Stranger Things 4: a Review
So no hellcheer? *stomps on tv remote*
This is so much fun.
I still feel like the movie slapped me in the face, so I decided to post a meme.
It didn’t help.
The Rise of Skywalker: a Review
what the what
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
His father is away, and so is his mother, even if she rarely leaves the palace.
It rains a lot when he's young, and no one tells him why.
---
She needs to be objective. Impartial. Unwavering. She needs to be.
And so she tries. She tries hard and when she looks into his eyes, she locks her heart away. She knows that, if she leaves it on plain sight, she will stop and think of how brilliant his eyes seem underneath the fire torch light; she’s staring at two pieces of burning coal.
His voice, low and gruff, reaches her ears. "Athena..."
She almost winces. You are just too much, she thinks, ashamed.
---
His hand is bleeding. As he lazily wraps a piece of cloth over his golden stained knuckles, facing the wall that just met his wrath, he's trying to deny it all.
Their father gave her a thunderbolt.
Their father, who has always been on and on about how lethal a weapon his thunderbolt was, passed such a weapon on to his daughter.
Not his son. Never him. He doesn't deserve it.
As if his thoughts could be read, he hears a sharp crack of lightning in the distance. He looks out his window.
That's her. He chuckles. When Zeus throws his thunderbolts, it's a long, low rumble that shakes the earth. He wants everyone to feel his anger, that prick.
What he just heard however, was different.
In many ways, he thinks, she's like a crack of lightning. She is the thunderclap he hears in the distance when he's caught in a rainfall.
11-year-old me: *ugly sobbing* SearCH FOR YOUR LOVE
Ariadne & Dionysus
Tethys: Titaness, daughter of Uranus and Gaia, wife of Oceanus and mother of the Oceanids. She was also Hera’s foster mother during the Titanomachy.
Styx: Oceanid, Zeus’ ally in the Titanomachy, mother of Nike, Zelus, Bia and Kratos. She’s the river that separates the Underworld from the living, and the one Gods swear their oaths upon.
Metis: Oceanid, the embodiment of wisdom and cunning, Athena’s mother by Zeus. She helped Zeus free his siblings and was his counsellor during the Titanomachy.
Electra: Oceanid, she married the sea god Thaumas, and one of her kids was Iris, the messenger of the Gods. I drew her hair like that because her name derives from the word ἤλεκτρον, which means amber, and amber can acquire a static electricity charge.
Person: Christina, why does teen Kraken look like a woodland creature?
Me: I don't know, Person; why did I have to spent half an hour sketching the perfect expression for teen Kraken's face, only to have the whole thing ruined by my unsteady hand later? Huh? Huh? Why do such things happen?
I was really excited for this one, and messing up the inking was NOT a happy accident.
However, I liked how mini Kraken turned out, so here you go.
Five: I married a mannequin.
*shows everyone a picture of Dolores*
Five: We don't need counseling.
Luther: Dad sent me to the moon!
Ben: That's rough, buddy.
Vanya: *writing about Allison in 'Extra Ordinary'*
It's mostly just dumb sister stuff.I mean, like, everyone always thought of her as the pretty one...Oh, she was the first one to start walking. Even though I did it, later that same day. But to our dad, by then it was like, "Yeah, right, so what else is new?"
After the Apocalypse is averted and Vanya is paralyzed and has lost her memory.
Diego: I just feel like someone reached down my throat, grabbed my small intestine, pulled it out of my mouth, and tied it around my neck.
Luther: Cookie?
Allison: Patrick, this is everybody. Everybody, this is Patrick.
Ben: Hey, Patrick.
Klaus: Hey, Patrick.
Diego: Hey, Patrick.
Vanya: Hi, Patrick.
Luther: I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name. Patrick, was it?
Kid Diego: Don't belittle me.
Kid Klaus: Ah, yes of course. Number 2 would like to clarify that just because his name is Number 2 does not imply in any way that he's inferior to Number 1.
Kid Diego: And all of the above.
Kid Luther: *murmurs something incoherent*
Kid Klaus: Number 1 says he's Number 1 for a reason and some people should just get used to it.
After Hotel Oblivion
(Spaceboy finds out Rumor has asked Number 5 to spy on her ex-husband)
Spaceboy: Now I'm losing her! What'll I do? What'll I do?
Number 5: What are you talking about?
Spaceboy: Huh?
Number 5: You are Spaceboy! My God...
Number 5: *swatting Spaceboy with a newspaper*
Number 5: Pull-yourself-together!
Guess who read tua
I had an epiphany
about Shrek 2.
And its groundbreaking character-development-foreshadowing.
We all remember ‘Accidentally in love’, the opening song, where our newlywed protagonists are having the time of their lives
There’s this lyric in the first verse:
How much longer will it take to cure this? Just to cure it, 'cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love) Makes me wanna turn around and face me
HMMMMM WHERE HAVE I HEARD THAT
OH I KNOW
Much later in the movie, when Shrek has turned human and is returning to the castle, determined to change for the woman he loves, and ‘Changes’ plays in the background
AND WE HEAR THIS:
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes Turn and face the strange
AND THIS (although this verse isn’t in the movie but it’s still IN THE SONG):
Every time I thought I'd got it made It seemed the taste was not so sweet So I turned myself to face me But I've never caught a glimpse
