Wonder Woman Needs Our Help

I don’t normally make posts like this, but I feel like this is something I need to do because it’s bigger than myself. So, I don’t know if you’ve heard but the Wonder Woman film comes out June 2nd… And if you didn’t know that, there’s a reason for it. Warner Brothers aren’t spending money on promoting the Wonder Woman film. No tv promotions, billboards, nothing. A film about a strong, powerful, amazing woman superhero directed by Patty Jenkins who happens to be the first woman to direct a superhero film with a female protagonist and one of only a handful (a literal handful… you can count on one hand) to direct a superhero film at all. They are setting it up to fail so they can say “I told you so” and not only continue the blatant sexism in the film industry but blame it on Patty if the movie fails, setting female directors up (whom are already told they won’t get hired) so they can have an excuse to say “Oh well, we tried hiring a woman to direct a film and it didn’t work. Lets not do that again.” This film is bigger than just being a superhero movie… It has the ability to bust open the glass ceiling of Hollywood to tell them that yes, superhero movies about women do well and yes, women can not only direct blockbusters but they can do it well. Because I can guarantee you, Patty does it well. PLEASE spread this around and let Warner Brothers know we aren’t going to stand for this bullshit. GO SEE WONDER WOMAN JUNE 2nd!!!

Winning? Is that what you think it’s about? I’m not trying to win. I’m not doing this because I want to beat someone or because I hate someone.

Dating Dean Winchester Would Include:

Warnings- There is mention of an injury (no real description though), some arguments (none of them violent), and a one-night stand is mentioned as well. Apart from that, it shouldn’t upset anyone.

- You and Dean met while you both were researching for a hunt disguised as FBI agents. - You two were both super confused at first before figuring out the other was a hunter. - After some arguing between you and the Winchesters, it became clear that you’re all too stubborn to leave so you may as well work together. - Your stubbornness causes you to clash with Dean. Sam mostly rolled his eyes in the background while you two fought. - This tension soon led to a one-night stand. - You all continue to bicker after this. - Sam storms away and leaves you two alone to research and sort through your issues. - While researching, you and Dean get to know each other. - This leads you to realize that he isn’t quite as mean and cocky as he would have others believe. - He discovers that you’re quite an accepting and open person actually and don’t like to pick fights. - You go over how you got into hunting and that causes you to realize just how similar the two of you are. - Sam returns, satisfied that you two are getting along now. - Later, during the hunt, Dean gets injured. - This leads to you flirting with him to try to keep him conscious long enough to get him somewhere safe enough to treat his wound. - Your talk with him escalates and you promise him a date when he heals, thinking that he wouldn’t remember. - After the hunt is resolved and Dean is patched up, he asks about that date. - And so, your relationship began. - He is super protective of you. It can get really irritating sometimes. - Really. It’s to the point where he tries to convince you to stop hunting and live in the bunker 24/7. - You but sing loudly to his classic rock music together. - He lets you drive his car sometimes. - You two trust each other a lot. - He’s huge on PDA. Anything from hand-holding to make-out sessions is okay for him in public. - You both love to cuddle. - You both alternate who is the big spoon and who is the little spoon. - Whenever you have a nightmare, he’ll just take you in his arms and listen to what happened in your dream. He’ll then reassure you and offer extra training time to try to prevent whatever happened from occurring. - When he has a nightmare, you do the same. - You lessen his insecurity by reminding him how important, intelligent, resourceful, heroic, loyal, and loved he is. - You’re both super proud of each other and constantly trying to one up each other’s supportiveness. - For example: You’ll mentioned how he cut off those vamps’ heads in one clean blow and he’ll counter with mentioning how artful your decapitation was of that alpha you all had encountered. - If you get injured in any way during a hunt by someone, he’ll step up training with you and go over the situation again and again. - Even after you have gotten it right six times over and are 100% confident in your ability to avoid the scenario. You eventually have to call Sam in to let Dean know that it’s okay now. - So many ‘I love you’s. - You bake him a lot of pies. - Particularly after arguments. - Speaking of arguments, they’re frequent and often involve some yelling. - They never escalate beyond that though as you both love each other very much. - You two make up very shortly after your arguments as you both love each other too much to stay away. - You become BFFs with Sam, Cas, Crowley, Charlie, and Kevin. - Dean and you still flirt a lot with each other and sometimes will say cheesy pickup lines to make the other laugh. - You love it when he cooks. - He loves it when you cook. - You both cook and bake together super often. - This usually involves some level of food fights and other immature but immensely fun activities. - You both love each other to pieces and are happy to have found a balance between an “apple pie life” and hunting.

JELLY BABY OH MY GOD

Being BFFs with Crowley Would Include:

Warning: There's a curse in here. It isn't a terrible one though. No worse than what you would hear on the show. - You met him when you were a Hunter and he was still a crossroads demon. - You were going to kill him, but instead you got on really well and just started ranting about everything together. - Next thing you know, you're eating lunch in Hell with him. - Supporting each other, but not always agreeing with each other. - You'd be his advisor. - You'd have your own smaller throne next to his throne in Hell and you'd both quip to each other on every subject that was brought up. - You aren't necessarily a demon or evil. You probably could be considered morally ambiguous though. - This morality of yours makes Hell a slightly less, well, Hellish place. - At first, this led to criticism of Crowley's reign but he quickly shut it down by torturing and then killing all who spoke ill of you and your effect on him. - People, angels, monsters, and demons are so terrified of you. - Partly because you're a badass on your own who can kill them, but also because of Crowley keeping tabs on you. - They won't even touch you because they know you two would come for them. - You convince Crowley to cooperate with the Winchesters more by explaining how it is in his and Hell's interests. - Juliet and his other Hellhounds love you. - He gave you two little Hellhound puppies that you can actually see. - You recognize Crowley deserves to be loved and you do love him. - And you give him so many hugs. This secretly really makes him happy. Although he acts like he's bored for the most part during them. - If you date anyone, you can bet that they have been thoroughly vetted and will never hurt you. - You and Crowley both enjoy drinks with tiny umbrellas and pitchforks in them together. - You enjoy making puns with him about Hell. - He teaches you different languages. Some are dead but that just makes them mean that much more to you. - You're next in line for the throne. - He frequently becomes really upset and you always can calm him down. - Taking pictures of you two acting overly enthusiastic together in ridiculous outfits in different locations. You have so many of those pictures. - Whenever someone pops up to attempt to uproot his position, he makes sure that you're well-guarded as well. - You two are excellent problem-solvers together. - The Winchesters are simultaneously grateful for your friendship and enraged by your friendship. WARNING- I do not own Supernatural. None of the characters mentioned are mine and you are owned by you. Please don't sue me.

Happy Birthday James D’Arcy!

May today be nothing short of…

Live Fast Die Young Bad Girls Do it Well

I went to see Atomic Blonde and I’m having the same kind of bombed out, obsessive reaction of “is this what it’s like to see someone like ME kick ass on screen? is this why men are so confident?” that some of my girlfriends had to Wonder Woman. 

I enjoyed Wonder Woman (other than the disastrous and cheesy 3rd act) but it was really difficult for me to identify with her- she’s naive, idealistic, super heterosexual (for a Patty Jenkins film), largely untouchable/unhurtable, and she’s also honestly kind of dumb: most of the movie is just men telling her not to do something, and she does it anyway, but only succeeds because she’s brute-forcing with DEMI-GOD POWERS in a world of mortals. 

Atomic Blonde on the other hand is about a cynical, world-weary, haunted, non-heteronormative woman who actually has to actively WORK to survive: the stunning action sequences really show how much more effort she has to put in and how much she has to use her brain to survive brutal hand to hand combat with men who are bigger and stronger than her and outnumber her in every single encounter. She takes her licks and they show- the amazingly gorgeous Charlize Theron stumbles around half the movie covered in bruises and scars.

One felt like an action figure and the other felt like a woman like me. I think that Wonder Woman is a great role model for young girls, but Atomic Blonde is a movie for all those women who, like me, have taken their licks and fought tooth and nail in a world of men who actively make it hard for them to succeed at every turn. It’s about fucking time. 

I saw "Kingsman: The Golden Circle" and it was really spectacular! I do feel like they forgot about Eggsy's sibling though. :( Also, bring tissues because there will be tears.

Am I the only one who noticed that "Not in Vain" (the piece played when the antidote is being sent all over the world), borrowed heavily from "Auld Lang Syne"??? Because that hurt a whole lot.

Edit: Also "Take Me Home, Country Roads" has a similar tune to "Auld Lang Syne" (and is closest to "Not in Vain"). Well, that makes it even worse.

“the man from u.n.c.l.e. sequel is in development”
