"it would be so good if it was good" will haunt you but "it's extremely good, except for the one or two parts which are so bad it's genuinely kind of insulting" will straight up drive you insane

[maxknightley]

one has you making posts like "okay but if the author UNDERSTOOD the POLITICAL IMPLICATIONS of the story they were telling, and leaned into it, it would actually be a really interesting exploration of..."

the other has you pacing your bedroom at one in the morning going "why. why would you ever in a million years do it like that. genuinely what possible thought process was involved. was the writer possessed by a fucking ghost or something."

funniest character dynamic in the world to me is when you have one guy knows hes gay but doesnt realise hes in love with his best friend and another guy who knows hes in love with his best friend but does not know hes gay

[abyssal-ilk]

you ever get so into the whole "it would have been good if it was good" thing that it gets kind of embarrassing. it would have been good if it was good but it's Not and in fact it's maybe worse than anything else but unfortunately. it still could have been good. if it was go

I respect jensen ackles less than I do an invertebrate inching about on the ocean floor, than a piece of lint peeled from the dryer filter, than a molecule of trash floating in space. he is no better than a dog & he will die like one

‘oh you're just disappointed you didn't get a fanfic moment' well yes! but i can handle that. to be a fsngirl is to be disappointed but sometimes....it almost feels purposeful.. the avoidance. canonically, the way they have written buck,and buck&eddie….based purely on canon, based purely on THEIR writing…we should have gotten an #emotional scene between them... or buckfocused worry.. canonically that would make narrative and character sense... and to avoid it. is to go off the natural road that's been laid down (BY THEM) and that detour feels off. audiences can tell... even if they can't always put their finger on it... so im not even talking about the buddieofitall..im saying this show now in so many instances chooses not to follow or doesn't know how to follow?) the narrative paths set by years of characterization and dynamic build up and that's why so many things feel slightly off... “he wouldn't fucking say that” well actually he would... and the fact that he didn't almost seems like a blatant avoidance...why?

[sunlightbuck]

also the thing is, when you stunt and stilt characters and storylines , when you forgo following the natural flow of where the story wants to take you, everything comes up flat. bc suddenly the plot (which is a vessel thru which your character is built bc we see them react and learn and grow and change and find themselves thru the situations they are placed in) becomes meaningless. So the character can’t make any real cohesive headway. It’s just a series of rooms in a fun house. nothing has anything to do with anything else. it’s just for a quick thrill. Then you’re out. And nothings changed….

When a book is bad, oh well, the failed artistry of one rube, maybe co-authors. But when a movie is bad, and you consider the military-like scale of production, man-hours, the money involved: you must understand, it feels like I’ve been at war with the world for 29 years.

[ourladyoflawrence]

okay. The thing about jumping the shark is that at least Happy Days did it. Like they planned the shark jump and they set their characters up to do it and they followed through. whack. Whatever.

dragging emotional storylines out forever and completely sapping the value and impact of everything that happens is so nothing. It’s nothing. will it matter at all if the follow through ever eventually happens? like what is that going to do for anyone then. you’ve lain waste to the landscape. you’ve proven it doesn’t matter. can someone teach me how to stop getting interested in chess games with dogs.

I have been LONGING for Eddie to walk Buck through field surgery *on Eddie* for my entire life, and now it feels within my grasp, and I'm so afraid I won't get my deepest wish.

[fraddit]

Eddie, struggling to talk through the pain and the blood loss. Buck, panicked but determined and locked in to save. his. guy. Eddie directing Buck. Buck with his fingers inside Eddie's body. DO YOU SEE THE VISION?!

okay but when eddie realizes and starts flirting with buck and we get the immovable object vs unstoppable force that would be buck desperately trying not to be in love with eddie vs eddie trying to get buck to fall in love with him ?? thats gonna be so much fun
