so I saw your headcanons for a curtis sister that acts like regina george but I was just wondering if you could do something like that but for a curtis sister thats like karen smith
ANON 2: can you please do the curtis sister that acts like karen smith from mean girls🙏🙏🙏
Never thought of this!!
Tumblr media
You get in Darry’s last nerve.
He thought Soda was dumb, oh boy you are worse.
He’ll ask you to like get him something from the store and you’ll get the exact opposite and some cute tank tops.
You won’t drop out because you like seeing your friends at school.
Dallas and Steve think your dumbness is funny.
They’ll randomly quiz on random shit just to laugh at your answers.
Annoys you.
Soda tells them to knock it off.
Johnny doesn’t know how Pony is related to you and Sodapop.
You are little too naive.
Once you had gotten caught up in something you shouldn’t have been in, the gang had to bring you out of it.
You laugh at ALL of Two-bit’s jokes😭😭
You ask them “dumb questions”, but you were just curious!
“What color is the sun?” “Are you serious?” “I need it for this project!”
Don’t want you hanging with the wrong type of broads.
Scared you’ll get caught up in it (again)
Lowkey sheltered
It’s all love though.

more dialtown head cannons :D
someone requested more of my brain rot so here we are! these may or may not be flesh head related and as always, you can request flesh head designs and/or head cannons for other people you would like to see. anyway, here are the head cannons :]
for some reason in my mind it makes senses that randy’s family is italian-american and from somewhere like Boston, Chicago or New York? idk why i heard that randy was raised Catholic and immediately thought of that. i just have this scenario in my mind where randy goes home for a visit after YEARS of avoiding, and him mom greets him at the door saying things like “OHH thank baby jesus my little sweethearts home! god randle have you been eating well??? you look like you’ve been wasting away” in a Boston accent.
oliver has been journaling literally EVERYTHING in his life since he like 11 when he started going though his edgy phase and convinced himself he could publish it like as a book one day when he was famous. olive would NEVER let anyone actually read the journals, but he does think they’re funny to read over again bc of how dramatic everything was to him when he wrote it.
karen just really fucking loves pretzels. any kind of them. she always has like 5 kinds of pretzels in her kitchen cabinets and keeps the little packs of them in her bag. if she goes somewhere like a mall or a place that offers snacks in any capacity she will ALWAYS ask for pretzels.
gingi’s got a cough syrup guy. no one knows who they are. no one can find them except gingi. if someone asks gingi about it, they just avoid the question as well as they can like they can’t tell you bc someone is monitoring them at all times to make sure they don’t let it slip.
anyways, that’s all the brain rot i have for now :D tell me if you would like more head cannons for different characters or just more in general. i know this was kinda long, so i’d like to thank you if you read all of this. i’m pretty new to this platform, but so many people like me and it makes me feel good :] thank you so much and anything you do to my dumb little posts are appreciated

Take Wyatt Earp as a biopic and it is a superb and fair film. Compare it to Tombstone which was more of a Western and it’s lacking the flair. However, it ends abruptly, and it is miscast. Cosner (and i am a fan) doesn’t really make a good Earp. Dennis Quaid who I am also a fan of, doesn’t make a good Doc. This was 1994, in the 80s I might have a dif...

me: can i please get some sleep?
my brain: do you realize that when darry sees pony’s essay lying around and he reads through the whole thing in one night and that’s when he’s hit with the full extent of the emotional and psychological trauma that pony goes through following the deaths of his parents and then dallas and johnny???? how would darry feel being described as cold and emotionally unavailable when he’s under the pressure of keeping custody of his brothers and providing an income now that his parents are gone?? have you thought about how seeing pony’s perspective would affect darry?? maybe pony’s description of the brothers uniting would warm his heart and he would realize how scared pony was when he was on the run,,,, so do you wanna sleep now or stay awake crying

What are your Face Claims for the Outsiders gang??? 👀
-Mexican Anon (I'm gonna try to draw them but I need a bit of a visual, is it okay if I tag you in the drawings if I do draw them?????)
OMMMFFFF
I'll probably have to reblog this with all my face claims butttt
1. I model Johnny after a Oaxacan model i believe her name is Karen Vega?? Her face structure just fits so much of how I imagine him
2. I model Dallas's hair just. In general after Matt Dillon lol, I don't really have a face claim for him. He's just a white boy with a fucked up nose and he's really crusty
3. For Ponyboy I actually envision him like a younger Taika Watiti 😭 cuz I hc he's half indigenous and Jewish
4. Steve Randle I ACTUALLY HAVE A FACE CLAIM BUT I can't find the image rn so @chaotically-cas I feel like you have the image saved and at ready
5. I hc Two Bit to be Mexican, I don't draw him often so unfortunately I have no hc I just view him like. One of my tios
6. Darry looks very similar to Patrick Swayze because I hc that he's white passing lol
7. I DONT have a face claim for Soda, he's just a very handsome Jewish and indigenous man he's just HANDSOME

Bad Boys (1995)
Tumblr media
Overlong, unimaginative, dated, and too often relying on shootouts or explosions rather than a properly-written script, Bad Boys is a slog. Placing Martin Lawrence and Will Smith together in an action-comedy should’ve worked but the end result is mean-spirited and grating. I’m going to have to pull back on my criticisms because I don’t think most viewers will hate this movie as much as I did.
Miami detectives Marcus Burnett (Lawrence) and Mike Lowrey (Smith) are looking for the criminals who stole $100 million’s worth of seized heroin from the secure police vault. The case becomes personal when Lowrey’s ex-girlfriend Maxine “Max” Logan (Karen Alexander) is murdered (thank goodness, the actress is so wooden she makes you cringe) by the thieves and even more difficult to navigate when Max’s roommate Julie (Téa Leoni) witnesses the murder and is placed in the partner’s custody.
Probably pitched as “one’s a married guy, one’s a player”, the characters prove themselves so unlikable you’d more likely describe Bad Boys as a buddy cop comedy in which one’s a black a**hole and the other’s a black a**hole. In every scene, the detectives argue and bicker, pausing only when they begin bullying someone else. It’d be fine if they could manage to do their job well while tossing insults, but they’re some of the worst movie cops I've ever seen. Always getting sucked into convoluted lies, inadvertently getting witnesses killed, blowing up public property or dropping the ball on their investigation, it’s no wonder Captain Howard (Joe Pantoliano) is always yelling at them but counterintuitively, he always gives the duo another chance.
There are plenty of chases and shootouts - it's what director Michael Bay does best - when the movie takes a wild turn. For reasons too stupid to explain, Marcus must pretend to be Mike and vice-versa. This leads to the married man having to lie to his wife in an attempt to keep the flimsy masquerade he set up from crumbling. Overall, this film treats its female characters poorly. Most are prostitutes or harpies and the worst is easily Marcus’ wife, Theresa (Theresa Randle). In every scene, she nags her husband or makes wild assumptions about his behavior. You never believe they would've tied the knot.
Numerous scenes go on for too long and ultimately, add nothing to the plot. In theory, they’d be injecting laughs but the chuckles are few and far between. Smith and Lawrence were given free rein to ad-lib, resulting in a lot of homophobic and racial humor. It's too bad. They play each other well otherwise.
Bad Boys is the kind of film you’d love to see a sequel to. Not another adventure featuring the duo, but a gritty legal drama in which the two are paraded in court and pelted with endless legal charges for the crimes they committed. I couldn’t stand it. (On DVD, January 8, 2020)
