NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ACTORS ACTING
Today, as I was walking through the Village, I came upon a location shoot.
Here are Jason Bateman and Jude Law shooting “Black Rabbit,” for Netflix.
“Black Rabbit centers on some serious sibling drama: When the owner of a New York City hotspot allows his chaotic brother back in his life, he opens the door to escalating dangers that threaten to bring down everything he’s built.”
Bateman, along…

Trust Safehouse in Season 8′s Affinity and Season 10′s Memento Mori. Brilliant, they’ll never see us going back to a saehouse that was compromised two years ago.

Watching the fallout tv series and like ok its not agonizing but it feels less "faithful" to the games (3 and 4 lets be honest) and more... shackled to them. There's stuff which is recreations of assets from fallout 4 constantly and it just seems lame because everything in games looks the same because they reuse assets, but it does not convey a real world.
Also the power armour also looks like a 'robot' puppetsuit from 20 years ago. The arms are floppy because the actors arms end halfway down.
Its all a little cheap looking and I fully believe that's in part due to to strict adherence to fallout 4 video game aesthetics instead of creating a distinctive visual language that works for live action tv.
People with zero interest in video games could and did watch The Last Of Us. This is more... Halo TV show. Or the Doom movie.

rec time : i found a show that sits exactly at the intersection of my interests so it might please some of you. it's called white wall (2020, dir. Aleksi Salmenperä and Anna Zackrisson), it's a finnish-swedish tv show, here's the plot : 'A mysterious white wall made of unknown material is found deep underground at the mining site of the world's largest nuclear waste depository.' have fun!

I’m finally getting ready to bite the bullet and start purchasing stuff for this guy, so I sketched out a couple of different options based on what I would buy/make to see what combination of things I liked best -- and here are the final designs I settled on for Lieutenant of Angband, Annatar, and Zigur!
Some notes, for fun:
I adore all the armored First Age designs of him I’ve seen over the years, but I’ve somehow never been able to get behind the idea of a huge painted eye on his breastplate -- even though it looks extremely badass!! I just can’t picture him wearing his own insignia while serving Melkor (and not because Melkor would not tolerate it or anything; simply out of respect for him). Like, I can see it during the three ages while Melkor was imprisoned, especially if one headcanons that he initially would have been met with some resistance to taking up leadership in the interim and had to prove his worth; but not while Melkor was in Beleriand XD
I’m always torn between plate armor and scale mail for First Age, but I think I’ve finally decided to lean towards scale mail just because he had dragons available to him; I imagine he’d absolutely take advantage of the extremely useful and precious materials at his disposal ethically harvested, of course, they were just scales that shed naturally, they are his babies after all
I know the conventional interpretation of Annatar’s hair is a very pale, bright blond (which I’m guessing Shadow of Mordor has something to do with that), but I’ve always seen him as a warmer, deeper blond, kind of like honey. My version of Annatar has always been heavily influenced by Cedric from W.I.T.C.H.
Zigur I have no deep thoughts on; it’s just my byzantine/gothic heart going WILD XD
