Don’t mind me laying on the floor and feeing all the Devotion feelings

Apologies to everyone who follows me because you’re about to be subjected to SO much Lisa Frankenstein posting, I am so deeply abnormal about this movie and I would not be surprised if it ended up being one of my top ten favorite movies of all time.

My only wish is that my theatre could have been more crowded, it was a pretty dead audience (pun intended) which meant I spent a solid 60% of my energy trying not to cause a scene every time there was a needle drop or anything that felt like it was specifically calling me out for being a weird little goth.

I just want to reflect how much the Loki show ruined Loki as a character for me and how much disheartened I was with it.

I had always wanted a spinoff on him, which explored him more. And the Loki show did anything but that.

Do you guys remember how Loki was in Infinity War for like 5 minutes, yet Tom Hiddleston was at almost every media interaction the cast had? The same thing happened in the show as well. They used him to market the show, then sidelined him in his own show. I think that was unacceptable, because they used Loki as a bait to promote a character that I held no emotions for.

Sylvie.

The argument that one does not like Sylvie because they “hate a strong female character/a character with complex arcs” is so pathetic. I don’t think I would’ve liked Sylvie even if she had the most elaborate arc in the MCU (which she doesn’t) because it just wasn’t meant to be about her.

I wanted to see Loki’s story, his journey, and if you take this moment to interject with the statement that “she’s Loki too, just different”, then I say that I wanted to see our Loki, the one who was broken when he found out that he was the monster parents told their children about at night, the one who had plethora of iconic dialogues while fighting the avengers, who was killed only for us to realize that he wasn’t.

Everytime I said that we needed a Loki spinoff before it was announced was not because I wanted new characters, it was because I wanted to see more of the character that was already there, very much beloved by the fans. I wanted them to explore his character in a deeper sense and maybe dip a little into mythology as well.

I think Loki was one of those characters that neither needed a love interest nor was ready for one. I don’t ship him with either Sylvie or Mobius, because it feels like neither of them genuinely like Loki for who he is.

Loki had far more compelling things they could have explored like his jotun heritage, his trauma from the time with Thanos and his magic that is the only memory he has of Frigga instead of his love life.

The whole show felt like it was written by someone who wasn’t the least bit interested in Loki and barely looked into him before creating his female counterpart.

It feels like a disrespect for the fans who were connected to Loki on an emotional level.

Why am I saying this now, after like 2 years since the show came out?

I don’t know, after hearing the news about season 2 releasing in October, I just feel so upset. Tired. I hate this show much because it made Loki so irrelevant to me. A sidepiece in his own show. He went around in ugly costumes and all the regal vibes I had from him just disappeared.

I still remember a time when Loki was on the top of my favorite characters, and I loved him so much. I still do, but I’m not sure if I’ll watch the 2nd season and my 13 y/o self would hate me for this.

I’ve gotten detached from his character and I hate myself for it because Loki was someone whom I adored more than anything else in the fandom world.

Loki is that one character who is loved by the fanon but absolutely despised by the canon.

Lisa Frankenstein was AMAZING! It was funny awkward, disturbing, so so so camp, and wonderfully 80s. I will never get the line: “You cut it off for me?” out of my head and frankly I don’t want to.

”💚: What does everyone else get wrong about your favorite character?”

Technically not my favorite character but soooo many people down play how deeply dramatic Octavius is and it’s the bane of my existence. 

Frequently Jedediah is all silly Octavius is just isn’t. But in reality they are both like, equally silly. Equally sincere. Equally melodramatic. And we should let them be that

I drove 2 hours to get this after work last night it was so worth it

No. No, Anthony. TWISTERS INTERVIEW WITH GLEN POWELL, DAISY EDGAR-JONES, AND ANTHONY RAMOS

Movie theaters have gotten so bad with not supervising kids who sneak into adult movies that I have to go to an 11am showing of Longlegs on a Thursday because I’m sure no one will be there, since most morning showings are empty, especially for horror movies.

Like first of all the rules state that people under the age of eighteen can’t be on their property without an adult or legal guardian after 6pm. So why the hell was there an entire group of 15-16 year olds in my 8pm showing of the definitely rated R movie In a Violent Nature ?

Why was there a group of pre teens at the 7pm showing of Late Night With the Devil ?

Why was there a group of unsupervised kids at the showing of Lisa Frankenstein, where granted it was 4pm but it was PG-13 and none of those kids have parents with them but me, a 21 year old adult had to be carded just to get my ticket ? And I admit I did take my 16 year old cousin with me to see it but I was her adult supervision so we weren’t breaking the rules

Like even when I went to go see the Mario movie at 10pm at night, teenagers shouldn’t have been there because it was 10pm and they’re not allowed on property without adults but they were

And like I’m not trying to be a Karen but I wouldn’t have a problem with it if they weren’t so loud and noisy and obnoxious and disruptive. Like when I went to go see In a Violent Nature, a relatively quiet movie, the teenagers kept being obnoxious and laughing really loudly and making fart noises and letting out loud belches thinking it was funny, Lisa Frankenstein, they were being loud and obnoxious and on their phones, Late Night With the Devil kept loudly shouting “What the fuck !” and just laughing at inappropriate moments and even at the Mario movie they were throwing popcorn at each other and on their phones, recording and being loud

Like I genuinely wouldn’t have a problem if they would just behave or had parental supervision. But it’s getting to the point where I’m starting to advocate having ushers inside the movie theater again to monitor people who are being disruptive.

And I think half the problem is that most of the staff at my movie theater are teenagers. So they probably don’t care enough to ID people or they’re letting their friends in to see rated r movies and I would actually prefer them having adults run the ticket station and monitor the remote ticket station and have the teens work concessions and clean up to help curve these problems and after 6pm or 7pm or even 8pm, it should be an all adult staff for the late night showings of movies. Like I’m actually waiting for the day where kids go back to school so that I can go back to late night showings of movies on weekdays without worrying about disruptive and unsupervised children who lack movie theater etiquette

I don’t know. Am I being unreasonable? Because every time I rant about it to family they always go “it’s not that serious” and make fun of me for being mad that my movie experience is being interrupted and my mom always says “well you take your cousin and your brother to the movies” but they don’t understand that im an adult supervising them and they also behave.

When my cousin and I went to go see Lisa Frankenstein whenever she got a phone call she’d leave the theater and answer the phone outside and wouldn’t return until the call was done and when I took my brother to see Godzilla Minus One and Godzilla and Kong the most he came to being disruptive was when it was a really intense scene and he either was so overcome with emotion he stood up out of his chair in cheered which I let him do because everyone else did it too or when he started bawling his eyes out because he couldn’t believe what he was seeing and it was his first time ever seeing a Godzilla movie in theaters and I have no doubt that he’ll have another moment like those when I take him to see Transformers One, his first Transformers movie in theaters and Alien Romulus, his first Alien movie in theaters, because whenever it’s one of his hyperfixations and interest he gets really excited and can’t help but to overflow with emotion despite being a kid who really doesn’t do emotions and doesn’t like talking about his feelings.

I don’t know. This rant got out of hand. Just let me know if I’m over reacting or being unreasonable

So I am claiming ownership over FNAF now

lucifer is more like hotel transylvanias dracula than you people care to admit

[gowns]

the more i think about tar the more pissed-off i get. the ending is supposed to be like *sensible chuckle* like a left turn kind of joke that comes at the end of a story on the moth storytelling hour.

he he he, the great lydia tar has been brought low by being Banished to the Far East and now must sing for her supper by conducting video game scores for cosplayers.

again, i ask -- if this is "just desserts," it's insulting to the cosplayers, their culture, their foreignness, their plebeian status. if it's like, "actually this is a good thing for tar," it's insulting to the 2.5 hours that just passed. ajkslajldjldjljhdhjhslh

my dad is a conductor of a community band at a community college, and has done various conducting gigs throughout the years in between doing jazz and session recording etc. which is way lower status than what lydia tar was just doing. like she could have gone "lower." and still what my dad does is pretty impressive and good for his local community. and he would still have a lot to lose if someone came forward about him abusing his power.

i was reading that todd field talked to one (1) conductor while writing his screenplay and it shows. the references seem really intelligent but put all together it's just stupid. like oh really. lydia tar was bernstein's protege. how does that make sense. if you know when bernstein was alive and how old lydia tar is and the kind of work that she does and the way that he is actually most lauded for being a *populist* conductor it's just. aflajgalajkaldga the whole fucking thing falls apart if you know anything about conducting. "oh but it's not about conducting, it's about the fall from grace." and the fall from grace is.... Exile this woman to the Far East for the Cardinal Sin of Pride. the most regressive banal story arc i can imagine.

[swinging-stars-from-satellites]

I think some part of me will always be that kid walking out of a huge movie theater into a grey overcast afternoon not realizing her world was about to be permanently changed but feeling changed already herself by the animated Disney film she'd just seen that she would spend a year acting like she was too cool to be affected by, even though she'd never cried at a movie before that and and the cries from the speakers were still ringing in her ears on that cold, overcast afternoon, right before her world changed

“❤: Which character do you think is the most egregiously mischaracterized by the fandom?”

I think overall the fandom does a pretty good job on characterization; it’s usually just things that are consistently slightly off.

However, weirdly, I gotta say people get Larry wrong a lot? Like, he’s a lot funnier than we give him credit far. And a lot snarkier, and a lot weirder. 

He is absolutely Tired Dad Keeping Everyone Else AliveTM but he also is absolutely as chaotic as every one of the exhibits???

He has zero clue what he’s doing. No plan whatsoever, he just figures it out as he goes. His knee jerk reaction in conversation is fucking with the other person. His boss yells at him and he goes straight to “snarky as humanly possible” despite it being his first day. He is so peevish. He could not do long division to save his life. He’s probably the only one in the whole museum who’s monolingual. He is amazingly competent. He’s unhinged and we need to give him credit for that.

Is ONLY AMC giving away Shadow Posters BEFORE Friday? I'm going to a Regal one at the earliest showing.😫

Hey Darlin’!❤️✨

From my understanding, the posters are at both AMC and Regal cinemas. However, I’d call ahead and see if they still have the poster. Some people on Twitter have stated that AMC is passing out posters early and ran out of them.
