My Eclectic Collection

This shit had:

Couples that actually had chemistry

A mysterious male protagonist who is ACTUALLY SWEET AS FUCK AND NOT A FUCKING CREEP. Honestly, Max Evans proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that a male romantic lead can be attractive and compelling without being toxic and ‘damaged’

Teens doing stupid, realistic teen shit in an appalling attempt to keep aliens a secret

Cops as the antagonist the ENTIRE way through (minus the literally one good cop who has a redemption arc and basically only stays in the job so he can cover up their shit and is universally mocked and looked down on by other cops)

Reincarnation/soulmate trope where those involved turn around and say “no thanks. I’m in love with this person right here and destiny can fuck itself”

HEALTHY COMMUNICATION!!! Like, not at all times, but waaaaaaay more than we tend to get in media even now, especially teen media. These kids actually talk to each other when they have an issue the majority of the time and soooooo many misunderstandings are cut off at the knees by it. And they RESPECT EACH OTHERS BOUNDARIES!

Entirely non-romantic friendships between guys and girls. Like, not even the hint of a crush

A killer title sequence that i’ve literally watched on its own before

My boy Michael, who is the most pitiful, assholish, adorable example of a Poor Little Meow Meow ever to avoid reaching tumblr sexy man status. This man stood outside the window of the girl he had a thing for in the pouring rain and gave her puppy dog eyes until she let him in, dried him off and spooned him all night while he cried himself to sleep

BLOOD TIES REWATCH

Blood and Music Moodboard

Henry Fitzroy (Blood Ties 2007)

There is such a lack of Tom Cruise!Lestat so I put this up as a reminder.

Tom Cruise didn't get a TVL sequel so he put it all into Stacey Jaxx 🥵💯💥.

But no worries Sam Reid is on the job. 🥳
