so a while ago @everywhereilooktheres and I were talking about how there has never been an age-appropriate Sherlock Holmes adaptation–they meet in canon when Watson is twenty-nine and Holmes is TWENTY-SEVEN–and how this should be rectified.
I present to you, the Dream Fancast.
Sherlock Holmes, aged 27:
Ezra Miller is currently 26, so let’s GET ON IT
and John Watson, aged 29
Dev Patel is currently 29. YOU GUYS. YOU GUYS HE EVEN HAS A MOUSTACHE. I AM VERKLEMPT
WHO CAN MAKE THIS HAPPEN, GUYS. WHO CAN DO THE THING.
I definitely agree that this Ezra Miller looks most satisfyingly “aquiline.” He has…. A FINE NOSE
My ideal Star Wars movie would be a nature documentary of cute space critters narrated by the robot from Rogue One, who clearly knows nothing about nature and is making the descriptions up as he goes along.
I am counting on LF to give us the awesome female friendship between Rey and Rose that we deserve because we should be able to have nice things dammit.
if i was a pirate captain i would get a movie projector and play a movie on the big sails every friday night for my boys to kick back and enjoy some time off unless we were under attack
Pirates legit did the 16-17th century equivalent of this. When things were slow, they would put on plays, act out dramas of stories they knew, or freestyle. The most preferred model of original productions was courtroom drama: “trying” each other for piracy. The “accused” would list off their many, dramatically and humorously embellished crimes, and be equally dramatically sentenced. Sometimes there was a daring escape, sometimes just a really maudlin death scene, but a good time was had by all.
Thor, post-Ragnarok, doesnt really know what to do with himself. he’s lost. so he pushes some buttons and manages to space-skype-call steve rogers. thor relates to steve what went down, and basically goes. im king even though i didnt really wanna be, not really sure what to do please help.
and steve goes hey have you ever heard of democracy
so thor, having found a way to maybe not have to be king of asgard or at least be king with a lot more explicit support, delightedly calls a shipwide meeting. he explains the concept of voting (maybe not like. super clearly) and issues ballots. the vote goes like this:
Everybody who’s not really sure what’s going on with this voting thing just votes for thor. that seems like a safe call. some of the really confused ones just write in their own names. a fair number of other asgardians, who actually understand what’s happening, vote thor on purpose, but a lot of it is confusion.
Loki votes for himself. he doesn’t really want to be in charge of this mess but honestly he can’t help himself. Several of the escaped gladiators also vote loki, mostly because they didn’t really follow the whole loki-thor dynamic and loki summoned a giant flaming magma man to kill a planet, which was pretty cool. that guy seems to have a handle on stuff.
the Valkyrie votes “Thor, lord of sparkles.”
Every child votes hulk. they were all issued ballots because nobody realized they maybe shouldn’t be. dr banner votes Hiemdall.
literally every person who has a good grasp on the situation votes heimdall. thor votes hiemdall.
hiemdall loses to thor by one vote. it was heimdall’s. he voted for thor.
i want richard ayoade and taika waititi to co-direct a romantic comedy…. starring themselves
richard is a marine biologist disenchanted with life and taika owns one of those arran style knitwear shops that every coastal town has. it’s love at first sight after richard ruins his jumper whilst researching cuttlefish and taika offers to knit him a new one.
