Your Season Two Newsreader TV Week Scans!

Throughout the entirety of The Newsreader’s S2, I collected the TV Week for each of the six episodes and weeks. There’s something seriously special about collecting physical media for this show, I feel as though it honours the period the show is set in and how things were in that 1980s era. I have been sharing these on my Twitter and in the Discord for the show too, but I thought I’d pop them all on Tumblr too for easy accessibility. These are all scans of my actual magazines which I have taken the time to physically scan, edit and put together. As a result, please respect the watermarking on it and do not try to pass these off as your own. This also includes cropping certain sections out, like side panels or smaller interviews. Please respect the time, effort and actual money that went into me bringing these to you. Thank you!

Week One - Decision 87 (9th-15th September 2023)

Week Two - People Like You And Me (16th-22nd September 2023)

Week Three - Greed And Fear (23rd-29th September 2023)

Week Four - The Hungry Truth (30th September-6th October 2023)

Week Five - A Model Daughter + Bonus Michelle Interview (7th-13th October 2023)

Week Six - Fireworks (14th-20th October 2023)

RELIC HUNTER, 1.04

[bubacorn]

i am convinced that Hunter and Kevin dressed up as Bill and Ted for halloween at some point

[catwouthats]

Hate how my brain made a DC fan comic “The Ordinary Adventures of Preston Lindsey” BECAUSE I CAN NOT BRING IT TO LIFE???

If you’re wondering, it’s where Preston goes to college to major in film. He’s trying to make a documentary series on superheroes, villains, and the supernatural, etc, so he can put in his portfolio for a job. He thinks he’s going out of his way to get interviews and record dangerous fights. Oh and also, he keeps on dragging his roommate into this shit, which annoys his roommate because his roommate is fucking Timothy Hunter.

I also can’t stop thinking about him trying to record/talk with a hero while they’re in a big fight. The hero being like “LEAVE it’s DANGEROUS!” and him being like, “it’s okay! I’ve gotten shot before; I can handle it! 😄”

Preston Choi's 'This Is Not a True Story' Examines the Dark History of Asian Heroines By Reclaiming Their Narrative

“Why do I have to die so you can learn your lesson?” Says Kim (Chacha Tahng), the ill-fated character from the Tony-Award-winning musical Miss Saigon, in Preston Choi’s This Is Not a True Story. She continues on her tirade with her fellow doomed counterparts, CioCio (Julia Cho) from the tragic Madame Butterfly, and Kimiko (Jo Yuan) from the 2014 film, Kimiko: The Treasure Hunter.  Continue…

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Relic Hunter Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Nigel Bailey & Preston Bailey Characters: Nigel Bailey, Preston Bailey Additional Tags: Whumptober 2022, no.21: take me instead, Double Drabble, nigel is selfless Series: Part 20 of Relic Hunter - Whumptober 2022 Summary:

Whumptober no. 21: Famous Last Words - "Take me instead."

Nigel trades himself for Preston.

“Take me instead.”

Preston’s eyes widen. “Nigel –”

“Shut up,” Nigel cuts off his brother, not taking his eyes off the two men who were just manhandling Preston from the room. “I’m better with languages, I can translate the texts better.” It took a long time for Nigel to feel as though he could claim that he was better at something than Preston, but it’s true. And now that gift is going to get Preston out of trouble.

One of the henchmen nods and they throw Preston aside.

“Tell Syd…” Nigel’s voice drifts. He only knows what Preston knows, that someone wants a necklace worn by Queen Nefertiti. Sydney can narrow down the location just as well as he can, even without the texts – he’s seen her do more with less. He thinks about having Preston tell her a million things that he suddenly needs her to know and then dismisses all of them. She’ll find him. “Oh never mind.”

Nigel goes with the men. He’s not used to making big gestures, especially when his brother’s involved, but he knows that he’s better equipped to handle this kind of situation despite the two hunts Preston has now taken part in.

The Newsreader's S2 Episode Four and Five Synopses have been shared!

As we get closer to the conclusion of our so far awesome second season, we're learning about two more episodes!

I am also very excited for the addition of Lynus Preston and how the show will be exploring the truths behind the concept of the Bicentennial, how it marked 200 years of colonisation in Australia and what this meant to the Indigenous community here. It honestly brings me great joy to see Geoff being manhandled by protestors too in the promo clip! 😂 It will be really interesting to see Dale putting together royal puff pieces alongside Helen's drive to get Lynus on telly, as a way of making sure that Helen can do this. I'm having a feeling we're all about to fall in love with Lynus and it is brilliant to welcome him to The Newsreader family! What a formidable season this will be! 🥰💖📺🌟

The fifth episode, oh goodness it is touching my heart. Just from the title alone I had suspicions that it would be a female-centric episode, hopefully focusing on Helen and Noelene, and I was right! Not only that, we're getting to hear from Kay and her heartbreaking story. I've already got a soft spot for this woman as I can just see something troubled behind her eyes. Seeing Helen and Noelene work properly together as a team and how they'll be affected by Kay's story is honestly a dream come true. In the 80s, Prime Minister Bob Hawke's daughter Rosslyn had some very public struggles with her own heroin addiction that caused him to have a public breakdown, so there are some very interesting historical parallels here too. What effect will this have on Geoff and Evelyn? This episode is going to air in my birthday week so happy birthday to me!

Congrats to the ultimate winner of the Hot & Vintage Movie Men Tournament, Mr. Toshiro Mifune! May he live happily and well where the sun always shines, enjoying the glories of a battle hard fought.

A loving farewell to all of our previous contestants, who are now banished to the shadow realm and all its dark joys and whispered horrors—I hear there's a picnic on the village green today. If you want to remember the fallen heroes, you can find them all beneath the cut.

What happens next? I'll be taking a break of two weeks to rest from this and prep for the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament. I'll still be around but only minimally, posting a few last odes to the hot men before transitioning into a little early ladies content, just like I did with this last tournament. The submission form for the Hot & Vintage Ladies tournament will remain up for one more week (closing February 21st), so get your submissions in for that asap! Once the form closes, there will be one more week of break. The first round of the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament will be posted on February 29th, as Leap Year Day seems like a fitting allusion to leaping into these ladies' arms.

Thanks for being here! Enjoy the two weeks off, and send me some great propaganda.

Welp, I finished reading Doom Box

I screenshot these two because I feel like I have an art idea for these two

[samprestonbigbadabruce]

Thoughts on first viewing of ‘Paris, Texas’

Previous to this, I’d only seen one film from Wim Wenders, which was a 2014 film called The Salt of the Earth, which followed photographer Sebastiao Salgado. I know this because I went on Letterboxd to check, but whilst I am sure it’s full of beautiful imagery (I mean, it’s about a photographer who takes photos of landscapes, territories, and plant life), it left little impact on me. A case of “looks pretty, but not much substance”.

When watching films, I am one of those that can appreciate great cinematography, beautiful images, etc, but I have little patience when it comes to style over substance. I need to have something with dimension to make the scene worthwhile. If it’s just a camera watching some water running or a field of grass for three minutes just because, I’m probably not going to enjoy the film. Let me discuss three examples to give you evidence:

I love The Assassination of Jesse James by Andrew Dominik, despite being a slow burner of a movie with lots of scenes dedicated to the surroundings or having a gorgeous image like a silhouette of Jesse James walking in the dark to rob a train. The reason I love it is because the scenes such as Jesse’s silhouette helps build up the legend and mythical nature of the outlaw, making him a deity, before the gradual deterioration of that legend in the eyes of Robert Ford.

One of my favourite scenes of all time is ‘The Lighting of the Beacons’ in The Return of the King. I remember the first time I saw it in cinema, I was holding my breath as the camera covers these fields, these mountain tops, etc, he gorgeous scenery of New Zealand on display. However, these shots matter because it also follows the lightning of beacons between Gondor and Rohan, Pippin having lighted the first beacon to call for aid and we follow this journey to Rohan, seeing the answering of the call. It’s a moment that has the context of Gandalf trusting Pippin, who rises to the occasion, and the question of whether Rohan will come to Gondor’s aid after King Theoden earlier hinted they wouldn’t. That doesn’t even consider the wondrous music from Howard Shore, a God among composers.

And yet, I can’t stand The Tree of Life. I am not a fan of Malick, one because I feel he’s inconsiderate of the actors he brings in, using them for multiple scenes then cutting them without communicating to them, leading to the moment where Adrien Brody went to the premiere of The Thin Red Line having been made out he was the leading role, only to be cut down to 90 seconds. But more than that, I find The Tree of Life more concerned with looking pretty than focusing on a fascinating story of Sean Penn as an adult struggling with the tempestuous relationship he had with his father Brad Pitt. You have these scenes focusing on Penn, Pitt and Chastain that should be emotionally hard hitting, with Pitt especially impressive, but Malick is too busy following a blade of grass. It says something when the most beautiful scene, the creation of the universe and life on our planet, could be cut out completely and you wouldn’t miss it. Malick is too busy chronically masturbating the visual screen and hoping you’ll ask him what it means. It means a waste of my fucking time.

So after all that, imagine my surprise when I thought this film was great. Harry Dean Stanton has always been an underappreciated actor to some degrees, as he could be guaranteed to add a bit of class to a movie. If I remember correctly, Roger Ebert used to say that no movie that features Stanton can be truly bad (which means Ebert would be a fan of The Avengers, you heard it here first). And yet, this is one of the few films that has Stanton as the main actor.

In fact, Stanton also has the similarly talented Dean Stockwell in support. The first half of the film has Stanton almost completely mute, more akin to a mystery box with Stockwell the protagonist, before transitioning to Stanton as the lead in the second half when he begins to look for Jane, and it’s wonderful to see both actors entrusted to carry their half of the movie.

The inclusion of Wenders’ photography and cinematography is actually vital in this movie as it helps sell the feeling of seclusion in the desert, giving Stanton’s Travis an otherworldly mystery to his character.

Hunter Carson is only 8-9 years old during this movie, and he could have been an uncomfortable albatross as the main focus for the characters. Instead, Carson as Hunter is excellent, a realistic depiction of a confused 8 year old whose gradual change of body language towards Travis is subtle but impactful. He is probably the silent MVP of the movie.

The third act where Stanton as Travis and Nastassja Kinski as Jane is engrossing. It’s mostly a monologue where Travis opens up and admits his mistakes to an unaware Jane, but the decision to have the two separated by both glass and sight is inspired. It evokes the chasm between the two due to their previous actions, but also allows both to bare themselves in ways they otherwise may not. Stanton can see Kinski but not touch her, and yet turns away from her due to his shame, whereas Kinski cannot see but can hear Stanton and stares at her own reflection throughout. I find this decision fascinating, as Stanton staring away also enforces his decision that he must leave her behind, while Kinski staring at herself allows her to face her history and previous actions.

The reveal that Travis was once so jealous and nearly cruel is a shocking reveal but is wonderfully reminiscent of the underlying possible depths to the world the characters inhabit. The desert was beautiful, but a terrifying location that swallowed Travis for four years. The marriage between Stockwell and his wife as parents for Hunter is heartwarming but built upon a self-deluding lie as Hunter is not really their child. And the supposed gentle nature of Travis and flaky abandonment by Jane is actually a damaged relationship that required Jane to escape Travis and leave Hunter with her brother-in-law instead.

This is almost perfectly embodied in the title itself, as you hear the word Paris and instantly think of France, when Stanton is actually focused on Paris in Texas, where he was supposedly conceived. It takes the obvious and unpacks it to reveal a more humane, personal aspect.

I forgot to mention that the soundtrack was amazing.

Overall, this movie has been stuck in my mind ever since I watched it, specifically that end scene, and that’s what Paris, Texas does, it burrows within without letting go. I didn’t expect to love it as much as I did, but that third act is probably worth a star or two singlehandedly. The first 90 minutes can sometimes feel a little bit slow or even drag slightly, but that ending makes the journey worthwhile, bit like every road trip itself.
