made rocky pfps for discord :)

I saw backrooms last night and one thing that I actually didn't love in the movie that I've not come to really enjoy was how quickly clark goes kinda crazy in there.

I do still wish there was one or two more scenes included that I think would have made me enjoy it more on the first watch, but I think its really interesting how for most of the movie even though we know clark is a shitty husband and a shitty boss we don't know HOW shitty he actually is.

For majority of the movie its extremely plausible that clark is just a run of the mill douche bag. Sure he yelled at his therapist at the beginning but its therapy! Mary even tells him its the point of the exercise for him to get angry like that! No big deal! And yea he's rude to kat and bobby when filming the commercial but he's clearly frustrated about business and that he just broke a chair with his ass in a silly pirate costume. That scenes might even feel relatable for many people in the audience with shitty jobs.

And then when he's exploring the backrooms for the first time he almost has this childlike wonder about the place. Where most people would reasonably just not go back in he's getting so much delight from finding something he thinks is pretty important and using his architect knowledge to map the place out. Yea he's reckless with Kat and Bobbies lives but even that feels like Clark is just So! Excited! To Explore!

And then hes strangling Mary. And then he has her tied to a chair. A chair that's in his fake family doll house of these backroom still-life's, with his sort of ex wife standing at attention in the corner and these people he seemingly doesn't know from his real life that he's taken as friends? New family members? Whatever he is using them as stand in's for it is definitely not whatever they were originally "made for" in the backrooms.

I think it serves as such an ice bucket drop on the audience of how horrible Clark really is as a person. No he probably wasn't tying his ex wife up outside of the backrooms or anything like that, but he almost certainly commanded their home like she was. Clark is fundamentally a broken man in someway who's desperate to feel normal? In control? Powerful? A mix of all three and more? Clark is given the tools to create those feelings for himself though by the backrooms and literally JUMPS at the opportunity. At first I thought there had to have been a time skip before this scene that I missed but no, Clark literally turns to this new lifestyle in the backrooms the second he meets his own backrooms memory.

TLDR: Clark is every man ever who refuses to take accountability for their actions and resort to weird justifications and violence.

don’t ever put him in a situation

i actually refuse to believe grace gets to erid and lives a normal human life span, like that’s like 5 minutes for rocky that’s not even as long as you’d own a cat

no i’ve decided that eridians are FANTASTIC at medicine, like centuries ahead of human medicine, and that makes it pretty easy for them to fix grace up so he can live the same life span as a eridian

#like rocky has been in space longer than grace has been alive i refuse to accept that grace gets to erid at like 40 or whatever it is #and then dies in a normal timespan #i just won’t accept it #project hail mary #rocky phm #rocky project hail mary #ryland phm #ryland grace #ryland grace phm #ryland grace project hail mary #ryland project hail mary #ryland and rocky #grace and rocky #eridians phm #phm movie #grace phm #grace project hail mary #phm headcanons

the obligatory trolley problem post

yall think Grace ever got zoochosis. I’m imagining him walking in circles counting exactly how many steps it takes to go around the entire perimeter of his Dome ten times over while staring into the middle distance. meanwhile Rocky is shaking Adrian’s shoulders (?) going Honey We Have To Add Enrichment To His Enclosure. Adrian His Squishy Human Brain Is Melting. Do We Have Any Space Middle Schoolers To Throw At Him.

I see so many posts like “imagine being adrian and” and i haven’t seen ONE PERSON SAY imagine you’re adrian and your husband goes on a mission to save the world and comes back 50ish earth years later with an alien and they saved the world. Your husband tells you all about this planet they went to that had the microorganisms needed to save the world. And your husband named it after you. Oh my god that’s- oh. Oh you named it after what the alien called me? Ok. I guess. Still sweet, i wasn’t involved and you weren’t sure you were ever gonna see me again so i guess- the fuck do you mean THE ALIEN NAMED IT AFTER ME. IT WASN’T EVEN YOUR IDEA? YOU WANTED TO GO WITH MEDIUM ROUGH TEXTURE CIRCLE PLANET??? THE ALIEN WAS THE ONE WHO THOUGHT OF NAMING IT AFTER ME?????

Edit: this was a joke. I made this to be funny. I have read the book. Four times as of adding this. I simply forgot it was very slightly different in the book. This is not the place to be having discussions about how infantilizing the movie may or may not be, i am not even gonna give my own take on that here. The attention this is getting is getting exhausting and every day i get closer to taking it down. It is just a joke. I do not need to be told to read the book, i do not want my little shitpost turned into some philosophical discussion. I am so sick and tired of this damn post

#the question is would most other euridians do the same thing or is rocky just like that #project hail mary

and if i got too woke and said the way the writers have treated dr mohan (one of the only doctors we see putting real care into listening to patients, and the first doctor we see fight to advocate for a disabled patient) is indicative of how they feel about disabled people and the care they deserve what then 🧐

The twink is evolving

the way people are attacking anyone who has criticism of the pitt is making me not want to post on here

just cause someone didn’t like how something was handled or didn’t like the shift in how characters were handled this season doesn’t mean they didn’t watch the show or they’re fucking dumb or they should just stop watching

it just means they have a different opinion than you

not even to mention how a very normal part of interacting with a fandom is criticizing the piece of media

#the pitt #the pitt hbo #the pitt show #the pitt season 2 #the pitt season two #the pitt s2 #dr robby #dennis whitaker #dr mel king #dr robinavitch #finding the courage to post more of my opinions lmfaoo #courage is a joke ts isn’t that serious lmfaoo

can someone with a better grasp on medical language and people’s tone tell me if the woman who tells robby “do no harm” when he’s asking about al hashimi tell me if she means 1. do no harm to your fellow attending by getting her fired or 2. do no harm you gotta tell cause she might do harm

#the pitt #the pitt hbo #the pitt show #the pitt season 2 #the pitt season two #the pitt s2 #either makes sense to me but i know theres stricter rules about the do no harm oath than i know #dr robby #the pitt finale #the pitt spoilers

it’s kinda insane we spent the whole season listening to people justify none of the other characters having real arcs this season with “well it’s about robby” and then they didn’t even finish that story arc

#like no way the whole thing was about robby’s potential suicide and we don’t even see him leave for the night #season one’s gonna open up with him and that fucking baby #papa robby #the pitt #the pitt hbo #the pitt show #the pitt season 2 #the pitt season two #the pitt s2 #michael robby robinavitch #michael robinavitch #dr robinavitch #dr robby #the pitt finale
