Crows don’t just remember the faces of the people who wronged them. They also remember those who were kind. They tell each other who to look after and who to watch out for.

SHADOW AND BONE (2021-)

shadow and bone and racism

shadow and bone just came out so i can now finally break my silence bc holy shit do they go ham on the racism and me being me, i just have to tell you all about it. possible spoilers and triggers for anti-asian racism and microaggressions.

to preface, i was very privileged to receive a screener for the entire first season last month and i was actually excited to watch it bc i have friends who love the books and the show piqued my interest since it was announced. and i also have to say that i never read the books and i probably never will ( tho i’ve been told i would like soc ) but i did like the show overall.

i think sab is a good adaptation and that the fans will like this show. i thoroughly enjoyed it and as someone who had very little to almost no knowledge about the books, i didn’t have trouble keeping up with the fantastical world.

however that doesn’t mean i can’t be critical of it.

i think the show can actually benefit from people being critical about it because so far, it feels like they took a very tone deaf direction and ran a marathon with it.

what i’m talking about, is alina starkov being half-shu.

#grishaverse #s&b #s&b spoilers #THIS !!!!!!!! THANK YOU #like it definitely stood out to me but i didnt really pay any mind to it bc i was like 1) wow okay we really reflecting how it is in 2021 rn #and 2) based off history im like okay yea war time amplifies racism as well but we definitely didnt get enough of that explanation/backstory #but as OP said #racism exists outside of these so called reasons and it didnt really dawn on me just how unnecessary it was #or at least to how extensive and aggressive it ended up being in the show #like yes i understand what the showrunners were trying to do with this whole racism narrative but yikes #it was bad esp with that line in ep3 #(but I mean apart from that i love this show v much)#this post does a good job lf articulating why its so oof and problematic as does a bunch of twitter threads

Thank you for saving me. You did the same for me. And if we stayed together, I doubt it would be the last time.

You know one of the things I absolutely love about the Shadow & Bone adaptation? We never see Kaz’s bare hands. In all of his outfits and all of his disguises, he wears his gloves. Even that scene at the beginning when he washes his hands, the camera pans upward right as he slips his gloves off so we never see the bare skin. It’s a brilliant and subtle cinematographic choice to hint at his trauma and shows the showrunners really put thought into translating these characters from the books to the screen.

I feel bad because as much as people rightfully give parts of Doctor Who shit it really does have some of the most profound quotes that I have ever come across.

Like when Doctor Who is bad it’s pretty fucking bad but man, when it’s good? It’s incredible.

Y’all can call me a basic bitch but the quote “I’ve never met anyone who wasn’t important.” basically sums up my entire ethos.

And sometimes, confusingly, it does both at the same time. Like for example the episode “Kill the Moon”, which I HATE, but which gave us the line, “Sometimes all the choices are bad ones, but you still have to choose.”

beth's little voice crack when she heard benny on the other line of the phone kills me ,, and that smile when the rest of them came on too, that's a girl who has been alone most of her life, and has gotten used to being alone and abandoned, who now realized that she isn't alone - she had alma, who did so much for her during the years they were together, she has jolene, who helped her get to russia, she has benny, who helped her train and train and was a worthy opponent, getting her to the top of her game, she has harry, who was one of her biggest supporters and helped her learn a great deal outside of chess, she has townes (whom this move redeemed a little in my eyes) who flew out to moscow to help support her and orchestrated the whole thing, she has matt and mike who were the first friends she made in the chess world

i just kinda melted, this is so wholesome

#tqg #WE !! LOVE !! FRIENDSHIPS !!#we love that even tho a few of them had a ~relationship~ w her they were still their own characters or grew into it #they stayed true to themselves #got past it and were still there for support bc FRIENDSHIP #the way benny stuck up for himself !!!!!!! and also harry !!!!!!! love that for them #but the love isnt lost bc again FRIENDSHIP!!!
