can someone please explain how it’s possible that every single month this year ended as quickly as it started and yet this whole year has felt like an eternity
I’m so tired. I just wanna curl up in Thor’s big muscular arms and use his bara titties as firm pillows for my aching back and neck. He could summon some rain for ambiance as I slept, too. Gosh Thor would be so good for nap time. I don’t even care about how staticy my hair would get, and if he had to adventure??? Just put me in one of those toddler slings strapped to his chest, I’ll drool all over it. He’d let me do that too. He’s just so good. 10/10 quality naps.
which one of the guardians of the galaxy wrote this
Drax
they all want this, Drax is just the only one brave enough to write it down
no but galaxy quest is legitimately the best movie ever
it’s a love letter to fandom — it totally subverts the “gross man-child in the basement” perception of a fanboy and it’s the fans’ dedication to the show that saves the day
i repeat: the fandom saves everyone’s lives
the omega-13 is such a cool idea like it tosses out the paradoxes involved in time travel by so sharply limiting the amount of time you can go back: it only gives you enough time to undo one terrible mistake, and only if it’s so bad and so huge that you realize immediately how bad it is
like no this is a parody movie but it has a smarter plot and more interesting characters and more genuine emotion than like ninety percent of serious sci-fi movies
tony shaloub spends the whole movie high as balls
the aliens are actually, you know, aliens and the reason they look human and speak english is actually addressed and justified
the hero that comes in at the last second to save the ship and the thermians and the whole crew is a teenage fanboy who succeeds because he’s a fan do you understand how amazing that is like patrick stewart initially refused to watch the movie because it looked like it would be cruel to the fans but then he was almost in tears when he actually saw it because it got fandom right and it’s all about the fans
no but the whole plot is centered around people (and aliens) being inspired by fictional heroes and believing in them and using that belief to give them strength and hope and going to great lengths to create amazing things or work up beautiful, accurate theories out of nothing more than love that’s amazing
The BURNING FEMINISM – it’s so intense and such a brutal commentary on the role of women in sci-fi and fan service and a conscious choice to cast the first female action star in sci-fi as the character who is dissatisfied with having to “repeat the computer” as her whole job is so brilliant. Oh, and Sigourney was in her 40s when that was filmed can we get a fucking amen for older leading lady parts too?
The criticism on sci-fi tropes and science – “IS THERE AIR? YOU DONT KNOW!”
The utter alienness of the aliens. Like – they present as humans but they are basically pachyderms octopuses.
Make-up breakdowns of Alan Rickmans prosthetics so his hair starts to show thru
Calling out weird stuff in shitty eps that made no sense – the smashing things??? “THAT EPISODE WAS BADLY WRITTEN!!”
See, this kills me because it’s a pretty fucking fundamental driving force in Eliot Spencer’s character – “you can’t make that promise to more than one person.” And yet he ends the series doing exactly that.
The evil writerly part of my brain wants to know what happens when he can’t be there for Parker and Hardison both at the same moment. Whether it’s a heist gone wrong and he has to choose who to protect, or they’re in conflict with each other and he can’t avoid taking sides – what happens?
Hardison. (At least for the job gone wrong, and assuming nothing in the job fundamentally supercedes it by putting other’s lives in danger.) Parker would tell him to get Hardison out and he’d do it, because that’s what makes them…them.
And when Hardison demands why, Eliot tells him, “she said to say, there’s never a plan M.”
APPARENTLY MY MOMS BOYFRIEND HAD JURY DUTY WITH JOHN MULANEY AND WAS SITTING NEXT TO HIM
imagine going to the jury and seeing him like i wouldn’t be able to keep it together emotionally i’d just be disqualified the plaintiff would be like “he stole my assets” and i’d be like I Have Fired The Criminal Catcher
