dr who is (apparently) redesigning this turtle from the classic series to be just a green human elf lady instead and twitter is eating it up because "no one would take the show seriously otherwise" and "the audience isn't able to empathize with something that doesn't look human". another fascinating data point in the psychology of doctor who fans.
#i know people will read this and think i'm saying the show should look stupid#i'm actually saying 'why are doctor who fans so rejecting of the idea that you can make an alien with a beak look good in a dramatic contex#and why do so many of them think the audience are incapable of feeling empathy towards a lizard#when the show so often asks you to read emotion into a puppet as simple and inhuman as a dalek#also a lot of people comparing making it human to shape of water#come on#he was not passing the harkness test and he still won the oscar

The fact that Charles fans think Lando is mid but Oscar is great even though Lando is ahead of Charles and Oscar is behind him is crazy
there is no son better for you than a son who isn't better than you
#sorry to bring up that terrible joke again#i think the cognitive dissonance of 'lando is so mid because he's losing to max in the best car'#vs 'oscar is great even though he's not even beating charles (who we will pretend is driving a tractor that has somehow won multiple races)#is actually really funny#it kind of proves that they're not actually that bothered by the car#they just don't like that lando is in the championship fight not charles#delta help desk

i think (wish on a thousand stars) the 2025 title battle is gonna be between Oscar and George.
#but I think George is a real option if merc keep momentum#I think people underestimate how good George is? he won f3 and f2 back to back#only Oscar and Charles have done that as well#indulge my rookie Antonelli champion dreams as well#imagine Kimi and George brocedes it and kimi's fucking 18. wow that would fuck him up so much#f1#formula 1#oscar piastri#george russell

I think some of you don't understand that Oscar is not being criticized for racing, people are concerned that Oscar kind of fucked up the possibility of a 1-2 quite early in the race 😭 Lando said that if he braked one meter later they both couldve been out in that corner. It's easy to say "it's not Oscar's fault that Lando can't race his teammate", when he has more to lose with a dnf, and Oscar is taking advantage of the team's decision to let them fight without orders, he's always going to risk more because he knows that Lando is forced to hold back.
I'm not going to blame Oscar for wanting to win at any cost or for not caring about 1-2 today, in the end this is the team's responsibility, they are the ones who don't want to back Lando, it's normal that Oscar doesn't care.
#What bothers me the most about this isn't even that Oscar is selfish or whatever.#It's just that he hasn't even won. I think I'd be less disappointed if it had been a 1-3#but after leading almost the entire race#bringing that bitter vibe around him and his teammate#just to end up in the same place he started#the drama#the discourse#all for nothing#overall a very disappointing day#oscar piastri#lando norris#mclaren#f1#formula 1

oh mclaren... WHEN I FUCKING CATCH YOU MCLAREN
#f1#formula 1#i love both lando and oscar and i am HAPPY that oscar got his first win but WHAT IN THE EVERLOVING NAME OF JESUS CHRIST ON A BICYCLE#WAS THAT FUCKING STRATEGY IN THE SECOND HALD#and then and THEN essentially BEGGING WITH THE DRIVER CURRENTLY IN THE LEAD TO GIVE UP THE POSITION#“this isn't how you win a championship” THIS ISN'T HOW YOU TREAT YOUR DRIVERS#lando norris#oscar piastri#like i'm very happy he won but i think it's going to be overshadowed by this goofiness

russell crowe promo interview for gladiator (2000)
#russell crowe#gladiator#russellcroweedit#croweedit#gilles gifs#i listened to this multiple times but he really says “me sword”#he also does a little sword gesture but there is french hardcoded subtitles so i cropped it as much as i could#i think it is so amusing how humble he is about his role in gladiator#because (1 it won him an oscar and (2 a LOT of the traits maximus has are mannerisms from him#and some essential things to the story are russells idea#it only had 21 pages of script so there was A Lot on the table and up for a change when they were shooting#it literally would have been a completely different movie without russell#not necessarily bad but just??? maybe it would have flopped you never know

SIX SENTENCE SUNDAY
I was going to work on this more during my shift but then I remembered it is Oscars day and I’m chronically addicted to awards shows 😔 anyways here’s the intro to my grandekofi bar au <3
~~~~~~
Two drinks. Just two.
That was how many drinks it took for Dame to admit she was in love with Tia. Well, admit it to herself at least.
She stared at her reflection in the grimy bathroom mirror of the bar Hannah had dragged them all out to for her birthday. Even with the dingy lighting, Dame could see the flush of her cheeks, left over from when Tia had wrapped her arms around her waist as they waited at the bar. It wasn’t long after that that she had excused herself.
#six sentence sunday#sss#grandekofi#I do have more than this written I realize that intro makes it seem like I don’t#but I do!!!#I just think the intro is compelling enough to post :)#anyways Oscar’s are going okay so far da’vine won but I had it muted during her speech bc I’m at work#so I’ll watch that when I get home#and they showed a dog :)#I don’t like jimmy Kimmel so he’s annoying me but whatever#anyways!!!!#my writing#La grande dame#tia kofi#dametia#drag race#rpdr#RuPaul’s drag race#uk vs the world#ukvtw2#drag race uk vs the world

I JUST REWATCHED PIWON MOVIE AND I HAVE THINGS TO SAY
#okay first of all THEY DEBUTED WITH A MOVIE !!!! that's so crazy every time i think about it im like woooow#jongseob and intak acting debut when ???? they were sooo good omg unlike kyo i didn't remember how bad he was 😭😭 but his#character is hilarious so it's fine <3 ALSO i completely forgot yoo jaesuk and jung haein are in it like guysss what are u doing here hihi#anyways absolutely oscar worthy real cinema if u ask me#now after taking notes and watching the new trailer a few times i think that p1epi is actually chaeyoons weird talking plushie#but since it's away from her it can't talk so that's why jongseob create that thingy to translate from#dog language to human language and i think it's there because maybe the members got like lost in time and#it wants to remind them that they have to save the entire world from the apocalypse#also p1epi came down from the sky just like the alcot meteor like ummm yes we love symbolism 🙂↕️#i saw someone saying the dog it's actually intak because the dog came through the window and intak wakes up next to one but it doesn't make#any sense to me so we're throwing that idea in the trash can#talking about intak hes now has blue eyes so that means he got infected but honestly when did that happen while he was fighting#some zombie? idk i think i have to watch all their mvs again for clues but what that means he's one of the bad guy now??#also i may be insane but what if the shop represents the world and seeing it in flames means the members couldn't save it and their lore#ends with the saddest ending ever like yeah sorry the apocalypse won#OR WHAT IF !!!!! they aren't the ones who can save the world they actually are the reason why it's ending like the masked ghost#actually created them to spread the virus and that would also explain them at the end of the trailer looking#at the burning shop without doing anything like they ARE alcot the meteor thats gonna destroy the world#but that would be too dark i know they're the heroes so it will have a happy ending#i have many theories but im starting to scare myself so ill shut up#pt

I just made my own post instead of dumping this on a reblog bc it's not a big deal but....when did Martin Scorcese become a stand-in for "guy who makes gangster movies" or "film-bro pretentious?"
Most of Scorcese's films are not about gangsters. Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Cape Fear, New York New York, The King of Comedy, The Age of Innocence, and in fact pretty much every major Scorcese film that most people have seen that isn't Goodfellas or The Departed...is not a film about gangsters. (Mean Streets is great but it's a deeper cut). Gangs of New York, I think you could put in that category, but it's also a historical period piece and not the Goncharov'd/Godfather'd aesthetic that you would associate with a "gangster movie." Oh, I forgot The Irishman, but come on, that one only came out a few years ago and I know none of y'all watched it or remembered it unless you were a huge film nerd. I didn't even get into it.
When did Scorcese, of all people, become the stand-in for "filmmaker people assume is pretentious?" Was it when he said everything correctly wrong with Marvel films? Or on this site maybe Goncharov effect?
EDIT: I also totally forgot about The Departed, which I guess from one point of view is a "gangster film" (or really, a crime film). I distinguish between films like Goodfellas or The Godfather which are what most people think of as "gangster films" in that they focus on the perspective of people in organized crime vs "cops vs robber" films like Heat which usually include the perspective of law enforcement and The Departed is the later, but that's splitting hairs. It's a crime film, sure, and also a thriller.
#Scorcese has always been extremely populist in his sensibilities#it took him decades to win an Oscar for directing because of it#contrast to Christopher Nolan who is also someone who is very populist and it took him what 15 years to win Best Director compared to#Scorcese having to wait from 1973 to 2010?#I don't think most of y'all have seen a Scorcese film if you only think he does gangster films and think he is more *pretentious* than he i#except I have come to hate the word *pretentious* because online it has come to mean *likes things that are better written than a Marvel*#Taxi Driver is both very simple to understand and very complicated in how it is made in the best possible way#edit: actually I did the math and if we are counting from the start of the Batman trilogy (when Nolan went from indie to mainstream) then#18 years not 15 but close enough#granted the Oscars were also more likely to go for blockbusters pre-Weinstein (Rocky beat Network Star Wars AND Taxi Driver for Best Pictur#Network should have won even though Taxi Driver is my favorite out of those nomineees personally)#but even in THAT era Scorcese was not enough which is why I find it funny that people who haven't sat through a Scorcese films think he is#The Pretentious Film Guy probably because of his MILD and btw CORRECT comment about Marvel films taking over cinema that was more about the#impact on the industry than the quality of the films#but then again we would not have gotten the bonkers glory that was Goncharov if not for it#like I know the person who made the poster likes Scorcese but if it weren't the fact I'm pretty sure most people who were Gonch blogging#didn't know what one of his films would actually look like then Goncharov would not have been so fun and batshit crazy and silly so no#complaints. but yeah I feel like even the most obnoxious film bros I know don't see Scorcese in that light#like chose someone French New Wave if you want to pick someone famous enough to be recognizable but someone you'd associate with snobs#(fairly or otherwise). like not that he deserves it either but Jean-Luc Godard is right there

conjuring an alternate dimension version of the looney tunes show in my mind where bugs is a washed up celebrity in LA and daffy and porky are out of work actors a la its always sunny on tv and the show follows bugs' transition journey
#this is me being silly ofc#but . part of it isnt#the part i think is bad isnt the bugs transgender part its the “sitcom abt out of work actors in LA” part#there r probably 8 billion sitcom pilots abt out of work actors in LA i dont know why everytime i see a sitcom thats deeply flawed#but compelling my first instinct is to go “but what if it was about actors in LA.....”#what is he in rabbits run again. a taxi driver? also not crazy abt that#bugs as a has-been is extremely compelling to me#also OBVIOUSLY dafpork real in this version. did i even need to say that#actually porky wouldnt be an out of work actor he'd be doing better than bugs or daffy he'd just be humble abt it#meanwhile bugs would be like “i won an oscar you know. did you know that”#maybe porky as moderately successful producer daffy as out of work actor and bugs as a has been#oh my god an lola needs to be there too how could i forget about her. shes insane shes doing some dee reynolds shit in this scenario#also an out of work actor#charlie words

i also think he wasn't happy about getting pole, but it being for the sprint race and not the actual race.
i stg he mentioned in at least 3 different places that i've seen how disappointed he was that pole couldn't have happened in the actual quali instead of the sprint quali (i am delusional, but never say never lando)
no ur absolutely right - not to expose myself bc i think i mightve jinxed him but i rmbr in qatar secretly hoping he wont win the sprint before he wins a real race bc i knew i was never gonna hear the end of ppl arguing abt whether that counts as a first win or not, and i think that possibility is rearing its head again. and i think rn hes annoyed bc hes just done one of the quali performances of his life for like a weird quasi-official thing that can only rly give him 8 points at best. if real quali was on friday like it used to be on sprint weekends this performance wouldve put him on real pole. so i rly understand him being ambivalent bc i think id feel the same. this is a bit better than 2022 where real quali didnt count for squat (see: kevin in brazil) but its still a weird thing that the drivers still dont rly like even when they do well. sometimes BECAUSE they do well
#in a weird way i actually think oscar winning qatar made sprints more real for lando#bc if he'd won he'd have said it doesnt count but bc it was oscar & he doesnt wanna seem like he has an ego he says it does#but yk. still#lando#shanghai 2024#ask#anon

marty (1955) was the first ethical incel pass it on
#I watched a while ago bc of a YouTube vid#it won the Oscar then which for 1955 I can see why#ig the best way to put it is that it’s similar to the barbie movie but from a very male perspective#this guy marty whose in his 30s (omigosh!!) a little overweight and unmarried is kinda just living life#like he’s surrounded by misogyny and he thinks to himself “yeah this is fucking weird”#and it’s rather nice#but todays standards it’s like nothing new but for 1955 it was kinda big#so not bad#i give it a 7.5/10

someone retweeted statler and waldorf onto my timeline and i am charmed to announce that emmy award winning composer nicholas britell follows them
#i thought for sure he won an oscar but apparently not#one of many crimes the academy of motion picture arts and sciences will one day pay for#old man yells at cloud#also i need you all to know that i checked if he follows other muppets and i think the answer is no
