#i really really dont like being filmed

[angelboybreakdowns]

nothing worse than repeatedly, clearly telling your family how much something hurts you. bringing up every time they do it how uncomfortable this makes you and what an important boundary it is to you. and yet they still keep doing it and treating it like some funny little joke.

#i know this shouldnt be a big deal. #but my mom and sister constantly take videos pictures etc of me #i really really dont like being filmed #i explain to them every time they do it (probably about twice a day on average) how upset it makes me #especially because its usually things like filming me dancing or taking pictures of me sitting weirdly #so they can send them to their friends #and mock me #(not conjecture or paranoia they literally tell me thats what they do with them) #and. its such a small thing #and it really shouldnt be this big a deal #i know that #but on the other hand #if its so unimportant #why is it so hard for them to not do it? #why dont they just stop #there is literally no way they dont know how much it hurts me #that they take situations in which im happy and comfortable and make them something to be self conscious or embarrassed about #i tell them.every time. i have explained to them so many times how hurtful it is. #so the only possibility at this point is that they are deliberately hurting me just be a they think its funny #my happiness my comfort my ability to unmask partly in my own home all matter less than a cheap laugh #tags are a personal vent but main post ok to rb

doing wayyy too much for it to be unrequited

#like what the fuck was the cabin scene. what the shit was that. #why would they film every scene they have together so beautifully. whats going on. #surely the editors were like ‘hey mattross… this shot of will and mike looks uh… really queer’ #surely SOMEONE realised they were filming a gay romcom at some point? #like if they’re not meant to be in love w each other then i will question everything about their film choices. #like this is not how u do an unrequited romance. at least one that u dont want the audience to root for. #like even if this ends up being painfully unrequited i will rest easy knowing they share the prettiest scenes together #sorry for going insane over byler cinematography on a random wednesday afternoon #mine

ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE

(2023) Dir. Shawn Levy

#i dont think theres much of fandom for this book/show this is gonna get like 9 notes #as always these look fine on my computer and horrific on my phone so thats super fun #my gifs #all the light we cannot see #shawn levy #louis hofmann #aria mia loberti #tvedit #usergreta #dailyflicks #filmedit #atlwcs #really wish they didnt cut frederick #also its weird that this was all in english #i was expecting a mix of german and french and english but theres like no other languages just accents thats pretty stupid #also this is just the film bitch in me but when he exploded the door and she was deaf for a couple seconds and you didnt hear anything they #really should have also completely unfocused the shot too to replicate her being blind AND deaf in that moment #the fact that they only deafened the audio for the audience kinda makes you forget that shes blind they just focused on the deaf part #and blindness isnt just darkness she can probably see some light (npi) so just a really blurry shot with no audio wouldve been great #thats the only like film specific thing i wish they did tho #i really love the shot werner on the ground and in bed #i also dont hate that they made em kiss... #even tho when i read this in high school i was the only one in my socratic seminar who was glad they didnt lmao #its not like reylo like it works #ok im done #OH AND IM GLAD WERNER DIDNT DIE THAT WAS VERY NICE OF THEM

It is kinda funny seeing people talk about Seungmin lately because he definitely has gotten more bold and confident for sure. He's also just getting opportunities to be perceived as an individual on his own as well for the first time in a while but it's still jarring to see people be like Aw he was always such a quiet goodie two shoes little nerd and it's like...... he was the one to leave and seek out his own vocal coach and blatantly talk about it, which of course lead to I.N and Lee Know also doing the same, he was the one to go on bubble and tell off sasaengs who used to camp outside their old dorm for invading members privacy but also because it effected other residents and staff at the complex, something that i'm certain upper management wouldnt have been happy about, and he wasn't curt or nice about it either. like he's never actually been a wallflower, he's always had a pretty strong backbone and seems to stick to his principals, its not really new.

#even silly shit like bringing up drinking even tho staff has clearly told him not too #like yeah its silly but its still sticking to his guns of being like we arent actually children anymore thanks #the food thing too like in an old 2 kids room he said something about not being able to eat on his bday bc they were filming so evidently #there was a moment in time when he caved to the shitty diet obsession kpop had but ever since hes never really said anything like it again #instead hes telling everyone to eat well and reminding people to have dinner or lunch every other day #even the comment about growing his hair out but then being like lol the stylist probably wont like me saying that or whatever #and like the yeah im going to the gym but im not lifting. dont expect me to bulk up. im doing it for stamina<< that made me cackle #bc i did see people on twt being like but what if seungmin got buff tho omg hed be so hot 🥺 Well him bein buff isnt what this is about #so he went and made sure people were realistic. not everyone needs to be noticeably cut yk #idk maybe bc i watched most all the skz content all the way through #and now i go back and gif stuff i notice patterns more easily than if youve been here for longer and havent watched older stuff #for a while- maybe? idk its just funny but i also see takes a lot and have to stop myself from going No <3 #anyway this is my obligatory insane ksm tangent of the week. see you in 5 minutes. #🐶

this is how it feels to chew 5 gum being a barnaby/howdy enjoyer. im Unwell

#im just staring at a wall rotating them in my brain. constantly. no coherent thoughts theyre just There #its like... hate to Expose myself but yk that one supernatural episode #that was filmed like a mockumentary by the Ghost Hunter Guys. yk the episode with the 'gay love saves the day' quote #yeah yk the scene where the guys are screaming trying to escape cas but everywhere they turn / each door they open Cas Is There #that is also what it feels like being a laughingstock enthusiast #im trying to escape it. i cant. theyre Everywhere. #i go to sleep thinking about them. i wake up and theyre one of my first thoughts #ITS TOO MUCH! theyre too good.... #if youre reading this and youre like 'theyre cute but i dont really ship them' #Its Already Too Late. #cause thats how i felt. i thought they were gonna be a silly nonserious concept in the back of my mind #a crackship yk #look at me now... #laughingstock #i thought franklydear was gonna be The Welcome Home Pairing for me #i love them so so so much theyre everything but laughingstock is More. Somehow. #then again! we'll see what new characters and dynamics arise in the future! things may change! #but for now... mentol ellness over the dog and the caterpillar #that sounds like a childrens book lmfao

reminder that if you're not watching Crayon Shin-chan then you are living a hollow and empty life. this is not edited. this ripped straight from the movie (Movie 8: Jungle That Invites the Storm, highly recommend for fellow Masaaki Yuasa lovers)

if you need further convincing: these monkeys run an animation sweatshop

#i've made this disclaimer on another post but will again since i've seen a lot more of the movies now #the movies are VERY good and very enjoyable but unfortunately the first handful are bogged down by transphobic/homophobic/okama stereotypes #they kind of vary in their severity. Movie 5 i think is the biggest catalyst because it features the stereotyped characters the most #prominently. Movie 3 doesnt really have caricatures per se but saves a very backhanded reveal for the end #Movies 1 and 4 are a bit more tolerable if my memory is correct. Movie 2 i think is kind of comparable to Movie 5 with its caricatures #in that the characters have similar roles in both movies #i admittedly can't remember what caricatures there were in Movie 6 or 7. 7 i think barely had anything #RAMBLE RAMBLE BASICALLY: these jokes are within the first 7 movies or so 5 being the zenith then reducing down and down. by movie 8 it's sa #e #i give these disclaimers because these movies are all very enjoyable and i would not recommend them if i didnt think there wasnt any merit #o them. they are all very much worth watching. Movie 5 still has a lot of very enjoyable stuff in it (there's a showdown in a supermarket!! #but i just want to make sure that is clear and established since transparency is good to have and i dont want anyone's viewing experience t #be ruined because they weren't given the proper warning #if it's any consolation it's my understanding that even the directors hated doing the jokes #iirc Keiichi Hara really didn't like doing the jokes and i think had a talk with the mangaka Yoshito Usui and was like 'uh dude this is #gonna age horribly can we maybe not' #ironically Hara's first film is Movie 5. which is again the biggest offender #BUT! that is my spiel. my understanding is that it's contained to those 6 or 7 first movies and i think is strictly just a movie thing #so please do give these films a watch but just be mindful at the same time #if anyone needs recommendations my favorites have been movies 4 and 9 but i genuinely really enjoyed every one that i have seen #i've seen the first 11 and a half movies (need to finish 12) and movie 22. the worst i've felt about one is 'oh that was pretty good!' #each film has its own merit and is very very very much worth watching #22 was the first Shin-chan anything i watched and all my Shin-chan expert friends say 4 is a good introductory piece #in case that influences anything/makes it easier to break in #so. thus concludes my spiel #csc #vid

no man but if byler isnt endgame its just gonna be so disappointing especially if mileven stays the main couple. like okay guess mike was genuinely just an asshole. guess he barely had an arc. guess el never truly developed and just regressed instead. guess another gay character gets an unhappy ending. fucking hell

#itll change my perspective on the whole show and the duffers ability to write relationships #like it wont ruin everything about it for me but its gonna be hard to recover from #especially mike so much doesnt work with him if byler isnt endgame #hes just genuinely kind of a dick #and not to mention just how much shit would not make any sense at all #theres some shit thats really hard to deny or write off as not being byler proof #i just hope they go through with this man #byler #anti mileven #its so important that they do something like this for so many reasons #to preserve the writing and to show people that hey gay people can like. be a major thing in franchises not actively targetted at them #not everything that includes a major gay couple or queer people in general has to be something thats dedicated solely to queerness #we can exist in sci fi shows and have major roles #we can exist in dramas and have major roles #we can exist in any franchise with major roles #we dont have to be exclusive to things designed solely for us #and we can be characters without our queerness being the only aspect of our character #we really need to take that step and one of the most popular shows in the world doing that would literally change the course of film histor #please duffers dont fuck this up

idk how to feel about the atla live action show but I just saw that the guy who’s playing zuko mentioned zukka in an interview and I’m kinda foaming at the mouth, going feral at the moment

ENOUGHHHH. T-MINUS ONE DAY

#NOT MY ZUKKA ❌ #can you believe i was one of the naive optimists being like 'maybe this live action will be good' #and then they started making announcements.... #i have ZERO hope for it anonstie. i dont want them to even touch zukka #not that im delusional enough to think they will but even this kind of shit of saying it in interviews like. i just feel #like they're fucking w us. like that's the issue w these big corporate shows made only for extra profit and not for love of the source #is that they treat the audience like something to be mocked. like we're all part of one big moneymaking trick #and if we fall for it by getting excited about certain things ('the actors JOKINGLY mentioned my fav ship!') then we're stupid #and i just really hate that. i need to get into more freak shit made by some students and a dodgy camera #bc the corporations have truly taken all love from film-making and the concept of a producer-consumer relationship is lost #OR SOMETHING. ANYWAY. WHAT WAS THAT #ask #atla

[doctorwhoisadhd]

i still cant believe no one else in my family liked everything everywhere all at once all that much. like they all thought it was good but like. i was sitting there feeling like my ribs had been peeled open to expose every soft vulnerable organ in my body

#would it shock you if i said im the only one out of the four of us who has severe ADHD. or even a diagnosis really #ari opinion hour #my mom (least ADHD woman on the planet) thought it was just okay and i dont understand that for a second #like hi its me your child. i have been sitting there next to you for this entire film and the state it has left me in is comparable to #being pinned to a corkboard like an insect and disemboweled of all of my psychological issues #all my organs have been pulled out of my abdomen and strung up around me like red string connecting every single thing thats wrong with me #even my dad didnt like. Get It the way i did and he probs has ADHD. like dude where have you been your whole life?? #because i dont think it's where ive been

Emma's Oscar is looking more and more locked in, which is good because she was outstanding in her movie, but sad because Lily was outstanding in her movie. And somehow at the end of all this, I'm afraid I must tell you all I have found myself officially rooting for Sandra, who was (get this) outstanding in her movie 😩

#it's really just an insanely stacked year #which we should honestly all be happy about!!!! but its inevitably gonna mean injustice for many deserving entries #it could wind up being any three of them and I'd be like “yup that makes perfect sense” #carey was also good but maestro was a deeply unserious movie so i dont think shes a real contender here #and no shade to madam annette but i have not seen nyad and have no urgent plans to change that lol #anyways i still still STILL think lily could be a dark horse surprise but emma has been freaking sweeping #but yeah for me personally? sandra's was MY performance of the year #oscars #emma stone #lily gladstone #sandra hüller #films #poor things #killers of the flower moon #anatomy of a fall

i know people have talked to death about it but i cannot get over the soundtrack for wish (2023). your 100 year animation dynasty was carried by musical theater writers and this is how you repay them? by hiring the songwriter for fifth harmony??? 💀

#literally so baffling like no shade to julia michaels im sure shes lovely #but this is your centennial feature film girl wtf are you doing #if they were so desperate to get a pop artist to do the score why wouldnt they #i dont know #hire a pop artist who has written for musical theater before??? #what im saying is they should have hired sara bareilles #or elton john! literally did the soundtrack for lion king! #like i dont really care i think the soundtrack is hilarious and its biggest crime is being cringe #but genuinely i get so baffled and confused the harder i think about this #.mov #.txt #not tagging it because i dont wanna fight with disney adults 💀

every time theres a ruby edit the search is ruby cruz boyfriend. leave her alone!

#oh my god. like real freak behavior. its like an obsession with confirming something to themselves #i think the most shes ever said publicly abt relationships is just that she was going through a breakup filming. #and ppl do this on everything or like Wow too bad she has a bf. what do u know! share w the class. and its always just a pic w some random #guy shes standing next to like these ppl arent even being accurate in their freakery. #get real #like quite frankly i dont care its not my business what shes up to she keeps her shit private for a reason. #but like i dont think we need to obsess over whether shes gay baiting or something. i wouldnt give a single fuck if she was first of all #shed win ally of the year for a million years at my request cause she looks good doing it! #good and dykey. but also be serious #k well im really the normal one here i promise #abby talks

etta’s portrayal in butch cassidy and the sundance kid was great but i do find it really really funny they introduced her by being like ‘shes really really into roleplay sex’ and then they cut to the next scene and it’s like ‘and also polyamory!’

#i love her sm of course but the the first scene with her and sundance… hilarious #like u dont know sundance very well yet but u do know hes a bit of a brute #so you see that and youre like oh god what am i watching is he really gonna… #and its like no she’s just freaky #<- technically u could read that as sundance being freaky but in my heart. he just does whatever etta asks of him. be real u know its true #film #i am a little bit sorry for making u read this post but not sorry enough to draft it instead #because EYE think it’s funny #butch cassidy and the sundance kid

sorry for actually liking the dark themes and unsettling narratives in my favorite medias and not creating this warped perception that is devoid of all the things that actually make up the characters and plot. and if you can't handle even just the discussion of them then why are you into these medias in the first place.

#this is about so many things but. yknow. #every space ever is like this but it really gets me when people into HORROR are like this #ill never forget that one person in my server who had a full breakdown over the implication that bo s/nclair rapes his victims #despite there being an entire dedicated scene to that implication. like. i really dont think these people watch the films they claim to lov #its hell to try and find likeminded people nowadays who actually understand the media theyre consuming.

[lacking-hydration]

that postal movie is so inconsistently ok

#i watched the last like. ten minutes of it cos i know most of the boobie is done by then its just like. blood n guns whatever #and like. i almost kinda get the vague impression of what they're trying to satirize #yknow? #and i still think the dude's monologue of just 'CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG' immediately being shot down is. im not gonna sit here and #cal it poignant but i GET it i think its funny and i think maybe you could argue theres something there about how arbitrarily willing human #are to just kill each other instead of trying to work things out #hence the ending #and i think maybe the stuff with the US nuking themselves to clense out the 'terrorists' would work better if they werent already like #literal villians in the film i feel like the satire is lost when you start punching down like that i think the whole point the movie was #'trying to make' about how nine eleven was jsut a tragedy and not some grand justification for our overseas .massacring. doesn't work so #well when you've also got to throw in a bunch of 'terrorists' as your set of bad guys. you know? #also i dont care chris coppola is really entertaining as richie i HATE THAT GUY #also i lost my mind when the IRS actually called him 'david clark' i was like OH SO THAT IS HIS ACTUAL NAME GET UP #postal dude and faith could have been fun if faith had been in the movie for more than two fucking scenes before. but WHATEVER #WE DONT HAVE TIME TO DEVELOP OUR CHARACTERS RELATIONSHIP WE NEED TO HAVE CUTAWAY VIOLENCE/BIGOTRY JOKE NUMBER 334835345 #consider the following

yeah no okay sorry i have just remembered the stupid fucking justin kurzel movie about the famous nation-changing mass shooting in my state and its the kind of thing where i literally do kind of think it shouldnt have been made and feel incredibly uncomfortable even bringing it up but it just makes me feel so weird im just Compelled to talk about it sometimes.

i've said all this shit probably better in my letterboxd review but the absolute lacuna of this event is really quite interesting to me(except where it’s not a lacuna, because it also frequently isn’t, like when it's brought up like ammo against americans). we watched the kurzel macbeth in a shakespeare unit last year and there was a really awkward pause where the prof was like he’s the one who made the movie about the-- port arthur massacre. horrendous pause. silent acknowledgement. move back to macbeth. like there’s the title of the movie, which is the shooter’s name backwards, and there’s the fact that his real name is never said in the movie. and there’s the fact that i don’t want to name shit here. i really really don’t. i’m trying my best to talk around it.

i don’t know, aside from that there’s the fact that literally everyone here has some connection to the shooting, whether to the victims or the shooter. i know mine rote – a high school english teacher of mine also taught the shooter, back in the ‘80s.

the movie makes me think about true stories, and true crime, and proximity to them. i thought justin kurzel’s snowtown was so good, i really thought it had something to say and i thought it was a good piece of art. maybe someone from south australia would have the same thought about nitram, but maybe they know someone who’s girlfriend’s cousin was killed by john justin bunting and they think snowtown never should have been made. i don’t know what nitram was trying to say. it sure got essie davis some fucking gifsets made of her on tumblr.

i still feel weird about them having an american play the perpetrator, but it’s similar, i think, to how the movie was filmed mostly on the mainland. proximity freezes, if you're close to something terrible.

#i spent the whole movie either staring sickly and enthralled at the screen or scrolling distractedly through the relevant wikipedia pages #“Reception / Reception in Tasmania” yeah well. they really couldnt have done principal filming here #when the movie about the famous nation-changing mass shooting that happened in your state shares a name with a homestuck character #and yet i feel i cant entirely condemn the movie? i dont feel like definitevely saying 'it should never have been made' although i do mostl #agree with that. fuck the kurzel brothers for being good filmmakers #bro what thehell do i tag this with #mass shooting tw #shut up ulrike #nitram 2021
