the notebook (2004) reunion happening on letterboxd rn

me ever since i realized i can just block anyone who upsets me

i think it's so cute when fanfic writers incorporate the mannerisms of actors in their fic like it was the character's

The show won't work. It'll collapse, or be cancelled. Essiedu (Snape) is already receiving death threats before a single episode has aired. An Italian actress has been cast as Parvati Patil, a canonically Indian character. Stanton's parents had to disable all of their daughter's social media within an hour of her casting announcement due to racism and, again, death threats. She is eleven years old and already articles dissecting her skin colour have since been written. The cast is already fracturing. Lithgow nearly quit over Rowling. Nick Frost publicly distanced himself from her views. Essiedu signed an open letter supporting trans people, while playing a character in a show exec produced by Britain's most prominent anti-trans voice. The show is also biannual, not annual. Season one arrives Christmas 2026. Deathly Hallows, if they get there, lands around 2040. John Lithgow will be 95, almost guaranteeing he'll die during filming, much like Richard Harris died aged 72 after just two films. The story itself is a now a logistical trap. A Black Snape being hung upside down by the Marauders, spending years fighting for blood purity, then dying for the cause of a white woman he loved. Those scenes cannot be written cleanly anymore. Every choice will generate a fresh brand new controversy from absolutely every angle and political sphere. This franchise requires a sustained decade of audience goodwill to function. That goodwill simply does not exist anymore, as her base is now the most vitriolic, toxic abusers, a narrative at some point (if not already, seemingly) HBO Max will have to adresss. The three child leads have not signed long-term contracts. What happens when they're 18, 19, 20, with fully formed opinions about the woman whose name is on the tin? The magic is a dead horse.

patrick with the langdon funkopop i made for him 🫶🩷

Patrick shares a photo of the bracelets and croc jibbitz he has received at the ‘Becky Shaw’ stagedoor: “I am so set”

@goldrushmels well maybe?? hoping they didn't leave it at that

@pinechans wait is her plot done?? was lowkey expecting her to come back with something worse wrong like samira’s guy did

i also can't believe that harlow's storyline wasn't about healthcare workers (in this case santos) ignoring and dismissing deaf patients like what was that plot point even about? santos was continually delaying her care for stupid reasons and then nothing came of it

demisexual mel king you are beloved and true TO ME

goth doctor princess!

on one hand, patrick and taylor’s chemistry / mel & langdon’s dynamic is undeniable and it makes perfect sense that the ship has the following it does. on the other, it began as an extrapolation of the show’s subtext and didn’t need to be something the actors ever weighed in on

people just being pissed at langdon for no reason like the way he reacted in the scene with al hashimi after she found out about the diversion. like yeah her attitude changed and he noticed. what's bad about it 😭

none of your fucking business. if it were your business then you’d know

#TAYLORDEARDEN : They like the way I'm walkin'

what do you mean you want me to do another autopsy? and why do i have to it right now? i just spent hours on my feet doing an autopsy, all for you. i do it all for you mulder. you know i haven’t eaten since 6 o’clock this morning and all that was was half of a cream cheese bagel

@ghouIcy no exactly!!!!!

Thank you to alysonafterdark on tumblr for asking me to make this one! I hope I did your vision justice! #thepittfanart #kingdon #langdonmel

good morning langdonmel nation
