they keep putting romance in everything. and it isn't even well written romance. they don't even write it well.

lord of the rings really was lightning in a bottle. it shouldnāt have worked but by god it did. peter jackson, who had no filmmaking education and was mostly known for making low budget splatter movies, had no business going out and changing the movie industry like that but he did. return of the king showed up at the oscars and became one of the most awarded movies of all time. to this day it holds the record for the highest clean sweep. hollywood will keep trying to recreate that magic with bigger budgets and high profile actors and they will keep failing. i look at the state of these blockbusters where everything is smoothed over by soulless cgi and actors are acting opposite tennis balls and they will never hold a candle to the pure heart and soul and craft of the lord of the rings. every single person involved in that project loved being part of it and it fucking shows. iām so thankful the stars aligned the way they did for these movies to happen like that.
Maladaptive deeply held belief: nobody could ever love me. Im going to die alone
Positive counterthought: maybe someone has an exceptionally rare form of mental illness that would cause them to make the grave mistake of wanting to fuck me
unfortunately i do believe that every time i delay watching a film itās because itās going to find me at the perfect time
oh your tall musically talented bestie is wearing a stupid pirate outfit in public and you're in shorts and dressed as a jock. great mystery files reference.
i love friendship and betrayal and timetravel and this is why ntbtstm is tailor made for me.
on the surface the movie and big time are the same (they explore a reality where the other is famous/gets recognition BECAUSE they separate from each other, and what's important is that they get recognition for the actual talent that irl matt and jay have (matt being a director and Jay being a musician and getting recognized for their talents in that). But because big time is made post the dirties fame we have kind of a "fix it" for the situation that happened irl (matt and jay stopped talking to each other and went their separate ways) so in a way the ntbts ep says "no I have my friend Jay and we made this movie together and we are nirvanna the band". While the movie aims to punish both of them for their actions (kind of you get what you wish for extreme edition with Jay leaving and getting famous but they found themselves in that situation bc Matt changes the future as if to show "you think you can be famous without me" (extra delicious because irl Jay is scoring Matt's movies so INDEED he wouldn't be famous without him at all), while not believing anything will change. What is also important in the movie is that they do ALL of that while Matt thinks that Jay is brainwashed/doesn't know him but they still manage to do the time machine plan. And Jay plans on staying within the famous timeline until he sees Matt sacrificing himself for him. He's changing his mind last second, and Matt is saving his life because he doesn't want his friend to be a murderer. So yeah he leaves the choice up to him bc that timeline's Matt dies anyway.
He also dies for real if we account for the post credit scene and that's due to Jay's actions. so yeah that isn't the same Matt Jay knew. And at the end of the day they choose each other to be losers together.

the end of the road š (2026)
Matt: This 16 millimetre footage that Jared shot around the city, in my opinion, is what ties the whole film together. Jared: And I can't believe it stayed. It's one of those things where when we were doing it, I was like, this is gonna be the most beautiful thing we could possibly shoot for this movie, and there's no way it's making it in. Jay: And it shows all, it's a foreshadowing of all the-- Matt: It's every single location that the-- Jay: --locations. It's beautiful. Matt: --movie takes place in if you watch it, almost in order, and, so, you're watching this and I--I think for us, we were trying to be like, okay, let's try to show what Toronto looks like... to an audience that is gonna be wondering, "well, why are they showing us this?" And, then, as you--because the film doesn't have establishing shots, right? Like, the way that Jared shoots is, he's always going into the close-up, which means we can never really show environments. And, because the city's so beautiful, it was like, oh, well, here's a way that we can actually show wides of every single place the film uh-uh, takes place in-- Jared: And, the philosophy changed because when we first were shooting it, we were like, "we should look for best friends", and I remember, uh, we were shooting all these duos, and then we realized-- Matt: You--they might've--they might've misheard you as saying "best frames". Jared: Best friends. Matt: Yeah, best friends. Jared: Best friends, like buddies, and then at a certain point we were watching the footage and went "no, it's the people". Matt: It's the people, yeah. Jared: It's the people, and it's the city, and just sh--it's just the people. Matt: Yeah. Jared: The true stars of the movie.

you did? a redraw of one of my first mattjay comics :3
movie is as good as when I first watched it even if I know all the behind the scenes and details and whatever, the 2008 sequence still amazes me. how did they do it (I know how did they do it but it's soo impressive). Truly a movie made for me. "It's been in cinemas and seen by more than you and your mutuals" It's a movie especially for me.
I love tumblr because somehow I can end up being mutuals with a celebrity (someone that wrote a fic that I loved)
