sam and dean being Known serial killers who have been on the fbi watchlist for a decade and have faked their deaths multiple times is actually very funny. I like to think literally everyone in town knows they're wanted by multiple US agencies but are like. they've evaded arrest so many times. do we really wanna anger the serial killers? no one in town has been killed let's not push it. and then the longer it goes on they begrudgingly start to like the winchesters because they tip well and are generally helpful around the community. plus their son is an absolute delight and everyone wants to figure out what's going on between dean and the weird trenchcoat guy who hangs around sometimes. like, they can't turn them into the cops before getting resolution on their relationship! the town has a betting pool! sam starts a community garden and dean jumps at the chance to help with odd jobs if he over hears people complaining about something when he's hanging out. they're politer than most of the normal locals.
you know how some towns are like 'oh yeah that's the house where the Witch lives'? everyone in lebanon is just like 'there's the nuclear fallout shelter where our local serial killers live ❤ they're pillars of this community ❤ snitch to the feds and the town will band together to eliminate you❤'

Now I feel obligated to main him. I mean, I was going to anyway but this feels like a calling.
Philza, watching the news: Someone tried to fight a squid at the aquarium today!
Ranboo: *walks in covered with ink* Well, maybe the squid was being homophobic.

So in Rise there’s a small running gag where whenever one of his family members try to assume what Leo’s doing it cuts to him doing basically the opposite of what they’ve just said.
Raph: Hey! Where’s Leo?
Mikey: I’m sure wherever he is, he’s trying to save us
Raph: Leo probably talked his way straight into Big Mamma’s dungeon
But the interesting thing about this gag is the reverse isn’t true, when Leo guesses his families actions he’s almost always correct in predicting their actions
Leo: Look I bet the only reason we’re here right now is ‘cause Donnie inputted coordinates
Donnie: After inputting Shredder’s previous coordinates on the X-Y-Z and D for Donnie axis, I have calculated that this is the sight of our final resting spot
Leo: Mikey Razzed his Tazz
Mikey: Whip-o-Rama!
Leo: April finally used her crane license
April: ‘Why would you get a crane license April?’ BECAUSE THIS!
Leo: And Raph is going to put it all together in a plan to defeat that led head with this mystic collar
Raph: Wow Leo that’s remarkably accurate
Leo being able to predict his families actions to a near perfect accuracy shows his skill as a strategist & potential as a leader but the fact that the reverse isn’t true, that Leo’s family CAN’T seem to predict Leo’s actions to a almost humorous degree shows that while Leo has an understanding of his family, his family fails to truly understand him.
I just can’t stop thinking about the fact that Leo knows his family far better than they know him.
Dazai: [ subconsciously licks his finger to wipe some dirt off Atsushi’s face ]
Atsushi: What’re you doing, Dazai-san?
Dazai: Oh my god. I’ve become Odasaku.
Dazai: I’ve been trying to avoid becoming Mori for so long that I didn’t see it coming.
Netflix's Avatar adaptation has its own amount of faults, but one thing I've really noticed is the beautiful use of color.
Most notably, while it is stated a few times that Aang is everyone's hope for the war to end it is also constantly shown through the cold and washed out tones of many of the scenes. These cold colors reflect the hopelessness that the rest of the world is feeling in a war torn environment. And amongst this bleakness Aang's vibrant clothing shines brightly, like a lamp in a dark room. His warm color palette LITERALLY shows him as a beacon of light and hope.
I wish they kept more of his vibrant, childish personality from the original to really make thus difference pop. However, the way they frame him in the center of the screen in many of his scenes presents some beautiful imagery that I wished people would acknowledge more.
I also want to note that the only time Aang matches his environment is when he's with Gyatso.
Void Stiles: I think I'm getting better at this. I didn't even stab him.
Kira: And we are so proud of you. No-stabbing Wednesdays, new tradition.
