If you were saying they were kind of a nonentity and hard to feel any meaningful emotions. Killing civilians = bad and peasants = sucky life under nobles, sure, but they did not do much to establish any of the 'Small Folk' (Hot Pie? Gendry before quickly revealed as Robert's bastard?) unless they were about to be raped and killed to show war is bad.

But vile and despicable? Because they cheered for Ned's death? When what most people were told was that he conspired against Robert and was a traitor?

When, during the riots caused by people literally starving to death, some men took advantage to attack and rape nobles? Do you think they wouldn't take advantage to attack the lowborn women too? As we saw in Dany's attack on Kimg's Landing, apparently everyone is quite willing to take a break to get a rape in.

That they jeered at Cersei during her walk of shame? Who they probably still hated for the whole starvation thing, even if she wasn't charged with adultery and incest.

I just ended up mocking the attack and finale with the person I was watching the show with, because I didn't feel much beyond irritation and disappointment.

Are we talking more Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels or more Gosford Park?

Re: Good Omens fans - who was/is your ideal casting for Crowley and Aziraphale?

An American version of Good Omens would actually whip ass

But they think of themselves as kids, which is why they attack anyone who makes anything higher than PG rated and puts it where their delicate children's eyes can potentially see it.

It's wild. When I was that age everyone was overjoyed to finally be old enough to not have to lie about being over 18 in order to read porn on adult fanfiction sites.

wow, the "ad" on the page I picked after a google search was...O.o.

Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels.

Ugh

Media News Thread

Don't think mine's triggery in and of itself, but just in case...

More Edwardian espionage movies just across the board, as well

So a whole bunch of Max Landis' (alleged) victims have finally gotten together to corroborate the long-time rumors about him being an abusive piece of shit. The Daily Beast has a long AF article on it, if anybody is interested. Just reading it is a head-trip and a half (and probably triggery af for those who are triggered by such things).

Oh, I was just trying to be funny with the 'sexy' part. But that is, more or less, a lot of the point of the original Marple stories - Marple is written off as a silly old lady. Also a plot point in the Dorothy Sayers Wimsey novels - Wimsey at one point sets up essentially a detective agency mostly consisting of older women, run by Miss Climpson, a spinster who's one of the best characters in the whole series, precisely because she's good at inveigling gossip and not being noticed.

Fuck that piece of shit.

Nice! I love good old-fashioned crime movies (British or not).

Kind of curious what you were inspired by now... did you ever watch The Long Good Friday?

(Anonymous) 2019-06-19 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
That's one of the better ones...

Oh, Lord, I didn't even know. Is there a long German word where you try to come up with something absurd to make fun of reality and it already exists in real life? There should be.

Basically modern Guy Ritchie movies. There's a ton I haven't seen.

I guess we could sprinkle a bit of Attack The Block but that's sci-fi/crime. Long Good Friday looks interesting, I wonder if I can rent it from the library.

For anyone wondering, the link is to "Daenerys Roman Holiday meme."

I always think well of an author who manages to say nice things about truly shit art.

I'm not an artist and can basically only do manips, and I do respect bad artists for trying and try to see the charm in all sincerely effortful art, but I also feel especially bad for people who get paired with someone who didn't even try.
