Ok, someone on Reddit just described Ncuti as “the first hot Doctor”….?
Like, wtf? The Doctor of NuWho became dead sexy the moment David Tennant graced our screens, then Matt Smith, and Jodie is super beautiful too!
Ncuti is just maintaining the trend of casting youthful , attractive actors as the whimsical Time Lord.
Ok I know the instagram comments is generally the place for the worst of humanity to gather but I was looking at some for general news on Tron 3. One about “begging for daft punk” to return etc
Discovered that
1.) a lot of people have no clue Tron 2 was even a thing. Both fans of the original and daft punk fans
2.) a lot of people who had no clue Tron 3 was going to be a thing then expressing imitate disappointment that it’s going to be Leto
3.) rise in concern and confusion when hearing about the plot
Definitely not original fans. Maybe legacy fans because the aesthetic remains but that’s a bit risky with the story line. And once again they’re not advertising at all, so like genuinely I ask…
@umbrulla I hope you don't mind me tagging you, I noticed you liked the last one and thought you'd enjoy this one too!
Alright, last video you got the carefree fun loving side of RRR but now it’s time for ANGST. Yes, it is THAT Bad Blood. This idea started as half joking but it quickly became deadly serious for me and I’m incredibly pleased with the result.
Contains more plot spoilers for RRR than the previous video and more general violence and (bad) blood. If you’ve seen the movie you know what to expect but if you’ve haven’t then you can make your own judgement call on the matter (and also you should go watch it right now it’s really good I promise).
Had this idea like a week ago and I can finally draw it lol. This was quick so don't come at me for how terrible the suits are plss I'm sorry – I also had no idea what to do for the background
Career Timeline: 1981 - TRON
Moebius is hired by Disney Studios to begin concept design work for TRON(released in 1982). He would also serve as a backup storyboard artist.
So i have been thinking how The Grid is almost a copy of a human city, everything is made to resemble the real world but better, the buildings, the vehicles, the programs.
Everything was created the way Kevin liked it, their own leader is made at the likeness of their creator, but in Encom, there was no way i could have been like that, they didnt knew how the human world looked like, they didnt even recognized a user when they saw him, i believe that the reason why the looked like humans and not all of them actually (TRON 2.0) was because all the digitalizing and experiments that they were doing in there and that kind of apperance was more a render than the real code and that their normal form is nothing close to something human and more something to do the things they were made to do: a hacker should be elusive and able to sneak anywhere, a simulator could look something like a projector or even resembling the same machine she operates, and a firewall, a security system created to destroy a whole control program should be sharp, strong, fast and able to tear apart everything that stands in their way.

Dune always gets me with the prescience thing.
Knowing every possible future can't be any form of freedom when you are chained to the only route that will save humanity. A route that kills 62 billion and counting in order to save the rest and it's all for a goal hundreds of millennia in the future.
By becoming the Kwisatz Haderach you have doomed the rest of your lineage to take part in your bloody work and have forever stained your beloved father's name.
The golden path is paved with blood on Atreides hands, but would not interfering make it any different? Can you justify the means if it means the survival of your race? Do you even deserve to survive after what you've done?
Does Paul(and Leto II) actually limit the possibilities through his/their own perception of the future? Could it have gone differently if humanity hadn't discovered the spice and interfered with time in the first place?
Or, like eating the one forbidden fruit in the middle of a garden, was this always the only option for us because humans can't help but fuck around and find out?
Initial Ares reaction.
Neil Gaiman “Google can bring you back 100,000 answers, a librarian can bring you back the right one.” They also look at you funny when you request 2 copies of the same book through the inter-library loan. Even funnier looks when you insist on a hardback and paperback copy.
My quest inspired by @crowleysbookshop for the differences between versions of The Crow Road ended with: 1) two different publishers (Scribner vs. Abacus) and 2) different cover work artists. So not allot. If there is a difference, I missed it.
But there's double-meaning of Crow Road.
Crow Road is a street in Glasgow.
Crow Road is also a metaphor for death.
Two Crow Roads. Two Deaths. A second death.

The phrase "second death" appears 4 times in the Bible, specifically the Book of Revelation. The one Nanny Ashtoreth and Brother Francis read to Warlock.
There's a first physical death. You've shuffled off this mortal coil and gone to meet your maker.
The second death is a reference to an eternal separation from God for non-believers and a swim in the Lake of Fire. Where bad folks go when they die.
A traditional interpretation is that the "lake of fire" and the "second death" are symbolic of eternal pain, pain of loss and perhaps pain of the senses, as punishment for wickedness.
Revelation 20:11-15
“Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.”
If I read that right those who experience this death are all those whose names have been removed from the Book of Life.
There's Hemingway's quote, "Every man has two deaths, when he is buried in the ground and the last time someone says his name. In some ways men can be immortal." Is that also a Book of Life reference? The power of a name.
I don't understand the Book of Life yet. It's just something you scare cherubs with. I've seen some great meta from @beebopboom on it and the Guardian of the Eastern Gate.

I'm still wondering about these seats. Left Crow Road has rabbit seated. Rabbits are a Fibonacci reference. Then the empty seat. Then second Crow Road with Elspeth's hat over the back.
Why is there an empty seat?
Is it for Death?
A missing book? A book between two deaths. That seat is for the Book of Life.
I can't promise that I will only talk about tron in the year of our lord 2021 but I will be thinking about it constantly.
