once a wildcat liar, always a wildcat liar

Reblog the writers’ fortune cookie for luck!

when someone is a christian they are not constantly asked their position on the holocaust the transatlantic slave trade the extermination of native americans or any of the thousands of atrocities committed by christians so why do muslims get asked about terrorism and jewish people about israel and are grouped in with specific bad people while christians are not required to explain themselves??

Felt that it’s important to share videos like this too.

me watching love you seven times and seeing the costume department actually do right by ding yuxi in every single one of chukong's lifetimes

Big fan of characters realizing they don't get to die. They have to live. And grow. And be a person. And deal with shit they thought they'd never have to. And be fucked up about it. I would like more of this. Enough dying for honor or as redemption. It ain't. You're just a corpse. There is no moral value in dirt time.

"this work is problematic because of how it handles [subject]": reasonable premise for media criticism

"this work is problematic because it depicts [subject]": do not pass go do not collect $200 this is, as a general rule, a functionally reactionary and conservative argument

“Every film is political. Most political of all are those that pretend not to be: 'entertainment' movies. They are the most political films there are because they dismiss the possibility of change. In every frame they tell you everything's fine the way it is. They are a continual advertisement for things as they are.” — Wim Wenders

Love You Seven Times has not been suspended!

What went on was that fans of The Legend of Qin (秦时明月）made a case of plagiarism on Weibo against Love You Seven Times based on the design of Chu Kong's sword in episode 16, plus a few lines of A-Lin's "Grieving Record" ("哀情记") being almost identical to that of the opening song of The Legend of Qin on 16th August [although this is part of the argument, very few people are concerned about this bit]. On 17th August the person who was responsible for sword props on Love You Seven Times made a statement that they were unaware that the sword they bought from the Hengdian prop weapons shop was a merch item of The Legend of Qin, i.e. the sword is of an original design created specifically for and copyrighted by The Legend of Qin. While the official Weibo of The Legend of Qin stated that they were not consulted beforehand about this around the same time, Love You Seven Times announced a few hours later that they were already on to digitally editing the images with the sword in question, which was why the release of episodes 19 and 20 were postponed.

In a statement made after the original release time of episodes 19 and 20, Love You Seven Times apologised to fans of the show and to The Legend of Qin, in addition to saying that they are in the midst of editing related images and in contact with The Legend of Qin's copyright team concerning authorisation. The Legend of Qin has confirmed that both sides are in friendly discussion, and understand that the mistake was unintentional.

Episodes 19, 20, and 21 of Love You Seven Times will be uploaded together today (18th August)

Aaaand Love You Seven Times suspended airing. (For now? But if something suspends it rarely comes back. Due to some sword prop being a copy. Which is an insane thing to fix on but c-ent.)

I wish I say I am surprised or disappointed but nothing with c-ent surprises me tbh.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, COLIN FIRTH! (September 10, 1960)

Here’s my (very dumb) pitch for Mamma Mia 3, it’s Harry’s wedding there is just one small very very tiny issue no one can work out who Harry’s marrying and at this point, they just feel weird asking. So much like the first film, three men are running around a greek island while Sophie, Sky, Cher, Tanya, Rosie, Bill, and Sam try to work out their connection to the plot, I mean their relationship with Harry. So let us meet the potential Grooms: 

First up we have Elijah Thatcher played by Taron Egerton, at first, he seems the most likely to be the groom despite the age gap since he seems very close and connected to the wedding and is really stressed out about the wedding. However, we later find out the reason he is so stressed about this wedding is that he is the stressed-out wedding planner, and let’s just say Harry’s Groom is a bit of a bridezilla

Then we have Peter Beckett played by Hugh Laurie an American lawyer who is very close to Harry, he also knows a lot about the other dads and Sophie, and he also has the habit of flirting with Harry, in truth while he and Harry did have a fling back in the day, they are now simply best friends and he’s the best man. The reason he flirts with Harry is that he enjoys getting a reaction out of Harry’s actual partner. 

This actual partner is Nathaniel Hawthorn played by Hugh Grant a music professor at Cornell, they push each other buttons but at the end of the day, they still love each other. At the start of the film, they think he is the wedding planner since he seemed a bit too into the table setting. But he actually just enjoys getting a rise out of Elijah, who at this point is considering a career change.  Hijinks, misunderstandings, and ABBA take place before the reveal but in the end, the reveal is simple with Nathanial asking if Sophie would walk down the aisle with him, since he’s kinda either step-dad 1 or dad 4 plus he knows it will mean the world to Harry, she agrees they hug and she welcomes her new dad to the family.

We end the film with their wedding it’s big, it’s fun, and it goes perfectly much to the joy of Elijah’s mental health, Peter gets a killer best man speech that ends in him and Nathaniel hugging it out. Just as the night is coming to an end, all seems to be going well Bill finds his boat has been stolen by none other than newlyweds. Harry yells something about being spontaneous, while Nathaniel yells about going on the honeymoon of their dreams. As they sail off into the sunset.

We close with Elijah and Bill sharing a drink and rethinking the life choices that got them here. We then find out Cher knew who the groom was the whole time and just found the whole thing very funny hence why she told no one.
