i didnt watch unknown as it was airing bc i knew it would consume me so i decided to binge it all today. i was correct. it has consumed me.
#i am so unwell#and the thing is there is no specific moment or ep i can point to or rewatch to get out out of my system#there is something about the all consuming atmosphere of the show that’s so dense and heavy it’s impossible to escape it I don’t know how#and i find it incredible how they managed to established that atmosphere and built it so well and reached these peaks of emotion that you’d#think would break all that tension but it just returns 10-fold#like this is how you do storytelling this is how you plot a 12 episode drama#bc you get the peak in ep 6 that is the crux of the story getting revealed but you’re only halfway#there’s still so much story to go and they show all of it#they show that this is a thing that takes time and thought and it perfectly demonstrates how stuck in his ways wei qian is#and i find it incredible how both the actors were able to convey the passing of time and their growing up through their performance you can#really feel how wei yuan matures and how what’s perceived as this childish crush or obsession never leaves bc it was never that it was#always more serious and concrete but in his maturity he can show that#and there’s something so crushing about watching wei qian i swear i choked up so many times watching this show bc they both got to me so bad#but wei qian’s story and his outlook on life is so universal and so true to that older brother role that so many people have#i am rambling so bad i just wanna like… exist in the vibe of this show forever#bc the heaviness of it makes you feel the weight lift in the moments of joy it’s beautiful#unknown

Cape Fear (1991)
"Let's get something straight here. I spent fourteen years in an eight by nine cell, surrounded by people who were less than human. My mission in that time was to become more than human. You see? Granddaddy used to handle snakes in church, Granny drank strychnine. I guess you could say I had a leg up, genetically speaking."
#cape fear#1991#american cinema#martin scorsese#wesley strick#john d. macdonald#robert de niro#nick nolte#jessica lange#juliette lewis#joe don baker#robert mitchum#gregory peck#martin balsam#illeana douglas#fred thompson#zully montero#james r. webb#elmer bernstein#freddie francis#Scorsese fully channelling de Palma for this queasy Southern gothic remake of a beloved bit of Americana kino. this was actually meant to#be a Spielberg project (yeesh can you imagine?) but Marty traded him Schindler's List which worked out better for everyone. initial#reaction to seeing Marty's right hand arm de Niro as the antagonist was‚ admittedly‚ to snigger but give the man his dues he fully embodies#this grotesque‚ repellent boogeyman. crucially tho he has the seed of a genuine grievance against Nolte's (also fairly unlikeable) lawyer#lead and i think that's what really propels this script. the film is stacked with great performances‚ with a young J Lewis really#standing out in a layered and thoughtful performance. the cameos by prev Cape Fear stars are perhaps a tiny bit gratuitous (and it's kind#of sad that Peck's final role was little more than a brief meta injoke) but i get why and it doesn't detract too much from the film‚#particularly once it lurches full throttle into a biblical tinged flood and fire apocalypse for the (very well executed) final act#ott stuff and boundary pushing not just in its freakier moments but in its commitment to underscoring tension with moments of near pure#comedy‚ but i had a great time with this. oh and what a score! i mean i think it's just a re arrangement of the og score but still it slaps

My watch through of classic Doctor Who is going so well (I'm even more attracted to old men now compared to before--)
#my obsession with dilfs/gilfs is really starting to show#also i love four#hes so funny at times and I love how Tom can flip from casual to nearly seething in his performance of him its great#reminds me vaguely of how Matt Smith played Eleven: fun and kind of silly on the surface while harboring actual rage and tension behind it#classic who#i wish i had more thoughtful comments but I just be watching the show and smiling#fourth doctor#doctor who

My sister's thoughts on the Oz community pool AU
Busmalis would be the one doing something in the grass… like he’s there doing something that he’s not supposed to be doing. Something not pool related, like digging a hole in a sand pit. Maybe there's a bank next door.
Rebadow is doing old people swim exercises in a full wetsuit
O’Reily wears a little white visor and white tank top and red shorts (the uniform) and eats customer hotdogs. Like, he gives you a hotdog with a bite already in it and acts like it just looks like that then when the customers complain, McManus comes over and tells O’Reily not to stop eating the customer hotdogs, but O'Reily just gaslights everyone and says he's not, that there's no way he's out here taking bites of people's hot dogs. It was actually them taking bites of their own hotdogs. Why would he eat their food? They just forgot. McManus doesn't investigate even though he says he will if it happens again.
Keller keeps lying to Beecher and pretending to be first aid certified
Sister’s Miguel x Chico fic (as recorded by me) (her first foray into fanfiction “writing”)
SCENARIO:
Everyone is leaving the pool early one day because there’s a summer tornado warning/severe thunderstorm warning and it’s very windy and gray.
SISTER’S WARDROBE NOTES:
Miguel has a dark-gray tshirt, dark, baggy blue-gray drawstring zip up hoodie, grayish-green khaki cargo shorts, “those sturdy flipflops with the canvas straps”. He also has his swim instructor duffel bag stuff.
Chico is wearing red swim trunks, old white (not stark white) ribbed tank top (“I WANNA SEE THEM SHOULDERS”), whistle (essential). I showed her a picture of season 5 Chico and she decided he has short hair and also his goatee as in s5 (“because we want him to be slightly unapproachable-looking like a slightly creepy janitor. A respectable 53% creepy/shabby looking. If he doesn’t have his goatee, the scenario doesn't work because he’ll be too chiseled and just be instantly hit on by all the ladies and that’s not the vibe here”)
STORY:
The locker room is dark, cool, and cement, with overhead, yellowish lights. One of the lights is going to be flickering at the end (but it’s because of the storm, not because we didn’t invest in the lights. We can’t blame McManus for not investing in the fixtures). The locker doors are going to be a military green and the benches are those wooden ones that are drilled into the ground
Miguel is at his locker with the door open. He can see Chico enter the locker room. We ain’t setting up a jump scare here. This is 2700 Kelvin lighting. Sort of yellowish, like a little bit of an intimate glow color. 😛
He’s putting his stuff into his bag from his locker, getting ready to go. Maybe there’s a straggler child and he says goodbye. And then he sees Chico enter and he’s like “oh shit” because there’s like UST between them and Miguel doesn’t want to deal with it and he’s been avoiding him all day. It’s just coming to a boil that summer. (The storm is a metaphor for their relationship… the weight of intense emotions…. REPRESSED)
So Miguel starts to put shit away faster and he ends up like dropping his deodorant or whatever. It skitters across the floor, taking him further back into the locker room aisle. By that time, Chico has arrived to where he is.
There’s tension as Miguel goes back to packing his stuff up and ignoring Chico, who can’t take the silent treatment anymore. He demands to know why Miguel won’t talk to him but Miguel won’t give him a straight answer, either. He’s just trying to get out before the storm, dude.
When Miguel tries to shove by and leave, Chico grabs his arm and reels him around. Slam! Miguel’s back hits the locker.😳 Miguel drops his stuff and he’s confused but also a little seduced. WIDE EYES, darting back and forth. He’s sort of excited because he knows where this is going, and he wants it to happen deep down. Like, if Chico wasn’t persistent, Miguel wouldn’t do shit about it, either, so he’s glad Chico’s the one making the moves. He was hoping for it 👀
He sort of slumps down a bit, right, because he got slammed against the locker. And Chico sort of kabedons him with his elbow. Not casual, though. Full on locked in. Faces inches apart. One of Chico’s hands is, like, on Miguel’s waist, half catching him after he sort of slipped down against the locker. They're breathing on each other all turned on but pretending not to be while they have, like, a whispered-growled conversation 😗; “You’ve been avoiding me”; “no I’m not”; Etc.
Chico says some kind of accusatory stuff but at the same time he’s saying some persuasive stuff because he’s trying to get Miguel to respond to him. But as soon as Chico says something too forward like “we have something... I know you feel it, too”, Miguel pushes him aside in wordless denial and scoops up his duffel. He starts to head out and Chico like calls something after him, like something inflammatory or triggering—basically blasting Miguel with a truth bomb. He's like “don’t run from this”.
Miguel sort of looks back and his leg hits a corner of a bench as he’s fast walking out of there. He stumbles. Chico, who’s already racing to keep up, end ups colliding against him. They both go down. Chico grabs Miguel instinctively and he sort of falls sideways and ends up cushioning the fall for Miguel, who startles out of his own disorientation at the sound of a pained groan beside him. Their arms are slightly around each other on the ground and Chico looks over smiling after a moment because this is STUPID. And there’s all this sexual tension and Miguel finally can't take it anymore. There's like a huge thunderclap outside and the lights flicker and he leans over and they KISS….. They start to kiss.....
And then someone walks into the locker room and they scramble apart!! It’s McManus, checking to make sure everyone’s leaving. Chico stands slightly behind Miguel, who’s the one who ends up talking to McManus. He's all straight faced like the responsible swim teacher he is, like “yeah, sure, we’ll make sure to get home safely” or whatever sassy way he wants to say it. Meanwhile, Chico’s just been staring at Miguel the whole time with those lovey dovey eyes like... His eyes are glistening, full of love and adoration. They’re still like that when Miguel looks over, seeing all of Chico’s love for the first time. Letting himself see it. And he’s like “damn, I am going home with this man” because Chico’s eyes are just like that kind of enveloping comfort, you know. He sees the rice being thrown at the wedding, or whatever Catholics do. All those potential firsts. He's going way overboard with it, like in the show when he gets convinced of things. He loses his whole mind. He sees his whole future in Chico’s big beautiful eyes. The lazy one, too. Miguel's like wow....
So, then they go to the place of whoever lives closer. It's Kiss, McManus interrupts, they're alone again. They sort of hold hands but also a little like no homo. Their pinky fingers touch in the locker room and then, if this was a movie, there would be a knowing little smile between them.
SMASH CUT TO… Well, actually, they’d go to Chico’s place and Miguel would be like “damn babygorl, you live like this?”. There’s like bare walls or whatever. It looks like shit. Chico’s like “shut up” because they’re here to do one thing and it starts with F. But they still gotta pick a fight or whatever because that's who they are. Then they start slamming each other into walls, just ripping off clothes. You know how it is. Then they fade to black. Fade up from black, they’re both in bed aggressively smoking so we know what happened 😏🚬 [Aggressive smoking motions] And there’s some sort of afterglow macho banter about how that sucked (even though they both liked it a lot). The main thing is that it was Miguel’s first time with a guy or whatever and he’s still got his pride so he’s acting all like "Psh, I don't care" and he’s like “Next time I’m going to be on top, show you how it's done” and Chico’s all like [aggressive smoking motions pause] but eventually he caves because he’ll do any for Miguel, really. Also Miguel said 'next time', so you know it's so on with them.
Fin~~

It’s always so funny to me when someone can’t tell the difference between an actor who’s over the top and an actor who is doing an intentionally over the top performance. The former can be super aggravating, I get it—but the latter can be so goddamn effective. Especially when you know the actor already, know they’re fully capable of giving normal human facial expressions and chill line deliveries. And they’re out here doing The Absolute Most all of a sudden? It’s for a reason, dude. It’s almost always for a reason. And once you can see past the camp on the surface, it’s so much fun digging in to what emotions the character is actually hiding.
#this is mainly about servant (and to a lesser degree YJ)#like Ambrose in servant is (pardon me) serving SUCH a chaotic performance#but having known her for decades I know full well that’s on purpose#Dorothy is over the top because she HAS to be. because she’s built walls so high around her own grief that the denial comes out in Crazy#and she fully thinks she’s the only one paying attention. the only sane one in the room.#you get glimpses of her being ‘normal’ in flashbacks#still a little Much. still a product of wealth and expectation. detached from reality to a degree.#but the character she becomes after the tragedy is. A Character.#it’s not the woman she was before. she bricked that woman up. she’s taken her performance from television and made a baby blanket out of it#it’s so. so intentional.#and you sort of get a similar thing going with Hewson in early eps of YJ#totally different starting block. Van doesn’t start out traumatized. but she does start out Big#she’s loud she’s silly she’s being intentionally wacky to get laughs out of people#and some of it comes off a little cringe. because it’s a kid playing a role#this is how you like me. I’m gay. I’m butch. I’m hiding.#if I’m a jester you’ll see what I want you to and nothing more. that’s the plan. it’s working. don’t look at the goalie.#not as a person.#but as the show goes on (or as she’s spending time with taissa) she slows down some. quiets. she’s snarkier. holding tension differently.#Hewson starts the performance at an 11 so they can really delve into who Van becomes when the mask is off#when there’s no point in playing the class clown#when it’s like. ah yeah. here’s the kid who grew up too fast.#here’s the kid who’s scared to death. and angry. and willing to fight to live.#it’s not an overacting thing. it’s VAN overacting to keep her secrets#watch the face so you miss what the hands are doing#actors man. actors are fucking cool. storytelling is fucking cool.#deconstructing the illusion is my favorite thing#(anyway still watching servant and it’s still really. Something Else.)

something something health is a performance; if you are sick, sometimes you can only be sick backstage; in the moment of sickness, you are leaving the role; in the moment of death, you are leaving the stage
#li lianhua <3#mlc#sure yes there's the can't-show-this-head-on of queerness#but there's also something like that with health#and in both cases there are tensions wrt who and how can perform this convincingly#and what bleeds through. and if the audience incorporates it.#(audience in-story)#xiaobao who's named for a sickness he has no longer...#li lianhua who names himself against a sickness that is killing him..#qiao wanmian whose sickness is a path for people to lie to her vs li lianhua who lies bc he's sick#all three of them having their agencies overwritten in such physical ways...#poisoning and curing and saving and being saved and what it means to live sick... i love mysterious lotus casebook

my ship with C/able has to be my defining life achievement thus far
#the way I'm obsessed with my own lore it may as well have been canon. to me.#I am extremely lucky to be able to say this but cable/josh brolin strongly reminds me of 2020 in a really idyllic way#like okay last time I felt free and unhindered enough to dream and imagine. ig I will be running back to his old ass forever now#I still find myself thinking what would cable tell me to do cause I fully trust his imagined advice and comforting presence lmao#LIKEEEE that's daddy. Sorry. ig this is like a comfort character to me. play how to disappear lana del rey#I just gotta imagine him and I feel so safe taken care of and supported like tension GONE#f/o:cable#see I was JUST 2-3 months into the josh brolin thing when the pandemic happened. ig the rest is uhhh.... what you see here#I had the josh brolin + lana del rey brain augmentation procedure (self performed) weirdly enough kinda mom and dad

if I had it my way emrys & astarion would never sleep together before the grave scene, or even. be romantic. there would just be an intricate ritual of astarion flirting, emrys ignoring it or treating it as a joke, developing feelings on both sides, she pretends the teasing doesn’t start to chafe and hurt her feelings because she knows it’s bullshit, he stops being as flippantly flirty as the feelings set in and freaks out about it, also gets a bit confused and maybe even sad because she didn’t even respond to him sexualizing himself so the FIRST PERSON he’s had genuine feelings for both doesn’t have the pressure of being into him for sex which, thats nice. but seems she isn’t even into him at all. and aside from all of this there’s the general comfort and security of being just friends so there’s that added “not wanting to ruin it” aspect. sincere discussions on their personhood that don’t have the pressures of a romantic relationship. fun times. and then rampant miscommunication on both sides culminating into a disastrous sort of “are you mocking me????? stop being an asshole” confrontation with emrys who is Fed Up with the joking. boom. romance. and then more sincere conversations on their personhood.
#oh to have the will to write a long fic … 400k 50 chapters of eye contact and pining and tension filled shoulder brushes#Thinking of scenes I could write that need 30 chapters of buildup wahhhrrrr#emrys who has the emotional stuntedness of an absentee father: [404 error]#astarion who has no idea what intimacy even is after 200 years of performing it: [404 error]#romance is stored in the disastrous moments of miscommunication with someone who is otherwise seamlessly your good friend#pers ⚔️#bg3 spoilers

Forgot to say I watched late night with the devil the other night and thought it was FANTASTIC and it’s rlly a shame about the ai involvement… Dont get me wrong I’m as anti ai as the next self-respecting person but I do truly feel like there’s been a bit of an overreaction to it. Like I think the fact that ppl are quicker to boycott an independent film for an ai generated graphic that’s onscreen for all of .2 seconds over boycotting companies that are actively funding a genocide is..wild to say the least. Really says a lot abt peoples priorities I guess.
#.text#but yeah otherwise the movie is great. great performances great tension great pacing etc etc#one of the most creative setups for a horror film I’ve seen in a long time too!!

Do you have any system you'd love to see a D20 game run in?
Ooh I'm so not well versed in different systems lol but Monster of the Week would be fun! Tbh I would love if they just did a bunch of really loose one shots with a bunch of random indie ttrpgs that have like never been played on an actual play. Just stuff from itchio that have like 10 sales. It would be very good for me specifically.
Tbh I just want them to try SOME other systems. I think that Neverafter could have been much more horror if they'd gone with an actual system designed to be horrifying rather than homebrewing stuff for dnd. Would just love some variety
#i think non dnd seasons havent performed as well for dropout tho :/#watching candela obscura was a very cool dip into how a horror system can add so much tension#this post brought to you by: me#ask#thank you for the ask! :3c

there's such an innocence to when adam and harry kiss for the first time in all of us strangers: as much as harry is quite forward and directly asks if he can kiss him, they're very slow and careful about it. bit by bit they move their bodies closer as they hold each other's gaze and smile just so incredibly sweetly. adam feels shy about it because it's been a long time since he's kissed anyone and even with harry's nature and forwardness even he seems careful. they want to be careful with the moment and the energy between them, as any moment of connection like this can be fleeting and fragile and gone before you know it. adam forgets how to breathe, his mind must be running a mile a minute. and once they give themselves to each other after their first kiss they just let go, let themselves be only present in each other
#idk thoughts because what a sceeeeeeeene#the way andrew haigh directs relationships and the chemistry and the unspoken energy in a scene is magical#like it is so different in 45 years obviously but like there are so many moments in that film that are also very silent and the air is just#THICK with the feelings and thoughts of both characters.#all of us strangers has a lot of that in so many scenes as well.#there are a lot of more silent or slow scenes where the connection and feelings and thoughts are just palpable#its like a third character#a ghost that you can feel the presence of so clearly even if younever see it#and of course that says so much about the performances in it as well#like andrew and paul play this scene so beautifully and they hold that innocence and the palpable energy so well#they move just slow enough so its not dragged out but it doesnt cut the tension too early#they hold that tension and stretch it so well so when they first kiss it isnt entirely broken#and then as they let go you as the viewer also let go#god i LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!! i love andrew haigh and andrew scott and paul mescal#all of us strangers
