben Schwartz character that the fandoms might think has trouble sleeping.
Leo: Hey buddy, trouble sleeping?
Donnie: What’s with the interrogation Leo!? Everything’s fine I said!
The are a few people in the Rise fandom that think Leo might have trouble sleeping as there are a few times where Leo can be seen up while his brothers have been asleep such as in the episode The Purple Jacket where Leo was up in the middle of the night or when Leo is shown to not really even try to sleep with the noise that Shelldon is making in the Lair in the episode Smart Lair.
The fact that two teen Ninja’s voiced by Ben Schwartz have been thought to have trouble sleeping is kind of funny since it is almost as if Randy’s possible sleeplessness followed him into another show.

"HOW GREAT IS THIS PARTY?!"
So here’s a thing: I’ve been in a bit of a rut in terms of what I’m watching. I’ve clearly been doing a ton of comfort binging - Supernatural, Good Omens, Murder She Wrote, etc. because I can’t get my brain to focus on anything, I’ve just been trying (and very much succeeding) at turning it off.
But the other day, my sister came to the rescue. She and I definitely have different opinions on what’s good (again, she got all the way through Good Omens, and was like “I never got a romantic vibe from them…” which caused the biggest eyeroll of my life, possibly). Sometimes, though, she comes through. Which led me to…
THE AFTERPARTY on Apple TV.
You’ve never heard of it, right? Because I definitely hadn’t. Which is crazy because I am 10000000% their core audience. Like, so hard. And it’s soooo good.
Wherein a group of friends attend an afterparty, and somebody ends up dead.
This is one show I don’t wanna ruin, because I had absolutely no idea what would happen going into it and it was SO delightful, so I won’t get too detailed but there is a ton to love about this show.
One of which is the cast.
Tiffany Haddish is the detective that’s attempting to solve the murder. And sometimes I feel like she's wayyyyy too much, but she is the perfect amount of something in this show. Honestly one of my favorite parts. She’s fucking hilarious. Her method is insane and perfect, it’s exactly the way I’d go about solving a murder, and it’s just enough of ridiculous.
And Ike Barinholtz! And the dude who plays Gabe on The Office. AND JACK WHITEHALL, aka freakin’ NEWT from Good Omens season 1. Who you will absolutely not recognize because he’s hot as hell. And Ken Jeong. And John Cho! And weirdo Dave Franco.
ALSO, Ben Schwartz, aka JEAN RALPHIO from Parks and Rec! Jean Ralphio is one of my absolute favorite insane characters, he’s so obnoxious and silly and his character Yasper in this show is similar, but also really charming. I was immediately in love with him because I’m a super weirdo, and his episode in the first season was definitely a highlight. I promise you’re gonna be singing “Yeah, Sure, Whatever” for a couple of days.
And that’s another thing - each of the episodes have their own motifs, which is clever and fun. A romcom episode, a musical episode. An episode that seems like a thriller movie. A heist caper. There’s even one that’s a fucking Wes Anderson love letter, which made me laugh out loud.
Each season is dedicated to a murder and both are self-contained, which I appreciate, with a few characters recurring. Maybe people more clever than me can predict who the murderer is, but I have to say, I love the surprise. And both of them were definitely a shock to me. I was basically live-tweeting at my sister, who’d also gotten my parents into it, while I watched and made her promise ‘no spooooilies’, so all she would say was “none of us could guess who did it.”
The point is, it’s just a dope show. Again, satisfying my blood lust, but in a hilarious way. It’s FUN. And I haven’t been excited to watch anything new in a while, and it helped in my effort to wake my brain up (if only minutely, it’s an effing process y’all). Apple TV apparently canceled it after the second season which is a huge miss on their part, but there are no cliffhangers and it’s just silly and wonderful. And it made me happy, which I appreciate.
So yeah, go watch it. You know you’re subscribed to Apple TV even if you forgot about it after Ted Lasso ended. And then, maybe watch Ted Lasso again…

the renfield movie review.
After getting rained on, having our first movie theater’s projector break, and having to drive to a different theater, I have finally watched Renfield (2023). ...and it was...fine? The movie’s overall tone is campy and fun, and it never takes itself seriously. It’s writing is horrible, god its so bad - the characters say exactly what they’re thinking at all times, and no emotional arc feels earned or fought for, there are no stakes (haha). But due to how silly the film is, this never makes it hard to watch. Nicholas Hoult truly shines in this movie and makes each scene with him engaging and fun. But god the writing. More thoughts bellow!
I think this movie’s biggest flex is its art direction, with over the top set pieces that create this nasty atmosphere that hangs over the whole film. Its like a grimy combination of The Lost Boys and The Phantom of the Opera. This is all complimented by the score. Without spoiling anything, there’s a moment where Dracula is monologuing and a sinister, orchestral rendition of Swan Lake plays, another reference to the 1931 movie it’s so heavily based off of. Although, it does get points of for the worst use of “na na na na” by MCR I’ve ever seen. It’s second best quality is certainly Nicholas Hoult, who took the shitty script he was given and really made something good with it. There’s a moment when Awkwafina’s character is on the phone, telling another character how fucked up Renfield is - who is sitting in the background cutely drinking some tea. Another detail I really appreciated about Hoult’s performance was the unexpected intensity with which he delivered some lines. On top of keeping Dwight Frye’s iconic laugh, it’s clear Hoult cares deeply for the source material and, if the script was better, I think he could have done a compelling book-accurate Renfield. NICHOLAS CAGE ITS NICK CAGE BABY HE WAS AWESOME ITS NICHOLAS CAGE! His portrayal of Dracula is fun and nasty as hell and might have fucked Ben Schwartz’s mom? The down side to having a movie that uses stylized hyper violence is that any threats of violence Dracula makes don’t really stick. Oh you’re gonna be violent? This is the violence movie! This isn’t an effective threat, you’re not scary! Contrasting this, the few moments where Dracula is simply talking to Renfield, acting like a real-world abuser and not the cartoon villain he is for most of the movie, are eerie and off-putting. Awkwafina’s there. Onto the bad. This film has no stakes, there are few things Renfield can’t slice apart or Awkwafina’s character can’t shoot, and due to the stated hyperviolence, Dracula never feels like a real threat to anyone except the main cast. The characters state what they feel, they experience something, and then state that they feel different in detail. I’ve mentioned that it’s extremely frustrating that 2023′s Renfield is not written with psychosis in mind, and how this is made worse by its use of pop-psychology terms and the labeling of Dracula as a narcissist - a real condition that doesn’t make the people who have it inherently bad or abusive. This is still true, in fact the frequent references to the 1931 film, while well done, simply reminded me of what Hoult’s performance could have been. The poor writing is this film’s largest downfall, it betrays the heart Hoult brings to his role and its art department. ....however, none of the pop-psychology ever seems to really...do anything effective? Yes, Renfield literally calls Dracula a narcissist and they never really discredit it, but its also shown that calling him all these things and using snappy language doesn’t actually do anything. What does help Renfield the most is finding community and bonding with other people who have experienced abuse. What helps him is talking to people about it and realizing he isn’t alone, which I think is a pretty decent take. I’m going to watch it again when it’s uploaded to my pirating site of choice, but overall it felt more like a criticism of pop-psychology, rather than a celebration of it. Oh and also that the most effective thing you can do to get out of an abusive relationship is to beat the shit out of your abuser with your best friend. 6.5/10.

Hmmm, 🤔 Oh I got it. How it would look like Gio met Ronin? What would be their first reaction to each?
(Also I was on Sonic the Hedgehog 3, yes the one with the Hedgehog voiced by Ben Schwartz, voice actor of Rise Leo. And it was EPIC🤩)
Ohhh I can’t wait to see the Sonic movie! I’m going with my friend soon. I’ve been avoiding spoilers like the plague—
Anyway, what would Gio and Ronin be like if they met? Oh boy…
Gio is already an anxious guy, so meeting Ronin will just double the anxiety he already has. At first he’ll be nice cause he has to get adjusted to seeing new faces but over time, I feel like he’ll become a bit like Raph in the terms of being an older brother. He’ll probably see Ronin as a brother of sorts and try to look out for him. Even if Ronin does scare him at times.
Ronin on the other hand will see Giovanni and is already thinking of ways to tease him and give him mini heart attacks by pretending to slip off a rooftop and whatnot. Ronin is just treating Gio as the same as he does with the other brothers and is just messing around with him. But Ronin would probably dial down the pranks and teasing when he starts knowing more about Gio and what he’s been through. Honestly Ronin would probably just get a lil protective over him, but tries to play it off.
So yeah, I think that’s what their interactions would be like in a summary.

Hi KayCode, since that season one of earthspark is over and i don't know if we are ever going to get a second season for the show. I want to hear your thoughts of what would a earthspark season 2 will be like and how will the story go?
Actually there will be a second season. It’s already been renewed 😊
But as far as what I think will happen/ what I want to happen
1. More bots will be introduced (maybe from cybertron or ones that were already on earth) namely: Hot Rod, Ironhide, Ratchet, Drift, Cheetor, Cliffjumper, and Jazz (also Blurr voiced by Ben Schwartz)
2. Hopefully the Energon pollution by GHOST will be discussed
3. Agent Schloder will create his own organization that will actually do what GHOST was intended for (not what his sister corrupted it for) (maybe call it NEST?)
4. He and Alex will have a Bumblebee fanboy off and become best friends
5. The bots will try to use the space bridge GHOST made to contact/get to Cybertron
6. MORE OF BUMBLEBEE’S BACKSTORY PLEASE!!
7. Alex’s family visits from the Philippines and dote on the Terrans and Robby and Mo (and Bee)
8. Jeffery Combs as Ratchet
9. We find out the Allspark isn’t destroyed and made it to Cybertron ( Hot Rod discovered it and become a leader in Optimus’ absence and restored Cybertron)
10. CAN WE PLEASE HAVE ONE FREAKING SHOW WHERE CLIFFJUMPER IS INVOLVED SOMETIMES AND ISNT KILLED OFF HORRIBLY?! Please?!?
11. If they can’t get the space bridge to work I think it would be cool to have Hot Rod and a bunch of other bots show up in the lost light ship
12. Quintessons
13. Optimus actually uses the matrix of leadership
14. Although I think it’s unlikely I would really enjoy a multiverse ark where they go through the different iterations of transformers
That’s all I can think of right now but I’ll come back and add more if I think of anything

Forgot to say it might actually be the snorting the centipede thing that won me over bc WHAT HAPPENS lol. I can’t imagine what the whole movies like and now I want to know lol
Okay since I just wrote that other long post and managed to bring it up AGAIN -
[SPOILERS FOR RENFIELD]
Ben Schwartz (a.k.a. Jean Ralphio from Parks and Recreation, bringing that exact energy) plays Teddy Lobo, the bratty son of a MILF Crime Boss & the secondary antagonist. (He might actually have more screentime than Dracula AND DESERVES EVERY MINUTE OF IT, but he's obviously not the big bad.)
He is a complete dumbass, a coward, a gun-wielding maniac, probably on cocaine at all times, and I can fix him. <3
This is a pretty big spoiler but not that hard to see coming, since he's basically set up as a foil/parallel to Renfield as soon as you see his relationship with his mom - he does end up aligning himself with Dracula and becoming a familiar by the third act, and he reveals this by making a terrible pun and then snorting a CGI centipede off his hand like it's a line of coke.
(See because Renfield eats bugs. That is important vampire lore that I'm glad wwdits did not adopt, but this movie took it in an "eating bugs gives him a temporary burst of superpowers" direction and apparently snorting them works too. CINEMA.)

Ok. I had a conversation with a friend and it sparked a debate, and I wanted to see what your opinion was-
When you are writing, imagining, creating the aged up versions of the rise turtles, do they have the same voices in your mind? I know in the movie FLeo’s voice actor was the same (and nothing on his VA I just- listen if Leo is gonna be a blorbo of mine and I’m gonna get on the Leo train, I can’t imagine Ben’s voice nope can’t do it) sorry. Tangent.
Anyway, back to the main question, do their voices change for you? And If so (disregard if they don’t change for you) who is a closer voice claim for them?
🦝, I argued strongly for Nathan Fillian for grown up Leo but I insert that just as a dig against myself not to sway your opinion. It’s what started the whole debate and whether that really was an improvement on Ben Schwartz.
Disregard
/j
😂😂😂😂
No, but seriously, I've had this conversation before and I don't get it?
They're men. They're not putting on voices and some boys hit their voice for the rest of their lives that young! It's not uncommon at all! I know you don't mean it like that because I adore you Racoonie, but this conversation of their 'grown up voices' always cracks me up because it's such a dunk on Ben and Josh!
For me the voices are the same. I hear Ben and Ben speaks through me when I write Leo's lines. It's like that for all the guys.
Also to take it in a slightly different direction (I'm not trying to sway you btw, in fact I WANT YOU to dig your heels in and keep your opinion that the voices change! Different opins are the spice of life!), Ben has an incredibly specific speaking manner. It's so intrinsically him that I don't think anyone else could possibly. I'm trying to imagine Nathan Fillion (stand up my fearless racoon, NF is great. His cameos always make my heart sing) talking in that way and it wouldn't be the same. He's a great actor, but I don't think he could do it because it's just so intrinsic. I recently read something and, ugh I'm forgetting everything today, but someone said that if you use your real voice when voice acting then you're going to be harder to replace as opposed to doing 'a voice.'
but hey, this is a whole spice rack!
Thanks for sending this in. I love thinking about stuff like this! /gen

Thoughts on the sonic movies?
SO FUCKING GOOD
I adore the Sonic Movies they do a REALLY good job and retelling a very well known story in a whole new way. I've never been the biggest on the new really weird need companies have to make everything live action, but I have to give the credit where it's due that the Sonic Movies LOOK BEAUTIFUL the animation is so good and like admittedly I never thought the OG Sonic design everyone hated actually looked that bad. He wasn't like overly cute or anything it was like alright ya that's IRL Sonic anyways time to go watch Satam for the millionth time. But I didn't like overly hate it the way other ppl seemed to. But the new one is AWESOME. The Sonic design we ended with looks AMAZING and also it was super cool for them to listen to the audience like that!
The movie original characters are also SO FUN. Obviously I know the inherent copaganda where it lay whether it was intentional or not but Tom RULES. Tom and Maddie are an ADORABLE couple and they are PARENTS to Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles. I love them so much.
Also! The Sega characters are done SO WELL. Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles were so so so perfect. Now I haven't seen the Knuckles series yet but I'm p sure it's out. So I'm only talking about the first two movies but MAN the characterization for these guys is fantastic. Also Eggman was so fun. Like they really made him such a fun villain for the movies.
Also the voice casting is AWESOME. Ben Schwartz is one of my top favorite VAs and I was SO excited when he was first announce for Sonic. And just as I suspected he BLEW IT OUT OF THE FUCKING PARK. Sonic is so perfect for his usual voice casting like Rise Leo, 2017 Dewey, and of course Randy Cunningham. Sonic, especially this version of Sonic, fits PERFECTLY. And of course Colleen O'Shaughnessey did amazing as always. Admittedly, I was kinda disappointed at first when she was announced as Tails. If only because everyone else was getting a new voice cast so then why not Tails? But I wasn't disappointed for long because, as usual, she fucking killed it. Now, admittedly, I had no fucking clue who Idris Elba is before Knuckles and still kinda don't (he is an actor! that's all I got ^^;) but MAN HE DID GREAT!!!! Also the reports that he started reading the fucking Knuckles comics to get in characters?! 1) Hot damn the dedication 2) I'm so sorry for his loss if he spent actual time reading the Ken Penders stuff
And of COURSE I can’t talk about actors without talking about Jim Carrey as fucking Eggman GOD what a choose. I’m convinced that when they were writing the script for Eggman that they wrote it a FOR Carrey I’m really not sure if anyone else coulda done all that. Maybe Tim Curry but also I think Tim Curry and Jack Black can do anything they want every and for always acting wise
I also LOVE the easter eggs from the movies I think thats one of my other favorite parts is how may Sonic details are in the movie and how much the ppl working on them clearly love the franchise so so much
I could probably say so much more but this is so long and I honestly haven't seen them in a hot second lol but MAN they are good fucking movies

I finally watched the pilot for RC9GN and while I still prefer the final product- I also can’t help but wonder if like, OG Randy (Ben Schwartz) met pilot! Randy, just have the two universes interact! Also I might see about referencing the pilot in ITNV but woof- the pilot has such different vibes
