Have you seen the show Medici?

I have! I dislike it and complain about it endlessly because the narrative drama sucks, and it commits a worse crime of being visually boring, it's almost offensive to me how bland it is lmao. the costuming is dogshit too, and I don't mean that in an 'this is historically inaccurate' (it is) but in a 'this is some real party city bullshit.' for a show about one of the most effective visual propaganda builders of the era, it sure doesn't have any aesthetic or thematic literacy!

that said

I've fully watched season one three times now (brunelleschi the love of my liiiiiiiife, and the plague stuff was almost good. close enough to good that I specifically re watch those episodes when I'm thinking about historical plagues) and season two uhhhh like eight or nine times for matteo martari's portrayal of francesco de' pazzi alone.

in a way, it's just bad enough that it cycles back to being interesting because I can see a very clear outline of the show I wish I was watching, and every time I go back to it, I end up writing another 50 pages of a medici family comic script out of sheer frustration. which is. a kind of compliment. sometimes bad shows are just bad, but i medici is a bad show that could've been good.

season 3 committed an unforgivable sin so that season is dead to me.

“Devil’s Parade” main characters redesigned and updated!

The year is 2018. Ayodele is given her third case since she graduated: a vampire who’d been stuck in a crypt for the past 66 years who has to adjust to this modern world and the fact that half his memory is missing due to a misterious spell… Ayodele seeks out old college friend Sofie and her brother Barry to help Shigeru out with their witchcraft.

Things get out of hand. Somehow they prove that gods exist. Shigeru and Barry are doomed lovers who are also extremely goofy. Sofie and Ayodele are not doomed but they are lovers and they are goofy. Theres a tree man who lives on the O’rin property and knows everyone’s business. The Devil is real. Somehow these four keep being wanted by the cops.

i try so hard to be chill and not let things get to me if they arent actually causing harm but people getting the definitions of literary genres wrong makes it so difficult

i want/need volunteers for who would be up to read my original stuff once it’s finished and give me their thoughts? (no beta needed at this time lol no editing right now, just need like that bounce off of others of their thoughts on ‘i got X impression, i thought this character wanted Y, i was so mad at Z’ lol so i can tell if the story gave off the impressions i aimed for or became a new beast, tell the impressions readers get of characters and genre and style)

Fwiw I think Civil War (dir. Alex Garland) is a better thriller that is set in apocalyptic America than Leave The World Behind (dir. Sam Esmail). I love both of these directors' works but LTWB just didn't hit the same way - it felt too surreal and removed from the centre of the political conflict, which was probably part of the point of that film, but it is also to the film's detriment in terms of the horror and pathos it could wring out of that same scenario of war on American soil.
