THE FORESHADOWING!!!
Pierre Curie died young, she outlived him by several decades.
My heart š
Christopher and Grace did end up collaborating like the Curies and revolutionizing communication for shadowhunters
Annika
BTW, I am looking at your suggestions for Henriās sisterās name. After deadline (Friday), Iām going to look at all your ideas, maybe pick a few personal faves, and then we could vote or something. Okay. back to work!
Maybe they really just went with the whole Easter vibe??
everyone hold my hand. NEOW. if bobby was actually dead why would be via man made rat disease. why would they not just let it leak, but post a fake script making light of the whole situation. why is oliver making light of bobby dying in his comments. why is tim saying āno bobbyās dead frā in his liar who lies voice. why is peter on set for 8x17. why would they kill him in a seemingly random episode instead of the end of the season. why was angela saying she doesnāt see an end of 911 where bobby and athena arenāt together. and also. this would just be shockingly bleak for the nobody dies show. if heās dead fr iāll eat my words but i swear i think bobby is literally fine.
The fact that "Lucie" was the first thing Jesse said when he came back to life šššš
Also, was anyone else suprised that he woke up and after seven years of death instantly was strong enough to lift and carry Lucie? Maybe it's an indicator of how much power Lucie used on him. Which, in turn, would explain her fainting (and could assure us that she's quite alright and just needs rest to fill up her energy levels again)
what's so great about the mummy 1999?
are you ready for this?Ā
it is the most wonderfully made, historically inaccurate, giddily fun, perfectly paced, goofy horror movie romance novel bullshit bonanza that has ever blessed the silver screen.
i mean it is just so beautifully full of every genre without being overwhelming.weāve got: comedy, action, suspense, horror, romance, adventure, ancient aesthetics, and itās a period piece. all perfectly balanced and blended into one movie.
and the characters are so LIT
we got our main babe,Ā evelynĀ āmotherfuckingāĀ carnahan, a super-klutz librarian, total history nerd, and certified badass/damsel in distress. she raises the dead on accident, because she cannot resist books, and has the guts to put that motherfucker back where he came from and literally saves the world.evieās greatest hits:Ā
āwhat is a place like me, doing in a girl like this?!ā
*after totally destroying the library*Ā āiāve just made a bit of a mess in the library.ā
āno harm ever came from reading a book.ā
evelyn:Ā *upon opening the tomb* āiāve dreamt about this since i was a little girl.ārick: āyou dream about dead guys?ā
āoops.ā
then weāve got rick ābrendan fraserā oāconnell, your not-so-typical battle hardened gun slinger with a heart of gold. he seems filthy, rude, and a complete scoundrel at first, but then he turns into a literal puppy, with massive heart eyes, that worships the ground evie walks on.rickās greatest hits:
*screams at mummy*
*screams at sand*
*screams at things that are illogical to scream at*
*screams*
next is our Comedic Relief Characterā¢,Ā jonathan carnahan, who also rises above his trope. heās there for the laugh sure, but is never useless. he actively helps to move the plot along and isnāt justĀ there. he also is the farthest thing from brainless and annoying.jonathanās greatest hits:
evelyn: āhave you no respect for the dead?ājonathan: āof course i do, but sometimes iād rather like to join them.ā same.
oh and that time he was likeĀ āIMHOTEPā and saved his own ass like that was so smooth, yāall know what iām talking about right??
then there is ardeth BAE. he is the audience rolling his eyes because *sighs* white people. heās tired of these motherfucking mummies in this motherfucking desert. literally prettier than everyone.(he has a much bigger role in the mummy returns, but is still so fab here)
and of course THE MUMMY. imhotep. actual emo. literally carved some poetry into the back of his sarcophagus when he was buried alive with flesh eating bugs, because he is that Extraā¢. just wants to bring his girlfriend back to life so he can make out with her without it being treason.Ā
and all the side characters are also gr8.
now i wanna take a moment to talk about the romance. because it is so BEAUTIFUL. like usually in action movies itās macho man undermines girl and they bone. not here. no time for that shit.Ā
rick and evie have such a great relationship based on mutual respect and affection. they both cater to each otherās strengths and cover each otherās weaknesses. they are the literally definition of:Ā āthose two. in a fight, theyāre lethal. around each other, they meltā
what else, i could literally talk about this movie all day.
the special effects have held up pretty well.the music score is GORGEOUS.the costumes are amazing.the makeup, especially for anck su namun, OH WOW.the george of the jungle era brendan fraser sign me the fuck up.rachel weisz.
so many good things.
itās just great.
#i secretly rate every action movie from 0 to the mummy
itās a beautiful mess of a movie that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and transcends time and posterity as the alpha mummy movie, and to those who disagree i beseech you:
Yessss MY NAME IN A BOOKš±š±ššš I'M SO GONNA LOVE HERššš
Here are the responses I got for the name of Henriās little sister! So all of the submissions are at the very top, and I made a word cloud. The bigger names are the ones that was submitted the most times. If the choice was made solely on how many people wanted it, then Annika Jaakoppi would win :)
P.S. I now understand why @partylikeawordstar was overwhelmed.Ā
Blood loss? No I know exactly where it is
presented without comment
anyone please ask your crush out like this
Do you think CC will rewrite the CP2 epilogue after TLH finishes given that some things after Chog already don't match up? Like Barbara being present
She might change some things for when they order a new reprint. Different editions already have different people appearing in the epilogue. My best friendās version doesnāt have Lucie in it but mine does, for example...
A dozen different fandoms, but my biggest is TSC
