#i watched the film over a year ago
Text
the nightingale could've been good if it weren't for the weird cringe ending and the fact it was more about the woes of the coloniser woman instead of the dude baykali ganambarr was playing (who knocked it out of the park)
#its a movie abt early colonisation lutriwita tas#its fairly intense. like theres a rape scene and they kill a lot of aboriginal people on camera#i suppose its good to see a film depicting the actions of settlers so unfavourably but also you can reaaallllyyyyyy tell it was made by a#white woman#its like Very white woman#the main plot is abt her getting revenge on the dude that raped her and then killed her family (? i dont remember) and for some fucking#reason when she gets to him she starts singing ???????????????????#really weird#and i dont even remember what happened to billy. (baykali)#i think he ran at some settlers with a spear and they shot him ? random#the middle of it when they were travelling together was good though#i watched the film over a year ago#made by the same woman who made the babadook

procrastination is starting to have its consequences finally
#on my friends living room floor they love together but one of them has been london for weeks or maybe months#to be with her love. im on a foam mattress from one of their beds next to a glass bottle of water opened by one of them#in a mug given to me by another. the weather felt like my childhood today and it also felt like 2 years ago.#(put space in the heavens Einstein's idea and hes your friend too so nothing to fear) around the table they drank and laughed and i thought#i hope you keep growing so full with the love you receive . i hope your appetite becomes insatiable from how used to it you are#and i know youre all leaving soon but i hope one day you miss this and that youll be happy you miss it#its worth missing i think#i thought he didnt care but he said after exams hes going walk around this area over and over#(this is near where he lived and where we visited almost daily for a year)#(hed come across the bridge on a lake)#we went where she used to live and at the entrance a fox sat calmly. it just yawned and stared.#it felt important somehow. i think maybe their impressions of me will never be close to how i feel inside but i think#i love them enough for that not to matter. i dont think theyll ever know this. i dont think if they did it would change much.#and seeing them smile makes my heart glow anyway. today i tried their malaysian tea the ginger burned my throat#they warmed my heart. hes going to canada soon and hes going to the US soon and shes going everywhere soon ill never understand#how were supposed to live with memories and with seperation and with the past but we do it anyway so i think it doesnt matter much#i wanted to write a poem for the lab rats with the fibre optic wires lit with blue forcing them to turn around and around#something about how im sorry that the two photon arrays burned the inside of your brain. im sorry about the sharp points of multielectrode#arrayes. im sorry about everything we do to you. she asked to see me tomorrow. im trying to have self control but i miss her so awfully#last night my friend talked to me and i updated on everything that happened with love and the lack of it and she just started laughing#and she told me about the same thing from her side. and she told me about how she loved london because she would walk the streets#and she felt like the people were her. and her eyes would go over the people and the bag of bagels and the construction men they probably#have a kid at home maybe shes a daughter. this kid is crying for her mother and the building you just walked past caused#blisters and pain and people died in it and very likely people were born in it. we talked for hours and i felt like#i was holding her hand just like that time she held mine watching a horror film. i love her so much#my friend is a genius and i remember her picking up the charms of my phone and staring at the leaf hanging from them. shes side stepping to#music drinking dangerous cider and cocktails from a movie and chit chatting with billionaires and undergrads#i love her dearly. his head covered in electrodes. she tells me about a syrian guy shes in love with and she says#what you feel and what i feel is like cocaine. ive tried a lot of fucking cocaine.#she says ive reminded her of what living actually feels like and to never put energy into someone who doesnt see me this way.

okay thats interesting! in the SF try-outs during the song "legally blonde" she sings about how she cant be legally blonde, while in the official version AND THE DEMO she sings about letting her be legally blonde. which means that at some point they changed the lyrics around, and then changed them back! laurence o'keefe.... nell benjamin.... what occurs in your twisted minds
#covers mouth sorry so sorry guys#im a huge fan of beacon of positivity + good boy (elle puts a leash on emmett confirmed) + love and war (not in the demo but part of SF)#+ i liked some of the lyrics in the demo version of so much better (it called back to beacon of positivity!!! (i am insane)) such as:#I dream of your name next to my own but mine's looking fine up there alone#but i greatly prefer all the official songs we got. well. maybe good boy over ireland wouldve been fun (i think ireland is boring)#but itd play into the 'all men are dogs hurr hurr' joke that im glad they avoided. anyways. what was i saying.#right i havent listened to every version of everything yet (for example theres a SF version of chip on my shoulder i need to watch)#(and just the SF vers in general. shes hidden from me... why was emmett there before the remix... let me see their conversation)#but from what i have heard they made a lot of changes that were sorely needed. in take it like a man demo shes so much meaner??#it made me sad. it wasnt a duet + they wrung out the romantic tension (no subtext by calvin klein... sigh) + shes meaner!!!!#in the bway vers hes baffled but enjoys going along w it + she genuinely likes him even when hes wearing his regular clothes#but in the demo vers she keeps calling him stuff like ugly duckling and talking about how the geek is gone :( but she likes that geek..#the lines 'how much do you think i earn??' and 'kindly shut up :)' are funny but speak to a dynamic between the two that makes me sad...#follow me for more beautiful opinions on a fifteen year old musical#(heaves. do you know weird it is to see comments from 15yrs ago when this was actually showing. my brother is fifteen.)#god im so sorry i should be put down like a dog#lgb bootleggers are intense. i swear they got a bootleg every night or smth bc we got her shoe flying off + SF + kyle as understudy etc#go watch a so much better compilation sometime how did they take so many bootlegs?? how did you find them??#and its awesome cause these were filmed on 2007/2008 tech which means they have 15 pixels maximum#SORRRRYYYYYYYYYY

Watched Hellraiser 2: Hellbound for the first time tonight and I'm sorry, Pinhead really went from "Kirsty I can't wait to torture you" to "NEVERMIND I'M GOING TO PROTECC AND DIE FOR YOU INSTEAD" in 2 seconds flat?!
#I'd watched the original hellraiser a long ass time ago and honestly forgot he had a soft spot for protag girl#honestly the film itself was all over the place#truly a hot mess#but the pinhead and kirsty scenes were interesting af 👀👀👀#not me learning their ship name 🤦♂️#hellraiser#hellraiser 2#pinhead#kirsty cotton#pinsty#this movie came out the year i was born wtf#im old

do u guys ever remember watching a movie but dont actually remember the movie at all.
Like you KNOW you watched the movie before but the plot just...you watch it and it's all new to you. You realize you never remembered what it was like in the first place. none of it is familiar. none of it comes back to you. you're watching a movie for the first time on you second, third, fifth, tenth, etc viewing...
#text#adhd#memory loss#memory issues#memeory#poor memory#some ppl joke abt this being funny#or even greate becuz u experience it all over again#which is true to an extent#but it is kinda sad to me.... i can forget so easily a film i watched#and btw this post isn't abt films with boring plots this happens with films no matter good or bad#and this isnt an age thing either#it could be a movie i saw decades ago or last year or even a month or a few weeks ago#it just leaves my head and I'm never the wiser#idk

Jim getting choked by Pathaan's thicc ass thighs. Jim choking Pathaan albeit not with his thighs. there are so many ways that this could go but i need the rest of you to know that in this instance it is unfortunately not going where you think it is
#film: pathaan#pathaan#shah rukh khan#srk#bollywood#john abraham#local gay watches Pathaan (and loses their sh*t while doing so).txt#local gay watches Bollywood.txt#they met each other maybe five minutes ago and they already have divorced enemies-with-possible-benefits energy.#might share a child together. they've been battling over custody for three years and it's not getting any closer to the finish line#than when it started. they might still be f*cking each other in between showing up on court dates. wild#granted they are hanging off of a zipline suspended between two helicopters atm but#missed opportunity sirs!!! i need to write that fic i will probably end up writing that fic

A Ghost Story for Christmas: A View from a Hill (BBC, 2005)
"Who's Baxter?"
"He was a watchmaker down in the village. Well before my time, of course. Fancied himself an archaeologist, like yourself."
"Well... I am an archaeologist. Actually, I'm a doctor."
"I'll have to get you to take a look at my feet."
#a ghost story for christmas#a view from a hill#bbc#horror tv#single play#m. r. james#luke watson#peter harness#2005#mark letheren#pip torrens#david burke#simon linnell#pier wilkie#harry escott#andy price#somehow my first ever viewing of this. when the ghost stories returned‚ some 27 years since the original strand wrapped up#at the end of the 70s‚ i was already a fan of Clark's films.. maybe tho i was too scared of New Horror to give this a go? i don't honestly#remember (and it is gulp nearly 20 years ago now). i dimly remember it being on tv but i didn't watch; there was another the following year#but then nothing much until Gatiss took over and started his run with The Tractate Middoth in 2013 (which i certainly did watch‚ it remains#a favourite of the newer plays). finally catching up to this and it's pretty good? not a stone cold classic‚ but a solid modern rendition#of a James tale. it does suffer just a little from the era in which it was made: like much early 2000s tv this was shot on standard def#video‚ a big step up from the video tapes of the 60s and 70s but inherently lacking the rich textures and hues of the og ghost stories#(thankfully shot on film) or even the polish and gloss of the Gatiss productions (presumably hd digital). it's not bad quality by any means#it just doesn't have that... lustre that adds so much to the visual ghost story. Letheren makes for a rather spiky and less genial Jamesian#protagonist than many‚ but he's good at selling the terror and the confusion in the latter half. always nice to have Burke pop up but#he is a little underused‚ or rather‚ his one big scene (relating a ghastly tale of old) is directed rather flatly and doesn't have the#impact it could or should have had. still‚ by no means a bad play‚ and a sincere treatment of the source

I don't even like men and I'm somehow already a military wife, what goes on
PS. Don't open the tags unless you want a big ass wall of text of me rambling on your screen
#hit#im just honestly so glad that I've become a lot more chill with the whole being an army thing#in the sense that i used to be a lot more attached and hyped over everything#i do still get very hyped and i do still have an attachment to them n their work but y'know just more toned down#(i mean i remember the days of staying up all night to watch award shows knowing damn well they'd always perform last)#(mma 2018 was an emotional rollercoaster like i legit cried a little from the tiredness and being overwhelmed with the performance)#so im glad im a lot more calm about the enlistment news than what i would've been say three years ago before they started to#take longer breaks and eventually announce the hiatus this year#it's like they did it in purpose so that the fandom would grow a bit more used to it n im glad to see that a huge majority are very calm#many are sad ofc but its not being treated as some kind of horrific news#if anything ppl are coping with humor including me lmao#so idk im mostly just happy for them that they're taking their VERY well deserved break before doing their service#i just hope everything goes well and is decently peaceful (as peaceful as enlistment can be at least lol) for them once they're there#now why am i rambling in the tags? bc i need to put my thoughts in order but i don't wanna clog my blog with a long ass wall of text 💀#I'm at least relieved to know that they already have a set plan of when they're going to go and return + BH is sure af gonna keep putting#out a lot of content that they've filmed over all these years#i mean run bts; documentaries; probably even music and ofc not all of them are gonna go at the exact same time#and ofc stuff related to the HYYH and Chakho#them being absent won't as hard for most hopefully#and hey 2 years aint nothing ive waited far longer for stuff to come out than that we'll be fine!#*cries in silksong and the YOI movie

I received The animated Peter Lorre as an early birthday present and I absolutely love it! Its an enthralling read as a fan of both Peter Lorre and animation history(I'm still surprised by how many characters I grew up with, who I didn't know were Peter parodies till I read the book) and I'm thrilled to own it for myself.....but I do have an issue with it(cause god forbid I enjoy anything without finding something to later complain on tumblr about)
OK so this is the epilogue
And I just.....
#like im sorry im being such a jerk csuse obviously im eternally grateful that someone took the time to compile an index about every peter#lorre caricature/reference in animation they could find#but how does one compile such an index and not notice that references to the actual peter lorre went out the door a loooong time ago#but anyway this is a very cool book#i remember becoming obsessed with the beatles cartoon for a brief period a few years back for how damn weird it is#and one of the funniest things anout it to me was George harrisons weird ass changeable accent#and i had no clue that he sounded like that because his VA just gave him a peter lorre impression#the one about weevil from yugioh was interesting too#cause i grew up with that anime but ive seen yugioh abriged so many times in my teens that i can only hear him sounding like beavis lol#also im pleased about the chameleon from Tuff puppy#cause thats one i actually did recall all by myself and it was nice to have it confirmed#peter lorre#the animated peter lorre#also i dont agree about petes actual image slipping away#if anything i think its the opposite#in an era where his older films are easier for any jo schmo to watch than ever#(i still have faith that well see more of The missing wife in my life time)#i think petes parodies help new generations discover him#whenever i first discovered peter lorre part of my fascination was the weird familiarity i already had of him from cartoons#and now ive been obsessed with him for over two years#matthew hahn#just realised i spelt his name wrong in the meme fml

Purely to amuse myself I made some gifs from Big Country's "East of Eden" music video (which I am hoping to make at least one gifset of because the video is really cool! I believe it's the only Big Country video that's the most like a mini movie. Maybe someone would argue "Just a Shadow" or "Look Away" have a nice storyline, but that's different from being fairly movie-like, I think).
Anyway, in case you couldn't tell, I made these mostly inspired by Tony and Mark. I feel like they're my new...brOTP, if you will. Not even Stuart and Bruce were ever this cute. 😂
#I tried to do image descriptions in the ALT text as well and added some additional context from the video too...not sure if that#was the greatest idea but I felt like doing it anyway. 🤷♀️ I don't think I will for the actual gifset(s) though.#bruh let me tell you making even one gifset from this video is a BITCH with the b&w/color film flip flopping as it does#and the times when there's color film overlayed over the b&w film? FORGET IIIIIIIIIIIIT! I CAN'T DO IT.#anyway I fucking love Tony and Mark's friendship.#I watched an interview with Bruce and Mark from a couple years ago or so and when the interviewers mentioned also recently#interviewing Tony Mark perked up immediately and was like 'oh Tony?????? what's he up to?????????' which was also like 🤦♀️#obviously they don't talk much anymore which I find SO FUCKING SAD. they're the best fucking rhythm section I've ever heard in my LIFE#so they deserve to still at least play together ;-; but they're so cute as friends too#but *coughs* I may be biased since I love Tony but STILLLLLLLLLL#also: tallest dude being besties with the shortest dude in Big Country. that reminds me of another band and brOTP of mine...#my gifs

overall a very successful birthday BUT i need to be a bitch for a minute like i really need to say something that i know will make me sound awful and ungrateful and miserable so. ranting in the tags don’t follow me there.
#birthdays are very much a family occasion in our house and always have been#like you can absolutely make plans and celebrate with friends but they’ve gotta be on other dates#the actual day of birth is family only. like. this specific day means nothing to my friends but 26years ago my mum was in labour. u know???#like. this day is for family. friends can have tomorrow. ok.#ok.#so. we have traditions. lots of them.#one is. whoever’s birthday it is picks any film they want.#and the whole family has to watch it over dinner.#no phones no extra screens like you’ve gotta sit there and pay attention.#the whole point is like. this is my birthday and here is something i want to share with you and discuss with you and think about with you.#ok#i chose my film. we watched my film.#film ends. me & my mam launch into conversation about it.#dad is silent. glance over. he’s pulled out his phone already and is just scrolling twitter paying no attention.#we try to prompt him to share his thoughts.#nothin. silence. we manage to get a ‘yeah i enjoyed it’ and that is LITERALLY it.#mum goes off to bed. i go off to bed. i say goodnight to my dad. he is like. ‘yep’. like. ok. bye i guess.#like do you KNOWWW the shit i have had to watch and critically analyse with that man over the years of his birthdays.#and i have done it!!!! every time!!!!#meanwhile somehow every year on my birthday it’s like. sorry i fell asleep. sorry i fell asleep again.#sorry i can’t disconnect from my phone for 5mins to talk to my family.#like sorry fuck off that man is so fucking disrespectful sometimes. and on my BIRTHDAY????#thank god for my mum thank god she’s so great bcus. jesus christ.

social media has evolved into such a voyeuristic spectacle over the last five to ten years its truly shocking to me like excluding tumblr 90% of the explore pages on other apps is just videos of peoples faces set to music or people talking directly to the camera etc etc......by contrast on tumblr there is still a sort of sheen of anonymity based on how its formatted and usually when you interact with a post you read or watch the content first and then learn the users identity second by clicking on their profile ie the dash is not just a wall of people filming themselves unless its a repost......i remember even only a couple of years ago there was a distinction between people who were influencers and got paid to film themselves 24/7 for instagram but now its like every average person on reels/tiktok is performing the same kind of theater for free......i cant imagine what that would do to your psyche long term

been listening to a lot of luna sea’s LA live album from 2011 lately because a lot of the studio versions of their big hits like rosier, slave, storm etc aren’t available on streaming platforms but the live album is and it’s got me thinking, man. i would probably kill to see luna sea actually.
#luna sea in boston when#i feel like that one could actually happen tho#someone needs to tell me when tho bc this news doesnt come to me until i find out about it months later#from misc nostalgic googling of particular j rock bands which happens kinda cyclically#i got lucky getting into scandal in 2021 bc i got to see mirror the next year and they were awesome live#years ago i knew of an australian blogger who would make trips to korea to see exo#in a way which was kind of questionable and was often bragged about in their tags about missing 'their family'#(they're not from korea they meant they were missing exo)#but actually if i ever make a trip to japan i would love to see a band there that would probably not come over here#no one in particular but ykno not every j rock band is scandal not everyone's actually gonna make money playing here#if luna sea tour over here again in the next couple years or so i hope they come to boston it would be awesome#dont make me travel to you luna sea but you do sound really good live... >:(#also does anyone know if the film of 'luna sea 3d in los angeles' is available to stream anywhere? even on youtube#i'm reading that that is a thing i would be down to watch it#damn luna sea's such a good band#luna sea#visual kei#j rock#shut up kaily

Back to my yearly tradition of watching Summer Holiday and finding more new things that are horribly un-PC about it
#without fail it gets slightly worse with each year#and i discover something new that really hasn't aged well#but still i watch it equally without fail... it's the nostalgia of it all! and the summery vibe#it's like. i KNOW many things are bad about it bc it was made over 60 years ago but also i sort of love it#it's just one of those films for me
