main take aways from Halloween (1978) rewatch:

michael myers is canonically 21??? this bitch should be at the club

*sees tiddies* ***MURDEROUS RAMPAGE NOISES***

that's it that's the movie

outside of the fact that everyone who has sex is murdered by the narrative, this is a surprisingly chill portrayal of female sexuality? these teen girls are horny and actively enjoying Getting It On with their boytoys. no pushy boyfriends sneaking in through their bedroom windows--these ladies are taking the initiative to sneak out and GET SOME. one of them gets laid and then immediately orders her boyfriend to get her a beer. (yes she gets Slashered soon afterward, but so does the boyfriend so honestly, gender equality.) yes the Final Girl is the only one not having sex, but she's not bullied for that, nor are her friends slut shamed except possibly by being murdered by the narrative

actually the only character who is shown being morally condemned on-screen is michael myers. specifically FOR his violent overreaction to other people's sex lives. (people he is spying on). metaphorically, the villain is American Puritanism sticking its judgy nose into other people's business.

aka Michael Myers Is A Republican

but actually the real villain is the doctor. guy's a judgemental, shaming, pathologizing asshole. and he's been in charge of michael's care since he was SIX YEARS OLD? kid never had a chance. i'd go on a killing spree too

also the parents. where are the parents? it's halloween night and all the teenage girls are home babysitting their younger siblings? come to think of it, michael's first victim was his own older sister, whom he killed while she was babysitting him. teen girls are really shouldering a labour burden here. maybe parentification is the true villain

side note: mike commits his first murder wearing a clown costume...which is never referenced again? his 'iconic' costume is a generic mask and wig and jumpsuit, when we coulda had a Killer Clown Michael Myers??? travesty

i like how the Final Girl and her friend casually smoke weed in her car. yeah she's an honor student and her friend is the sheriff's daughter. yeah they smoke weed. so what it's 1978

(to reiterate, mike is 21 and should be at the club. im not saying he shouldn't be rampaging, im saying it's sad that he broke out, tasted freedom for the first time in his life, and immediately snuck back into his childhood home to go rampaging. let's have a remake where he goes to a nightclub and has a few beers. maybe some slutty dancing. then rampage)

oh no he's hot

#HALLOWEEN #halloween the movie #michael myers #do you think he's a mike? mikey? to his friends? if slashers had friends?#i'll be honest i was expecting this movie to be way more of a bitch to its female characters #i mean yeah they died but so did some dudes #there's just a lack of cattiness compared to the way most later movies portrayed teenage girls idk #yeah the Final Girl is a Virgin and a Bookworm. but there's no bullying or any strong sense that's she's morally superior to everyone else #mostly she AND the other girls feel a bit sorry for her lack of a social life. one even tries to set her up with a date to the school dance #solidarity! trying to get your nerd friend laid!#overall it's just teenagers being teenagers and then a slasher comes in and ruins everything with his Lack Of Chill #like yeah dude sometimes teenagers have sex. get over it #also something to be said about how while the girl who survives is the one who isn't sexually active and dresses conservatively...#ultimately those things aren't ENOUGH to prevent her from being targeted #you could say that the other girls 'provoked' the villain (the same way women irl are so often accused of provoking their attackers)#but ultimately that doesn't keep the Final Girl safe. it just delays the inevitable.#because violent men never need excuses. no matter how eager society is to provide them.#ultimately she is at the mercy of the same violent whims because it was never her behavior that invited the violence.#gendered violence doesn't need an invitation.#also she doesn't save herself the doctor saves her #it's not her actions or choices that put her in danger OR save her from it--once again it is the whim of a man #no this wasn't intended to be a feminist movie it's just fun how you could argue it that way

IT WAS ERIC AFTER ALL!!!! I'm so glad we got to meet him (before Vil snaps him away with those Infinity Gauntlets) (can't wait to see what happens when we get the matching Infinity Tiara to go with them, there will be no survivors)

(sorry to be so slow/rough lately, just got a lot of stuff on the ol' brain at the moment! alas, if only I could spend all my time drawing incredibly stupid characters I mean I do but)

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #tapis rouge #i know these are not my best but by god i needed to draw ~daddo venue~#he is a treat! can't wait for him to yell at us for screwing up a shoot or whatever the last-minute disaster will be #i am SO HAPPY it turned out to be about movies after all! ...i mean sort of anyway #i'll take what i can get (and i do enjoy twst trying to be all cute about snow whAHEM i mean beautiful queen) (i see you there twst)#(also to be fair it actually wasn't poisoned in historial-revisionism-twstland so i think we can trust this apple. a+ acting eric)#anyway we are still. very solidly in the 'stand around and talk about the wallpaper for three hours' part of the event.#but HEY we got to meet eric! i was not really expecting it to be him so i am VERY pleased #also god help me i did think the shopping montage as portrayed by a rhythmic where they literally SKIP down the street was hilarious #there's a lot of Choices that were made in this event and that was a good one

St. Hilarion's ghost story

#payneland #edwin x charles #dead boy detectives #dbda #pre canon angst brought to you by the weirdo who's always drawing post canon fluff #something about oral tradition and old timey slang #i took quite a lot of decisions with this one so buckle up #first of all the female ghost keeps edwin's eyes color because there's still some truth to the legend #the background is the same shade of green to reference hell #just like it is when he's having his flashback #alive charles is dressed all in black because he's not a happy boy #i also made it so that he grips his clothes when his mate punches him even as it's intended to be friendly #because well #these people will end up killing him so it's less friendly when you remember THAT #charles obviously doesn't mean anything by the mary ann comment #he doesn't know the slang meaning and just blurted out what he remembered from the legend #he will find out reach some conclussions and go punch a wall about it probably #about edwin tho his escape is still very recent and he didn't expect this #but even so early on he knows charles means no harm and allows himself to be comforted #it wasn't intentional but hey edwin shruggin off charles' touch is a good parallel to that one scene after charles “kills” the night nurse

HYRULE

YOU

STOP BEING AS FAST AS EVERYONE AROUND YOU HYRULE

IT DOESNT END WELL

HYRULE

...Ya know of all the people to suddenly be forced into teamwork, I wasn't expecting it to manifest into 'Hyrule repeatedly having and carrying out the exact same thoughts as the person next to him in a destructive way'

Art by Jojo @linkeduniverse I love it I love it I love it

:)

#I hope I made sense I know that was a wierd sentence #linkeduniverse #linked universe #Lu hyrule #BUDDY #I mean I knew he didn't get along with Sky but I wasn't expecting him and legend to clash in terms of working together #also random guess but he and legend will split for the dungeon to go find their different boomerangs #<<edit: well that was wrong

i think my philosophy on adaptations is different from most people's tbh. if i have to see one more take that's like "if you wanted the same story just read the book" i stg.... if they wanted to write a different story why did they choose to adapt a beloved book? like yeah i did want the same story lol my bad for assuming a "faithful adaptation" would be the same story??

#and NO this doesn't mean i was expecting zero changes i'm not stupid #but i definitely wasn't expecting as many and as severe changes #given how this show was advertised to fans #pjo #percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson show #pjo tv show #pjo show #pjo series #pjo show crit #pjo adaptation

the barista lady in the treviso café fucking giggles every time you buy the fancy coffee lucanis likes from her btw. can't believe the game is calling out rook and me like this

#I've tried it several times to check it wasn't a fluke and nope it does happen consistently I'm pretty sure it's intentional #bioware Know. they knowwww. they know exactly what I'm like and god bless them for it #dragon age #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age spoilers #lucanis dellamorte #rook x lucanis #rookanis #café pietra barista gazing kindly at rye like 'I know what you are.' (a simp) while the tips of his ears go very very warm #clearly some sort of underlying drift compatability here since rook in one night can somehow manage to hit on all two (2)#of the elements of lucanis' instinctive understanding of courtship behaviour (knives and coffee/food) hfksjdfhas #in lucanis' defense when a guy buys you knives AND good coffee (despite not even drinking the stuff much himself) on a first date...#when your love language is that unhinged and they straight up compose a shakespeare level sonnet in it on the spot #seemingly without even realizing it. I mean what else can you be expected to do but fall so cataclysmically in love #that you'd kill god over it any day of the week easy. wild stuff #even wilder since in my playthrough he isn't entirely sure rye meant anything by it/as more than a friendly gesture #for like. MONTHS.#lucanis is a regular at that place and they all for sure know exactly who he is so can you IMAGINE the gossip that must start #after that conversation starts to take on a flirty edge. hotboi crown prince of the crows returns from the dead and is making eyes #at ~*mysterious stranger*~ who just showed up in town. some I hear netherfield park is let at last stuff going on for these guys #as they watch all of this go down

anyway related to my "gullible" post i do think bonnie didn't really have a lot of friends / any good friends. i'm taking a watsonian approach to "some of the things bonnie does seem more like age 5-8 than 10-12", and a doylist approach to "everyone in this party grew up kinda lonely and feels disconnected from their peer group"

#thoughts #thoughts about bonnie #bambouche is so small no one woulda gotten away with being Mean to bonnie. and people were generally Nice anyway #they still had friends and got to do fun things with them #they just.. didn't get invited to play Every game #and the person they considered their best friend didn't consider bonnie to be even top three #yknow #lots of factors...#bonnie wasn't there as a baby/toddler - they arrived right at the age where kids start to remember and care who's already their friend #and bonnie and nille were 'the newcomers' and will remain as such for 10 or 20 years #and for the first couple years bonnie was behind in most social-emotional and academic skills due to their early years in an abusive house #and while they mostly caught up #'forming close bonds with peers' is just a rly hard thing to catch up on #bc if you're too far behind you just don't get the chance to practice and thus you fall even further behind #and then specifically some of the words bonnie needs help with i would expect them to already know / have no issue pronouncing #possible explanations could be that vaugardian is a second language or they've got some language or auditory processing issues #and either way - having trouble communicating can rly isolate you esp as a kid #also everyone in this party is autistic. to me #isat #bonnie #isat bonnie

I don't think Jayce and Viktor literally died. They were kind of pulled into another dimension/astral plane/whatever you call it. We see older Viktor, and while it could be another Viktor, I think it would be more meaningful if it was our Viktor, finally free from the arcane, going through the universe with Jayce, fixing timelines together. Kind of like a cosmic mission.

#jayvik #arcane spoilers #arcane season 2 #arcane #the yaoi isn't as doomed as it seems #i mean arcane s2 wasn't perfect #and jayvik left me feeling colder than expected #they played a huge role in the end and they barely had screentime this season????#i will always love jayvik tho #otp otp i adore them #jayvik screentime isn't the only issue I have with season 2 tho #the way piltover vs zaun was treated.........#“omg if we work together we can solve our differences” what differences tho there was a clear power imbalance and police brutality I'm????#plus jink's “death” was kinda forced and weak?? so last minute??? like I know she isn't actually dead but yeah #and sevika????? where's my wife?????? she did NOTHING on act 3???? did she even talk????#also mel has never been my favourite bc they mainly used her as a plot device and a romantic interest to a male character which suckss #but in s1 she started to show vulnerability in the end??? even early s2??? like girl where is all of that??#that's WAY more interesting than the “tough serious warrior” character she's become #anyway everything happened too quickly #too much time spent on noxus shit #ooooh i wonder what the next show is going to be about hmmmm #and so many things weren't explained #everything surrounding viktor and the arcane and what happened to jayce and viktor was kinda foggy #also wtf is sky doing there???? it should have been little viktor or something idk #plus where are caitlyn's dictator arc and vi's boxer arc?? they barely lasted???#and maddie should have been more prominent if she was working with ambessa? we barely saw her (or ambessa) manipulate caitlyn #also ambessa's plan wasn't 100% clear either so I'm guessing that plot line (and singed's???) will appear again sometime

#yugioh vrains #ygo vrains #vrains #'now i understand that definition. i loved you.' OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#i need to go back and listen again but i'm like 95% sure that the word that gets translated as 'people' can also mean 'someone'#ai means to love someone. i loved you.#vrains spoilers I GUESS? SORRY I KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE FOLLOWING ME WHO HAVENT WATCHED VRAINS #BUT IT'S ALSO BEEN OUT FOR 4 YEARS. IDK.#i've been steadily processing this for the past three days straight. i admittedly wasn't crazy about vrains' last season but good lord #i didn't expect the finale to grab me and shake me violently about like that. you guys really live like this?

Aside from the "running around the peak with a boner bc you are escaping your shizun/crush who is chasing after you for every disciple to see" that Binghe did in his disciple days, what other cringy or embarrasing things you headcanon that he did or would think to do in his disciple era?

#svsss #人渣反派自救系统 #luo binghe #I mean there must be a limit probably or else he would be risking a lot to get caught #and he says he wasn't that bold at that age #but he was a teenager who was suffering from the very real disease of being 15(more or less) w a fat crush on his teacher #so I dont expect him to be like very normal about it #rambling to distract myself bc is hell here in my country rn
