People calling men that are barely below average height "short kings" are WEAK and will not survive the winter much less any season... instead start calling men under 5 foot short kings or die by my blade!!!!!
#it DOES bug me when people see a man whos like 5'4 and are like awww tiny baby short king uwu#first of all its infantalizing and makes you look like a fool. second of all. thats nothing#you havent seen anything#!!!#lighthearted post#but honestly like. im semi feminine presenting and afab. and people are such asshats to me about my height#its either them acting like im an innocent uwu bean and then being shocked when i mention sex or curse or live like a normal adult#or its just constant super weird remarks about my body. OOO YOUR HANDS ARE SO TINY!! yeah might be because my Whole Body is Like That#the WORST is people PICKING ME UP? which will result in a kick. you dont get to lift people you barely know into the air#honestly all the shit ive gotten about my height has made me really snarky about the whole subject#if you make a rude comment about it i will make one back!#but like idk being short makes me pretty athletic so. i can at times traverse difficult terrain when others cant >:)#if i could afford it i could take up jockeying and be the fucking best at it because horse can run real fast because im tiny#apparently climbing is surprisingly a lot easier for short people as well

Hi! May I get a dead by daylight match-up for a killer please?
(You matched me with a survivor before and let me just say your writing.....is immaculate! Also I saw your post about not wanting to write dbd match-ups due to using other peoples art and stuff. You don't have to give me a picture or anything but if you still don't want to do it then I completely understand! Also I do match-ups as well so if you'd like one I'd be happy to write you one! :D) Anyways tysm in advance and I hope you have a good day/night!
So I'm straight (might be bi) but for now I'm gonna go with straight. I use she/her pronouns, my top 3 zodiacs are Leo sun, Aries moon, and Leo rising. And I'm a ENTP.
So I'm kinda short I'm 5'4, super skinny and petite, I don't weigh a lot and I get made fun of a lot for it, and I have pale skin and freckles all over my face and body. I have brown thick hair that goes down to my mid back and brown eyes! I'm not very curvy I have the body of a cereal box but hey I have some nice hips and thighs I guess?
When people first see me I look intimidating due to my resting bitch face but if you talk to me I'm pretty nice and warm! Once you get to know me better I can be very sarcastic well no actaully about 99% of everything that comes out of my mouth is sarcastic but hey I just love some good sarcasm! And I can be very reckless and goofy!
I'm also very feisty and if someone even looks at me wrong then it's on....like I will not hesitate to put you in your place. I can be very stubborn and competitive as well. I also live by the saying "Fake it till you make it". Because thats literally what I do lol.
The other side of me is basically really bitchy and cold I kinda have trouble with feeling empathy torwards people sometimes and I tend to shut people out and isolate myself. I hate talking about my feelings and I cover those up too and I act fine but usually I'm not. Also anxiety sucks......and I have that really bad. I also push myself really hard with certain things to the point where it's just unhealthy and I can't stop myself usually other people have to step in and make me take a break for a while when that happens.
I love dry and dark humor that cracks me up a lot. And dad jokes too....I make a lot of those!
I loves 90's and 80's rock but 90's is the best and grunge music is just immaculate ✋😩. But I love anything under the rock genre basically. (Honestly I wish I lived in the 90's)
I also have a grunge style like I love flannels, band t-shirts, combat boots etc.
I hate spiders I have a phobia of them and will literally die if I see one. And I love horror movies!
WAIT, REALLY? I don't remember, I tried to look it up but I'm blind...! @c@
Y- You would really match me? ALRIGHT, I WILL MAKE EXCEPTION and Match you because you sound like such a sweetie. Remember others, that my Matchups are currently NOT OPEN.
I match you with Ji-Woon Hak aka Trickster!
Ji-Woon couldn't be any more drawn to you than he is already. You're a feisty and not to mention extremely cute little thing and he enjoys watching you, but he wanted you to know that he had his sharp eyes on you.
So when you're running away, he throws a knife at you and it hits the tree bark right before your face, forcing you to make a quick stop. There is a piece of paper wrapped in the knife's handle. You take the paper and quickly read it.
'Meet me at the Fog if you wanna have a good time'
What the Hell did that mean? You considered leaving the message be, but the invite proves to be interesting so after the trial, you wander away from the safe fireplace and into the cool Fog.
You don't know where you are supposed to go until you hear singing. It's not Huntress, but a man, and the voice comes closer until you see the Trickster himself.
"My darling, you really came?" He sounds extremely pleased, like a cat who got its paws into the cream.
"You promised a good time. What the fuck was I suppose to do?" You said and the Killer chuckled. "I knew there was a reason I wanted to see you more... Regularly."
"Meaning?"
"Haven't you dated anyone before?" Ji-Woon asked before grinning, "So innocent."
"Fuck you."
"I love you too."
The singer absolutely LOVES how sarcastic you can be. He could live purely by listening to you slay people, both Survivors and Killers with your razor-sharp tongue and quick witty mind. That's just one of many ENTP traits you have.
Also, your grunge style? Cute. You try to be fierce and powerful and he can respect that, but otherwise, he won't take it so seriously... Until the day you are actually wearing HIS band shirt and he is all smiles as he calls you good looking with a good style.
He can tell when your anxiety is taking over your head and he is that selfish that he thinks his singing would make you feel better. It does, but not as much as The Legion's music does. Good thing that Ji-Woon is on good terms with the young killers.
They will borrow their records to the Korean and he gives them for you to listen to. You cheer up in the manner of 6 songs and you're thankful that Ji-Woon went through the trouble getting you music that you like.
Though, you need to kiss him for not liking his songs as much. His songs are his life and he thrives when you listen to him sing.
Ji-Woon can handle it when you are acting bitchy and such and he doesn't mind it if you don't talk about your feelings. He is a little drama queen himself so he won't hold it in if he is feeling bad.
He understands that you don't really empathize with him and doesn't blame you for it. Also, he is ready to come between you and make you rest and while you may curse at him for it, he doesn't let it stop him from tucking you down so you can rest. He knew what he got into when he threw that knife with a note at you.
BIG YES TO DARK JOKES. He loves them and isn't afraid to 'throw' some at you also! Get it? Throw? I crack myself up.
He also finds your fear of spiders hilarious, but bring him a cockroach and he screams like a girl. This man does not like bugs that need to be burned before they will finally die.
Horror movies? Sure, why not but be warned, this man lives for gory movies where people scream. Reminds him of the home back in Korea before the Fog and Entity. But it also reminds him that without those two, he wouldn't have met you. His spicy little grunge girl.

Aot and AAC matchup!!!? Basic info: straight female, 5'4, Scorpio! If it matters my mbdi is debater, which I think is accurate. I'm a bit curvy/soft and I have really long wavy hair and glasses. Now for fun stuff!! I'm a 50-50 split between being very hyperactive (almost like a puppy lmao) or very quiet (not shy, but more like indifferent. I've been told I'm intimidating) I'm into polyships so the more boys the merrier. I love exercise but hate doing it alone lol. 1/3!!
I collect manga and knives and I usually dress in black (and hardly ever wear shorts/anything revealing). I'm usually the "leader" of friendgroups, or the meme Lord.... Or the flirty one. Those are my three usual placements. I've never been in a relationship but that doesn't stop me from being a giant flirt 90% of the time. I like to draw and read but ADHD keeps me from focusing long on the latter. I'm constantly listening to music because it helps my anxiety. I'm terrified of spiders n bugs.2/3
I'm also fairly good at math? I play piano and I love video games but I'm real bad at them. I love horror and scary things but I scare very easily so I pay for it later on lol. I also like rollercoasters!!. I curse a lot and think I come off strongly because of how all over the place I can be, but i try to think more logically than emotionally when it comes to actual problems. I'm a switch so I can lead in relationships or follow.... Thank u ily!!!!! 3/3
Ahh shit this is really late I’m so sorry for the wait!!
Your Aot matchup is:
🐴Jean “I have lost all faith in humanity” Kirstein🐴
Yuuuuuh what a cutie. Please help this boy he needs affection. You probably came off as such a badass to him at first like all black? Collects knives? That’s hot. At some point he probably started flirting with you just to see you get flustered, but then that fails because you FLIRT BACK LMAOO and he’s just standing there and his mind is screaming “ABORT MISSION ABORT MISSION-” but his body won’t move and he just stares at you, face red and everything. He hasn’t underestimated your flirtiness since then but hasn’t stopped with the relentless flirting either. He can adapt to both of your personalities. When you’re being hyper and almost puppy-like, he goofs around with you, yelling nonsense and cacking randomly like a crackhead. When you’re being quiet and indifferent, he always finds a way to make you feel good as well. He won’t push you to be hyper, he just wants you to feel safe and comfortable. I feel like he loves to act tough when it comes to horror like he pretends to be Mr tough guy oh I don’t get scared by stupid ghosts they’re dumb but then he’s grabbing onto your arm and screaming at every little jumpscare of the movie lmao it’s hilarious and he won’t admit that he’s scared which makes it so much better. I see Jean as someone cares a lot about his looks, so if you feel like doing exercise but you don’t want to do it alone, you can always ask him to join you, he’s always happy to as well. Does not mind one bit if you would like to lead in the relationship, but does like to lead as well, so it’s all good. When times call for it, you have to call Jean out for being rash and emotional, and reason with him.
Your AAC matchup is:
❗️Karma “I’ll kill you but not before screaming I won’t hesitate bitch” Akabane❗️
Just saying, both of you collect knives together lmaoo he thinks the two of you are so similar and somehow falls for that HARD. Karma’s a cheeky bitch that likes to think he’s slick with flirting but really isn’t and is awkward doing it lmaoaooa so when you flirt back insanely well he acts like he’s all good you know mr tough guy but inside he’s literally going “SEJLHFKULWEHCRNHKYGRYWWKRJVWIURGWEIRY AHHHHH” don’t convince me otherwise lolol. The two of you frequently compete over who gets the better maths scores and you don’t stop even though he always wins. Like Jean, he knows how to manage both sides of your personality. He’ll mess around, prank people, and be loud with you when you’re being hyper, but also mellow down and just vibe when you’re being quiet and indifferent. Either way, he thinks you’re a beautiful human being that deserves the world. People say you shouldn’t put two memelords in the same room. Maybe that’s why people literally are scared of the two of you together. The chaos cannot be controlled. Karma appreciates that you like to think logically, and seldom let your emotions get in the way. Facts and logic are key to winning arguments, not sappy emotions. Has similar music taste to you and is down to try anything new, he’s pretty open to anything tbh. Yeah yeah you might be a switch but don’t you think for a SSSSSSSSECOND that he’ll ever let you lead lmao mans is dom as fuck you can’t convince me otherwise-
Hope you like your *very late matches!!<33

For CH/JJBA Basic info: straight female, 5'4, Scorpio! If it matters my mbdi is debater, which I think is accurate. I'm a bit curvy/soft and I have really long wavy hair and glasses. Now for fun stuff! I'm a split between being very hyperactive (almost like a puppy lmao) or very quiet (not shy, but more indifferent. I've been told I'm intimidating) I'm into polyrelationships so the more boys the merrier. I like hiking and sports when I'm with people but don't do it by myself cause it's boring. 1
HERE’S UR FOOD QUEEN. also tumblr got me fucked up w no CH gifs :(
Cute Earth High Defense Club Love (Season One) V1
#1 is…Atsushi!
He’s the most normal out of all the characters, to be honest
When he sees you, it’s nothing spectacularity radiant, per se
There’s a pretty girl in his school! cool!
The strangest part is that it’s an all-boys school, so naturally, he’s confused
Through a series of plot shenanigans, you’re there as an exchange student
And he’s been told he has to help you get settled!!
He introduces you to the Earth Defense Club, and slowly you two grow acclimated with each other
While you’re friendly to everyone else, there’s something different between you and him
It’s chemistry, and even Ryuu wouldn’t dare poke it
One afternoon, someone asks you out via love letter, all the extra stuff
And you turn them down as politely as you can
But thanks to the indifference, the boy gets offended
He turns into a letter-shaped monster, and the Battle Lovers have to step in
Atsushi is both appalled and terrified
Did the monster hurt you??
Why did the monster appear around you?
Was it something to do with you?
He spends half of the battle just covering you
And once the monster starts spewing slander, Atsushi is having none of it.
Whatever the monster says, Atsushi refutes, defending you until the rest of the battle is at a standstill and he’s just bickering with the monster.
Eventually, Atsushi practically makes the monster choke on respect women juice, and on behalf of the passed out student, Atsushi begins apologising non-stop to you
You’re confused as hell
The internet-famous Battle Lovers know you??
All you can see is the blurred out faces, and the blue one, the self-declared Piercing Prince, Epinard, seems to be constantly hanging over you
And honestly
He’s a cutie
This results in a sailor moon-esque situation
Where you have a crush on Epinard, Atsushi has a crush on you, and he’s miserable upon realising what he’s done
Does he reveal that he’s Epinard???
Honestly, probably not on purpose
I can absolutely see them talking about it and he’s like ‘do i always have to yell out im Epindard’ and he turns and sees you
And you’re like ‘????? excuse me???’
Which results in more shenanigans
#2 is…Yumoto!
babey boye
He falls for the flirting every time
He reciprocates as best as he can, but for the most part, it’s just him being soft
He hugs you so much omfg
It gives Wombat a break, and though you don’t know he’s a talking wombat, he’s all for you being there
What’s interesting is that he’s telling everyone he’s gonna marry you
And since most of the ppl in the school are bros, no one’s told you
Which gets awkward
Because he’s 200% told you that he loves you
But you take it as ‘:D! I love platonic love between my Friends! :D!’
So it becomes a Situation that everyone gets second-hand embarrassment from
Yumoto has told his brother that he’s gonna marry you and you’d be the bathhouse’s Okami
But you’re thrown for a loop when Gora asks you when you and Yumoto started dating
And you’re like ‘??????’
This results in a brief but stern conversation between Gora and Yumoto
And Yumoto feels guilty, of course
But you’re so sweet! And you flirt with him!! Doesn’t that mean you like him??
It’s a bit of a wakeup call, but he’s still only got two brain cells
You gotta cut him some slack
For about a day, he chills out, though he’s melancholy
After that he’s back to being oblivious and sweet
#3 is…Kinshiro!
Did someone say ‘emotionally constipated teenager who’s in a rivalry with his childhood best friend for the girl they like but he has no idea how to approach her due to the fact stated above (he is emotionally constipated)’???
no????
Ok that’s valid
But you want a polyamorous relationship???
He and Atsushi are gonna be your best bet.
This boye is completely lost when it comes to wooing you
He thinks you’re graceful in a quiet sense
And while you’re a flirt and a meme lord, you’re also yourself
Ibushi notices almost off the bat
And he’s like ‘my guy, my dude...my cousin??? Fr???’
Kinshiro is crazy confused and embarrassed
He’s always considered himself to have tunnel vision
But then you pass by and he gets a whiff of your shampoo and
Oh no
he gets kinda lightheaded and blushy but wipes it away fast
Whenever you pop by to say hi to Ibushi he completely freezes
Like he just stops moving altogether
It’s something you, Ibushi, and Akoya have noticed
Y’all exchange glances every time he freezes while sipping tea
The MOMENT he realises you like Epinard he gets lowkey pissed
Do you seriously like that barbaric, stupid Battle Lover??
He’s like ‘I’m elite, graceful, rich. I’m the better choice :(‘
Make him drink just a bit of respect women juice
But he’ll be very, very soft for you
And after he finds out about Atsushi being Epinard and Atsushi likes you??
Well, it’s two birds with one stone
He’ll do his best to hint that he likes you, but Akoya and Ibushi have to help him along
Especially Ibushi, since he’s your cousin
Get ready for a flood of thoughtful but expensive gifts
Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure V2
(Note: If you want a poly relationship, all three of these lads have convenient best friends...👀)
#1 is…Josuke!!
Mans is a himbo (refer to chat)
Sure he’s got like, one brain cell, but it’s dedicated to you!!
He’s a bit of a flirt, too, so be ready to fend off the fangirls
Since fangirls in the 90’s were chiller than ones in, say, the 80’s, they mostly respect that he’s got a girlfriend
But the moment one of them tries to hurt a hair on your head, it’s game over
Now
The thing about it is that you get shy
But your shy is looking scary as hell
So all they see is a glare that would make the devil run, and they bail
Josuke relates to your fear of bugs!!
He’s not fond of turtles, so you guys can have each other’s back!!
If you want to draw him something, he can and will frame it in the best frame he can convince Joseph to buy
Is it gold foil?? Maybe
Before y’all get together, he pines like no other
He’ll start frequenting places you go to just because he wants to see you
And he doesn’t think it’s creepy but gets worried that you will
But he thinks you’re incredible
It’s something makes him short circuit a bit
You: :)
Josuke: Now Playing: Beautiful Girl (Alternate Version) [Tempo Track] - Jimmie Thompson, Gene Kelly & Lennie Hayton (Singin’ In The Rain) (1952)
#2 is…Johnny!
Southern boye drank his respect women juice after he got shot
And once he sees you???
He CHUGS it
First off this is like the late 1880’s so anyone who bathes is probably stellar
So he, too, has the Joestar Blessing of having Beautiful Girl play on repeat
But as soon as you start flirting???
He’s GONE
I mean this in the most literal sense
He’s a good Christian boye (theoretically)
So once you talk about dating him he flushes bright red
He’s aware that you’re just flirting, but oh hmmm
He starts crushing fast
Plus if you don’t judge him or think he’s weaker for being in a wheelchair?
Give him a second he’s trying to find a ring
He might be in a wheelchair but he’s in no way inadequate, if you get what I mean 👀
(who am I kidding, of course you do)
Considering that memes weren’t much of the thing in the 1800’s if you find some, he probably wouldn’t understand them
But he does enjoy when you play the piano
But let’s say there’s a stand attack
And you just bust out knives???
instant boner
#3 is… Joseph!
Flirt, but times two
Y’all make anyone blush
No one’s safe
And with each other??
It can get foul, fast
Does Lisa Lisa step in??
No, not really
She’s not gonna interfere at Joseph’s chances of getting laid
Plus she approves so!!
Catch him trying to flex while you’re around
Be it him trying to beat Cesar’s ass (and failing) or literally flexing, he wants to impress you
And while he knows that you’re a flirt for the sake of being one, he also gets a bit nervous when you flirt with others
Especially if he hasn’t confessed, actually confessed, yet
Plus, he’s got a special arm 👀
Y’all know what’s up

Idk if you do multimatchups but it's totally ok if you don't ??? Like some people will do hero and villain matchups but it's ok!! I would understand if not!!! Anyway... A one piece matchup please!!!! I am a straight female,, 5'4 (and slightly chubby) blonde. My hair is very long and kinda curly. I have brown eyes and square/rectangular glasses bc I do be blind as shit you feel me?? 😔 I also wear a lot of black... Now for the fun stuff!! 1/3(hopefully)
I am!!! A fun loving person!!! I have a lot of anxiety but I try to be more optimistic ((and arguably loud)) bc what's so fun about being scared all the time??? Nothing djsjsbd. I am a Scorpio btw if that matters!! And an Debater personality for MBDI types which I think makes sense bc I'm very chatty lmao. I like all kinds of music but I guess mostly poprock stuff?? Kinda the vibe of darker themes but happy beats. I like reading but my attention span is bad.. drawing, playing piano, video games
And I like rollercoasters!! I'm not really good at cooking but I'm trying to learn lol ((I'm ok at baking tho)). I collect knives and more commonly manga. I sleep a loootttt and I love to take walks/explore !!! Uhh.. I'm usually either the mom friend/leader type or the bastard meme type friend lmao. I am VERY flirtatious ((yes I am over 18 if that helps)) but I've never been with anyone 😔. I'm terrified of bugs but ESP spiders !!!! I also studied psychology in highschool. Last part I promise- continuing that thought, I think id want to go to law school if I go to one at all. Thank you again you're super nice and I hope you have a good day and just in case I forgot to say it bc my ADHD to be making me forget but this is for one piece!!!! Love u!!! Xoxo
I match you with...Usopp!
I really think you and Usopp would vibe together. You mentioned your role in friendship dynamics is usually either the mom friend or the chaotic meme bastard, and Usopp fits a similar role on the Straw Hats crew; he's the more sensible one compared to the likes of Zoro and Luffy, who will fight literally anything regardless of the potential consequence, but he's much more chaotic than the other "responsible" members of the crew like Nami and Robin. He's somewhere in the middle, just like you!
Usopp may talk a big game, but any time you flirt with him, he turns into a blushing, flustered mess. Because you??? Think he's handsome??? And you're saying it out loud so everyone can know how much you like him??? AAAAAAAAAAAA
Usopp can definitely relate to your anxiety, and he does his best to help you stay calm during a panic attack or whenever your thoughts are starting to spiral out of control. Whenever there's a battle, he's ready to get you to safety at a moment's notice--not only does he want to help you and make your safety his number one priority, but he can also run away from a fight with you and just try to relax together until shit dies down. He'd try his best to keep your fear of bugs in mind, so even if he wants to show you this cool-ass beetle he captured, he doesn't want to scare you. So he'll just show it off to Chopper and Luffy.
He'd use his inventing and crafting skills to make some glasses that aren't as likely to break on the battlefield; if the ship gets attacked and your glasses got broken, you'd be stumbling around blind and could fall overboard or worse! He'd also use his weapon-making expertise to make all sorts of knives for you to add to your collection; right now, he's working on a way to care a piece of Sea Prism stone into a blade for you to use against any Devil Fruit users in case they try to go after you in a fight.
Because of your interest in roller coasters, he definitely wants to take you the Sabaody Park once Luffy and the crew find the One Piece. And just to prove he's no coward, he'll ride any attraction no matter how terrifying it is--the fact that he's screaming at the top of his lungs the entire time is irrelevant. He is a brave man, dammit. He'd try to get recipe books for you if he thinks you'd like them, but he's a liiiiitle bit cagey about asking Sanji to give you lessons on cooking/baking. He's not insecure or anything...okay, yes, yes he is. He knows deep down you wouldn't leave him for Sanji, but still, he'd get annoyed if Sanji did his whole heart-eyed "Ero Cook" shit around you.
He'd always want to partner up with you when the crew is exploring a new island, and when you're sailing the seas, he likes to just walk around the outside deck with you at night as a little date. He thinks you can't see how much he blushes when it's nighttime. He's very wrong. He's not as into naps as Zoro, but he does tend to sleep late when he's out at sea. He's got a bed set up in the Sunny's workshop and it's pretty common for you to stay up with him a bit and then fall asleep in his cot, only for him to carefully climb in as well to cuddle with ya until he falls asleep.

Epic Movie (Re)Watch #121 - Back to the Future
Spoilers below.
Have I seen it before: Yes
Did I like it then: Yes!
Do I remember it: Yes.
Did I see it in theaters: Yes.
Was it a movie I saw since August 22nd, 2009: Yes. #383.
Format: Blu-ray
This is super long. You have been warned.
1) I love this movie. With all my heart. With a burning passion. It is my favorite film of all time. I first saw it...well, I was probably 7 when I first saw it but I didn’t remember it much. I first saw it and remembered it on my 13th birthday and watched it with my family and freaking fell in love! I ended up watching it once a month for the next year, I’ve seen it easily at least 20 times, I even got a chance to see the entire trilogy in theaters on October 21, 2015! And I think that’s all because it is connected to a time in my life when I needed an escape like this. Back to the Future provided me with comfort during a year in my life which was one of the hardest in my life. I would not be a film student today if it were not for this movie, I could probably write a book on the trilogy! I’ll do my best to keep this shorter than a book though.
2) The opening pan of Doc Brown’s lab is a great way to start the film. The high number of clocks puts an emphasis on times (with the clock of Harry Lloyd hanging from the hour hand being particularly foreshadowing), and we get a lot of information for smoothly.
Doc Brown used to be rich but his mansion burned down.
We know the film is set in 1985.
There is some missing plutonium.
Doc is an inventor, as seen from all the inventions he has in the lab.
It’s a simple, memorable way to start the film and I love it.
3) Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly!
Marty McFly is honestly you’re average guy without being boring. He’s got people in his life he cares about and who care about him, he’s got ambitions even if they’re not “change the world” ambitions, he has anxieties, and he’s just very relatable. Also he’s pretty cool, and his introduction establishes a lot of important things about Marty. It shows us his love for music, a sharp wit (“Rock ‘n Roll!”), and an ability to roll with the punches (for example, being flung across the room by an amplifier and then saying, “Rock ‘n Roll!”).
Honestly Marty NEEDS Michael J. Fox. Eric Stoltz was originally cast in the role as Fox (who was the filmmakers’ first choice) was busy on his TV show “Family Ties” at the time but Stoltz was just NOT working out. It’s easy to make Marty sort of annoying on paper. There’s a Back to the Future comic book running right now and there was an arc starting around issue #6 where Marty started to bug me. And that’s because he was PURELY writing, there was no Michael J. Fox to bring that x factor Marty needs so badly. Fox (who ended up working on both “Family Ties” and Back to the Future at the same time) is what MAKES the character. There is no Marty McFly without Michael J. Fox.
4) Doc tells Marty that his, “experiment worked! [The clocks] are all exactly 25 minutes slow!” How is that an experiment? Can’t I do that with my clocks?
5) “The Power of Love” by Huey Lewis & The News is a great theme song for the film. I personally prefer “Back in Time” which plays towards the end of the film, but there’s no underestimating the power of “The Power of Love”. It’s a memorable, slick tune, which plays under a scene which very easily gives us a sense of what the town of Hill Valley is like. Another key ingredient to the film.
6) Freaking Strickland.
Strickland is not on screen for much time but he’s memorable. And that’s because he’s a raging asshole. Actor James Tolkan is able to play Strickland well in his few scenes because he makes his assholish nature funny. Much like Jeffrey Jones’ character in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Strickland is someone MAD with the little power he has. I mean look at that GIF above! Personal space, dude! It’s hysterical, and the character forever changes the way I hear the word, “slacker!”
7) Hey, look Huey it is! (I’m so sorry.)
8) In there few scenes together, Michael J. Fox and Claudia Wells make you feel that Marty and Jennifer REALLY love each other. There’s a quiet trust and honesty to their performance, an ability to talk with each other openly while being true to who they are. Do you think Marty would tell ANYONE else his fears about his rejection? His parents? No, no he wouldn’t. It’s a shame we didn’t get more Jennifer in the film, but the little we do is much appreciated.
9) This film really excels in the exposition department, because it gives you the information you need to know in smooth natural ways. You don’t feel like the film has paused to tell you, “This information is important,” it just makes sense! Whether it’s done for laughs or because it’s an honest character moment, it just works! This is true in:
The “Save the Clocktower” scene.
Lorraine telling her children how her and George met.
Doc Brown giving us ALL the exposition we need about his time machine.
10) Oh Biff.
Biff [after we learn he wrecked George’s car]: “I can’t believe you lent me your car without telling me it had a blind spot in it!”
I’ll talk more about Biff once we get to 1955.
11) Thomas F. Wilson, Crispin Glover and Lea Thompson all day amazingly playing the old age versions of their characters. You don’t feel like you’re watching 20 somethings play adults, you feel like you’re watching adult performers! And then it feels as natural when they’re playing the teenagers in 1955. It just works and I give massive credit to not only the actors for pulling that off but also the makeup people for not making the old age stuff look too ridiculous.
12) Okay, what 47 year old man calls someone a butt head? Like, how juvenile is that? I mean that’s probably the point, because it’s Biff, but still!
13) It’s a running gag throughout the series that Marty’s uncle/Lorraine’s sister Joey is in jail. Except...WHAT IS HE IN JAIL FOR!?!? I MUST KNOW!!!! MURDER!? ARSON!? FRAUD!? FALSE ADVERTISING!? WHAT IS IT JOEY!?
14) So, Lorraine in 1985 seems...pretty miserable to me. With watching it 20+ times I see that she’s pretty much an alcoholic, she’s always morose, she rarely smiles, and the look on her face after she recounts the story of how she and George fell in love...like she does NOT look happy!
And then that line becomes sort of greater after finishing the film. By 1955 standards she “chased” Marty as Calvin Klein, meaning she probably felt that she chased George too. Now she regrets that and wants to A) create some revisionist history and B) make sure other people don’t make her perceived mistakes. Thank god for time travel to make her life better though!
15) Remember this sign:
16) Alan Silvestri’s INCREDIBLE score does not kick in until 18 minutes into the film, first appearing when the DeLorean first shows up. That’s because up until this point life was normal. Marty went to school, got busted for being late, Biff was an ass, a normal day. Then the extraordinary enters the picture and Silvestri’s score signals us of that.
17) Christopher Lloyd as the iconic Doctor Emmett Brown.
(GIF source unknown [if this is your GIF please let me know].)
Lloyd is spectacular in the role. Be is able to mash up the mad scientist archetype and bring to it a warmth and childlike glee to every moment. He is EXCITED! He’s passionate about all he does and that is his dominating personality trait. He’s not mean or condescending like Dr. Frankenstein, he’s just this guy who wants to do something great with his life and he finally accomplishes that! Lloyd is great through and through, bringing that essential warmth and energy to every scene Doc is in. He feels over the top but he never feels phony. And his chemistry with Fox is off the charts.
Fun fact: Doc’s signature hunched over stature came about because Christopher Lloyd (6'1") is significantly taller than Michael J. Fox (5'4½") & they had to appear in frame together.
18) There is a fan theory out there that Doc was actually trying to commit suicide the night of the DeLorean test. He had himself and Marty placed right in front of the car, was joyfully surprised when it actually worked, and in 1955 comments that he, “finally invent[s] something that works!” That makes the film way dark way fast so we’re going to move on.
19) The DeLorean going into the future is just such an iconic image.
(GIF sources unknown [if these are your GIFs please let me know].)
Everything about that visually is so iconic and incredible. From the flames to the pair turning around, and ESPECIALLY the spinning license plate! All great!
20) The DeLorean.
Marty: “Wait a minute, wait a minute Doc! Are you telling me that you built a TIME MACHINE...out of a DeLorean?”
Doc’s immediate response was that he wanted to build a time machine with some style, and then goes on to say, “The stainless steel construction was perfect for,” and is cut off by the DeLorean returning to the present. WHAT IS THE STAINLESS STELL CONSTRUCTION PERFECT FOR DOC!? WHAT!?
According to IMDb:
Writers Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis actually received a fan letter from John DeLorean after the film's release, thanking them for immortalizing his car.
21) The interior of the car is just as sleek and simple as the exterior. There is nothing superfluous in this film, and everything that’s necessary is fun!
(I know this GIF is from Part II but it’s the best one I can find of the readout.)
22) I read a post on Tumblr which you can find here which said:
One of my favorite phrases my Creative Writing professor had for when you’re writing fantasy is ‘giving your story a Flux Capacitor’.
Because it’s not real, it doesn’t exist. But the way it’s thrown into Back to the Future, at no point does it throw the audience off or suspend any more disbelief than time travel would. You believe Doc when he says he created the Flux Capacitor - the thing that makes time travel possible, because the universe never questions him.
So it essentially means like, there are going to be elements to your universe that are just not gonna make any sense, even if you set up a whole system based on it. And the only way to make it work is completely own it. You cannot second-guess your system or else the reader will too. You can give it the strangest explanation, but write it like you own it.
23) Foreshadowing!
Doc [after he says he’ll visit 25 years in the future]: “I’ll also be able to see who wins the next 25 world series!”
24) The car chase between Marty and the Libyan nationalists is the first showcase of the film’s excellent action. In the action-y parts of the film the audience is kept tense at every turn. Every little moment has a cause and an effect and you’re just waiting on the edge of your seat to see what happens because of it. That’s great.
25) Robert Zemeckis has said that he and the filmmakers talked about having the time travel sequence be long and cool, but they realized it should be instantaneous. That when you travel back in time, you travel back in time in the same spot you’re in. It’s not like a TARDIS which moves you through time and space: if where you are was a farm 30 years ago, then when you travel back 30 years in time you’ll be in a farm.
26) Remember this:
youtube
27) The scene where Marty is wandering through Hill Valley in 1955 is done so well, and it establishes Hill Valley’s character. Because that’s what this town is: a character. Marty never travels back to Ancient Rome or Capone’s Chicago, it is ALWAYS Hill Valley and we get to know the town and its history because of that.
28) Biff and his crew.
Biff is shown at his most villainous in 1955, when he’s a big freaking bully! But Thomas F. Wilson also makes him enjoyable to watch. You like it when he gets punched and embarrassed, and Wilson brings a lot of humor to what could be a very cold role. I’ll talk about one important improv later.
PS: That guy with the toothpick is Billy Zane!
(GIF originally posted by @d-white211)
29) Crispin Glover SHINES as 1955 George.
He’s a total weirdo in the role but that’s what makes it work! He’s socially awkward and a pushover and THAT’S his character, but Glover also makes it believable that George goes through the transformation he does by film’s end. It’s a shame they couldn’t really get him for the sequels.
30) Man, just wait until Lou gets to 2008.
Lou [after he hears that Goldie Wilson wants to be mayor, which he becomes]: “A colored mayor, that’ll be the day.”
31) This film handles the ideas of expectations vs reality well (like when Marty finds out his dad’s a peeping tom), and that’s where it shines. This isn’t some time travel film about time bandits or something. The science fiction is just the device to tell this really interesting, human story about a kid realizing he’s got more in common with his parents than he thought. And THAT’S why it’s so special!
32) Wait...
Sam Bane [after Marty pushes George out of the road and gets hit by his car]: “Stella! Another one of these damn kids jumped in front of my car!”
ANOTHER!?
33) Okay so the fact that Lorraine has the hots for her future son Marty is creepy (that’s the point), but it also makes sense. As I understand it human beings are naturally disposed to experience physical attraction to our own genetics in other people. So if you don’t KNOW it is your family member, than you just think it’s someone who’s cute because they look like you.
Also the way Lorraine handles herself around Marty (ie: over the top attracted to him, pushing him into a chair next to her, being so shocked by him showing up at school she falls back into her locker) makes me think she may be REALLY sexually repressed. Like, unhealthily so. Freaking 50s, man.
34) And there’s only one way Doc Brown could possibly open a door: looking like this.
35) A fun fact about this line:
Doc: “Then tell me, future boy: who’s president of the United States in 1985.”
Marty: “Ronald Reagan.”
Doc: “Ronald Reagan!? The actor!?”
President Reagan loved that line so much he asked the projectionist to play it again, and even used the quote, “Where we’re going we don’t need roads,” in his 1986 State of the Union address. I miss having a President who was secure like that.
36) Me too Marty. Me too.
Doc [after hearing they need 1.21 gigawatts of electricity to get the DeLorean to work]: “1.21 GIGAWATTS!? 1.21 GIGAWATTS! GREAT SCOTT!”
Also, did you notice that this is my 121st Epic Movie (Re)Watch? As in 121. As in 1.21? ;)
37) Roll credits!
Doc: “Next Saturday night, we’re sending you back TO THE FUTURE!”
38) Doc’s bemusement at Marty’s slang is so great to me. It feeds into his idea about what the future will be like.
Doc: “Why is everything so heavy in the future, is there a problem with the earth’s gravitational pull?”
39) I never got why Strickland called George a slacker for being bullied but he never calls out the bullies. Granted this has been happening in schools all across America for years now and I don’t get that either.
40) Remember how I said Lorraine’s marriage to George was unhappy?
Doc [about Marty’s parents]: “What are their common interests? What do they like to do together?
Marty [after a beat]: “Nothing.”
41) The idea of this being a boy who gets to know his parents really comes through when Marty learns that George writes sci-fi stories but doesn’t share them with anyone for fear or rejection. In the original timeline, did George keep writing sci-fi as an adult? Did Lorraine know? Did he tell ANYBODY and get rejected and that just made him stop writing? I have so many questions!
42) Thomas F. Wilson improvised this iconic line of Biff’s:
43) According to IMDb:
Universal Pictures head Sid Sheinberg did not like the title “Back to the Future", insisting that nobody would see a movie with "future" in the title. In a memo to Robert Zemeckis, he said that the title should be changed to "Spaceman From Pluto", tying in with the Marty-as-alien jokes in the film, and also suggested further changes like replacing the "I'm Darth Vader from planet Vulcan" line with "I am a spaceman from Pluto!" Sheinberg was persuaded to change his mind by a response memo from Steven Spielberg, which thanked him for sending a wonderful "joke memo", and that everyone got a kick out of it. Sheinberg, too proud to admit he was serious, gave in to letting the film retain its title.
44) George is absolutely hysterical in the diner scene.
DUDE YOU’RE A WRITER!!! DID YOU REALLY THINK THAT’S WHAT YOU WROTE DOWN!?!?!?
45) When Marty is confronting Biff at the bar and then in the skateboard chase around town, he plays it smart not tough. He distracts Biff before his one punch of the big brute and then maneuvers him around town in a way that’ll be beneficial to the young time traveler. It’s another excellent action scene which keeps you riveted at every turn.
46) There are probably so many GIFs out there of just Doc Brown reacting. This is one of my favorites:
47) Marty and his mother don’t get to know each other as well as George and Marty do, primarily because she’s trying to seduce him during his entire stay in 1955. But the scenes of George and Marty together as friends are great.
48) Also this line is attributed to Doc in the beginning of the film but we never hear him say it. Jennifer says it to Marty, Marty to George, and then George to Marty in the future.
49) Doc and Marty’s friendship in this film is great, as Marty is trying desperately to save Doc’s life in the future despite Doc not wanting to know. Marty respects Doc’s wishes but will be damned if he does nothing (hence the letter). Their friendship is developed as the trilogy progresses but it starts out strong.
50) Marty tries to prevent Lorraine’s alcoholism by keeping her from drinking when she’s 17. I appreciate that.
50.1) One of the best bloopers ever.
youtube
51) (Trigger Warning For This Note: RAPE) Okay, I love this movie but as I grow older I find that it kind of glosses over the fact that Biff is trying to RAPE Lorraine. And later in 1985 she’s totally fine having her attempted rapist come by their place regularly to wax their cars. Like...that’s super weird.
52) I always felt this scene could have either gone two ways: George becomes a self confident hero, or George becomes Norman Bates.
That’s like a really murdery face.
53) This is a very Hitchockian rule: it’s never over when you think it’s over. George punched out the bad guy and he’s going to the dance with Lorraine. All’s well right!? Well...no. Marty has to play guitar otherwise it’ll all go to shit. Marty, who’s super self conscious about rejection when it comes to playing guitar.
54) Johnny B. Goode!
The filmmakers described this scene as Marty’s victory lap. He just got his parents together! He’s playing the school dance! He’s going to go back to the future tonight! He’s going to have fun, and that’s what the number is. It doesn’t feel superfluous or unnecessary, it adds to the heart and excitement of the film. It’s amazing!
55) According to IMDb:
In the original script, Marty's playing rock and roll at the dance caused a riot which had to be broken up by police. This, combined with Marty accidentally tipping Doc off to the "secret ingredient" that made the time machine work (Coca-Cola) caused history to change. When Marty got back to the 1980s, he found that it was now the 1950s conception of that decade, with air-cars and what-not (all invented by Doc Brown and running on Coca-Cola). Marty also discovers that rock and roll was never invented, and he dedicates himself to starting the delayed cultural revolution. Meanwhile, his dad digs out the newspaper from the day after the dance and sees his son in the picture of the riot.
I don’t know how accurate that is but it’s fun to think about!
56) Not only am I going to include this next quote, but I’m also going to include what I said the first time I watched this movie with my family.
Doc [waiting for Marty to show up]: “Damn where is that kid?”
Doc [waiting, then checking watch]: “Damn.”
Me [with my family]: “Man, there’s a lot of swearing in this movie.”
Doc [checking his watch again]: “DAMN DAMN!”
That scene is so much funnier to me now just because of that instance.
57) The Clock Tower Climax is spectacular and it follows an age old rule of conflict: everything that can go wrong does go wrong. The cable comes undone, the car won’t start, Doc falls off the ledge (remember that foreshadowing I mentioned in point #2?), the cable is stuck on a tree, all while the clock is literally ticking away at their once chance to get this. It is glorious, and using the clock tower just reinforces the idea of time in the film (it was originally going to be a nuclear test site, à la Kingdom of the Crystal Skull) but they went for this iconic scene instead. Thank you filmmakers. Thank you.
58) Remember how the mall was called Twin Pine Mall in the beginning of the movie, and then when Marty went back in time he killed one of Peabody’s pines? Well when he goes back to the future something is a little different.
59) So now that Lorraine and George are happily married and George pursued his writing career, they family is like upper middle class (I don’t think they’re upper class). Crisping Glover did not like the fact that the films ending directly tied together money and happiness.
60) This film’s iconic ending was originally NOT meant to set up a sequel, but instead just tell the audience that the adventure kept going. Of course Robert Zemeckis and writing partner Bob Gale would return and finish what ended up being a trilogy in 1989 and 1990. But until then we have this perfect finishing line.
If my love for Back to the Future isn’t clear after the sixty notes you just read, let me reiterate: I freaking love this film. I love everything about it. I love the acting, the story, the direction, the music, the heart, the humor, the visuals, the themes, I love it all. I can’t imagine it not being my favorite film ever. Everyone needs to watch it as soon as possible. Seriously, everyone.

Starts Out Awkward But Hey, That's Love Right?
Another Voltron fic (I know I've been writing a lot of Voltron I'm sORRY), this time with Hunk! The same OC (Anita) will be used (wait she's my voltron OC ofc) as well. Also college aus make me weak and Hunk being a cliché barista does too.
[Most of the italics state flashbacks]
The first time it was awkward:
The knock at Hunk and Lance's dorm room door caused both boys to look up from their beds. Lance, too lazy to get up and walk the few feet, yelled for whoever it was to come in. The door swung open and revealed Lance's friend, Anita, holding a blanket and pillow. "Yo Lance, Hunk, mind if I crash here tonight?" she asked. Lance raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong with your room? Got an bug infestation again?"
"No, thank god," Anita replied, walking inside the room and setting her things down on a large beanbag, then plopping down on it, "but I wish that were the case. Kaya and her boyfriend finally did the deed and I'm about to lose my shit over it. I put up with it the first time, but these paper-thin walls don't muffle them fucking like horny animals. I'm pretty sure they're sex addicts now."
Lance laughed at that. "So that's why Pidge always went to her brother's dorm," he said to himself. "Fine. Stay as long as you need."
Hunk, who was mostly listening in, chimed in once he heard that. "Wait, Lance hold on. Does our RA even allow that?"
"Hunk, Shiro's our RA. I'm sure Anita staying here for one night won't kill him. Besides, Anita's cool!" Lance turned to Anita. "You think you can show me your sketchbook this time?" Anita let out a loud 'HA!'. "Uh, I think the fuck not, McClain."
"Oh, come on! Lira gets to see it! Is this some inner circle you have?" Anita rolled her eyes. "No, we just take the same major."
"Is this a secret sketchbook or something?" Hunk asked the raven-haired girl. Anita shook her head. "No, just one that I keep to myself since somebody dropped my last one in a puddle."
Lance gasped dramatically. "Your accusations wound me! Besides,that was an accident! And there was no damage!"
"Yeah, you're lucky there was no damage or else I would've kicked your ass so hard you astral projected into space! I may be 5'4 but your always in for a beat down!"
Hunk laughed as Lance inched away from the short, but threatening, girl.
Hunk didn't know Anita as well as Lance did at the time, but once that one night turned into more---at least one or two a week---he started to learn more about her. She was majoring in art, she has three siblings, an older sister and a half younger brother and sister who are twins, the fact that she and her older sister are half Venezuelan while her little siblings are full, and she works at a tattoo parlor. Anita was good company to have, too. She was funny, and her sarcasm and sass proved so.
At the same time, Anita had also learned about Hunk as well. His major was engineering, and he also had a talent for cooking and baking. Through the course of the few weeks, Hunk had lectured her about things he did in his engineering class, and although Anita had little to no knowledge of this field, she was always listening closely with interest to what she was being told. She also discovered that Hunk worked part-time at one of the on-campus cafes.
"I'm pretty sure that it's the only one with proper Wi-Fi," he says, "because it's always packed with people and their electronics."
Hunk had also been friends with Lance since they were kids, which was longer than Anita had known him, being that she met him when she transferred to his high school sophomore year.
As the two of them grew to know each other better, Lance teased them for being so close. He jokingly called them a couple, to which Hunk retorted, "Hey, we don't do this to you when you're around Keith." Anita's reaction was a loud laugh as Lance almost choked on air. She turned to Hunk. "Oh my god, you've seen it, too!? 'Oooooh, Keith!'" she mocked, putting on her best Lance impression. "'Keith is sooo cool with his smarts, pretty eyes, and nice hair! But alas I, Lance McClain, am so oblivious to my feelings that I cover them with shitty flirting and insults whenever I'm around that mullet head!' Like that?"
"Exactly like that," Hunk replied, giving Anita a down-low high five. Lance felt his ears and cheeks heat up. "I do not sound like that!"
"Yes, you do," Hunk and Anita said simultaneously. "And don't even try to hide that you have a man-crush on Keith," Anita continued, "especially if you have friends like us."
Lance huffed and grumbled something that Hunk and Anita couldn't hear, something along the lines of 'and his mullet's stupid'. Anita then looked at the time on her phone. "Shit!" she exclaimed. "I'm gonna be late for work! I'll see you guys later!"
Anita waved to the boys as she ran off.
And strangely, Hunk felt sad to see her go.
