i got drunk & watched the rwrb movie last night and i have 2 thoughts
1. that was bad
2. it was like a bad porno but without any porn
#the acting was so stiff#why were there so many dead silences#what was that color grading#why were henry’s lips so red#WHY WAS EVERYTHING FADE TO BLACK#this movie was rated r but they didn’t even swear or fuck ????????#didn’t need to see em going at it doggy style but like ?? even the fucking kiss scenes were cut so short to make room for what exactly#the plot? the plot that they absolutely butchered?#i’m not gonna say the book was a masterpiece but like. at least it got the pacing right#i didn’t believe OR care about their relationship#and WHERE WAS JUNE#and why was nora insufferable#her lines????? no one talks like that#my friend said that the two leads only had chemistry when they were actively making out and like… did they lie#uma thurman did not give a single shit and i respect that#ok so apparently i had more than 2 thoughts#but like DAMN#i knew it’d be bad#but THIS???

#byakuya togami#yasuhiro hagakure#whose dick byakuya...WHOSE DICK....#this can be naegami implied but i also have a very specific headcanon that post thh byakuya sleeps around#mostly bc trauma + stress relief + acting against his weird 'fuck around have kids' family tradition#he's so stiff and annoying all the time he should be allowed to let loose. have a cig. and a quickie in a future foundation bathroom stall#suggestive#my arts#danganronpa

cannot stop thinking about these lines and their respective expressions. merlin "cracking" what matters to gwaine the most and trying to tempt him with it. gwaine looking compelled but wary, almost betrayed? and later that same episode when gwaine retaliates by "cracking" merlin's deal he does so in a way that validates merlin instead of judging him (as this is more about gwaine seeing how much merlin loves arthur than anything else), leaving merlin speechless and cautiously elated. in both their reactions there's the vulnerability of "oh fuck i've been perceived" and being generally caught off-guard, but there's also an undercurrent of "why are you saying this? because you mean it? because you think it's what i want to hear? because you want to show me you've figured me out? all of the above?" a sort of mutual intrigue..... the mortifying ordeal of it all
#s3 merwaine is RIPE with yaoi cocaine. thats why it rhymes#merwaine#bbc gwaine#bbc merlin#gwaine x merlin#bbcm#gwaine#eoin's performances can be a bit stiff when hes not the main focus of a scene but i think he thrives on subtext slkfjglkfdhl#i mean he clearly put a LOT of thought into developing gwaine's whole deal. so much going on up there#a spinoff-worthy character if ive ever seen one#but yeah especially now having watched the movie eoin wrote/directed im like oh this man is not normal about acting and storytelling at all#and thank god!

I hate the stretch lines in the front of Curly's uniform because that means the devs rushed to make a model in like a month or so and thought "They gotta at least know he has huge knockers, gotta know he's got back pain." Cause like what is the thematic importance of his tits having overhang?
What responsibility is that representing? Breast reduction? It shows an inherent greed in his character due to the excess and heshouldletmeholdone and that he clearly is blinded cause if he tries to look down his damn ladder all he's seeing is his own cleavage.
#this is my curly slander post ig#disclaimer i need you to understand i see all fictional men i like as like butches Curly is no exception#but like they didnt need to add that many polygons to his chest like its unnessary and honestly a little mean he already has so many things#to handle and you expect him to hold those boys up like that just aint right this is like something so stupid but i know you can tell im#having strong feelings about it cause like what was the point why did they survive the fucking crash it has to be a injoke at this point#with the devs it shouldnt make me this mad im turning into a misandrist but only towards large chested men#mouthwashing#curly mouthwashing#shitpost#suggestive#ig because this is just about his chest but like also they made him objectively pretty for no reason like yeah like ideal man and work ig#but they went over the extra mile like i have a right to be mad they did that much for a model we see canonically for like two seconds its#crazy actually how little we see of curly pre crash because we also lose his physical movements to help characterize him the way we see#body language with the other characters and how it gives way to their struggles and personalities and sentiments in certain moments#like all he does and how he emotes is stifled by the fact we always play as him until the last moments where he takes over to try and save#the ship and crew and even right before that the scene is so wrought with tension we cant tell what that look he gave Jimmy meant due to#the limitations of the models and how stiff Curly is like was it fear acceptance denial we dont know enought about how he acts himself#to tell and then everything else is charaterized by what Jimmy had done to where we dont really just get to see Curly as himself like Anya#and Swansea and Daisuke we have no idea how theyd act in a regular moment outside of a few glimpses and even then it is them doing#their jobs like grrrr we hate an unreliable narrator but also its the fact jimmy clearly does not interact with them or try to outside of#his position as copilot and then captain harkening back to the entire capitlist view of utility and how he views all of them as useless eve#Curly which fandom tangent the fandom also tends to do to Curly as they base every trait on what they think he failed to do as Captain#between Jimmy and Anya when the QnAs kinda make him out to be a rather open and willing person but still someone who isnt like a push over#just thinking of QnA three where it mentions hes very open to trying new things and you need to be an open minded person to open urself up#to failure like that and ig this is just the weird view that Curly needs to learn that or that theres redemption he needs personality wise#verses healing and learning from trauma like idk its the idea that people assume he did abosultely nothing when the games points out direct#and throught parallels he was taking actions its just wasnt enough and an over focus on absolute inaction vs ineffective methods used to#tackle the issues and themes the game grapples with plus wanting someone to take the blame and have to make it up to Anya even tho#i think it would mean nothing from Curly because she saw his efforts and would be disappointed it wasnt enough but the idea she would#disregard the attempts or not acknoweldge Jimmy as the epicenter compared ot Curly is weird and too focused on someone

give me an attractive man blinded by anger and revenge, with a good set of luscious grey hair and you know I'll be on board...no matter what becomes of this drama
#blossom drama#blossom 2024#cdrama#meng ziyi#li yun rui#i am not entirely sure about this guy tbh#his performance was lacking in the last immortal#a little wooden and stiff and he's kinda sporting the same acting here as well#he looks absolutely beautiful tho#and i guess it's too early to judge him#i love the vibe of this drama so much#it literally captivated me from ep one

man if i made the video essays in my mind i would be utterly unstoppable AND insufferable
#postatoes#keep thinking about this idea i've had#about ar tonelico's us marketing#... like. the marketing for 1 alone was SO bad like#i think it would just be interesting looking at how the game was advertised vs the actual appeals of the game (in my eyes)#i dont know if better marketing would have helped but#like. one of the official trailers has lyner using an attack that COMPLETELY fails to land a hit on the enemy like.#why would you use that footage#and the way it cuts from song to song doesn't really let you enjoy the music which is SUCH a big appeal of the game#also. okay i think they should've used more character voice lines#shurelia always sounds a little stiff so it gives a specific impression of the voice acting

Atom and Thap bring a certain neurodiversity swag to the function...
My Love Mix-Up Thailand
#gem4th#gemfot#my love mix up th#mlmu th#fourth nattawat#gemini norawit#msp#my school president#Fourth's move in the 4th gif will live rent free in my mind#as a dancer I can say it's actually just really embodied movement that a lot of people can't do#i also wish both of them just got to explore and play with their characters in the series as much as they did in this one scene#i had literally been having the thought last week about how stiff and rehearsed so much of the series seemed forced to be#especially in comparison with the improv they were clearly allowed to do in MSP and Moonlight Chicken#and yesterday i read someone's review of the MSP episode of Our Skyy where they discuss 4th's full-body style of acting#which i wholly agree with and have written about (but it got eaten so maybe i'll have to redo it at some point now)#anyway enjoy the gifs everyone#atom x kongthap

nauur scavengers reign didnt win the animated series emmy 💔 i will avenge you scavengers reign !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#i tried watching blue eye samurai (winner) bc it looked cool but it was so stiff (in general but voice acting especially) i couldnt do it.#the comedy sidekick type guy was especially annoying#also not a fan of that faux 2d cgi animation. it always looks kind of unfinished? cheap? even if its extremely detailed to me#scavengers reign you will always be famous#kiddo say

People need to stop glorifying the villains so much whilst hating on the heroes for one mistake or having to do one bad thing.
#mha#stop going on about how hawks killed twice and it was “so wrong! so sad!”#like did u forget that of twice made it out that room he wouldve killed thousands of people????#hawks gave him THREE very serious chances and choices#you can always like the villains but hating on the heroes???#there is no such thing as a perfect society#but pleade give shoto the same hype as my boy dabi#shoto is such an angel#i do sympathise with the villains and stiff but some of yall act like theyre genuine saints#like sorry but nobody in the mha verse is gonna care about shiggy's sad backstoru#not when he killrd multiple children heros and cibillains

tbh i have so many issues with the ways bg3 characters are perceived en masse but astarion gets first place in the "they forget he is an experimental fusion of lucille bluth and dennis reynolds" race. like. listen, i do love him. but he's not a charisma build, he's a cat that just fell into a river. if u ascend him u also ascend the clown aura. u have brought the clown aura into the light permanently. now the clown aura can fly and summon swarms of whatever the fuck ascended astarion can summon (clouds of locusts? more bats? idk, it's late) and like. talk to wolves or whatever.
#the only companions with decent charisma are wyll and minthara#wyll and minthara hold like. ALL the charisma#tbh wyll is so shakespearean i- [i become incomprehensible it is almost 7 am i have not slept]#nah but wyll speaks like a bard i'm obsessed w it#wyll works poetic devices into his speech n im like is he doing that on purpose???#or is that just the Natural 17 Charisma#i feel like it was honed but it comes across as natural#both can be true at once#astarion meanwhile is doing this act but it's so like.#it comes from this horrible place he's doing it for survival it is so stiff#bg3#astarion

i think the diamond dogs should play improv games just bc it would amuse me, an ex theater kid, specifically
#ted and beard ofc are reading each others minds#trent is shockingly good at it but only when he forgets to be self conscious#also see: he does both best and worst with ted (best when he's not being self conscious#worst when somehow the prompt gets too touchy or 'romantic' bc Crush Crush Crush Brain Panic)#(please the image of ted in character hugging him or something and trent just. red. brain crashed. no longer improving just frozen. barely#manages to recover and even then it was not subtle. unclear if ted is a) genuinely oblivious b) teasing him and thinks trent knows that#c) something else(??) )#roy is too stiff most of the time but if he gets really into it he gets REALLY into it.#best way to get this result is to involve phoebe or another child#higgins did community theater at some point and is the one teaching them all the games. beard also seems to have done intense research#but higgins is the one with EXPERIENCE#not that i think beard and ted couldn't have done an improv duo in college or something but in this scenario they did not#nate surprisingly is pretty good at it once he gets into it like it takes him a second but#then he's like. really getting into it and he's very quick on his feet#new way to go mad with power (affectionate): the rush you get when you make the perfect snap back comedic line/acting choice#also while trent is so good paired with so many of them i think he and nate would be a hilarious duo. they're SO funny.#they complement each other well and are both quick & clever#esp if it's about a mutual interest (although one of them taking the lead on something else like nate and music while the other plays off t#em is also good) but like#please i just had the iamge of them basically doing a bit where they're like. those mean old gay muppets in the theater?#like trent and nate improv duoing as some bitchy reviewers just going back and forth and it's so FAST and SO funny#beard records it and posts it somewhere and it goes viral.#god don't even get me started on the idea of some sort of official richmond social media/the gang posting random clips on social media#bc the ideas i have are so funny.#also largely trent centric but what do you want from me okay i'm just a little slut.

by the way i can completely tell the pjo tv show is still finding its feet and there are certainly flaws but the fact i can also see the black sails/rick riordan writing quality peaking through this early is blowing my goddamn mind.
the emphasis on themes of violence and foreshadowing the central conflict of hate begetting hate within families? being cast aside and mistreated by your parents and having to choose revenge (luke) or to break the cycle and forge a new path (annabeth)?
medusa paralleling with annabeth but more than that paralleling with luke as a victim trying to recruit percy in a rage against the gods and killing those that stand in her way. echidna showing more love to her children than the gods do to theirs. foreshadowing the complexity of the gods and the different sides of the kronos war with the early introduction of a jaded but good hearted hephaestus contrasted with rage incarnate ares and the cold violence of athena against the tumultuous irresponsible love of poseidon.
yes they’re changing a lot but also thinking about how much this adds to the story and how much i’ve been reconsidering the themes and events of books i’ve read dozens of times over the course of 12 years is mind blowing to me. like this show is killing it and if i don’t get 4 more seasons catch me face down in the ocean
#pjo tv show#pjo#percy jackson#like this is making me INSANE#it has its flaws like yes the lighting sucks yes the pacing is a little wack yes some of the acting is stiff#but also they’re like 5 episodes into the first season with child actors and a whole new team so give us a break??#you can see things SEEDING and that’s what’s fucking important.#they just need a second to find their footing#it’s crazy it’s making me excited to see how they do things and what things they emphasize like i literally never thought this deep#also i hate to say it but having the gods introduced this early really emphasizes the fact that they CHOOSE to not be around their kids#hermes is literally just hanging out at a casino??? boy go say hello to your son.

it's actually pretty charming to me how the American voice actors all seem to struggle with pronouncing the elven words
like... "it's called the nar-dus deer-thal-ehn"
is it, Bellara
is it called that
because i'm pretty sure the subtitle says "nadas dirthalen", and that's. that's not how i'd. say that, lol
(it makes sense lore-wise tho, the elves did lose a lot of their language and many of the Dalish have American accents in canon, so it's fitting, if sad that they would have troubles even just pronouncing Elvish, but I'm also just saying that with affection and a tiny bit of smugness)
#squirrel plays datv#datv spoilers#this is going to be mean of me but... tbh the voice acting so far *has* been feeling a little bit stiff#with the exception of gareth david-lloyd (who is still just a great actor); everyone has been sort of sounding a *tiny* bit scripted#and bellara in particular reminds me of the hostess of a children's daytime matinee#which is not a bad thing! it's cute! it all feels like dragon age; the quippy game from before the quippy movies killed quip! but... yknow#waiting for ramon tikaram and ike amadi to come; push their sleeves up; and blow it clean out the water lol

the archies movie is set pieces moving across the screen in coordinated dance moves while halfway decent music plays in the background.
#archie comics#the archies#desiblr#desi#desi tumblr#desi tag#desi culture#india#zoya akhtar#suhana khan#veronica lodge#khushi kapoor#betty cooper#archie andrews#jughead jones#reggie mantle#ethel cain#seriously why was everything so stiff#i know they're nepo babies but was this terrible acting necessary#they all speak hindi as well i do (for reference i'm from south india)#well at least they're kind of pretty to look at#and the music didn't suck#suhana khan's dancing was so bad that it was concerning#at least the roller skate dance wasn't too bad#archie wasn't good either#it#it's like watching dry toast#anyway it's leaps and bounds ahead of riverdale#riverdale just sucked man
