Tags: so, here we are, 2359, forever beyond its reach, alexandraerin, i do my best these days to keep my twitter and tumblr worlds separate, b/c sometimes I need to see what the horse is doing in the hospital, but other times i very much need landscapes and dresses and birds and sailboats, to remind me that in the end, the shadow is only a small and passing thing, and there is light and high beauty, .

Tags: so, you know, here we are, the county is being abundantly cautious, and since people were killed in mudslides during the last storm, they’re now saying, all you all need to evacuate, knowing full well that many people wont, we’re lucky to be able to afford it, a little luxury vacation, with our pets, in a hotel on the other side of town, from our house, 🤔.

Tags: here we are, fun fact: that ring close-up from the Pass of Caradhras sequence, is of a stunt ring, , you see one of the props people polishing it, in one of the bts features, we've been rewatching the movies recently, after a year or two of letting them lie fallow, and it's kind of amazing to realize, how much detail we obsessives processed at the time, b/c pj & co made so much of it available, the movies were so fandom-friendly, and the net was newly good at eliminating all distance between us, and well.

“These are, to put it mildly, not happy times. I don’t know of anyone who is expecting to enjoy a truly happy Thanksgiving tomorrow, however much many of us have to be thankful for at the personal dimension of our lives. But our country is facing the most profound internal challenge since 1860. An unscrupulous president like Donald Trump, “advised” by Steve Bannon, might well precipitate a war in order to gin up a mood of “national unity” and support for the strong-man Chief Executive and Commander in Chief. Trump wagged all sorts of dogs in his relentless path to the nomination and the White House. Anyone who believes him incapable of moving to the next level has no understanding of the limitless narcissism and opportunism that is the only constant in his 70 years of exploiting those he sees as weak and vulnerable.”

Tags: politics, here we are, 2359, redacted, wag the dog, I would really love to find a flaw in this reasoning, also a pony, and a minibike, and yet, at midnight on thanksgiving, I give thanks for the time that is ending, and look ahead to the time that's good again, but that part in the middle tho.

#i remember the first time i saw this shot#and i groaned internally#and thought if he gets the heroic close up and she doesn’t i will find out where george miller lives and punch him on the nose#and then she gets the heroic close up shot which is him literally looking up at her#actually so many moments in this movie where it’s like you thought i was gonna surrender to that sexist trope BUT I DIDN’T#bonus points for making him pretty and her bloodied#a+++#mad max fury road#tagline: let’s invert everything!#(even sand and water omg don’t start me on that) (ecouter-bien)
This moment not only refuses to give him the hero shot – this is him giving that shot away with his flick of his eyes to Furiosa. That look to her …it’s not pride in her, that would be a touch condescending wouldn’t it – it’s…more like an acknowledgment that this is her place, her moment, her creation. The success of this ‘free the citadel’ mission didn’t hinge on him – he could have died and they would still have succeeded. It hinged on her – her actions, her being there and her long history of forging relationships there makes or breaks this moment.
This is Furiosa’s victory, and he is content.
Once again, Max has zero investemnt in dominance – a character trait constant throughout the movie.

Tags: well, here we are, fury road, 100% yes with this analysis, the way the movie inverted/subverted trope-y action-movie expectations, I spent that whole first viewing off-balance, I basically surrendered about 30 seconds in, and just watched the rest of the way with my mouth hanging open, and came out saying, what WAS that?, and.

Tags: well, irene choi, i ship it film, maximum gif density, gifs, my gifs, i think this must have been giffed already, but I couldn't find it, and I love this part so much, and also, i needed the last one for a reaction gif, which I realize had already been giffed from the trailer, but i wanted a version that was a little smoother, and so, here we are.
