This is not a joke. I was at a premier showing tonight, and my immediate thought was how disasterously unsafe this movie is for my photosensitive epilepic friends. @markingatlightspeed I’m tagging you with this specifically because this would be extremely dangerous for you to watch.
There are multiple scenes in this movie with full-screen, black-and-white flashing strobe effects. They all happen without warning, and last anywhere between a few seconds to more than two minutes. In a darkened movie theater, this means the likelihood of a seizure could be VERY HIGH if you are sensitive to these effects.
If you have photosensitive epilepsy or another disorder that is triggered by strobe lights, I would highly recommend you DO NOT SEE THE INCREDIBLES 2 IN THEATERS. Wait until the movie’s released on digital/Bluray, and you can watch it in a fully-lit room, with someone with you who will be able to help if the strobe effects do trigger a seizure.
Please stay safe.
Hey, this is a good time to remind everyone that doesthedogdie.com also tracks epilepsy triggers for movies and TV shows as well as emotional/PTSD triggers.
how to know if tumblr has been eating your asks: send yourself anywhere between 5-10 asks, ( anon or not ) but have each ask be nothing but an order in which you sent them.
i.e: the first ask says ‘1′, the second says ‘2′, etc etc.
i sent myself ten of these, both on anon and not. This was all i received back:
Tumblr is now eating asks along with notifications. We must be more interactive than ever if we want keep this form of entertainment we call the rpc. Go ahead and warn your friends or test this for yourselves.. This post is reblogable.
I just sent myself five of these. none of them came through.
I just did this myself last night and out of the ten ask I sent myself only one came through.
Please know if I’m not responding to you, your ask, or your messages, I am notwillingly ignoring you. I am however doing my best to try and stay in contact with everyone.
sorry to everyone who tagged me or sent me an ask. If I didn’t react to it, tumblr didn’t show me.
Hey guys! This is a problem atm. I’m sorry if your request doesn’t come through! If it doesn’t get through, keep sending! I promise it won’t annoy us!
I want to start a new embroidery project and I want the next one to be a quote from Slings and Arrows. I’m looking for suggestions. Preferably from Oliver, maybe from Geoffrey. It can be funny or profound but preferably not to long as I’d like to finish it this century. Otherwise I’d do the entire Ophelia speech.
I also need someone to talk me out of using “My condolences on your limp dick” because it is all I can think of right now.
Personal faves:
– “Go for it, man!” These are the words a director likes to hear.
– The best things happen just before the thread snaps. (Oh, this would be an excellent needlepoint)
– Without the bleats, there’s no irony.
– There’s nothing more boring than perfection.
– There will be struggle. There will be sacrifice. There will be tears, there will be the occasional fistfight. And in the end, there will be transformation.
– I’m not heartless, I’m just detail-oriented.
– If you want to communicate something with the proletariat, cover it in sequins and make it sing.
This post might have worked too well. There are so many I want to do now.
All of these are excellent.
I took my mom shopping yesterday and we went into a Movie Trading Company. This was by far my best find. They didn’t have any of the fairly mainstream movies I was looking for, but they fucking had season 3 of Slings and Arrows. I asked them if they would by chance have any other seasons lying around and the guy checked the system and another store had season 2 and could ship it to my home. All I need now is season 1.
They were both reasonably priced too. I’ve had a hard time finding the complete series for less than $200 online. I know it’s an import but damn.
I invite my closest friends and family to a gender reveal party, but when I open the box with maniacal flourish instead of pink or blue balloons, a television screen is revealed.
I dim the lights remotely as we hear Cate Blanchett say, “The world is changed. I feel it in the water.”
This how they did it. Mark Hamill, what a trooper 🙂💕. Empire Strikes Back 1980
Yeah, seen this one before and Mark dangling from things all thru Empire Strikes Back was MAJOR ATHLETIC
They had Mark lift weights, learn karate, fencing, Katana Lessons, and get certified as a scuba diver (for the bacta tank). They had him hang from At-Ats, frozen caves, weather vanes, and slide down a 30 ft slide. When Vader was throwing things at Luke it was really the crew actually throwing thing AT Mark Hamill!😱
He did the majority of his own stunts except when Luke went through the window, insurance purpose.
Competence is so sexy.
Also he’d just become a new dad. Can u imagine having a newborn, doing all of this, and having a 6AM call time? Mark Hamill is a badass.
