NMTDaily: A Wild Hero Appears
- It makes me a little sad that Bea tweets out this video with “meet the prettier version of me”. You’re beautiful in your own right, Beatrice, and I don’t think Hero would want you to compliment her by putting yourself down. This moment starts to show Beatrice’s insecurities, in a very teenage-girl way. It feels very accurate to that time of life for sure.
- What’s interesting, though, is that this tweet, where Bea thinks of herself as less pretty than Hero, is a direct parallel to and reversal of the moment in a future episode when Claudio tells Ben who he likes (Hero), and asks what Ben thinks of her, and Ben says he prefers her cousin, naming no names. These lines are adapted from the play. Now, I’m not going to say it’s good or ok for the guys to be comparing the girls to each other, even unintentionally, and of course Beatrice has to develop her own self-confidence outside of what anyone else thinks of her. But it is very sweet that at the time she makes that self-deprecating tweet, Beatrice already, unknown to her, has someone who looks at her before anyone else, who always thinks she’s the prettiest girl in the room. It’s just that even he doesn’t know it yet! Ben has thought Beatrice was gorgeous since long before he could admit it to himself, and that just makes me happy.
- I bet Hero’s “you’re not so bad looking yourself, Bea” is her answer to the tweet. She’s too sweet even to directly address it.
- Hero reading TFIOS is so incredibly 2014. (I can also tell she’s an actress and isn’t actually reading it right now because she’s that far into the book and she isn’t SOBBING. I’ll never forget how hard I cried and I’m not afraid to admit it.)
- “Hero it’s Darcy on a horse” being the thing to get her attention is hilarious and adorable and how many Jane Austen Movie Nights do we think she and Bea have had? Definitely some!
- Hero is adorable and we love her enthusiasm and many many video ideas 😆
- there are so many amazing quotes in this episode. “room tour. room tour. ROOM TOUR”; “I am very proud of the witty capabilities of 3-in-the-morning me” amazing.
- Bea is starting what’s essentially senior year in April at a new school. That has to be stressful. Good that she seems cheery about it. I’m sure she’s not at all worried about who else is in her classes…
- Now I want lemonade! Lol. But US lemonade for me. Research is telling me that NZ/Aotearoa lemonade is just basically lemon soda, like it is in the UK, as opposed to the US lemon juice + water + sugar situation. I hope Bea gets to try US lemonade on her travel year. It’s so good when it’s good.
- the Hersula origins! “She’s so lovely I catch myself wanting her to insult me” 💕
- Shoutout to the NMTD Fandom Revival Discord for catching the fact that Bea’s line “what is this cake even for” is a reference to the TARDIS cake Ursula shared on her tumblr, showing that Ursula and Hero surprised Bea with the cake for no reason at all, they’re just that sweet and lovely!
- A brief aside: Ursula’s tumblr has been lovely. She’s posted lots of desserts including one that she said is her dad’s specialty, so now I headcanon that she likes to bake because it’s something she and her dad do together. Ursula lore!
- Poor Meg. It’s tough to be an early bloomer, and you can tell the girls know they shouldn’t be making fun of her for it. I’m glad Hero told Bea to stop, but she was still going along with it and was the one who said the “Queen of Scream” line. We know they’ll learn, though.
- I also notice the link to Ursula’s first video in the description of this episode is now broken and goes to a page that says the video doesn’t exist. Fortunately VOX POPS is alive, well, and next in the playlist. Interesting how links break over time.
- This episode is apparently from before the characters start answering YouTube comments, I checked the comment section. That’s something I’m interested to see whether the NMTDaily emails will highlight, because I remember the characters’ comments being very fun to read! Good for immersion too!
- I’m embarrassed to even admit this, and I blame growing up without cable tv or video games, but I’m just now realizing this title is a Pokémon reference. This show was always even nerdier and more full of pop culture references than I realized! Excited to see if I find anything else I didn’t get before!
💖🥭🦩

Gael García Bernal in Me estás matando, Susana (2016, dir. Roberto Sneider)
(these gifs also feature Verónica Echegui)
[other gael filmography gifsets]
#gael garcía bernal#me estás matando susana#ggb filmography gifs#gael garcia bernal#there's more nuance to this film than you might think from the trailer#can't find the interview now but roberto sneider said he needed to come up with a way to still have the audience kind of root for eligio#and understand why susana hadn't just left him years ago#in spite of what an asshole he is at the start of the film#and realised that casting gael was the trick that made that work#i appreciate he looks sad in all of these but it is a comedy i promise just a comedy in which he's sad a lot#it's interesting to see a mexican view of the usa captured here too#btw you would not believe the effort i had to go to to get english subtitles of this#or even spanish subtitles which would have been fine#but apparently there are no deaf people in spain because spanish region 2 dvd has no subtitles at all other than for the english sections#grrr#(and the only english-language srt file i could find was terrible)#i mean it had a us cinema release the official subtitles must exist somewhere#you're killing me susana

ive not really interacted with many classic who fans until recently so idk if this is controversial or most people agree with this but i gotta be honest most of these serials did not need to be six episodes long. and the dalek's master plan definitely didn't need to be TWELVE episodes long that shit was painful to get through. im not slagging off classic who as a whole like im saying this as someone who's only just finished hartnell's run so it could improve as it goes on but christ a lot of episodes have fuck all happening. don't get me wrong i'm generally enjoying it and i would recommend watching it (well. most of it.) but sometimes it feels like im having to drag myself through them
#rereading this it does sound like im having a bad time im not i promise i like classic who#i just think the pacing was a bit of a nightmare at the beginning#i do expect it to get so much better (pacing wise) esp bc ive seen random serials before and enjoyed them#i watched genesis of the daleks and the robots of death when i was like eleven and liked them#(i have an uncle who is crazy autistic about dr who and owns All Of It so i used to borrow random dvds from him)#micah.txt#whoposting

Among all the other of thousands of things I'd like to draw I wanna put Maverick and Reo in Halloween costumes but my greatest obstacle is. Deciding what for each of them. Like Reo would probably do something kinda more classic especially cuz he's trying to introduce Halloween to Maverick who doesn't really know what it is. Then Maverick would be like DRESSING UP? YOU CAN DRESS UP AS ANYTHING? CAN I BE [guy] from [show/movie] ?!? because Ricky loves the TV. sigh
#that boy and his tv tsk tsk#im kidding he only gets to watch tv like once in a blue moon when the conditions are right and reo can find dvds that arent busted to shit#but i feel like he would looooove dressing up as a character he likes. issue is now I gotta decide what kind of characters he likes#i am planning on still having his costume be scary/horror/halloween related hes not just doing random cosplay i promise. ok#mvrckposting#phx news

by the way the phone call is to david
#rowan chatter#dvd commentary#i think that it messes with the Atmosphere of it to have names in there. but it's him not christian#chrissy doesnt growl when he talks lmao#the correct response to being sad multitexted by your ex in the wake of a national disaster is not to immediately call him#anyway im supposed to still be working on the scarfic (and i am i promise it's just such slow going) but this wouldn't leave me alone#i know it's got a bit less.... 'caelum voice' in it than my other caelum#but i think i managed to hit a balance? i hope??

I know everyone already talks about this on this site constantly but why allow me to "purchase" something I still don't own?? if I can't save that file on my computer and keep it, if you could take it away at any time if you felt like it, if I need internet access to view it, then I do not own that thing!! if I paid the purchasing price would it be SO UNREASONABLE to let me own it?? graaaaaahhh
#I know they do this to avoid piracy and one person buying something and sharing it with everyone. I KNOW#although... can't you already do that with music? they let you have THOSE files! or at least they used to#also yes I have DVDs. I always buy DVDs and CDs for anything really important to me#but those in turn are significantly more inconvenient to actually use so...#what if I pinky promise not to give it to anyone else and I don't think anyone else really wants it anyway#my original post

I see that I'm gonna have to watch Dark Angels and then edit the wiki myself, huh
#original thoughts#dark angel series#fixing the wiki will have to wait till i get the series on dvd#so i can have subtitles and an overall better way of watching it#so fixing it won't happen in at least a year and a half#prolly two years at least really#but!#i promise that i'll try

hello Mr gaiman! loved the series, hated the heartbreak, etc. this is more a technical concern that you undoubtedly had little to do with, but as someone who requires subtitles to process the audio, it would be nice if the styling guide on them was consistent. it was very jarring for the first several episodes to call him Mr. Fell and then all of a sudden the last 2 called him Mr. Phale. (there were several other errors throughout the season, and honestly with as high a budget as this show probably had it's... a little bit disheartening to see corners cut on the subtitles tbh. disabled people love tv too 😭) the good news is that since good omens is on streaming, it must be very easy indeed to update the subtitle files. it's not like having to retract a half million copies of a DVD.
You have no idea how bad the subtitles are. I, who knows what the characters were actually saying and how far the subtitles often were from the words said, can promise cheerfully it's worse than you think.
If I hadn't been on strike I would have seen the closed captions and fixed them. I am on strike and I'm sorry to all the people who use or rely on the captions.
I understand that Amazon are getting it fixed and that our producer, Sarah-Kate Fenelon, is going to be actually going through them against the scripts. And then the changes will go up.
