anyone else have random succession fan red flags. because sometimes i can see One thing from someone and immediately know we are not watching this show in the same way

Things from Lockwood & co because I can part 2:

Episode 3

Lockwood planting a bomb in his stuff as a decoy and hiding one on the premise to use

Lockwood pausing at the top of the staircase. Why did he do that?

I just want it throw this in here, but the lighting in this show is amazing. It’s so dark but everything can be seen really well and I just really appreciate that. It’s dark enough to be spooky but not dark enough that you miss anything. The flashlights and the way things are lit is just really cool to me

The red room scene. It’s so freaky and cool watching the blood drip into the room and the panic of the of them all trying to get the hidden door open to escape and the way the camera angle spin as the blood continues to drip, and the noise it makes and oh It’s just so cool, and as someone who’s always wanted to make a scene like that it’s just cool watching it idk

The chanting of the monks is so creepy and the way their shadows appear and how the chanting gets loud, it just gives me shivers

Lucy slapping George awake then literally crawling over to Lockwood as he calls for her, holding his hand as he comes to, and the way they look at each other (We always talk about how in love Lockwood is by the way he looks at her, but Lucy looks at him just the same (except when he’s being an idiot that is))

“Oh where’s his slap?”

Lockwood and his death wish

Even though he has a death wish he still looks scared when he thinks Fairfax might kill him

Lucy saving Lockwood (and probably all of them) by stepping in and letting Annabel get her revenge

“I’m working with maniacs” (You sure are George)

George stealing the googles (George and his stealing stuff)

Lockwood getting Lucy her fourth grade and George smiling big behind them

“You belong here” (The found family troupe has my heart)

The fact that George is looking out for Lucy because “She’s finally starting to get me” and I love them (he’s so happy about it and it makes me happy)

“Luce?”

This episode was so creepy and cool and I just love it

Episode 4

Lockwood being pissed about being rescued by Kipp’s crew (the scene’s just funny)

“And you just want to watch him… die” (just the way he says it and their faces lmao)

I feel robbed that we didn’t get to see George and Lockwood find and carry Lucy upstairs (it either would have been a cute Locklyle moment or a funny one trying to watch them struggle to figure out how to do it without dropping Lucy lol)

Lockwood being the showman he is and charming the crowd (love him)

The slowly spinning camera transition to them walking to the grave

The buzzing sounds and Lucy’s unease and panic and the loudness of it all

George looking into the mirror

Lucy’s throw

The talking skull

“DEATH IS COMING!”

“Is it talking to you now?” (Same energy as ‘is *insert thing here* in the room with us now?’ yk?)

“You gave her a free pass just because you like the way she looks at you”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about” (Suuuure Locky)

Lockwood pausing at the door (What is in there???)

The bandage scene. It’s probably one of my favourites honestly. How close they are sitting, how awkward Lockwood is about it, the rain on the roof, Lockwood being honest about the fact that we doesn’t want to talk about his past, Lucy understanding that, him helping Lucy with her wound, how she’s looking at him, how gentle he is placing the bandage on her arm…

“You believe me?” “I do. About everything”

How he looks at her, Lucy bringing back up being called an asset, the tears reflecting in her eyes, Lockwood telling her he’ll never make that mistake again, they way his eyes flick to her lips, their hands, they way they just look at each other, Lockwood’s eyes flicking to Lucy’s lips again, how close they are to each other, and then how abruptly they break apart, like they didn’t even realize until that point and the bit of awkwardness that follows. I just love it. All of it

George showing Kipp’s team up by just being better (get it my guy)

Lockwood looking proud of George

Lockwood’s stupid bet with Kipps (That idiot’s ego is too big sometimes)

i need to make more

I'm aorry but the plants fucking what-

[bizarrebazaar13]

what if your doppelgänger wasn’t evil it was just a person. what if your doppelgänger wasn’t trying to replace you it was just trying to learn to be a person and you were the best model it had. what if your doppelgänger looked at you with your eyes and said with your voice that it just wanted to be loved. what then.

writing advice for characters with a missing eye: dear God does losing an eyes function fuck up your neck. Ever since mine crapped out I've been slowly and unconsciously shifting towards holding my head at an angle to put the good eye closer to the center. and human necks. are not meant to accommodate that sorta thing.

I hate how people will look at popular indie artists who had one or two songs go viral on TikTok and start making fun of anybody who listens to them. "Oh you listen to Lemon Demon, Will Wood, Jack Stauber, Glass Animals, and Mother Mother? Tsk, don't you know that is stupid TikTok neurodivergent white transmasc preteen music? It's so mid and bad you should listen to real music–" you are a pit of misery

There's something hilarious about how so much subsequent media has positioned Vampires and Werewolves as, like, binary opposite entities, and then you read Dracula (1897) and realize that wolves are that guy's preferred solution to every problem. You'd say something to Dracula about "ah yes, werewolves, vampires' great eternal enemies," and he'd just be like "you mean my subcontractors?"

I just think everyone should take a moment to consider the question "what is your visual shorthand for cruelty?" and then follow it up with a critical "and who taught you that?"

specific examples include but are not limited to

why is an evil timeline character design disabled? (why do the heroes go through equally punishing battles and never lose an arm, a leg, an eye?)

why are the futuristic scifi terrorists uniformly darker skinned? (why are the heroes so much lighter?)

why is the greedy boss fat? (why are the heroes skinny?)

why is the criminal mastermind heavily scarred? (why is the brooding, traumatized hero unscathed?)

why is the predatory creep a bearded person in a dress and makeup? (why are none of the heroes trans women?)

who taught you that this is how things are?

how long do you plan on repeating it?
