Sony is erasing digital libraries that were supposed to be accessible “forever”

Casualties afoot as Sony merges Funimation with 2021-acquired Crunchyroll.

reminder that digital libraries aren’t owned, also why pirating digital content is a necessity

Michael Sheen Massive Praise Post

I don’t think I have ever actually expressed how much I do appreciate this guy so now it’s high time to do so!

We all agree that Sheen was great as Aziraphale, but it’s still mainly David Tennant to have his own fanvids with Crowley alone and not Michael (nearly no Aziraphale alone fanvids there!). Much as I love their characters as a couple, I’d love to have some sort of POV of each of them as well, but all I have is a lot of Crowley (at least when it comes to fanvids).

Is Aziraphale less interesting because he’s an angel? Well, I think fanbase generally prefers Crowley. Like, we love both, they’re inseparable and there’s usually loads of both of them as one, but if you have to choose just one… Well, I think, it’d be Crowley, not Aziraphale to be chosen by most of fans. Aziraphale is not the dramatic good demon. He’s a bastard who thinks he knows best what’s Right and what’s Wrong or rather he pretends to know. Such a hypocrite! Sure, he’s changing slowly, his certainty is really just a fasade, he’s good at heart and so on, but Crowley is the one we would agree with and sympathize with in the first place. Most of us, at least.

Considering it all, Michael Sheen deserves even more credit for his portrayal of Aziraphale because he managed to make this character as interesting, as lovable as Crowley in fandom’s eyes. I think Aziraphale as a role is way harder to portray than Crowley. And he succeed anyway! It’s pretty obvious here, on Tumblr that Sheen as Aziraphale stole fanbase’s heart. My thoughts are based solely on observation of Good Omens fans here. Of course, you can disagree. I may be wrong. Only idiots think they’re totally right. ;)

I’m so happy to see that on Tumblr Michael Sheen is appreciated properly by the fanbase of GO, but anywhere else, I guess, it's  DT mainly. Don’t get me wrong, I love DT, he’s my favourite actor, actually, but it’s just so sad that Michael Sheen, fantastic, outstanding actor, the one who’s so great when it comes to interacting with fans, so supportive of fan activities and stuff, has no great fanbase on his own. Like popculture, various, huge fanbase, focused on him only, not just on this one single role in Good Omens.

I blame it on the fact that Michael was not  in many popculture, high quality productions and there’s a lot of him being just supporting character, not the main one. DT has Doctor Who, Jessica Jones, Good Omens, Broadchurch… Michael Sheen, on the other hand, has… Twilight. I don’t wish to insult Twilight fans, but still we do need more of Michael Sheen in things like Good Omens. Otherwise, no huge, proper Michael Sheen popculture fanbase can be formed.

I myself saw him in so many productions and just didn’t remember him in any of them. But then Good Omens was announced and I started doing some research on him and I found out I knew him already! I just… didn’t remember him! Mostly because those productions he was in were not my jam or he was just supporting character in them. It’s a real shame!

But it could be so much better, even without new, main roles in things similar to, let’s say, Doctor Who.

I mean, for example, we have Bright Young Things. Great idea to make a movie, great cast, mostly, but result’s a bit dull. How much better that movie could be if Miles (Michael Sheen) was its main character! With that queer, dramatic, camp acting I love so much? The movie could be awesome! Not to say… GAY RIGHTS! It’d be fantastic production, a bit absurd, a bit sad about queer people in 20s with queer main character struggling with his identity!

Same goes to Passengers. Just a normal movie, nothing special (it is so for me, you can disagree), but imagine the very same movie from the perspective of Arthur (Michael Sheen), an android, who observes the couple, learns watching them. If we could also have some witty narration to it (much like God in Good Omens) it’d be great, wouldn’t it? Instead of that boring couple on a spaceship plot, we could have android observing the human couple, changing thanks to them, while having all sorts of identity issues. 

But we don’t have it, unfortunately.

My point in this chaotic praise post is that Michael Sheen is intriguing actor and he needs more recognition. And that’s my point!

Oh, but what do I love about his acting so much? His acting style is so very emotional, a bit dramatic, camp even (I do love camp aesthetics, by the way), queer-like. He has very expressive eyes and elegant smiles, those tiny twitches and graceful or, on the contrary, nervous gestures. It all makes you think, while watching him, that there’s some buzzing energy inside him, some constantly changing flow of thoughts and emotions. He reflects them so well, even those slight shifts, shadows of thoughts on his features. You can actually read the character he’s portraying without him even speaking. All it takes to understand the character here is just watching his body language! Oh, and his voice! Such a nice voice to hear; soothing, low, but not too low and I love his ability to make it slightly higher than it is or lower and a little bit harsh. His manner of speaking is also pretty elegant, clear and easy to understand for me as a non-native speaker. It probably means that his way of spelling words is super correct or something.

He’s certainly too good to be supporting character or acting in low quality stuff. There’s not enough of him being the main character and in good stuff.

Yes, that’s my point! :)
