I don't want to be pedantic or anything, but I admittedly am one of those people who rolls my eyes really hard about the assumption that the eye of Sauron was a giant fireball of an eye on top of Barad-dûr. Jackson film brainrot non-canonical design.

Genuinely my main thing with the Watcher thing (I watch their stuff but I’d never consider myself a die hard fan) is that I really want to see the back end projections and business plans that went into this. Show me how their math mathed to the point that this seemed not just viable, but an improvement upon YouTube at this moment in time.

I’ve been watching it unfold all day and seeing the comparisons to Dropout, the unfortunate optics of reinstating the “let’s go eat stupidly expensive stuff” show as your first big new thing for the platform while also saying you don’t have money to do the “TV-quality” things you want, all that’s fine and dandy and not incorrect. But I just can’t see how this is financially going to win out.

I wish the boys the best, hope it works out for their sakes, and I hope regardless that one day we get an idea of what the decision making process was. Not the vague “ad revenue ain’t what it used to be” type comments they made in their very not-reading-the-room announcement video, but actual numbers. I’m super interested.

Bruh so I was checking my email to try to see when I first noticed my retinal detachment, because I caught it so early on that it was initially misdiagnosed as a visual migraine symptom, and I thought it was earlier this year that I first noticed it, but actually it was back in MAY 2023

GURL I’ve been letting my retina slowly detach for like a year and a half BRUH WHAT?? It was detached at my wedding??? Gurl I’m NEVER getting the full vision back LOLLLL

So anyway—you know how Rey sliced up Kylo’s face at the end of TFA, well—guess what—Kylo Ren is partially blind in his right eye. You know—because I said so

So for reasons (fanfic, the reasons are always fanfic), I was reading one of the books from the Japanese film course I took in college, A Hundred Years of Japanese Film by Donald Richie and I was really taken with this chapter on the earliest days of Japanese film-making. For context, Onoe Matsunosuke was a hugely popular actor between 1909 and when he died in 1926. He was famous for his athleticism, particularly kabuki-style sword-fighting. Makino Shozu was described by the book as "the first person to deserve the title of Director in the Western sense of the word."

Onoe has said that during this period of early filmmaking, neither actors nor directors used a script. Instead, Makino carried the plot in his head and called out the lines for the actors while they were on camera, just like the joruri chanter in bunraku. Onoe also recalled what hard work it was. He was required to make nine or more features a month, which meant that he was working on three separate features at any one time. Sometimes, he said, he was so exhausted that he mixed up his parts. And, indeed, overworked, he died on the set."

All of this is to say that I hate that Bleach Episode #298: Film! Festival! Shinigami Film Festival!, in which Ichigo stars in multiple films at once and almost dies, and Renji directs a film by yelling stage directions at people appears to be '''historically accurate,''' but that does, in fact, seem to be the case.
