my dc movies hot take is that the green lanterns should get split into essentially home and away teams for the new universe, with John being the GL who appears in league stuff, and Jess and Guy being the lanterns appearing in any green lantern stand-alone movies
this is primarily because when John gets adapted to other media his defining character trait is always that he's the competant one, and that's very useful in a team story, but makes a shit protagonist for an origin story, and people are not familiar enough with the lanterns to skip the origin story movie
my pitch for the GL solo movie would be that it's about Jess getting called up after the deaths of hal and kyle in a 'nobody wants to talk about it' pre-movie disaster. guy is assigned to mentor her but is initially fucking awful at it because he's massively traumatised from hal and kyle's deaths.
(jess is absolutely tailor made for origin 'coming into her power' type storylines, and guy is both mentor shaped and the most capable of starting the movie as a grumpy kind of agressive mess and then actually working through that without either end of the character arc feeling ooc. i'm just fully haymitch abernathy-ing this man because i know he can take it)
over the course of the movie, jess will slowly uncover the truth that the disaster in question involved hal going paralax (this would not be widely known - most people on oa think hal died fighting paralax, and only guy knows that actually hal got possessed by paralax and him and kyle had to kill him before he blew up the planet or whatever), and also he's not actually dead he's coming back to try it again, but no one will believe her, except guy, so they both have to work through some stuff to build a solid working relationship and defeat paralax and save the world
i honestly don't really care if you save hal at the end of the movie or permakill him, i think you could give either pretty good emotional resonance, but personally I think you save him, and have him basically fuck off in self imposed exile to star in an animated series for a couple of seasons
(kyle probably just stays dead, tbh, and simon never appears, because there's a limited number of human GLs you can fit into the smaller scale of a movie universe, so someone's got to go. if you really can't resist including kyle, the injustice-verse gives us precedent for a recently evil hal being haunted by the ghost of a GL corps member, so he could just follow hal around in his animated series as a ghost forcing him to talk about his feelings, he'd probably be quite good at that)
anyway marvel continue to refuse to hire me despite me making multiple posts on tumblr.com about how good i'd be at writing marvel movies, so i guess this is my pitch to dc. james gunn i know you're reading this you can have this concept for free if you promise to make a we are robin movie

You know, it's genuinely sad to me that aging favourite character actors no longer have any fun murder-mystery tv shows to guest-star as murders on.

I choose to believe that the Ultramarines just outright stole Titus from the Deathwatch. Just reported "yep, all kill team members dead, what a bummer, definitely nothing to see here, here's all fivefour corpses we've recovered". Space Marine 3 opens with a pissed off Inquisitor, covered in blood, sweat and ichor, kicking down Titus' doors, going "BAA BAA BLACK SHIELD HAVE YOU ANY IDEA HOW MANY CHAPTERS I'VE HAD TO CHECK FOR YOU!!!"

Are you participating in Art Fight this year? :D
Nope. I never participate in anything because the second someone who isn't me tells me to draw "this specific thing", my brain decides that we're going to draw anything else except what's required

Steven Universe was good at having quiet moments in a way a lot of modern cartoons feel not as good at. Reflective little periods where nobody's saying anything and there isn't a joke hurtling down the expressway at your face every five seconds. All the more impressive given the 11-minute episodes.

ok so I watched Vaati’s new video on Rykard, really liked it overall but I wanted to go into more detail about what I liked and what I disagreed with. 
Gonna start with a list of the things I loved/found super interesting:
The way he laid out the evidence for Rykard’s inquisition having been on behalf of Leyndell was really really well laid out!!! 
I laughed at the “FAMILEEE” soundbyte 
His discussion about the origins of “hexes” was super cool 
I had never heard of the cut item description linking the Serpent Arrows to Shaded Castle! 
The idea that poison was involved in Rykard’s desecration of the Minor Erdtree… he didn’t mention this, but this idea could explain why there’s sickly greenish growths at its base?  
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Gelmir Minor Erdtree vs. Consecrated Snowfield Minor Erdtree)
Talked about the idea that the Great Serpent grew because of the sacrifices it was fed, then was killed, then came back as a normal-sized snake, that Rykard fed himself to and then grew large due to once again devouring sacrifices
Pointed out that the snakes inside the Abductor Virgins look like metal!!! I thought I was crazy for thinking this
1.0 Daedicar mentioned ‼️
His overall characterization of Rykard and his motivations is really good. he gets it
Now here’s some arguments he made that I disagree with:
Tumblr media
Early in the video, Vaati makes the argument that the blue-robed Officials originate from House Marais because the blue robes are a part of Maleigh Marais’s garb as head of the House, because Inquisitor Ghiza wears bandages, suggesting that he’s “sickly born” like the rest of the Marais family, and because the unnamed guy in the Volcano Manor portrait also wears a metal mask like Maleigh Marais. He argues that House Marais were assimilated into Erdtree society, and presumably that the Official’s blue robes were a precursor to the other robes associated with the nobility (the Ruler’s robe, the Upper Class attire, and the Consort’s robe). 
There are several reasons why I disagree with this theory:
Masks aren’t unique to the Marais family: the Ruler’s set comes with a Ruler’s mask, said to be “customary dress among lords,” and Tanith also wears a mask with her Consort’s robe. I speculated that masks are simply part of the noble fashion alongside the particular style of robe. 
I don’t think it makes a ton of sense for pompous noblemen to have adapted their style of dress from a robe associated with a family of executioners carrying out “the darkest duties of mankind”
The Volcano Manor portrait guy does not have bandages under his mask like Maleigh does.
Maleigh and Ghiza don't really look alike at all:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, a different explanation for Ghiza’s bandages could be that he’s a remnant of the 1.0 version of Daedicar, a torturer in Rykard’s inquisition: “he would test new methods of torture first upon himself."
Overall I think a better explanation for the Marais attire is that, since their ancestral duty was serving as executioners on behalf of the Erdtree's justice system, they simply incorporated the Official's attire (worn by magisterial officials carrying out "surveillance, executions, gruesome rituals") into the garb of the head of their house.
I absolutely think House Marais is connected to Volcano Manor though; I've suggested that as executioners they serve as a branch of the Erdtree justice system working in tandem with Rykard's inquisition.
2. Later in the video, Vaati makes the argument that the Abductor Virgins were made after Rykard snakeified himself. I personally think that they were made before the snakening, but I can see the evidence for the contrary and I definitely think it’s possible. However, Vaati later says that the Abductors were used to transport people to the Underground Inquisition Chamber to be interrogated, which contradicts his argument that they were made after Rykard’s snakening… if Rykard is now a serpent, no longer a Praetor, what use is there for interrogation? And who is doing the interrogating, if Tanith was the only human left loyal to Rykard, and his inquisitors have long abandoned him? If the Abductors were made after Rykard became the serpent, the victims are probably just being fed to him. 
3. Towards the end of the video, Vaati says that the serpent displayed in the Temple of Eiglay is the flayed skin of the Great Serpent, and that might explain the Godskin’s presence there. But it’s not the flayed skin of a snake, it’s a snake shed:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’s a pale, milky, almost translucent color, with some ragged edges and holes. Snakes shed their skin as they grow, and we know the Great Serpent “devours, grows, and lives eternally.” Rykard even has some shed skin stuck to his body and tail:
Tumblr media
4. Lastly, I’ve beat this horse to death but you can’t say with 100% certainty that Rykard was born with red hair because he has pale hair in the present day. I will die on this hill
