Over-thinker. Easily distracted by shiny things. Oooh. Shiny.
I heard something where they aren’t going to have it subbed until its finished airing.
That’s usually the case for US Netflix but not for most other international Netflix (like with Live or Prison Playbook). Unless it’ll be a sneak attack like Vile City was, which suddenly appeared without any warning about a month after airing.
Ugh. Greedy licensing. Everyone trying to grab a piece of the pie but only ending up smashing it instead and making it impossible for anyone to enjoy it.

WHAT IS THE NEW BONUS DISC I NEED TO KNOW
I love this. Man I would love to see Brenden Fraiser make a comeback.
Late 90′s/early ‘00s Brendan Fraser was something special.
But then the mid-2000′s hit and it was like “where did Brendan’s career go?”
Early 90′s Brendan is fun too, but not peak Fraser.

How much do you love The Mummy and why?
As much as Ardeth Bey enjoys flying on Winston’s plane.
But why? Hmmmm, let me think…
…I don’t really know? I actually didn’t watch it until after I saw The Mummy Returns, because I’m a squeamish sort who doesn’t do well with anything in the realm of “horror,” and the previews made my adolescent self think it would be too scary for me.
But some of my friends were going to see The Mummy Returns so I went along, because I have no spine. And had a great time.
They said I had to see the first movie, but I kept putting it off until a friend got a DVD player for her birthday soon after, and one of her DVDs was the first Mummy movie. So we watched it.
And I fell in love. Why? I dunno. Being in the right place at the right time, a love of old-fashioned adventures, the mix of wit and snark and swashbuckling. And my bizarre sudden crush on Jonathan (and as a result, John Hannah).
This friend also introduced me to the world of online fanfiction when she showed me that she wrote Mummy fanfiction, and my brain went “zomg I can read more things about my favorite characters?!?!?!”
It also became an “in joke” with my friends, a shared source of fun references (remember, this was before tumblr). Like greeting each other from far away by shouting about horses and rivers. It was a teeny zeitgeist of this circle of friends.
So there went a summer of my life, watching this movie repeatedly, crafting my own Mummy fanfiction (my first true foray), and I actually tape-recorded the movie onto an audio cassette so I could listen to it while I was driving or in my room (because I did not have a tv in my room). Yes, I put a tape recorder next to the TV while the VHS tape was playing just so I could have more Mummy in my life.
I still remember where I had to flip the tape. “He’s still… juicy.”
So I’ve adored this movie since high school. It has all the elements I want in a film – adventure, romance, humor, sweeping visuals, an awesome heroine who I still secretly want to be – all wrapped up in a satisfying package.
It’s been nearly twenty years (well, less than that, since my introduction was in 2001), but I adore this film, it will forever have a spot on my “top 10″ list, and naysayers can fight me.
tldr: got dragged into it by friends, but stayed willingly.
Did Seventeen release something too?
Yeah, they released a MV the exact same time as Suju.

replied to your post “While finding gifsets to queue, I’ve decided my fave reviews rn are…”
I find that that first comment is more realistic that a magic manhole.
I’m exaggerating a little bit but everything about the drama seems clear it’s a fun “fairytale romcom” (like most romcoms are, tbh), and it actually felt like the plot could probably fit into a romcom movie that, for the record, I would totally watch.
I think I’m just extra grumpy because I’ve been going through my email and dealing with a totally unrelated show but similar comments where real life isn’t real enough and people making judgements about characters without going “oh hey maybe they’re gonna learn some lessons in the next sixteen hours and make some positive changes in their lives, like, y’know maaaayyyyyyybe the writer has some character development planned or something, which is crazy talk, I know, but just maybe it could happen.”
Then again I’ve been away for tumblr so much except to queue gifsets that maybe I’ve forgotten how to talk about dramas. 
Sookyung noona foreva! Btw did you hear about Let’s Eat 3?
What? Who’s Dae Young gonna fall in love with now?
Hopefully it’s just more fermented and has a higher proof now >.<
It smells and tastes okay, and the can didn’t look iffy, either. So I think I’m safe. Hopefully. It was just too much of a “THIS IS NOW SUMMER!!!!” kind of a day for whiskey and the only thing I have at home to mix with Pimm’s is water.
