“One day it won’t be like this anymore, we’re getting stronger. Things will change.”

“Might be quicker than we think. Heard the lads whisperin’ on their way out about some craic they heard from up on high.”

“A mutiny?”

“Nah, better. A tournament.”

Hey hey I just wrote the third chapter of my fanfic you should read it

I attempted to write it in a way where even if you haven't read any of the Redwall books you can still enjoy it

Its just a bunch of rodents with funny names committing horrible acts of violence against other rodents with funny names

Its really very whimsical

Wednesday Review

I was actually kind of excited for this because I think the original Addams Family is pretty creative as well as Values and focusing on Wednesday in modern times seems like a decent idea especially if Tim Burton is handling it. Time came and they said that this was going to be a series instead of a movie, ok, that's fine.

I watched a little bit of the first episode and it was rough, it felt like a Disney Channel version, whether it was intentional or the writing or the acting/casting choices, it all seemed to follow that borderline generic Hallmark vibe (from Wednesday's visions looking right up at the ceiling, Pugsley getting bullied, "Sheriff, you're going to want to see this." corny dialogue.) so I turned it off and just moved on...then it blew up. (Well, Jenna Ortega did anyway) but my dad watched it, my sister watched it and everybody she knew watched it and I was kind of left out of the loop. My dad said that it was good but in the old one, Wednesday was always known for her deadpan deliveries while in this one it felt more forced more often and I immediately got what he meant when I revisited it.

I wouldn't call it good but entertaining. Now one thing that bothers me is the lipstick, yes, I know, picky, but did someone else do it? Because it's frequently that I see someone where it goes past their lips, either over or under, am I the only one who noticed that? I can't say I've ever noticed it in a movie or show before but for some reason...There's a part where they're eating apple crisps but Gomez puts it to his mouth, makes a delightful face and puts his hand in the bowl to take some more but it's clear that he takes it out of his mouth and didn't bite at all, they just added a crunch sound effect in post.

People wait for their next line cue so when they say something that isn't an edgy joke or plot progression then it sticks out and makes me think "Character development?" but no, it's only there to tease something later on. A lot of times it'll be for a character that we're introduced to and then never see again until episodes later when that line becomes relevant. There are a lot of little moments like this but it wasn't because of amateurism and are too stupid to be budget reason.

I said Tim Burton, didn't I? Well, that's true...partly, he didn't write any of it, the writing credits vary by episode like any other show and he only directed 4 episodes (half) and he's not the "creator" either, they just slap his name on it as producer. No, Miles Millar and Alfred Gough are the creators. Who are they?

SUM-BODY SAAAAAAVVVVVEEEEE MEEEEE!! That's right, the creators of Smallville.

Is this more for a new gen or old one? I feel like anybody for anything will try to tell you that their version, their reboot, is going to make both fans and newcomers happy, there really shouldn't be a reason not to (though Rocketeer is arguable). This one is kind of torn because Wednesday is a little bit older and there are references to older material but it has the newer generations to back it up and take place in our modern age. I wouldn't really know who it's aimed at but I'm going to lean towards "newer"

I get having it revolve around a mystery and have Wednesday play the detective but I can't help but feel it'd be better suited to a Hardy Boys or Nancy Drew type reboot.

liking someone platonically is so embarrassing like. yeah i admire you. yeah i think about you all the time. yeah i look forward to every time i see you even if it's only for a minute. yeah it's all platonic and yeah i couldn't explain this because it'd sound romantic. fucking hell

"I had choice paralysis :(" is a KILLER line.

He's such a comedic powerhouse, I'm glad more people are getting exposed to him :'D

[mythology-void]

see though. the thing is. me being pretty and flirting with a guy can absolutely make him feel entitled to me and my body. but the fact that he finds me attractive doesn't mean i OWE it to him to find him attractive. you're acting like I'm choosing not to be interested, when in reality i can't and won't force myself to pretend to be attracted to someone I'm not interested in just because they'll be upset i don't reciprocate their feelings. I'm not 'leading him on'--he's just refusing to process his emotions like an adult and treating me like im maliciously choosing not to be into him

academic bias is so funny because you’ll be reading about the same historical event and one person is like “Despite the troubles that befell his homeland and near constant criticism of the court King Blorbo remained strong in the face of adversity” and the other one is like “after letting his people carry the brunt of his cringefail decisions Blorbo the Shitface refused to listen to any reason and continued to be a warmongering piece of shit. Also he was ugly.”
