Throughout the Batman I was thinking about Bruce Wayne could’ve helped the city through his wealth as well. And I was eager for more battison outside his costume as he saw the corruption around him and maybe that would’ve pushed him to be more involved with philanthropic efforts.
I really wanted the evolution of Bruce Wayne as he sees how much money could help? Maybe that’s just me projecting and hoping billionaires understand how much money can make a difference when put in the right hands but yeah
#overall it was a nice movie#yes I just watched the Batman what about it#leave me alone okay#battison has so much potential#i hope batman 2 focuses more on the Bruce aspect tbh but idk#they’ll prolly just stick to the morals of vigilantism lol#batman#Gotham#dc#dceu#battison#the batman#movies#catwoman#Selina Kyle#Bruce Wayne#alfred pennyworth#batman 2022#the riddler

Bungou Stray Dogs: Dead Apple and how “ability users” (opposite to “normal people”) learning to accept themselves through the acceptance of their own abilities is a queer metaphor of acceptance of own's sexual orientation and gender: an essay by me
#bsd#bungou stray dogs#About: Dead Apple. Watched this a while ago with a friend and it was a lot of fun!!!#If you're reading this: thank you so much for hanging out with me I had such a good time (ㅅ´ ˘ )♡#Next to general considerations: wow they were right that Bungou Stray Dogs movie sure can Bungou Stray Dogs#It's always nice to see the detailed animation and elaborate backgrounds of movies. The animation quality compared to the manga is–#definitely noticeable and it's nice to see. That said... I still like the season 2 art style more? And I'm speaking strictly of art style.#The s2 one looks more soft and smooth while the da one is so much more rough.#The plot is... Very bsd-esque I don't think there's anything to add.#In my opinion Kyouka's arc is the one that turned out best tbh. I really like her narrative development and personal growth in this movie.#I like the complexity of her state of mind. how full of contradiction she is. I especially appreciate the recurring small changes of–#expression that indicate how she thinks differently from Atsushi even if she doesn't voice them. The fight between her cynicism and her–#kind nature. It's all very interesting.#Atsushi's development is interesting too. Although all the open questions about his ability we still have kind of leave me frustrated#I don't feel very strongly about Akutagawa in this movie? I mean‚ he's there. The ss/kk scenes are always great and in character and a joy–#to witness no matter what they do. He just doesn't shine particularly? Or at least personally I dont find the “proving my strength against–#myself” narrative arc to be particularly interesting. Imo it was a lot better flashed out in the da stage play! With the complexity that–#the dialogues with Chuuya added to the character. Dazai attacking him. And especially Aktgw understanding that Rashomon wasn't testing Aktg#but rather only expressing that unstoppable rage that is also Aktgw's own. About that I checked out the play and I really liked it!!#I only watched highlights (aka: ss/kk and chuu/aku scenes) but there's some stuff I really like. I like the conflict between Aktgw and–#Chuuya and how Chuuya messes up with Aktgw at first maliciously and then amiably. It's interesting how Atsushi himself observes that Kyouka#and Akutagawa get along. And especially the sskk almost-handholding and Atsushi saying Akutagawa has a nice profile were cute akjdhbsawhjb#Next. Da really is shipping paradise (╥﹏╥) Sorry but... It is. oda/zai. daz/atsu. ss/kk. s/kk. fuku/mori. chuu/aku. It really has everythin#and the moments are so good!!!! What else. Wish we'd see more of Tsujimura. And Christie. And women in general tbh.#Also‚‚‚‚‚ Atsushi's tiger form in this movie is ATROCIOUS. I've said it before but it's crazy how a franchises that relies so heavily on–#fanservice came up with something this hideous. Man the movie overall was pretty but Atsushi sure wasn't. Firmly stand by the belief–#that only Akutagawa would find that form attractive.#Oh last note. honestly if we're ready to accept a movie where an antidote has effect AFTER the person has effectively died then we really–#can't complain about any kind of insanity the manga brings up#random rambles

Okay I'm desperately trying to find examples of horror film artbooks, or ANY concept art for older low budget horror films. I'm not finding much at all, which does track bc of the nature of these productions but they still would have had production art, that art has to be somewhere. SO if anyone has book recs or blog posts or anything pleaseeee drop them. Rn the best I have is the mars attacks artbook, the return of the living dead art book and some really shoddy production art for house of 1000 corpses I got off a prop site. Long shot too but any kind of concept work for John Water's films would go crazy as well, so far I've only got tangential stuff like the scrapped designs for the Pork stageplay with Divine and the paper doll book that Van smith illustrated (costume designer and stylist for his films and for Divine).
#they do absolutely want nice clean concept work 4 school but too bad for them. I'm obsessed with studying how designs are#conceptualized and presented based on budget like this#like my project is based off John water's films and B horror movies it makes sense to study the production art of low budget films#even the presentation of the art#like the pork designs were released on antique sites first afaik#it's just overall harder to find this kind of rougher production or pre-production art which is a shame

started a brad scenes supercuts drive ✨
will regularly update as i go through more stuff
#brad dourif#ref#starting with the things i think are more in need of cuts (bad movies and/or short screen time)#though i may eventually work through more because it's nice to have for edits anyways#i should add that there are probably some clips that could use content warnings#haven't gone through to try and catalog everything but feel free to ask#or i recommend searching out warnings for the overall movie

#transformers one trailer was certainly something#i'm still making up my mind on it#the faces are certainly an interesting design choice and it's not bad but. yeah. maybe a little uncanny#chris hemsworth.... sigh. it could be worse i guess#the humor in the trailer is mildly annoying but i think it will work better in the actual movie#however it is very nice to finally get a transformers movie without humans#overall my thoughts on it are very mixed as of now#transformers one#transformers one trailer#tf one#transformers#maccadam

On bonds.
what they had in P3M was really precious!!
I refuse to believe that wasn't part of the base game..it's something that should have been there in the first place!! hope reload does them more justice!!
#persona#persona 3#p3 reload#persona 3 reload#ryomina#I felt really sorry for the both of them you know?? they had something good happen to them and it wouldn't.even las t an h o u r..#that was so cruel but I think it leaves a really meaningful message overall#that you still shouldn't be afraid to reach out no matter how long something may last#spoilers#ryoji was just...genuinely happy to be with everyone..enjoy life and all#he tried his best I think#doodle#and the protag was happy to have him there#it's sad that he had to be so sorry about everything that wasn't his fault too...#oh it was ironically funny and tragic they listened to burn my dread-last battle-together in the movie... that was a nice touch...#I had no idea that was a thing till pretty recent#P3M

I always wondered why I fell out of love with marvel/ superhero movies around age 18. A friend's family I'm staying with is watching Aquaman 2 and I definitely know why now.
#foxy speaks#jason momoa is cool and the visuals are nice if a little cgi heavy#creature deisgns are fun. the evil uniforms are fugly though#and the contrast between some heavy scenes and the overall tone is jarring at best#logic? what is logic?#i guess that's always been a thing in superhero movies but man i am getting old

Wow, congratulations to Black Clover Sword of the Wizard King being nominated in the Crunchyroll Anime Awards. That being said, I don’t think it will win.
#Suzume got nominated for a Golden Globe guys#And I think I preferred the Kaguya-sama movie aside from that#Sword of the Wizard King looked nice but the plot didn’t do it for me#Even though it was overall a good time#black clover#black clover sword of the wizard king#crunchyroll anime awards 2024

There's something about silly cafe AUs that soothes my soul so much
#hi. my name is pluto and i came up with yet another idea for a fic#will i ever finish the previous wips? who knows#anyways. imagine a spiderverse cafe au where the spiders run a small cafe/restaurant/bakery whatever#the parker surname is funny inside joke bc none of them are related#peter b is either that one employee whos been there longest (has a lot of experience) or is the owner#peter b's mary jane delivers the fruit and vegetables and whatnot. theyre exes and are trying to act professional#but they decide to try again (like in the movie). the drama is unreal and the rest of the spider squad tease him about it so much#gwen is that one punk teen thats kinda scary. feels like shes judging you but shes actually just tired#rude customers stand no chance against her. makes delicious coffee. makes the best playlists. chill coworker#peni is also a teen. the best coworker you could ask for. customers love her bc shes very pleasant and overall really really nice#miles is the fresh faced part timer. kinda clumsy. well liked amongst the aunties and moms#draws THE BEST doodles on the cups/bags and so on#noir is also the scary coworker whos very chill once you get to know him. takes care of the deliveries. makes the food#strong as fuck. all the moms and grandmas fawn over him but hes clueless#felix (male felicia hardy. kinda an oc at this point?? love him so much) is one of the delivery guys. very punctual and pleasant#also very charming. brings gifts and things like that to people he likes. sneaks in snacks#benjamin (noir) doesnt care much for him at the beginning but after some time he weirdly?? feels upset?? when the delivery person#is not felix?? they start talking while taking the stuff out of the delivery van. laugh. get to know each other better#then felix starts visiting the cafe/whatever. becomes a regular. benjamin starts giving him food/coffee 'for the road'#the rest of the squad thinks theyre disgustingly adorable and try to get them together#I JUST CAME UP WITH THIS BUT I WILL DIE IF I FORGET ABOUT THIS#midnightfangz.txt#fanfiction#writing#long tags#spiderman: into the spiderverse

2D brain: TMP is sluggish and takes up way too much screentime on visual effects
3D brain: TMP is an acid movie
#tmp is psychedelic a slowburn gay drama of existential proportions#sttmp#tmp#it just came out a little late in the game#psych movies were still kinda popular in the late 70s and on but they started to look different by then and weren't as obvious#tmp is both shrouded in parallels and imagery#there is almost a dark sardonic quality to its overall tone going in#especially considering the bright and manic tone of the original#and by the end the characters are exactly where they belong in the universe#but anyway its also really nice as an acid movie precisely because of its lack of demand for constant action tbh#star trek#like action can be good but too much action and I'm just high and lost#tmp defense team

"I admit, I'm a bit indecisive when it comes to my favorite fruit," August admitted with a smile to Erika, as he helped himself to a little red beans and rice. "I love peaches, but I do also love strawberries-on any given day, I could name either as my favorite."
"Do you like peach cobbler, or peaches and cream better?" Erika asked over her little plate of chicken nuggets and mac 'n cheese (matching her brother's meal), a small part of her glad to know she wasn't the only one who found it hard to pick a favorite. At this, August replied, "It's hard to decide, isn't it? If you twisted my arm, I'd likely choose cobbler, but...a little peaches and cream is more than welcome in my book."
"Strawberries are gross..." Lon groused with a little pout, while Erika conceded, "They're okay, I guess." She didn't have as big a reaction to eating them as her brother did; while she only made a little face upon trying them before pushing the little bowl of berries away, Lon had made quite a show of his disdain for the flavor, much to his parents' amusement, with Randall chuckling as he dug into his crawfish boil, "I really thought they'd take to 'em as quickly as I did, but no dice-more for me then, I suppose!"
"What about you, Dorian?" Josephine asked curiously, as she took another sip of Guinness, which she quite liked. "Do you have a favorite fruit?"
"I admit, when it comes to sweets, I tend to reach for a good piece of chocolate, but cards on the table, I quite like citrus, especially lemon. Lizzie's mother Lena loves to work with lemon in her cooking, even outside of her wonderful lemonade, so I guess it's no grand surprise I enjoy it so much," Dorian smiled with a shrug, before adding, "Lizzie and I compliment each other in that sense-she likes orange the best."
"Ah, you're a couple after my own heart then!" Josephine grinned brightly. "My friends and I loved to play around and make all sorts of drinks at each other's houses when we weren't working, and I always loved a nice, crisp vodka and orange juice mixed together after hours."
"What's vodka?" Erika asked curiously, to which her great-grandmother replied, "It's a grown-up drink made out of potatoes."
"Ew!" Lon gagged from his seat, at which Josephine giggled amusedly at his response, assuring him, "It doesn't really taste like potatoes, I promise. But it's nothing you two need to worry about-juices are better for you anyways."
Neither Lon nor Erika had any arguments about this, continuing to enjoy their meal and drinks without a second thought, with the topic eventually shifting to the twins' birthday, which got the pair all sorts of excited-though they did both sigh, "Awww..." when their father gently reminded them not to get nosy about learning any of the details for the party-they didn't want to spoil any of the surprises, now did they?
#((it's very open! it really is a learning experience to watch the kill counts; i love learning everything he brings up))#((from how the filmmakers pulled off a particular special effect; where else you may have seen the cast))#((-be them on the kill count or something else-))#((how he highlights particular crew members for their contributions to the film; he loves to go in-depth))#((on the making of these movies and i; as an overall trivia nerd; absolutely eat it up!))#((and big agree; i appreciated their support of the strike; even if; like you said; it made their lives harder))#((not being able to cover what they usually would on the kill count-but they weren't about to cross that line!))#((it's true; without those writers and their creations; there would be no dead meat; and no kill count!))#((i also appreciate that both james and chelsea brought up how they-and likely a lot of the rest of the team-))#((grew up in working-class households and understood the importance of workers' rights and unions!))#((it's a nice personal touch that really shows how deep that support goes; i feel!))#outofhatboxes#beatingheart-bride#V:Two Worlds; One Family

wren rambles about the borderlands movie in tags
#so I went to the movie assuming it would be nothing like the games and be super shitty in general#I’ll preface with the statement that I’m generally pretty easy to please when it comes to movies#I go with the intention of enjoying myself and usually end up doing that#but my expectations were really low here#I genuinely really enjoyed this movie#some of the characterization fell short of the games but I expected that#the plot definitely deviates from the games#assuming this is meant to be Borderlands 1 timeline#but I liked how it came together#I found that the character differences made it easier to see this as its own story and not trying and failing to keep to the canon#the villain was eh but that’s because it wasn’t handsome Jack#frankly I find the first game very eh to begin with and this was certainly more interesting than that#as for the stuff I liked a lot#the cgi man#the settings and the creatures and the little details#really made it for me#I loved how the movie nods to things that it doesn’t need to for the story but did it anyway for the atmosphere and for the fans#the skags and the raak and the threshers were so cool#and just treated as part of the world and not something that even needed a ton of emphasis#like oh yeah watch out there’s threshers around here#the stickers on Marcus’ bus and the posters and graffiti did so much to build the world and atmosphere#I feel like it really matched the Borderlands tone of not taking itself seriously#and the world felt fleshed out rather than something we were being introduced to for the first time#overall I really liked it and will seek it out to watch more when it’s available#oh and claptrap wasn’t too gratuitous so that was nice#all his humour was really in character and not just showing off that they got Jack black to voice him#shit wren says#wren rambles#borderlands#borderlands movie
