Watchmen 2019

you can see lindelof challenging himself at every step. everything he's written up to this becomes natural part of it, building an unprecedented universe of his own where his unmistakeable touches fuse with the vision of everyone working on any individual project or aspect of a project, which only in his case makes me feel better about my blanket disregarding of directors and DP's (despite putting in work) when it comes to tv. (word to composer too, he got another one.)

he's god pulling the strings, and i don't know of any other TV or Film writer who has internalized this to such a degree, on such a refined scale. to brasenly hop right back on his bullshit coming from a show that was intended as reconciliation for the show previous, (which it succeeded at!) full steam ahead right back into unbridled indulgement. all under the same coherent thematic umbrella.

this is a :asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol:black superhero tv show:asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol:!
on hbo!
centering around a whole race war!
regina king is born IN F:pound_symbol::pound_symbol:KING :asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol:VIETNAM:asterisk_symbol::asterisk_symbol: and ends it all on her own john wick.

post netflix disillusionment aside, tv is still very much the best it's ever been right now, allowing shit like this to escalate to where it can actually become a thing that exists, when The Leftovers for all its acclaim was flirting with cancellation for its whole run. these execs are stans now.

you can't heal under a mask angela

regina king for best actress. & i'm talking lifetime achievement, cuz this aint just about theatrics
