Syd, Carmy, + Anhedonia
(and some back of the house season 4 news below)
Anhedonia- the inability to experience pleasure from activities usually found enjoyable.
What's frustrating and relatable about Carmy is his experience with anhedonia. He knows he should have pleasurable experiences, and he has an inkling of what it could be, but his self-sabotaging and his regression block any sense of joy.
One of the signs of character development is when Carmy experiences longer bouts of pleasure. A smile that lasts, a laugh that comes straight from the gut. That joy channel needs to open up! What's funny is even though he doesn't know what he's feeling most of the time, he knows he does not like striving for outside achievements like Michelin stars, and the show hints that the only time he enjoys it is working with Sydney. It's listening to her stories and jokes, that shows the viewers his contentment and open expressions. Hopefully, in season 3, Carmy will learn how joy is within. The question I ask through watching Carmy's struggles is whether anhedonia is from nature or nurture? Perhaps both.
Carmy told us he'd let Richie know what's fun and enjoyable for him, so we had better get that answer. Because there are some hints on what or who could help him find happiness from within.
Another hope I have for season 3 is seeing Sydney and why she experiences anhedonia. Season 2 Episode 2 hints that Sydney may experience the same thing. Season 2, Episode 10 answers that question when she only has a few seconds of the joyful moment of getting her father's approval and utter dread for the future. Hopefully, they will give us answers about Sydney's pursuit of achievements over pleasure.
Give us season 3!! I'm ready!
BTW, some BTS news:
They'll finish filming season 4 around June 15th. It's all i know for sure. So I'm guessing they're editing season 3 now.

Columbo and the Knight (1984)
put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.
Autism W!
#columbo#knight rider#art#michael knight#kitt#comic#highlight reel#crossover#telebeast#there are two small easter eggs here. can you find them. they were somehow not Entirely lost when i resized these for the public#this is what i mean when i say I Draw And It's Everyone Else's Problem. look at my INCREDIBLY niche crossover comic boy#if the knight rider fandom has like 12 people in it. how many of y'all have seen columbo#this comic is for like 4 people and me and phoenix are already two of them#niche is my specialty lets be real. weird niche obscure shit and ships nobody's paid attention to yet#not to suggest this is ship art. columbo has his wife and michael has his car lmfao#stylizing real people is EXTREMELY hard btw sorry for when they get off model. its partly a 'better imperfect than never finished' situatio#cant tell you how much i redrew some of these panels. weeps#this took me 2 weeks but i think i thumbnailed it all in may and the ideas been rollin around in my head since march#is anybody good at editing. please edit michael and columbo into an image together like its a screenshot. NOT generated. edited.#it would be so cool#ive drawn columbo a lot but i haven't drawn a lot of michaels. i was learning things about his outfit AS I WAS DOING THE DAMN#COLORS ON THIS. all the lines done. it was too late to change anything. i did all the lines and colored page by page#i realized my mistakes on like page 3. 1 and 2 were already done. it was Too Late.#imagine it though. them working a case together. switching between the more serious tone of columbo vs the goofier#action antics of michael and kitt. columbo being so impressed by Modern Technology. there's more i could say but phoenix may write#more of this crossover and i don't want to spoil it :'3#there's opportunity here though i swear. there's gold to be dug.#i like how kitt gets shading but columbo's junker peugeot doesn't. kitt looked wrong without any. columbo's car is matte and dirty#i also applied effects to this to make it look a little film-grainy and VHS like. some CRT TV vibes#the only question left is. did they put knight rider into columbo; or columbo into knight rider 🤔

CONTROL YOURSELF
#the substance#my art#your body as consumption vs consumption as your body and so on#still thinking a lot about this film. boy does it manage to nail the angle of simmering self hatred#but the line ‘is it getting harder to remember you deserve to exist’ has stuck with me. its sad but its also very resonant#and its an important reminder. there is no dissociative self you’re hurting. there is only you#the substance 2024#demi moore#margaret qualley

people seriously pretending EEAAO is overrated suddenly bc it swept awards? it swept awards largely because it is very very very good. I cried like someone who's just had a religious revelation BOTH times I watched it bc it touched something raw and real and beautiful but it was also just very, very funny. everyone's performance kills and the concept is creative and interesting and doesn't distract from the emotional core. you guys are just contrarian.
#red said#also there are posts and tweets like THIS IS JUST FOR MCU FANS#like please go on demonstrating how you've adopted 'mcu fan' as a shorthand for 'person who likes films i don't'#or 'person who likes films that are popular'#because the defining features of mcu films are that they're high budget irony poisoned derivative works#targeted at a broad audience so aiming to be accessible and inoffensive#and it really seems. like 'accessible' is the part of that you object to#bc EEAAO is a highly original A24 indie film with a 14.5m budget which is NOTHING#it's made mostly with practical effects and sets#and most importantly it's beautifully painfully earnest. it's never trying to shy away or go Hey Look How Silly This Is 😏#everything is driven by its earnest desire to talk about specific themes#i think the people comparing it negatively to mcu films are stuck on the fact that it's about a multiverse and it's got jokes#and colourful action scenes#but they miss that the referential jokes (like racacoonie) and setpieces aren't the point of the film

Given that you're the de facto person who comes to mind when the Odyssey is mentioned...thought you should know Christopher Nolan is doing an adaptation
I'm just kind of giggling about it to be honest. Like Nolan is great I'm sure, I've heard lots about his movies. But the idea of Tom Holland possibly being like Telemachus or something (god forbid Odysseus) is so funny. Who's playing Odysseus here? Matt Damon? Robert Pattinson?? I think Pattinson should be able to do whatever he wants
#wolfy tedtalks#im like apprehensive of it but theres little they can really do about anything#the odyssey scene at the moment is Saturated with adaptions so its unlikely itll make too much of an impact#but i dont run in those circles (film) so i may be wrong#i hope tom holland is elpenor#my biggest wish is all the big names are random side characters that get killed off#i hope pattinson is either polyphemus or a random suitor

After seeing that shitty frenchamerican movie about mexicans without mexicans in the main cast winning so many awards im glad Brazil winned this! I dont even care about oscar, this is HUGE!!!!
"I'm still here" isnt just a random film. It is about the military dictatorship, which on the contrary of countries like Argentina and Chile, Brazil didnt punished most part of the people that did and colaborated for all the deaths, crimes and opressions, and many families still and probably wont ever know where their family members were "buried/disposed".
And not only historic value and resistance against military coups (which are a constant threat with the rise of extreme right in Brazilian politics and military), this is a win for the lack of support and acknowledgement brazilian cinema has, by our own government and by gringos, that keep on pretending the world is just hollywood and some few european countries
My position is that gringo awards arent the reason we make films. But it does help a lot. It attracts investment, international film companies, something continents like latin america doesnt have compared to japan, korea, china, india and european countries own independent film and shows productions, so much they even have prestigious relevant cinema and tv show awards season.
#I'm still here#Fernanda torres#Ainda estou aqui#Golden globes#golden globes 2025#Awards season#Brazil#Brasil#Brblr#Brazilian cinema#Wrote this shaking so probably has many grammar mistakes#Cinema#Films#I havent watched emilia perez still i will finish my oscar watchlist until march but its reputation isnt great#with the directors saying mexican actors werent good enough for their film and they didnt research nothing about mexican culture politics

Love that Oppenheimer is a deeply disturbing horror movie about a man forced to accept that he is, in a person, the representative manifestation of mankind’s evil in committing one of the greatest horrors of human history - LITERALLY acting as the modern Prometheus, tormented by his sins for the remainder of time. Knowing that he will never be pitied and his actions will forever be utterly unforgivable because the blood of genocide and the potential of total human annihilation will eternally drip from his hands.
But also the simultaneous indictment by the film that to blame a single person for the Manhattan Project is to refuse to accept your own capacity for great evil if the ends ever seem to justify the means, and the culpability of every member of a species that lets itself create something so unspeakably terrible.
Hate that twitter’s take on such a nuanced and brilliantly handled examination of those issues is “movie bad because protagonist not evil enough.”
#what’s that quote about the problem with othering the enemy in media is that we can no longer see our own reflection in their eyes#oppenheimer’s motivations WERE sympathetic that’s the POINT#we SHOULD feel uncomfortable with our sympathy for him - the film goes out of its way to make us feel uncomfortable about it#we should be uncomfortable with the fact that we might have made the same decisions as him in his place#yes he’s evil but his evilness represents the evil that we might all accept in ourselves#twitter simply cannot handle nuanced takes on things ig (tumblr does though - the posts on here have been surprisingly excellent)#oppenheimer#(tldr - look if you walk out of Oppenheimer thinking it somehow celebrates the man then you may need to retake 9th grade Literature srry)#films

It will forever be hilarious to me that Disney wanted so fucking bad to make a Wicked movie — but couldn't get the rights from Universal — that they literally spent billions upon billions of dollars making SEVEN different films (and a whole season of television; not even including their sequels and spinoffs) more than one of which they even got Idina and Kristen to be in based on the stripped-down premise of "what if the Stock Female Antagonist™ was secretly the Misunderstood Angsty Girlboss Heroine™ all along?" (because Disney execs don't actually care about Wicked, they just saw Green, said "hey! if we can't get the real thing, why not use Our Own (and/or Public Domain) characters?" and simply followed the Marketing Department Road all the way to the bank).
Less funny is the fact they were so successful at it — regardless of the merits (or lack thereof) of any of those projects — that it ended up getting the production of the actual Wicked movie delayed by more than a decade (because it would ironically have looked like a copycat and probably faded into the background if it had come out back when Disney was pumping out knockoffs every fucking year).
#seriously though#wicked lived in bob iger's head rent free#like its insane the lengths they went to just to ride its coat tails#they made so much content that nobody thinks of them as brazen attempts to emulate wicked anymore#frozen / into the woods / oz the great and powerful / maleficent / cruella / descendants / once upon a time / etc.#and this isnt even speculation#the production teams have been open about this from the beginning#disney couldn't acquire wicked so they just used its keywords as a template for mass producing “original” projects#some of which went on to become among the most successful films ever made#like they really said “okay what if we just got idina menzel and hired a Broadway composer to give her a Defying Gravity” AND IT WORKED#wicked#wicked movie#disney#gelphie#elphaba x glinda#elphaba thropp#glinda upland#glinda x elphaba#elphaba#glinda#wizard of oz#the wizard of oz
