fucking losing it at the concept of a reverse Holmes and Watson like there's this genius journalist who goes around solving crimes and writes about how he does it and then there's his useless himbo assistant who does fuck all and just follows him around absolutely out of his mind on cocaine

Julian Bashir is such a hilarious character conceptually. What if we took one of the most attractive men you’ve ever seen and give him a series of absolutely deranged character traits?
He’s got a foot fetish. He’s one of the most beautiful men alive, but TERRIBLE with women. He loves tennis but for some reason only plays racquetball. He’s got a teddy bear named Kukalaka. He’s a genetically augmented super genius and an absolute moron. He tried to skip rocks over a sentient puddle. His best friends on the station are 1.) a Cardassian super spy and assassin who wants to fuck him 2.) an emotionally repressed Irishman and 3.) a worm. When presented with aforementioned Cardassian spy the first thing he does is form a book club. He’s obsessed with LARPing. He has a spy kink. He’s physically incapable of shutting the fuck up. Every time he tries to go to an academic conference he gets kidnapped. His job at DS9 is his first fucking job out of college.
i wanna ask your opinion on the tintin movie! personally it's one of my favorite films but it also has a distinctly different vibe from the comics, i'm curious what you think of it
oooh the 2011 film... I think it's a lot of fun! The pacing is absolutely insane, the plot just plows through like a speeding train. I remember enjoying how they managed to weave several stories together into one coherent plot. The voice cast is my favourite, everyone basically sounds like how I imagined them in my head, even Mrs Finch!
I did a quick little study of him, rest of my “review” is under the Read More. As usual I have Many Thoughts
It's a film I enjoy with my brain turned off, my main gripe with the film is how Tintin never really has to make any difficult decisions. When Sakharine demands Tintin to choose between Haddock’s life or the scrolls, Haddock is just... pushed into the water before he even does anything?
also Haddock finding Castafiore attractive is just... weird
"What a dish!"
Every bone in my body just knows Steven Moffat wrote that in, he's ruined Sherlock Holmes, Doctor Who, Jekyll and Hyde and Dracula... why do we keep letting him do this
I'm not mad about the CGI motion capture - it's aged surprisingly well and the film utilises the strengths of CGI animation effectively - lot of the camera work and really cool scene transitions would have been incredibly difficult with 2D animation or impossible with live action.
Not to mention that incredible one shot chase scene through a fully modelled city, complete with dust and water simulations... I can hear a render farm exploding in the distance
I actually think Tintin himself looks far too normal, the guy has an egg head and a receding hairline. they gave him cheekbones and a chin. hollywood is not ready for him
in conclusion, professor calculus wasn't in the film so i give it a -2.5/10
