Goncharov,,, @tomatoclown - Tumblr Blog

There’s an emotion only unlocked when you live in a house with multiple stories. I call it “the stair emotion” and it’s when you realize the object you need is on the other side of yet another trip up and down those goddamn stairs. It’s the closest I get to transcending the desire for material goods. Maybe I don’t need that notebook. Maybe I don’t need anything.

#very good to shorten my screen time if the phone is on the other side #very bad to not drink water cause kitchen is too far #a blessing and a curse. a blurse if you will

Not to start discourse but I will be forever mad that every time I go into the Goncharov tag I see people complaining that they watched the movie expecting a soft queer romcom about pure cinnamon rolls and instead they got a complex and violent film about deeply flawed people where everyone dies.

By all means, engage in fandom however you choose. But don’t blame the source material for not being consistent with some random fanon on tumblr. Kinda wild to get mad that the movie about violent, morally dark grey criminals has violence, crime and moral greyness in it. You know? Also, imho given the time this movie was made, the queer coding was daring; this is NOT an example of queerbaiting.

#I miss gonchposting so much #been doing goncharov fanwork on my time but didn’t want to post cause feels like throwing them to the void lol #but maybe they deserve the void. maybe the void is hungry. much to think about #goncharov

I live a very balanced life of noticing things nobody else does and not noticing the things that literally everybody notices

Anyway here is my take:

I think trying to make a movie out of The Odyssey (not the story of Odysseus, but The Odyssey as in the poem) is a bit of a doomed endeavour as the structure of The Odyssey simply does not jive with the structure of the Hollywood movie

I think you COULD make a good movie out of the odyssey but would need to engage w the fact that it's a work which veers back and forth between fantasy and realism; that it's a story told out of chronogical order; and also that it is a Trickster Hero story first and foremost. It is perhaps best done as a comedy but with the occasional shocking swerve into graphic violence.

Here are my opinions:

The Odyssey should be a musical but ☝️only some of the time. When Odysseus is narrating? Musical. Penelope and Telemachus on Ithaca? 🙅‍♀️

Odysseus can break the fourth wall during the parts where he's narrating.

Movie opens with Odysseus inside Charybdis, whirling around and around clinging to a tiny raft and screaming. *Freeze frame* yeah, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got here.

In essence am I implying it should be tonally similar to the emperor's new groove but with ultra violence? Perhaps

#odysseus should be allowed to make direct eye contact with the camera #no other character should see the fourth wall but I’ll allow them to acknowledge him doing this and thinking he’s going crazy #not giving the gods a pass either. only odysseus #maybe hermes #ithaca should be a political suspense but telemachus has ☝️ one song and it will be in a sad 13yo playlist in seconds

"he would not fucking say that" but about injuries. he would not fucking recover that quickly. those scars would not fucking heal like that. he would not be fucking able bodied after that. he would not be fully lucid after that.
