watching two dozen interviews of wes ball talk about how he made the maze runner movies is genuinely such a pleasure to watch. it's so so clear that he deeply loves the content of the maze runner books while still understanding that they're fucking insane and makes next to no sense. the vision he has for the movies are unparalleled, the way he slims down the books while still upping the character moments is so impressive!! he was able to capture the heart of the series while still making it really accessible to a general audience. it has a clear trilogy feel to it, which a lot of trilogies do NOT have. and the best part is the cast LOVES him, you can tell just by the way they describe and poke fun of wes that this project would NOT work without him. also the way the cast NEVER talks about dashner is so fucking good. they're like 'omg there's wes, the genius, doing a one man show haha so silly, ily wes' and then it hard cuts to someone being like 'james is on set a lot.'

Should i watch masters of the air?
i mean. obviously i'm going to say yes, as it's been making me insane for weeks now and i want more people to watch it!! 🥰 i don't think it's as "good" or as fully formed thematically as band of brothers but i DO absolutely think there's worthwhile stuff in the show! it's shot beautifully and has several characters that i really, really love and well. those two guys are gay as hell and insane about it!!! if anything in my past 3 videos struck a chord with you then yes i think you should try it :) but also it is at its core a ww2 show so if you're not into those i can't fault you that! i think the pilot (ha) is really strong so maybe just try that out and see if it's your thing!

on todays episode of ‘wow, merlin is literally this song’. yk what is horrifically merlin coded? waiting room by phoebe bridgars. “if you were a waiting room, i’d never see the doctor. i would sit with my first aid kit and bleed.” arthur is his waiting room. and merlin WAITS THERE. never free, always scared and in hiding, always lying, he never fulfills his destiny- he STAYS with arthur, in their little waiting room til its forcibly taken from him.
also the “know its for the better” over and over and OVER AGAIN, all of merlins sacrifices being for the better of destiny and all of albion. him keeping quiet about his magic, about all the things hes done (nearly letting mordred die, nimuehs death, poisoning morgana) because its for the better. because it was for destiny.
and all the people hes lost (will saying hes a sorcerer in his place before dying himself, freyas death, balinors death, lancelots sacrifice in his place) was all for the better. freya had to die to become the lady of the lake (and like what i think with wills death, so he wouldnt have anyone distracting him away from his destiny with arthur), balinor had to die so merlin would inherit his dragonlord abilities, lancelot had to die in merlins place so he could stay at arthurs side. merlin losing everyone was for the better. and personally i am not okay with that

there's one line in this song i can't come up with a clip for and normally that wouldn't be an issue because i generally don't adhere too closely to lyrics when i vid, i use them more as a general thematic guide
but it is like the climactic line so i do actually need something significant and dramatically satisfying here :/
