Crazy how Taylor debuted with a song with a theme of when you see this I hope you think of me. And now everyone thinks of her. For everything. Literally even things that don’t involve her. Lmao.
things heated rivalry is proof audiences want that isn’t just “more hockey shows”
1) investment in creatives from places other than the US
2) opportunities for breakout actors so we can actually discover them
3) authentic! queer! stories!
4) adaptations of lesser known books
Hans isn’t oblivious to Henry’s flirtations, he’s on a whole new level of denial. Like yeah he SAID he cares about me more than I know, but like, he MUST mean in a very heterosexual brotherly manner, yes? There’s no way he’s into men, what’re the odds we’d BOTH be into men ha ha
its actually rly funny that all the jokes unironically became true and hollywoods takeaway from heated rivalrys success is more straight sports romances rather than queer stories with queer directors at the helm
the success of heated rivalry should have indicated that we actually just want more queer stories and it wasn’t really about the hockey but it seems like maybe that wasn’t clear
that one tweet that said hollywood will see the success of heated rivalry and come to the conclusion that people want to see more hockey couldn’t have been more right
when a girl hits on ilya at a club and he’s like “omg you shouldn’t be talking to me, my man is crazy, he’ll kill you” meanwhile shane is at home eating wild caught salmon with organic brown rice watching a documentary on how hockey sticks are made
Love Story was the song that launched Taylor’s career worldwide in the most spectacular way in 2008. If she had followed her co-writers advice and left it, we might not have one of the most recognisable and beloved Taylor Swift songs by the fans and the public worldwide even now
this is one of her best speeches about her craft, and it’s only natural that it came from a contagiously self-assured 36 year old powerhouse in the business of human emotion, who has nothing left to prove, but so much to explore. i’ve never felt luckier to look up to someone
