I don’t know if anyone has done this yet. But this is like Luther anytime anything happens in the show.
P.S I’m obsessed with the Umbrella Academy
“I want what she’s on.” The spectrum??

raise your hand if you have ever had to wait 7 seasons for your ship to become canon even though they are the least platonic pairing in the history of tv
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 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
Shit bro
Due to recent events, I’be been thinking about the “Adore You” music video. At first I used to think Louis was the/ represented by the fish, but then I thought, maybe Louis is the sun…
Perpetual cloud cover for as long as anyone can remember. It’s the contract. They’ve been under contract for their whole career.
So the cloud cover is the contract.
And the cloud cover makes it so the sun can’t come out.
Louis is the sun and he can’t come out because of the contract.
Harry is the boy. He is on Eroda, on the other side of the clouds, separated from the sun.
Because of their contract, Harry can’t be around Louis, they are separated from each other.
The boy/Harry and everyone else on Eroda (the fans/Larries?) are sad because they/Harry do not have the sun.
But when the cloud cover breaks - when the contract breaks/ends - the sun - Louis - can come out. And this makes Harry and everyone else on the island happy because they can be together.
They are no longer separated by cloud cover. Louis and Harry can be together when the clouds - their contract - breaks.
… and … sunflowers can’t grow without the sun. When the clouds break and the sun comes out, sunflowers will grow on Eroda…
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
when spiderman was first created (1962) and when Mary Jane Watson was first introduced (1965) interracial marriage was still illegal in the United States. (Loving v Virginia, the supreme court case that legalized it, didn’t happen until 1967)
50 years later, MJ is black and we have an interracial onscreen kiss between the two characters
and that’s actually a pretty big deal
