In hindsight, very odd to make a zionist and a palestinian man a couple in tvd

Are you talking about Bonnie and Enzo? Cos I haven't seen any evidence of Kat being a zionisy

Also, I noticed the reoccurring theme of connection in Hannibal season one. Not only with the serial killers the FBI catch, but with the main characters too. Jack Crawford and his wife, Alana and Abigail and Will, Abigail and her father. Will in particular is someone who simultaneously has no connection with anyone (lack of concept with family, money issues, constantly travelling in childhood, no friends) and too much connection (with serial killers)

          I find myself disliking when people take sides between Voyter and Maleski, or when people spend too much time focusing on whether she did it or not. The whole point of the film is that there's no black and white — no definitive answer that explains everything — with a particular analysis of gender dynamics and how it's filtered through other people's perspectives, particularly within the court of law and the court of public opinion.  
          
          The answer lies within the shades of grey. Two things can be simultaneously true. As well, two things can certainly be wrong.

[TBOSAS spoilers] 
          
          I always wonder what conversation Tigris and Sejanus had while waiting for Coriolanus to wake up in the hospital. They both held the same belief that district people deserved to be treated equally, both were kind despite the struggles they faced from Capitol society. Both wanted to see the good in Coriolanus. 
          
          I also wonder what Lucy Gray was thinking when she saw Sejanus plead to Coriolanus at his execution, only knowing that Sejanus knew Coriolanus and wanted to take District 12 people to someplace better -- only for him to be at the hanging tree when the only people who knew was Spruce and Snow. 
          
          I don't like the victimization people offer to Coriolanus just because Highbottom had a problem with him; that Casca's treatment of him made him a self-fulfilling prophecy. Coriolanus had multiple chances to be good, even if it was shallow and opportunistic. But he simply chose his pride over and over again.

In addition and agreement to everything you said above: For me, he never receives the necessary character moments to be considered anything but self-interested and the film is moreso what level of depravity one can convince oneself of as being righteous. The irony of people papering over Corio as being sympathetic is, in itself, the whole point. Corio is convinced of his sympathetic role and is wholly invested in his POV. He doesn’t love Lucy. He doesn’t think of Sejanus as family. It’s all about him. 
            
            It’s most pronounced in the fact we don’t have a strong Lucy POV in the film except when she is Reaped. The moment she comes into his orbit, everything becomes filtered through his POV. It feels quite smart and i want more character studies in this genre but i also don’t because film study isn’t mandatory in the education system lmao. Either way, L for Corio supporters tbh

          I see a lot of people say that Saltburn has no substance but I disagree. I think the problem with Saltburn is that it's derivative, specifically of Talented Mr Ripley. It's just that book but British, and unfortunately because of it, the movie has no uniqueness that spins something new about the trope, nor does it do the in depth critique about socialities like Felix and his family like it suggests. Focuses too much on one specific relationship when other characters' dynamic could have easily had significant symbolism and meaning to the film. 
          
          Mostly, the film is brilliant. Beautiful cinematography, beautiful setting. The movie's plot moves like a Greek tragedy play, something out of Yorgos Lanthimos' mind but gay. Could've been gayer, only because the straight scenes were so wild that it should be shown just how low that mf can go, and I know it could've been lower.

Just saw a spreadsheet of ao3's top 100 ships of this year. Who tf is Steve Harrington and Eddie Munson and why are they the top ship?? What is ao3's obsession with shipping two white men? Why do people ship those Winchester brothers?? And Aemond and Lucerys like one isn't played by a 26 year old and the other by a 17 year old?? Also, Ellie and Joel??

@chaosenthuses it’s so strange to me that incest ships are some of the biggest ships I really can’t wrap my head around it??  One of my favourite ships thats cannon is Nicky x Joe aka nicolo di Genova and Yusef Al-Kaysani who are two well written and complex characters with a long history  and are widely known for being a healthy queer couple — but it’ll lose to an omega verse Winchester incest ship…
