Propaganda

Rosalind Russell (His Girl Friday, Auntie Mame, The Women)—Hugely influential in her role as Hildy in His Girl Friday, Russell is perhaps the greatest influence on the character of Lois Lane. Catty, hilarious and charming, Russell is the blueprint for every sharp tongued transatlantic diva. In The Women she wears a series of incredible fits including a wonderful Schiaparelli dress covered in eyes. Later in her career she was the incredible Queer Icon Mame, a model of bohemian life that still resonates today

Nina Mae McKinney (Hallelujah, Pie Pie Blackbird, The Devil’s Daughter)—One of the first black movie stars, Nina worked with Bill ‘Bojangles’ Robinson, King Vidor, and Paul Robeson. She was the first Black Actress to be signed to one of the major studios, MGM, but her career was stalled by a lack of roles.

This is round 2 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

Rosalind Russell:

She's funny! She's glamorous! She stood up for herself! She took her own initiative to make sure her role in His Girl Friday was funny enough to stand up to Cary Grant!

Funny, fast talking, witty, triple threat, so charming that her husband of 35 years watched her in a movie and decided he needed to meet her and he was going to marry her, and got Cary Grant to arrange a meeting. Grant was best man at their wedding. Was a big supporter and funder of arthritis research and was honoured by Congress for her work in that field.

She’s just so fucking funny. She gave another woman a permanent scar from biting her leg in a scene and this is a story she herself told in interviews. This maybe true maybe not piece of IMDB trivia is never far from my mind: At the wrap party, Rosalind Russell was dancing with George Cukor, when Ernst Lubitsch passed her and said, "If you want more close-ups in the picture, never mind dancing with your director, you'd better dance with Norma Shearer!" Without missing a beat, Russell took Shearer's hand with a wink and danced her across the floor.

Nina Mae McKinney:

Hollywood's first Black vamp, and have you seen her dance? 👀

She has such delicate features and such a delightfully impish smile

Winx Musical Casting -The Winx and the Trix

So, yknow how there's those extremely underrated winx stage musicals in the early 2000s in Italy and The Netherlands? What if we brought a production over to broadway? WELL, i've combined my winx fan braincell and my theatre kid braincell and created a casting. HERE YA GO HERES THE GORLS! (the boys will come later)

Bloom: Mallory Maedke

Mallory's mostly well known for being an alternate and the dance captain for the North American premiere (Chicago, Edmonton, Cambridge, and St. Paul) and Broadway production of Six the Musical. She has such an amazing voice that I feel like she could kill whatever material is in the show, both acting and singing material. Her dancing? Amazing. She was the dance captain for a reason.

Example:

Stella: Stephanie Styles

Stephanie's credits include: Katherine in the national tour of Newsies and Lois Lane/Bianca in the 2019 Broadway revival of Kiss Me, Kate, and Autumn on Zoey's Extrodinary Playlist. Her character has been described as having an "adorable flower child meets young Kristin Chenoweth vibe" and if that doesn't describe Stella perfectly? In everything I've seen her in, she just radiates stella energy.

Example:

Flora: Krystina Alabado

Krystina's credits include: Ensemble/Understudy The Extraordinary Girl and Whatsername in American Idiot, Vanden in American Psycho, Gretchen Wieners in Mean Girls, Dot in Pasadena Playhouse's Sunday in the Park With George, Colombina in Hartford Stage's Kiss My Aztec. I've seen some videos of her and I feel like she radiates Flora energy.

Example:

Tecna: Caitlin Kinnunen

Caitlin's credits include Thea in Spring Awakening, Carolyn in The Bridges of Madison County and Emma Nolan in The Prom, which she was NOMINATED FOR A TONY FOR! She's such an amazing triple threat so, I think she could definately step into the wings of our favorite fairy of technology.

Example:

Aisha: Lorna Courtney

Lorna's credits include Understudying Zoe Murphy and Alana Beck in Dear Evan Hansen, Rosalia/Understudy Maria in the short lived 2020 revivial of West Side Story and Juliet in &Juliet, which she's in currently AND GOT A TONY NOMINATION FOR! . I've seen her in &Juliet and she's SO good. Her voice? Spectacular? Dancing? On top of it? Acting? A+.

Example:

Musa: Andrea Macasaet

Andrea's mostly well known for originating the role of Anne Boleyn in the North American Premiere (Chicago, Edmonton, Cambridge, and St. Paul) and Broadway production of Six the Musical, she's most recently in Stratford Festival's production of Rent as Mimi. I've seen her as Boleyn and she is FIERCE! She's also a short queen which definitely reenforces the short!Musa headcanon lets goooo

Example:

Icy: Renee Rapp

Renee's credits include: Regina George in Mean Girls. She's a Jimmy award winner and is currently releasing music. From what I've seen of her, she's SO talented. Her voice is KILLER. *it also reenforces the Belter!Icy pipeline so hell yeah* She's played a role similar to this so I think she could do a really good job as icy.

Example:

Darcy: Isabelle McCalla

Isabella's credits include: Jasmine in Aladdin, Megara in Papermill Playhouse's production of Hercules (pictured) , and originating the role of Alyssa Greene in the Broadway production of The Prom. I've seen her in Hercules and she killled it. Her "I Won't Say I'm in Love' is spectacular and she really gave it her all with this material.

Example:

Stormy: Tiffany Mann

Out of the videos I've seen of her, she has an amazing voice and I really think she has the proper energy from our favorite weather witch. Tiffany's credits include: Ensemble/Understudy Becky and Nurse Norma in Waitress and Jenna Rolan in the Broadway production of Be More Chill (pictured)

Example:

[sisaloofafump]

Actually expanding on my thoughts here bc I do genuinely believe this. Lois as a character is a smart, driven, caring, stubborn, ambitious, playful, and hard hitting journalist. That could never change. However. She also can have a rabid intensity in work that throws away all levels of self protection, bearing on self destruction.

These intensifiers are often blamed on her relationship as seeking approval of, or rebelling against, men. Namely (in order of most approval to most rebellion): Perry, Superman, Clark, Sam Lane, and Luthor. And this is something she and others are aware of. Both as an internal battle and external perceptions of her. She is defined by her relationships to men.

It also pits her against other female characters, especially if it can squeeze a love triangle in there: Lana, Diana, Cat, Lori, etc

So how would lesbian sex fix her?

A) one of her primary modern backstory features is that her father always wanted a son and treated her as a disappointment. Similarly, she has to adopt both a demanding masculine personality and an intensely prim feminine appearance to be taken seriously.

Lesbian sex would push her to recontextualize if/how she wants to conform herself to cisheteropatriarcal expectations - giving her external motivation and weight to rejecting them even further than she already does.

B) she can also be incredibly obsessive over men, especially Superman. While I am focusing on her modern characterization here, I have to bring in the silver age for this point bc it's so extreme then. Lois' main goals in the silver age are to a) marry Superman b) get the story c) help people, and in that order. However we never see a hypothetical happy marriage for her in the Lois personal comics. It's just as important to her wanting to marry Superman as it is that that marriage would be dreadful for her and her career. And yet, she never gives up the chase. Additionally, In the 90s she breaks off their engagement because it won't fit into a stereotypical marriage (she's also worried about loosing her individuality and being flattened into just "the wife" - see point A).

Lesbian sex would push her to acknowledge how her future partners and romantic relationships are allowed to deviate from the cisheteropatriarcal norm. + maybe lighten the psychosexual aspects to her obsession w Superman because he wouldn't be the only non-normative partner option available to her that would potentially let her still adventure.

C) Lois often compares herself to other women - a gap that is only ever bridged when they are facing a similar challenge together. Her response to seeing another woman as beautiful is to immediately consider them a threat.

Lesbian sex would give Lois a new way to appreciate other women that isnt just "not a threat" or "tentatively allied threat that I remian insecure and judgemental about while thinking constantly about how pretty they are".

I could expand further on that last point but I need to sleep. Before I go tho I should mention my parameters for lesbian sex that would actually fix her. Because it wouldn't work with every person - there are so many interpersonal aspects that would shape the outcomes of intercourse. These are my thoughts on her most likely pairings:

Cat Grant: Top contender. Would also fix some of her internalized sexism and slut shaming. This would send Lois' brain into a kaleidoscope of realization that irrevocably change her.

Maggie Sawyer: Would get the job done and get it done well. No bonus points tho and Lois would leave thinking the main way to be sapphic is to be butch

Diana: oh my god it would make everything so much worse. Her obsession with romantic interests would triple in size. This is like if Lois and Superman had sex in the silver age. I don't think the world could handle it

Talia: would make everything worse in the same way that sleeping with Bruce would make everything worse - intensifying all impulsive and self destructive behaviours

Selina: their canon relationship is casually weird enough that it wouldn't change a thing

Mercy Graves: their canon relationship is intensely weird enough that it wouldn't change a thing

Montoya: the sex would be so bad that nothing would change. Lois might even leave straighter than before. Not because Renee is bad in bed, but because Renee & Lois would be disastrous in bed.

Lana: Silver Age wouldn't fix either of them. They'd both remain obsessed with Superman, the only difference is that they live together permanently and have sex five times a week. If it lasts long enough for them to loose their interest in S then it would fix them. Otherwise? Modern Lana & Lois? Can't see it happening. If it did it would be so awkward and have so much baggage between them about Clark that would never talk about it again and Lois (resolving to forget it ever happened) would not gain any self actualizarion.

Lori: amazing and would fix her if it didn't make her fall further in love w Clark instead of coming to any conclusions

i think lesbian sex would fix lois. thank god she's straight <3

Happy Galentine’s Day! (February 13) | Lois Lane’s Female Relationships

“Please, I’m your friend – inside that tough-girl shell is a really tough girl. But you’re motivated by how much you care. Being a part of Team Lois, it’s an honor. There’s nothing you wouldn’t do for any of us.” — Maddy, Lois Lane: Triple Threat

[krinsbez]

Don't worry about me," I said. "Uhm...why?" James asked, hesitating. "Not that we would," Maddy said. She considered. "Unless you were doing something crazy dangerous. So I guess that means we would.

Lois Lane and friends, Lois Lane: Triple Threat by Gwenda Bond; quite possibly the most perfect discussions of Lois' personality/character I have ever seen.

[the-book-ferret]

“The story unfolded quickly as I typed, in a way I was becoming familiar with. There was something about putting the truth on paper, bringing facts into the light of day where everyone could look at them, that made my fingers move faster -- it was becoming one of my favorite sensations on earth.” ― Gwenda Bond, Double Down

"Clark Kent" (Lois Lane: Triple Threat)

Semester’s Reading List

I decided to do another semester’s reading list (if you are interested in my previous one, you can check it out here). Unfortunately, I didn’t get to read as much as last semester, but I guess I just tend to read more during the fall/winter months :)

These are the books I’ve read from April to mid-October 2017, including their summaries and my thoughts on them:

Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen:

Summary: “Catherine Morland is a young girl with a very active imagination. Her naivety and love of sensational novels lead her to approach the fashionable social scene in Bath and her stay at nearby Northanger Abbey with preconceptions that have embarrassing and entertaining consequences.”

Thoughts: I think you can tell that it’s an early work by Jane Austen; it reads a little less polished than her later works in some ways. Some passages were a little drier than usual to read but I enjoyed it a lot! (It probably helped that I had seen the BBC’s adaptation with Felicity Jones beforehand which really made me love the story, I guess). I could definitely relate a lot to Catherine - I also get way too absorbed in the fiction I read (and watch), make up great scenarios how things could go in real life and then get disappointed when reality falls flat ^^  The characters are really great (I love Elinor and Henry Tilney!) and it really says a lot about Jane Austen’s observation skills and about how little people have changed over the centuries that when Mr. Thorpe is blabbering on about how great his carriage and horses are, you can’t help but think of all these dudes rambling on about their cars nowadays ^^ I believe ‘Northanger Abbey’ is currently my second favorite Austen.

Double Down (Lois Lane) by Gwenda Bond:

I already did this book last time - I just wanted to reread it before tackling the third book of the series. You can read about my thoughts on the first two Lois Lane books here.

Triple Threat (Lois Lane) by Gwenda Bond:

Summary: “For the first time, Lois Lane has almost everything she wants. Non-temporary home? Check. Dream job? Double check. Incredible BFFs? The absolute best. And now, her online crush, SmallvilleGuy, is coming to Metropolis. If all goes well, they’ll turn their long-distance friendship into a some-kind-of-fairy-tale romance. But when does all ever go well? Before she can check “boyfriend” off her list, Lois must take down a mad scientist plus a trio of mutant teens, protect the elusive flying man from the fed (including her dad), and navigate her very first date with SmallvilleGuy.”

Thoughts: This book’s mystery wasn’t as intricate as in in the previous ones and TheInventor wasn’t as awesome as I hoped (on the other hand, there had been quite the buildup from the prequels; it would have been very hard to meet my expectations, I suppose ;) Strong as always were the ties between friends and family that were portrayed and the best part was definitely Clark, his interactions with Lois, her family and friends. The teaming up of Lois and Clark - always awesome, fun and badass :)

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling:

Thoughts: The thickest book of the series gives us holidays at Grimmauld Place 12, loveable and badass Tonks, our first introduction to the amazing Luna Lovegood - and who can imagine the HP world without her and the Crumple-Horned Snorkack? We get to read about Hermione, Harry and Ron creating the DA, learn to truly loathe Dolores Umbridge and root for Harry and the gang when they are fighting at the Ministry (the real, big fight with spooky, tentacled brains, huge planets and a creepy, baby-headed Death Eater, among other things)! Really thrilling!

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling:

Thoughts: Well, it’s the volume with the infamous “Yes.” -”Yes, sir.” “There’s no need to call me ‘sir’, Professor.” exchange between Harry and Snape, so what else do I need to say? ;) But in addition to that iconic moment, we also get to know a lot more about Voldemort’s backstory (and his mother’s), which is really interesting, great and funny interactions when Phlegm -I mean Fleur- and Ginny are involved (Ginny fake-retching into her cereal bowl, for example) and Harry’s inner conflict about liking his best friend’s sister ^^ But of course there are also a lot of serious moments and events taking place, which ultimately lead up to the final book in the series.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling:

Thoughts: This book is probably the darkest in the series, which is understandable considering everything that has happened before it. Because of that darkness, the last book is -naturally- a little less “fun” to read (when you think back to the first books,which, again, makes total sense), but it is a really great ending to an amazing book series. Reading the last pages of Harry Potter always makes me want to start from the beginning again, to relive all these adventures of our beloved Golden Trio :)

The Little Shop of Happy Ever After by Jenny Colgan:

Summary: “Nina is a bookworm who dreams of running her own little bookshop. But real life is a bit trickier than the stories Nina loves, as she discovers when she moves to the beautiful wild highlands of Scotland to turn her dreams into reality...”

Thoughts: I definitely related to the shy, introverted Nina who struggles to make her dream come true, putting it off despite really wanting to do it because she doesn’t want to risk her comfortable safety. But when the challenge arises, Nina faces it and handles it quite determinedly. While I really enjoyed Nina’s story arc concerning her little mobile book shop, I was a little disappointed by the love story... I just wasn’t really on board with the two options that were presented (the endgame just didn’t really convince me as a really suitable match, just my two cents). I’m also not really a fan of that trope that the shy introvert needs to get involved with town life to be truly happy (it just kinda made me sad when Nina realized that she had been reading less because of how busy she’d been). The writing style itself was very engaging though (I read the whole thing through in, like, 3 days, so there’s that, too ;) just wasn’t exactly my cup of tea, I guess.

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald:

Summary: “Everybody who is anybody is seen at the glittering parties held in millionaire Jay Gatsby's mansion in West Egg, east of New York. The riotous throng congregates in his sumptuous garden, coolly debating Gatsby's origins and mysterious past. None of the frivolous socialites understands him and among various rumours is the conviction that 'he killed a man'. A detached onlooker, Gatsby is oblivious to the speculation he creates, but always seems to be watching and waiting, though no one knows what for.As writer Nick Carraway is drawn into this decadent orbit, Gatsby's destructive dreams and passions are revealed, leading to disturbing and tragic consequences.“

Thoughts: I had read The Great Gatsby before, but not in English yet and I had always liked it’s iconic cover, so I just had to get this one, of course ;) It’s an interesting read that never fails to get my blood boiling when I realize how superficial and selfish most of the people in this book are... It’s not one of these books that I want to read all the time, but every once in a while I get the desire to pick it up again ^^

Love and First Sight by Josh Sundquist:

Summary: “On his first day at a new school, blind sixteen-year-old Will Porter accidentally groped a girl on the stairs, sat on another student in the cafeteria, and somehow drove a classmate to tears. High school can only go up from here, right? As Will starts to find his footing, he develops a crush on a charming, quiet girl named Cecily. Then an unprecedented opportunity arises: an experimental surgery that could give Will eyesight for the first time in his life. But learning to see is more difficult than Will ever imagined, and he soon discovers that the sighted world has been keeping secrets. It turns out Cecily doesn't meet traditional definitions of beauty--in fact, everything he'd heard about her appearance was a lie engineered by their so-called friends to get the two of them together. Does it matter what Cecily looks like? No, not really. But then why does Will feel so betrayed?”

Thoughts: I think I made it through the entire book in, like, 24 hours. It’s so well-written, with interesting characters and an intriguing story. It’s super funny and entertaining, while also getting you thinking about how reliant you are on your sight when it’s all you’ve ever known. I also liked that it was addressed how something basic as seeing actually requires a lot of learning (for example while Will can see colors soon after his operation, it takes him a long time to really recognize three-dimensional objects, since there are no receptors for certain shapes in our retina, after all - that was also I nice reminder of my biopsychology and cognitive psychology classes, when we learned about perception and the processing of sensory information ;) All in all, this book was just positvely awesome to read!

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen:

Summary: “When Elizabeth Bennet first meets eligible bachelor Fitzwilliam Darcy, she thinks him arrogant and conceited, while he struggles to remain indifferent to her good looks and lively mind. When she later discovers that Darcy has involved himself in the troubled relationship between his friend Bingley and her beloved sister Jane, she is determined to dislike him more than ever.”

Thoughts: I have lost count how many times I have read this book... I really like the characters and their relationships - the Bennets, Bingleys, Lucases and Darcys all have very different and interesting dynamics that I very much enjoy reading and I just adore Lizzie as the quick-witted protagonist... Pride and Prejudice simply is my favorite Austen book and definitely one of my favorite books, period!

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury:

Summary: “Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television “family”. But then he meets an eccentric young neighbor, Clarisse, who introduces him to a past where people didn’t live in fear and to a present where one sees the world through ideas in books instead of the mindless chatter of television. When Mildred attempts suicide and Clarisse suddenly disappears, Montag begins to question everything he has ever known.”

Thoughts: Fahrenheit 451 is another of my absolute favorite books, ever. The importance of thinking for yourself, of looking at things from a different perspective and forming your own opinions instead of just consuming mindless entertainment and following a certain path in life because “that’s how it’s done” is the core of this story. Books provide an easy access to different worlds and different perspectives and therefore stand in the way of having people become mindless drones. Seeing Montag slowly becoming aware that the life he’s leading is not the life he wants to lead makes for an interesting and exciting read. Which is exactly why I keep coming back to this book to read it over and over again ;)

If you’d like to know more about these books (and/or my thoughts about them) feel free to message me at any time! :)

The summaries are from the back of the books or amazon pages.

Holy crap I'm almost done

"How was your day?" "that depends. What day is it?"

"If you mean old as hell yes it is"

Oh boy both versions of Clark on the same earth

Or.... not

How dare they do earth 2 Ollie like that

"You're kinda cute when you squirm"

"What have you been watching a little bit too much BBC lately?"

What the hell happened to the E2 farm?

Just putting this out there. Emil is underrated (even when I don't really know his general reception)

E2 Clark really went and bought Tess a whole outfit

Wait so E2 Ollie took over Smallville? Huh. Rude

It's a nice outfit anyway

So this is how future Clark ended up so dorky lol

Can I just say Clark looks very dapper in this suit

"I had a milkshake on the way in" oof dorky Clark this is awkward lol

"Seems like a real sweetheart"

"I thought this was just a clever name for jail"

Directed by Justin Hartley!

"My entire world just traveled headfirst into a world that makes hell look like the Taj Mahal"

Oh my boys are beautiful

Even Zod still looks decent

Healing Zod with his blood really has come back to triple bite Clark in the ass

Lol Zod is really comparing himself and Clark to Cain and Abel

Oliver guiding Clark though the fight!

Ok I'm not saying I want Clark to be a murderer... but, I kinda am

"I think we have a better chance of surviving your dad's desert than Zod's thunderdome"

OH (Lois just grabbed the gun)

"If you release your pet monkeys here I'd be more than willing to give the wicked witch a personal demonstration"

"You'll be cast aside, out of his good graces" Zod honey you were in Clark's good graces for all of 15 seconds. And he was on red k

Yes because Oliver Queen is your brother Zod. Absolutely

Ollie's not wearing a wedding ring and I'm offended

Ok it was obvious from the start Ollie and Clark would have to face off

Getting kind of tired of these slow mo blood pouring out of the mouth shot smallville seems to be obsessed with

"In terms of crippling wounds I've had worse"

"At least we took care of Zod. Can't say I'll be missing that guy"

3? Weeks? Damn phantom zone

Me: *sees Oliver in a dark dungeon esque vibe of a place* Oliver what the hell are you doing? Oliver? Oliver?!

"I knew you were coming, sneaking up on me is just showing off"

I refuse to believe Oliver will be overcome by this bitch

Darkseid infected a statue? Seems very not legit
