When you get so mad about six of crows being canceled you get a couple of friends in your animation class and jump in the deep end to make a fan made 3-D animated movie/collection of scenes…

So I did that and so far it’s been interesting. I’ll post updates as we go. The next thing will probably be concept art.

This was a choice…

Mercher: Is it true you used to run with the Barrel gangs?

Jesper: No. I mostly walked at a leisurely pace.

Second post about AUs:

Is it just me or did the author of Shadow and Bone, just pick a completely random real world location to adapt her story from? It’s supposed to take place in some alternate version of Russia, but there’s hardly anything Russian about it other than the ethnic descriptions for the characters, but only in the books… there’s some vague political and cultural parallels but it’s so bad that the author didn’t even bother to research something so simple such as Slavic naming conventions… it should be Alina Starkova NOT Starkov. Barely any of the show characters are even Eastern European. I know there’s a Bulgarian actor, but literally everyone else is British, American, and just incredibly racially diverse for no reason at all. I don’t even remember if this school or military training program that Alina and co are in is an international school/organization or whatever, but it literally makes no sense that there’s barely any real Russian or Slavic representation at all, and that it looks more like an urban American population than that of any Eastern European nation. I get the six of crow aren’t tied to any one specific country, so I’m not talking about that. Just the fact that it’s really sad and makes me angry that east euros get really bad and inaccurate representation or we’re just seen as criminals and mafia, nothing more. We should do more to represent ourselves in media and not rely on some ignorant American media company to “represent” us, but regardless, it still pisses me off. Like why even pick countries like ours if the majority of westerners do not even give a rat’s ass about us or deliberately hate us and spread anti Slavic nonsense.

People like what they like, but it just makes me sad that Hollywood has all this money and shit, but they don’t even bother to do proper research about a culture, and on top of that make pointless diversity hires and call it representation while also completely misrepresenting the people that this series is supposed to show in the first place. Hollywood isn’t the only thing at fault here too. Ignorant people like the author who just don’t do any research. I’m so so tired of it. We’re not asking you to try to represent us, literally not a soul is asking the west to represent us but if you do it, have the decency to do it in a respectful manner…

At least with ASOIAF, Martin stayed grounded to what he understands of history. Yes, I genuinely believe the north could be seen as Eastern European, combined with some Celtic ( Scottish) inspirations, but Martin leaves it generally open for the viewer to understand that Westeros is based off of Europe in a more generic but still incredibly relatable way without offending any ethnic group from Europe. Dorne could be seen as Spanish specifically during the Arab invasions, but it’s honestly its own thing, the characters don’t even have Spanish or Arab names. Their clothes aren’t really even described as typical to Spanish or North African cultures. They just have vague surface level similarities, unlike the world of shadow and bone which seems to rely too much on the REAL Russia as a inspiration while at the same time just being incredibly inaccurate which sounds ridiculous and ironic but it’s true. Shadow and bone is nothing but a failed attempt of an alternate reality.

we’ll be here when the world slows down

- is the second fic I wrote for the reverse minibang 2022 by @grishaversebigbang :) read it [here]

We all need a bit of the crows just having a good time, chilling on the rietveld farm, having a slice of applepie.

It’s based on the awesome artwork by @sunshinesartisticquirk [link will follow] as well as there is another lovely fic by @courage-dont-desert-me read it [here] on ao3!

“The goats are evil”, Jesper declared out of breath as he rounded the corner of the worn down farmhouse. He was followed by a slightly ruffled looking Wylan who was holding a bucket that had previously been filled with goat-food. Kaz looked up from his rather comfortable place on one of the chairs they had dragged outside to sit in the afternoon-sun. “You are the one who has been gushing over their kids the whole time”, Mathias answered drowsily from the bench next to Kaz’ chair, where he sat wrapped in Nina scarf. Jesper pushed to sit next to him and Wylan chugged the bucket in a corner. Before taking the other chair, no longer occupied by Kuwei. Who had been dozing away on a patch of grass a few steps away and now sat up, his hair a ruffled bed-head. “The babies are obviously not the problem man,” Jesper brushed dirt from his pants: “- but I am telling you, there is something corrupting them when they grow up.” Kaz didn’t hide his snort: “Hunger?” “This coming from an expert in corruption”, Mathias groaned and rolled his eyes.

my sab predictions literally from the soundtrack

lmk if anyone has any ideas and ill add them some of these i have no clue

on the run- mal and alina obv

market chase- this HAS to be that scene from the trailer with the crows also it sounds so fun

tolya and tamar- a bit self-explanitory

wylan- the official clip we got of him

come sail away- nicolai? my b sturmound

brother- kaz flashback in the water we saw AHHHHH NO

arriving at the island- this could be the crows or the sab squad the crows wouldnt make as much sense tho

crows ambushed- i feel like this is pekka theres like this dark turn in the middle of the track like someones shown up

return of the useless grunt- this one confuses me i dont think its matthias like people are saying because matthias fights is after idk

im here for the killers- darkling fight vibes

matthias fights- hellgate, pretty simple

the night we met- someone said this is kanej flashback/dream sequence (see what amita said about how we'll get to see them do something they'll never get to do) and I soooo agree it sounds so them (OR nina and matthias is also possible)

become the blade- mal/malina babe and his awful tatoo

jespers past- SO SAD ITS GOING TO KILL ME

hope is dangerous- this is what kaz says to inej while she’s looking for her parents names on the wall in season one 👀

shu han- ok so this can go one of two ways, one: inej and zoya in the desert/jurda parem OR something else i just dont know if theyre going to do that plotline

the disciple- tolya/tamar/the apparat

i cant lose you- malina malian babe

deserve her- darkling vibes

chased- the one scene where everyone is in front of the chapel and jes is protecting wylan

battle at the moat- more of the same ^ ???

stronger than an emerald- someone said the lantsov emerald but its a really dark track so im thinking pekka rollins (the emerald prince)

we can do this- ???

final goodbye- maybe i dont want to know. if theyre doing sas + rar itll be alina dipping or even if they arent its the sab squad and crows separating. i hope. im scared of this one.

let me be your monster- make me your villain

loss and sacrifice- ???

hope for the future- YALL I FIGURED IT THIS PLAYS DURING THE DARKLINA MAKEOUT SESH IN SEASON ONE OMG it sounds a lot darker tho um a lot less hopeful

I feel like so many problems people have with tv at the moment could be solved if we just went back to the good ole days of 20 episodes a season that’s just sixty percent filler and character development. Give the people what they want- less condensed story and more meaningless shenanigans

[hannahlily]

Just thought I’d drop this here

[liveandbreathemusicals]

Gay people will be like “this is my comfort show!” And then show you the most emotionally devastating, stress-inducing, tragic piece of media you have ever witnessed

[she-posts-nerdy-stuff]

Just opened my fic document and found this

Thanks, past me. Incredibly helpful.

it really is insane to me how in the mid 2010s netflix had a reputation of making cool, inclusive series as well as saving tv shows after their networks cancelled them, and now here we are today with every halfway decent netflix original show getting cancelled after 1-2 seasons and a bajillion episodes of bigmouth
