GOOD MORNING TENNISBLR ITS A BEAUTIFUL DAY

lotr version because this meme encompasses my entire being

“Why do you like Alicent?” “How could you like Alicent” “she’s a traitor”

My favorite Shakespearean character is Lady Macbeth. This should be a surprise to no one. God forbid women do anything

Also Olivia Cooke is hot

“something is rotten inside of me, i have to find it and cut it out”

Bravo also to Robert Eggers for probably the least bad depiction of Transylvania in Western vampire cinematic history:

1. Having actual Romanian actors doing the dialogue in Romanian. You'd think this is a low bar to clear but nope.

2. High quality costume design that looks pretty accurate to 19th century Romanian and Roma peasantry, even down to specific braided hairstyles from the Transylvanian region.

3. Depiction of Roma people but refrains from having them as some typical Hollywood exoticizing role like a magical fortune teller etc. They're in like half a scene, just chilling and playing music in front of an inn.

4. Use of the word "strigoi" which are actual spirits in Romanian folklore, unlike the term "vampire" which didn't exist in Romania.

5. Sorry to the Nosferatu moustache haters, but a Romanian nobleman would have had that exact facial hair.

6. Depiction of religion (nuns, churches) that actually looks like Eastern Orthodoxy and not some vaguely spooky goth Christianity.

fuck all romance except for whatever that ex-Satanist and the youth pastor have going on

Obviously this is NOT done but I think I speak for all Rhaenicent fans when I say that we will take whatever we can get. So anyway here’s my progress on these babies

we already have people bitching about how “i can’t stand Chani, she’s so annoying 🙄” and “Paul chose Chani to be the mother of his children, Irulan is just at the sidelines eating dust as she should”, like brothers we cannot do this again. We can’t Chani v Irulan our way out of this one because the problem is Paul and the Empire. Gosh, we truly are never getting out of the patriarchy.
