some of my favourite vids

lirazel expressed interest in a rec list of some of my favourite vids and I am very suggestible when it comes to rec lists so here you go! :D Unfortunately a few of the older vids that I remember fondly are no longer available online for me to share with you (the batman vid set to johnny cash's cover of hurt! the highlander vid about methos/lord byron! and more!), but there are still plenty of excellent vids up and about, and new ones worth watching keep being made!

Yes this rec list is 22 vids long, shush, I couldn't cut any of these out. I just got so emotional in the process of making this rec list at how wonderful an artform the fanvid is! It can do so many different things! It can be so powerful in such a brief space of time!

I've ordered the list below alphabetically by fandom. I go through a lot of different fandoms here!

And it was so fun too to work on practicing my skills at describing a vid and explaining what's good about it; I have many years of practice at talking about written narratives, but interpreting and talking about visual media is still a skillset that I'm not instinctively good at and don't have as much experience with. But I think I did pretty good with these vids. I hope you enjoy them!

(put behind a readmore to keep this post from being overwhelmingly long on your dash!)

1. Problem, by talitha78 Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Bucky/Steve Look I may be totally burnt out on the MCU at this point but damn did CA:TWS have some good fanworks. This is a vid that is gleefully and wholeheartedly throwing itself into depicting Bucky through the lens of of this natalia kills song with a straight face. I still sometimes find myself singing "girl is a problem" to myself about things, because of this vid.

2. All In Together, by odessie The Great British Bake-Off, ensemble This vid encapsulates the spirit of the show (…at least, the show when it was a BBC show, before it moved to Channel 4), which is about everybody being weird, dedicated, enthusiastic, imperfect, and all in it together despite it being ostensibly a competition. "Celebrate your oddities, your art, your own insanity." YEAH. It's so cheering!

3. All We Got, by anoel The Great Gatsby, Daisy/Gatsby One of those where I've read the book but not seen the adaptation, but I feel like watching this vid gives me everything I need from seeing an adaptation of the story! Sharply edited use of the beautiful visuals; really creates the necessary feeling of high energy glitz papering over emptiness, which the book honestly doesn't do a good enough job at lol.

4. Show Me Your Teeth, by Dogstar Hieronymous Bosch's artwork, all of Bosch's weird little guys It's strange, a bit surreal, energetic. My immediate reaction when I first saw this vid was "wtf in the best way." I'm so impressed with how the vidder could make such a compelling vid out of static artwork!

5. God's Gonna Cut You Down, by sholio Highlander, Methos & Cassandra & the horsemen There were so many excellent highlander fanvids back in the day but this is one of the ones that has really stuck with me, with its perfect encapsulation of the complexities of the relationships in the "Comes a Horseman" and "Revelations 6:8" pair of episodes, paired with exactly the right song.

6. In Which Sophie Expresses Her Feelings In The Absence Of Weedkiller, by ryfkah Howl's Moving Castle, Howl/Sophie The vidder took on the challenge of using the movie's footage to make a vid about the book's version of the story, and did an incredible job! I adore this vid and how perfectly it captures Sophie and Howl and their relationship.

7. A Tune Like the End of the World, by frith_in_thorns Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, John Childermass Although I haven't seen the tv show, I have read the book it's based on a LOT, so I can more or less figure out which character is who in the visuals from context, lol. I love how good this vid is at getting the atmosphere of the story right; the atmosphere is such an important part of it!

8. Work This Body, by CherryIce Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, ensemble Just really encapsulates the sense of joy and fun that the movie is all about! I don't know what else to say about it, other than that I have rewatched this vid a ridiculous number of times and it keeps being fun. (Unfortunately the streaming version is no longer available, but it's still up for download!)

9. Let's Go (Young Men Dead), by sweetestdrain Lawrence of Arabia, Lawrence The vid that got me to finally watch the movie, and discover how the movie, despite the various critiques it's worthwhile to make of it, is a really brilliant work of art. And the vid, too, is a brilliant work of art! SO many feelings. It's got the vibes just right, of this enormous, larger-than-life story and the relentless grinding-down of everyone involved, the inevitable despairing end to everything. The way it uses juxtaposition and empty spaces! I get emotional rewatching the vid even now, 8 years after watching the movie.

10. Parachute, by thingswithwings Leverage, Eliot/Hardison/Parker I may not have ever seen the show but I've read enough fanfic to be fully on board for this ot3, and this vid depicts them in the BEST way, the way they love and trust and like and rely on each other, and the joy they have in each other! And it does a beautiful job of highlighting each of the three sides of the triangle as well as the three of them all together, too.

11. Under Pressure, by violace The Martian, ensemble It's a vid about the way so many people come together to save Mark Watney: working together, hoping together, caring together, celebrating together. Still able to touch my cynical little heart in these days of looking at the world around me in despair. Humans WANT to help each other!

12. Landsailor, by raven multifandom, ensembles The vidder describes this vid as an "ode to infrastructure" and that's like. what it is! It's about people coming together to do the hard work of building something bigger than any one of them, and it's so joyful and inspiring, tbh! I am familiar with very few of the fandoms it includes but you don't need to know them to get the gist, to follow the story being told.

13. Oh No!!! by findmeinthealps Nirvana in Fire, Prince Yu Prince Yu has a very bad time in Nirvana in Fire and I love to see it, beautifully framed from his point of view in this vid. Yes I grinned all the way through it. Sorry Prince Yu!! (not sorry.)

14. At Last, by eruthros Salt Fat Acid Heat, Samin Nosrat/food The canon is a delightful 4-episode cooking show. This vid of it is set to the most schmaltzy of old-school love songs, and it is about how much JOY both good food and good friends bring, featuring many loving shots of food plus Samin Nosrat's expressive face, and I just melt into feelings.

15. Soccer Practice, by bironic Stargate: SGA, John/Ronon A silly, delightful vid about sexual innuendo between two bros. Serious and emotional fanvids are so good but sometimes it's great to just lol.

16. Tik Tok, by MissSheenie Star Trek: TOS, ensemble It's a classic for a reason. How could I not include it? As I recall, even Kesha agrees that this vid understands her song.

17. dirty work, by voordeel-ts Star Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi This vidder is one of the only ones I've seen who can include pieces of the original audio into a vid in a way that actually works for me, the audio incorporated into the music in rhythm so that it all feels of one piece. Their vids are always fast and stylish, and this one is no exception, as it takes a look at Obi-Wan and his use of violence.

18. Start a War, by ifshehadwings (sophie_448) The Untamed, Nie Huaisang and Jin Guangyao Nie Huaisang and Jin Guangyao do a lot of their worst stuff behind the scenes, out of the view of the camera, and this vid does an amazing job of bringing that forward and making it legible, focusing on the horrible things each of them do in the name of fulfilling their goals. This is also an excellent example of a vid that uses a slow song and relatively slow cuts and yet never loses its intensity and forward momentum. Hats off!

19. a love that won't sit still, by Aria The Untamed, Lan Wangji/Wei Wuxian Just the perfect vid of wangxian from Lan Wangji's perspective? holy shit. What DO you do with a love that won't sit still or do what it's told?! And I love the way it incorporates the pain and difficulties of Wei Wuxian's death and the years without him, leading into that last quieter gentler repeat of the chorus that slowly builds back up again.

20. Lose My Breath, by deirdre_c White Nights, Kolya/Ray Sooooo I've never actually seen White Nights BUT. This vid is such a beautiful encapsulation of a relationship between two men being told through the medium of dance. And the way all the dancing and other physicality in the video is made to feel like it belongs with the vid's song is just so seamless! The way the whole thing just feels so grounded in their bodies and the way that the two of them play off each other! I could watch it forever.

21. Such A Loser, by sandalwoodbox Yuri!!! On Ice, ensemble The show made me care so much about all the skaters, and want all of them to win, which of course is impossible. But this vid uses a joke song from a parody music duo to somehow perfectly encapsulate the way that all the characters' striving is worth celebrating, whether they win or not. Super heartwarming!

22. Never Look Away, by helcinda Yuri on Ice, Viktor/Yuuri Wow, the experience of watching this ship vid is just me making a heart-eyes face at my computer screen the whole time. Highly recommend the experience!

DNP Rewatch: Why I HATE Spoilers!

Date video was published: 08/03/2015 (X)

DNP Main Channel Rewatch: 276

There was a couple of weeks between any videos again, but DNP were pretty busy at the end of July. I have to mention July 20 when they...uh...posted about a night out for some reason (1, 2, 3)?

And then they were in California for VidCon from July 23 to July 30. Phil had pancakes of course; GloZell twerked on Dan; Phil got a slightly creepy compliment from room service; they did a meet-and-greet; went to LA after VidCon was over; filmed for YouTubers React; saw a Kanye film at an art museum; and played ping pong, apparently.

So Dan filmed this video after they got back. And Phil tweeted about this one too!

0:00 - the plushie from the Japan trip on his desk!

0:10 - I wonder if it was Phil. He is wearing Phil’s glasses and a bright shirt...but also I feel like at this point he might have just said it was Phil. 😂 And they watch most TV shows together usually, it seems.

0:23 - look of absolute betrayal and the dramatic sound effect is great

0:34 - Dan has very strong feelings on this. I sometimes don’t mind spoilers because it can be fun to see how things unfold and build up to the *spoiler*, or how the edit hints at it, and I tend to catch more of that if I know what’s coming. Although I do generally try to avoid them.

0:43 - and maybe there’s the difference...I don’t think I really watch things for the emotional impact

0:53 - “a dog that was wearing a human suit” ...what

1:12 - okay, that I agree with. Spoilers in trending topics are the worst.

1:29 - wtf BBC. That seems like a poor decision on someone’s part.

1:35 - lol at him throwing his phone because he was gesticulating too much

1:50 - I hate it when trailers have literally every joke from the entire movie. why.

1:56 - I would love to know if he has actually plugged his ears in a cinema, lol

2:11 - and not going on the internet is a big deal for Dan

2:17 - I spy polaroids on the mantle. 🥺 And his own tumblr open on his laptop.

2:20 - his is being very careless with his phone in this 😨. Lol at the annotation about it.

2:35 - yeah, that’s not really a spoiler

2:50 - “with a mini fridge” ...of course snacks are priority one for him

3:06 - well I know where this is going

3:12 - oh, lonely Dan 🙁

3:39 - it really was the biggest spoiler. I read the book in one day so I didn’t have it spoiled for me, but I remember the insanity of it all on the internet and everything

3:55 - the short tie look. And just announcing it to the entire class, wow.

4:05 - so many dramatic zoom-ins in this one

4:28 - yeah if you intentionally spoil something that’s just mean

4:48 - “I will cut you out of my life” that is a very intense reaction to spoilers

4:56 - I do not know what he’s talking about. I probably did at the time

5:30 - lol at the censored ending

This video is very “dramatic Dan,” lol. I like it!

So I have been thinking a lot about Bad Art Friends, and why it evokes SO many feelings in people on both sides.

And I think it's because we have all BEEN both sides of it. And this isn't saying everyone has a nasty little private chat where we bash peers all day. But we've all vented, and wondered if we got too mean. Or snorted at a joke that, a few minutes later, sank in and was more mean than it was funny. And most of us wouldn't have the audacity to call a friend and grill them about Facebook activity...lbr, we don't have the audacity to call anyone. But we've all posted something, and felt emotions it didn't get the response we wanted. Maybe sometimes even so much we wanted to point to someone and go "Hey, WTF???" I don't think Bad Art Friends hit so hard because of the hot juicy goss, because really...it's not that juicy of gossip. But it's gossip that we all can feel an echo of the emotions at play, even if we don't agree with the actions of the parties involved.

Why do Tumblr users think every show need to be specifically made for them down to like...episode counts per season

Like you'll were in the golden age of TV AND a pandemic. There's more good TV than you ever can (and defiently ever should) watch.

Stop being mad preference /everything/ isn't personally made to your prefrence. Go enjoy the MANY things that or.

Or, Gosford, enjoy something that pushes outside your comfort box.

But srsly, it's find to only want media that comforts and conforms to your every need just stop assuming what YOU need is what everyone needs.

With April Fool's day coming up I would like to share my prank rule:

If it cannot be fixed in less that 5 second if it's goes sideways, INCLUDING emotionally, it's a bad prank.

(and no, "fake" life destroying news cannot be made better in 5 seconds)

So I have this library anime art class that is pretty much the same group of cool, nerdy teen kids.

For some reason, JFK came up and they wanted to know why he was important, and I gave them the best explination I, a 34 year old, can.

Which mentioned that a lot of people connected to the idea of him being the savior of all things precisely because he never had to fulfill that concept, so he will always be a possibility, and many obsess over the idea he was THE possibility, but because he never was given the chance they can project that on to him and never be proven wrong.

(We discussed a lot more like WHY he had that effect but anyway)

While I was gone for a week they all decided a "JFK thing" is when everyone assumed something would have been great despite evidence because it'll never actually fulfill fulfill promise anyway.

Which I learned while telling one of them about Firefly to which she replied "Oh so it's like a JFK thing."

I think part of my issue with the movie version of Howl's Moving Castle focusing so much on Sophie being plain looking is that it deeply diminishes the point in the book that we don't see how good we are not because of ourselves, but because of how much time we compare ourselves to other. If you have not read the book (you should), in their world there is EXPLICITLY a rule that, because they are in a fairytale land, the younger sibling always has the best, most exciting life. When Sophie gets her siblings, she pretty much gives up on having a cool life due to that rule, not because she's too plain and boring. Sophie's issue in the book don't come from her not feeling like she's enough, they come from her comparing herself to her sisters. The growth isn't external, it's not Howl seeing her as beautiful (and, which also gets scrimped on in the movie, POWERFUL) it's her realizing that just because others are better than her doesn't mean she has nothing to offer and should just give up and settle. And I think that's really important. We can't all be waiting to be the VERY BEST or give up. Those aren't the only choices. There will always be someone more beautiful, more talented, more rich, more magical, whatever. That doesn't mean we can't have amazing wonderful adventures with hot wizards just because, say, our sisters are having MORE amazing MORE wonderful adventures with BETTER wizards. Our adventure is also totally worth while even if we're not the BEST.

I honestly thought that person was Ty, but... Are you in love? No. What will you do together? Hang out and enjoy each other’s company doing things we like to do.  Your ideal date: It doesn’t need to be fancy, I’m not that kind of gal. I’m into the chill stuff.

Chrome. What room are you in right now? My bedroom. Are you excited for anything this month? 1.) I get my tattoo on the 19th, and 2.) I start TMS next Wednesday. What language course did you take in school, if any? I barely survived one semester of Latin, then I did all four available German courses. What language would you most like to learn? I'd love to improve my German. What would you like to get a degree in? Photography. What book are you reading, what genre is it and do you like it so far? Wings of Fire: The Brightest Night. It's young adult fantasy, I think. Did you ever sometimes flip through your text books even when you didn’t need to? Yeah, mainly to just look at pictures because I was that bored in class, haha. What types of magazines do you read? None. Would you prefer to read a book, watch a movie or TV show, or play a video game? Play a video game. What’s your current relationship like with the person you lost your virginity to and do you wish it was different? We don't have any relationship anymore. I don't regret losing it to him, if that's what you're asking. If you mean our relationship stance, it'd be nice to still be in touch with him, but I know it wouldn't be healthy for me. Have you ever felt responsible for someone’s death? Pets, yes. No humans. What was the last book you recommended to someone? Idk. What’s the most difficult thing you and your current or last significant other have gone through? Distance was very hard. What’s your best memory with your ex? I'm going to assume this refers to "the ex." In which case, we were "play arguing," and I came storming into the kitchen after him to make a point, and I slid mid-sentence, and he caught me. We just held each other laughing our asses off. It's the simple things, man. Who was the last person that asked to hang out with you and what’s the story of how you met that person? Summer. My little sister and her were in pre-k together and became friends, but I gradually became closer to her than Nicole did when we were teens. Has anyone ever asked you out and you turned them down? Yes. Is there something you generally always ask for help with? Yeah. Like recently I've been having apples and peanut butter a lot, and I ask my mom to cut the apple because I'm terrified of knives. Do you feel comfortable telling people how much you weigh? NOPE. Have you looked at any old photos of yourself lately? No. In a relationship, have you ever been on and off with your partner? No. Do you consider cooking to be an art? Yes. Are you a fast or slow reader? I'd say I read at a moderate pace. Does it take a lot to gross you out? It depends on what it is, but I am actually more squeamish than I used to be.

Tag Game

Tag Game

I was tagged by both @amandagaelic and @waitingforthestarstofall

1. What was the last movie you watched in theaters? I think...either Little Women or Knives Out (for the second time). 

2. What’s your favorite game to play? One that I call Murder Mansion, but I think is actually called Betrayal at House on the Hill or one called Bang! - mostly because it was the most hilarious introduction to a game I have ever had where I got to play a trigger happy unlimited round packing Sheriff who everyone was trying to kill and my besties from the dawn of time were in fact my loyal deputies. 

3. Chocolate or vanilla? Vanilla, if I must only pick between those two.

4. What’s the last show you binge-watched? Yellowstone or Locke & Key

5. Do you have any pets? Oh dear. Yes. Three cats, two horses, and three dogs (though technically I might own a third horse, who knows at this point?).  

6. What’s your favorite fairy tale? Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. 

7. Who’s your favorite superhero? Batman - not the one that they keep portraying as an abusive asshole like Howard Stark, but the one who legit went to court to keep Jason Todd as his son and dipped out from being Batman and Bruce Wayne social obligations when Jason needed him and collected orphans and tried to make sure they wouldn’t turn out like him. 

8. Who’s you favorite Disney Princess? Pocahontas or Tiger Lily probably, though I was never really a fan of the princess movies. I liked Treasure Planet and Great Mouse Detective where there were zero romantic subplots or princesses. 

9. Where’s the first place you’re going to go after the social distancing is over? ALASKA. BECAUSE THAT WAS THE PLAN BEFORE THIS HYAH! SHITSHOW! 

10. Cookies or Cake? Cookies. I am weirdly not a fan of cake. 

+ 10 questions from @teenwolf-theoriginals:

1. which show could you watch over and over? Lucifer, Daredevil (and add-ons), Republic of Doyle

2. favourite song lyric? " I choose my eyes wide open/And my heart half-broken every time/Over the gilded golden shackle/And the reassuring sentimental lie.”

3. favourite season of your favourite tv show? Lucifer season 4, Daredevil Season 1, and...whatever season ends with Jake Doyle getting kidnapped and locked unconscious in a shipping container bound for Mexico

4. what never fails to make you smile/happy? Cirque De Sewer videos on Facebook (ren fair comedy show with cats and rats and a former ballerina). 

5. how are you doing with all that’s going on in the world (virus, having to do social distancing, etc)? I feel really weird saying this, but the quarantine is working out freakishly well for me. My sister, who hasn’t lived nearby since 2010, came to visit for our mom’s 70th birthday just before the travel ban, so she’s been here for a little over 2 weeks now, which is the most I have seen her in 10 years. We live in a small town on a farm, so I have a lot to keep me busy outdoors without having to go to public outdoor places. My job is 100% capable of being 100% remote, we always buy from the warehouses when we have coupons so we have plenty of food and paper goods, we have puzzles out the wazoo to keep us busy when the weather is bad, we have a huge garden every year so if this keeps up we’ll have all our own food and eleventy billion movies and crochet projects, etc. I’m also a hella hermit normally, so this is not really all that new. Little mad I can’t go help a friend paint their house, but eh. Small price compared to a lot of others.  

6. we all love new music to listen to, name an artist that is underrated/you think people should check out? Janet Devlin. Irish/English folk singer I found on Spotify. 

7. tv show or movie? TV show. I love the level of character development that can happen when given the opportunity. 

8. favourite holiday? Thanksgiving. All the food. And less work than Fourth of July, because July means I get roped into directing the town parade and half a dozen other things because my parents get me to. 

9. a song that describes you? “Psycho” by Ava Max. 

10. describe your tumblr in three words? Themed = for chumps.

+5 questions from @macspaperclips

1. What is your favorite hobby? Crocheting, or writing

2. What is your favorite book? Or/and a really good book you’ve read recently? Six of Crows duology - a heist series that I got sucked into thanks to fan art and then finding out the main male lead can’t stand human touch and I was like SOLD. 

3. What is your favorite Ship that will never happen (Or hasn’t happened yet)? Not a shipper. I hate ships, because inevitably, ship wars ruin everything. And in some cases, really make me question sanity or mental health of some people. Said I didn’t like a female romantic lead, next thing I get is death threats, and I am totally the type to back track a URL, hunt you down in the real world, and brain you with a hammer. It’s not good for my anger management. 

4. If you could spend the day with any living celebrity, who would it be?  Harrison Ford, because it would be on his ranch in Jackson Hole. 

5. The best worst movie you’ve ever seen. A movie that you know objectively is trash but you can’t help but really enjoy it. The new Robin Hood with Taron Edgerton, or the Four Musketeers.

My questions (answer these if you’re tagged, then come up with some questions of your own, and then tag people):

1) What is your MBTI and/or Enneagram Number? MBTI - I had to look this up - INFJ or ENFJ, depending on how you want to interpret that first letter. 

2) What TV episode is your all-time favorite? The Hay Burner on Bonanza, 

3) What does happiness mean to you? Lack of desire

and tagged on because I was in fact tagged by two people @amandagaelicquestions: 

1) If you’re a fic writer, do you reply to every review? And if so, how long do you wait? I have only recently started getting over my weird phobia of responding to reviews (I also am rather new to AO3 and it was a little hard or impossible to do in FFN.net), so some stories in the smaller fandoms like Magnum, I have tried to respond to all of them, and it takes anywhere from a day to a month, but in Lucifer...oh dear. It’s daunting, and I keep freaking out because I haven’t finished the behemoth that is Damnatio despite it being years, so I don’t want to respond back to everyone saying “I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN I AM FINISHING THIS” in between severe writers’ block. 

2) What color Starburst is the best? Of the original? Pink. Of the options of outward packaging? Blue. 

3) Skittles or M&Ms? M&M’s

4) If you were to learn any new language, which one would you choose and why? Bold of you to assume I would learn only one. I am actually taking...four lessons through Duolingo? Irish, Welsh, Spanish, and Hawaiian (Was learning Navajo, but I made it to food and WTF....nope, kicked my ass). 

My questions: 

If you could be anything else, what would you be? 

If you’re a fic writer, what would you guilty pleasure fic idea that you won’t write because you don’t think anyone else would read it?

Is there something you wish you knew more about, and if so, what is it?

tagging: @dragonnan, @rohanrider3, @sofasurf, @buckky, @ariaadagio, @get-whumped, @itsjustdg 

If you’re busy or otherwise not feeling it - as always, feel free not to play. If you weren’t tagged, I also mean you. You can come play too.

Let’s Talk about Subverting Expectations

What happened in ep 8x05 was not a subversion of expectations, it was a fuck you to the art of writing and fans.

I’m a writer and, although I don’t get paid for my work, I’d never pull the shit D&D did and no one should be supporting that shit either.

Words don’t fucking magically appear on the page, that shit is plotted out even if it isn’t in excruciating detail. It takes minutes, hours, days, weeks, and even years for things to finally come together for a book, show, movies, etc. Great work doesn’t happen overnight and you can clearly tell that no love, thought, to attention was given to the storyline for S8 of GOT.

They had two fucking years to get this shit right. They’ve had the ending since the beginning. They had time to adequately plot out all of this shit and have character motivations make sense.

Because when you “subvert expectations”, the details are woven into the plot they just aren’t obvious. They’re inconspicuous, so we leave them alone for other plot points that are saying, “pay attention to me.” That’s why it’s a subversion: the clues WERE there.

Dany going mad/dark isn’t a subversion because 1. they clues were underdeveloped 2. The reason why she went mad isn’t the reason why people think she went mad.

People point to her not reacting to her brother getting killed, burning slave masters, the Tarly’s etc., BUT D&D flat out said that if Missandei and/or Jorah lived, things would’ve went differently. “Oh, those two were just the straws that broke the camels back!!!” 

NO.

Madness is said to be a gene for the Targeryens, but if all of that other shit wasn’t stoking that madness fire within her, yet watching the two people she trusted most LITERALLY DIE FOR HER, it says that her mental break was due to circumstance and NOT genes. 

Dany has been handed so many L’s for being merciful and listening to SHITTY advice and fucking snapped because “fuck this shit.” Fuck it ALL.

“bUT ThaT MAKes her BaD.”

I honestly don’t give a shit and I don’t want to hear shit about, “If she can’t put up with adverse as a Queen, she doesn’t deserve to be Queen.”

We’ve constantly see Dany put off her plans and fucking offer her resources to others who’ve backstabbed her and showed ungratefulness at every time. We want her to keep taking this shit on the chin because we (read: antis) fucking hate her. Tyrion was fucking incompetent for 2-3 seasons straight. Varys betrayed her. Jon betrayed her. Sansa stayed true to the snake she is (regarding Jon). She lost two of the closest people to her and we expect Dany to have the sanity of a saint???

People kept saying Dany would turn on Jon and kill him, but Dany still HASN’t done that shit even tho he HAS betrayed her. And please shut the fuck up about how it was his secret to tell. Why in the fuck would he tell it DURING a fucking war, esp to a sister that fucking LOATHES Dany?

Why???

Jon could’ve WAITED UNTIL AFTER THE WAR.

But, he had to do that shit know, which set off the entire chain of events. Although Dany is responsible for murdering the Red Keep, Jon, Tyrion, Varys, and Sansa all have motherfucking blood on their hands.

ALL OF THEM.

Dany KEPT fucking trying to bargain with them or hold her tongue and listen to them, but since the everyone (including the writers) wanted Dany to go mad so bad we got this shit.

None of their actions or motivations makes sense.

Do y'all know how much TV and shows I watch? Do y'all know how savvy am I about how shit works? I can accurately predict most storylines and characters due to intently focusing on the story, details, tropes, and constant analysis of what I consume. I already knew this shit was coming, but I wanted my expectations subverted so bad even if it didn’t make sense. I wanted to believe that D&D weren’t frauds playing at being great writers (I know, I know, this trend started back in S5).

They relied heavily on telling instead of showing. They relied heavily on having trusted characters express whatever pushed the plot forward even if it didn’t make any sense. They relied on our love for the Starks to sway us into siding against any and everyone who disagree with them or are against them.

I said before that Arya’s character doesn’t make any sense when she’s paired with and defending Sansa and she DOESN’T. Not only was that relationship not earned, it goes against who Arya is--not the relationship, how she behaves in regards to Sansa and her xenophobia.

Also, her character motivation doesn’t make sense when going back to KL’s or how easily she was persuaded to leave. Why didn’t we see any conversations between her and the Hound leading up to that moment???

Sansa doesn’t make any sense. People want to talk how she knows how to play the game well, but here’s how she doesn't: LF and Varys spent over a decade fucking manipulating the court while most were oblivious to what they were doing. They’ve been doing this shit longer than Sansa was alive. No one has ever flat out called out their shit at the beginning of their scheming careers.

Sansa starts her first true case of scheming in the game and Dany immediately knows it was her. “But, Sansa won!!!” I mean, yeah, due to shitty writing.

Just about every major and cunning player is never blatantly called out like this even if people suspect them. Why? Because you aren’t playing if others know your move and that's how you get dead.

By Sansa being openly antagonistic to Dany, she showed her hand and that’s why I’ve always said it was fucking stupid for Sansa to be openly hostile to her. Sansa Stans thought I wanted them to be friends or for Sansa to bend the knee, which is moot since Jon did it, and it’s not that. Fucking politically savvy people don’t do the dumb shit Sansa did. That’s how Dany IMMEDIATELY knew how Varys found out and WHO the information leaked from. But, since Sansa has plot armor and the writers are up her ass, she won’t reaped the consequences for being shitty at the game.

(and Varys would NEVER make such a mistake, but I’m glad he’s dead)

And Tyrion. This motherfucker has been useless for HOW long???

Are people forgetting how much BAD advice he’s given Dany or that he believed he could appeal to Cersei’s humanity, which got people dead. Cersei ain’t never give a fuck about him and that’s not tea, that’s all facts (no chaser). Tyrion has done so much fuck shit, I hope he dies as well, but that’s not going to happen. The writer’s love Tyrion too much.

Having Cersei die with Jaime and not by Jaime or anyone else is BAD writing. Nothing in the show or books supports that this would happen. Having Jaime die with Cersei opposed to him believing he needs to kill her is BAD writing. Having Brienne lose her virginity to him is BAD writing. 

And to further prove how shitty the writing is, D&D literally admitted that Arya was only in the episode so viewers would care about the people in KL’s getting seared--THAT’S IT! That whole plot point about Arya wanting to kill Cersei was bullshit, which is obvious as fuck when watching the episode. 

I can take stuff happening that I don’t like happening if it’s written well, but as a lover of shows and books and as a writer, this shit is downright infuriating. None of this shit was properly set up. NONE. 

Writing is a motherfucking discipline and should be treated with respect. I don’t know if D&D are obsessed with “subverting expectations” or shock or whatever the hell that consumes their minds, but THIS is how you destroy the legacy of a show that was must watch TV. This is HOW you show you don’t care for a well loved show, DESPITE HBO saying they’d give you as much time as they needed to tell a story.

I wouldn’t have liked Dany going mad, but if it was told well, I would’ve gotten it. This wasn’t. 

Arya’s character motivations this season, outside of Gendry, doesn’t make any fucking sense.

Sansa doesn’t make sense.

Jon-wtf.

Jaime--all of them.

How are expectations subverted by Dany becoming mad??? 

Look, I don’t give a shit if people like it, I give a shit about bad writing that was poorly set up. 

*barfs*

4, 25, and 28

4. least favorite anime character

UGH does it have to be from an anime I actually like? lmao

I HATE Kirito from SAO. I hate the entirety of SAO tbh, but Kirito takes the fuckin cake my dude. I just usually despise any overpowered character that is absolutely bland in the personality area and yet somehow has every woman and her dog pining after him. Such lazy character design.

From an anime that I actually like though? Uhmmmm that’s super hard because I pretty much like, or at least appreciate the value of, every character in anime I enjoy. let’s just go with those kids who bullied Yamaguchi in that flashback and call it good.

25. anime you would recommend to someone who hates anime

if someone HATES anime, then I won’t talk to them long enough to recommend anything, to be perfectly honest. that’s such a weird thing to hate. anime. an entire medium of storytelling. Imagine hating movies. Not some movies. Not a genre of movies. All movies. How boring you gotta be to hate an entire medium of art? “Oh, I don’t look at pictures. I hate photography.” Like??? Wtf???

For someone who doesn’t watch anime but is open to recommendations though, I would make those recommendations based on that specific person. Some anime that I usually suggest to non anime watchers include: Space Dandy, Samurai Champloo, Usagi Drop(just steer clear of the manga), Trigun, and Kimi no na wa (i know it’s a movie but cmon its so good)

28. most upsetting moment in anime, why

BRUH

all of them. every moment is upsetting

nah but uhm... i would have to say (*spoilers for anyone who doesn’t watch/read One Piece but not really that big of a spoiler because it happened a long ass time ago but hey, just in case*) Ace’s death at Marineford. Listen, I’m no stranger to character death. A lot of my favorite characters die in books, anime, movies, tv. But Ace’s death hit me extra hard. Not because I loved his character or because his death felt pointless or anything like that. It hit harder than other deaths because it was an entire two arcs of Luffy’s desperation ending in failure. The fact that he literally went to hell and back, doing the impossible just to save his brother and then in the end, couldn’t pull it off, just destroyed me. 

But while I was so upset and literally cried for about an hour after I reached that chapter in the manga, I understood and appreciated it for what it did for the plot. 

It singlehandedly raised the stakes. It showed us that even though Luffy has never failed before, even though he continually gets stronger and stronger and always wins... he can lose. It showed us that it was possible for him to fail and that made everything feel so much more... real to me. If he could fail there, even though he tried SO HARD, then that meant that there is a possibility for future failures. My faves aren’t as safe as I once thought. And while that’s absolutely terrifying, it’s also invigorating and adds much needed depth to this typical shounen anime/manga.

WOW okay that answer was needlessly detailed but okay.

thank you for the ask!!
