hellooo sorry for not being active for months !! i will answer your requests when i can. okay so i have this, i wrote it a whole ago and i hope you like it <3333

—

harry sits on my lap because there was no space in the car for him.

and oh god he’s so god damn heavy.

i can’t help but look at him he’s wearing a white shirt with no sleeves and his regular black jeans.

he moves a lot. his calvin cline underwear shows every time he moves. he’s so hot i can’t even describe.

i hesitated to put my arms around his torso but i did and he rested his hands on mine. we’re just friends. friends do that right?

i started talking with louis while harry was staring at the road with his hands remaining on top of mine.

i turned to look at him “harry, harry,” i called his name to get his attention.

“hm?”

“are you good?”

“yeah”

“okay good.” i went back to talking to louis.

harry moved a lot again he tried to get comfortable and we of course couldn’t.

“are you good?” i asked him.

he didn’t say a word instead he just turned to the right and leaned on me, putting his head on my chest and closed his eyes.

he probably was tired.

i played with his hair then after a few minutes liam stopped at nandos because niall begged him while harry was asleep, little snores coming out.

“harry,” i tried to shake him “harry, wake up.” i whispered to his ear and he let out a groan “what do you want to eat?”

“huh?” he rubbed his eye with the back of his hand.

“we’re at nandos lad. what do you want to eat?” louis said.

“oh,” he adjusted his position to the front and looked for my left hand before holding it then he leaned back on me “what do you want, y/n?”

“i don’t know, harry. also you’re quite heavy.”

“sorry, darling, want me to get off of you? i wouldn’t want that because i’ll miss you.” i smiled.

“i wouldn’t want you to get off either.”

“then i’ll stay.” he smiled before he was startled by louis’ question.

“what do you guys want? for fucks sake.”

“don’t have to yell.” harry sits up, annoyed.

“i did not.”

“oh yes you did.”

“y/n, did i yell?”

i rolled my lips “yeah.”

“aha! look!”

then we all ordered what we wanted and got it after like about two minutes cause it was a drive through.

“can you give me mine?” i asked harry as he did what was told, “thanks.”

we all started eating and the rest of the boys were talking except harry and i. we were too engaged with each other.

harry takes a fry from his and tell me to open my mouth “why?”

“i’m feeding you today.”

“why?”

“cause i like to take care of you.”

“why?”

“stop asking why. don’t let me shove that fry into your mouth.” i laughed and he fed me some fries.

he put his sandwich towards me and i knew he wanted me to take a bite but it was from the part we was eating from and i never really thought of sharing saliva

“do you want to take a bite from another place?” he asked.

“no, no i just never shared food like this with anyone really.”

“well i’m your first one, eat.”

well, damn okay if you insist.

we kept feeding each other our food and when we were done we shared a bottle of water. and that’s how you don’t waste water ladies and gentlemen.

i liked the idea of sharing things with harry. it really made me feel quite loved and that he didn’t think of me as nasty?

i don’t know, but he’s so nice.

“hey, wanna switch? you can sit on my lap.”

“yeah.” we switched and he held me tight, stroking my hair, and playing with the hem of my skirt.

i did feel a whole lot comfortable with everything he did. it just felt right.

he started giving me kisses on the cheeks and left a few kisses on my neck.

and i know that louis was very confused. every time i looked at him he gave me a confused look and i uno reversed it.

harry’s hands were a bit too touchy now. i know his love language is touching. but sometimes his hand went up near my underwear it made me quite uncomfortable, because he never touched me like this plus i’m still sixteen and he just turned nineteen. it felt illegal but i quite liked it.

harry even left wet kisses on my shoulders, arms, neck, collar bones, and my cheeks. he also plays with the strap of my dress, takes it off sometimes then puts it right back where is was.

( + ) positive traits : genuine, exuberant, perceptive

( - ) negative traits : distrusting, emotionally withdrawn, childish

｡* ❪ 📂 › BASICS.

𓏲 * ( tom holland, cis man, he/him, dylan o'brien ) ⸺ pictures of KAIDEN LUCAS ST. JAMES have been showing up all over my feed, and considering the last time they were #trending, it was due to him getting arrested after driving his car into a fire station — i’m not likely to unfollow anytime soon. with their dirty blue jeans and $95 plain white tees, i’m not surprised to hear that they are considered part of the BLUE BLOODS. after twenty seven years, they’ve managed to garner a reputation for being more goofy than destructive, but their critics say that they’re more impulsive than generous when they aren’t too busy focusing on their collection of cars that he’s managed to scratch or crash while intoxicated, trying to remember if they’re mad at him because of something he did while sober or drunk and attempting to find himself in the bed of every stranger who casts a glance his way. when they aren’t occupied with their work as an actor, they’ve been sighted street racing. reputation.com has taken to calling them THE CRASH DUMMY in order to avoid a lawsuit ( again ).

｡* ❪ 📂 › BIOGRAPHY.

though he’ll never admit it , kaiden was born into a chaotic family , he spent the early years of his life not with his parents but with his grandmother . if you were to ask her she’d say kaiden was born to be in the spotlight . you’ve got such perfect bone structure , you’re so naturally charming , the public would just love you . his mother is a child star and his grandmother was the manager who propelled her to superstardom . naturally , he grew up watching his mother’s old programs and wishing that he could be just like her . when she showed up to move kaiden and his twin out of their grandparents house he was more than a little angry about it but looking back at it , he can see the wisdom in her decision , the moments of joy she was able to carve out for them that wouldn’t have been possible had she raised them in the limelight but something inside him always itched for more . he got his big break at sixteen when he starred in a MTV's teen wolf . almost over night he was a hit . partying had always been a big part of his life it just kicked into overdrive when he was suddenly making his own money . the first DUI was actually pretty easy to hide . so easy that he forgot that it happened until he got the second one , his mom wasn't so eager to cover up the second mistake and the favors she'd called in the first time weren't stretching as far , even still the news didn’t really affect his life much , he was already done filming the last movie in his franchise and done with his current obligations . he was told to be better , smarter , and so he was . until he couldn't be . the poor reviews of his franchise was a big hit to his ego . he'd begun to see himself as a serious actor , not just someone tied to a teen drama and yet when he took that step it wasn't received well . this led to kaiden having a rather public meltdown , he got so drunk that he punched a cop in the face ( though in his defense acab ) he was sentenced to six months in jail and three years probation . this was just the start of his troubles though . since about 2018 he's been in and out of rehab , jail and various " spiritual retreats " in an attempt to clean himself up . he just recently got out of court ordered rehab for the second time ( he crashed his car into a fire station while drunk out of his mind ) and is hoping that this time will stick . his problem is a bit of an open secret in the industry so he isn’t exactly rolling in job offers but he's trying to keep his head up .

｡* ❪ 📂 › PERSONALITY.

from early on kaiden learned to use humor as a way to keep people from looking past the surface so it’s nearly impossible to get him to take things seriously . not that he’d notice the world ending around him , he’s pretty wrapped up in himself and his family . he’s very very protective of his mother and his sister and will ten toes down ask you what your ‘ intentions ’ are if you try and date one of them . his coping skills are pretty limited so when he’s feeling anything besides happiness he tends to drink , do drugs or have sex . he can be vindictive and mean when he feels like he’s been wronged . he can be kind and caring , he’ll carry your purse for you , keep a pair of flats and a little snack tucked in his backpack because he knows how much red carpets suck but at the same time , he falls in love really easily and often times with the complete wrong person because he’s always looking for someone to care for him .

｡* ❪ 📂 › LIKES AND DISLIKES.

likes : sex / fruity drinks / first person shooters / lemonade / nirvana / skateboards / water guns / cocaine / flirting / his mama / harry styles / disney movies / manicures / sailing / training dogs / long naps / exploring abandoned buildings / staring an argument and then walking away

dislikes : bees / model planes / hearing people out / scratchy fabrics / being wrong / sappy movies / public speaking / getting sick / hugging strangers / anyone who dates his mom or sister / astrology / love / pickles / storms / mushrooms / cheese

What did tom holland do?

He was the 3rd in a line of movie Spidermen so there was already several points against him if someone was already invested in whether the MacGuire or Garfield version was better, which a lot of comic book nerds did and then the MCU made their Peter Parker a massive Tony Stark fanboy when normally Peter only associates with the Avengers out of necessity and prefers being a street-level hero like the Defenders (there's a reason the phrase is "your friendly neighborhood Spiderman") and then basically turned him into Iron Man Jr. with the Iron Spider suit and access to a private jet and drone warfare when one of Peter's defining characteristics is his self reliance and underdog status. He makes his own suits. It's implied that either Aunt May taught him to sew or he instinctively learned as part of his suite of Spider Powers but either way the idea of Peter in a suit he didn't make himself is borderline heretical because it goes against his street level hero persona. Add in the general backlash to the soullessness of the Marvel Studio complex and that's why Comic Book fans have a generally negative opinion of Tom Holland from guilt by association.

The film snobs hate him because back when Scorcese said that Marvel films can't be considered art Tom said "has he actually seen the films?" And while a cute pithy statement that you'd expect when someone insults one's work, it has created a grudge for some people who have dedicated themselves to tearing in to his filmography (which is pretty easy when outside of The Devil All the Time and maybe Cherry, Tom's bread and butter is Popcorn fare.)

There's also a third group that sometimes overlaps with the previous that thinks Zendaya is too good for Tom and wants her to be with Timothee Chalamet, but at least the film snobs and comic book geeks have concrete reasons based in reality.

And that's what you missed on Glee Xitter stan drama!

Not gonna lie, I LOVED the Fifty Shades books not the films. However, I wouldn’t mind seeing a certain Mr Holland in a role like that in the not too distant future…

Oh my... it's not even thirst hours yet lol, but I'll entertain this one rofl 🤣

You know Anon, as much as I would selfishly love to see Tom on a sexy role like this, I kind of feel like it would have to be a role where it was actually kind of serious, and NOT smthg like 50 Shades lol 👀

No offense to any 50 Shades lovers out there, but I feel like a film like that would only cheapen Tom's filmography.... 👀 🥴

You think his fans complained about him being announced for "The Crowded Room", chiiiiile....I shudder to think what some of his fans would say if he got cast in 50 Shades of Grey Part 4 rofl 🤣

They would have a FIT!!! 🤣

Some would probably love it though lol 🤭🤭

I'm all for Tom doing more "adult" films, but maybe just smthg that's a little bit above the 50 Shades franchise, shall we? 👀 lol

wait how did stj wreck his career?

I assume this is about Aaron Taylor Johnson's wife?

I mean, I don't have direct knowledge of this, but it's pretty clear that Hollywood literally doesn't know how to handle him because you can't promote Aaron without acknowledging his wife... Who very likely met him when he was underage, cast him in her movie (Nowhere Boy) when he was 17-18, and subsequently got with him while she was in her 40s and he was 18. It's something people weren't comfortable with in 2009, and that has only become more difficult for people to grapple with as time has gone by.

To be super blunt, conventional wisdom is that young up and comers, especially men, should be single when they first become Known in Hollywood. That way, they can meet with other young up and comers, get buzz for their relationships, and either become known for being bon vivant bachelors a la Leo and Chris Evans, or pair up with a high calibre woman and promote themselves as a dual entity (Zendaya and Tom Holland, much as I think she could do better). So in general? It's a good idea to be single if you're a guy as hot and talented as Aaron, who totally would've been promoted as the Sexy Supertalented Artist.

But not only was he not single, which could be tackled--in interviews, you had this thorny background issue of... How do we discuss his wife... Who is 24 years his senior, hooked up with him when he was a literal teenager, and subsequently had two kids with him in his twenties so that he is now basically... locked in with her forever on some level. It feels really, really uncomfortable. And I don't think Sam is super well-liked in certain circles, her being a groomer aside.

Of course, you could argue that Sam being the older party as the woman made people regard this with more disgust than they would if she was the man, but like--I'm not gonna cry in my cereal about it. And I mean... Even a lot of the skeeziest Hollywood hitters still wait until the girl is like, over 21 to make the relationship known (no cookies, just acknowledging the "unsaid rule" with all that). Aaron was a baby, and you can see it in the movie, which SHE DIRECTED--and Nowhere Boy actually features an excellent performance from him, but it also acts as like... A visual record of him being groomed. You know she's behind the camera. You know she's directing this (sometimes very sexual) content. You can see how incredibly young he is up close and personal.

Oh--Nowhere Boy also dwells very heavily on John Lennon's (real) mommy issues, and speculates on what is essentially a pseudo-incestuous relationship between him and his mom. So. That kind of. Adds to the skeevy effect.

She's also *rumored* to be super controlling of his career choices, not wanting him to play opposite certain women. There aren't a lot of romantic lead roles in his filmography, unless you count Anna Karenina. There have been rumors about him fucking around on Sam, and in general the gossip has always been that she doesn't like him hanging around hot women his own age. God forbid he escapes the woman who again, starting fucking him when he was 18! And she was 42! As his director!

I remember seeing this movie before I knew much about Tom Holland.. In fact when I started to pay attention to tom I started to realiz I had watched quite a few movies of his movies because of Robert Pattinson and Charlie Hunnan, whom I was infatuated with at the time and the robo cop dude.

I thought he was amazing in those roles especially tdatt. So I went back and watched his entire filmography after going to see sm homecoming and that fucker is an Acteur..

So I say that to say this...

I can't fucking wait for TCR. I wanna see the absolute depths he can go to with this story. And I think he's gonna knock it out of the fucking park.

Hurry the fuck up Apple!

I’ve discovered that on Twitter people have these “hot takes” on Tom Holland because they know their tweets will get engagement and might go viral. That’s the power of Tom Holland’s name. Same with Zendaya. Also, his opinion in that tweet is recycled. Every three or four months someone tweets something in a similar vein. If you’re going to be loud at least be original, but that’s probably asking too much.

Yeah, it’s just another example of twitter being an echo chamber I’m afraid. Like most of the ppl posting that same sentiment about Tom ain’t even really into films. They’re just randos who probably saw tweets making fun of his filmography outside of the mcu and decided he’s a bad actor without actually watching those films or even googling shit about them. Ergo, they formed their opinion of him and his acting based on a tweet. Then they reinforce each other by repeating the same nonsense every other full moon. And now we’re just in an endless fucking loop 💀

tom holland being pre sold out is funny considering his first big role was Billy Elliot, as in the role of a working class boy living in Thatcher England where the B plot is literally the miners strikes and unionisation. like did that role not impact him at all

sorry i don't have tom holland's filmography memorized weirdo.

Thank you for Sony slander!!! It's actually crazy that they got him doing a video game film that he honestly saved because of his charm and acting. That really was him doing all the heavy work promoting. Like the fact Amy was able to get Z a great script and director for an adult film like Challengwrs and Tom is doing a biopic with Paul King without a script and mostly does films with cgi. No shade to Paddington and Wonka fans, but to me, he doesn't have a distinct directing style, is beyond bonkers. I think they view him as a cash cow, and to be fair, he is. He promotes the f out of his projects, like he himself is the main drive to see his films. I don't remember any of the directors for TCR being interviewed about working with Tom.

I also blame Tom's agents as well. There's one who works with Austin too, and he has helped him go from a c-list actor to now his filmography is Taratino, Baz, Denis, and allegedly Ari aster, and now i saw on a blog hes in talks to work with Darren Aronofsky. Like, what is he doing for Tom????

I think his other agent is to blame cause. Not all money is good money. My fear is that by the time Tom decides enough to giving hi while heart to soulless franchises, there will be other actors who are similar build and talent to him, will be the ones taking his roles because they had better opportunities and aren't attached to a franchise and are younger.

Again, I am aware he is a millionaire and wants a life away from hollywood, but that industry is always changing, and there might not care for the next Tom Holland film if there is Barry keoghan. ( I use him because he's a similar height to Tom, not to compare).

I think people will definitely care for the next tom movie, he'll be fine lol, but I totally get the frustration bc even tho Tom isn't the flop actor most people want him to be, I think he deserves better than whatever sony was/is offering him, and enough with appleTV projects bc they're a flop ass streaming platform! 🤓. I'm not sure if his agents should be blamed for some of his choices bc I think it was more of a case where they were still trying to figure out in "what box this actor belongs to" "is he an action star or does he wants to make more indies?". The Russo brothers offered him Cherry, "Sony" offered him Uncharted, with TCR something similar happened too.... But at the same time I'm like "yeah maybe it's partially their fault too".

Spring Fling - Movies For Sakura Season

Nothing puts you in mind for spring quite like these quintessential Japanese sakura and the warm, fresh breezes of April.

I think we can find a middle ground between bashing every single thing you're fav is doing and prohibiting yourself from having discussions about the goods AND the bads of your fav career. I think you can do both. And can still keep your stan card. It's not exclusive.

I can say I hated Cherry and Uncharted, and still want better for him because I genuinely think he is talented and love to see him on my screen. I follow him because of his personality and I think he is a great actor with potential. I don't think we should turn this into a "good fan/bad fan" debate just because you criticize something (movies) that are meant to be criticized. If we didn't had opinions, what would be the point ? It doesn't have to be always negative, and I agree that fans acting like he has the worst career in the world rn is over dramatic. But wondering why we have 0 casting announcement ? Looking back at his filmography and saying you dont like most of it ? I don't think it's that far of a reach.

Whoa wait a second Anon.... You "hated" "Uncharted"? Whaaaa? 🥴 TOM in a wet t-shirt couldn't even save the movie for you? 😂

This is the first time I've heard someone say they actually HATED the movie. But hey, I guess art is subjective. 🤷🏾‍♀️

To me it was just an enjoyable popcorn 🍿 flick with some great eye-candy 😍 Not to be taken too seriously. I enjoyed it! Reminded me of a cross btwn Indiana Jones and Lara Croft. 👍🏾

Anyway....

I don't usually think there's anything wrong with having a healthy discussion about your fave and their work. As you all know, I love discourse lol. 😂

Do you know how many films I haven't really cared for, or thought were dumb that some of my acting faves have been in lol? 😂 I either just watch simply to enjoy them in it, or just make jokes about how crappy the movie was, but I still love the actor and appreciate their projects that I DO enjoy. 🤷🏾‍♀️

The problem I mainly see with SOME of Tom's fans however is that it seems like this "constructive criticism" gets a bit out of hand, fans go a little too far, and it almost comes across as being a bit mean to me. 😔🤷🏾‍♀️

I feel like SOME fans take things a bit too seriously, and don't know how to just ENJOY an actor, enjoy the journey they're on at this moment in time, and simply just relax, be patient, and appreciate them for them.....instead of nitpicking over every single little thing. 🥴

Do you know how LONG it's taken some in the industry to get their "big break"? 👀 Or to FINALLY be recognized for their acting talent? Sometimes it takes some ppl a long time! Some fans have been waiting YEARS.

Say what you will about Marvel films, but Marvel DEFINITELY helped put Tom Holland on ppl's radar. It probably would have taken Tom a LOT longer to even get in people's view had it not been for Marvel. And he certainly wouldn't have had so much close access to such incredible acting talent in the industry who constantly pat him on the back of it weren't for Marvel. So Marvel has done Tom good imo.

I almost feel like the complaints some fans have about his career aren't even really about Tom tbh.... I feel like it's more so about competition or smthg, and I just don't feel like it's even necessary.

Tom is a GOOD actor. He will always have roles waiting for him because he's actually talented. I honestly don't know why some fans even worry? Jmho 🤷🏾‍♀️

I could see if he were a BAD actor.... but he's not! 🥴

Long story short, there's nothing wrong with being honest about how you feel about your fave's work. You can still hate a project but love the person. 🤷🏾‍♀️ But sometimes it just feels like some just complain JUST to complain. That's my only gripe.

A Review of Tom Holland’s Complete Filmography

According to imdb

I had a lot of free time, so I decided to watch every movie Tom has acted in, according to his imdb page. I review each film, some with separate spoiler-free reviews.

spoilers under the cut

Arrietty (UK dub)

Not much to say about this one, so both reviews will go together. Tom plays Sho, the sick boy who finds Arrietty and her family. Quite similar to the Disney version, though a little less childish and fun. An enjoyable viewing; I find both English dubs interchangeable.

The Impossible (2012)

Wow. For my spoiler-free review, I just gotta say: watch this movie!! The whole cast is phenomenal, and Tom really does carry the story. He’s a 12-year-old boy on Holiday with his family when a tsunami hits, and we watch his struggle to get his mother medical attention and reunite with his father and little brothers. For such a young character, it is truly remarkable to watch him steal every scene. Definitely recommend!

Spoilers: I cannot stress enough how amazing this cast was. Of course, the movie had its flaws, with three of the main cast being portrayed by children, but it was still remarkable. The way Tom shows Lucas’s character development was remarkably done, and every time Lucas breaks or begins to scream, you’re reminded how young these children are. Ewan McGregor, as always, played his role to the best of his ability, and as he showed a mourning dad desperate for information on his family, you could feel your heart break with him. Naomi Watts, of course, was phenomenal. Just an all around remarkable film, and one that really showcased some of Tom’s strong suits. Quite graphic throughout, but if you have the stomach, I highly recommend taking the time to watch young Tom act his heart out in crisis.

Moments (short film, 2013)

mmkay so this is just a short youtube film, but it’s pretty great. It has Tom doing a voiceover with a montage of a boy and girl in a relationship. Heartbreaking, sharply done, and quick, it’s worth the four minutes of your time.

Locke (2013)

This one’s about a dad on a car ride and how his life kind of falls apart over the course of a few phone calls. Though Tom has a very small part in this film (it’s just his voice for like five minutes, max) he does it well. You understand the relationship between he and his father, and he sounds just a like a teenage kid waiting to watch a match on tv would. The whole film isn’t really necessary if you’re just watching for Tom, but it’s actually really remarkable. Would recommend, just be aware this isn’t a “Tom” movie.

How I Live Now (2013)

ALRIGHT, BUCKOS, STRAP IN! I have my fair share of complaints with this movie, but Tom’s character (Isaac) is NOT ONE OF THEM! Basic plot: an edgy™ American girl comes to stay with her cousins in England, and WWIII breaks out and they get separated and she’s trying to find them. It’s enjoyable, Saoirse Ronan does a great job playing her character, and I’m glad I actually watched it.

Spoilers: She falls in love with her eldest cousin, and that’s a main instigator of the plot. GROSS. But it’s her middle cousin, Isaac, that really made this movie tolerable. Tom plays a 14-year-old kid that really just wanted his cousin to enjoy her stay without letting her walk all over him. He and Daisy exchange banter, and he never lets her negativity get to him. For the first half an hour, he spends all his screen time trying to make light of situations and caring for his family. Then, they kill him off after seeing nothing of him for 40+ minutes. NOT. COOL. Daisy tenderly buries his glasses after finding his dead body, but they don’t really mention him again until the little sister is like “lmao where’s isaac???” He deserved far better. I will probably watch this movie again, but it really goes downhill when you take his positivity and warmth from it.

Tweet (short film, 2015)

Another short youtube film. This one stars Tom’s youngest brother, and is very witty and cute. You get about thirty seconds (max) of Tom onscreen, but he actually directed this! V v adorable, I recommend those two minutes of cuteness.

In the Heart of the Sea (2015)

Ahhh, the origination of the iconic Quackson meme. Won’t lie, I was a bit disappointed by this one. The movie is based off a book that is telling the “true story” that inspired Herman Meville to write Moby Dick. Tom plays the young version of the sole survivor of the ship Essex that was attacked by a white wale and marooned for months. A rowdy period piece full of action and high tensions, it’s a good popcorn movie.

Spoilers: The pacing was really weird. They spend the first hour of the movie sailing around on a nice boat, hunting whales, and bullying the new kid (Tom). The captain is jealous of the first mate so he makes dumb choices. Tom’s character (Thomas Nickerson) thinks the first mate is the coolest guy ever. And suddenly!! WHALES. FIRE. TENSIONS. There’s literally like fifteen minutes of whale smashing, half an hour of floating around and starving and cannibalism, and the last fifteen minutes are split between angsty old Nickerson and everyone making it home fine. The idea was interesting, and the cast did wonderfully, it just felt like the production was a bit rushed. Would still recommend!

Captain America: Civil War (2016)

I’m not really gonna review this, we probably have all seen this. I just wanted to put it here so it’s all his films. Tom’s great. The ideal Peter. A quality beeb. I’m so sorry that I said beeb. WOW I LOVE THIS SPIDEY!

Edge of Winter (2016)

Okay!! I was really excited to see this one, and it was perfectly mediocre. A quick summary: Bradley (Tom) and his little brother are left with their dad for a week or whatever. Their dad finds out that their new step-dad is planning on moving the family and freaks out. Horror movie cliches ensue. An interesting concept with a pretty decent cast, but lacking in certain areas. A mellow horror, much more of a thriller.

Spoilers: Tbh Luc and Richard felt a bit flung in, and there was a lot of unrealistic things. Like... Brad drives a car for like a mile one time and then at the end he’s fine driving miles and miles to get away. Also what happened to their dad?? It’s never discussed at the end. And ik this is about Tom (don’t get me wrong, he was great) but can we discuss the little brother??? Honestly the two brothers pretty much carried the film and they did amazingly! If it had the proper score, I feel it would have boosted the film’s quality tenfold. Altogether, an enjoyable movie to watch when you want something freaky, but not too bad.

The Lost City of Z (2016)

Quite possibly my least favorite movie on this list, but that might just be me. Percy Fawcett is an explorer that becomes obsessed with his search for the lost city he calls “z” in the amazon forest. Despite ridicule from his superiors, he dedicates his life to it. His family feels he has abandoned them, but still support him. It’s literally 2 hours and 20 minutes of this dude looking for native inhabitants of “amazonia.” There are long, sophisticated scenes of dialogue. This is a movie you need to pay close attention to in order to capture completely.

Spoilers: It’s probably bc I was watching the movie for Tom, but I was disappointed. We get maybe 20 minutes of Tom, the majority of that just squeezed into the end. Tom’s character development felt rushed and flimsy. Robert Pattinson’s character was great, and honestly, why did we not get more development from him??? It was a lot of dialogue with not a lot of movement. Probably like a 5 or 6 out of 10. Just a bit of a mess.. The best part was probably what an early feminist his wife was.

Pilgrimage (2017)

okay so this movie isn’t technically out yet but it’s online illegally (ssssh.....) and I really wanted to see it. I was prepared to dislike it bc people kept talking about how dark it was, but it was actually very enjoyable. Definitely gory and v intense, but all the same, a good story. Possibly the best showcase of Tom’s talent yet (other than hoco obs). Be warned: it can be very hard to watch at times, but stays true to its story.

Spoilers: ok so tbh sometimes it felt like the movie couldn’t decide who it wanted its main character to be. We see Mr. French Richard Armitage Princey a lot, and the herbalist, and the French Priest dude, and definitely a lot of The Novice (Tom), but it wasn’t until the end when it becomes clear that we were watching through the eyes of the Novice. Where Edge of Winter’s big climax failed to feel high-stakes when it was, Pilgrimage does the opposite. During the final scene, I went “oh, yeah, this is the climax!” and it felt v high stakes. Definitely dark and gory and intense, but an intriguing and fascinating film to watch if you have the time.

Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

Wowowowow i love tom and he’s so good and i can’t wait to see more spidey YEET!!!

thank you for reading, let me know if this helped, and i will probably continue to add to this as more of his movies come out :)))
