jumping on the “humans are space orcs” bandwagon, I’m just imagining what our food must look like to an outsider
like imagine trying to explain that we eat spoiled food. like, sometimes it grows bacteria on accident and we dislike it, but sometimes we deliberately expose it to bacteria so the exact same reaction can happen but for some reason this time we’re okay with it and call it stuff like “wine” and “cheese” and “yogurt”
we eat capsaicin, a natural pesticide and fungicide. and we think adverse reactions to it are so funny that we make videos that are just people eating extremely hot things.
we eat halite, a literal fucking rock, with such frequency that a dish is not considered properly seasoned without it.
i relate to this so much, i forgot about dogs and accidentally shoved my friends terrier off my lap expecting her to gracefully land and walk away, but she just ate shit and looked at me like i was a monster for the rest of the day 😦
man, no matter how good or bad the movie ends up being, the editor of this trailer deserves an award
I’ve seen it twice now in theaters, and the rhythmic and narrative coherence of the whole thing PUMPS ME UP
(especially in contrast to the fucking mess of the Transformers trailer that inevitably followed both times, and consisted solely of loud french horn honks and crashes interspersed occasionally with meaningless overwrought dialogue delivered with zero conviction)
in any case, I’m going to now forever associate that Kanye song with Charlize Theron pummeling a man with a freezer door, and I have no complaints about that
the song is a mashup of personal Jesus by depeche mode and black skinhead by kanye, its on soundcloud by fa$ion $en$e and its called personal yeezus
its so fuckin good y’all
wow first of all I was not expecting this post to blow up, I’m glad other people appreciate good trailer editing
and secondly THANK YOU FOR THE INFO ON THE MASHUP, YESSSS, I’ve had it stuck in my head all week and it is gr9
LOOK MORE INFORMATION & also just the trailer again because nnnnnnnhhh.
on the subject of Humans Are Space Orcs i keep thinking it would be funny if ‘pursuit predator’ humans got together with an ‘ambush predator’ feliform species. and like. humans enjoy walking around with their friends! and the feliforms enjoy huddling in a concealed location with their friends! and it takes all of half an hour for a human to pick up a scarf and make a sling to take their pal with them while they go grab some lunch.
our new friends are like ‘are you sure this isn’t an inconvenience’ and the humans are like ‘are you kidding we do this with terran cats whether they like it or not’
also the team-up of humans and the feliform species gives most herbivore species in the galaxy screaming nightmares because here is a mobile tower that will follow you for 16 hours straight and it’s carrying a bag full of sneaky murder like it’s a baby this is not okay
