the way my respect for an actor skyrockets when i hear that they actually research their character and reference the original source material, especially when explaining why they're unhappy with what the director/script is doing with said character
"I can't even show you the scars from all the times I've tried to kill myself, they'd healed. When you touched me without your glove that was the closest to death I'd ever been and I realized I didn't like it."
CUT LOGAN LINE FROM X-MEN THAT HUGH AUDITIONED WITH
just to be clear: i started writing a screenplay
there's something fascinating about how tarantino describes his storytelling process and artistic vision. the way he articulates the deliberate choices he makes and the importance of their effect demonstrates the depth of his understanding as a director and writer. he gets you think about his work, analyze the various possibilities with the freedom to draw your own conclusions, and even seek it out again to view it through a new lens, which is probably the best reception to get from audiences. he said that wanted people to watch his movies and be inspired to make their own and he absolutely nailed it. massive respect
maybe it's because wade doesn't believe he is lovable and logan doesn't believe he deserves love so they prove each other wrong
or maybe it's because they're two idiots in love who lack basic communication skills idk
I need you to understand that when I say "comments are appreciated!" I mean that I will reply to every one of them. I mean that an email with an ao3 notification has a higher priority than a message from my mother. I mean that I will have entire discussions in the comment section if you're up for it. Message me on tumblr and I will have the same discussions on an even more unhinged level. I will dissect entire personalities and ships and fictional political structures and worldbuilding with you. I will become your new best friend. You already ARE my new best friend. At the last battle, I would raise Anduril and say "For my ao3 readers" while a single tears rolls down my cheek, and dive into the fray. I would upload from beyond the grave if someone asked about the next chapter
i can't do another divorce c'mon marvel LET THEM BE MARRIED
whoever said fiction isn't compelling is lying because i started learning german after watching x men first class
family game night with wade, logan, and laura but it always ends with logan stabbing wade because that motherfucker definitely cheats even though laura usually ends up winning anyway (they had to ban playing monopoly after logan nearly decapitated wade after he landed on boardwalk)
wade: this wolverine is from a different universe
ao3 writers: where secondary genders exist
logan: have you no shame
wade: we're WELL past that
