#phoenix watches movies

[delyth88]

Omg! I completely missed this the first time I watched X-Men First Class!

Are we to assume Charles feels the coin kill Shaw?

I'd just thought Charles was pleading with Erik not to kill again, but damn, that adds a whole new horrifying layer to this!

He needs to stay connected to Shaw because otherwise Shaw will immediately kill Erik, and Charles can't live with that. So he pleads with Erik, even though he knows he can't hear him.

And I'd misread this as it getting harder for Charles to keep Shaw still when he was fighting for his life, but nooooo... he's psyching himself up to endure what's coming.

But nothing can prepare him for what it feels like to have a coin slice through the mind he is linked with.

Damn that's dark! I mean what the hell must that feel like. And he has to keep holding on to Shaw until he's dead - he can't let go.

And he had to, through Shaw's eyes, watch his friend do it to him.

Did Erik know what it would feel like for Charles? Or was he just so consumed by the moment and revenge.

erik just keeps going i'm so horrible and there's no good in me charles. you should leave me. and charles keeps letting him walk away because he wants erik to stay of his own volition instead of forcing him to be by his side. charles waits again and again and again for erik to decide to stay. to pick him over revenge.

and charles is never afforded that privilege until he's the one leaving. only, erik immediately follows—mostly because he's never been one to wait for things to happen: he just does as he demands. and revenge can take a backseat for a game of chess in paris with the only person in the world who's seen him wholly for what he is and loves him anyway.

[belletroxa]

i think that it's a canon event for neurodivergent art theater kids that hyperfixate in pwaa to draw something involving both legally blonde and ace attorney, and now it is MY TURN TO SHINE!

Did anyone actually have a nice day after watching my own private idaho?

PLEASE elaborate on the phoenix and franziska shenanigans during the 7yg you have NO idea how much i like them

I am someone who loved the investigative portion of Bridge to the Turnabout where Franziska had to babysit Phoenix when he wasn't allowed to follow Miles and Iris. I think when he's not her rival defense attorney and is looking particularly pathetic, she is actually pretty chill around him. She is not exempt from his aura that gets young women to imprint on him and follow him around.

She is genuinely offended on his behalf when he gets disbarred because he beat Miles and Manfred and even her! why the hell would he cheat in a case against a teenager! She does not think for a second that he forged that diary page because she knows firsthand how he throws himself into things and cannot prepare an entire evil plan for shit. However, she does not know how to convey this to him so she bullies Miles into flying him and Trucy around because Miles is almost too good at being resigned to pine sadly from a distance.

It's also important to know that she sees Phoenix being a caring father to Trucy and as someone who never really had a valid father, decided that maybe (ex) defense attorneys have rights... Even if Miles didn't get his shit together to put a ring on That Man's finger, Franziska would find herself in Phoenix's found family, it's only a matter of time.

For some reason Phoenix doesn't go to court with Edgeworth, maybe he can't stand being there while not being a lawyer, maybe he forgot he wasn't an attorney once and got kicked out for yelling out an objection, it doesn't matter, Trucy gets to be Edgeworths weirdgirl assistant and Phoenix is stuck investigating with Franziska and they are the worst people to keep each other out of trouble. We're talking about 'guy who ran across a burning bridge' and 'woman who got shot in the shoulder and still managed to get to court eventually' they are an unstoppable duo when they find something they can both get behind.

If anyone can slowly get Franziska to loosen up and learn to embrace the childhood that she lost, it would be Phoenix. I mean, this girl passed the bar at like 13 there was no way she had time to binge she-ra and check out books on drawing horses from the library. He would convince her to get a cat who hangs out in a window backpack that she can carry around during her travels because it turns out that her life is kinda lonely and she totally seems like the cat lesbian type. She is also allergic to cats so she has to get a sphinx or a devon rex or just the most gargoyle/ golbin looking creature to walk on this earth. That just seems like her vibe.

A portrait I did a few years ago of Joaquin Phoenix as Coulmier from Quills (an absolute fever dream of a movie aka my favorite kind of movie)

i love the minecraft/video game movie drama because it reminds me that the ace attorney live action movie exists and that the ace attorney live action movie is wonderful
