GRABBING YOU LOVINGLY @squidling2005 YOU AND YOUR TAGS! So I don’t think Kirby would study the Semibots in the same way he studies lethal company fauna (I wonder though if like, post apocalyptic species would count as “aliens”, I think he’d find the repo monsters interesting because he wants to be the biggest know-it-all in the room at all times, but idk the source of these creatures yet so if they aren’t technically aliens he will “uhm actually! 🤓☝️” people about them) I do think however Kirby would like the semibots anyway! As kinda stupid the whole bunch of them are, they are earnest and have a penchant for getting into and out of insane situations similarly to himself. He’d want to get one home somehow and get a camera attached to it, use it to help with his research by throwing it directly at the danger like “Have fun :D!!”

Juno is happy to have new playmates :]

I decided to watch all the DC animated movies and rank + review them! The most recent one I watched was Justice League Throne of Atlantis. Here’s my notes on it!

(SPOILER WARNING!!!)

My thoughts:

Honestly the movie was okay, it’s decent but it’s not really all that. DC definitely has better movies out there. I think my favorite thing about this particular series is the dynamic between Batman and Green Lantern. This says a lot because I actually hate Green Lantern after being subjected to Green Lantern First Flight and Green Lantern Emerald Knight. I also really liked the characterization of Cyborg. Shockingly enough, in my honest opinion, the weakest character in Throne of Atlantis WAS Aquaman. They didn’t flesh him out enough for me to really care. I think a big thing I’ve noticed with DC is they tend to either rush straight into action with the movie slowing down halfway through, or the first half of the movie is slow and then it picks up. They haven’t found a good middle ground but you could probably blame the pacing on how short these movies are. This all being said, it’s not a bad movie! I wasn’t sitting there thinking to myself “God can this movie finish already?” the way I was during the Green Lantern movies.

My notes and my current ranking!

Follow me on Letterboxd @quinny42069!

I’ll probably only post them as I watch them because if I’m being completely honest, I don’t remember enough about a lot of them to post about because I watched a lot of them over the Summer. But if there is a specific one anyone wants me to go over, then just let me know and I’ll try and find a recap to jog my memory a bit! I’ll also try to post about the ones I remember the most! I do have notes on all of them but they’re more reactions to the movie rather than on the quality.

the counterpart of “west coast best coast” in my mind has always been “east coast weast coast”. which means absolutely nothing i just think about it every time i hear the original phrase

confirmed yapper by the tumblr gods

no thoughts behind my eyes just moments in s1 where Will let's himself get close to Hannibal on his own but immediately backs off the moment Hannibal looks at him

kinda random rambling

I like that he didn't immediately back off after Hannibal offered another theory, instead backing off after looking at him. It's like he saw understanding in that moment and got confirmation of it by looking at him, like they saw eachother for a moment; you kinda think like me.

There's this want to find yourself in another person, wanting understanding/someone to relate to—but it's also scary seeing that part of yourself in another person when it already scares you just seeing it in yourself. For the same reason you don't want people getting too close to you, you now don't wanna get too close to them.

They say that eyes are gateways into the soul, that looking into the eyes of another will let you see what they're really thinking. By actually making that eye contact, it's like you're offering them inside your head. Throughout the show "getting too close" referred to losing himself in someone else's head, being stuck seeing through their eyes—if looking into another person's eyes meant getting in their head and them getting in yours and you both shared similar thoughts, would you ever be able to know for certain that you got out?

I'm so bad at explaining my thoughts it makes more sense in my head so I hope it's at least. Slightly understandable

Also this scene in fromage where Will attempts to check Hannibal's injuries but immediately looks away upon Hannibal looking back at him. I like that he doesn't look directly at him whilst expressing his guilt, saying he feels as if he's dragged Hannibal into his world, almost like he doesn't want him to see any more—he's already been far enough in. He doesn't want him to get too close.

I'm probably looking too into it but . we love overanalyzing
