if everyone reblogs this with something in their lives that makes them happy it will be the most positive post in the world

for me it is chicken curry in the dining hall

waking up before my alarm and feeling like I’ve made more time happen

that brief moment when you crest a roller coaster’s first drop before the adrenaline kicks in where you feel so incredibly at peace with the world

the stand-off that happens when I open my front door and one cat wants to go out and one wants to come in and how we all just stand there waiting for the first move and how it’s only hilarious for me because for the cats it’s deadly serious

galifianafuck: Hey, I got an idea, let’s go to the movies. I wanna go to the movies, I want to take you all to the movies. Let’s go and experience the art of the cinema. Let’s begin with the Scream Of Fear, and we are going to haunt us for the rest of our lives. And then let’s go see The Great Escape, and spend our summer jumping our bikes, just like Steve McQueen over barb wire. And then let’s catch The Seven Samurai for some reason on PBS, and we’ll feel like we speak Japanese because we can read the subtitles and hear the language at the same time. And then let’s lose sleep the night before we see 2001: A Space Odyssey because we have this idea that it’s going to change forever the way we look at films. And then let’s go see it four times in one year. And let’s see Woodstock three times in one year and let’s see Taxi Driver twice in one week. And let’s see Close Encounters of the Third Kind just so we can freeze there in mid-popcorn. And when the kids are old enough, let’s sit them together on the sofa and screen City Lights and Stage Coach and The Best Years of Our Lives and On The Waterfront and Midnight Cowboy and Five Easy Pieces and The Last Picture Show and Raging Bull and Schlinder’s List… so that they can understand how the human condition can be captured by this amalgam of light and sound and literature we call the cinema.  - Tom Hanks

Sorry… but THIS is blasphemy… Ledger’s Joker is so fucking superior to Loki…

 They’re two totally different characters in different franchises and different stories played by different actors with very different styles. It’s not really fair to say that one’s better than the other. They’re both fantastic performances by two incredible actors….I personally think they’re both amazing, but in very different ways for different reasons.

But, the fact that they’re different (which is arguable) is completely irrelevant to the photoset. It’s not asking you to say they’re equal, nor is it just shoving two comic book villains together for no reason. It’s drawing a parallel between two incredibly similar situations; the villain detained and being completely calm about it because they know more that the other characters, which tells us that there’s more to know. It creates this dramatic irony that, tied with the direct eye contact overall look of the shot, creates a completely unsettling and poignant few seconds of cinema. (And I’m super baffled that the person who posted this even drew this parallel. It’s the kind of observation you wish you’d made yourself. I swear this is one of my favourite posts on tumblr)
