hey you're the only person who's ever been right about anything actually and I just needed these tags on my blog. tysm

i like saw 3D if i’m in the right headspace to disassociate it from the prior 6 movies but aside from lawrence’s rightfully bemoaned character assassination hoffman’s personality shift is also more than a little upsetting

#mark hoffman #see and i don't even 100% agree with all of this bc i do think he enjoys it. just a little. and i think that scares him and he doesn't know #how to cope. i think he feels remorse and euphoria and the conflict and comedown are devastating to process #to me also he is turning his head to watch peter die until the last second. i know that is not the common interpretation of that scene but #that's how it reads to me. he finally gives himself the satisfaction. and maybe that's supposed to be the catalyst for the hoffmanator in 3d #but i adore hoffman for the nuance of his character that COULD HAVE BEEN THERE and ALMOST WAS and then they fucked it up #what makes a guard dog turn on the people it's supposed to protect?? on members of its own pack??? if it decides such a thing is inescapable #how must it feel when the act is done??#he wanted rigg to succeed he wanted peter to succeed bc that would justify the brutality and the satisfaction he gets from it. it would #justify his own existence. if the incorruptible can be corrupted then there's nothing wrong with him.#but they can't. and there is. and that's why i love him #anyway thank you for putting some fucking nuance into the world for my boy. god knows he NEEDS it.#if u ever want to beat this horse a little more to death............hmu #he’s such a deeply lonely miserable man and violence is all he has left #yes. YES. yeah. okay bye
