I think it’s interesting to look at a moment from a movie or show or something and go “in real life, it would actually happen like this” (for example, explaining how ace attorney cases would actually go down in a real courtroom) but the second you start acting like something being unrealistic for the sake of the plot is inherently a bad thing then I kill you I kill you I kill you

it’s all about VERISIMILITUDE, not realism !!! a detail or plot-point may be unrealistic by the standards of our world, but as long as it makes sense in the established context of the fictional world that it takes place in, then it’s NOT A BAD THING !!!

I hate the term “unalive” unless we’re talking about the thing Ned the Piemaker does after alive againing someone

The Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers dir. Peter Jackson, 2002

The fires of Isengard will spread. And the woods of Tuckburough and Buckland will burn. And all that was once green and good in this world will be gone. There won’t be a Shire, Pippin.DOMINIC MONAGHAN as Merry Brandybuck in THE LORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY 2001 - 2003 | dir. Peter Jackson

CATE BLANCHETT as GALADRIEL

“But to some one I must now entrust my people that I leave behind, to rule them in my place. Which of you will stay?” No man spoke. “Is there none whom you would name? In whom do my people trust?” “In the House of Eorl,” answered Hama. “But Eomer I cannot spare, nor would he stay,” said the king; “and he is the last of that House.” “I said not Eomer,” answered Hama. “And he is not the last. There is Eowyn, daughter of Eomund, his sister. She is fearless and high-hearted. All love her. Let her be as lord to the Eorlingas, while we are gone.”

“It shall be so,” said Theoden. “Let the heralds announce to the folk that the Lady Eowyn will lead them!”

          Where is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing?            They have passed like rain on the mountain, like wind in the meadow.             The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.                                                How did it come to this?
