CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators

“you make my heart beat in iambic pentameter.”

no you don’t understand shakespeare literally writes to the beat of your heart

  • that’s why shakespearean actors will sometimes pound their chests in time to the words during readings
  • that’s why you use fluctuations in the rhythm to track your character’s emotional state - any irregularities in the scansion are like the character’s heart stuttering or jumping or skipping a beat
  • that’s why when characters share the rhythm - switching off in the middle of a foot - those characters inevitably have an extraordinarily intimate connection

shakespeare fucking writes viscerally, he is literally in your body, and that, my friend, that is why the best shakespearean actors don’t posture and emote

you have to be fucking alive and passionate and electric - it can’t be intellectual, in the end, it has to be about connection and the sweating, cheering, jeering, bleeding masses you’re performing to, because make no mistake, shakespeare may go to lofty heights, but he only works if you’re just as grounded in the earth. he has to be in your body. he has to be in your body.

holy motherfucking shit i love shakespeare so much, get him in your bones, breathe him in, stomp and rage and pine, dadum dadum dadum dadum dadum, it is literally to the beat of your heart

If I remember correctly, this is also why the witches chant in Macbeth is so unnerving; it’s a reverse pentameter. The emphasis is shifted to the first syllable, rather than the second, like in the rest of the play (and in pretty much all the other plays Shakespeare wrote). 

Compare the witches chant to the “to be or not to be” monologue (emphasis in italics):

“double double toil and trouble” vs “to be or not to be”

It’s disarming to hear the chant when you’re in the language of Shakespeare because it in against the inherent rules of the script.

It’s actually not reverse pentameter (that’s the number of feet in the line, not the meter), it’s reverse iambs.

The term for this meter is trochaic, and yeah. It is meant to make us feel uncomfortable. Shakespeare is amazingggggg
