Goncharov Lore (“Gonchlore” if you will) Masterpost

Note: this is regarding the lore made up by tumblr collaboratively about a fake Martin Scorsese film. See the post that started it all and fake poster.

Goncharov was released in 1973. It was written by Matteo JWHJ 0715 and directed (?) and/or possibly co-written by Martin Scorsese. Scorsese’s big name helped popularize the film, but as a result JWHJ 0715’s significant contribution is often overlooked

Goncharov was forgotten and was actually difficult to acquire for many years. This may have been due to corporations hoarding rights and access, the actually mafia targeting distribution of the film, other factors, or a combination of these. This led to pirating of the film, which allegedly led to pirating discourse surrounding the film

There are talks of a Goncharov II or remake

Goncharov is a mafia boss in Naples of Russian origin. His wife/fiancée is named Katya, also of Russian origin. Goncharov may or may not have fled Russia, and may or may not have been pursued by someone trying to get him back to Russia, possibly to face legal justice. One such person trying to do this could be Valery Michailov

Valery Michailov in Katya’s sister. He may resent Goncharov due to his relationship with his sister and due to Goncharov being wanted by the Russian government. He is somewhat patriotic, possibly a former government worker or soldier.

Katya’s last name is either Michailova or Goncharova (although possibly with the wrong suffix). Her relationship with Goncharov is strained, tense, and possibly loveless. She ends up betraying him in the end. This is often seen as a subversion on the typical tropes for women in mafia movies.

At some point, Katya is on a bridge with Goncharov. At some point, Katya points a gun at Goncharov. At some point, Katya is injured on a boat/in a boathouse.

Katya is amicable with someone named Sofia, who has brown hair. She also has subtextual homoerotic tension with her

Sofia may be working class/poorer than many of the other characters are.

Goncharov has subtextual homoerotic tension with someone named Andrey. Andrey is Goncharov’s old friend/best friend/nemesis/enemy/competitor. There is at least one instance of one of them trying to kill the other.

Ice pick Joe is played by John Cazale, making this his 6th movie. He has a famous 10 minute scene with Katya, and at some point dies, also possibly at the hands of Katya.

Mario Ambrosini works with Goncharov, possibly as a lackey or number two. At some point in the middle of the story, he betrays Goncharov and Goncharov tells him that he “never wants to see [Mario] again”. It is unclear what happens to him after that. Mario also has a relationship with Andrey that some have described as “fascinating”. It is unclear how.

There is a clock motif in Goncharov, and a general theme regarding “running out of time” before death. There are a few characters who seem at the very least subconsciously aware of the fact that they have little time until their death. The film also deals with the theme of fate, of death and tragedy being and inevitable thing for these characters.

Goncharov dies at the end of the movie, due to someone’s betrayal.

Goncharov (1973) was heavily influenced by the American Cold War propaganda of the time. Some argue that it plays right into the stereotypes of Russians, others say it is a clever subversion of the propaganda and stereotypes of the time.

I wish each individual chapter of a fic on AO3 had the date when it was posted, rather than just when the fic was first posted and when the last update was.  

That way you can see at a glance how often a WIP is updated, whether it’s fairly regularly or with huge long gaps between chapters; or if the first 20 chapters were posted in quick succession but the most recent couple were posted at long intervals, indicating that the writer is losing interest and may not finish, etc.

Okay Percy Jackson might be getting an adaptation holy shit.

All I can say is I think it should start with HoO instead of PJO I don’t think making another attempt at Lightning Thief so soon is the best idea.

Firstly because it’s a lot more doable for Disney to get full time high school, college aged actors for a long running gig. (The way they filmed Mandalorian was in a single filming time period by season rather than weekly like a Disney channel show).

Not to mention that age group is the kids who would have READ THE BOOKS AS CHILDREN. I’m 18 and PJO is what I grew up reading. (I’m a freshman acting major, gods please let me audition for Thalia Grace)

I think HoO is also a more inclusive and interesting story. I love PJO but I think having the story follow the seven could allow for some much needed diversity on screen have the audience be to a slightly older age group. Dealing with some of the themes that HoO does, race and racism, homosexuality and identity, friendships and relationships, family problems, mental disorders I mean hell that could be to such a wide range audience.

LOOK at Mandalorian right now. It has been crafted so that 50 year old Star Wars nerds and young adults and young kids can ALL enjoy the show.

I think HoO could take a classic adventure story to the big screen and a wide audience

this morning NASA abandoned their mars rover Opportunity (aka Oppy) because it (she) got hit by a storm on Mars and it knocked her camera and wheels out and her last words to the team were “my battery is low and it is getting cold”. I know she’s a machine but I’m devastated. Oppy is the one who discovered water on Mars. RIP oppy ily space baby

love myself a cockroach of a character. i look at them and go ”how is that fucker not dead? they should be dead. they should be dead ten times over. how are they not?” and 90% of the time the answer is a combo of sheer stubborness and homosexuality

I was worried that they really weren’t together anymore and weren’t talking and then I heard this song and realized this was a

love confession

I went to Amsterdam without you

And all I could do was think about you

And, oh, I should've known

I went to Tokyo to let it go

Drink after drink but I still felt alone

I should've known

I went to so many places

Looking for you in the faces

I could feel it

Oh, I could feel it

I'm wasting my time when it was always you, always you

Chasing the high but it was always you, always you

Should've never let you go, oh-oh

Should've never let you go, my baby

Go, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

I went from LAX to Heathrow

Walk through my door but it felt nothing like home

'Cause you're not home

Waiting to wrap your legs around me

And I know you hate to smoke without me and, oh

Now you know

I'm wasting my time when it was always you, always you

Chasing the high but it was always you, always you

Should've never let you go, oh-oh

Should've never let you go, my baby

Go, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Should've never let you go, oh-oh

Should've never let you go, my baby

Go, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

I went to so many places

Looking for you in the faces

I could feel it

Oh, I could feel it

Wasting my time when it was always you, always you

I was chasing the high but it was always you, always you

Should've never let you go, oh-oh

Should've never let you go, my baby

Go, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Should've never let you go, oh-oh

Should've never let you go, my baby

Go, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

My baby

Oh, my baby
