#someone take this movie away from me

More random Nimona headcanons

Bal is one of those people who isn’t allergic to anything except one random medication that no one uses 

Ambrosius calls him a lucky bastard every time it’s brought up because he’s allergic to everything 

His allergy list is at least three pages long and he doesn’t remember a single thing on that list 

Whenever they go out to eat Bal has to remind him “No you can’t eat that it has olives” “Not that either love it’s got lemon” and so on 

Most of his allergic reactions are pretty tame so he’ll eat it anyway

And it gives Bal and Nimona so much fucking anxiety 

One time Bal walked in on Nimona chasing Ambrosius around the kitchen yelling “Spit out the carrots Nemesis you don’t even like them that much!!” 

Whenever he eats alone he refers to it as a game of Russian roulette 

Bal refers to it as the reason he has high blood pressure

Because Bal and Ambrosius grew up in the limelight (for very different reasons) there are a million pictures of them through the years 

And they use those videos to bully the hell out of each other 

Bal can quote the video from the beginning of the movie not because it was an important moment in his childhood 

But because Ambrosius will quote it at the most random times throughout the day

Bal will do something small like kill a bug or chase out an animal that Nimona brought in

And he’ll hear Ambrosius mumble “I’m here to slay monsters and protect our kingdom”

He was a little worried Nimona would react badly to this habit but he started joining in 

One time he killed a spider and Ambrosius asks “Are you slaying monsters moonbeam?” Nimona yells from the other room “I’m so proud of him he’s truly protecting our kingdom” 

There are a million photos of baby Ambrosius on the internet 

And Bal made a PowerPoint presentation ranking their cuteness factor out of 10 (100 was the lowest score he got and it was a picture of him with the ugliest bowl cut you’ve ever seen)

And made Ambrosius sit through it 

That was the most loved and mortified he had felt in a long time

Nimona uses low-quality pictures of them as reaction photos 

There have been times when Nimona asks “Can we eat out tonight” and Bal tells her no and she sends him this 

He’ll text back “Is that my fucking wanted poster?!” 

She asked Ambrosius if there was any ice cream left and he said no he expected her to call him and complain he didn’t expect this 

He calls her yelling “When the fuck did that happen?!” 

And she hangs up immediately to let Bal deal with it

At Thraex's party, Caracalla is wearing red and gold

Atrocious quality sorry, but there you can really see the pattern on his outfit (while he stumbles around off his ass)

We see him in red and gold again at the games:

At the second round of games though, it's Geta that wears red and gold:

And that's when, imo, Geta is seen to be at his most out of control, rocking in his seat and rubbing at his mouth (gums?). He's hyper focused on Lucius during the games as well.

And of course, there's the night scene:

Where he's wearing red and gold again. And Caracalla definitely comes off worse, but Geta is also out of control here too. He's been ripped out of bed, and as its been pointed out, he literally has to hold his robe closed as he deals with a massive betrayal.

They both get two red and gold outfits. Showing Geta in the colours we come to know Caracalla in is reserved for when he's most like Caracalla. Losing his shit, out of control, and inebriated.

I've had a vague urge to get more into Shakespeare for years; what are the top 3-5 plays you'd recommend that AREN'T Hamlet or Much Ado? And what version of each is your favorite?

(sorry for omitting two god tier ones but I've already seen David Tennant in each of those and I surmise that you're insane about both so I'm looking for some new plays)

gonna be some basic bitch answers but here:

macbeth - the tragedy of macbeth (2021) movie adaptation starring denzel washington. this movie is fucking stunning and the way they did the witches was SO good. also i have the throne of blood (kurosawa's adaptation) also on my watchlist since i've heard REALLY good things about it

richard ii - 2013 rsc production w/ david tennant (link). he gives me catastrophic gender envy, i need to become more masculine to become more feminine etc. ben whishaw in the hollow crown series (link) is great too

romeo and juliet - romeo + juliet (1996) movie adaptation directed by baz luhrmann. this is like, the most well known romeo and juliet and you might've watched it already but i'm listing this anyway because there will never be a better mercutio and the way they did the setting is SO fucking funny and inspired

twelfth night - so far only saw this one Outside On The Grass Where They Performed This At My College but i liked it a lot... reccing the 2012 globe production with mark rylance (part 1 / part 2) (his hamlet was one of dt's favorites as an aspiring actor) (i'm putting my faith in letterboxd and david's taste for this one)

coriolanus - 2014 donmar production w/ tom hiddleston (on archive.org). this is directed by josie rourke, who also directed dt/ct's 2011 much ado! the staging and the effects are fucking awesomeeee (also peter de jersey and elliot levey are in this, i love them)

also shoutout to the ones i want to watch:

the 2016 production of a midsummer night's dream w/ ncuti gatwa (i have found nowhere to pirate it and i might just crack and pay the 10 dollars to watch it)

the 2015 production of the love's labour's lost w/ edward bennett (he played laertes in hamlet (2009) and he's REALLY underrated, i love his benedick SO FUCKING MUCH even if that production overall was a little dull)

either hollow crown's or greg doran's henry iv (it's two whole plays i need so much time to watch that. and ideally i want to watch both lol)

kurosawa's ran (1985), an adaptation of king lear set in 1500s japan

vishal bhardwaj's omkara (2006), an adaptation of othello set in india

tw: religion

the cross necklace is really such a cornerstone and is so subtle but does such a good job of reminding us of everyone's placement (not ranking) and order in the operation.

the first time we see tashi, she's wearing the cross- an indication that patrick, being an early bloomer, wanted and had her first. and art's interest in women is based on patrick's interest initially (girl from boarding school, tashi). art only likes tashi after seeing her through patrick's eyes of desire. she is but a tool the father uses to teach the son and ultimately transform the son.

from the holy trinity perspective, patrick is the father as he does the most foreshadowing/planning (going on to be a no name player, not tashi's lapdog, grandma's stroke). art is the son, but tashi is the holy spirit, her role being to empower and guide the son for the work the father has planned for and taught him to do. and art, the poor son, is fully obedient to patrick but he is also forsaken by him when he wins tashi's number and when patrick aims to place himself above art ("not a lapdog and sit around and let you punish me") which is exactly what he fights with tashi about when she does it to him in the dorm. in another vein, art is absolutely a version of judas but another post for another day.

her cross necklace is also the key we need to understand why art views her as jesus. not filled with unconditional love like a mother and not naively loving like a nun. she's the one who had their career executed and crucified before a sea of onlookers despite her being the only one of the three with pure passion, talent, and commitment. as the person with true spirit when she played, she only "rises" from her injury/death later by coaching her husband and transforming him into a star player. but patrick was right- he isn't her student but her equal. within their holy trinity, the three are equal parts of a whole with different roles.

if patrick as the father is the planner (going pro early) and art is the son who accomplishes the plan set by the father (to go pro and actually be good), then tashi is the holy spirit and is the path of salvation in how she convinces, convicts, and ultimately, converts "good" players into "great". in a way, her cross necklace tells us what becomes of her- once a planner, then an executor, to finally, a guider and force to reach the promised land.

tldr: this movie is the adult version of veggie tales tbh

5 times. As of today, I've read Project Hail Mary 5 times, and each time, I've happy-cried at the ending.

It's one of those endings that really makes me feel emotional. After a lifetime of fear, fear of being rejected and fear of dying, Ryland Grace makes the decision to sacrifice his life to save his best friend. He had the option to turn around and go back to Earth; nobody would have known. He could have lied about everything, and lived his life as a hero back home. But it was his love for Rocky, his best friend, that made him face the fears that always controlled him and turn the ship around.

Then, he lives quite a number of years on Erid. The high gravity deteriorates his bones, and likely shortens his lifespan by a lot, but he stays. He had the option to leave safely years prior, but he chooses to stay. Even after finding out that humanity survived and Sol has returned to full luminance, he still isn't sure about leaving. Maybe he will one day, but not right now. Because he has people he cares about, and Erid may not be where he's from, but he sure as hell made it his home.

I'm going to sob again. If they change this ending in the movie, I'm going to STORM out of the theatre and never look back.
