It's Tremors propaganda hours baby
Just finished and it was EXACTLY as fun as I remembered
Buddy movie/monster flicks for the win
Sucker-punching each other so they can Do The Crazy Thing First is their love language
ALSO: Practical effects my beloved. The monsters look SO REAL. Yep, that is a Horror eating a man and they shoved him inside it for the shot. Love that for them.
In case you've never seen it, Tremors (the first, original one!) is currently free to view on YouTube!
youtube
It's one of my favorite movies, and it spawned a bunch of very ridiculous, cheesy sequels that I also love. But the first one had a good heart, a solid Creature movie from back in the day.
If you're unfamiliar with what Tremors is, the basic plot is that there's a small "town" (of like 12 people) in the middle of a desert area surrounded by mountains on all sides. The pass out of the sand bowl gets blocked and everyone is trapped inside when large, underground Creatures start eating people and they have to figure out how to survive long enough to get out or be rescued. There's more to it but I don't want to ruin the surprise of what they find out about the creatures!

I just wanted to pop in here to say thanks for making Buck the way he is. He speaks to the “overly apologetic but a little freak(affectionate)” and “grandpa with hyper-specific interests” parts of my soul. I hope I can have a partner as good as Davey one day, you have raised the bar for me. I can’t wait for Villain Coded to be a comic, because I’m already having a great time thinking about the stuff we already have.
WAH.... THANK YOU... here's to love for all our gay little special interest freak soldiers out there. may you all be loved for exactly as you are...!!

Okay, I think I can finally share this now.
In my version of "Moriah" Chuck orders Jack to kill Castiel with the promise of bringing things back to how they were before all the mess they're in now, Mary included. Jack starts panicking and crying and is clearly being played but he's in no state to rationalize things so he starts blurting out all kinds of stuff and eventually resolves to actually do it. Sam and Dean are forced to watch by Chuck and are totally incapacitated just like us, hypothetical viewers, are made to watch Jack's tragedy as it unfolds.
But Castiel is okay with that and actually plans to do the deed himself in order to avoid at least this one pain in Jack's life so he comes close to Jack and holds his face in one hand while the other is ready for the blade. He needs to tell him one last thing before the end. They're both crying but somehow Cas find the courage to recite a different type of blessing over the children, one that of course doesn't involve God and it goes something like this:
Jack, don't cry. It's okay, it's okay.
I need to tell you something, Jack and I need you to listen carefully, okay? Okay, good.
Being elected as your father has been the greatest joy and honor of my life. Hey, it's okay, shhh, it's okay, listen to me.
It was a joy so great that I got scared, Jack. I'm sorry Jack but I got so scared. I didn't know it then but it was this gnawing fear of losing it all, of losing you, that made me make... many mistakes. It was this fear that prevented me from understanding who you really are, from seeing the truth. So here it is.
Jack, you were, are and always will be such a luminous, beautiful and important presence in this world. Ah, as a matter of fact, in any world. Because you're... you. And you are... amazing.
No, no, no listen to me now, please, shhh, it's okay: You have to know that whatever happens in your life, I will be there for you. No matter what, I will be by your side. If things will go wrong, I'll be there to give you my energy. If things will go right, I'll also be there to give you even more energy.
You must never forget that you're loved, Jack. Oh, look at you: my son...my son... I love you. So much.
Cas, in an instant, is ready with his angel blade but it's in this moment that the Shadow erupts into the world to take Castiel away: no reasoning, no strategic plan, nothing. The moment of happiness is the moment of unconditional love.
Chuck's frantic because this "unconditional love" thing wasn't in his script and yells that it was not supposed to happen this way, that he gave them the possibility to access everything they ever wanted, the price was just one self-loathing, doomed-anyway angel but it still wasn't enough for them, was it?
It's also the moment where Sam, briefly freed from Chuck's powers, gets his lucidity back and decides to pull the trigger on Chuck (and himself). In the background, Jack's screaming and crying so much that the mere force of his screams is enough to resurrect the whole cemetery but Cas is not coming back to him.
Chuck is wounded by Sam (who's also hurting in return) and is forced to flee. Dean is also wounded beyond repair and is like turned to stone and almost can't breathe because he's living, again, one of the worst moments of his life as we go back to a distorted, more messed-up version of s12 finale and to the beginning of Jack's tragic story.
Jack is spiralling and he's out of control and out of himself as he starts opening woundsrifts after rifts through dimensions and worlds looking for Chuck, looking for the Empty, looking for whatever comes first at this point because he's moved by the dangerous, unpredictable and explosive bomb that is revenge spurred by love. Until Billie finds him.

while i am OF COURSE sympathetic to time and budget restraints (this is why we’ve offered little critique on the pacing (even though it was atrocious)) our biggest critiques of the season were overarching decisions that were made, not their individual executions. writing tucker and sigma like that is not a budget issue. having the reds and blues act like they don’t know each other would not be fixed if there was more time.

Looking back I might’ve misinterpreted this. At first I thought Charlie ate the meatballs frozen, rereading this I think Maverick meant frozen meatballs out of the freezer section that she cooked… I still like my original thoughts better

I think one of the funniest things about the Arcane writing team is that seemingly specifically because they didn't intend to write Viktor and Jayce as romantic they accidentally developed one of the most interesting and moving queer dynamics on television, and specifically because they were so into Caitlyn and Vi they completely forgot and failed to develop literally any chemistry between them at all before we were supposed to believe they had a thing going on beyond vague interest.
#arcane#as a writer i see exactly how this happened - you were too into it and skipped all the necessary steps to get to the meat of it but it was#way too premature to be at all interesting#whereas because they weren't distracted viktor and jayce are fully realized and developed#dont get me wrong i WANTED to like caitlyn and vi really badly#caitlyn and vi's shared portraits in league have a chemistry arcane cannot seem to get their hands on#i simply do not believe they like each other nearly as much as this script expected me to#they did the work to develop a sociopolitical interest in each other with a spark of attraction#and then they just completely dropped every single thing in between that and writing them as if they're married#i would've believed a developing situationship throughout s2 where they got together towards the end with the same prison cell scene#way more than a completely offscreen relationship then breakup & makeup#they simply weren't distracted with viktor and jayce and accidentally made their partnership basically the center of this universe#developing them as strong separate characters with deep flaws and the only thing that makes up for those flaws is each other...like???#i WISH caitlyn and vi had been that neatly character driven - the structure they set up to do it was right there!!#they couldn't focus on developing character to fill in the structure!! so they turned into a hollow plot-driven husk of a relationship#it just sticks out really sorely in an otherwise super solid character driven show and it's such an easy fix just give them more TIME#not even more screen time- literally just wait to establish them as a couple until the prison scene to give them time to cook#they're about to make the same exact mistake with jinx and ekko i can feel it

girl the media is bad. you just enjoy fanfiction tropes
#this is about both booktok romantasy and the acolyte#the acolyte could have been good. but you can literally watch in real time the places where a solid script got absolutely BUTCHERED#by some exec room going 'can you add a cool obscure lightsaber?? can you add some comic relief??'#in a way that really and truly undercut what the show was going for so bad that it made the entire story feel goofy in a bad way#like. you can't have your redemption arc gray villain have a slapstick practical effects moment in the same episode you show jedi corpses#you can't introduce an alien to make a point about neutral pronouns and then have it be a dehumanized joke that runs around#and all of these things ultimately did compound to ruin the pacing and tone in a way that made the main storyline/mystery just like.#something that could have taken half the episodes but instead forced you to sit through these awkward fanservice moments no one asked for#because it does in fact undercut anything you have to say about responsibility and violence and allegiance#by showing one of your jedi mercilessly cut a big bird in half with a whip lightsaber that she NEVER USES IN ACTUAL COMBAT#like the actors ABSOLUTELY got fucked over the writers ABSOLUTELY got fucked over.#they ended up in a very vulnerable position paired with a very bad show. and ultimately. at the end of the day#there's nothing that can be done now to make the show as it exists be... good#(oh. I didn't expect to rant. well also uhhh lightlark is bad. there you go)

the downfall and execution of a tudor queen (2023) / the boleyns: a scandalous family (2021) / the king's pearl: henry viii and his daughter mary (2017), melita thomas / anne boleyn (tv miniseries 2021) / the mirror and the light (2024) / elizabeth (1998)
#web weaving#sort of?#i never feel like my edits really fit#they're more like collages#anyway...me on my island with the one other tudor fan that liked AB 2021 lol#'our expectations were low but holy fuck' sounds like a lot of consternation about a pretty...solid script?#what i loved most about it was moments like the above#the ability to summarize really complex dynamics borne of circumstance#in such a way that you can believe in the world and it serves as its own 'previously on' that a miniseries inherently lacks#esp when it only covers five crucial months#tl; dr there's a lot of smugness evident in many books of this genre#when it comes to anne's attitude towards her stepdaughter#bcus she was quote proven wrong unquote; becaues mary got quote the last laugh unquote...#when really. as per the quotes i've been posting#it doesn't seem like mary's reconciliation with her father was the idyll many have made it#thus we have anne's letter#and offer. knowing that others are offering her better futures#but saying this is the best future you could have. limited time only.#and it seems the future proved her right; not wrong (at least the immediate future)#bcs while matters; had she accepted; might not've been substantially better than they were under the auspices of a 'more gentle' stepmother#it also doesn't really seem like they would have been substantially worse#anne was right that her enemy's supporters wanted her disgraced and/or dead. she was right in that they wanted elizabeth disgraced#and/or dead. she couldn't have predicted what happened to herself in the exact matter it did- mainly bcus it was unprecedented#but it seems she had a pretty clear view of what mary was doing: playing both sides. attempting to ingratiate herself to her father while#also conspiring against him. and she knew it would have been better to have her on side#(and in a more jaundiced view: have her where she could watch what she was doing; who she was seeing)#but perhaps underestimated how impossible it would be to get her there in the first place#('on side' ; that is. not at court. although probably not that either. with the conditions she demanded)#but her fears of mary were not paranoia. they seem to have been grounded in realism#and a clear view of the situation at home and abroad

No, you know what, Jack’s temper is part of his color and I will love it forever.
Blue Boys (and beauties) are notoriously calm and rational (most of the time.) But they have this really neat trick: when they’re done they’re all the way fucking done and they fully believe they’re rational even when they’re not. Especially if they feel betrayed because loyalty is a core value they hold, doesn’t matter why at this point. Especially because 9/10 it’s less that they were betrayed and more that they let someone past their walls and were let down. It’s the I trusted you. It’s the I believed you.
When the get to the end of their rope, they say some of the wildest, meanest fucking things you have ever heard another person say and they have what they feel are the receipts to back it up. And sometimes it looks like a double standard, because Blue Boys and Beauties will do some shady ass shit and lie about it (or at least omit it) but it’s only because what they say to others is only a fraction of the shit they say to themselves internally. Half of what they refuse to talk about is their own shame, always remember that.
And it makes sense. Blue is the color of the hottest flame. It’s the color of ice that is so cold and so condensed that there is no oxygen bubbles left in it. They will burn you through flames or frost. Now eventually they’ll either cool or thaw until they’re water, back to their general equanimity.
But…no, it’s entirely fitting with his color. And the colors mean things.
Signed,
A Blue Boy/Beauty Defender since X-Men TAS

I've been trying to write a script for an audio roleplay series I wanted to record, with this guy being one of the main speakers but I ended up scrapping the idea unfortunately since the story wasn't really adding up the more I wrote. But! I still wanted to show him off since as a character I think he's a silly fella and I'm still proud of how he turned out.
His name is Greystin, he's an aussie boy that's made plenty of questionable decisions in his life and has a knack with working with planes and cars. Very charismatic with a streak of getting away from the police whether that be through smooth talking his way outta it or being too slippery for the cops to get him. Greys got a big ego to match his stubbornness, but one thing is for sure is he's the ride or die type of friend with a fierce sense of loyalty to those who stick around.
He's a stubborn lil asshole and I love him to bits!
I'm sad I ended up scrapping the original script with him in it since I was working on it for a month, but I'll put him in the box to recycle him in the future. That is if I can find someone willing to voice him that is. ^^;
If you wanna see an extra drawing I did of him, you can check down below! Suggestive warning? He is shirtless with shorts on so take that as you will lol.

One day Grey, one day you will get your time to shineee.. 😭

Honestly, I've never seen anything that walks the line of my sexuality quite like Mads Mikkelsen butt ass naked and balls deep in a snow bank while wielding a sniper rifle
