Just gonna put this here to showcase how badly the Smallville writers fumbled the bag with this one.
I aM tHe ViLlAiN oF tHiS sToRy.... yeah okay. You messed up a perfectly good character is what you did.
#rambles by me#video by me#smallville#smallville meta#lex luthor#particles (piano version) by nothing but thieves#season four analysis#(not really but I'm still heated about season four)#the brainrot is real#Btw the second to last clip is from episode 1x03 (hothead) I believe#it was the moment I decided that Lex Luthor was going to be my favorite character#(I am not a great video editor)#(it seriously took so long to find some of these clips and there were some I had in mind that I couldn't find)#How could you have the scene about a villain's arc being a journey#and then just up and decide one day that Lex is the villain#tbf they always treated him like the villain#they hate to see a bad bitch winning#he was seriously so kind and good#I will never understand you Smallville writers#I probably sound rabid rn but idc#let me have my moment#freaking out is my way of having fun

of the many injustices put forth toward the show by fans i think the most overall damaging and telling of a complete lack of critical viewership is the idea that sam riegel builds his characters with nothing more than the bit in mind. like you are only telling on yourself if you think characters like scanlan shorthalt and veth brennato are one-dimensional and depthless
#if im being exTREMEly generous i can maybe understand this view of scanlan if you started c1 and then gave up 30 episodes later#he played the long game with him more than any other and a lot of his growth could be looked at as shallow if you DIDNT watch til the payoff#but any time this opinion is used as a blanket over all of his characters including tary and even FCG.. like be serious#i mean at this point im definitely biased bc he is my favorite player at the table. However. that wasnt always the case#and even when i was myself writing some character choices off i NEVER applied that to the characters themselves. how can you??#seen sooo many ppl criticize him for making veth an alcoholic or scanlan irreverent & hedonistic as tho it’s only possible#to play these traits as shallow jokes or at best played out satire…. and then the same person will turn around#and praise how percy was built to be pompous & superior and jester immature & self-centered and caleb steeped in self-effacing hubris#why are these characters and their players given a near universal acceptance of nuance and acknowledgement of growth & healing#but SAMS CHARACTERS ARE NOT!!!!#this turned into such a rant but it bothers me SO much. everyone at the cr table is so goddamned talented#and takes the game as seriously as it deserves#so many more points i could argue but this is already so goddamn long no one is reading this far. i love sam and all of his characters <333#critical role#sam riegel#scanlan shorthalt#veth brennato#my posts

Have you seen black sails? I don't want to spoil it but I imagine the "they live" au being similar to a certain plot in that show. Bittersweet and you're not sure if it's really a *good* life but at least they're together.....
.
#I'm getting recommended a lot of pieces of media and I seriously need to get cracking with them#I hope you know that I keep track of this stuff pretty carefully#because if someone takes time out of their day to let me know some piece of fiction#reminds them of me/my characters/themes/interests#then I'm definitely going to give it a look#no I haven't watched Black Sails unfortunately#I watched an episode or two forever ago and I think I liked it alright#but I can't for the life of me remember why I didn't continue with it#most likely I was just in a bad headspace or overwhelmed at the time or something but I've been meaning to give it a second chance#coincidentally I liked the theme song so much I've been listening to it regularly all these years#partly because it prominently features one of my favorite rare instruments#hurdy-gurdy my beloved

genuinely my favorite villains from PPG have to be the RRB idk why but I just adore them they’re funny crazy and a bit terrifying
#if the powerpuff girls wasnt a kids show the rowdyruff boys would be a far scarier threat in my opinion#because they kicked the girls -sses TWICE#and they were very sadistic about it too#they’re very sadistic over all#which is another reason why I love them#the RRB are very much comedic with how stupid their weaknesses are clearly a joke on boys weird aversion and hatred of femininity and girls#in general#which is a shame since I kinda wish they were treated more seriously but I wish that for a lot of villains in general they’re still one of#the best villain groups in PPG#like they were first made by mojo jojo in a prison cell toilet then after being killed by the PPG gets brought back by the DEVIL himself#and they’re even stronger more unhinged and angrier then before#like I genuinely love how malicious villains are in PPG I do#I constantly rewatch the episode where the RRB get brought back because it’s such a fun episode and I love analyzing every little detail of#my favorite boys#my favorite of the RRB group is butch#no real reason I just love how weird he is like genuinely what is wrong with him😭#ppg#powerpuff girls#rrb#rowdyruff boys#my stuffy stuff#text#what makes them so scary is when they defeat the powerpuff girls in their return episode they start torturing the sh-t out of them by#knocking them around squishing them smashing them against things acting as if they’re toys to handle as they please#think they did other things but I can’t remember cause it’s been a bit since I rewatched it#these guys are insane and I love it#I wish they had more screen time unironically because when I tried searching for more episodes with them they didn’t have many#and I’m kinda sad the PPG and the RRB don’t get better reboots it’d be so fun to see these characters in newer and better forms

No listen because I am obsessed with the idea of this trope where Character A goes into a long sleep/hibernation/coma whatever and has this long vivid dream where they are with their partner Character B, and they're talking to them sadly, saying things that confuses Character A like "I'm sorry," or "please wake up," "I love you," "don't leave me alone," "I can't live without you," etc.
The whole dream would just be Characters A and B trying to stick together but some unknown force or an inconvenience keeps dragging B or A away from each other and A would eventually break down, crying about how they failed to be there for B, but then A wakes up from their long slumber to see an asleep B right next to them. Character B has been with A for however long they've been asleep for, and all those things they said in the waking world were able to reach them. B would wake up to see A finally awake and seemed calm yet happy to see A again after so long, as if nothing had happened.
Unbeknownst to Character B, however, Character A heard everything.

I'm also tagging#sonadow#-because LISTEN TO MEEEEEE-#I don't know other ships that go well with this trope but I'm sure someone will go insane over this#Also the cause of said slumber and what happened between Characters A and B before these events is up to you.#I'm gonna use this later for future fics teehee 😈

this is what would happen if manuel ever came out to dante probably like 10 mins later

#he would mass text the whole school american shows style#no but let's get serious for a sec in tags#the show has a massive problem with outing throughout both seasons#but i am glad they kinda acknowledged that with simone telling mimmo it isn't right#and that he wanted to be the one to tell him so hopefully this will get touched on in the next episode#it is borderline horrific and irresponsible to show outing queer people as something not as serious idgaf if it's a rai show or whatever#not to mention how badly treated simone is by ofc ernesto and the other boys who beat him up but also dante#who is more concerned abt ernesto than his own son srsly wtf was that knee tap hug your child???#ugh he is seriously one of my least favorite characters even if he is an entertaining character#rant = over#un professore#un professore 2#dante balestra#simone balestra#manuel ferro#simone x manuel#simuel#un prof

After the Gangreen Gang, who would you say is your favorite character in the show?
This is so hard! I really love the Powerpuff Girls collectively. I always loved them all but as a kid Bubbles was my favorite, as a teenager Buttercup was my favorite, and now I can’t pick! I feel like a piece of each of them lives inside me and picking just one feels wrong :,)
I feel like the girls are the embodiment of nostalgia for me and I really love them all. I see them and it fills my heart with warmth honestly!
Favorite villain OTHER than the gangreen gang though is Mojo Jojo for sure. Mojo Jojo was my favorite villain as a kid too!
#spoilers for sins of my youth if anyone else is reading that#but I was actually soooooo mortified when mojo jojo died in somy omg </3#it made sense there was nothing else that could be done#as I was reading I found myself hoping he would die but when it happened 💔💔💔#I seriously had to go rewatch mojo jojo episodes and remind myself he wasn’t dead LMAO#you know you’re a good writer when you’ve got someone rooting for one of their favorite characters to die lol.#it was one of the many times somy brought me to tears#eternal-night-owl#answers

maksim maksimovich isaev spy of all time. here he is on the verge of being discovered as a soviet agent and what is he doing. playing with his toys
#seventeen moments of spring#this is seriously one of my favorite things he does it's such a fun little habit#it also cracks me up every time. in this episode and also back in episode 6#when he's doing this again during an air raid before realizing it would be really stupid if he died in his office#see also: after he's given the job from center to find out who is initiating negotiations w/ the west#and the first thing he does is draw pictures of the most likely suspects#my post

Overall thoughts on the 60th anniversary dr who specials?
I loved them.
I can’t wait to see Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor again.
I just know that he is going to be fantastic.
i love them very much, fourteen and donna are so dear and beloved to me, but i’ve been waiting for fifteen for aaaages like damn… smack my ass and call me The One Who Waits bc i’ve been so so so patient and rtd has given me CRUMBS. i’ve been luxuriating in Ncuti’s wonderful performance so far and watching all the released scenes/trailers, and i can tell he’s gonna be absolutely brilliant. already is. i’m chuffed, couldn’t be happier :)
#i give all the anniversary specials like a 9.5/10 because i’m that asshole#actually wild blue yonder gets full marks#seriously one of my favorite episodes in years !!!!!!!!!#doctor who

they made Cleo a lesbian which is all I ever wanted but I can't even appreciate it because they handled it so fucking badly because this season's showrunners are allergic to having genuine authentic character moments that matter and I hate being upset but I AM
#seriously I started out with such low hopes then really liked the first couple eps so I rose my expectations and now the#latest episodes have been SO DISAPPOINTING. the last one was the absolute worst so far it was such a joke#i know this blog is for little kids shows but i dont have any friends and this is killing me and i just need to complain#'i hope they reboot your favorite series and make it woke and cringy': evil curse to bestow upon your enemies#like where the fuck did cleo liking frida even come from? literally out of nowhere. she hated frida and they had zero relationship growth#my heart belongs to cleo x joan but i would be open to this ship IF THEY ACTUALLY... HAD CHEMISTRY#it would have been so much better if they pushed the idea that cleo still kinda resented that frida was so popular#and her attraction stemmed from envy and other repressed emotions#also do you think a fucking teen girl from 2002 is going to decide woohoo im a homo without zero angst or guilt???#FUCK THATTTTTT cleo absolutely called other girls dykes as an insult back then and now shes cool? fuck that fuck that fuck that#whatever. I hate living in 2023#this is about clone high btw#topher was funny though I'll give it that

I've only been a Doctor Who fan for a few weeks, but the husbands of river song is probably one of the best episodes. As someone who loves any episode that includes River Song and having the 12th doctor as my favorite. It's just full of so many little details of how they really love each other. Twelve getting jealous of River kissing other men and calling them her husband, twelve constantly trying to hint to her he's The Doctor, her love declaration for the Doctor thinking he doesn't love her, him asking why she looks sad about her diary, "Hello, Sweetie", and 24 years in a single night. Need I go on? I wish they got more than that one episode together. The ending makes me sob because of how romantic and sad it is because the next time River sees the Doctor, she's going to die. What's worse, he won't even remember who she is.
#the husbands of river song#rewatching on christmas#im about to have wine and watch another doctor special#but seriously they might be one of my favorite ships ever#theres so many things in this episode that make me giggle#and the ending really makes me want to rip out my heart#doctor who

You mentioned baron nights out being your 2d fave.. which one is your number one?
THE CURSE!! My best friend The Curse!!!
#no but seriously the curse its a perfect episode: it had imo the BEST action sequence in the entire show (the 70s vampires attack)#we see guillermo actively fighting vampires for the first time#the vampires storyline with the bloody mary mails its one of their funniest#i loved when the vampires were really stupid with technology instead of randomly dropping modern references like in the newer seasons#colin being a lil shit and taking advantage of the vampires ignorance#and this is kinda dumb but also it had my favorite ending song#asks
