I REFUSE TO SINK

Hi! I'm a huge nerd. I love to draw. I'm always reading! I'm a huge fan of Sherlock, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Marvel, Star War, Star Trek, Percy Jackson, Hobbit and so many others! I'm also a Hufflepuff! :) Enjoy!

me talking to people

AU where instead of trying to cure her infertility Yennefer just goes around saving random people’s lives and invoking the law of surprise bcos she figures sooner or later it’ll net her a baby. she hasn’t got one yet but she has amassed about 2 dozen dogs so she’s doing pretty well for herself.

[penny-anna]

1) after a while her habit of swooping in at the last minute to save the day gets her a rep as a legit superhero. she’s like ‘no you don’t understand. I Am Not Nice. I’m doing this for very selfish reasons - stop praising me you don’t get it’

2) ‘I’m starting to think that destiny must be a real thing. there’s no other explanation for how many of my surprises are dogs. destiny is real and destiny wants me to have dogs for some reason.’

[problematicfan]

Okay but her doing this beFORE Geralt does it and when she finds out that he only had to invoke the law of surprise ONCE to get a baby she goes absolutely feral on him. Just dead silent, furious, finally starts pulling off her jewelry like, “bard, hold my earrings.”

[penny-anna]

Yennefer: actually can I trade your child surprise for some of my dog surprises

Geralt: um

Yennefer: how many dogs equals one child. how about 10? 10 dogs.

Geralt: I don’t think this is how the law of surprise works

[penny-anna]

Jaskier: Geralt’s child surprise is a princess so I’d say she’s worth at least 20 dogs

Yennefer: how about 15? I can do you 15. 

Geralt: no.

Jaskier: but Geralt…. so many puppies Geralt

Eddie Brock in Venom 

[buyakasha]

so many critics said he over-acted. that this movie didn’t deserve tom hardy’s level of acting. excuse you, maybe if more bad movies had people like tom going balls to the wall, they wouldn’t be bad movies

[star-shuttle-scout]

Tom was excellent in this movie for the mere fact that Eddie reacted like any sane human being would to the circumstances. With fear, panic, and disgust. Also, the movie itself was amazing considering they didn’t hypersexualize Eddie and try to make him all sexy when he’s dealing with an intergalactic being infiltrating his body and controlling him.

And yet they are still the sexiest pair of boyfriends ever 😍

I’m thinking about how we say “spill the tea” or just “tea” and how ppl used to say “spill the beans” like what if we just said “beans” when gossiping

[officiallybi-deactivated2022052]

“… and then she told me that he actually wasn’t at her house!”

“oh beans”

When someone sends out a group email that starts with "Just a friendly reminder" that really means they want to kill everyone in the office

not gonna risk scrolling past this

Before the computing era, ILM was the master of oil matte painting, making audiences believe that some of the sets in the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogy were real when they weren’t. They were the work of geniuses like Chris Evans, Michael Pangrazio, Frank Ordaz, Harrison Ellenshaw and Ralph McQuarrie ! Forever thank you, to their handmade art and the work of their colleagues, that made us dream of impossible worlds and fantastic places across Earth and the Universe.

There are more background paintings on this article, featuring comments by the masters/artists themselves ! 

Some of the following pieces were made by other artists 2:

exCUSE ME?!?!!??!??! TheYRE PAINTINGS?!??!!?!

[starsintheskysandsontheshore]

SHUT UP I thought they were miniatures!!!!

[sodeartomyheart]

It’s too beautiful. I could cry.

[firey-rising-demon-deactivated2]

I love this because I’ll be watching a movie and think “how did they do that? Is that a building they built for this movie? Was it there beforehand? Is it cardboard or CGI? Is that actually some place on Earth that they’re filming?” And the answer to all of these now is “nope, that’s a painting”. I can’t believe some of the most iconic, familiar shots were paintings!

That’s…kinda cool actually

[mousathe14]

Not just kinda, pretty dang cool

[questions-within-questions]

Honestly in terms of sets? Very little of the Prequels were CGI. Lucas actively attempted to cultivate the idea that he used CGI for everything because he wanted to be perceived as cutting edge. Mustufar? That’s an actual miniature set. The poured jello over the top of neon lights to make the lava. Naboo? Also used miniatures; they used salt instead of water to make the water falls look right at that scale.  

[scottandhiskind]

Okay, are we all just gonna ignore that set designers had to painstakingly cut, paint, and arrange 500,000 q-tips?!?

[dadmech]

The models for the clone facilities on Kamino are some of my faves from the PT, seen here being worked on by Adam Savage!

[nuttyrabbit]

Holy shit, that’s really cool

[mockingburb]

Psssst the set designer wouldn’t have assorted all those q-tips. The set designer came up with all the dimensions of how big that q-tip stadium needed to be, and made the blueprints.

The real creator would have been fabricators, set dressers, or a crying art production assistant who has been painting q-tips for two weeks straight and just really wants to go home.

Another tidbit of Mando lore;

Mandalorians quickly figured out that Jedi mostly view blaster fire as “fun lightsaber practice”.

During the Mando-Jedi wars, they dealt with this in characteristically practical fashion; they used slugthrowers (aka ordinary firearms) instead, because if a Jedi tries to deflect a regular bullet, what happens is “A bunch of bullet shrapnel to the Jedi’s face.”

[systlin]

Jedi or sith; deflects blaster fire

Mando’ade, racking a shotgun; deflect this you wizard bitch

[little-miss-rasputin-pageant]

everyone: you can’t beat the jedi. they’ll just deflect your blasters

the mandalorians:
