Why are 80s movies so dumb? I'm watching a movie about drag racing. The cars not the people. And it's like a highschool romance kinda coming of age movie?
The troubled but intelligent and respected by his peers broody delinquent who races to earn money for some vague 'big plans' partners with the school's prissy by-the-books president to raise funds to help her save the school and help him raise money for his goal by betting on him drag racing on the local circuit.
They're unbeatable and are obviously falling for each other and have earned $80,000 of their $200,000 goal in like 3 weeks and the principal is barely getting suspicious.

Synopsis :After the person Delphine was going to go on vacation with cancels two weeks before the trip, she is lost. She doesn't want to travel alone, but she doesn't have a boyfriend and can't seem to meet new people. So begins a summer of searching for self-love and the love of her life.
Things I do for my hyperfocus, lol, I went after this movie, bs I'm going to watch it and take notes on the probable 2, reference other than The Great Gabsy. Since this is a French film, it gives me some substance about it idk

no one warns you of this but the more indie & international films you watch the worse american blockbusters look in comparison. be safe out there
#this is so hard for me as someone who works at a theater#“no i haven't seen [biggest movie we have] but i did drive half an hour to another theater for a thai film you've never heard of”#i've also been watching a lot of old silent comedies and boy... stunts these days just don't compare 😔#movies#bri.txt

When I broke the cycle, I made sure that the tear was rough. You carry a part of what should be her, and she carries a part of what should be you.

Prompt 112
Once again, you know who is underutilized in DCxDP crossovers? Battinson. Skrunkly shivering boi. Who we should definitely give children to care for.
Did you know that Jason canonically had a brother named Danny? Well you do now, and it should also be used more.
We all want to give Battinson a robin, so why not give him four for the price of two. He of course gets Dick from the circus- he’s never going to go into public again, this was the first time he’d gone to do something out of his comfort zone for a while and look how that turned out.
And on one of the nights that Dick has to stay home (Alfred insists he must finish his homework if he wants to go out on patrol) Bruce returns to the batmobile to find not one child, but two. Is Danny reincarnated? Just appeared one day? Who knows, but he’s here now and going to protect his little brother.
Bruce might have tears in his eyes when they both hit him in the kneecaps and bolt because even with the armor it still hurts. How he manages to grab both kids he’s not too sure, but he ends up getting them food after they put the tires back. He also doesn’t understand how he’s convinced them into the car but they’ve both conked out and maybe he’s panicking and needs Alfred-
D-Dick why is there another child here? He’s the neighbor, cool cool. W-what do you mean he’s home alone, he’s like, 4?? What do you mean he’s been alone for a week now???
…
Alfreeeeed-
#dcxdp#dpxdc#prompts#battinson#Bruce is a skrunkly lil meow meow the kids feel bad about hitting#Danny felt bad the moment he got a taste of the dude's emotions#Selina returning to Gotham covered with cats clinging to her:#Bruce covered with several small children:#“I have a problem with strays”#Alfred is so tired#He comes back from getting groceries for dinner to three new children#all sprawled out on the couch with Dick and Bruce and a movie credits on in the background#they were watching Gray Ghost and eating shredded cheese#Dick a ten year old: Hi there tiny neighbor you are alone and that is bad so come with me please I have snacks#Tim a five year old who has never been taught stranger danger: omg sure Robin#Dick: What#Tim holding his hand: :)#Danny looking at Batman: He gonna cry :(#Jason: No he aint#Danny: You can feel the misery#Danny: It's like kicking a puppy :(#Jason: Shit u right#Both of them looking into the Batmobile now that the door is open: Why is there a box of coloring books and a kid carseat#Omg it's bat themed#There's also a blanket#Why yes it is for long patrols#Also random but I feel like Battinson would be aided by a longer cape#Let battinson become a batblob and disappear into a corner

Watched Rear Window last week. Went a little overboard on what was supposed to be a simple expression/design study.
Maybe one of the most bone-chilling scenes in film.
Individual shots:
#my art#character design#fanart#seriously tulli and i were watching and we've already seen#spoilers for a 70 year old movie but the scene where lisa's in thorwald's apartment and thorwald's walking up and she doesn't know#we were all cringing and gripping our seats#and the moment thorwald realizes what's he's being watched and stares DIRECTLY into the camera at you. ugughghhg the entire theater made#an audible “OHHHOHOHOHOH” sound of discomfort#such a fantastic movie one of my favs. definitely go check it out it's a wild and really fun ride
