Well of course my oc has more than one outfit

Default: self explanatory, it’s her default outfit. It’s the outfit she was wearing when Johnny introduced her to everyone and when she attacked Bi-Han.

Kalamity Kandi- if you payed attention to the first time I introduced her I said she owned a rave club cause she could. Of course she has a Kandi necklace with the MK logo on it.

Temporary Guidance: Liu Kang suggested that the Shirai Ryu help her deal with her emotions to help her communicate with more spirits.

Side note: Spirits could be linked to her emotions. Meaning when she gets frustrated, the spirits get aggressive.

Screenplayer: She is a screenwriter. What more could I say.

Fun fact: I actually do that with my hair when I am writing fanfic. Same Hello Kitty clip. No ponytail tho since my hair isn’t long enough.

Prison Sleepover: Okay so this one was based on a side story where Rain and Reiko are captured in Earthrealm. The reason they were even there was because Reiko was sent to kill Rain but Rain broke free. It began a chase that made them go through the portal to Earthrealm only to be captured by the monks at the Wu Shi Academy. It was then Kris and Johnny’s job to be prison guards resulting in the most infuriating moments for the two Outworlders.

Fun Fact: based some elements of the outfit off of Snooki. Love that mess of a woman.

Smoke’s Bride: I mean…what can I say? You get the idea.

Now all I gotta do is make her possessed form…

Who am I?

Hello everyone,

I'm kinda new here, and I finally found some time to introduce myself. About time, I'd say.

I am Thomas, a 34yo (born September 1989) French guy living in northern Italy, and I work as a screenplayer, script writer, and writer for tabletop RPGs. So, will this blog be about movies and games?

Oh, no. Fuck, no.

This is the means of release of my kink and intrusive thoughts. Which usually revolve around the following things

Bellies

Bellyaches

Feeding

Overeating

Hunger

Burps

Emeto

... and pretty much so on.

What will I do on this Tumblr?

Honestly, I don't know. I may take some time and try to write some sickfics. Or maybe just making irregular posts with random thoughts and kinks. Or just reblogging someone else's posts.

It depends on how much time I have, and how am I dealing with my bipolar disorder!

I just hope to find my tiny place in this awesome community, and... that's all. Thank you very much for reading me.

See you later!

My opinion on why the Fantastic Beasts Franchise didn't make!!!

1st... J.K.Rolling, is an amazing book writter, but as a screenplayer writter, no, should have written first as a Book, than a experience screen writter took from there.

2nd... lack on focus of protagonist, is this newt story or Dumbledore vs Grindelwald story, what is the point.

3rd... I truly believe that Mads Mikkelsen should be Grindelwald from the Beginning, Deep Protray is out of tune in relation to the others, Mikkelsen and Law found the right chemistry for those roles

That's my opinion

Look what you made me do…

[nmotypdfsfg]

sometimes I feel like there is one script template and screenplayers just copy whole paragraphs from it and paste it into the next scripts

[riverswater]

I can't take it anymore with books about writers and films about directors and screenplayers I know that we can only write about ourselves but can we at least try to distance ourselves from our characters. This is so fucking boring to me.

[heavenssexiestangel]

Please don't send fanfic of their works to any writer/screenplayer/producer/whatever. They can get in legal trouble and also like...

Please keep the fanfic world and the original stuff separated. This is weird.

hello there

i was reading headcanons for good omens on reddit and found this amazing gem

what's your take on it?

Please don't send me fanfic.

The 3rd tale is Twelve Months 😁.

Word "měsíček" means both marigold and "little month", hence the confusion.

Edit: Twelve Months is a local fairytale take on "Frau Holle" type of tale (good sister/bad sister)

Some context:

The film is quite popular here, mostly because its renowned creators: director Jan Svěrák (he got Oscar award for Kolya in 1996) and beloved music authors: lyricist Zdeněk Svěrák (who also plays the narrator) and composer Jaroslav Uhlíř.

The music is not new though! Svěrák and Uhlíř originally composed three separate plays (Sleeping Beauty, Red Riding Hood and Twelve Months) with songs for children and they adapted it as a part of their children program in 90's I think.

To be clear: the plays were originally acted out by children and they were meant as theatre plays that can be easily adapted by schools etc. (so e.g. when the hunter asks Red Riding Hood to marry him when she grows up, it's more natural to watch it when they are both literal cute small children - in Three Brothers it's a kid + teenager, so it's more awkward 😁)

Eventually, son of the lyricist/screenplayer Zdeněk Svěrák, Jan Svěrák decided to mix all three theatre plays up and hence the idea for Three Brothers was born.

In my opinion, it's a fun and cute movie with some catchy songs, primarily intended for small kids but even parents love it 😊

I saw a post here about a specific Czech movie that got released recently (well... in 2014) and I wanted to reblog it, but there were too many GIFs so my computer crashed X) Instead I'll make my own GIF-free: so the original post was all about how this musical movie was not great... except for the Wolf of the Little Red Riding Hood segment, which was a giant puppet which, I quote, seemed straight out of a Jim Henderson production.

The movie in question is "Three Brothers" (Tři bratři), a fantasy musical for children about, as you guessed it, three brothers undergoing their own journeys throughout a fairytale world to find love, and each becoming involved in a different fairytale: the first in Sleeping Beauty, the second in Little Red Riding Hood, the third in a Czech version of Cinderella (called Dvanáct měsíčků, which Google Translates tells me means "Twelve Marigolds"? But since I know nothing about this I might be dead wrong).

Here are various pictures from this movie (including the famed Wolf puppet, and I'm cheating a bit by including pictures of a display of it at... Prague I think?):

Can one seriously be a true Tolkien fan AND a lover of the Halbrand/Galadriel dynamics in TROP?

I have been a hardcore fan of Tolkien's work for 20 years and especially enjoyed the feast of mythology that is the Silmarillion. So I'm fully aware that TROP took (too) many liberties from the lore and disregarded its time/space framework, almost as if it were a different story than that Tolkien wrote. And I don't want to delve into the polemics of what could have been done differently with the Appendixes material they owned the rights to.

What really interests me here is that much of the dynamics between Galadriel and Halbrand/Sauron, though not being in the canon/lore, stems from issues that were present there, except they lacked any romantic undertones. Galadriel has actually been fighting Sauron in her mind for centuries, and this must have started somewhere.

TROP gave its own interpretation of one of these possible starts, and as far as these two characters are concerned, it doesn't bother me. One can love the lore and at the same time enjoy an interesting, new take to two powerful characters, that creates something new with them. Is it a fanfic-like move? Yes. Is it disrespectful towards Tolkien? Arguable.

The question would then be, to what extent is fan-fiction disrespectful? Are some works to be shielded by it, up in their ivory tower to prevent "tainting"? I mean, has anyone ever created a fanfiction on the Divine Comedy? (I t'd be soooo fun if they had!). Where are we to draw the line between literature and creativity?

In the end, a work of art such as LOTR will not be tainted by any faulty rendition. If one truly loves it for what it is, and especially strip it of any religious/ideologocal layer that was quite far from Tolkien's intentions, a series such as TROP changes nothing. One will always have to go back to the book, and the book alone (possibly in the indescribably beautiful English of the original), to find the real LOTR, as all adaptations (and even translations) involve some degree of distancing from the source material.

Back to the two of them, then.

I personally think the screenplayers knew very well what they were doing in colouring the interactions between Halbrand and Galadriel with not-so-subtle romantic shades. The fact that the actors label it as an interpretation from the audience, I can understand, but if so many people caught these undertones, it's no longer an interpretation, it's simply the audience's ability to catch on the non-verbal cues, one that we almost all possess. The light, the music, the proximal distance, the cut of scenes, and, even the way the actors delivered some lines at the physical level are all cues. They cannot possibly have been ALL dropped there by chance.

So, the romantic possibility of the connection is there to be, if not seen, at least perceived in a tangible way, although never confirmed. This was, cynically speaking, a bold but intelligent move. Proof is the 130 and counting fanfics that sprouted in less than two weeks from the last episode's airing (some of them remarkably well-written).

The heroine/villain and (unacknowledged)lovers-to-enemies tropes are too powerful not to be used by a show which hundreds of millions of dollars have been poured in. In doing so, they opened up new and interesting territories to explore, that make it more entertaining for a consistent faction of fandom.

I, for one, thoroughly enjoyed the opening of a space in which two such characters might be bound to experience something akin to love that has no time enough to bloom, but that will potentially loom in the back of their minds for millennia, charging their conflict with a rich array of complex emotions, a connection beyond time and space.

Even knowing full well how doomed such a romance is, its ability to inspire amazing levels of creativity is undeniable, and as such, it can be welcomed without subtracting anything to a more traditional enjoyment of the Tolkienian lore in all its fantastic richness.

The LOTR's author loved stories, after all.

Analizing the post of hate directed to Ms. Marvel:

RACISM, RELIGION AND BIGOTRY

- people who are mad about a show that has a pakistani muslim girl as protagonist

- very religious people who think that Kamala should be like Nakia and wear an hijab all the time

- people who hate Nakia because Yasmeen Fletcher is not a fully turkish muslim, but an half-white christian

GOOD CRITICS (no spoilers):

- people who think the show should be more close the the comic

- people who criticize the fact this show is a teen drama

- Najma is a bit over-reacting all the time

- the fact screenplayers fucked up at some point, despite having a good material for adaptation and a great casting, screenplayers weren't able to develop a good plot over six episodes

- screenplayers took one of the most successful characters Marvel unveiled in the past decade, with a large audience reach, changed a lot of important details, and ruined it, failing to explain why all those badly mash-up of events were happening

- even if their rapresentation of Pakistani-American community is really good and the historical events of Partition have been praised by fans as well-depicted, this show doesn't have a plot strong enaugh to collect togheter all the six episodes in a well-made story

Most of the issue here is due to face value... Disney tries to look progressive giving us a (self proclaimed) latina Snowhite and "7 magical creatures" because they feel like "dwarves" is stigmatizing and not cool.

Yes, the word "dwarf" is derogative, but the story is named like that... it has been used by centuries and I'm pretty sure that many people with enanism as ok with it because even if it is not perfect, they are a important part of the story.

You can always change the story.

Pushkin did it. His version is called "The Dead Princess and the seven knights", fair enough it's based in Russia but by erasing the name Snowhite you no longer need a girl "as white as snow" (and one of my favourite things is that she doesn't wake up due to the Prince's love kiss, the Prince is so shocked of seeing her in the glass coffin that throws himself to cry on it and because of that shake she spits the apple and awakes... give us a dramatic Prince!! 🤣). Of course, Disney wasn't going to do this story because Snowhite is their brand and all... but still... I'm certain that there are HUNDREDS of versions of the story. (Including mine the English Version might need a check up because I think I made a mistake somewhere -I wrote it at 4AM one morning- but the Spanish one should be better)

The mistake of The Hobbit.

Even if The Lord of the Rings was at the time populated by middle-tier actors in the leading roles (with some exceptions) and newcomers, The Hobbit had too many expectations and they weren't going to take any chances casting-wise. Not to mention that casting 13 real dwarves was going to be a practical challenge because Tolkien's Dwarves have a determined height (I think close to 1.56m) and Bilbo had to be even smaller (I think Hobbits are close to 1.20m) so, shinking actors is easier than having a a very hard casting process that would require to meet not just height and look but acting skills as well.

However the actors did something cool that I wish the screenplayers had done... they gave each one of their characters a backstory. In Tolkien's book they are completely interchangeable, the only difference between them is the colour of the capes and the instrument they play. The Hobbit production team gave them particular looks and that's where their effort ended.

Given that (according to them) the audience wasn't going to care much about the Dwarves, they pushed the Elves and Humans to a more active role than the one they have in the book. But all of us book-nerds wanted to know more about the Dwarves! That's the point, they and Bilbo are the main characters!

I wish they included the backstories created by the actors somehow in the script, using them to bond with Bilbo or -given that some of them were inventors/artisans- with them using their skills when facing danger. We only had a throw-off line of "not all of us are soldiers" and that was it...

In Snowhite they could be more than miners with one personality trait that names them, make them the outcasts of the village that turn into heroes for defeating the Evil Queen (and by doing so you can talk about discrimination, show how nice Snowhite is by seeing beyond their apperance... hell you can even bring invisibilization by making everyone in town not care about them and turn this into an important tool once they hide Snowhite). But, alas, Creativity is dead in the places where it matters the most.

I think the host of the show is doing a HORRIBLE job in here. He should act as a mediator, not take sides. But I feel like gringos news are all like these. They love taking sides.

Having said that, the blond kid saying "Well, as a gay person…" is in the wrong too. Dude, this isn't about you. Nobody is talking about gays, a dwarf actor is talking about being dwarf in Hollywood. You dont talk over him, you listen. I understand the issues with stereotypes, ofc. When you are part of a minority, Hollywood pigeonholes you. It happens to us Latinos a lot. But the difference is that many years have passed since we started watching Latinos, or gays, on our screens. The number of actors and actress increased so much that issue become visible and more people began to ask for a change. In the case of dwarf actors, THERE IS PRACTICALLY NO ONE WORKING ON TV OR MOVIES. Taking away their jobs opportunities not only affects them financially, but also prevents them from growing in numbers, joining together, and demanding for better roles later on.

I know is not an easy subject. I have no idea what's the right decision is here. But the movie had 7 roles that dwarf actors could have played.

And yes, these are not the best roles. Is controversial as hell. But we could have had 7 dwarf actors in a disney movies. Can you imagine the work prospect for those men after that?
