Nicholas Galitzine is really out here collecting sad little queer boys in his filmography isn’t he?

Seeing Purple Hearts in Netflix, and I'm so happy about it. First, cause my girl Sofia had come so far since the Disney days and is building her career so well. Being main female lead, producer and singer/songwriter all in one film show that she's really talented and I hope she goes even further. 💜
Secondly, cause is giving Nicholas Galitzine more visibility and he deserves it. I've been a big fan of him since The Craft Legacy (not a great film, but it had a great cast); and I was so happy when he got casted as HRH Henry in the upcoming RW&RB movie. This Purple Hearts movie is showing people what I always knew, he is talented enough to be a perfect Henry.

I don't really do individual fic recs but this one's really fun and I wanna put it out there a bit
It's an unconventional crossover ship between Marco and Timmy (the craft legacy) which isn't a pair I thought I would be into but truth be told it's a really fun read!
Also mpreg's involved by the way

This (The Craft Legacy) was on tonight.
It's a decent mindless popcorn movie, but every time I watch it I'm struck with the urge to write a better The Craft 2 (or maybe The Craft 3).
I wanna give Nancy (and Sarah) a healing and redemption arc, and I need to bring in a new generation. Maybe move everyone to the east coast?

putting a love spell on someone is crazy because.. they don’t even like you. you made them like you and they’re basically just pretending to like you.. like. how could you live like that lol (the tags explain this)

I'm watching the craft: legacy and I think it's much more watchable than its reputation. it's messy as hell, and I am not convinced teenagers speak like this at all, but I think it's got some interesting bones. it's main problems I think are the pacing and lack of purpose for most of the characters -- the more interesting stuff doesn't really begin until around the one hour mark, when there's not much movie left, and it sort of races towards the finish line from that point, rather than letting things build slowly
it's especially the three other witches that suffer from this, they're simply not particularly well drawn. that being said the idea that these four girls reach into this boy (an awful person, definitely) and completely fuck with his brain in order to make him "better" is very interesting, although those consequences aren't really dealt with, because he's murdered, kind of letting them off the hook
there are all these interesting little ideas floating about that unfortunately get lost in the more simplistic evil david duchovny plot (which, to be clear, totally fair to have evil david duchovny who hates women plot also)
I have now seen a few modern takes on different kinds of horror and soft!horror and I wonder if the wall that keeps getting banged against is the fear of having main characters be "problematic." the idea that we're trying to create a different kind of world, centering narratives that have queer intersectional ethos, and so we can't let the characters be messy, or else that underlying messaging might get lost/people might judge
this to say, that especially in horror, people need to let their inner freak out more. not police what's "morally good" behaviour. not let limitations be dictated by narratives that have demonised marginalised bodies in the past. idk, just write a short with some mass-murdering witches to get it out of your system and see how you feel after that, maybe you'd like more murderous witches
also, spoiler I guess for the final scene which doesn't have any bearing really on the main plot + mild discussion of SA
but perhaps my bias around nancy downs... there is something incredibly bleak about her specifically having a kid that she's forced to give up under very unclear circumstances. if it were sarah (robin tunney) I'd have maybe read some of that differently, but I cannot not read this as somehow related to sexual assault or at least highly dubious consent, because nancy ends the original craft institutionalised and we see her here... still institutionalised. there is a line that suggests that in between that she's been released and came to lily's adopted mother for help (which is also... skirted over....) but nancy's relationship with men isn't canonically great for her, so to see her here... many questions....
I think maybe also because I read nancy as a lesbian, so it's all very mixed up in personal feelings about the character, but of course none of that is explored because it's the last scene sooo
I think a sequel might actually do this a lot of good, because it sets up way more than it explores, but I don't think it will due to ahem... very bad ratings

There is a trend now in some movies, specially movies whose target is mainly teenagers, to have "good family dynamics" that are actually terrible dynamics. I've seen it in a couple of movies already but it pisses me off. In particular, I'm thinking of the new version of The Craft and Doctor Sleep, and I'm mentally comparing them to The Goonies or the last one of Ghostbusters.
Usually it's a family where everyone gets along. Maybe the daughter has some power that her family doesn't know about or doesn't approve of but they never fight (it's not about the power itself even though the power drives the plot). They get along great, the mother looks young, happy and relaxed, the daughter is calm, reasonable and very emotionally stable even though she is a teenager. The father may be absent or, if he is there, it's symbolic.
This looks superficially great. Coincidentally, these movies are also too beautiful, clean and organised. But a family with a teenager that gets along has fights and problems. A family with a teenager where they don't understand or fully accept the teenager's power is only good in front of an audience, as long as we all look normal.
Teenagers are an emotional mess. They have hormones playing around, new situations, new independence, new problems. Even a good natured kid will get irrationably angry at some point.
But also, good natured mothers are tired and busy. And good mothers do not go to their teenage kid for emotional support in a moment of doubt or stress. A good family dynamic is a kid who's worried about something and finds support in their parents. These movies always have at least a scene where the mother confides in the extremely stable kid as if it was proof that they get along great.
What you have in real life when that happens is a child who will grow up with emotional problems because they're taking too much responsibility for their age, because the adult in their life is unreliable.
I understand that, for plot reasons, you cannot portray a complicated and nuanced family relationship, but if they have time to show the mother asking for help to their child, they should have time to actually show the child asking for help to the mother. They also have time to show a fight or disagreement in the family.
Yes, I get that if you want movies for teenagers, you have to give teenagers something to project to. It is a trope that they overcome obstacles for that very reason, same as it is a trope that adults are unreliable and you have to figure out shit on your own (which leads to adventures). But even in those narrations, there is a trustworthy adult that gives a hand or, at least, listens. They exist as a contrast with the bad parents, the aggressive teachers and the bullies. The message being you're not alone and there is always someone you can count on.
Now, if you are going to make a family the trustworthy adult, why aren't you showing the kid trusting their parents with their secret power? Why do their parents get superficially along with the kid, confiding in them but not accepting whatever the kid is saying? Why are they helped by an external figure or why do they figure shit on their own?
Because the family is not as happy and easy going as it looked like on the surface. Because the kid is actually suffering and screaming inside. But the movie is not about that, it's about something fantastic and supernatural and whatever bigger event is happening is more important that the fact that the kid actually alone and lonely. And if you don't look too deep, it's a just a movie, it's entertaining and fun, the family gets along and discrepancies are quickly brushed off.

don't get me wrong, I love The Craft Legacy. I think it has good representation and I love the connection between the girls for this movie.
HOWEVER, I hate hate HATE the ending fight scene. the guy who plays the stepdad is so fucking boring to watch. he had absolutely no emotion, like he was reading from a script and that was it. the CGI spells looked bad, and it just didn't feel completed.
how is it that a 90's movie looks better for a fight scene than a movie made in 2020 with way more access to CGI.
