something I find extremely well done with Halsin's character is his sexuality. i've been thinking about it on and off but I wanted to write out my thoughts on the matter because it's really well done!

it's rare to find a good representation of a character with high libido in video games. most of the time it's either used as a tool or as a representation of 'sin'. to be fair, most games don't focus on it and don't put it at the forefront, but Larian has gone far and beyond to include intimacy and questions around sex in their game and showed a whole array of very different people with very different tastes. they showed a whole spectrum, from asexuality to the very other end.

with Halsin, his drive is never judged. it's a big part of his character, but not because he's obsessed with it or it's all he thinks about - it's simply a thing he enjoys doing, it makes him feel good and he likes making other people feel good. you can tell it's one of the ways he connects with those he cares about.

and the thing is, he's never judged. he's not the butt of the joke for his desires, it's a part of his druidic nature as well as a part of self. it's beautiful!

he is also so extremely good about boundaries and a healthy discussion of expectations. he never steps over any lines, he is always keeping a door open for more discussion if necessary, he never pushes but he also respects himself greatly. he shows vulnerability when it feels safe to do so.

and like i said, while it's a big part of him, it's also not his whole personality. he is an experienced man who knows what he's about, he is touched by awful trauma, both from his youth but also his more recent times, but his sexuality is not the product of it - it's just who he is.

i love finding mature characters in video games as i myself get older and I love watching devs tackle characters who had a chance and time to grow and become something, someone. in this case, Halsin is so well done, it raises the bar very high for me.

all in all, I'm just really glad they turned him into a proper companion and expanded his story. i know the joke is to thank the "thirsty fans", but really, Larian did very well with him and I think they gave him a very good part in this amazing adventure while also representing a lot of people who are condemned as sex-crazed by the society but are actually just. people.

Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) - REVIEW

Let's be honest, it felt rather inevitable that Deadpool and Wolverine would come together and it's everything you'd hoped it to be. Anyone worrying about the prospect of a Disney owned Deadpool generally needn't worry as this is every bit as R rated and edgy as the first two movies and likewise goes all out. Does it give the Marvel Cinematic Universe a much needed shot in the arm? Not really for me because it doesn't quite feel like an actual part of the MCU even though it casts aside most of the side characters from Deadpool 1 and 2. This film instead does what Spider-Man: No Way Home did in effectively using the Multiverse phase to do its own thing. Deadpool and Wolverine at the very least is a tribute and final send-off to the Fox era of comic book movies that started with 2000's X-Men.

This still has plenty of fourth wall breaking quips from Ryan Reynold's Deadpool that pokes fun at everything from Hugh Jackman's perfect send-off in Logan, the Disney/Fox merger to even the state of the MCU itself. It never feels like it's ever being held back and is very funny from start to finish and most, if not all, of that comes down to Ryan Reynolds who has unquestionable mastered this role to perfection. But this movie has an added edge thanks to the return of Jackman's Wolverine who likewise has mastered his iconic character over the two decades. Reynolds and Jackman have incredible chemistry together whether they're working together, trading insults or fighting each other. The plot is a bit by the numbers that utilises the multiverse concept for some very fun moments that I won't spoil here but it is those moments that you'll remember rather than the plot. A big shout out should be given to Matthew Macfadyen's hilarious, villainous performance as Mr. Paradox. It's all terrific fun.

VERDICT

Deadpool and Wolverine may not reinvent or save the MCU as such, but it is consistently funny, bloody and a terrific night out at the cinema. What more could you want?

4/5

Thinking of the next 𝗦𝗼𝗻𝘆-𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗹 movie, 𝑲𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑯𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒓, will be R-rated, they could make 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎 3 like that too and it may even have some 🔥 scenes...

How much I would like them to adapt the "watch the teeth" scene from the comics, it would be the next step in their relationship after the 𝑳𝒆𝒕 𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝑩𝒆 𝑪𝒂𝒓𝒏𝒂𝒈𝒆 deleted scene and 𝑵𝒐 𝑾𝒂𝒚 𝑯𝒐𝒎𝒆 post-credits scene 😏

Oh yes please, 𝗧𝗼𝗺, do it 🙏🏻😍💓

⠀⠀⠀

Pensando en que la próxima película de 𝗦𝗼𝗻𝘆-𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗹, 𝑲𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝑬𝒍 𝑪𝒂𝒛𝒂𝒅𝒐��, será para +18 años, podrían hacer que también 𝑽𝒆𝒏𝒐𝒎 3 fuera así y pueda incluso tener algunas escenas 🔥...

Cuánto me gustaría que adaptaran la escena de los cómics "vigila los dientes", sería el siguiente paso en su relación después de la escena eliminada de 𝑯𝒂𝒃𝒓𝒂 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒛𝒂 y de la poscréditos de 𝑵𝒐 𝑾𝒂𝒚 𝑯𝒐𝒎𝒆 😏

Oh por favor sí, 𝗧𝗼𝗺, hazlo 🙏🏻😍💓

Throwback to when it was socially acceptable to make kid friendly cartoons based on R rated movies.

Examples: Rambo The Force of Freedom, RoboCop, Highlander The Animated Series, Toxic Crusaders, Police Academy The Animated Series, Conan The Adventurer, Roughnecks Starship Troopers Chronicles

BRO. BRO. BROOO. I just watched

Felidae

(yes, that's a link to the movie on YT).

Since the film made me sick to my stomach (which is a good thing, since it has obscure and heavy topics) and I'm absolutely speechless (I'm still processing) I'm just going to copy-paste what's on the description of the video:

Suggested Rating - Rated R for explicit sexual content involving artwork, strong gore, disturbing images, and other adult themes.

Plot Summary - This noir-ish murder mystery follows the attempts of inquisitive tomcat Francis to find out who is behind the spate of savage murders blighting the feline community in his new neighborhood. The twists and turns include a feline suicide cult, a mad animal experimentor, Francis' own surreal nightmares and the mysterious prophet Felidae.

General Information - Felidae is a 1994 German animated, film noir, mystery directed by Michael Schaack, written by Martin Kluger, Stefaan Schieder and Akif Pirinçci based on the novel Felidae, produced by Trickompany.

“Deadpool & Wolverine” Lands Its R Rating in What Ryan Reynolds Has Called a 'Huge Step' for Disney and Marvel https://au.lifestyle.yahoo.com/deadpool-wolverine-lands-r-rating-235449236.html

Title: A Pleasure Pact

Rating: M. f!Tav x Halsin

Come read my 871 fic where Halsin takes care of f!Tav through pleasant means 😌

Halsin's fingers curl in her hair, pulling by the roots, making her look at him.

“You will be mine tonight.”

Not a question. But not an order either. A simple fact, a truth, a need.

Another look at failed projects. The Magnificent Michelangelo Macchiavelli (working title) a comic I was working on in late 2020. This was one of the victims of my burnout, a dead project. It was a shall we say “tarantino-esque” crime black comedy, revolving around the aging owner of a beauty salon kidnapping his former stepsister (she became his stepmother), to get ransom extra money from his own rich father.

The opening quote here is completely made up. I liked the sound of it, and the idea of a faux opening with no source.

I wrote a full script that is nothing but dialogue after dialogue, and I was purposely trying to be as crass and vicious as possible. There’s some stuff in it that is pretty unpleasant now that I read it back, but a lot that’s still funny in a grotesque way. Main character’s design is based around Morgan, an infamous italian songwriter, one of those “he’s a great artist so we let him get away with being a prick” type.

These pages hold up pretty well in terms of visuals and colors I think.

Wish we got a revival or reboot of Stripperella or even a live action or animated feature film with an R rating.
