#soa rewatch

[etclouie-rambles]

i will never ever get over chibs finding sack’s body in jax’s kitchen

that man lost his son and you cannot change my mind on it

[belovedbastardremus]

so... i'm rewatching soa

And what the fuck is up with how the guys treat Juice... Like I've heard people talk about how he kinda stayed a prospect before. But it never really hit me until I rewatched, and I don't like it. I might be taking it too seriously but I don't think it's fair, like, he does everything he can for the club but they still act like he's not really one of them, at least in the earlier seasons. Then there's season 4 in which he get closer to Chibs and we finally see him be cared for by one of his brothers. But aftet that and the betrayal, I feel like the way he's handled truly resembles a kid who fucked up and not someone who was trapped and made a bad decisions. We can really see it in the way Jax handles both Tig and Juice's betrayals. He resents Tig but ultimately saves him, even though we suspect he didn't originally want to. But with Juice, he immediatly gives him up, it's weird, like he doesn't care for him and is more angry about the fact that he strayed from his authority than about the fact that he hurt the club. I just don't think Jax would have accepted that another brother be given the same treatement Juice got in prison, even for the same crime against the club. And it pains me to see that such a deep, sensible character was so easily given up on, it badly reflects the club's attachment to brotherhood and mutual care.

yea john the revelator scene still brain altering

[super-marvel-dc]

Y/N: What's the scariest horror movie you've ever watched?

Chibs: IT.

Tig: Annabelle.

Jax: Paranormal Activity.

Juice: High School Musical. All throughout high school I was scared that everyone was gonna randomly get up and start singing and dancing, and I would be the only one who doesn't know the words.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I said this months ago and I’ll say it again.

JJK 236 spoilers below.

I knew he would die. Between the Geto parallels, and the whole narrative of Gojo wanting his students to surpass him and make a better jujutsu world or whatever, and Gege’s straight up hatred of the character, and the juxtaposition of a super uplifting scene (him winning) with an impending black moment—I get it. I knew he would die. The signs were all there.

But just like I said a few months ago, I think this is boring.

The whole manga hypes up how strong Gojo is and talks about how his birth literally changed the world. Then this hyped up character gets sealed for like 100+ chapters. Then he gets out, is still hyped up, fights, and then… dies.

Like I’m a lil bored? Or maybe I’m just not being hit with a heavy emotional punch from this?

I mean, what the actual hell is the point of having a character THAT important/powerful just to off them? I know he’s just beaten an unbeatable enemy but idk. I feel like I’m missing an important emotional moment. (Which is entirely possible because these are just leaks and I haven’t read the full chapter)

For example, Gojo never has an emotional struggle with fighting Sukuna despite him wearing Megumi’s body. There doesn’t seem to be a moment of the mentor passing the torch to the student the way there was one with Nanami and Yuji. Jesus, he doesn’t even get to confront the monster who is in Geto’s body one final time.

I stand by my original idea. Instead of just killing him for the sake of getting rid of him, why not do something more meaningful? Why not take his eyes? Take away the only thing that makes Satoru Gojo special and make him be just like everybody else. Make him live in a world where he is essentially nobody, where he’s unimportant. Make him grapple with that.

And if you’re going to kill him then why not make it more interesting and have him completely fail? Why not make him fail so spectacularly that in his dying breath he realizes that being the strongest meant nothing because he couldn’t protect his students or anyone else he cared about?

I just hate seeing such interesting characters wasted like that. Of course, I’m sure there are people who will disagree SO HARD with me that I’ll get pissed off DMs about it. But that’s how I feel. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Or maybe I’m totally wrong and when I read the full chapter I’ll be blown away by the emotional payoff (assuming it isn’t just through a fucking flashback). Maybe I’ll read the full chapter and love the death.

I fucking doubt it tho lmao.

[embodies]

send me 💬, and i’ll use a line from a sentence meme i’ve reblogged to make a starter. @mayhemr.

❛ so, what ? we just sit here with our thumbs up our ass ? ❜ his boldness comes out in flashes, like lightning splitting an unruly and otherwise placid sky. it can take people aback, the shock of an idle wallflower growing thorns, biting back. resilience comes with time, with loss. he's not stupid enough to believe he's the only one to have gone through it, recognises the battle scars in the man housing him. life leached from the eyes, stance guarded but weary, voice eroded and sandpaper - rough. doesn't quite wonder for the biker's plight, but understands it. ❛ these guys— they'll kill you all, y'know that ? whatever he's payin' you is like loose change to these freaks. an' if you've got happy family back home, they'll take that too. we've got to do something. ❜

[minnow-doodle-doo]

your soa au is whats going to finally convince me to watch the show (i do love tragedy, found family and generational curses).

quick question, where does clark fit into this au?

Okay don't get your hopes up, the show kinda sucks. BUT, to give credit where it's due, You can really tell these guys love each other like they'll hug and kiss each other on the cheek, and are still very masculine.

And the generational curses here are really good and ends so nicely, I don't wanna spoil but damn they are really paying for their forefathers' sins.

There is so much tragedy in the show, not to spoil but almost everyone is dead or in a bad place.

Clark in this AU, is a reporter and one of the founding members of the Justice League with Bruce and Diana. They all met abroad and then came back to the US to start the club. He's just a good guy who wants the world to be a better place :)

[criticallyacclaimedstranger]

Tell me of your favourite gratuitous violence tv shows and movies, please? I need something to calm my nerves after work this afternoon, especially now that we're not getting any tlou in a while.

No horror. No super intrinsic plots and politics and shit like that. I just want to watch someone (preferably good-looking) kill and maim for selfish reasons that make total sense to me.

[ninawolv3rina]

The problem with Sons of Anarchy over, say, Lost, is that when I start rewatching a show I enjoyed to its fullest and unironically I start to remember the entire plot down to the minute detail and it's no longer fun to rewarch. But SOA is just bad enough that rewatching it has been much like watching it for the first time. And of course I'm having a great time but something about this,,, it vexes me

[sad-trash-hobo]

I really hate that the Irish use Jax. The whole season, they use his son to get what they need. But the worst part us when fucking Maureen puts John Tellers letters in Jaxs bag and Tara finds them. If she hadn't done that then Tara wouldn't have known Clay killed JT and wouldn't have been in harms way, she wouldn't have been nearly kidnapped and had her hand broken. She would have stayed a bit happier and not turned against Gemma and probably wouldn't have fucking died. This whole show. I hate this show.

[metalbuckaroo]

Why did Tara have to destroy Abel’s room bc Jax told her they shouldn’t have continued being together?

Tf did the baby do?

[rebelwrites]

I’m rewatching SOA because every time I go upstairs to do eBay our foster puppy tries to eat EVERYTHING!! So I’m making Dinos and binging SOA again.

I FORGOT THE CHILLS I GET WATCHING THE END OF SEASON FOUR LIKE OH MY FUCKING GOD WATCHING JAX BECOME PRESIDENT MAKES THE HAIRS ON THE BACK OF MT NECK STAND TO ATTENTION PAIR THAT WITH THIS SONG

[crowsandmurder]

Stahl getting killed though, will always be a HIGHLIGHT.

I don't care that she was a woman. Bitch deserved it.

[charmingkat]

// At my mom's and so I am messing with my sisters algorithm by starting a re-watch.

[zalrb]

Remember that time Jax picked up a random woman at the side of the road and then left her at a brothel?
