Most anticipated films of 2017: the second half of the year

I was going to make this post earlier this year, but never had enough time or energy to make it happen. So here it is, a mid-year mashup of most anticipated 2017 films.

Dunkirk

Tbh I never heard of the Dunkirk operation before, and from the looks of it, it seems quite a big deal for the Western countries. I’m always curious to see the depiction of WWII from different sides, and while I’m aware to expect a certain dose of heroic patriotism and flattering to the side making the film and making it as heroes by the end of it (I have a feeling it’s gonna be okay at the end), Dunkirk would be at least interesting to see for that very reason. Besides, Dunkirk promises to be an epic WWII tale, set on ocean shores (water aesthetic! I love all things water ok), that, I suppose, would be accompanied by an epic score and some next level cinematography and production from Christopher Nolan? Getting a ticket today.

Valerian and a City of a Thousand Planets

A fantasy tale set among the stars? From Luke Besson? (Ok he did have some good stuff.) With one of the first comic book female action figures that were actually decently written? Let’s say I heard not to stellar reviews, but I’d like to see it on my own before forming a conclusive opinion. Getting a ticket soon.

(I know these first two are out already, but I haven’t seen them yet, so they are still on the anticipated list for the next few days.)

The Shape of Water

Don’t get me started on this one. After catching a fever of ‘del Toro will get you into fucking a fucking fish’, my life wasn’t the same. No really: a fantasy story set through the eyes of a female protagonist (one), who is mute (two), finds a common language with a deep ocean creature (three), draws fanart of it (four), all that somehow tied into an R-rated (for sexual content, I kid you not) story (five), from a master of fantastically bizzaire films Guillermo del Toro (six)? If The Mummy couldn’t bring a compelling monster story (sorry, Ahmanet, I loved you, but the film still sucked), then something else should. I’m counting on you, 2017. (Plus, water. Remember, I’m into water, fire, and ice, and stuff like that? Now, that, but with sea monsters.)

mother!

Another intriguing project of the year alongside GDT’s monster romance movie. mother! keeps it secrets tight, teasing fans with easter eggs and cryptic trailers. If anything, it promises to be disturbing and bizarre, and I’m so ready for this!

(I decided to limit exposure to the film, which is going to be quite a task given my spoiler hungry nature. Wish me luck!)

The Dark Tower

Idris Elba as a lead, great (and original) source material. What else can one ask for? Just hoping it doesn’t suck. Also, I don’t care how much it deviates from the novels as long as the film can stand on its own and makes an overall decent adaptation (’adaptation’ is a key word).

Blade Runner 2049

Sci-fi, aesthetics, colours, cinematography —  just look at the trailers! Harrison Ford (still cutting it), new Harrison Ford, gosh, forgot his name... the shirtless ‘girl’ meme guy... Ryan Gosling!, again, aesthetics, did I mention it already? Yeah, that, and Denis Villeneuve filling in a director’s chair. He directed Arrival, so fingers crossed for a good one.

Thor: Ragnarok

Looking forward to this one mostly for fun and adventure, and what trailers suggest a Guardians of the Galaxy vibe. While I don’t really like Guardians, I like their mood and colourfulness. Things most looked for: Asgaard. Did I say how much I loved that world? Valkyrie. My new mother of dragons. She had like a few seconds of a trailer time, and already slayed me to death. Hoping she’ll get more time than that in the actual film, though. Also hoping Hela, Cate Blanchette’s horned goddess of death, is not yet another villain passing by, but she very well could be. And Locki, a redeemed good guy? That could be fun, knowing he’s prone to fuckery and trickery. Also, please don’t pull a trick with awesome trailers and freshly minted obsession with vintage songs, while the actual product is, well, not what a trailer was.

(That actually applies to all films that use that trick of relying on a familiar, edgy tune to sell a film, and thus set false expectations, that lead to even bigger disappointment if the film itself isn’t as brilliant as the trailer. I’ll get to that maybe in another post.)

Detroit

Based on real events, the film tackles a relevant to nowadays topic of race and police brutality that led to Detroit riots in late 1960s. I should thank John Boyega and his star power for bringing this one to my radar, as real events/documentary type of films are rarely my jam (aside from nature documentaries. I love nature stuff ok). The trailer of this one promises a raw and emotional take on the story, and actually got me hooked, regardless of John’s involvement in it, though his appearance does raises a chance of getting a ticket for this one. (I’m a huge John fan, as you might have guessed already.) It is also great to see John take steps in different directions other than starring in sci-fi/fantasy films (he’s also co-producing his other upcoming project Pacific Rim: Uprising), and bring attention to films like Detroit that could unfortunately be overlooked amid usual summer crowds pleasers. Fantasy and escape are great. Shining light on our very real history is no less greater.

The Murder on the Orient Express

Again, as in the case with Detroit, this one was brought to my attention by another Star Wars star involved into the project - Daisy Ridley. While in general, I’m quite open to book-to-screen adaptations, this one holds me a bit hesitant. That book is one of my favourite Agatha Christie and mystery books (I used to be into mystery quite a bit), and has a great 1974 film adaptation, so why bother with another remake? (Nostalgia and associated cash grabbing are probably less poetic answers).Though I must admit I would be curious to see what a modern adaptation can do with the novel. (Again, hoping it doesn’t suck. This should really be a subtitle of this post.)

And last, but definitely, not least:

Star Wars: The Last Jedi

The crown jewel of 2017. An end of the year treat, if you will. Everything else that came out about the movie so far promises a great adventure and great characters, and I simply cannot wait to see it on the big screen in all glory! Until then, tie-books that are due for release starting from September will do. (My top reading choices are a young Princess Leia novel by Claudia Gray, and a Luke Skywalker myths book.) I could go on and on about how much I love Star Wars, but suffice to say that I can’t wait for a two year agony of waiting for the next chapter to end.

This is it for now, as far as the second of half of 2017 goes. Lots of sci-fi and fantasy films to look forward to, which makes me very happy.

Don't know anyone said this yet, but this is what I imagine mer Freddy to look like

AKLSDFJLASFD

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHHA

[naffeclipse]

The only way I can see Song Fish Amid The Stars' Freddy. I'm sorry.

❤️ Absolutely love your works.

AHHHHHHHAHAHAHHAHAHHA

That's him. That's the sea bear dad

[naffeclipse]

Oh my gosh, little baby! He's so sweet and oh my gosh, I love his colors and little dots of bioluminescence! I love Eclipse about to nom on some dinner aldjfalsdf He's such a sweetie with those big baby eyes ;-;

I'm blown away by the scenery in the Song Fish art! The sky is gorgeous and I love the textures to the sky and the beach with the green. The little shapes in the water being the kids makes my heart melt. The poetry really sets the mood and I love the emotion it evokes, letting go but still linked to each other. This is gorgeous!

Thank you so much for sharing! ♥

imagine being a silly little baby mer that just so happens to be now snatched up by me (I love him so much he is now my baby)

also he does have 4 arms! You just can’t see them well 😭

and here’s some additional art for Song Fish Among the Stars! 🫶 (spoilers? Ig? LOL)

This chapter genuinely made me cry internally and externally 🫶 ty @naffeclipse for splitting my soul into a million pieces /pos

[naffeclipse]

hi! i'm screaming about song fish so here's a meme i made

This meme makes me laugh and cry poor Y/N LKAJSFDLASDF

[naffeclipse]

Just read in deep dreams and I was wondering, it said that if fisher yn dies then eclipse will too but humans don't live long. Is eclipse dooming himself to a short life by bonding with a human or will the human live a bit longer because of eclipse? Even if it's not for his full lifespan, maybe still longer than a normal human?

Mers usually lives to about 200 years, however, Eclipse’s life expectancy changes due to being bonded with a human. It gets cut down to about 150 years, whereas a regular human can live to about 100 years, your life expectancy is bumped to about 150 too! The magic bond has this effect where if nothing unnatural occurs to cause premature death, the pair will share years and eventually, one day far in the future, die together when it’s time.

[naffeclipse]

LASJDFASDF I LOVE THIS AHHHH I AM EATING THIS ART WHOLEHEARTEDLY

Oh my gosh, I'm stunned by how well you captured the size difference, with the mers and humans, and the difference between Sun and Freddy! It's such a small thing but I love it so much ahhh!

Then Gregory, oh my gosh, he's precious, I love how excited he is and just from a side glimpse of Y/N's face you can tell they're Not Calm once so ever alsdfjalsdf Also I love the boat and the background, it's simply *chef's kiss*

I love seeing you post this meme in the comments and now this!!! This is such a treat hehe

Thank you so much for sharing! ♥

Rattles the bars of my enclosure Rattles the bars of my enclosure RATTLES RATTLES THE BARS!

I’m excited to hear the discussion they’re gonna get to have next chapter. It. Is. ON. Reader is terrified but for Gregory n the rest of the audience it’s Easter, Halloween and Christmas combined. You can tell t exactly where the sheer exhaustion kicked in but I powered through in the name of the meme. I also figured out how to make they syrup brush look good n not goopy so I used it to cheat a lil

this is so absurdly cursed but i’m not sorry

literally today i was talkin shit about Baby to my partner and then @.@

Baby is The Worst ;-;

LASJDFLAFDSJASDF SO CURSED PFFT

Oh yeah, Circus takes after Glitch :)

[naffeclipse]

So, let's imagine cute scenarios with Song Fish Amid the Stars to calm the angst. I think of Y/N eating peppers and they like it, but both Sun and Moon don't enjoy the bite and that night they visit Y/N to give a cheek tug . Or maybe Y/N stays up too late until they hears a siren song in the back of his mind and falls asleep, in his dreams they are scolded by a fish face and doesn't understand a word. And I personally find the image of Y/N being bitten by Moon in a dream funny, and decides to return the bite, Moon gasps and Sun just watches them in silence because now there are two of them

Y/N bites Moon's little finger like a rapid animal. Moon thinks it's hilarious. Sun's worried about Y/N's teeth

[naffeclipse]

Soul bound question! Regarding the fact that Circus nearly dragged y/n to death with her and how we see Eclipse and his fisher have moved on together, does the mers death always lead to the death of their partner? Are you given the choice to move on without them as y/n was? This isn't the case with Vanessa and Glitchtrap (maybe she was given a choice, we can't see), but maybe it depends on the bond? Or was this a special case with y/n due to their overwhelming connection between three different mers?

Loved the fic, I hope you can clear this up before I drown in my own theories <3

It depends. If a partner is killed early due to unnatural circumstances, a mer or a human usually survives the death such as Vanessa when Glitch was killed. If a pairing lives a long life together, they die together, such as the fisher and Eclipse.

Circus dragging Y/N down with her was born out of extreme pain and the tug-of-war between the three mers that overloaded Y/N's soul. They gave up the ghost for a second there because it was too much, but they were able to come back because their bond with Sun and Moon was that strong. Y/N could have chosen to stay there, but they would have had to wait for Sun and Moon.

Mers will often die from a broken heart if their soul-bound partner is killed. Should Y/N have stayed on that white beach, Sun and Moon would have followed them instead.

[naffeclipse]

OH HER HELLO HI I AM GAZING!!! AHHH! She looks so evil and creature, ahhh, oh my gosh, and her claws!!! I am staring directly at her, eee!!!

Thank you so much for sharing! ♥

@naffeclipse CIRCUS AJJAHAHAHA

I try to be a bit creative teehee (I definitely didn’t go off this from memory of her description)

She paints her claws with the blood of her victims because she’s a girlboss

[naffeclipse]

In song fish do Sun and Moon have a bond too or is it just a mer to human thing? And if they don't have a straight up bond, is there any "feedback" from them both being bonded to the same human? Ex Moon gets hurt, y/n feels it, Sun feels it to an even lesser extent.

And as far as the shared lifespan, does that mean song fish y/n is going to live longer than deep dreams y/n since they have two mers to feed them extra years?

I love your fic!! and feel free not to answer if any of this is spoilery

Sun and Moon do have a bond but it's different from their bond with Y/N. Consider it a 'twin thing'. They can mentally talk to each other and Y/N is the only one who can hear their conversation. As for any feedback, they won't feel any pain through Y/N that Y/N doesn't directly suffer, but they can feel Y/N's distress at any pain, so they would know if the other mer was hurt.

Ex Moon gets hurt, Y/N feels it, Sun feels Y/N's distress at the pain Y/N and Moon are feeling/sharing, and vice versa.

Yes, that's correct! Y/N gets to live longer though just by an extra 25 years or so.

Thank you! I appreciate the questions and thank you for reading!! ♥
