So funny Viktor chooses to present himself to Jayce as a white-golden robot (considering it is shown he could possess one of his followers) despite his representative colors being purple and blue (during s2 arc 1 and arc 2 and as the Herald Machine). But for the very specific purpose of convincing Jayce to join him, he's represented in the colors associated with Mel. Literally CATWALKING into the room, which is an action associated with Mel too
#jayce arcane#jayvik#viktor arcane#arcane#arcane season 2#arcane spoilers#wow another Mel/Viktor parallel i could have never expected it im so surprised#im so upset with the dude of the show that say they are just a very powerful friendship#like bro have you seen your own show?#you have paralleled them with Vi-Jinx Vander-Silco Powder-Ekko Mel-Jayce#their relationship is beyond human comprehension they are literally everything and anything they want to#and the show doesn't belong to Arcane writers or creators#it belongs to the fandom so idgaf what you think they are because im interpreting a piece of media however i want#idk idk kill the author i don't care what the creators think I wasn't asking for their permission at the moment I saw the show#why don't you let a fandom love and interpret a piece of media just bc it doesn't fit with your interpretation?

Gaslighter? I hardly know her!
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#jin guangyao#qin su#The parallels to the mulderskully comic were genuine scripting coincidences that I kept in for the irony.#wwx and mulder both have a strong need to show their beloved (investigation) partner the cool thing they just found.#Much to their chagrin and concern.#For as much of a mess the plot gets in The Untamed...one of the things it does probably the best of all adaptions is setting up JGY.#specifically how we spend time getting to know him as a *Regular Guy* around our deuteragonists' age.#I love how he's present in the cloud recess arc! I was rooting for him as a character! The twist villain reveal felt so heartbreaking!#Here in the audio drama (for as much as it does well) we pretty much get 2 scenes tops with this guy before he's villain monologuing.#before this we know him as 1) the guy NMJ yelled at a lot 2) a suspect 3) leader guy Jin Ling was partially raised by.#The elements are there but but not with any particular depth to make him...interesting (in this version).#Sure we get to learn more after the fact but it just falls so flat in comparison B*/#ohhhh noooo the guy we are pretty sure killed a guy is gaslighting his wife and has a secret torture chamber. And he's a politician.#not much of a mystery to it all innit.#Feel free to disagree or bring up differing points btw; I love media analysis convos and this truly is just my opinion.

imagine a cdrama where ding yuxi gets to play both the hero and the villain
#*manifesting*#also. 夏弃疾 should ALWAYS be xiaoding's designated photographer#her shoots are absolute works of art#the entire musuem tbh#and you'd think these were taken as parallels on purpose when in fact they're weeks apart. for completely unrelated promos. iconic#ding yuxi#where winds meet#love game in eastern fantasy#lgief#cdrama#big day for enjoyers of black & white haired characters in chinese media#obviously i had to bring more to the table. guess the villain 👀

Something about I saw the tv glow and revolutionary girl utena both using coffins/graves as a literary device drives me crazy. Like your in the coffin. your in the grave. Everyone knows somehow. You could leave. but also you can’t. and your dying. Your friend has come a long way back to where it all started to get you. But you still can’t. And now your both changed. but you are still also the same as you always were. And you are still apologizing in the end.
#idk I’m going crazy thinking of parallels in the media I love#rgu#I saw the tv glow#revolutionary girl utena#queer media with heavy physical metaphor my beloved#it’s about the knowing and the touching a hot burner reaction of knowing and about the apologizing

'wow beetlebabes shippers have NO media literacy didn't they see how TRAUMATIZED Lydia was by her past with Beetlejuice????!? she's literally TERRIFIED OF HIm omg yall are SO DUMB'
I mean...she literally summoned him again to get his help and then brought up marriage within 10 secs of doing that and, at worst, just seemed mildly annoyed by the idea/him. See, I think if you actually have unbiased media literacy, you can recognize that Lydia's issues don't stem from Beetlejuice specifically, she isn't inherently frightened of him (and to suggest so is to completely misunderstand and infantilize her character imo, she never was frightened of him give me a fucking break lol) so much as she is by the reminder of her inherent connection to the afterlife, which ironically she's trying to fight against despite having a successful show about it. Like, again yall, it's fine if you don't like the pairing. It's fine if it grosses you out. What is wholly unnecessary is the suggestion that people who do like it are somehow media illiterate or just 'not as smart as you' or just not getting some elusive concept that only super intelligent moral people can for not also thinking it's gross. You aren't smarter, you just have a different preference for interpreting and enjoying the story. There was a time more people understood that concept.
And not for nothing, but despite your HIGH INTELLIGENCE some of yall still don't know how to tag your anti posts so they don't show up in the shipping tag- though I kind of suspect that's on purpose to try to start shit where there doesn't need to be any, but still, show me how so much smarter you are than me by censoring beetlebabes in a hater post just once challenge (level: impossible)
#beetlebabes#same post tried to say that there's a toxicity parallel between astrid and ghost boy and beetlejuice and lydia#despite the parallel being that beej reverses ALL of them#'he's just like ghost boy!!' no? he isn't? honestly did any of yall watch the movie at all???#if anything ghost boy is there to show that Beej definitely isn't the villain this time around#telling me i don't have media literacy when yall wildly misinterpret this entire franchise on a daily basis lmaooo#ig i just need to stop looking in the tag bc every single time there's some new bozo crossposting this nonsense#but i mean these are the same people saying a woman in her 50's is a child so yknow#reinventing fact to suit their narrative is just kinda par for the course lol#what's also weird is that they like...love beej as a character and have him as their pfps#but then make him out to be the worst most toxic evil character imaginable to justify their hatred of shipping him with lydia ???#make it make sense chat

bbc: Some sweet #Silvacre content for your FYP ❤️
#silvacre#suranne jones#rose leslie#vigil#the bbc making a silvacre fan edit was a pleasant surprise :)#i saw the streaming numbers for vigil 2 were very good (understatement)#which makes an s3 at least a possibility#if they can write a story suranne and rose would sign on for#i'm counting on what suranne said that the continuation of the love story is a big part of what brought her back#the series does a good job creating dramatic tension and conflict within a happy relationship that doesn't involve cheating or one dying#if they do a 3rd season i hope that continues#i mean the series started with amy in the worst possible place emotionally and psychologically so surely they wouldn't go there again#s2 with its wlw mlm solidarity/parallel storyline and giving us more insight into amy and how far she's come since s1#on top of all the other things i liked this season (which i enjoyed quite a bit in addition to the ship)#at heart it's very critical of the british government and military/war machine and some reviews seem to have missed that part#anyway i'm pleased as punch that a prestige bbc drama has two women in love at its center and a lead as compelling as amy#and that it's pulling in the numbers even without the submarine and claustrophobia (admittedly a cool premise)#keep making the fanvids bbc social media team we appreciate you#queue

what would you think of akechi n yusuke being friends lovers or even anything beyond the crumby bits of interaction they have if youre willing to think about it
they are so the theater kids
maybe they could've been good friends ...
the fact they both had give their everything to someone else, their "father", given nothing in return and left behind for power, but Yusuke was able to escape it and find his place with the Phantom Thieves and Akechi couldn't is just so yeah
but madarame did care for yusuke, akechi can't say the same for his father
maybe if it happened just a few years earlier, things would've turned out different...
#sorry lol#i love analysis of media i love#i could probably write an essay on the parallels of akechi and the rest of the phantom thieves#art#drawing#artists on tumblr#artwork#doodle#persona 5#p5#persona 5 royal#p5r#yusuke kitagawa#p5 yusuke#goro akechi#p5 akechi#persona 5 akechi#persona 5 yusuke#persona 5 fanart#persona 5 spoilers

I’m obsessed with shows that are procedural police dramas with a subplot that revolves around the will they-won’t they romance between a pretty, strait-laced blonde detective and a police consultant with strange connections and claim to have supernatural gifts that they use to solve crimes, who is quippy and irreverent. The pretty detective is virtuous to a fault with a coworker with shockingly blue eyes who hates the police consultant with a burning passion, mostly because of the frequent supernatural claims and aforementioned irreverent quips, but their shared affection and respect for the blonde detective is the only thing they have in common. Am I talking about Lucifer or Psych?
#lucifer tv#lucifer morningstar#deckerstar#chloe decker#dan espinoza#shawn spencer#juliet o'hara#carlton lassiter#psych tv#I’ve had far to much free time to think as of late#I’ve been rewatching psych with my sister this weekend#I love making connections and recognizing parallels in the media I consume

Everyone says they love a devastatingly painfully slow burn romance until I, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia—
#macdennis#iasip#it's always sunny in philadelphia#text#pay no attention to the tags behind the curtain hashtag normalcore hashtag silly#meme#anmmbposts#*girl who still has faith in them and trusts the structure in spite of it all*#*girl who has thoughts on the tragedy of stagnation in the sitcom format and parallels and contrasts to waiting for big mo in the themes of#change and what must happen first in order for such a lasting change to occur*#meant to say waiting for g*dot but anyway#ignore my tags look at my post#it wouldn't be the gay gay*ss love story for the ages without the excruciating wait because of who they are and what the show is#and what they're trying to break and subvert#as long as there is eventually follow through which i again do still have faith in/think they're legit building towards even if it feels#like a tease because of how many ways other media has burned us but they still have time to make the build up mean something

Assisting Acquaintance Acquired.

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wen ning#wei wuxian#Ignore how Wen Ning's hair looks here because I messed it up. Let's pretend he just sported a different hair style for a brief moment.#I am not exactly great at consistency but I am trying very hard to work on that (immediately messes up again).#Absolutely *love* how Wen Ning clearly remembers and admires WWX...who does *not* recognize him.#This is the best day for Wen Ning and it means *nothing* to WWX. A painful one-sided crush made worse.#It is bittersweet to realize that we care about someone more than they care about us. Sometime we pour love into a relationship-#-with someone who just can't reciprocate. It isn't always a conscious things either. Some people just aren't aware we care.#And painfully - so painfully - You can't make them aware. No act of kindness or gift or self sacrifice will make someone care about you.#You can martyr yourself for someone and they will continue on unchanged.#I think a lot about the parallels between WN and LWJ. Not foils - just reflections. A theme repeated.#People who give so much of themselves to someone who doesn't have the capacity to give any part of themself away.#I will die on the hill of 'Wen Ning would be the love triangle romance if that trope wasn't being avoided'.#And to be honest - thank the stars above that is the case. I do not know any good love triangles in media.#We are skipping some of the sad Jiang Cheng content because I really want to finish season 2 before May.#Sorry JC emo moment lovers...I'll deliver another time.
