The reason Hannibal starts out as such a violent and gruesome show and ends very elegant and aesthetically appealing is because it’s Will’s story. At the beginning he says that murder is the ugliest thing; it is shown that way visually while he thinks it. But as his opinion and beliefs start to change after Hannibal’s influence, he begins to see death and murder like Hannibal does: a story, an offering, a thing to be admired. It can mean sorrow, heartbreak, love. It’s an artwork. And that’s why the show progresses, visually, like that.
This is so funny because there’s a phrase in Middle Egyptian commonly translated as “forever and ever” or “forever and for all eternity”. The Mummy is the best thanks for your attention
Reblogging for that rare case of a female character “Well actually-ing” and being badass while doing so
Today I learned that Van Halen have that rider in their contract about “a bowl of M&Ms with all the brown ones removed” in order to know at a glance if the promoter read the entire contract. And the reason they do THAT is because they once had a stage collapse because a promoter hadn’t read the proper way to set up all the specific technical stuff.
So if the band goes in the dressing room or catering and sees brown M&Ms, they know they have to double-check the stage setup for safety.
