Old Guard - Tumblr Posts
You know, I wasn’t really feeling the old guard for everything it was hyped up to be. And then I saw THESE TWO IN THIS SCENE
And well...promptly died and fell in love with these two immortal gays.

In MM couples onscreen and especially in fanfic, are the POCs almost always shown to be dominant? Idk, just a random thought
Totally see that, thanks for sharing!!
I guess if the dominant person isn't tall, then they'll have a domineering personality. Like Crowley in Good Omens, and Mickey in Shameless. But then, the question is imo, are the domineering personalities and taller actors chosen for the POC character who's part of a MM couple?
I'm basing this off of a personal childhood experience, just to give this whole possible dynamic some context. I'm brown-skinned, and a very well-meaning art teacher said to me, 'Why don't you draw your character as darker.' I went with it, but what my friend next to me did next really shocked me. She said, 'I want to make my character tougher, so I'll give her dark skin.' He didn't correct her, nor did I. So up until the age of 12 (she was 13 btw), I had never thought people could attribute personality traits to skin tone, and much less being "tough" to being brown-skinned. I'm interested, therefore, to see if this might be the case in the media when it comes to interracial MM couples, or if I'm reading too much into things. ☺️

Honestly we need to bring back foundation movie nights because I need to have an excuse to show Dr. Kondraki the movie "Old Guard"
Director Ghost showed me it and now I have goddamn brain rot
Your Zukaang art is amazing
thank you so much for the appreciation, love 🥺 (also, i took a peek on your side blog, how fitting it is that i replied this around maghrib to isha. and you certainly remind me to watch old guard with my boyfie since i missed it last year!)
