Okay why is nobody talking about the coked out fever dream that is Beautiful Wedding!?
I've seen commentaries on Beautiful Disaster, which is how I discovered these gloriously terrible movies in the first place, but for some unknown reason, I've found nothing on the (imo far superior) sequel. This is a horrible missed opportunity for the commentary genre and the general public at large who may never get to experience this... experience without the proper publicity. I am in no way the best person for this job, but unfortunately, no one else seems willing, so here we go.
Beautiful Disaster was an objectively bad movie, but I thought it was fun in a very wattpad-esque way. With Dylan Sprouse as a bad boy underground boxer whose most frequent line is "pigeon", you know you're in for a cringey good time.
However, that movie does not hold a candle to the ridiculously awful Beautiful Wedding.
While I wouldn't say Beautiful Disaster was serious in any way, it really felt like everyone involved just gave up all pretense of making, like, an actual movie with the sequel. From what little I know about the book, this movie is completely new material, and oddly enough, I think that worked in its favor. Almost immediately, you just feel a different vibe that lets you know no one making this has any misconceptions about what they're creating. They all know they're making garbage, and they're having fun doing it, which makes it all the more hilarious. The plot is all over the place, the characters make no sense, everything is over the top and beyond nonsensical, and it's great because they lean into it.
There's this one scene near the end where, I shit you not, Dylan Sprouse is on a roof, he sees Abby absolutely caked in mud, he jumps off the roof in slow motion, and lands in a superhero pose. Then they make out while the camera circles them.
Truly it is a shining example of cinema.
Genuinely, I loved watching this movie and will definitely be watching it again. Would recommend to anyone looking for a fun time.
If heaven isn't an endless amount of fics catered to my various ships and fandoms, specifically curated to fit the niche scenario/trope I'm in the mood for at that exact moment, then I don't want it.
I'm not a very spiritual person but I kinda wish I could take all the amazing fanfics I've read with me to the afterlife when I die.
and I am simultaneously both
There are two types of writers:
1. 'It's fiction, it doesn't need to make sense!'
2. 'I didn't account for the rotation of the planet and how that affects the constalations while my characters stargazed at different times of year, I have failed as a writer, and this entire thing is trash'

It's true. Dsmp is the most unique Fandom I've ever been in. The sheer variety alone is astonishing!
We can compare most fandoms to rivers. Branching out from the source material but still streamlined to some degree.
Dsmp is the FUCKING OCEAN! There are mini fandoms within this Fandom. You've got dnf, sbi, ALL THE FUCKING DUOS! It's insane how vast it is. If you don't know what you're looking for going in, you'll never come back out!
Not to mention the amount of ways you can consume content. Fanart, fanfic, animations, original music, and that's all without touching the original content itself! Then there's the mini genres within those categories. Like in fanfic for example you have superhero au, royalty au, modern day au, vampire au, ghost au, fucking DRAGON AU AND SO MUCH MORE!
For all its faults the dsmp Fandom is truly an amazing space to be in. The creativity, talent and passion on display is really inspiring and I'm glad to be apart of it.
Dsmp fan content carries btw
I think a lot about how, if the glorious violent revolution happens, every kid with significant medical needs in a hospital where power gets cut will die.
You can decide you're willing to sacrifice your own life, but you don't get to tell everybody else on the planet that they're acceptable collateral damage.
really wish tumblr would stop calling me tf out
do you ever re-read your own wips like 'damn the bitch that wrote this oughta finish it'
why could I see this happening in my au🤣
Klaus: Damnit, I cut my finger
Caroline: Want me to kiss it better?
Klaus: That works?
Caroline: Yeah, my mom used to do it when I was little
*later*, Klaus: I need you to punch me in the mouth
Kol: Fucking finally
