The Pinnacle Of Gender Envy For Me Is Specifically Gl!Charlie Slime Demon. Like I Want To Be A Grubby

I will forever be sad that Durge can’t bring Orin to camp with them and have her join as they both work to redeem themselves.

Malleus: "Why do you stand against me? I am bestowing my [blessing]... If only you would succumb to a never-waking slumber..."

"THEN ALL OF YOU, AND I AS WELL, WILL NEVER. LOSE ANYTHING. NO LONGER SHALL THERE BE ANY SADNESS!"

Idia: "WHY? U srs? You're a Night Raven student too, and u don't get it?"

"Those goody two-shoes who do favors nobody asked for and force their kindness on others..."

"ARE WHO WE REALLY REALLY REALLY HATE THE MOST!!!"

everyone but miles knew about the nature of the facility: don’t interfere with canon events, don’t mess with the timeline, contain anomalies. gwen and peter b convinced miguel to give miles a chance to come around before containing (and probably killing) him like he clearly wanted to, but bc of hobie’s history with authority and his current feelings on miguel, he knew it wouldn’t work. so, he tried to convince miles to back out, to run away, to not interact with him. bc there’s NO way hobie heard of a spider-man who’s breaking the universe and wasn’t going to meet him somehow.

hobie saw this boy and immediately went “oh fuck i gotta get him out of here” but every attempt was thwarted by miles’ eagerness to be a part of something

miles decided to pursue science instead of art for the sole purpose of getting back to his friends, his loved ones, the only people he could be himself with. he was willing to sacrifice his future just to see them again. and then he finds out peter b and gwen, two of the people he fought life and death with, could have seen him any time and just didn’t.

and then there’s hobie. hobie meets him once, probably hearing a lot about him from gwen but still only once, for less than a day. and instantly, he’s doing more for miles than peter or gwen were even thinking of doing. hobie is making him a backup plan, teaching him to be stronger, slowly implanting doubt and ideas, calling gwen out on her lies without being direct because he knows miles would never believe him if he said it. he’s working in the open shadows to help miles before they’re even really friends

when everything goes to shit, hobie gives gwen a second chance. he only made one extra watch, after all, as far as we know. he lets gwen choose to rebel, just like he didn’t force miles but encouraged him, and he joins the fight to help get miles to safety.

hobie is the best fucking character in this movie don’t chat to me

He’s just an angel I know. (aziraphale's version || insp.)

I love Gale, he’s great.

So I was watching some videos of Gale’s epilogue discussions with a friendship/non-romanced Tav, and…oh my god, Gale…

[Sorcerer] You confine yourself to the School of Illusion? I’d have thought you could teach the entire curriculum…

Gale: I did offer, as a matter of fact.

Gale: However, the Blackstaff insisted I couldn’t teach every subject, nor could the simulacra of myself I offered to create for that purpose.

————————

Blackstaff: Well Gale, we’d be honored to take you on as a professor. What subject would you like to teach?

Gale:

ALL OF THEM

Interesting how everyone talks about how the Rise crew intended to make Leo grow into the leadership role but nobody mentions how Raph as the leader grew on them and they genuinely wanted to keep it that way but Nick forced them to make Leo the leader anyways 🤔

Here’s the comment, the blogger wishes to remain anonymous due to prior harassment:

Like, the fact that they liked Raph being in charge this much speaks volumes about how they truly thought he was a good leader - like, why would they want to keep him as leader unless he was actually good at it, which he was? And this doesn’t even go into how they gave him a wonderful character arc in Anatawa Hitorijanai that tied to him being a leader, which just goes to show how much they adore him in such a role.

Anyways, this gives me all the validation for Raph still being in charge and him co-leading with Leo, plus the movie kept things intentionally ambiguous (I like to think that the Rise writers fought for Raph to remain in charge because they really love him that much considering there was a planned and explicit change of leadership in the movie’s deleted final scene which the Rise crew likely went ‘no <3′ to just like Nick did to them lol).

As always, fuck Nickelodeon for not letting the writers have creative freedom and for being total scumbags.

Am I the only person that hated s4 of tua?

Look, i am a big fan of the series, and I was so happy when the new season came out.

And s3 was a bit long for me, in the sense that some scenes were boring, so I wasnt too unhappy with a shorter season.

But what was this

Spoilers for The umbrella Academy season 4!

First of all, the whole Five and Lila relationship.

They are platonic friends, like siblings. Who thought it would be a fun idea to make them romantic all of a sudden?

"Oh, but they got stuck in time for 7 years its only natural"

You have to be shitting me.

I've been celibate for over 7 years, you think I'd date my brothers WIFE if we spend time tgt for those years? No. Fuck no.

It doesnt even seem to click with Five's personality, because he's so insanely loyal and caring towards his family. He would not do that, if we were to follow his personality from s1 to 3.

This brings me to Ben.

I have never been the biggest sparrow Ben fan, I'll admit that. I've always been an umbrella Ben fan and sometimes I wished sparrow Ben was more like him.

So you can imagine, I was happy when he started to appear more caring for Jeniffer.

Until they totally switched up his character.

Yes, he was influenced by the bond (which reminds me of the whole nesting situation of the last episode, which I must admit was very entertaining) which made him more loving yadaydaydaya. But everyone shows their love in a different way, sparrow Ben' type of loving is in no way shape or form sweettalking and grossly cutesy forms of affaction.

You might think so (the writers apparently did) but I surely disagree.

So his personality was, as you might guess, also out of the window.

His talking brings me to my next point. The dialogue.

I'm not sure if its just me, but it was so.goddamn.messy.

It was no dialogue, it was just a bomb of one liners aiming for nothing.

It had no feeling, no personality. Its as if the writers saw the one liners we liked, pasted them into an ai engine, and let it spit out 100 new ones to fill the movie.

I would like to give specific examples, but it happened all.the.time. If you dont believe me, watch the last episode. The only in character person was Victor (even though he's not my bestie, I loved that they stayed true to his character) with wanting to save his siblings, standing up to their father, wanting to keep his peace but always choosing to help his siblings no matter how much they hurt him in the past.

He was the only one who felt like the same person as the other season. Even Reggie was a goddamn mess (and thats something to say about that uptight bastard)

Now this part is purely personal. But the plot? The scenes? The entire construction was such a mess.

First of all. 7 years in that station? 7years? Youre telling me that super smart old man Five didnt think to look at those lines first before stepping in that train? You think "I must know everything and enything about everything and anything" Five didnt look up, took a good glance at those letters and knew. "Mhmm. Thats that weird writing my father used. How bout I try to TRANSLATE it BEFORE i step on this mystery train?"

If you think him stepping on a random train, not even looking at the map he picked up is in charcater? Sincerely, quit shitting my dick cuz no way you think that.

And then him giving up on finding his siblings? He was in an apocalypse for what? 50 years? And he always kept the stupid eye, thinking it might save his siblings. And now, here he is, giving up on them cuz he' a lil lost in daddy's train station?

Babes, you cant be serious.

Im aware that this post is very opinionated, and perhaps negative, but thats just how itll be. But if you feel offended by anything here, I do apologise. I love the series aswell, but his season, felt more like a 12 year old' followup story of season 3 (and that is not to say that 12 yo' cant write, cuz some of them r amazing, but you get the idea) and I cant believe they actually funded this.

And that is not to start about the decisions they made. Ben making them drink the marigold? Five not just going back to that moment if he could time travel (which he coulve bcz him and Lila went back to the "present" which is 7 years earlier than when they were stuck). Then stop them from drinking the Sake/Marigold. Merging the marigold with Jennifer and everything is fixed? Bcz they didnt have their powers anymore?

Either way

I might follow up on this, I might not.

But I do hope that some share my opinion, even if many dont.

Bye loves!
