the thing that gets me when watching random merlin bts videos is just how much work went into producing this silly show... I'll make fun of the little blue sidhe and then they'll interview someone from the costume department going "yes the makeup took us 8 hours to put together :)" or one of the CGI guys will talk about how they spent months trying to figure out how to animate kilgharrah and I'll feel bad for ever laughing at the bad special effects. the beautiful sets, the gorgeous handsewn gowns, the music. so much love was poured into this project it makes me a bit emotional if I think about it too much
#the music. the music man.#arthur and gwen's theme so beautiful there's people going 'I want this played at my wedding'#and they are right#I also think there's great writing in it#the comedy especially but#some excellent dramatic scenes too#who did it like her#bbcm#merlin#bbc merlin#*

i've been waiting for gravity falls to become relevant again so i could share one of my favorite underrated bits from the entire show. like it's only episode 2 but this whole segment just makes me lose my shit. i think jason ritter's exasperated line delivery is what makes it
#something about the comedy in early gravity falls just hits different imo it's SO neat#also legend of the gobblewonker is just a really solid episode overall#i don't think i have literally any criticisms of it??? it tells a simple but meaningful message without undermining the audience#it has GREAT characterization for the main characters but especially the pines fam#lots of really memorable gags#THIS IS THE ORIGIN OF MY AIM IS GETTING BETTER#leo.txt#gfalls#gravity falls

Also the whole “do you know what they would call me if I was a man?” “strong?” “Reginald” scene literally had me laughing so hard I almost pissed myself
#mean girls 2024#mean girls musical#mean girls#renee rapp#once again… I am obsessed with her and that whole spring fling scene with her on the pain meds was hilarious#but especially the part in the bathroom that was comedy gold

Well, after some several hours i finally finished this. I used the "Kermes" art as a reference. Im doing another, but that im wanting to change thr colors. The sun was something that i wanted to draw because of your arts that has some red background. dunno why, but my first idea was drawing machete with Dante's clothes or Vergil.... i hope you liked it :)
.
#oh it's wild seeing him interpretated through embroidery!#it must've been a painstaking process to fill in his clothes with all that red#and with such small stitches#yeah I've used sun/halo imagery quite a few times especially with him#so it's definitely fitting#I'd be lying if I said The Divine Comedy and all the art associated with it hadn't been a steady influence#when it comes to Machete#I think it's rather unavoidable considering his time period occupation and general vibe#that's really neat! thank you for sharing!#gift art#ravenfinetemper#own characters#Machete

wait one more thing about Ember Island Players that's so funny is like... imagine creating a show and then becoming either frustrated/annoyed/bemused that a sizable part of your fandom ships two characters that you don't want them to. And instead of ignoring it or letting it lie, they decide to use this episode as a moment to show these fans how silly that ship is. And sure, maybe its all supposed to be in good fun but like if the goal, in-part, was to discourage people shipping them, I cannot emphasize enough how acknowledging the pairing in-universe, having people consistently mistake them for a couple, and having said characters constantly over-react to the very notion and get belligerently defensive because they are very much not dating why would you say that is extremely antithetical to that goal.
#as if those aren't common tropes that shippers love.#lmao its comedy#atla#zutara#like having zuko and katara get SO defensive when June thinks that they're dating (again) ... its not doing what bryke thinks it is#especially when you contrast katara's reaction when Toph thought she had a fling with Haru which was like an apathetic/confused no

You know, it's a tragedy that there are no (or very little) Vampire x Christian stories out there, not for angst or theology or forbidden seductiveness or whatnot but for the sheer comedy of it all. I mean, the Christian would technically be immune to all of the vampire's shenanigans, like for example...
Vampire: Fool, I am the most powerful vampire in the West. Nothing but the force of an entire holy temple could even deign to scratch me Christian: Idiot, I AM a holy temple. 1 Corinthians 6:19, fear me and the Spirit inside that can burn you to ashes
#this thought was brought on by a conversation i saw on the km shea discord#and also my need to theologize everything#it would be so funny to me too if we added the fact that the human Christian was also anemic#(not because anemia is funny. especially not if it's chronic. just the fact that the vamp couldn't bite the human)#truth be told it doesn't even have to be a romance to me. just a chaotic comedy duo#lemon duck quacks#lemon duck tales#yeah this is funny#for the words!#one day i will write all my deranged supernatural story ideas that involve way too much Christian imagery and comedy#but for now....#anyway how to make the most unbiteable human that you cannot help be drawn to as a modernized vamp?#Christian and likely chronically iron deficient#i am very sorry if this is offensive#but you know#vampires

I'm realizing that if Obey Me!MC ever met WHB!MC, they'd lose their shit.
-
OB: YOU HAVE TO DO WH A T TO SURVIVE?!
WHB: You dont?!
OB: that feels, and I mean this sincerely, so illegal. Are you ok? Is it consensual? Do I need to call someone for you?!
-
*demon bros fighting*
OB: SIT BOYS! Anyways, like I was saying-
WHB, staring at the Demon Brothers unable to move, kneeling on the ground: I cannot express to you how jealous I am right now.
-
OB, glaring at WHB!Leviathan: oh my diavolo you're a bitch. I feel like I just touched something dirty. Gross, ugh. LEVI COME SNUGGLE!!
WHB, watching Leviathan about to murder OB as other Levi turns into a happy blushy mess and gets headpats* oh no
-
Bael and Beelzebub staring at Beel and Belphie: so you don't just leave to do whatever?
Beel: no? I have a job here outside of Rad- why are you crying.
Bael: can we please trade???
Belphie: hELL NO!
-
OB: wait so your mammon is like, rich rich?
WHB: more like three but- wait is yours not?
OB: . . . No comment.
-
*WHB screaming in terror and trying to run at the sight of Simeon, Luke, and losing it at the name Raphael*
OB: angels where they're are evil and trying to kill them. Don't worry about it.
*10 minutes later*
WHB nestled in Simeon's wings literally having the time of their life and super upset about it: mAn, ouR aNgELs fUcKinG SUCK.
OB, staring down a chained up WHB!Barbatos with disgust: your demons suck too. Where are his clothes?
-
OB!Solomon: ^ ^
WHB: oh you're their solomon?! Man my demons would probably love to mee-
OB popping their head in: NO THEY WOULDNT HES A SHADY BITCH!!
OB!Solomon: how could you say such a thing?
OB: You poisoned me just last week!
OB!Solomon: I made you dinner as you weren't feeling well!
WHB: aww, how ni-
OB: EXACTLY!!! POISON!! I COULDNT MOVE FOR TWO DAYS!!
WHB: 0_o
-
*The whole demon bros and kings and company staring each other down*
WHB: ok, so um- this is kind of hard to explain-
OB: SOLOMON AHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO THIS TIME YOU SHADY BITCH?!
Literally the whole WHB cast: SOLOMON?!
WHB: he's not like our Solomon. Sorry guys.
Someone: but it's-
*cue OB flipping OB!Solomon off as he hides a large thick tome behind his back while yelling at him. Lucifer facepalms, groaning*
OB!Lucifer: I have too much work for this.
OB, turning around and grinning: HEY YOU GUYS WANNA SEE A MAGIC TRICK?!
OB!Mammon, clocking it right away: TREASURE NO-
OB: Lucifer, bark!
OB!Lucifer: woof . . . You're fucking dead.
*silence. Both Satan's burst out laughing among others*
-
Meanwhile poor Luke is being threatened by a couple WHB Demons and that's OB!MC's child so NO THANK YOU!!
WHB is extremely jealous of the magic they can wield, but does help stop their more powerful demons from killing the OB angels. Who are horrified at the thought of aimless murder like that. Except Raphael, he's a warrior angel, but even he agrees that these angels are wrong.
(If OB!Micheal shows up that's going to be a shit show and I've got popcorn)
#obey me crack#obey me#whb#what in hell is bad#obey me mc#whb mc#im not tagging everyone#i just think this is funny#especially with simeon#sweet lovely little angel#their first positive experice with an angel#is with him#and it will never be topped#also whb solomon vs ob solomon?#peak comedy#ones loved and revered and missed dearly#the other has been trying to get with lucifer for centuries with no luck#and cant stop poisoning people

I made this comic back in 2020. It is, unfortunately, even more relevant today than it was back then, and it's only been 4 years.
#gag comic#comedy#political strip#off topic#seriously i know that U.S. politics especially have always been intertwined with human rights#but why are we still letting this happen#who would you rather elect president - a rich white man or a bear

It would be nice to read a Superman comic that’s more Clark than Kal.
It would be nice to read a Batman comic where Bruce does more good as himself for the issues than as Batman.
It would be nice to see Diana in one of her many jobs like a museum curator bringing beautiful pieces of history to light for people to marvel at or as a diplomat.
It would be nice to see Barry solving crimes with his forensic science without bolting off between every discovery to handle things as Flash.
It would be wonderful to read a story about these awesome heroes that was focused on what good their other identities do, with their heroic personas as background instead of the other way around. I hardly hear of stories that last more than a few issues or an arch that gives us a nice long look into their civilian lives, if anyone knows any longer arcs like this I’d love to read them.
#clark kent#superman#bruce wayne#batman#diana prince#wonder woman#barry allen#the flash#it took a lot of power not to throw Billy in#I really do love civilian moments#not the peaks of it between fights#I seriously do think these could be fun or even exciting if dc wanted them to be#especially if they don’t do a ‘Bruce Wayne accused of murder’ plot again#bc that happens with alarming frequency I wonder how CPS lets him still adopt kids#gimmie some mystery’s with Clark#gimmie some political goodness with Diana#gimmie that greatest hits list of Brucie Wayne as a good ol fashioned comedy#gimmie gimmie#dc#dc comics#comics

#on god if you wont give them more episodes at least give them longer ones this is so painful its like seeing a birds wings being clipped#our flag means death#like yes they couldve cut more things to fit into the constraints they were given but frankly#giving a plot driven comedy show 8 episodes in a season is criminal#especially a big ensemble show like this#and its not like they had the luxury of splitting the plot into two seasons because they don't know if they're going to be renewed at all#tldr maybe they could've cut more corners with the plot of this season but they shouldn't have to. 8 30min episodes for a season is inane#i need them to get a s3 to give this story the ending it deserves please

seen a couple people running to that "is it bad writing or do you not understand genre" post in regards to the ofmd upset. and let me remind people that this show was marketed as a romantic comedy, ESPECIALLY this season!
In that regard, I found an article/blog post that directly addresses the question "can you have character death in a romantic comedy?" And it really hits the nail on the head.
Even if you were to make the argument "well it's a dark comedy!" or "its a pirate show!" there's still a balance that needs to be met if you don't want to alienate your audience.
People are going to argue that the death was earned because they spent the entire season building up his character and "completing his arc". Well, I'll argue that they DIDN'T complete his arc. In fact they took about twelve steps back in his death scene by seemingly ret conning his progress and having him center Ed's feelings on his literal deathbed. So it really feels a lot like fridging, because that's exactly what it was. Izzy's death was for Ed's arc, not his own. And they spent so much time focusing on Izzy all season, focusing on his growth and giving him such a specific arc about queerness and recovery, that yeah, his death feels like a slap to the face and not a tragic story beat that makes the story all the richer.
#ofmd spoilers#ofmd season 2#ofmd#izzy hands#ofmd s2#thought about going into the definitions of comedy and tragedy in terms of classic theatre and shakespearean drama but modern story telling#has really diverged from those structures especially in television and with the way shows are produced#even so if i get fired up enough maybe i'll make another post about it#cause there are Rules to shakespearian comedy and even in modern storytelling those rules are generally respected#ofmd critical

While rewatching ducktales, I realised that they looove foreshadowing, they do it all the time, sometimes they even give the whole plot of an episode in the very first scenes without the viewer noticing lol.
Anyway, I realised that they foreshadowed the whole “duke of making a mess” thing that Huey had in the sword of swanstantine episode!
THE THING IS, EVEN on my first watch, I could tell that this was supposed to be a multiple episode arc but they HAD to make it shorter because ducktales was getting cancelled and I’m PISSED. LIKE ALL OF MY FAVOURITE CARTOONS, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN SO MUCH MORE.
DEWEY had his own arc where he’s trying to uncover his mom’s dissaperance with Webby. LOUIE had his own arc where he was struggling with his place in the family and HUEY. DIDN’T.
Ughhh they foreshadowed the Duke of making a mess in the intern episode and even in Scrooge’s birthday!!
Those are BOTH season 1 episodes (I’m not gonna list more foreshadowing because you get my point) SO THEY’VE BEEN BUILDING UP THIS ARC SINCE THE BEGINNING AND THEY DIDNT GET TO CASH IT INNNNN RAHHHHHH 🗣️‼️‼️‼️‼️
When watching the ONE episode where he appears, you could IMMEDIATELY tell that it should’ve been a bigger deal. I mean come onnnn, they enter Huey’s mind scape and there’s a huge closed up door??? With locks??? DUUUDE THAT WOULD’VE BEEN AWESOMMMMEEE
I’m saying all of this but this is just to vent some frustration about how animation shows will just be cancelled without the chance to say all that they’ve wanted to say… and as the one who wants to hear it: *cries and wails and pees on the floor*
Ducktales was planning so many more seasons and only got 3, like every other great animation show nowadays i fear
#you know I complain a lot about these things#especially irl so iykyk lmao#but as a future animator#I seriously plan on doing something about this#I don’t care what people say#I’m bringing back 2D animation#I’m bringing back lore-filled action-comedy adventure series#and I’m fixing the mistakes that we’ve made in the past#by using what’s going on right now as a stepping stool#I plan on making the things I love better#and I know that I’m not the only one with that goal seeing how many new indie animators are doing this too#I hope that I’ll get to do it on a big platform and get a bunch of seasons#you know what? I could probably start with a short series and see how it goes from there#so many plans man#anyway#lmao#ducktales#ducktales 2017#huey duck#the Duke of making a mess#animation#ducktales spoilers#ducktales 2017 spoilers

if star wars was pitched for the first time in today's entertainment industry it would be turned down. and so would any other thing that's currently a "big IP". where do idiot executives think the IPs come from to begin with???
#entertainment industry#animation industry#hollywood news#not art#this isn't common knowledge to most people so it's my mission to let people know just how bad it is out there#if its original its not getting picked up. if it does get picked up somehow it'll be cancelled by the second season.#unless its a shitty celebrity nepo project or the gazillionth generic Edgy Adult Animated Comedy with the fugliest art style you've ever se#n. how do we Great Chicago Fire all of hollywood. anyone got a cow and a lantern? we can do it.#maybe TWO cows and TWO lanterns#god the industry makes me sad. especially the animation industry its basically fucking dead#it literally IS dead actually. like. we lost cartoon network guys its over. indie is the future and the only future i guess#do you know how many animation folks are out of a job rn??? nobodys fucking hiring there aren't any jobs to begin with#nothing good will be coming out soon. i fully expect the animators to strike this year#capitalism kills art the CEOs are minmaxing profits to the extreme etc etc burn it all
