DID THE WRITERS REALLY MAKE GENE, WHO WAS AN ABSENTEE PARENT TO HIS ONLY SON, RE-ENTER HIS SON’S LIFE ONLY TO ENDANGER HIS FAMILY AND EVENTUALLY SHOOT HIM?!?? 😭

i love how richie called out carmy’s similarities to donna & he responds by throwing a fit just like hers in s2e6 😭
also it’s such an easy thing for them to
do but i’m such a sucker for simple cinematography…like the freezer door separating them during their argument
is classic
@RaquelWillis_
and idk why people are acting like using the slur makes his message more impactful…like mariah carey wrote these lyrics in 1995 without using slurs and personally i found it more empowering (albeit it’s not perfect, but still better imo)

there was literally an entire episode where jessica tricked reese & malcolm into thinking the other brother was gay, so they were trying to be respectful of each other at mamma mia 😭
this reminds me of a scene from grand army where joey is discussing the male gaze & how straight men sexualize & glamorize the pain of women through media such as porn, to the point where women’s pleasure during sex is never prioritized & even leads to more extreme cases like SA
WTAF THIS IS ACTUALLY SO INSANE??!!?!?! AND THE CROSSWALK TIMER COUNTING DOWN?!??? AND DOM’S BLOODIED FACE AT THE END???!? HOLY FVCKING SH!T I WAS P!SSING MY PANTS DURING THIS ENTIRE SEQUENCE
have you ever watched a comfort movie so many times that you can recite literally every single line of dialogue in the exact same tone & cadence as the actors as it’s being said? and you can picture all their mannerisms too so you could just act out the whole movie without it on?
ik barry very subtlety satirized police brutality earlier this season, so i’m not surprised that the writers would also take a shot at how unrestrictive gun laws are in this country
the fact that barry very easily purchased & carried out a gun in a paper bag is very telling 😭
honestly i didn’t even think about it like this…like connor finally giving up his spot in the election to mencken was his way of finally letting go of his desire for validation from logan
DARLENE IS HIS SISTER??? HE KISSED HIS SISTER??!? AND MR. ROBOT IS HIS FVCKING FATHER??!!?! holy fvcking sh!t this plot twist is just as insane as the one in s1 of the good place 😭
imma need tv show writers to stop making “jokes” like this…like idk if they thought these were quirky or “edgy” or self-aware or on-the-nose, but really they’re just gross & creepy tbh
🚨| BREAKING NEWS: Following groundhog Punxsutawney Phil’s prediction yesterday of an early spring, Ireland native Ayo Edebiri officially kicks off the 2024 St. Patrick’s Day celebrations as a leprechaun 🇮🇪🍀
this scene was such a cathartic & satisfying resolution to how s1e7 ended with how healthily syd, carm & tina were able to resolve their stress this time around 🥹
THE BARRY WRITERS ARE SO SICK FOR MAKING US THINK THAT HANK SAVED CRISTOBAL FROM DYING IN THE QUICKSAND ONLY FOR THEM TO K!LL HIM OFF RIGHT AFTER CRISTOBAL DUMPED HANK 😭

okay so i finished the first 3 eps of s4 & so far it has been WILD with the whole post-5/9 world…angela’s death seemed so sudden & outta nowhere that it was definitely obvious that her actress probably wanted outta the show, but i thought the writers handled her exit well
wait omg…the 12 “jurors” were represented by marie, blanca gomez, bill oakley, the 7 members of opposing counsel, the judge, and kim wexler…
so kim was the only “juror” he needed to believe in him 😭😭😭
honestly what i really appreciate about kelly clarkson doing all these covers and performances is that they’re diversifying my musical tastes, and they’re getting me into artists’ discographies that i would’ve never thought at all about getting into
so i just watched the final season of sex education & ofc as expected it was a total trainwreck, but at least we got some great music for the soundtrack, dan levy & this impeccably flawless hermione granger impression from emma mackey 🫶
i wonder if greg being a kiss ass might ACTUALLY pay off in next week’s episode of succession
like what if matsson decides to betray shiv by making greg the american ceo & then greg mercilessly fires tom after enduring all of the abvse he faced for the past four seasons 💀
the way i was scrolling through the videos in my camera roll to clear up my storage & found this shiv roy edit that i completely forgot about that i made back in may 😭
so i (finally) watched everything everywhere all at once & this might be actually one of my favorite films i’ve seen in forever
like i don’t wanna be dramatic but i loved almost every aspect of this film from the story to the technical elements to the acting, etc.
all of these moments from s1 where barry was daydreaming about a future with sally are completely recontextualized now for me…like were all of these dream sequences really just glimpses into the future 😭
this is so random but i feel lucifer might’ve been the worst show i’ve ever seen? like literally every episode of that show made me either irrationally angry or frustrated & since 2021 i still refuse to watch the final season bc of how traumatizing that experience was for me 😭

it’s called “Prom Queen” from the album “Someone’s Ugly Daughter” by the band “Chick”, which was revealed to be Mariah Carey’s secret project in 2020. Since the album hasn’t been released to streaming services, you can listen to the whole album here:
before i get into s4e7, i just wanna say that i’m very glad the writers made the decision to put this scene in the prior episode bc even tho elliot is a survivor, he’s also done a lot of harm in the world that isn’t excusable & doesn’t deserve any sympathy from the viewer at all
one of the main reasons why i’m really excited for tomorrow’s succession ep is bc i feel like this will be the first time we see everyone reveal their true intentions & motivations now that logan isn’t there to have his ass kissed
no bc this is such a widespread problem in hollywood on even a broader scale like with the spanish in breaking bad/better call saul, the xhosa in black panther, the arabic in the dune movies, the russian in john wick, literally any movie with a german/dutch/french character, etc.
okay so i’ve made it to s2e13 of abbott elementary & so far it’s my favorite episode of the show…ava’s marketing tactics were so fvcking funny & i literally laughed out loud when malika fell down to try & get jacob to buy a candy bar 😭
how could you guys do this to me? i just watched s4e7 of mr. robot & i hate every single one of you for keeping this crucial piece of information from me…i will never be able to forgive any of you ever
so i finished s2e7 of mr. robot & i was genuinely so thrown by the twist that elliot was in prison for this entire season…like sure it was weird that he would only hang out with leon or at his mom’s repeatedly, but elliot was always weird so i just assumed that was his normal 😭
i just wanna know what my teenage self was thinking for romanticizing my 20s 😭 like i’m single, broke, jobless, still living with my parents, still stressed about grades & my career & my future in general, and binging shows since i’m too broke to go to the theater too frequently
idgaf how petty or evil whiterose is, she’s easily one of my favorite characters already purely off the way bd wong embodies her gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss attitude so flawlessly & effortlessly delivers all of the instantly iconic & memorable lines
i’m debating whether or not i should take a break from twitter tbh…i’ve just gotten so busy with my classes that i don’t have the time to hyperanalyze film & tv like i used to, and i’m just so tired of constantly seeing & dealing with extremely online twitter drama
mr. robot taking control over elliot during the church group meeting was definitely chicanery-level deranged, but honestly he was so based for going off after they tried to use christianity to console a racist man for committing a hate crime
elliot’s never been more relatable & ik this is supposed to be a super serious scene about how lonely elliot feels after losing shayla & growing distant from angela, darlene & mr. robot, but those emoji movie looking helmets are taking me tf out
omg wait…so howard and lalo represented the two different sides of jimmy, the by-the-books lawyer & the clever criminal, so howard’s death metaphorically represented the death of jimmy’s good side???? 😭
how funny would it be if jiminez turns out to be the real winner of the election? without mencken, matsson can drop tom from the american ceo position & jiminez will send the doj after him, which means that greg & shiv are also royally fvcked through their association with tom
it’s actually crazy how rapidly technology advances nowadays bc this 2016 apple mute icon looks so very dated already 😭 this was still definitely a cool visual choice tho & gives the show that retro appeal
one of the many reasons i prefer better call saul over breaking bad is because, somehow, the writers were able to incorporate humor in a scene as tense as this 😭😭😭
this was the cruelest scene in the whole show so far…the end of s2 gave us a glimmer of hope that they could survive, but we don’t get to see them for 6 more episodes & when they finally do come back, they were used for a comedic bit with the car just to d!e begging for mercy?
merry christmas y’all!!! please stay safe & positive, especially to those who are spending this day alone…i’m sending love to all of you, and my dms are also open if you need to talk ❤️
so my friend & i watched cocaine bear earlier today and i thought it was so funny…like it was even funnier than beast was last year
it’s definitely a half-baked idea, but i liked that it was fun & enjoyable & never took itself too seriously as a horror movie
