Leading Gale-Hansen-enthusiasts Ashley and Chloe discuss two of Mr. Hansen's action films from the early 90s. Neither of them make any sense, but at least Gale looks damn good in those jeans. Shawty may have had the apple bottom jeans, but Gale had the Dad jeans and a cute ass.
dps 2 scripts update: bitch be trying. bitch is me.
in the meanwhile, i want to open up a tag list for this series, so pls lmk if you would like to be tagged when i upload a new script!
also i’ll probably rb some ask games here in a bit so if you have questions or are curious about anything, i’d really like to interact with people and make it a community thing like the original posts from 2021 or w/e
cold tagging my friends and people who seemed interested in hopes they rb lol (i don’t normally do this bc i know it’s weird to get randomly tagged so if you hate it, dw it won’t happen again):
The double standards in this fandom are crazy. Like, the same people parading themselves as the wise elders of the community actively defending the use of N*wanda and defending the objectively Creepy and Bad actions of Knox in the movie. Odd hills to die on. Maybe examine your own behaviour?
Starting this Friday, August 1st 2025, the first episode of our Podcast will be available for any listening ears who care to hear us yap!
Click below to discover more information.
We are four friends, connected by the love of Dead Poets Society (1989), and are watching movies exclusively (almost) from the main cast's filmographies. Sometimes we watch other movies too, it just depends on the day. After some good and some bad, we’ve decided to record us discussing each of these films and either convince you or warn you when it comes to watching. Follow along as we (Ashley @ash5monster01, Bea @toindeedbe, Chloe @octaviasdread, and Sunny @theluminoussunflower) desperately try to explain the plots of some of the most random movies you have ever seen.
Four friends, two time zones, obsession with an 80s movie, and a dream.

Hello! Welcome to the After Dark Film Society. We are four friends, connected by the love of Dead Poets Society (1989), and are watching mov
As a note, the name After Dark is the name of the Discord server we all met in, created for people over the age of 18. That doesn't necessarily mean this podcast is exclusively for adults, nor is it dedicated to adult topics. Simply, we are adults and we do use explicit language and discuss various themes. We may discuss or explore adult topics as they come up.
Coming soon! In our first episode, leading hosts Sunny and Bea discuss two Josh Charles films where a not insignificant amount of screen time is dedicated to him having sex: Threesome (1994) and Pie in the Sky (1995). Good for him! He’s earned a solid fuck after sexually harassing someone in Dead Poets Society for 2 uninterrupted hours.
if you ever wonder why your fandom is "dying" it's genuinely because people aren't talking to one another or interacting with people who aren't just their mutuals. i know i'm not perfect at this either, but as a writer, it is genuinely discouraging when i don't get any meaningful interaction from people within a fandom. and don't tell me "just write for yourself! do what makes you happy!" what makes me happy is putting time and effort into something i care about and people telling me it was worth it. you'd never tell an accountant to just do taxes for fun. you'd never tell a scientist to do studies but never get published. you'd never tell a doctor to not worry if they have no recurring patients. so don't tell artists / writers / creators that they shouldn't care if they don't have an audience. it's fine if they don't care about that, but i do. i do care about people knowing that i exist.
Sunny is one of the greatest writers (and people) I know— I know we both feel the same way when I beg of you to please!!! Interact!! With!!! Artists!!!
It’s not greedy to say that as writers (or artists in general) we thrive on feedback! We don’t know how people feel about our work if they don’t tell us. It’s so easy to be discouraged when your work sits there dormant. It’s so easy to assume that it’s Bad because people aren’t interacting with it in a meaningful way. Like yes, all interaction is good interaction, but there’s so much room for interpretation if it’s incredibly vague!!
If you like something, let the creator know! That way we can improve and keep giving you all the lovely content you want!
a really dramatic post about how i haven't been posting fanfiction lol
there isn't any big reason, just that since i finished my degree i've been pretty depressed and job hunting which makes me more depressed and i've had a hard time finding inspiration for writing all together if i'm honest and when i do find it, it kinda just fades off, no matter how often i try to get myself to work on it.
so what i'm going to do instead is post the stuff i have been writing, the unfinished drafts where there are random [stuff happens here] gaps. and hopefully if you all see them, i can get some super sexy feedback from y'all, which you are not obligated to do by any means <3
these are the google docs. if you would like to comment on them, please don't be afraid to. i'm literally on my hands and knees begging for you to point out what you like / don't like. if you want to leave an ask instead of commenting on the doc, that's great. i genuinely don't care, but i can't let these just sit in my google drive any more and i've forced my friends to look at all of them repeatedly.
maybe with that feedback, i can finally finish what i started and post them, then i can move on to other stuff. i might update this later on with future wips if this proves to be an effective strategy.
this is a mitts fic somewhat related to the fics i wrote about them before (frog and birds, i think they're called)
Pitts told his grandparents he didn’t get into Harvard, which was a lie. But if he told them he had, they would have forced him to go there.
this is a second chapter to videos, it's from todd's perspective after the break up
The night Todd left, he went to the only person in the city he trusted. He walked through cold New York City, letting his tears and snot fre
i know people liked tragedy, so here was the outline i made for chapter 4. unfortunately, i don't forsee ever finishing that fic bc i've changed my mind A LOT about it, but who knows.
Beatrice is LIVING IT UP She has a house! She’s married! And she wants a BABY! And NOW! Stephen tells her to be patient… please, otherwise h
last and certainly not least: this bitch
it's been 84 years and i am finally ready to share it, and it's not even finished. but from the three (3) people who have read it, they say it's actually okay.

The fact that gale hansen is the oldest in the dps cast and he still talks so fondly and openly about his support for the queer community and how the community is affected by dps as well as his character in the film genuinely warms my heart
It’s nice to know an older person has our backs in all of this cause nowadays there’s very few
i just wanted to let u know how much i love and appreciate ur fics :) true blue is genuinely one of my fav fics i have ever read. ur such a talented writer and it is such a gift to get to read even a fraction of ur writing! u bring so much life to every character and there is so much care in each word
best of wishes & happy new year!
<3
This is such a sweet message, thank you so much!! I’m glad you like my writing, I’ve been hesitant to post my own creations for a long time :’)
I wish you the happiest of new years to you and yours 💛
