The Freddie Mercury biopic is soooo bad though because it's not accurate 😭 their ( his and the rest of the band's)real life was so much more interesting. But I guess nuance has no place in Hollywood so instead of showing strained relations they outright broke the band in the movie ( also Freddie was the 3rd member to release the solo project irl lmao )
yeah people don't care as much about truth as they do spectacle and well. they got spectacle. i was such a huge fan when the movie first came out but that was because he was one of my first queer icons and i thought it was accurate. also i'm pretty sure that brian may and roger taylor had more control over the movie than most anyone else so of course they wanted to look good. these music biopics all follow the same skeleton in order to catch attention and get people to watch them. execs don't care about creativity or novelty or nuance and certainly don't give a shit about the people that these movies are about. it's about money to them. they would rather take a beloved icon and mess up their life story than come up with something new. i will never stop complaining about hollywood churning out sequels and prequels and remakes and live action retellings and of course, biopics. i understand the desire from a creator to tell the story of someone they admired, but that's not where these are coming from.

You’ve got to be taught to hate and fear,
You’ve got to be taught from year to year,
It’s got to be drummed in your dear little ear—
You’ve got to be carefully taught!
You’ve got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made,
And people whose skin is a different shade—
You’ve got to be carefully taught.
You’ve got to be taught before it’s too late,
Before you are six or seven or eight,
To hate all the people your relatives hate—
You’ve got to be carefully taught!
You’ve got to be carefully taught!
-You've got to be carefully taught from South Pacific by Rogers and Hammerstein

This photo was taken over 20 years ago by Todd Robertson during a KKK rally in northeast Georgia. One of the boys approached a black state trooper, who was holding his riot shield on the ground. Seeing his reflection, the boy reached for the shield, and Robertson snapped the photo.
I think the officer’s expression says it all. This child standing before him is being taught how to hate even though he doesn’t understand it. He probably doesn’t understand the difference between this and Halloween.

al things considered — when i post my masterpiece #1175
Tumblr media
first posted in facebook april 5, 2023
paul burlin -- "series of nine, #7" (1969)
"in the process of making a painting in an abstract way, the painter is in search of a reality. not one of realistic objects, but of the complete end result. the painting is experienced as a whole, and must evoke in the painter the absolute conviction that this is how it should be and no other way" ... paul burlin
"number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine, number nine" ... an EMI engineer's testing voice [edited and used by the beatles]
"we live in an age of treacherous, harrowing notions of mutability, death and decay … all of the old realities have dissolved … all rigidities of form disappear and enter into a new metamorphosis. this metamorphosis of form and reality is manifested in shape and color, which destroy visual reality and … shape themselves into a reality of their own" ... paul burlin
"engine, engine number nine coming down the railroad line i know she got on in baltimore a hundred and ten miles ain't much distance but it sure do make a difference i don't think she loves me anymore" ... roger miller
"in the 1950s, burlin began to lose his sight. in the next ten years he underwent eight cornea implants. his despair at losing his sight was often a theme in his work. he painted, even at the times when he was declared legally blind. in a respite from the darkness, he painted 'the series of nine' very near the end of his life. paul burlin died in 1969. the nine final paintings, which summarize and celebrate the life of the painter were shown at the NY MOMA in 1971, and at the pasadena museum in 1972" ... wikipedia

Foster Household: Chapter 9, Part 10
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Darwin: Are we going to game or what
Carson: Just let me send this selfie first
William grabs the seat by Onyx while Carson and Darwin get the spots in front of the screen.
Darwin: I can’t believe we have to have more classes with Mrs H
William: She is the senior teacher
Onyx: And the senior grump
Carson: I’m always worried she’ll give me detention again
Tumblr media Tumblr media
William: I thought you were getting help for the OCD
Onyx: Don’t need to have OCD to be worried about her, I’m worried about her. Darwin you’ve got to try curb your antics when she’s teaching us
Darwin: Now where would be the fun in that
Carson: How about not getting your friends sentenced with detention by association
Darwin: Fair point. Oh come on, who threw that banana?
Onyx bursts in to laughter and Darwin throws a cushion at them.
Tumblr media
William: Good game folks. See you all at school tomorrow
Onyx: Yeah I better see if my parents are ready to go
Carson: Any headway with Anya lately
Darwin: *sighs* I wish, she’s left me on read for two days now. How about your girl
Carson: *laughs* She’s not my girl
Darwin: She’s pretty, maybe she should be you know? It doesn’t matter that she’s younger if you like her, that's what I tell myself about Anya

Harvey: I think that dinner was a success
Kayleigh: So do I! Oh Reece called while you were doing the dishes and he and Samir are fine to come stay. Plus I let him know Carson and Charlie know about the werewolf business
Harvey: Did Carson faint with shock
Kayleigh: *laughs* No so I guess we were wrong about that
Harvey: We’ll have to keep an eye on him during the visit. Make sure he doesn’t get stressed about a werewolf being under the same roof
Kayleigh: Will you be stressed
Harvey: Not if he gives me grandbabies

After his normal morning routine Carson was delighted to see a text from Ariadne pop up on his phone.
Ariadne: Great news! They’ve opened the rink at school
Carson: How is that great news
Ariadne: Because I’ve been dying to go ice skating so bring your skates
Carson: They weigh a lot
Ariadne: Never let a little weight put you off! I like things with a little weight to them
Carson: Okay, okay, I concede
Tumblr media Tumblr media
At school the news of the rink opening had gotten around and several kids had brought their skates. Carson found Ariadne at the edge of the rink looking at them with awe.
Carson: Have you ever actually skated before?
Ariadne: Carson, you're here! When I was little my grandmother took me a few times but... it has been a while
Carson: Maybe it’ll be like riding a bike and you’ll remember
Ariadne: I hope so. I'd rather not fall on my butt in front of everyone
Carson: So... got a sparkly costume hiding under the coat
Ariadne: *giggling* Do you
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Carson: Drat. You told me to bring skates, not my leotard, it's back home
Ariadne: Always good to leave something for next time
Carson: *laughs* I mean you’d look much nicer in a sparkly outfit than I would
Ariadne: I think you look nice anyway
Carson: Oh, really?
Ariadne: We ah- we better get on the ice or we’ll be talking until class starts
Carson: Ladies first
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ariadne was first on the ice out of the pair with Carson close behind. He may be asthmatic but he didn’t mind something slow like ice skating. He did his best to keep up with Ariadne but he did slip over once or twice. Luckily he was behind her so felt pretty confident that she’d missed it. As the bell rang and he headed off the rink to class he missed her also wiping out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In art class Carson was glad to see Mrs T back. She was always much calmer and knew a bunch about art. As she gave a rather detailed analysis of perspective in art he felt his skill grow.

Down the hall in social studies it was a different story.
Artemisia: *whispers* Hey Roger, yo mamas so lazy she has a stay at home job and is still late to work
Roger: Shut up Emi, you know she’s a social worker. I’m not getting suspended again because you can’t control yourself
Artemisia: Only my friends get to call me Emi. Hey Roger, yo mamas so old she was a waitress at the Last Supper
Roger: Don’t think being a girl will stop me from punching you
Artemisia: Go ahead. My Pa will sue you until yo mama is so poor the ducks throw bread at her, oh wait, she already is

Who framed Hops Rabbit? (SMG4 New Gen)
So I watch a Roger Rabbit video and I remember the Halloween costumes from The Archivists (made by the greatest and amazing person that I know and which really love these guys *cof cof* @blu193)
So… Bam! Doodles
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, fuck my own canon.
Hops comes out with the idea of making her own parody about her favorite movie, Roger Rabbit. So she approaches to Stella with the script and of course they say yes
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Roles, a bit of info and the changes that Hops made!
- Hops is Roger; Viktor is Jessica and Hank is Eddie Valiant.
- Stella is Judge Doom; Toon Patrol (the weasels) Suzy & Co.; Emi is Betty Boop; Ivy is R.K. Maroon and I haven’t decided the other characters roles.
- Inocy could easily be Dolores and change their entire relationship with their character and Eddie.
- Hops change the relationship between Roger and Jessica since she and Vik are playing those roles, so they are brothers.
- So instead of trying to break a marriage, the plan is break a siblings strong bond, because Hops cared so much about his brother.
- Hank hasn’t watch the fucking movie yet, he just following his script and making sure he plays his role perfectly.
- So, imagine my boy reaction of seeing Viktor and discovering that both of their characters have… very close scenes (and yeah that wake up his feelings for Viktor which were hidden).

Today, on August 24th, 1975 – Queen Story!
Queen starts recording ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ at Rockfield studio’s in Galles.
🔸THE DAY QUEEN BEGAN RECORDING THEIR MASTERPIECE, ‘BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY’
- Ultimate Classic Rock, August 24, 2015
by Eduardo Rivadavia
If you were to write a history of the recording studio and, specifically, its usefulness as a laboratory for musicians' most ambitious creations, then an entire chapter might well be devoted to "Bohemian Rhapsody." The members of Queen began recording the song on Aug. 24, 1975, redefining the known limits of popular music in the process.
Suffice to say that, whatever Chuck Berry had in mind when he asked Beethoven to roll over, "Bohemian Rhapsody"'s jaw-dropping pastiche of rock and opera sure wasn't it. But then, Queen's flamboyant and unpredictable brand of art rock had been simultaneously stumping and amazing all those who'd heard it well before "Bohemian Rhapsody" came along. It continually morphed over the first three albums of the group's career, until 1974's Sheer Heart Attack started connecting all the dots.
During the first months of 1975, Queen toured the U.S. as headliners for the first time (alternately supported by Styx and Kansas), making their first trip to Japan (where they received a Beatlemania-type reception), and, in singer Freddie Mercury's case, receiving the prestigious Ivor Novello Award for his work on "Killer Queen."
All of these accomplishments no doubt boosted the band's confidence (and courage) as they started working on new material, both in unison and individually, for the album they would soon name A Night at the Opera. This was to be produced by their engineer Roy Thomas Baker, and it's safe to say neither band nor producer could have guessed what Mercury had up his sleeve as he started cobbling together both new ideas and spare song parts he'd been lugging around for years in the privacy of his Kensington apartment.
According to Baker, in an interview with Sound on Sound, his first inkling of what was in store only came when he visited Queen's singer at his home, and Mercury first played him "Bohemian Rhapsody"'s initial ballad section, concluding it by casually quipping, "And this is where the opera section comes in!" Mercury, Taylor and the other members of Queen -- guitarist Brian May, bassist John Deacon and drummer Roger Taylor -- then entered the studio following three weeks of rehearsal to help bring Freddie's madcap magnum opus to life.
Together, the foursome and their studio hands spent as much time arranging, re-arranging, adding, subtracting, and adding some more to "Bohemian Rhapsody"'s bulk as most bands of the time spent on entire albums. In the end, Mercury's central ballad wound up preceded by one of Queen's patented, multi-tracked a capella choirs and was followed by a tasteful solo from May, a minute-long opera section, then a heavy metal instrumental passage and finally a reprise of the core melody, fading gently back into wherever it came from.
All these years later, it's the song's operatic climax that remains its most stunning, almost superhuman, accomplishment, as it required them to clock as 10-to-12 hour days over a three-week period. They reportedly needed nearly 200 vocal overdubs in order to flesh out an entire choir. And then, when they were finally done, their label EMI was, to put it mildly, quite unimpressed.
Although, to be fair, the suits' reasons were typically business-oriented, as "Bohemian Rhapsody's" edged close to the six-minute mark, well beyond the limit favored by commercial radio. Instead, the label suggested they release Deacon's excellent "You're My Best Friend" as first single from A Night at the Opera, but Queen wouldn't hear of it, and it only took a moment for the immediate support of DJs across Britain to prove EMI wrong.
Released in the U.K. on Oct. 31, 1975, "Bohemian Rhapsody" would be No. 1 by Christmas and then hold the spot for nine weeks. Its commercial fortunes were undoubtedly helped by the pioneering music video shot by Queen to stand in for them on Top of the Pops while they were already back on tour by the time they were invited to appear. Meanwhile, their single was also on its way to No. 1 in Canada, New Zealand, the Netherlands and Belgium, earning Top 10 honors in multiple other countries and peaking at No. 9 in America, where it eventually became a million-seller.
"Bohemian Rhapsody" stands as one of the best-selling songs in rock history, prone to repeat visits to global charts anytime it is revived for a movie, commercial or other event, and frankly unique as nothing since has come close to matching its sheer heights of excess, bravura, and, oh yeah, inspiration.
