Finally watched Blue Eye Samurai and damn, this show really is everything everyone's been saying. But also man, it's really making me think how much I wish non-animated shows focused on visuals. With everything being nearly-fully CGI, why do movies and shows have to look so... boring? If a friend group with a 90s camcorder can do it, why can't Disney (check out GGLS btw)? Idk, just frustrates me. Anyway, here's this show being eye candy.
when you and your friends are joking about how there's going to be a mattel cinematic universe now after barbie was so successful only to realize that's exactly what has already been in the works for the last few years
note: blumhouse is thankfully no longer attached to this one
so basically a while ago I saw a post on reddit with this cool little chain post format where they'd get the starkid reddit community to cast Hatchetfield: The Movie. Obviously, i did what any other sensible person would do and decides to transfer it over to the multiple starkid servers I was in on reddit (this was before I got tumblr) after multiple days of hard work and voting, here's what we ended up with!
pretty cool, right? And I decided to make the dumb mistake of coming up with a plot for this thing, so I've decided to share with you all what I've gotten so far! And by the way, shoutout to u/SuperKE1125 on reddit for giving me the idea in the first place!
Ted and Gary sue Pamela for being a terrible mother (Ted does it because Pete told him about how his new friend at High School, Hannah, seemed like she wasnt being taken care of well and underneath the tough exterior Ted actually cares) and Dan and Donna get an interview with him because all the Peanuts stories are getting stale. While setting up for the interview, A Man in a Hurry bumps into Gary. He apologises and the 2 soon hit it off. We then cut to Gary going over to the Monroe residence to discuss the will or smth. Linda tells Gary that suing Pamela is a terrible idea but Gerald is actually supportive of the idea. Ted and Gary then start gathering some evidence as to why she's a terrible mother and Dan, who's supportive, sends them over to his fellow reporter and best friend Boy Jerry. Boy Jerry tells them about how Pamela sent Hannah and Lex to Camp Idontwannabang and how he suspects that it was because Pamela didn't wanna have to take care of them over summer break, and she even suggested that Boy and Girl Jerry/i take care of them LONGER, which set off a red flag for Girl Jeri but Boy Jerry thought nothing of it. While visiting Jerry, Gary meets up Barry again and the two talk again for a while, with Barry saying that he thinks Gary is really cool for doing this and leaves after a suspiciously long time for a man in a hurry. Ted calls Gary out and says "With those heart eyes you were making around that guy I would've thought that you were dating" with Gary denying any feelings he had toward Barry. Boy Jerry says something about it being sinful and then we cut to the next scene.
Pamela Fostor was watching the Hatchetfield News and swooning over Dan Reynolds, when she heard that Ted Spankoffski and Gary Goldstein were planning on suing her. Pamela would be very mad at this, and felt betrayed that Dan would support this case. A suspicious man then enters the van, and makes Pamela mcswoon. He introduces himself as Wilbur Cross and offers to help Pamela out with the case a little and take care of the kids very flirtaciously, disappointing John/Wilbur fans across the globe. Pamela agrees, saying "Well you kinda look like Dan Reynolds" and asks how he's gonna take care of the case. Wilbur replies, "oh.. I have my ways."It would then cut to Ted, entering his apartment on the phone with Pete. He tells his brother how they're gonna go forward with the case, saying "It's pretty open and shut". Then, he hears a sound. A frame falling. A picture of the CCRP gang. Ted thinks nothing of it until he hears more sounds, coming from his room. Music, beckoning him forward. Sounding awfully familiar to a commercial he saw.. he enters the bedroom, only to be met with 4 giant bird things.. Sniggles! They all maul him apart, bit by bit, as he screams.
And that's literally it so far lol. Yall have any other ideas on how to move forward with this???
Pocketful of Miracles / Hope Lange as Elizabeth "Queenie" Martin
The story is set in the 1930s, but this gown owes much less to that era than to Elizabeth Taylor's dress from A Place in the Sun. This is unlikely to be a coincidence, as Edith Head designed both garments. The heavy ivory satin looks great, though, and I love the combination of ruching and sparkle on the bodice. The fur-trimmed shoulder cape makes it the perfect thing for a holiday party--appropriately, as the movie does take place around Christmastime. (You can see a bit of a tree in the background of some of the pictures above.)
