I believe in my heart of hearts that the Lego Batman movie exists in DC and that it was created by the batfamily as a way to throw off the conspiracy theorists

Maybe the superhero forums were getting too close to realizing their identities again. maybe one of their injuries had accidentally gotten spotted by the paparazzi. maybe they were just running out of plausible alibis. maybe they just wanted to be funny.

Bruce gave the world the "do the butts match" meme. His children give the world a cinematic masterpiece.

he's just a silly little guy (sooo me if i were a man)

In "Taxi Driver," Travis Bickle, a Vietnam veteran, symbolizes alienation and loneliness in a decaying city. His spiral of violence reflects his frustration and a distorted view of justice. The film criticizes the corruption and inequality of urban life, while exploring the protagonist's descent into madness. In the end, it proposes a deep reflection on society and the human psyche.

obsessed w that scene in the polar bear episode where shawn wheels gus into the room on a rolly chair as his "expert witness" and the man theyre talking to lights up like "are you a doctor?" and without missing a beat gus inclines his head and goes "i work in the medical field" with 100% unwavering confidence. in another life theyd be fleecing millions off rich people.

possibly my favorite thing about Gus and Shawn's dynamic is at first you kind of feel bad for Gus, like wow this normal and mature adult is still saddled with his disaster, immature, maybe a little selfish best friend. but then you realize. wait a minute. Gus is just as much of a dumbass as Shawn. more often than not, he rolls with the alias nicknames without hesitation, sometimes better than Shawn, bullshits just as hard as Shawn, and has his fair share of wildly stupid moments

case in point:

Lassiter and Shawn from Psych are yet another ship i thought people were exaggerating but no i just watched the weatherman court case episode and Lassie is so fucked

Psych − 5.05: Shawn And Gus In Drag (Racing)

[enter-the-phantom]

So as long as we’re discussing queer readings of Psych can we please discuss the fact that this show had one of the greatest (and only) canonical portrayals of a squish in media history?

Like I’m all for the interpretations of Shawn/Despereaux as Bi Disaster Shawn, but as an Ace person the canon portrayal of Shawn’s obsession with Despereaux as a platonic squish is so important to me. I’ve always loved how Psych as a show is centered more around the platonic relationships between characters (even the romantic subplots are heavily rooted in and affected by platonic affection). It’s one of the reasons it’s such a special show to me and so many other Ace/Aro people; I love how so many of my relationship experiences as an AroAce are mirrored in this show and how validating it feels to see them treated seriously.

Even if Shawn himself isn’t ace, seeing an essential part of the Ace experience for so many of us openly portrayed is really cool and always made me so happy. Ace interpretations are queer interpretations and I don’t think it downplays the inherent queerness of this relationship at all to talk about it as a squish rather than a crush. I mean, obviously, interpret it in whatever way makes you feel seen, but I just think it’s really cool that the show went out of its way to portray a dude’s adorable wholesome obsession with the pure coolness of another dude in a way that spoke to so many Ace folks.

Shawn (and Gus) of the Dead

First of all, that is a perfect title.

Now, this episode is one of my favorites of season 2. Its so funny, its such a fun concept, and the ending is fantastic! The crime is so elaborate though its kind of insane. To summarize, this guy killed his dad by pistol whipping him down the stairs. The gun gets willed to the museum. Lassie is gung-ho about solving it because its a big name and he’s getting lots of press. This guy, who’s on the board of the museum, apparently having tried everything to get the guns except appeal to their sentiment, then decides to bribe the warehouse guy into hiding him in a snufflophagus, tilts the camera (though apparently him walking out of the coffin wasn’t caught??) so you can’t see him at the case, fails to open that same case, kills the guard, goes back for the van, apparently sees gus and shawn tailing him and books it, even though he doesn’t know who they are, crashes the van into a tree for some reason, puts the mummy in the drivers seat (lol), then runs into the forest like a madman. This guy had to have been on cocaine or something. I’d love to hear him explain to the other prisoners how he got caught.

Carlton was kind of an ass to sophie for no reason. Like i get that he thought the case was beneath him, that he was eager to return to the homicide, but considering she knew Wyles, you’d think he’d have at least treated her like a witness instead of completely disregarding her (and being pretty misogynistic)

But kudos to juliet for standing up for her. One of the things that irritated me sometimes about juliet and carlton was when they’d have her apologize for his behavior- but i love when she stands up to him. I’m not a big fan of the idea that a person can “fix” another person (its too long to explain right now), which is what i think juliet did, or at least, helped him face his own behavior throughout the series. I don’t think its fair to juliet to be placed in that position, though. It honestly feels like she’s babysitting him sometimes.

Heres a few scattered notes:

Two things: 1. How dare wardrobe make this poor woman wear these peep toe high heels. They look so uncomfortable. 2. I had to point out Shawns shirt because it made me realize that i do in fact, still find James completely huggable haha. I bet he gives amazing hugs.

Impressed by Dulé’s run here haha

James, i swear to god. He does not waste a single goddamn frame lol

The fact that gus keeps sniffing women, makes me believe his attraction to them is heavily scent based haha its so creepy.

This moment feels like the writers roasting both james and shawn simultaneously haha

This might be an unpopular take on this, but Shawn helping Karen get the job seems like a really thoughtful thing to do for her, and the way they shot the scene with her looking at him appreciatively certainly makes it look so, but if im honest, i think it had more to do with self preservation. Shawn has a good thing going. Im sure part of it was because he liked karen, shawn is a genuinely nice person, i just don’t think its the main reason. (Sidenote: i think its so cute how excited Gus is about it though)

Now for the Henry of it all.

I love how close henry came to having a nice moment with little shawn and then absolutely blowing it. I think that sums up his parenting pretty well haha like he means well, but he just sucks at it.

I think its so interesting that Maddie returning makes him so flustered. He doesn’t hold any anger or resentment towards her, he’s not biting at Shawn because he hates her, he’s nervous. He’s cleaning the house because he wants to impress her. I have to believe this is the first time she’s going to be seeing him since she ran off. Which is kind of sad because they share a kid together. They’d didn’t once have a family Christmas since then?

What i don’t understand, is how she managed to contact henry before shawn. They’re divorced. I know shawns phone broke, but is she really calling so infrequently that it never came up? Im going to discuss maddie more next season when we actually meet her. Right now she’s more myth than anything.

Which really helped make the season 2 cliffhanger so freaking potent! Its so simple, and yet the tension built up was effective as hell! I think more tv shows should take note. Too many tv cliffhangers these days feel like life or death and not enough are riding on family drama.

P.S

What do you mean that wasn’t his first time alone in a coffin?? Wha-why? Why was he in one?? What was he doing?

[internallysalad]

OH I AM CONNECTING DOTS HERE I DID NOT KNOW THIS AAAAA SO
