COWBOY ★ CARTER ★ TOUR London - Night 5

[sleepyowling]

the cowboy carter tour was absolutely incredible. BUT.

if you’re in the standing area, take your damn hat off. i don’t care whether in you’re in the front. as long as you’re not with your back to the wall, there are people behind you that can’t see because of your hat. so have some decency and take it off.

i’m curious to learn people’s opinions.

(i personally found it curious that they repeated a song title, when the title is not very obvious)

[sleepyowling]

are they still making the badshit crazy anime la of the 2010s? those of the type of my darling gangsta. and others like jormungand. those that follow the steps of black lagoon. because my impression is that we lost that recipe.

[sleepyowling]

our spiritually elevated rejection of canon vs their intellectually dishonest refusal to engage with the text

season 4 is a mess, and i cannot even say it’s a hot one. and i won’t lie - i hate it because of what they did to mycroft’s character and his relationship with sherlock.

[sleepyowling]

i feel like the purpose of the extremely thin bond girl is to make the public think “sexual dimorphism goes brrrrr”

[sleepyowling]

kaytranada timeless is one of the absolute best shows i’ve ever seen.

TIMELESS.

CLASSIC.

i don’t want to be alarmist, but i’m not entirely sure that people know how to behave at rock concerts anymore. half of the audience was frozen in place, a quarter was filming on their phones, and majority of the rest was only swaying in place.

and the concert was amazing - proficient musicians, crazy energy, interesting lighting, sufficient production, historical venue.

the audience? nah.

i love how wide of an impact pacific rim has on fanfiction, across various fandom. there are a total of 10 thousand pacific rim fics, but nearly 3 thousand fics tagged as pacific rim au (most of them not tagged in the pacific rim fandom).

it shows the truly unique set up of pacific rim and the vast and fertile ground that it is for studying relationships.

[sleepyowling]

it hurts so much to move from a fandom with 80K+ fics to a fandom with 3K fics. the unfairness of it all.

it makes me question life: do you want me to actually start writing fanfics??

young walter’s va is such a menace. walter overall is such a menace. i absolutely love him.

[sleepyowling]

major is a true genius.

and the foreshadowing of his strategy was absolutely brilliant.

and his perception of alucard is truly fascinating.

feels painful to say but the long wait during the speech and in waiting of the reveal of what we already know was well executed. the fight with seras was amazing so we don’t lose any of the pacing, it only just built up.

overall, the story line with familiars felt quite well developed.

[sleepyowling]

i must admit that i’m lowkey living for seeing walter fight. i remember seeing those scenes in passing years ago and being absolutely enraptured.

low key the best action in hellsing.

besides the obsession with guns. the adoration for guns of all forms is always so clearly see. all of the visual love letters at every opportunity. that’s the best part. and i don’t have any affinity for guns but the care and love and passion to portray the beauty and significance of each gun overflows from the screen.

alucard says no to agism. the irony. (though it does tie beautifully to his story arc in the previous episode)

alucard says no to sexism. though not entirely. a possessive bastard though.

“were i to turn traitor, id deliver a notice in writing”

and the other guy agreed. wow.

ok, the british are built different. or rather their portrayal in hellsing. and i liked that nepotism also got a fair portrayal. though a bit unrealistic but still it was somewhat addressed.

[sleepyowling]

watching hellsing and seeing all of their distinct eyes makes me really sad that drifters was cancelled. i really used to enjoy that show.
