thoughts about saw (2004)

8.5/10

i rly rly liked this movie! honestly before this i hadnt really seen any horror movies at all. not a big fan of being scared honestly,, but this one was so great! its great for me because even thouhg its a horror film its not really a “scary film”, like it wasnt meant to make me feel scared rather than focusing on the characters being scared. thats what i think anyway. it was super morbidly fascinating (my fav kind of fascinating!!). i dont rly like specifically live action bloody violence n stuff (im fine with the illustrated/animated kind) but this film i think had a great balance of it. most of the nastiest stuff like the sawing scene and the shotgun trap was offscreen which i appreciate. i thought the guts in the reverse beartrap scene looked pretty funny though. that scene though was so ffgsgshdhsgsgahe. u know what i mean. hurts my face just to think about it. wait was that girl the amanda character i’ve heard about or is that a different amanda. anyway. the characters were great too! not the biggest fan of larry he cheated on his wife boo thats bad but i still felt emotions over him. adam i dont even know why he was in there. but i felt so bad over him. during that scene at the end where he was pulling at larry and sobbing and crying and begging him “dont leave me here” i did cry. those police officers too i was sad when he went to the one that got his throat cut and held him for a moment. when he went away to catch the guy i was thinking “nooo hes bleeding out dont leave him what if he dies alone” he survived anyway but still that was sad for a moment. the ending too i loved the twist! i wasnt paying full attention so i did have to google an explanation but once i understood it i was like woah! thats so cool and clever and i love this movie!!!! yay!!!!! the Torment Mechanism!!!!!!! lets break all our bones!!!!!!!!!! nobody is gonna wanna read this ugly ass text wall of a post but eh. gotta get it out of my skull or else itll be rattling around in there all night

tldr middle aged men doomed yuri (or however old they are) and blood violence death hurray!!!

No need to publish but since you mentioned the disturbing amount of likes F stuff gets--I've now seen SO MANY video compilations of him in Louis' tags and the worst part is having been around for years I know that half the pics are either not F or not even Louis 😬 I see no difference between these "fans" and the ones that relate everything to H. It's depressing that his team isn't interested in fostering a fan base outside of the loonies.

It's really disturbing to see the obsession ngl. And it's not only fans. Just a few days ago, i saw a PEOPLE's article about Freddie's recent pic and i'm like wtf? I don't know if they ever wrote ONE article about a louis music release but just randomly writing a whole ass article about a child? It's so so weird. And i hate larries and babygaters for igniting this obsession amongst fans. If babygaters didn't exist, i don't think we would have this amount of posts or even accounts that work as Freddie's ua. In one hand we have the freaks who allow themselves not only to believe but to fucking post their proofs how Freddie isn't Louis' son daily (just imagine someone coming to you and saying you're not your parents' son/ daughter and i won't believe it until i see your birth certificate. Like seriously who tf they think they are). I still don't know what they think they're achieving with that, even if you think he isn't his child, holding that against him and always threatening to boycott his projects if you see the kid (which never works btw 💀) and hating on a kid daily is just disgusting and (bc i know that's what they care about) frankly useless. No one with a working braincell will ever believe a single word from crazy people like larries (i came back to Twitter the last couple of days and they're honestly truly schizophrenic there's no other explanation to the utter and complete dissociation in their thinking). They don't even think on how it reflects on louis, to have them as fans. I can't tell you how many irl friends became fans of louis after fitf but were so so put off by larries, they chose to remain casual fans only. On the other hand, we have some fans who work a little too hard to prove larries wrong. They hold on too strong to Louis' heterosexuality and fatherhood as a got you moment for larries. Totally ignoring how weird it it to keep posting a child's face. PS: A lot of the likes for Freddie's posts come from hrries who cling to that (and Louis' Larry denials ) as proof that larry isn't real since their fav didn't really give them a firm denial to shut larries up. I think louis is too talented to have a fandom like this. I always thought that his discography is too good to be included in this circus. Someone like him should've had a carrer trajectory similar to some of the top actors'. Drama free, promote his projects when the time comes, charms everyone with his wit and sense of humor then disappears until the next masterpiece drops. Unfortunately, he was sabotaged for too long and his current team is so useless, non creative and non ambitious it really is depressing. Even the big side projects if you will (afhf, aotv, lfl...) were all louis' ideas and made reality out of sheer will and determination from him. I will never forget in the afhf documentary where HE was the one telling Matt that the festival will happen and the logistics will be figured out and insisting so that the lazy man gets on with it and does his job. Like you're his MANAGER and not only you have zero useful ideas to promote him but also act like you're doing him a huge favor (against your will just so you could shut him up) when he asks you to do something that is in reality your job. His label is also useless (no radio, no playlisting). Hoping LT3 will have a better promo cycle (i'm a clown i know) and some miracle happens so we can get rid of larries, they're so harmful to his career and replace them with new healthy normal fans

hey do you have a specific tag for receipts or you fav receipts?

Thank you 🩷

All my receipts are tagged as LARRY RECEIPTS or by year (ie: 2015 LARRY RECEIPTS and so on). I also have a tag for LARRY MOMENTS (and Larry moments by year. Same format as the receipts).

[not-goldy]

The solos in your ask pretending they know what jikookers think and OF COURSE victimising their fav in the process. Never forget to victimise, otherwise you're not a true solo.

Meanwhile, actual jikookers : love the both of them equally, love that they love each other, will keep loving them even if it turns out they were just the greatest of friends who enjoyed giving each other blueballs, love Jimin's songs, love Jungkook's half naked welives, love Jimin’s cutest welives making legos, love Jungkook's songs, love love love.

I don't know about every other jikooker but you've summed up me and the jikookers who hang around my blog succinctly.

Which reminds me, someone brought up Larry and Louis complaining about how he can't break free from the rumors-

I don't expect Jikook- either of Jikook to ever come out and disrespect their bond minimize invalidate it like many fake ships do post the band phase era. Especially the ones who deliberately feed into those shipping narratives for clout.

Jikook's relationship is not founded on two people playing naughty just for shock factor. And if you've been in various shipping spaces for as long as I have you tend to pick up on these things very fast.

Performative bisexuality is real

Queer baiting is real

But some people just wanna be brazen for no reason at all.

And when you have that lens you quickly can tell which moments of Jikook is just that- two naughty boys who have no qualms feeling frisky with eachother or playing up that friskiness for the cameras.

We know all that. We see all that- but we also see beyond that, we see the thing that explains the subtext, and explains choices they make to the point we can even predict those choices before they make them and 9 out of 10 we'd be right.

Yet these people are consistently wrong about jikook. Tuktukkers are consistently wrong bout their ship because they can't tell what's real from what is a performance.

I'm gonna make one such prediction and yall mark my words:

Neither Jimin nor Jungkook will EVER deny their bond EVER.

FOR THE SIMPLE REASON ITS NOT FAKE

They will ALWAYS CHERISH their bond and speak fondly of what they share between them, honor it always in spite of whatever labels fans want to place on it.

They both mean something to eachother

THAT IS NOT FOR THE BENEFIT OF FANS

And I think what keeps them going is this baseline.

I can see them reminding themselves of this over and over that they hold on to that baseline whatever anyone says.

I think this is my second long term prediction I've made about two bts ships. Vmin and jikook.

In whatever years yall find me and remind me I told yall so.

Love is energy.

It cannot be created or destroyed but it can change form.

If a person can come out and say all these things that other ships come out to say about their ships when their ships no longer serve them, without acknowledging appreciating their actual bond then the bond was not there or strong to begin with

[louisisalarrie]

someone asked me this so i wanted to ask you, what was your fav moment from fitfwt?

any time louis is in a tank top hahaha. but ALSO working on his leg down here and making sure the shows all went off the way he wanted them to, and of course, seeing him backstage. also, my view of him from where I watched…. I got an excellent side angle hahahaha

And the “sing walls if larry is real” one 100%

I'm sorry you got harassed again just from a simple post with a (imo pretty valid) opinion. If that person is the same that answered your post by reblogging and repplying on their blog with unnecessary hate (apparently queer but a solo louie) then it's the one I just blocked. I love to currate my experience in this fandom. Anyway I just wanted to say, I used to love your posts in this fandom! I lost track of your blog and thought you'd disappeard. I'm glad to see you're still on Tumblr and enjoying other fandoms. I'm well aware of how toxic this fandom can get (between the hets, the solos often queer themselves but hating on queer larries and more, to many groups to count tbh, louis' attitude on social media ect), especially when you dare to voice an opinion, which I'm mostly don't lol. I'm staying for the art, the fics, the great memes and ofc the music and the people. You're "y'all" made me think 'I Hope she still got good times and friends out if it. I made some great friends in the larries bunch myself. Anyway sorry for the rant, I lost track of what was my point here. Just was happy to see you pop on my dash through a mutual and wanted to say so I guess?? So once again thank you for the fun times I had reading your posts back in the days; have a great time out here, enjoying your favs fandoms, you do you! Sending love xx

so i was trying to avoid posting any anons regarding prev fandom discourse but i opened this one and read it through and it was just so amazing i had to respond, not just in tags 🥹🥹

of course, it's lovely to hear that you liked my posts on fandom back in the day etc but what really got me was when you wanted to make sure i still got good times and friends out of it, that nearly made me cry

because YEAH I FUCKING DID 🥺😩🥺🥹🥲

blue ( @wastelandbabyblue ) is literally one of the coolest people i've ever known while also being one of the kindest and funniest. id literally kill to meet her one day in person. i still keep up with brenda and several others i met in her og discord, some of which are the only remaining 1d fandom blogs i still follow here - they are so kind and funny and i still talk to them occasionally in a fandom discord i stayed in because i didn't want to lose touch with them.

and 🥹🥹🥹

i met 8 of who i would consider my closest friends in the whole world through fandom. through the most insane wild and unruly fandom discord drama, i literally located my found family: wedo, nino, iza, katja, olia, hanis, chloe, and su

we talk everyday still even though we live all over the world and we talk about nearly everything except fandom nowadays and they've helped me survive living day to day through some of the worst moments of my life. i don't know what i'd do if i didn't have them in my life

last night, i had a bit of a shame spiral thinking about all the time energy money i devoted to the 1d fandom. i felt embarrassed for being so loud about something that ended in so much disappointment. it wasn't fun and i know it was probably triggered by being involved in some discussions i hadn't been in so long

so when i opened this ask, anon, it reminded me so much that whatever was lost from that time, so much more was gained. the embarrassment of remembering dancing around like a fool with a rainbow flag for someone who couldn't even say something as simple as "look at all those colors" pales in comparison to the lifelong friendship i gained with these 8 beautiful women all across the globe

nothing will ever compare to the people i met and the way they feel closer to family than any of my blood ever felt

i'm glad that you found so much goodness as well and thank you for reminding me that it was all worth it for what i got

[sizzlingpatrolfox]

some posts

the titles are not to be taken seriously, i just wrote down the same titles i had saved them as in my bookmarks.

i thought about whether i should include my jikook/jk posts not because i want to negate i ever felt that way, but because while re-reading some of those posts i had an almost out of body experience and felt like i was reading things someone else said, considering how different my opinion of jungkook and jikook is right now. but well, i decided to keep them because in the end all that stuff did happen and i did feel that way at some point, even if now it's changed.

chemistry =/= relationship

skinship 1

hey what made you believe in jikook

jimin hates fanservice

jimin no collab until after military

jimin solo career - i know this fandom so well sjkdj

proof is a money grab album and everything is sad also: jungkook you're literally everything that went wrong with the group after 2020 congratulations on destroying bts

catastrophic jikook interactions same as everyone else's

everything jikook is about the overanalyzing and i hate it

some bts members feed the fandom's narratives

jk physically affectionate hoseok jin + not completely honest filling in the blanks

jk saying taehyung is the most handsome he's ever seen

jimin is infinite to me + weverse interview

tattoos

jimin is irresistible (only for the pics)

Okay so I had the BEST night at the museum dream ever oh my gah I loved it so much AND I EVEN REMEMBER THE MAJORITY OF IT TOO!

Buckle up, this dream is LONG

So it started off with me an’ Larry kinda walking around the museum once it had come to life, and I made a beeline to the miniatures. And then my dream gave me a montage of me and the miniatures hanging out and talking and stuff. At the moment I was watching them play some kind of weird version of soccer, and every once in a while they’d lose the ball so I’d grab it for them.

But the whole friendship wasn’t working for me? Because of size difference (obv) and also my hands were super shaky (because they are irl) and I was kinda just sadly watching them continue their game.

And then one of the exhibits (one of the human sized ones) came up to me and was like ‘U know, if u ask the tablet nicely it’ll make u small too?’ And I was like ‘how’d you know I was thinking that???’ And she was like ‘hun I could see it in ur eyes.’

Anyways so I went to go find the tablet, and I did. Except it looked nothing like the tablet did in the movies. But I knew that it still had lots of power, somehow. And then I… prayed over it? Yeah, and I asked it for just one night of being small in the diorama with the others. Once I finished there was a gentle voice in the back of my head and it said ‘It is done’

And then BOOM I’m in the diorama! So I go looking for Jed (because why tf not lmao he’s my fav) and I snuck up behind him and surprised him.

Once he got over his schock he was super excited I was their size now, and then we just kinda sat and talked about random shit. Then the sun came up and I was suddenly not in the diorama anymore but like, beside it instead.

Then time skip to the middle of the day, and I’m looking around for the tablet again (because now I know it works). But it’s not there? Turned out Larry (who somehow was slowly morphing into my irl dad) had hidden it because he didn’t want me to become little every night because it was really dangerous.

(Also, the whole layout of the museum is fucking nuts. It was somehow the museum but it was also a mansion I lived in.)

So he’d hidden the tablet somewhere in the house in one of the rooms. Of course, I had to find it, I wanted to actually be able to spend time with my friends, y’know? So I was creeping around the place looking for where it could be and kept coming up with dead end after dead end.

Then I watched as Larry moved a door in a specific way and revealed a secret room. So I thought to myself ‘oh he’s DEFINITELY keeping it in there.’ And I went down after him. (At this time his resemblance is just fully my dad. I did not question it.)

And I found myself in an ultra long corridor. And it looked like one of those half-finished basements with a couple couches and boxes of random stuff everywhere. Mind you, this corridor was so long I couldn’t even see the end of it. But it was well lit and kinda cozy, so it wasn’t like. Spooky or whatever.

Then he heard me behind him and caught me. But instead of making me leave, he got super cocky and said ‘yeah sure why not. Go ahead and look for it.’ Like he was ultra sure he’d hidden it really well.

So I go walk down the corridor and keep my eyes peeled for anything that resembled the not-tablet. And all I really found was more boxes of junk stacked all over each other, a Christmas tree at one point, and a really fancy bunk bed that happened to have my two youngest siblings sleeping in them. At the end of the corridor was just one lonely bathroom that was just a toilet and a sink. Also I kept like, calling out for the tablet. Like it was going to answer back or something.

So I’m defeated, yeah? And Larry walks away triumphant.

And then this is where it gets really really weird

I’m just kinda sitting there, super duper sad. And then I hear a voice, the same voice I heard in my head when I had made the prayer the other night over the tablet.

So I think it’s the tablet calling out back for me, yeah? But it’s not the tablet. It’s this weird spoon-bell thing that’s kinda hopping around. (I didn’t think it was weird in the dream. But now that I’m awake yeah that was kinda weird.) And it directs me to this line of tin cans with arrows indented in them pointing into the same direction. I follow them and I find a the tablet behind a bunch of the junk I’d walked past originally, covered in this really soft fabric to try and hide it.

The I realize that Larry never actually left and he was RIGHT BEHIND ME. So I ran as fast as I could to the end of the corridor where the bathroom was. In the middle, Larry grabbed me and tackled me down. So then I had the idea to pray again over the tablet and ask for strength. I got it, and pushed him off of me. Then I got to the bathroom and used that strength to hold the door closed as I started to pray again over the tablet to make me miniature and in the diorama every night.

But before I could start Larry just went on softly about how he was just, like, trying to protect me, and that it was dangerous to be that small every night.

So that convinced me to instead pray for just one more night of being miniature, so I could break the news to Jedidiah.

It works, and I’m back in the diorama. And I see Jed and I just full on tackle hug him, and he catches me and spins me around. Then I break down in tears and he tries to console me, and I have to tell him that this is the second yet last night I’ll be able to actually for real hang out with the miniatures like this.

So then there’s this like. BIG time skip to later in the night. I’m still miniature and I’m dreading the sun coming up. Then I see human-sized Jed with the tablet and he’s in a standoff with Larry just in front of the diorama. Turns out he’d somehow done all that in an attempt to help me be able to… visit them more often in a more convenient way. Because even though I told him I was fine with the original arrangement (even though being miniature was really fun) he could see that it wasn’t really what I wanted. So that’s what he told Larry.

AND THEN THE DREAM FREAKING ENDED 😭

Anyways that’s it. U may continue with your regularly scheduled scrumbling :3

[track-five]

Your fav canon HL h/c moment?? 😁😁

oh my friend…strap the fuck in because i’m about to answer this very simple question in a way you didn’t ask for but will be subjected to because i have nobody else to talk about it with oops

short answer: it’s harry running off stage to get louis a cough drop, because i see it as a domestic and sweet gesture that shows how loved and known louis is by harry

long answer: it’s harry running off stage to get louis a cough drop, because i believe it’s an anti-proof interaction that demonstrates the love these real people had for each other at the time, whether it was romantic or platonic. now welcome to my goddamn ted talk

so objectively, larry aside, my understanding is:

louis goes directly to harry after staring him down to get his attention doesn’t work. he doesn’t even look at anyone else, he zeroes in on harry. harry doesn’t hesitate to dart off stage and get something for louis, and it seems he might’ve even been prepared for it. louis looks nervous both times harry leaves, which could be for any number of reasons, and the way he did a double-take over his shoulder three times after harry ran off the second time makes me wonder what was said (and i’ve wondered enough to write a fic about it, so if anyone can lip read and tell me what they said, let me know)

so here’s my pitch (not that i think you specifically need convincing, considering you’re in the silly little inbox of Me, a known larry enthusiast):

larry or not, we can see in that moment it was harry that louis specifically sought out to either

1. ask him for something (which was done without question) because he knew he could rely on harry for help, or

2. say something to harry that elicited a gesture of care which louis wasn’t necessarily seeking but seemed to need

that moment wasn’t crafted for us, so there’s no reason to not take it for what it was. it was a moment of vulnerability and kindness. they were ‘caught’ showing trust in and care for each other in the most public setting, and i feel like it says something about their unique and genuine connection. which could be platonic or romantic!

some people may say i’m cherry-picking, but i’d have the same thoughts about loving gestures between any of the boys. platonic human connections are allowed to be tender and intimate and loving! people can love and be loved without a romantic connection! whether harry and louis were in love or not, you can’t see that and tell me they didn’t have real love for each other at the very least. however, given the context…idk seems very domestic and husband-coded to me, but what do i know lol i’m just some gay little freak on the internet

so all that’s to say yeah it’s when harry gave louis a cough drop on stage. i thought that was nice of him

[kingdomoftyto]

Σ(°□° ）oh my GOSH, HELLO!! You did SUCH a fantastic job--I've been reading a bunch of AA fic the last couple days and can confidently say you've become my headcanon Larry voice haha. The casting in this project is so good, I hope you're all really proud of what you've created!! <3

Didn't want to clutter up my tags on the last post but YEAH Turnabout: An Ace Attorney Musical, a fan-made musical adaptation of the first game, is insanely freaking good and every fan of the series should go listen to it immediately and drown in the immaculate AA1 feelings

I first heard about it a couple weeks ago and proceeded to listen to it in fits and starts in my car on my next few trips running errands. I enjoyed it but didn't really give it the attention it deserved. Then yesterday I sat down and actually watched the whole Act 1 video in one sitting, with proper audio quality, and.... gosh, fan projects--especially massive, collaborative ones--are never perfect, but this one is as close as I imagine it's possible to get. I've listened to the entire thing about four times now and it seriously gets better every time.

The subtle integration of the canon melodies, the generous use of leitmotifs and reprises, the way the writers clearly GET the characters and what really makes them tick..... (The folks responsible for this go by "Maya Fey Protection Squad" so you know they understand what really matters in this series!)

My heart just gets so soft and squishy every time Phoenix and Maya interact (damn "I'll Be There" for reeling me in with that silly first half only to smother me in feelings in the second), and I lose my mind at pretty much every line Miles sings and every meaningful glance he and Phoenix exchange. His growth in Act 2 is going to be so GOOD, UGH.

Act 2 can't come soon enough. I must know how these threads--both plot and musical--are going to be carried over to the DL-6 trial. The current estimate afaik is that it'll be released some time in February, so join me in gushing over Act 1 in the meantime!!!
