like i’m sorry but cheating is not the worst thing in the world compared to what i listed above and sometimes in media it can actually be understandable why a character cheats but everyone calls them a monster - which yeah cheating sucks - but then turn around and in the same breath go, oh that terrible abus!ve p!ece of sh!t that’s hot and has a villain aesthetic but does sh!tty things for sh!tty reasons?? they’re my faveee how dare you hate them for valid reasons??
#this is about soooooooo many shows but i cba to tag them all#elena gilbert#delena#stelena#i hate both ships and one day ill compile my thoughts on why but BOTH brothers needed to stay the hell away from my girl#and the fandoms reaction to a traumatised teenager enrages meeeee#cause dont say you hate her and that she deserves to d!e for reaction to things like a TEENAGER would#and then turn around and go but those two brothers almost ten times her age who abuse her and treat her like sh!t#and only like her cause she looks like this girl they knew centuries ago who abused them and almost tore them apart?? oh theyre my favourit#like stfu and go rewatch the show#alsooooo#saraha cameron#my babyyyyy#my angel#my darling treasure who deserves warm hugs and fluffy blanekts for the rest of her life#cause no way you guys looked a teenage girl who was homeless and depressed and going through it who had just had the worst moment#of her LIFE thrown in her face by her HUSBAND try to go back to a time in her life when she was happy and loved and call her a b!tch#but then looked at her phycho brother who tried to DR0WN her and kill all of her friends and shot someone in front of her only to blame it#on her husband and the go oh but hes a typical moody depressed hot guy with a tragic backstory and messed up parental relationships#so i love himmmmmm 🤪#like no no no STFUUUU#also like that wasnt bad enough you then started to ship him with the girl he also tried to DROWN whos friends hes been trying to kill#like this a grown dude who likes to waste his dads money and get high and drunk going after teenagers and killing people#but you love him and then complain about said teenagers acting like teenagers?????#like no you dont deserve these shows go awayyyy

Get Back Rewatch 55 Years On: Day Four
"Lennon's late again" says Paul, as he walks in late. And sweet Ringo just gently, "between ten and eleven is the time" Which means: "Chill babe. He'll be here."
One thing that always gob smacks me is how bored George and Ringo are watching Paul pull Get Back out of the ether. They literally see him do this shit all the time which is insane to me.
His voice is so so so pretty!!! And he's just so completely in his own world. The hunched shoulders. The twitching. The gibberish. The tapping. The twisting.
Obviously this is a song with the original central feeling being let's go back to before everything went wrong but he wants to make it into a meaningless song with both story bits and almost walrus-esque bits. But why is the first lyric he comes up with about gender? Thinking of @scurators posts on Paul and gender.
Ringo's customary quiet really does add significance to his voice, so him singing along with this so quickly says something I think about his support for the song and for Paul in general.
When John walks in he's greeted with a little cocky nod and smile like "look what I've just done while you were late." And then Paul sings "get back to where you once belonged" directly at him before breaking the eye contact. It's one of those heartbreaking Lennon/McCartney miscommunications because Paul is doing this to get John back, but actually it's scaring him away, you know? Paul thinks he has to prove to John how good he is, but John's exhausted with how good Paul is.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
STFU Michael Lindsay Hogg
Paul really does love the idea of being forced out of parliament by cops and honestly so do I. Would've been iconic and might've kept them together.
John's so quiet today and also Yoko is not here. Correlation or causation I wonder.
"They say don't they say charity begins at home?" I love you forever, George. His humor is always so well-placed and so dry (even though he's clearly cracking himself up here). And it steers the conversation away from a direction he was not happy with without poking any bears. In fact, everyone's laughing. Clever boy.
"I've decided that the whole point of it is communication. And to be on TV is communication and we've got a chance to smile at people like all you need is love or something so that's me incentive for doing it." Wise, egalitarian John making a lovely appearance.
And then there's Paul. "I'm here cause I wanna do a show." Lol I love them.
Why do they say "Mr Epstein?" Is it because they're on camera and they want people to know who they're talking about? Does it have something to do with the maharishi telling them certain ways to talk about Brian? Does anyone have any thoughts about that?
Okay so you know how I just said last time how emotionally mature George was? I still think it's generally more true of him than the others, but this right here? This is not it. "I don't want to do any of my songs in the show because they'll all just turn out shitty." Man has issues.
I think it's important to recognize that George and Paul have both said the literal word "divorce" and it's NBD. But when John does it, Paul takes it as "the groups really over and I have to go into hiding and not get out of bed and maybe od who knows." Why? There's another puzzle piece here that we're missing.
"Should we leave you for a while?" "YES!"
On the one hand I'm like "working on Maxwell is the last thing you guys should be doing with this time alone." But on the other thing maybe it's the only thing they can do at this point.
"Mal? You should get a hammer. And an anvil." As he's walking away. Main character in a contrived mad genius biopic. Except it's real.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Joan" sounding suspiciously like "John" ... And then he goes "fool, Maxwell fool." Aka one of their ~special words~ New theory. John hates Maxwell because he dies in it. And Paul's the killer.
"Take it away Johnny." Even though it was George and John whistling before wasn't it? Did George get cut from the whistle chorus? Another straw on the camel's back.
I LOVE that John just does not know any of his own songs. Across the Universe my beloved!
On the glyn/Paul moment featured below, I have three thoughts. 1. Whore. 2. John Lennon villain origin story. 3. The fact that glyn didn't just tell John is striking.
"I wish it fucking would". "Cause I'm down." This lyric going from a self-soothing reassurance that his people aren't going to leave him that he'll always have this beautiful dream he's created with them. To this? I hate it here.
So there is a big emotional and energy difference between their Beatlemania selves singing "Rock and Roll Music" and their current selves. And part of it is due to the fact that they're just not as happy as they were then. But I think most of it is really just that they thrive when they're performing for an audience.

Possibly unpopular opinion (Or perhaps not idk): I love what they have done with Zuko and Ozai's relationship in the live action Netflix Avatar show.
In the cartoon we never get the ~vibes~ that Zuko has a complicated relationship with his father, only that it is abusive and one-sided in the sense only Zuko craves Ozai's approval, while Ozai straight up hates him, wants him dead or has no problem with him dying (Why doesn't he kill him if he has Azula? We don't know, plot has to happen, he sent Zuko to find the avatar in order to get rid of him, probably, or actually canon idk or remember), clearly prefers Azula to him as successor, etc, etc, etc (+ later the comics literally overkilled this trend "she was born lucky while..." omg stfu). Zuko is basically the perfect character to prove the fire nation is not all evil (Oh look, they hate him too, he is inherently their victim too from the very beginning).
So when Zuko switches sides in the cartoon, what I see as an adult rewatching is someone giving up on luxory, physical safety and... that is pretty much it. Sure it is a big deal to give up on those things to do what is right (Few would) and still awesome that he did the right thing in the end, but if you really think about it, he is not giving up that much, he is not giving up anything truly valuable to him. Respect? Honor? Sure he is said to have received it back after Azula "killed" Aang, but we never truly see it. For all intents and purposes his sister has that and wayyy more of it. His father's love and acceptance? Never had it, so he didn't truly "loose it" when he spoke up for those soldiers, got the scar and was banished, it is not really shown to have suddenly popped into existence when he was said to have killed the avatar. He literally had nothing in the fire nation, literally nothing. This could only make "doing the right thing" a lot easier for him, and for the adult audience (At least for me), his arc is just him realizing what is almost irritatingly obvious for us: That no one in the fire nation truly loves and respects him so might as well switch sides (Basically if we weren't also shown that Zuko is compassionate and does care about the horrible things the fire nation is doing, Ember Island Players would have gotten a bit of truth in it).
Now, in the live action, where do I even start? It has been so good so far when it comes to Ozai and Zuko. That man, if he hated Zuko in a cartoonishly evil way almost from birth, he sure doesn't show it. Don't get me wrong, he is just as abusive (Creepily so in many scenes, made me feel so protective of Zuko and Azula), but he is also shown to "care" about Zuko as in having some hope left that he can mold him into another powerful genocidal mini me. Is Azula winning by far? Ofc, she is still the prodigy, I am sure I am going to see flashbacks of favoritism later on. But Ozai doesn't yet seem to favor her in a way that makes Zuko's craving for his approval (Or even Ozai's hope in him as heir) hopeless. It seems, from his scenes with Azula, that Ozai foments the rivalry and competition between the two siblings not only because he personally thinks Azula is the best (Which he also might in this version), but also as a way of control through fear (Especially for prodigy Azula), and to make them (Especially comparatively weaker Zuko) "better", something this version of Ozai appears to think is possible EVEN when he banishes Zuko. Now, he might have done this "to get rid of him" as in the original, but in the live action he seems super open to and genuinely believe the idea that the exile could make Zuko stronger and better, not to mention worthy of the throne if he succeeds. Ozai treats Zuko like the heir despite favoring Azula is all I am saying. Zuko's actions are therefore almost impossible, yes, but not hopeless or even naive. And if this trend of Ozai's respect and "love" (Super on quotes) being achievable continues, Zuko's eventual turn to the good side will be much more powerful. He will have to give up much more after spending a summer with his abusive parent love bombing him for "killing" the avatar. Zuko's choice will be solely based on his findings about the horrors the fire nation has committed and not wanting to be the cause of more suffering even though he could have it all. Even though it was his fate to be his father's "mini me"-> Something terrifyingly likely and not so quickly discarded by the narrative itself as it was in the animated series.
I think the best part about this subtle change in the father-son dynamic (If it was the intention of the writers, I am aware it could have been unintended) is that the scar tm was a direct result of Zuko's compassion for those soldiers and not just the excuse Ozai used to banish him or "final straw" because he preferred Azula sooo much more, as it is pretty much implied later on in the animated series and comics by focusing so much on how much of a perfect victim Zuko was pretty much from birth. The addition of the 41st surviving because of Zuko was also pretty nice, and so is Zuko's relationship with them, he will need fire nation allies when he gets to the throne and this is a good start, something the animated series never touched upon much.
I am on episode 6 btw so my opinion might change. I will edit this post if that is the case. BUT my thoughts on these first scenes doesn't change, they are good imho
EDIT (And spoilers): I just watched Zhao’s revelation where he tells Zuko that Ozai would never let him return and he just wanted to use him to motivate Azula. It does change things and invalidates most of what I said, but taking out just this one scene, as I said, the Ozai-Zuko dynamic is great in this show, and also, Zhao is obviously not the most reliable source, because he was allied to Azula and obviously wanted to hurt Zuko, as he was losing the fight with him. There is also the fact that Azula wasn't watching Ozai and Zuko when Ozai told his son that he was being banished and that it was in part so he could get stronger etc, that was all for Zuko and had little way of serving as motivation for Azula (Unlike the scenes where Ozai praises Zuko in front of her, those could have totally been him bullshitting his daughter to motivate her to work even harder). So all in all this scene doesn't ruin the overall impression I had of the Ozai-Zuko father-son dynamic in the life action show. In fact, it could be taken to confirm one of my impressions which was that Ozai likes pitying his children against each other to push them harder.
EDIT 2: Ozai's reaction to Zuko's possible death is further proof imo that his “test” was very much real (even if almost impossible) and everything I said earlier still stands. He wouldn't mind that much if he died, it would just prove his “weakness”, and he is very pleased with Azula, but he didn't look happy or even indifferent when he learned the news.

hi yes i’m watching the Bad Batch arc of season 7 for the millionth time so here are this rewatch’s thoughts for all four episodes:
Marshall Commander Cody, highest ranked clone in the GAR: “let’s just wait until we’re in enemy airspace to debrief this highly important mission”
watching TBB inflict damage is always so much cooler than reading it, thanks aphantasia
wat tambor can suck a dick
Rex having both his greatest hope and worst fear confirmed is fucking *chefs kiss*
everytime they zoom in on Hunter it’s like a bad video game cut scene and i love it
poor Rex, Anakin puts him through so much
i will never get over Crosshair using Tech’s shoulder as a stabilization
god i wish TBB tv show showed more of Hunter giving incredibly specific orders in increasingly vague numbers
did i mention wat tambor can suck a dick?
yah know what? i’ll say it. Cross deserved that punch from Rex
TBB theme behind Anakin trying to brace Rex for Echo not being there?? kill me now
“Yeah, it’s a lift”
“His mind is ours” STFU TAMBOR
THE IMPLICATIONS THAT ECHO HAS BEEN RELIVING THE CITADEL FOR what TWO YEARS HELP
Anakin sees Echo back from the dead and doesn’t bat a fucking eye he’s seen so much since the start of this war
Wrecker blowing up Echo’s chamber so they can’t use it again warms my heart look at how much Wrecker cares!! (excuse me while i refrain from my full emotionally intelligent Wrecker rant)
I FORGOT ECHO JUMPED ON THE KEERADECK BY HIMSELF MINUTES AFTER WAKING UP FROM A MEDICAL COMA
so much time is devoted to the battle between the techo union and the TBB/Rex and Anakin/the Poltechs and i genuinely just want so much more of it
saying “hopefully it’s gonna be just like old times” to a man who’s been kept as a science experiment for two(?) years is insane
the narrator will not let us forget that Echo’s an ARC Trooper and i’m so grateful for it
whoever decided to give Echo a scomp arm i am kissing you on the mouth
“to be blunt” Tech you’ve never not been blunt in your entire life
has no one informed Admiral Trench that his “algorithm” has been compromised!?
Windu trying the “can we not?” method with the battle droids is so funny to me
“if it makes you feel better, it isn’t my plan” Anakin you little shit
unrelated but since when is the entire back of Jesse’s helmet blue??
Anakin wasn’t super justified in cutting off half of Admiral Trench’s limbs and then killing him, but who boy i love watching him go from Jedi to Jedi-adjacent to Sith
god i love Wrecker, if you’ve made it this far and have Wrecker-centric fics to recommend let me know
and, finally, love seeing TBB give a clean salute to Rex and knowing that they’re only doing it bc of Echo lmao

Mothman's Buffy Rewatch: Season 2, Episode 16, "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered"
Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered
Is this the first time Harmony appeared or I am stupid
Amy is back and up to her old tricks, I can't wait until she gets ratified
"Have a sentence, even." It's these little quips that make me love this show all the more
Oof the tension between Jenny and Giles is no longer romantic
Angel trying to win over Drusilla is funny because I like seeing Spike pissed off (I like him but I like hating him as well)
Cordelia breaking up with Xander right after the necklace was rough damn girl
Amy: that is so mean :(
When I read the episode description I was going to hate on Xander for forcing Cordelia to date him through a love spell because that's... gross and awful but then I watched the episode and it's slightly less awful so uh good for Xander for not being that much of a creep ig. Even though it's still kind of creepy
Cordelia's hair looks really nice in this episode
I find really hard to care about Bangel because of how gross it is for an immoral being to be dating a teenager. I'm sorry Buffy I want to sympathize with her in this plotline and i do feel bad for her, but not in the way the narrative wants me too.
"Will lap dancing be a part of that" EW EW EW GROSS XANDER STFU
This is why I don't like him
WHY DID WILLOW BITE HIS EAR WHAT THATS SO RANDOM
God that whole scene in the bedroom was awful
was making the adult women also attracted to xander really necessary
How did they let buffy into the school wearing that?
LMAO BUFFY TURNED INTO A RAT INCREDIBLE FORESHADOWING
Oz shaking his hand after punching Xander is incredibly funny
Aw no Buffy rat escaped :(
WILLOW WITH THE AXE IM CRYING
The cat yowling in this episode scared my actual cat lmao
Shit Joyce is here she's going to be into him too gross
"Boyfriend. Former!"
Joyce breaking the window genuinely freaked me out
The captions are sending me (Buffy squeaking)
NO DRUSILLA IS INTO HIM TOO WHY
Cordelia just tossing Willow aside sjejdnksej
Joyce is genuinely the most unsettling person in this episode
Joyce is the next main villain of a slasher film wtf
The menacing shots of the rat trap are sending me
Oz is so incredibly chill all the time but I feel really bad for Buffy after she transforms back from a rat 😭😭
Buffy praising Xander for the bare minimum :/
CORDELIA STANDING UP AFAINST HER FRIENDS good for her
Only one episode tonight guys 👍 mom had a meeting so we started later than usual

Tag game: Tag nine (9) people you want to get to know better
Tagged by: @florelia12
Three Ships:
(Why have I just forgotten every show I've seen or book I've read???)
Musa/Riven (Winx Club): I don't think this needs an explanation...
Ben/Leslie (Parks and Rec): I love you and I like you. I mean, come on! There's nothing I love more than a healthy couple (we all know that's a lie cause my #1 ship is Musa and Riven but, like, stfu) that genuinely like each other and respect each other.
Mickey/Ian (Shameless): Me again, proving that I am a hypocrite with my so-called love of healthy relationships while actively LOVING dysfunction. I just love Mickey and I love how much he and Ian love each other. (I also love that Mickey became a groom-zilla - as a wedding professional that one made me laugh a lot). I cried when Mickey showed up as Ian's cell mate. Legitimately, cried 😭😭
First Ship:
Sakura/Tomoyo (Cardcaptors): Now, I watched the American version as a kid where they named Tomoyo MADISON??? and had her very much less in love with Sakura. That being said, I still shipped it. (And yet it still took me 25 years to figure out that I'm not straight?)
Last Song:
Penthouse by Kelsea Ballerini
My girl was ROBBED at the Grammys. Rolling up the welcome mat deserved the best country album award. That shit had me feeling and crying like I was going through a divorce too (I am in a healthy, happy relationship). I listened to 70000 minutes of Taylor Swift last year and yet 4/5 of my top songs on Spotify were from this album.
Last Movie:
My friends and I (try) to do a monthly movie-night where every month gets a theme, then we suggest movies and vote on a winner. We haven't been able to get everyone together since September so we watched our October movie 2 weeks ago... Bring It On: Cheer Or Die. It was awful.
Currently Reading:
Sabriel by Garth Nix. I just got Terciel & Elinor, so I have to reread the whole series. I've read this series 3 times. I highly recommend.
Currently Watching:
...Should be watching Winx Club. Am actually rewatching Brooklyn 99.
Currently Drinking:
Water.
Currently Craving:
Would absolutely kill for cream of broccoli soup rn. With some nice warm baguette.
Tagging: holy shit i gotta think of people... @duchessodette @redhairedgirl95 @onehellofakathy @valtors-bitch @anotsosecretdreamer @charmixpower @skylaryozora @sunacousins @krissykakesss

Bo and Vincent would have had their teens through the 80's and their 20's through the 90's.
I don't think the boys watch a ton of TV--I don't think they've ever had cable, so they have to rent everything or pick it up on the antenna--but I think they both like genre and pulp stuff.
Horror is something they both like but other genres are split. Bo likes stuff with intrigue and action--so speculative sci-fi of the harder variety, heist/crime thrillers, war movies. Vincent likes surreal fantasy and art house stuff.
(I noticed Vincent has an interesting split in his own art--with his sculptures being all about realism and classic beauty. His paintings however are very surreal and allegorical--very Dali and Picasso. I guess he feels more comfortable experimenting in painting. It's easier to unfuck mistakes on canvas--you just paint over them.)
Anyway, Alien would have been a favorite for both of them.
Both would hate Star Trek (too moralizing) but enjoy The Twilight Zone. They're okay with Star Wars but it's not something they'd go out of their way to rewatch. Bo loves Indiana Jones and Vincent's enjoys it well enough. Blade Runner gets close to being too abstract for Bo's taste but he likes Harrison Ford so he indulges Vincent. Vincent liked Eraserhead and Twin Peaks but Bo couldn't stand them. Bo loves The Breakfast Club and (relates hard to Bender but would never admit it out loud) but Vincent resents 80's coming of age stories because they're "stupid" alienating.
They wouldn’t be super up to date on many movies/tv shows past the mid-90's but Bo still picks up rentals and discounted tv shows from store from time to time, when he's wanting to indulge in some downtime.
When it comes to books, Vincent is all about the classic "western literary canon." He likes classics from both antiquity and the romantic period. His favorite book is Frankenstein but he would never admit it because he's embarrassed to be so obvious and would claim his favorite is something like Dante's Inferno or Paradise Lost.
Vincent also likes graphic novels like The Crow and The Sandman and Tales from the Crypt but is generally disdainful of superhero comics unless its something really cool like Ghost Rider, then he'll take a little peak and tell Bo to STFU because "I saw you reading it on the couch last week too!"
Bo isn't much of a reader but he's been known to curl up with a detective novel from time to time--partially because he gets a giggle from the irony and partially because he always liked a good thriller, even before he started murdering people. He also picks up some non-fiction from time to time, usually something related to engineering or mechanics.

the poets as shows i watched religiously as a kid !!!!!!!!
cameron - the animals of farthing wood
Tumblr media
he definitely watched this too young and then got slightly scarred for life from all the animal death and blood. still rewatches it as a comfort thing bc he loves the animals
neil - maggie and the ferocious beast
Tumblr media
idk why but this rlly suits him. like just the general vibes match, he would've kinned maggie and then went back as an adult to watch it and felt so fuckin confused the entire time.
todd - pingu
Tumblr media
everyone stfu this is so todd. he watched this way too often as a child and he always thought that pingu and his brother were a lot like him and jeff. rewatches it pretty often and it still makes him laugh every time.
pitts - 64 zoo lane
Tumblr media

Watching Anti-bug and omg this show is so annoying why am I obsessed with it
Ladybug was completely in the right about not listening to Chloe and sending her away. She had no lesson to learn! And this isn't bias showing but stfu Tikki you've been giving such random ass advice and contradicts itself every other episode.
Why is a theme of this episode "you're nothing without Chat Noir" "we make a team" ??? It seems so? I dunno just weird like there's nothing leading to that.
Does nO ONE LIVE IN PARIS?? I'm constantly thinking this especially at the hotel scenes. No one is around ever????
ANTIBUG FOUND MARINETTE'S PHONE. JUST CLICK OUT OF THE VIDEO CHLOE AND YOULL KNOW WHO TRICKED YOU OH MY GOD
How did Chat Noir even get trapped like that hanging above the ground?? And it's not a deadly fall? For him I mean. At all. He can do so many things to safely get out of that but he didn't. It's weird.
Why hasn't Hawkmoth been doing back-to-back akumas since the beginning??? Instead of doing one or two a week, he could pull out all the stops on that first day of school. Tire them out! Ik he doesn't care about Nooroo so
Speaking of origins, if I was the police that day I'd arrest Ivan. I wouldn't know it's not his fault, I wouldn't know he's telling the truth when he says "I don't remember what happened!". For all I know, he needs to be sent to a science lab for experiments then prison cause of all that destruction and violence. I'm surprised he came back for school the next day!
SPEAKING of the police in origins, "step aside Ladybug! You already failed once." SO DID YOU, YOU JERKS! WE ALL KNOW WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO DO IS GOING TO MAKE THINHS WORSE AND AT LEAST THESE AMATEUR HEROES HAVE ANY IDEA AT ALL ON HOW TO FIX THIS!
Adrien's wild for trying to go to school again after his father told him he can't cause the outside world is dangerous AND after the world just became wayyy MORE dangerous. And Gabriel let him???????? The fuck??? Why???? Also prankster moment of "you will never set foot in that school again.............. without your bodyguard" bruh why'd you say it like that
So many thoughts on this show. So many.
GO OFF !!
i should rewatch anti bug but….ya know. ( gestures vaguely )
i think about how these two should be exhausted all the time !! they are students ?? they have hw ?? not to mention all the extra shit they both do ?? how are they functioning ?? when do they sleep ??
the people of paris (if anyone actually lives there besides the main cast at this point) are way too chill about all this. MOVE (ik its not that simple but I'm just saying there should have been a bigger reaction probably)
the police in Miraculous are honestly so fucking useless (not to far off from real life then <3)
gabriel's motivations season one are CRAZY . i mean we knew he was a horrible person and father but i just will never understand why he decided now that he was actively committing terrorism, NOW his son can go to school ?? make it make sense
i also dont know why he needed a "you just walked the prank" moment, but. good for him ig

“Oh pretty boy! I’m sawwry I got you ded”  [scripted-downfall: I hadn’t noticed the religious imagery starting this early because I didn’t know the significance from Pollo Loco.  That’s interesting.]
He needs to just sit up and go… bitch wtf are you talking about
Pshhhh you’re face screamed guilt shush woman
“I don’t feel guilt. Imma save him… cause he’s pretty. And imma talk to him and tell him a story the whole time… but I don’t feel guilty”
Blahblahblah angsty girl blah
Side note: We should totally watch a scary movie and commentate on it [scripted-downfall: YES.]
No one sees spider girl.  Yeah. Right

She just threw that man by her ears

Nah man you just had her, dummy

[scripted-downfall: This won’t make sense yet, but I didn’t realize that Sky was already here in the pilot.]
Oh wow Normal. That’s dirty.  They just be shipping people. That’s- Is that legal?  IS THAT LEGAL?  I can’t even take my dad in the car with out his death certificate; cops might think he’s cocaine [scripted-downfall:  I don’t think the cops much… care.]
Oh so is he paralyzed the whole show? [scripted-downfall: It’s… iffy.  You’ll see.]
“I need you to do a little leg work for me” Cause mine don’t
Angelics one more time.  [scripted-downfall: You do know the show’s called Dark… Angel.  Yeah?  :)]  On top of a building.  In front of the moon.  How angsty.
-- -- --
I like it!  But alas I cannot watch another!  I’ll publish a summary judgement later though
[scripted-downfall: That's a wrap, folks! Next episode will be... tomorrow? *smiles and puppy-dog-eyes at @typicalopposite and prays it works*]

Rewatching Ninjago:
(With no context other than the episode)
Rebooted episode 1-2
OMG THIS WAS WHEN THEY WERE TEACHERS
Any fanfic recs for modern teacher au 👀
I’ve seen sm highschool aus bc of the movie wheres all the teacher aus
Cole giving Jay his pudding cup and then Zane chilling it after Kai ate it is peak found family
Nickname 1: motormouth (Jay)
I forgot that Jay was such a nerd
They’re so goofy I love them
Nickname 2: Tincan (Zane)
PIXAL!!!!!
Not the love triangle.
Rewatching rlly shows how random it was and unneeded 💀
Kai: I think somethings up with Cyrus Borg (talking about how strange he’s acting)
Jay: …
Jay: You ableist piece of shit
I forgot how fucking funny this show was
Sweet how Jay’s worried for the students
Wu and Nya were so girlboss in protecting the kids
Zane: Cole! Throw me!
Cole: Excuse me?
Zane: THROW ME.
Pixal: This will be the end of your tour…-
Nya: (kicks her in the fucking face)
Cyrus Borg is like a really good character
HFJSJFISJRJE I CANT THE WAY THE OVERLORD CONTROLS CYRUS BORGS MACHINE LEGS AND HE FLOPS AROUND DJSBFJDJNR
Love when Cole casually picks up a car, tree or tosses a mech like its nothing.
He doesn’t even have his elemental powers he’s just that strong
Zane just, dude, be a little selfish. Please.
Nya: Jay makes me laugh… But Cole, Cole’s not Jay.
Girl, if thats your ONLY reason than this decision was made up a long time ago.
Ill hand it to Ninjago it can get confusing at times but they have good pacing
Pixal sounded so dead when she was first introduced
Jay: These nindroids are so much faster-(gets knocked tf out)
Right okay so Lloyd can’t use his golden power because it only strengthens them I get it now
‘Kai’s the funniest,’ ‘Jay carries the humor of the team’, ‘Cole is hilarious—‘ stfu they’re all funny
I forgot how cute Zane and Pixal were you cannot go wrong with them
Theyre really pushing this love triangle to the point of making the characters act uncharacteristic like what
Min-droid my beloved
Mini droid noooo :(
PIXAL NO

Thanks for your reply!! I can reassure you that Glenn's "out of ideas for s16" thing on the podcast likely isn't something that warrants concern (I've listened to all eps), because he's been saying that's been the case since iasip s2 and that ultimately it's probably best for the creative process to go in blank because those ideas tend to be the funniest (relatable writer insecurities). Charlie and Meg said they want to pitch simple ideas again after watching the early seasons so there's hope :)
Tumblr media
Of course!!! And honestly that’s such a relief to know that it Glenn’s just always like that lmao. Like I said, I haven’t been keeping up with the podcast --I fell off after the Fight at the Hamburger store episode and haven’t been back since -- so it’s good to have the context for that. 
TBH out of the three of them it’s always been Rob that I’ve been worried about the MOST when it comes to the integrity of Sunny. Glenn’s my fave I literally put him on a pedestal but also I feel like now we PROOF that sunny is clearly better with him in the writers room. Like it made such a difference having him back for s15. And Charlie (to me--again based of vibes) always seemed the most indifferent, and like maybe little on autopilot when it came to writing the past couple of years. Idk to me s12 is like the last that truly felt like Sunny to me. Sometimes I forget that I have to watch beyond that when I do a rewatch lmao RIP. I do love some of the s13 and 14 episodes but those seasons as a whole fell flat. s15 has some of that back so I’m hoping they get even better with s16. So if Charlie is back in the make Sunny Actually Good camp, then I have faith. Like Charlie and Meg along with Glenn can fully bully Rob into submission. I believe in them. 
Sunny is best when it’s a show no one pays attention to--and then they feel like they can do whatever they want. I want the assholes that didn’t give a shit about winning an emmy. I want the gay-ass love story that won’t play in middle america but they’ll jam it down their throats anyway. Pandering to the vocal mainstream audience is something Rob probably will entertain. But Rob also says he listens to people “smarter” than him and that’s where  Charlie+Glenn+Meg come in to tell him to stfu. Celeb cameos can work if they’re funny (they’ve done it before) but it has to be someone so absurd playing something ridiculous to work on Sunny. Or in this case RR as Mac’s BF bc him and Rob are joined at the hip and if I have to see you both shove your stupid soccer team down my throat, you BETTER kiss each other on the mouth i stg.

Yes, I hate Kizuna too! It's such a bad movie and I've been meaning to make a video essay about it. One of the thigns that annoys me is that in Tri, Joe's whole arc was Kizuna but better! He had to learn that growing up didnt mean leaving behind the people or things you care about or erase your old responsibilities or relationships!
What you say about growing up is exactly what pissed me off in Kizuna. Digimon re-entered my life now, where I've genuinely been independent and living on my own for the first time, and I'm slowly finding myself and realizing that I want to reconnect with the kid in me that I've tried to suppress all these years. Rewatching Digimon helped a ton in that; finding something I adored as a kid and looking at it from a new lens and appreciating it even more.
So those feelings of mine were very influencing while watching Kizuna, and not in a good way. Kizuna basically told us to let go and move on, that staying trapped in your childhood is bad, yadda yadda. But that's not what growing up should be about; nothing is "too childish" as long as you keep being a responsible adult. If you work 9-5, pay your bills, cover your needs, who's to say you're "immature" if you decide you want to sit down and eat chocolate milk cereal while you're not bothering anyone? But no, the film promotes the idea that once you grow up you've grown up, you have to leave what connects you to your childhood behind and move on to other, "greater" things.
And that's what you said about Jou's arc in tri. A lot of people hate tri. and it does indeed have a lot of flaws, but in my opinion it's as flawed as Kizuna is. At least it doesn't try to push a narrative that the characters have to reluctantly fit into, if anything, shit happens in tri. because the characters refuse to conform, Kizuna is the opposite (character-driven plot vs plot-driven characters, hmm...).
And yeah, as I said, I've got a long list of things that annoyed me in Kizuna, and honestly, as someone who just got back into Digimon in my late 20s, at a point in my life where I want not just to appreciate but to also re-embrace the things I liked in my childhood, it felt like it was telling me "STFU and let it go, you're too old for this shit lol" which like... okay. Y'all keep making Digimon shows and films to make money but I'm the immature one here. Okay.
That said, if you make the video essay, send it my way! And don't hesitate to send more asks about it, I haven't actually seen anyone else mention not liking Kizuna so I've felt kinda alone in sharing that view.
