The Ghost Ship (1943)

"The man is dead. With his death, the waters of the sea are open to us. But there will be other deaths, and the agony of dying, before we come to land again."

i really wish instead of allison in tom's fantasy in 5x06 it was mcnair. i mean hal gets leo, someone he spent 50 years with and who helped keep him sober for that time but who also brings up just how many lives will be saved if hal dies/doesn't become a vampire. alex gets her dad, someone she's missed since dying and someone who she's known her whole life. but tom gets... a woman he fell in love with in 1 episode but who he seemingly never actually dated for very long and who he realized he was unintentionally corrupting by turning her into a vampire killer so they broke up.

tom does mention allison in the previous episode and he clearly still sees her as a potential soulmate. but who is it that tom mentions constantly? who is it that tom still follows the advice of? who is it that shaped tom as a person and raised him with love? MCNAIR!

allison is still very much an attainable soulmate for tom. they broke up, she didn't die. that's very much unlike hal's situation where leo is dead and unlike alex's where she is no longer able to communicate with her dad.

maybe they just didn't want 2 of the 3 fantasy visitors(?) to be dads, or maybe robson green was busy, or maybe they wanted tom's fantasy to be him being independent rather than going back to relying on his dad. i don't know what the reason was but it really feels like it should've been mcnair. perhaps we could've seen a fantasy where mcnair really was tom's biological father and they were both human. allison could've even been mentioned by mcnair as tom's girlfriend as to not leave her out entirely.

#honestly ill use any excuse to get to see more mcnair but i still find allison such a weird choice #being human #being human uk #being human bbc #tom mcnair #anthony mcnair

Post ppe Puroseka HCs.

Shizuku seems to own hundreds of hats, just, alot of hats, far far too many hats.

Ena spends an obscene amount of her art process spinning on her chair to think of an idea.

Tsukasa semi-frequents weekend Garage. Akito hates this, so he an Ena will show up at Weekend Garage and Akito will try to become a literal phantom.

Akito isn't fond of vegetables, but except for carrots, he'll still try to eat them so Toya doesn't judge him.

Toya can't eat cabbage, not because the taste, but because he gets sick after wards, he seems like the type.

Toya gets his hair cut by Mizuki, and Akito hates it, because he has to sit through a million comments about hair.

Saki is actually super talented at soft-tennis, and seems to be the club star despite it all, She practices with Toya and Tsukasa.

Tsukasa is a massive, obsessive germaphobe.

Kohane is the type who doesn't notice she's finished her snack until she reaches in for more and finds nothing.

Tsukasa us essentially unable to wear a bucket hat, he thinks they are hideous.

Shizuku may not be obsessed with cute animals/mascots, but she is really fond of birds, she really likes storks (lets hope Shiho doesn't tell her about bombirdier.)

An is a really hearty eater, even compared to Emu, a good meal with have her running miles.

Shizuku likes to listen to Bossa Nova music, Relishing in the slow paced nature of the music in question.

WxS has a Minecraft server, Tsukasa dies alot.

VBSxN25 ark server where An, Akito and Ena have been at war for the eternity of history.

Shiho says she thinks the Leo/Need Robson server is childish but is on it almost as much as Saki.

Shiho's hair was grey when she was younger but started to go cyan, So she started dying it to avoid looking like Shizuku.

Meet The Crew! 🏴‍☠️

I've decided it would be fun to develop Eleni's backstory a little bit, and what better way than to dive in to the people who made her the way she is!

I never thought much about doing this before, but I do love fleshing out little details like this, so I decided to pick out some Faceclaims and some personality traits for Eleni's old crewmates!

First and Foremost! The Captain!

Great Captain Klydstein, Eleni's adoptive father.

Moody but with a heart of gold, big guy, bulky. A brute who could out-drink nearly everyone. Never had kids or married, but would be damned if he let a young girl bent on revenge and determined slip away and get hurt. Not always the most emotionally supportive, but he always meant well.

Faceclaim: Ian McShane

☠️☠️☠️

Arne, the Captain's Right Hand Man and Helmsman.

A goofier member of the crew, more like Eleni's fun uncle. He liked to braid hair and often helped younger Eleni with braids and hairstyles. He encouraged Eleni to shave her head after she lost some hair in a battle, and helped her put it into a cool Mohawk.

Faceclaim: Magnus Bruun

☠️☠️☠️

Braggi, Quartermaster.

More serious, liked lurking in the shadows. Quick for a fight, Loyal to a fault. Would rather die than see a loved one injured. Hot-tempered, equal parts bark and bite. Taught Eleni how to use a sword. Also was the one who found Eleni dying in the storage room after she'd been stabbed in the gut and brought her to the doctor.

Faceclaim: Tobias Santelmann

☠️☠️☠️

Hjalmar, Doctor

Not one with the best bedside manner, but he tries. Can name your bones as he breaks them, but prefers to stay to the back or the side in a fight, surveying and watching. Would rather heal the injured than get into the fight himself, so is often dragging his injured crewmates to safety to patch them up quicker.

Faceclaim: Ben Robson

☠️☠️☠️

Arkyn, Navigator

A good sharpshooter, even when drunk, quick tempered, likes to fight out his problems, good at going unnoticed, is the person who knows a lot of people and shady deals. Often the one who 'knows a guy' when they need something done. Best not to question it.

Faceclaim: Austin Amelio

☠️☠️☠️

Audun, Cook

Quiet, mild mannered, prefers solidarity and alone time, often found fishing off the helm to get food for the crew. Good support in a fight, works primarily with knives.

Faceclaim: Leo Suter

Basil Rathbone and Greta Garbo in Anna Karenina (Clarence Brown, 1935) Cast: Greta Garbo, Fredric March, Freddie Bartholomew, Maureen O'Sullivan, May Robson, Basil Rathbone, Reginald Owen, Gyles Isham. Screenplay: Clemence Dane, Salka Viertel, S.N. Behrman, based on a novel by Leo Tolstoy. Cinematography: William H. Daniels. Art direction: Cedric Gibbons. Costume design: Adrian. Film editing: Robert Kern. Music: Herbert Stothart. One of the problems with adapting Tolstoy's novel to another medium is that while everyone knows the story of the title character, who throws herself under a train at the end, at least half of the book is not about her. It's about Konstantin Dmitrievich Levin, the burly intellectual who is preoccupied with the problems of a changing Russia. Though Levin's is also a love story -- he falls for Anna's sister-in-law, Kitty, who initially spurns him because she's in love with Count Vronsky, the man for whom Anna leaves her husband -- he's Tolstoy's surrogate in the novel, just as Pierre Bezukhov is in War and Peace. Downplaying Levin's role in any adaptation of Anna Karenina is as gross a distortion of the novel as omitting Pierre from an adaptation of War and Peace. But it has been done, and often, given that the melodrama of a doomed love is far easier to sell to an audience than the problems of a reformist landowner. In this MGM version of Anna Karenina, Levin virtually disappears: He's played by a tall, bland English actor named Gyles Isham, whose film career was brief and undistinguished. Kitty is at least played by a star, Maureen O'Sullivan, although her presence in the film is largely designed to introduce the character of Vronsky and to suffer disappointment when he throws her over for Anna. This was Greta Garbo's second turn at playing Anna: She had filmed a silent version, titled Love (Edmund Goulding, 1927), with John Gilbert as Vronsky. (The earlier version omitted not only Levin but also Kitty, and was filmed with two endings: In the one aimed at the American market, Anna doesn't commit suicide but is reunited with Vronsky after Karenin's death.) Garbo is the best reason for seeing the 1935 version, although MGM, with David O. Selznick producing, gave it a lavish setting, with cinematography by Garbo's favorite photographer, William H. Daniels. It opens with a spectacularly filmed sequence in which Vronsky and his fellow officers attend a banquet, with the camera performing a long tracking shot down a seemingly endless table laden with food. Unfortunately, Fredric March is miscast as Vronsky, turning the dashing young officer into a rather somber middle-aged man; he and Garbo are sorely lacking in chemistry together. The screenplay by Clemence Dane, Salka Viertel, and S.N. Behrman does what it can to pull together the pieces carved out of Tolstoy, but the ending, even Anna's suicide, feels flat and perfunctory. In the novel, Anna's disintegration, aided by isolation from society, by illnesses both mental and physical, and by her addiction to opiates, is dealt with at some harrowing length, but trimming much of that background means that she appears to be driven to her ghastly end solely by losing her young son, Sergei (Freddie Bartholomew), and by the cruelty of Karenin (Basil Rathbone). Tolstoy, of course, gives us deep background on Karenin that, while it doesn't absolve him completely, makes him far more credible than a stock Rathbone villain.

Daniel:Why did they do female, male, and then some more?

Cathy:It's the Other option. Girls, men, other genders.

Mai:Rather not say.

Daniel:It's a secret.

Mai:It's a- I'm not telling you my gender. My gender is secret.

Li Dailin:Rest. Girls, boys and the rest.

Any thoughts on John Williams (the writer)?

This'll annoy people. I read the first 50 pages of what I experienced as Stoner's stiffly written and grindingly dull naturalism almost a year ago. Then Martin Amis died the same day, so I stopped and read London Fields instead. Granted that Amis has the exact opposite problem as Williams—more sizzle than steak, so to speak, as opposed to Williams's leathery, overcooked cut of meat—I'd still rather err in that direction. Leo Robson, summarizing the alternate tradition of the "minor," the "perfect," and the "anti-Romantic" Williams represents in the history of the American novel, contrasts Stoner with the contemporaneous and similar-in-subject-matter Herzog, a novel wildly alive on every single page, yet without loss of intellectual substance or (despite the tedious scolding of the anti-Romantics) moral weight. I'll finish Stoner someday, but surely the novel is more than that, more beautifully imperfect than that.

Streaming Guide: Wes Anderson Films

Known for his diorama-realism, his neat, playful frames, his crowded cast of oddball characters, Wes Anderson’s films are instantly recognizable. There is a reason A.I.-generated images imitating his style are crowding our timelines.  But is that all there is to Anderson? A style? Critic Leo Robson of the New Left Review calls his films “a storm in a snow globe”, full of characters with repressed…

our darling cashmere perdue ( charlotte jordan ) has been searching the capitol high and low for their older brother who looks a lot like oliver stark, calahan skogman, ben robson, finn cole, ben hall, leo suter, liam hemsworth or up to player. have you seen them? if so you should send them along this way, and you definitely don’t need to message ana ( gcmmislapsis ).

the connection details :

they were close before gloss' reaping, but nothing like they are now. whether he volunteered or not is entirely up to player, but his victory had consequences when cash got reaped the next year — while she did great on her own, it was gloss who worked tirelessly to get her out of that arena in one piece. whatever bond they had before can't compare to the team they are now. cash's life post-victory is what got her to turn to the rebellion, but ( again ) gloss' feelings for the games / capitol are all up to player, she loves her brother dearly regardless. basically, i want badass career siblings, please and thank you!
