Top 10 Movies

I was tagged by the lovely @findusinaweek, thank you!!

I will say I am not much of a movie person so this also has taken me a while to put together. I’ve got like...5, so, sorry if that’s against the rules LOL Under “Keep Reading” cause of gifs lol.

Taggings: I don’t want to double tag anyone so I’m going to tag some new faces: @cringy-username-dream-wanderlust, @tashabanes, @cataliinaa, @no-barbarians-here, @bandsandyoutuberswow, @tangentmusings​ and whoever else wants to. As always NO PRESSURE!

1. Greatest Showman

I know of the many historical inaccuracies in this film but I was so captivated the first time I saw it. The music was so good and I loved the story for what it was. Not to mention, it has Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron and I had my phases with both of them (surely you have too?) so it was perf.

2. Moonwalker

If you been around, you know I’ve loved MJ a long time lol if not, now you do. Is this movie that great in reality? Maybe not. Is it nostalgic for me and includes music videos for some of my favorite MJ songs? You’re gotdamn right it does.

3. Hamilton (Live)

I’m counting this because it’s on Disney+ and so yeah it’s a movie now. Again, well aware of the historical inaccuracies and controversies. But, this was so pivotal for me when it came out and helped me get through some really rough stuff cause I could relate to many of the songs. I also was 19 when about it came out, so “only 19 but my mind is older” really hit different!!

4. Little Mermaid (1989)

Okay, we all had a classic Disney movie we loved as a kid, no? This was mine!! 9 year old me loved this film and pretended to be a mermaid all the time! Though, I still can’t swim and perhaps that’s why I loved it so much lol. Also wanted Ariel’s hair and a dude to fall in love with me LOL

5. Bohemian Rhapsody

Again, there are of course some historical/factual inaccuracies but the cast did so, so well. Rami Malek did a FANTASTIC Freddie Mercury and Gwilym Lee looked JUST LIKE Brian May. It was a very moving bio-pic and the ending had me absolutely sobbing in the theater.

Pick one of my five favorite movies!

I was tagged by @friendrat, but the original chain was getting kinda long, so we're doing a fresh post. Not including The Lord of the Rings even though it's my actual favorite because that's going to skew the results waaaaaaay too much.

Tagging @as-dreamers-do, @cat-dragoness, and @o-lei-o-lai-o-lord (and anyone who wants to do this but hasn't been tagged).

Saw someone say musicals were never made to be sad, never meant to be tragic and I'm ????? There has always been a very special kind of sadness in musicals. Some undefined melancholy.

Yoon Phusanu my beloved never disappoints and has indeed hired a gaggle of lawyers to go up against Y.Entertainment.

You can watch his whole press conference (with English subs) here.

It includes highlights such as:

Yoon would like to be fairly compensated because he has to provide for his family. His family are seven cats. He's brought pictures.

He's now officially gone freelance and Y.Ent are no longer allowed to use his name.

Yoon hasn't been paid in a very long time, even though he's tried to negotiate and reach an agreement. He's tired of having to run after his money.

He's "only" owed about 100.000 baht (~2.555€ / 2772$ / £2,192) but Yoon's lawyer states that this is a systematic problem and lots of actors in Series Y (Thai BL) aren't fairly compensated. Several actors have reached out to him personally. He also says that he doesn't put blame on the companies because Series Y is a very competitive field. Still, young actors should be careful about who they work with and stand up for themselves if they aren't treated fairly.

They're showing pictures of Yoon's cats again. Yoon has to provide for them, after all:

Yoon doesn't have acting work lined up right now but he's actively looking for new projects and is in talks to join a new agency.

I'm not sure if this only affects Yoon or the other actors who are owed money by Y.Ent as well but apparently the cut-off date for payment was 11 March. He was offered money after that date but didn't take it because he already knew that he wanted to terminate the contract. Apparently, he had been with Y.Ent for over 4 years and the contract was supposed to be a six year contract (I'm not too sure about this one since the subs are terrible and so is my Thai lmao). Because he's been with them for so long, the whole thing pretty much blindsided him.

Yoon's mother is supportive of him acting in Y Series.

Many other Thai BL actors have talked to Yoon about being treated unfairly and he wants to spread awareness about that.

Apparently, Y.Ent never stated a reason for not paying him. They only told him that he'd be paid at a later date.

Yoon's lawyer says that he has every right to sue but for now he only wants to negotiate. He again urges young actors to thoroughly check who they're working with.

Yoon is asked if this disagreement will cause him problems with other companies down the line but he says that he doesn't believe it will negatively affect him as he's trying to solve the issue peacefully.

Yoon's lawyer again says that actors should read their contracts very carefully. Some contracts don't give the actors any rights but only duties. They might then have to hire a laywer to be able to break contract.

Yoon then says that sometimes he wasn't sent the script before filming and when arrived on set all he'd be given was an old brief that he'd already read. He was then asked (by other crew etc) if he'd practiced his lines which of course he couldn't. This embarrassed him.

The lawyer also adds that there is often a discrepancy between the number of episodes in a series and queues for a shoot. I'm guessing that he means that the actors won't realise that they actually have to work more hours for less money (since compensation seems to be based on episodes rather than hours worked?). This is very difficult to renegotiate and almost no actor in their 20s can afford to settle this in court.

This isn't the first time Yoon has spoken up against the mistreatment of himself and other Thai BL actors in the industry and I'm so glad he has the means to stand up for himself when so many other actors obviously can't.

Fans are so quick to blame bad shows and weird behind-the-scenes stuff on the actors themselves when in reality it's so often due to mismanagement and mistreatment. Imagine not even having a script on shooting day (yes, I'm aware this is common practice in soap entertainment but these are rookie actors without the experience and support that seasoned soap actors have - also in this case it seems to have surprised even the crew on set). No wonder things were awkward in Unforgotten Night. Do you really think actors who don't have a script get to practice and negotiate their intimate scenes together?

And judging by what Tor Atagorn has spoken up about recently (and many other actors have alluded to in the past) this is only the very tip of the iceberg, with young and inexperienced actors deliberately trapped in contracts that they have no way of getting out of on their own.

Yoon's lawyer urged young actors to be more aware of who they're working for in order to better protect themselves. In a similar vein, BL watchers should ideally be more aware of whose shows they're watching and what companies have a shady track record.

If nothing else, do it for the cats! These actors have children they need to provide for, after all!
