What I did love was noticing Tuah wielding a Keris, which is a Javanese dagger.

[summyreads]

yes.

rewriting 2o2g In My Head

first off we're gonna ditch tuah being an old friend of andy's because i dont think that makes sense. like theres these other immortals for centuries, and joe and nicky and quynh havent dreamed about them for some reason altho nile has, and andy's been lying about them, and whatever? dumb.

instead, we'll have tuah and uma both exist largely as the same characters only they will have figured out some [handwaves] way of keeping themselves separate from the other immortals because they Dont Want A Part Of What Andromache Is Doing. for different reasons: tuah's become something of a pacifist, wants to be with his books, and uma thinks they shouldnt interfere with the lives of mortals.

fast forward to now. we forget the whole first/last plot, the whole losing/giving immortality thing. uma's figured out some way - maybe using the research merrick managed to do? - to slow and even stop the immortality, and kill them.

she's going after them.

tuah reveals himself to andy and the crew, and theyre not sure if they can trust him, but he's a good guy and he proves it. etc etc

quynh stuff happens more or less the same, i think.

nile isnt a fucking plot-convenient weapon who is being used without her knowledge or consent. dumb.

booker never loses his immortality because suicidal people shouldnt be handed a noose and told to just have at it. andy is mortal the entire movie, and when uma tries to leech her immortality from her in their fight scene, she just laughs.

i think also theres a bit here where theres like - uma has figured out how to kill them, the thing booker wanted merrick to do. so nicky doesnt trust booker to have their backs in a fight against her. and booker says he's on their side, he's not gonna betray them again, and thats enough for joe, and it drives the wedge further between nicky and joe.

i'd cut down the whole final sequence to about eleven minutes of action total tbh. and then i'd end with uma managing to escape, but our gang victorious, with some injuries (andy, copley) and a big happy dinner scene or something ending it on a high note.

yeah i'm a sucker for a soft ending okay?

[summyreads]

Wait. Guys. Is Copley alive? Am I missing something?

I am forever in love with the scene where Merlin kills Agravaine. There's that exact moment (↑) in which he realises he has to do it, that Agravaine has to die, and I love the mixture of regret and badassery as he gets ready to do it. he knows he's the most powerful person in the room and he gives up any pretense otherwise. it's a glimpse into how powerful merlin could be if his magic did not need to be a secret. like, he may not enjoy killing, but he can and will do it.

the magic itself is also the coolest thing ever, so quietly powerful:

and who could forget, this incredible line after Agravaine finds out he has magic.

So the last weeks I have been rewatching the twilight saga with my sister and this made me realised how well done the love triangle in heirs of the night is.

I mean instead of a girls just being torn between two hot boys for the drama and the fans to choose a side and fight about it, the heirs of the night triangle serves as amazing symbolism.

The story follows Alisa, all leading to her going to the knot, having to decide between humans and vampires. And what are her love interests? Yes, a human and a vampire!

Also the scenes leading to the knot, with more and more friends being left behind untill it's only the three of them. Her having to choose between Lars and Nicu, who are threatened to be killed? This is pure Gold!

I love the fact that the boys are so different, in their character, their looks, and clothing. Each one presenting one of the worlds Alisa is a part of. Night and day, darkness and light, hunter and prey, life and death.

I will never let people water it down to a dumb, tropey teen show, because it just isn't!!

Was chatting in another discord about DMBJ (Daomu Biji), and I had to say this... honestly, I think it's pretty accurate. 🤣

the funniest part of fangs of fortune to me has to be that the little piece of zhu yan's soul ended up going to zhuo yichen all on its own

like zhao yuanzhou really went "ok this boy is never gonna find me, guess i still gotta do eVerYtHinG mySelF"

More flowers

[summyreads]

Rick was evil for making ambrosia taste like home. Like ur dying in the war and u suddenly taste your mom's apple pie. I'd start bawling!!

[summyreads]

The flowers I went to see were just so pretty and the day was perfect for them

[summyreads]

They were like, "We need someone to portray an emotionally gripping tragic love story in five minutes and weep beautifully while dripping blood."

And he did it!

Just thought this shot was really cute
