My brother-in-law has a Thing where he gives me increasingly rare copies of The Bee Movie and it’s long since gone from “Goofy running gag” to “I don’t know how much money he’s willing to commit to this bit and it Scares Me.”
In celebration, @avesmonster and I have spent this year organizing an anthology of fanworks, and I'm so happy to finally be able to share it. It's such a labor of love from everyone involved, and it's incredible to see how passionate people still are about this show. We received over 50 (!!) submissions, both old and new, so please, please check it out, let everyone know how awesome their work is, & leave a comment on our guestbook, while you're there!!
I know we used to joke that what made OFMD special was the cast and crew being normal about queer people but actually, no. They're not normal about queer people, they're feral about us. They're adoring about queer people. They approach queerness with such joy and depict it with such incredible care and excitement and love. They approach making a show about queerness with the same level of childlike glee Steven Spielberg approached making a movie about dinosaurs. And I fucking LOVE IT.
I love this gay ass show with its literally life ending injuries that heal immediately, but only when convenient to the plot, and its ridiculous use of modern phrases, and its laughing in the face of historical accuracy, and its kissing the face of the fans instead of trying to outwit them, and the way everyone involved in the show seem to go 'I KNOW RIGHT! I'M EXCITED TOO!' instead of mocking the fans
jacob anderson heard pride month was over and knew something had to be done for the gays. so naturally he shared that two of his houseplants are named louis and lestat.
Random fact abt the fo4 va's: both Peter jessop's (danse) and Keythe Farley's (Kellogg) kids played fallout 4, Keythe's kid would come back from school and tell his dad "my friends killed you in the game and it was so bloody and violent!!!" Frequently after the game was released and Peter would walk up behind his kids while they played fallout 4 and say random paladin danse dialogues in their ears to scare them
