Kill your overdesigned darlings and ask; what is this character supposed to be, really?
comment in response to

Comic only works if you see the protagonist in the antagonist. Went too far into the creature feature realm. Simpler is better. More direct.

AND the time frame directly plays into the plot
Like the 9 years actually matters. It’s really cool

Insidious 1 and 2 are a duology, kind of like halloween 1 and 2. Like they’re very much one overall story (and 2 is the worst one), but then 3 moves forward in real time and there has been genuine impactful character progression.

Most of them except for the red door are on tubi. I rented TRD on apple

3 and the last key offer background context to the psychic (and she’s my favorite character in the series), but you don’t need to watch them to get the core family trilogy. You won’t miss anything

So, if you want to get to the red door asap, it’s important to know that the movies cover two narratives; the family and a psychic
Insidious 3 and 4 are prequels about the latter
1,2, [9 years later in real time], TRD is the family’s story

my ratings
The Red Door
Insidious 3
Insidious
The Last Key
Insidious 2
It’s important to go in knowing that they are very arch; they’re designed exactly like walkthrough horror mazes
But the final film is legit *great*

its genuinely adorable that patrick wilson ended his directorial debut that was clearly directly inspired by paint it black by the rolling stones with an original song by patrick wilson

It’s got legit character growth, there’s no camp acting, despite being Patrick Wilson’s first director gig, it looks fantastic. Its got genuine laugh out loud moments and even goes full Raimi at multiple points
I’m really shocked at how much I liked it. I was not expecting that at all

And so far we've seen nothing from the "opposition party" to protect us

It will take months before it is even voted on but fuck, this is dark to know they are finally doing it.
What people always told me I was exaggerating on, or panicking or fear mongering
is real
I need to contact my friends

But you are just a sunk cost right now.

If it weren’t for the kindness of others, you’d have nothing. And you feel guilty about that all the time.
All the time
Not because they demand it, but because you can’t pay it back. And you want to do right by your friends

So you smoke your last cigarette and ready yourself for withdrawals and it doesn’t matter because it’s just one more thing that sucks
comment in response to
post
so you pay the phone bill but don’t eat, and when you have money you eat, but you don’t have new clothes because it’s a luxury
You buy eyeliner pencil and feel guilty at the price
You lose focus on things that made you feel more real

you put what you can towards what you can pay to stay afloat
Two pairs of pants, both too big. One pair of shoes. clothes that don’t fit anymore. When was the last time you felt pretty? When was the last time you wanted to try? You don’t even remember

you want to scream “what the fuck will it take? What is missing to make me feel right? What piece is absent, which keeps me from peace?”
And you get no answers, because you’re the only one who can answer that question
But you’re so very tired
comment in response to

Tired of not being good enough to be better at any of this
fucking tired

Wake up and another right is stripped, another freedom trashed. The world keeps telling you they want you dead, and all you’re trying to do is make it one more week with your head down
Every single day is an attack, on mind body and spirit
You keep going
But you’re going nowhere

one step forward, two steps back. a side step to waste time. another step forward, but then the destination moves.
just an aimless spot on the map, trying to keep the engines running until I find some place to be
tired
tired
tired of not enough, when enough is so little

spent nearly four years dying in slow motion. lived without fear of death. never made plans. never thought about tomorrow
now I’m in a rebuilding chapter, but it feels like I can’t find the blocks
got used to surviving
just being is exhausting
comment in response to

tired of feeling frozen
and confused
and behind
always so behind
how do you even catch up?
you keep trying but it feels like you just keep the distance the same
comment in response to
post
tired of not knowing where the next step should be
tired of not knowing who I should be in this chapter
tired of running out of cigarettes
tired of never getting restless sleep
tired of creative block
tired of feeling like a failure because I can’t be creative
