2018 is the year we all learn to make pacts with demons
in 2018 we let the seals slip away and grasp the clawed hand of the Abyss! reach into the void between worlds and pull out a friend! pact yourself, body and soul, to entities coursing with infernal energy!!
Reach into your local hellish rift and you will find a friend and boy
One of my least favorite shots in the entire Harry Potter franchise is the one where Voldemort is leaning over Dumbledore’s corpse to take the Elder wand.
I hate it so much. What is the rest of his body doing? It’s implied that he’s planking ominously in the air. Some people might say ‘oh this is homoerotic’ but PLANKING OMINOUSLY IN THE AIR is both unsexy and too ridiculous to be properly evil. I hate this shot and I hate that it was echoed in The Dark Tower movie with Walter and Roland.
Today’s aesthetic: 19th Century literature where the nominal protagonist doesn’t even show up until you’re 20 000 words in.
You can say Les Misérables
No, I can’t; Valjean doesn’t show up in Les Misérables until thirty thousand words in. Even by the standards of its time, Les Mis is 50% more insufferable than average!
jean valjeans not even the main character… like how many words in do those Parisian Sewers come in?
