(Tiana & Amadeus) ›› District Eleven

(Sooraya & Victor) ›› District Twelve

Tell me what you think of this, otherwise there are more notes underneath the cut

Two characters are unnamed because while the Champions have twenty four listed members, one of them is Devil Dinosaur, and the other is Scott Summers. The first is a dinosaur. The second will be a mentor. Also Cloud Nine is cut bc the gender divide between the champs was 13-11, and she was the one I knew about the least, so I replaced her with Speed, which was explained in the ticket I wrote for him

Notes!!

Gabby is a Career Tribute, but she meant to wait longer before volunteering, but districts one two and four were stopped from doing that

Joaquin is in District 2 bc in the MCU they put him in the Air Force

District 3 is tech, so Riri is obvious. But David from his time working for hero support.

Qureshi is on the beach bc his portal powers help him smuggle people over the ocean, which is a major part of his backstory, and the overall plot of the fic.

Viv is in the power district so she can absorb all the newly generated power

Kamala and Kareem are in transportation district bc. Their adventure on the train. (This isn't going to ship them I just thought it was a fun connection)

Miles is in textiles bc spiders. Weave. Haha.

Amka is in textiles for a better plot reason. So that when she gets involved with people in her district helping others escape the country, she picks up on the patterns they weave into cloth to send messages, and then use that knowledge when she gets her northern lights powers.

Fernanda is in grain to guide escaping people through the fields.

Sam is in grain bc. Aliens. Crop circles.

Lunella is with livestock to get her used to working with large animals before she meets Devil Dinosaur in the Arena

Amadeus is working in District 11 to crossbreed plants for max yield. He's very respected for this, which allows him to work on the Hulk formula and control sleeve, though that isn't allowed into the Games.

Tiana (with Amadeus' help) operates a set of mechanical wings to speed up harvest. Only allowed bc she had a rope attached to the ground tied around her.

Victor's power is to sense the history in a place, and draw power from it. He is able to use the relative freedom of District Twelve to get pulled into anti-capitol movements gathered in centers of their old culture.

Made an Avengers line-up! Wanted to make a mix of backgrounds and focus on legacy and wild cards. Had so much fun making this and want to imagine lots of stories with them. What do you think?

Sam Wilson Captain America - Jane Foster Thor - Captain Marvel

Joaquin Torres Falcon - Sam Alexander Nova - Ms. Marvel

Fantomex - Trinary - Swordsman (descended from the original Swordsman Jacques Duquesne, imagine him as the silent badass of the group with a connection to magic)

ℕ𝕠𝕨𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕖 (2023)

Nowhere es una película de suspenso y supervivencia estrenada en 2023, dirigida por el cineasta español Albert Pintó. La historia se centra en Mia, una mujer embarazada que se encuentra atrapada en una situación desesperada cuando el contenedor en el que está, es lanzado al mar. En medio de un entorno hostil y con recursos limitados, Mia debe enfrentarse a condiciones extremas para sobrevivir y, al mismo tiempo, proteger la vida de su futuro hijo.

La película ofrece una experiencia claustrofóbica y llena de tensión, donde el aislamiento y la lucha por la supervivencia se convierten en los temas centrales. Mia, interpretada por Anna Castillo, se enfrenta a una serie de desafíos físicos y emocionales mientras intenta encontrar una salida de su trampa acuática, a la deriva en un océano inmenso.

El film explora temas profundos como la resiliencia, el instinto de supervivencia y la lucha contra el destino en situaciones que parecen imposibles de superar. La dirección de Pintó crea un ambiente opresivo, con un fuerte énfasis en los elementos visuales y el uso del espacio limitado para mantener la tensión durante toda la película.

Nowhere ha sido elogiada por su enfoque único, sus actuaciones intensas, y su capacidad para mantener al espectador al borde de su asiento. La película se basa en el suspense puro, con momentos de angustia y una historia que combina el drama humano con elementos de thriller de supervivencia.

No es una obra maestra, pero funciona sin duda como un buen entretenimiento. Si no sabes qué ver te puede servir bastante bien. La recomendaría y le damos tres estrellitas y media ⭐⭐⭐☆

Tengo que morir todas las noches.

Morir todas las noches para luchar cada mañana.

Por mgarsos.

Una auténtica lección de tolerancia a modo de drama sociocultural ochentero, que expone las problemáticas y la lucha de la comunidad LGBTIQ+ en el DF mexicano de la época.

Basada en las crónicas de Guillermo Osorno, nos plantea unas tramas paralelas coincidentes en una historia común, el 9 y la lucha del colectivo en los 80. Toda la narrativa se encuentra bien construida y aunque se torna algo caótica al final del metraje, resulta muy sencillo conectar.

Partimos de un reparto coral muy talentoso y bien dirigido, Toledano hace suyo a un Memo complejo y sincero que gana fuerza cuando comparte plano con Montalvo o Masalva. Por otro lado, contamos con una Silvia Navarro en estado de gracia, quien junto a Cristina Rodlo crecen y brillan aún más si cabe. El contrapunto aportado por Efe es tan importante como necesario. Y el dúo formado por Giménez y Sánchez-Navarro es todo un ejemplo de amor y comprensión. Caben menciones especiales para Nova Coronel, Elyfer Torres, Humberto Busto, Germán Bracco y Juan Pablo De Santiago.

Visualmente, resulta lo suficientemente competente como para estar a la altura de cualquier estándar actual de plataforma. Su fotografía o diseño de producción, no tiene nada que envidiarle a ningún otro producto. Sí que caben mejoras en su mezcla de sonido, que, en los diálogos o se queda corto o se satura demás.

Tengo que morir todas las noches, es un recuerdo de que la lucha que comenzó como un alarido que clamaba libertad, aún continúa. Ahora en otro punto y con nuevos retos, pero sigue. Es una lección de comprensión, respeto y tolerancia. Pero sobre todo es una crónica personal en la que el amor son las cenizas de nuestro ave fénix.

TORRES, My Brightest Diamond, & Aisha Burns Live Show Review: 1/18, Lincoln Hall, Chicago

TORRES' Mackenzie Scott

BY JORDAN MAINZER

Many times throughout TORRES' set Thursday night at Lincoln Hall, Mackenzie Scott remarked how polite the audience was. While we're from the Midwest and are certainly very nice, I think we were just enraptured. First and foremost, Scott is an intense songwriter whose lyrics are diaristic, who puts her whole body into her guitar playing. Live, she demands attention. You never know when she's going to scream--she chose a good moment on "Helen in the Woods"--or show vulnerability with a creaky falsetto, like on love devotional "Gracious Day". Meanwhile, her scraggly guitars followed her vocal delivery on "Skim", as she shredded, leaning towards the crowd. Her atonal laying on "Sprinter" provided a sharp contrast to J.R. Bohannon's shimmery pedal steel. Over 10 years into playing as TORRES, traversing aesthetics and soundscapes, Scott has developed the stage presence to match the ferocity of the songs themselves.

But then there was another reason we wanted to remain silent and soak it all in: the new TORRES songs from What an enormous room, out this Friday via Merge. For many in the crowd, this past Thursday was the first time hearing tunes bound to become new favorites in the catalog. I watched smiles form on the faces of folks realizing the plucky "Jerk into joy" will become an anthem, as Scott sang, "What an enormous room / Look at all the dancing I can do!" As as it was the band's second night playing these songs on tour, each member relished their opportunities to stand out, from Rosie Slater's driving drums on "Forever home" to Erin Manning's fried synths on "Happy man's shoes". Towards the end of the set, someone yelled, "Play 'Honey'!," referring to the song that made many of us fall in love with TORRES' music in the first place. They never played it. Had this been the last time TORRES played Lincoln Hall, I might have walked away disappointed. But years later, 6 records in, Scott's catalog runs deep enough that the supposed enormity of "Honey" is a small hike compared to the canyon sounds of her most recent material.

Opening for TORRES was two artists who haven't released full-length albums since 2018 but are experimenting live with new material: My Brightest Diamond, the long-running chamber folk project of singer-songwriter Shara Nova, and multi-instrumentalist/former Balmorhea member Aisha Burns. Nova played solo, using percussion backing tracks and samples, walking out to the audio clip of the late, great Sinead O'Connor saying, "Fight the real enemy" on Saturday Night Live after tearing a picture of Pope John Paul II following her a capella rendition of Bob Marley & The Wailers' "War". Many of Nova's songs, both new and old, responded to O'Connor's fearless spirit. Nova's vocals were show-stopping on "Fight the Real Terror (for Sinead)", controlled over the harmonics of the recorded drums on "Imaginary Lover". Finger-snapping new single "Black Sheep" expanded on themes of ostracization and its oft-permanence even when the court of public opinion changes its mind, pertinent to O'Connor's story. In context, All Things Will Unwind standout "Be Brave", too, acted in spirit with Nova's newer material. "Imagine all the flutes and bass clarinets," Nova quipped to old-school My Brightest Diamond fans, but she didn't need to ask us; lines like, "Shara, this is going to hurt," tugged at our emotions more than any instrumentation could.

Woodruff & Burns

Really, it was up to Aisha Burns to yield happy tears from instruments. Accompanied by guitarist Jake Woodruff, she graced us with atmospheric loops, violin, guitar, and falsetto vocals. Songs from 2018's Argonauta (Western Vinyl) hypnotized the crowd, the dual guitar sway of "I Thought I Knew You Well" and impassionedly picked and sung "We Were Worn". And yes, she performed her great cover of Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game", her vibrato and vocal harmonies with Woodruff standing tall against the sensuousness of the original. The performance got me excited for whatever comes next for Burns, whether original material or more clever covers.
