what do you mean jennifer saunder's shrek 2 cover of Holding Out for a Hero didn't play over the entirety of dressrosa arc

#happy new year. it's been about a decade since dressrosa arc first aired #i thought i was well and truly done with that last edit but this struck me like a bolt of lightning #one last go at it to wrap up the year #also. to be fair to doflamingo: how the fuck do you predict or prepare for this shit #(small aside: dressrosa arc is so badly paced you would not believe how many eps i had to download to pull four minutes together) #one piece #op #CJ's op watch-through #CJ's edits #dressrosa #trafalgar law #donquixote doflamingo #amv #monkey d. luffy #monkey d luffy #lawlu #roronoa zoro #zoro #donquixote rosinante #lulaw

colin saying “boyfriend” instead of “partner” or “guy i was seeing” is actually really sweet. the bastard is making me feel things dammit.

#wwdits #what we do in the shadows #i know they’re all queer in one way or another but colin speaking fondly of a boyfriend he had is a nice change of pace #i like colin’s arcs :]

if you could have a limited comic run (batgirl 2000-esque) for ANY minor character, who would you choose?

#im sure i could use another example but. i am a cass stan before i am anything else and i think it makes my point clear #no more than 100 issues at the maximum #great development and characterization #a writer who cares and loves the character #planned arcs and proper lead up and solid pacing #like even if this character (a hero or villain or neutral) never is seen in another comic. this run is held dear to you. #who would you choose? #you can go blorbo route or just ‘i wonder where they were gonna take this/this character had potential’ route. doesn't matter #but I'm just curious :) #ransom note

THE X-FILES (1993-2018)

SEASON EIGHT — I will go on record to say this: that I have seen things that I cannot explain. I have observed phenomena that I cannot deny. And that as a scientist and a serious person it is a badge of honor not to dismiss these things because someone thinks they're BS.

#I realised that if I wanna finish all this before the anniversary celebration I need to pick up the pace a bit jdfbskf so here we go :') #txf #tv #txf8 #txfedit #tvedit #the x files #scifiedit #.gif #thexfilesnet #*txfrewatch #this season is actually quite beloved to me. especially in light of what comes after...but also in its own right I'd say! #mulder abduction arc is a fabulous concept that sadly is underwhelmingly executed (and not just from my point of view of I KNOW he's #gonna be fine...) and at this point we are left thinking that william is a normal healthy msr love child so the pregnancy arc is ok too #the show ended here btw. nothing else happened after and they are still standing in scully's bedroom holding william the ??th and smooching #I swear #oh. also. I LOVE john doggett and I love his and scully's relationship; how they come to trust one another over the course of the season #THAT is the ideal PLATONIC partnership actually. professional trust and respect that grows very carefully and eventually #blossoms into a more personal friendship <3 #*saul queued

- all of us @ the OFMD writers right now

#Ofmd #ed teach #Stede Bonnet #Izzy Hands #Our Flag Means Death #OFMD critical #Izcourse #Blackbonnet #Blackhands #Stizzy #Steddyhands #We could've had it aaaallllll but nope they went for THE most overdone boring old trope of #'redemption arc = death' #I had such high hopes for the writing on this show but.... Honestly just the whole finale was kinda meh #The pacing was everywhere #Ed and Stede's reunion was so rushed #All that satisfied me was Auntie and Zheng #And Pete and Lucius getting married #Tho IZZY should have lived and officiated as the new captain #I am right and you all know it

I'm not in 100 years reading wind, so what's the nightstar stuff as well as the harelight execution scene?

The Nightstar Stuff is that they're constantly making it clear they KNOW that cats can lie about getting the 9 lives, they KNOW that a murderer can receive the lives, and they KNOW that StarClan has never rejected an evil cat before... but then they handwave it away because they don't wanna do anything.

Nightstar/Nightpelt gets namedropped six times and vaguely alluded to a dozen more, but it means nothing to the story. You could have just forgotten him entirely and the plot would happen the same way.

Most of this book is the leaders finding excuses to sit on their butts, but I really only need to share one exchange to demonstrate just HOW stupid this is,

"I'd like to think that the ancestors would speak up." A+ logic Squirrelflight. Just believe that reality won't happen. If you cover your eyes it makes the maneating lion bowling towards your face go away. Soblem prolved.

#and I'm tired and dont feel like talking about the hare stuff rn #bc it will be better when I write a direct comparison between the two scenes and where the references are #and ngl it kinda makes me angry because when you go and read the stone scene... it's ACTUALLY good. #It's tense. It's well-paced. It's got a lot going on. Tiger is a great character and there's all these little unique dynamics #It's iconic for a reason and the Hare killing is just this knockoff version. Infinitely worse. #no understanding of why the scene was interesting or what made it work #And I'm really NOT trying to say the first arc was flawless. I talk a lot about how many of the problems in modern wc go back to it #but god. it's better than where we are now #asc spoilers #wind spoilers

if i had a nickel for every time kon-el tried to commit suicide explicitly right there on the page, i'd have two nickels. which isn't a lot but HEY KON? WHY HAS THIS HAPPENED TWICE NOW. HEY. HEY KON?

#rimi talks #hi. just finished reading superman critical condition arc. i need to pace around my room #steel calling kon a chalupa... cute... #kon fully just being about to shoot himself in the head before steel stopped him? IM GOING TO START WAILING AND WAILING AND WAILING AND #kon

People saying, "The PJO TV series is just as fast as the books, we just don't have Percy's inner monologue to slow us down."

Percy doesn't get expelled immediately in the books. He gets through the entire rest of the semester and then isn't invited back to the school because of his grades. That's already about a 4 month difference to the show.

When he gets to camp, he spends two full weeks in the book training before going on the quest. In the show, it's only a few days.

Why does it matter?

Percy is gaslit by Grover and Chiron for the entire rest of his school year into basically thinking he's crazy. It gives us time to see the build up of the mounting war, in the way of storms and violent oceans. It lets us see how much Percy struggles with school, with being different from everyone.

At camp, he has time to actually start to feel like he belongs somewhere, like he has people who get it. He learns from the people around him, and at least gets SOME kind of weapons training - them cutting out his swordfighting scene with Luke was criminal because it's the first nod towards the fact that Percy will eventually become the camps best sword fighter (and also gives us a nice glimpse at Luke's thoughts on Percy)

I know the pacing needs to be a little quicker because it's a show. But we can acknowledge that the show is moving MUCH faster than the books did, even with the inner monologue taken into account. Cutting every single scene that isn't absolutely crucial to plot diminishes character development, and the characters are supposed to be the core of this story.

#pjo #percy jackon and the olympians #i feel like i only complain about this show - i truly enjoy it for the most part!!! #i love the Medusa changes i love the tweaks to annaneths relationship with her mom #i enjoy how they did the arc problem and i love that they didnt cut grovers scene with his uncle and actually enhanced upon it #but the PACING is KILLING me

another thread that connects kabru and mithrun

#dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #dunmeshi #mithrun #dungeon meshi spoilers #kabru #kabru of utaya #I can't stop thinking about them #i should really sleep #crazy how impactful utaya is and we dont even have a proper arc about it #the pacing would've been skewed thought so i'm glad

really love that the new scott pilgrim revises the end of the comic (scott finished his Emotional Arc and is Ready to Face the Future!) with tearing it down. He did grow, he grew enough to get through about 13 years of marriage before hitting divorce and old bad habits. In takes off scott gets to see this version of himself, and he also gets to be forcibly sidelined and take a backseat to the backgrounders he could barely bring himself to give a fuck about the first time around. And by NOT doing the regimented adventure, he grows more than the original. Takes off says that what scott really needed, in addition to the self respect that he gained from doing his big cool Protagonist arc, is to get some distance, see his own worst qualities from the outside while simultaneously seeing others' bests that he wasn't able to before.

#scott pilgrim #scott pilgrim vs the world #scott pilgrim takes off #i think this is why a lot of reddit chuds are mad tbh like they arent articulating this but i think they can smell it #and they dont like the implication that scotts arc in the original was in any way incomplete #a lot of people seem to be taking some things about the new show real personal #then again it might just literally be that they hate the main dude being sidelined in favor of the wahmen #the precise inner machinations of reddit chuds can be somewhat opaque #idk im glad the original didnt get animated tbh because like its good but im not sure how well its pacing would translate

Hazbin Hotel has its issues (not one writer has read the fucking Bible), but they are going off with their Lucifer design.

#love him #characterization + design are popping off #pacing is shit #character arcs are shit #some of the designs are boring #or just shit #WORLDBUILDING IS SHIT #just ughhhhhhhhhh #hazbin hotel #hazbin hotel lucifer #jester's ramblings #jesters privilege #jester thinks

Blades 2 was good actually

I want more interactions between Lucy's spirits and Natsu (and Happy) ifl there's some good potential there. Like, I'm convinced Natsu and Virgo are kind of besties already (shout-out to my queen for giving nalu matching fits she's a real one). I see him getting along really well with Aries too (does anyone remember the filler ep where Aries wanted a tan and Natsu gives her one????). And the Tartaros Hades fight where Natsu couldn't punch Aries but had no qualms going ham on Taurus LMAOOOO I know he hates that bull 🙏. And pre GMG where they go to the celestial spirit realm and Natsu is horrified ab the food (see attached)(you can see him and Aries having fun here too)(Does anyone see my vision)

#fairy tail #natsu #natsu dragneel #aries #ft #celestial spirits #I see the potential with Gemini too #if the eclipse spirits arc had any of this no it didnt #sorry i cant watch that one #the pacing...
