Everything Is A Hoax!: Khan's Real Identity -

Star Trek Into Darkness takes place in 2259. “Khan” says that he’s 300 years old. 300 years before 2259 is 1959, the same year the chicken-nosed aliens from Krankor tried to invade Beaver Falls, Japan. In Star Trek II, “Khan” describes himself as being a “prince, with power over millions.” In Into Darkness, he defeats an entire platoon of Klingons without a scratch, and Uhura shoots him a half dozen times without managing to stun him. It’s almost like her weapon is useless against him. He wears a cape in Into Darkness, was described as being of Asian descent in Space Seed, and is capable of controlling a spaceship with minimal or no crew on board.

My conclusion?

“Khan” is really Prince of Space!

Which puts the Enterprise crew in the position of the Chicken-Men of Krankor. Good chunks of Khan’s dialogue could be summarized as “YOUR WEAPONS HAVE NO EFFECT ON ME.”

I love Richard Dawson’s face in this. Absolutely wonderful. Ugh I’ll love the poster forever for putting this up. LOVE IT.

I really really hate it when people pair up Mina and Dracula BECAUSE IT COMPLETELY DISREGARDS THE POINT OF THE BOOK AND MINA AND HARKER ARE OTP MATERIAL

It also completely disregards the fact that Dracula fucking victimizes and may or may not have actually

This post is like sunshine. THANK GOD! I FOUND SOMEONE ELSE WHO DOESN”T SHIP IT!

Dude, Harker is like the best thing ever. He goes to Transylvania as a job before getting married to get some more money for him and his Mina. Then while he’s there, he’s thinking about Mina and worrying about her as things start to get bad. Then he escapes Castle Dracula (which was a near impossible feat) to get back to England and warn Mina and co. But he loses his memory but he STILL KNOWS TO GO TO ENGLAND.

shit of that’s not true love I don’t know what is. People just don’t give Harker enough credit.

SORRY TO HIJACK YOUR POST BUT

all this is A+ and I just felt the need to add that Jonathan- who has had more personal, up-close experiences with vampires than anyone else of the group, who absolutely loathes vampires, who believes they’re completely soulless monsters- is willing to become a vampire to be with Mina. I am completely baffled by how that has never made it into an adaptation because ???? ??? ow my heart

and if you feel really masochistic, there’s always the “I too may need such pity” scene where Jonathan collapses sobbing to the floor and buries his face in mina’s skirt, or when Van Helsing suggests he bring Mina with him to the castle and Jonathan promptly freaks out, and don’t get me started on mina through all this or this post will never end

basically the harkers are so OTP it is physically painful

(also jonathan has a sense of humor i mean come on he makes fun of van helsing’s eyebrows he’s a BABE)

Okay, totally reblogging this twice in a row, because Jonathan is so fantastic and the Harkers are so in love and this explains it perfectly and just al ksjetoiajwerto aoijsdkgjfaodfjkgoapiejrtpoai ejfg

PLUS DRACULA IN NOT SO MANY WORDS RAPED AND VIOLATED MINA.

EXACTLY. IF I COULD REBLOG ONE POST OVER AND OVER FOREVER THIS WOULD BE IT.

And on top of that, he murdered her best friend, kidnapped, tortured, and tried to kill the love of her life, and is trying to kill the rest of her friends and take over her country.

Jonathan is kind to Mina, respects her, sacrifices for her, and that’s why she loves him, along with the fact that HE ISN’T A SOULLESS, MASS-MURDERING, SADISTIC MEGALOMANIAC. FOR PETE’S SAKE.

“My medications make me easier to deal with. They don’t interfere with my creativity or turn me into a zombie or dull my real personality. They help me connect with people, allow me to stay calm when situations seem overwhelming, and help keep my thoughts from racing out of control. They help me leave the house when I’m scared to. They help.” — Chris Gethard, “Why I Love My Meds” on VICE (via onlylogan)

Lucy to Mina (regarding Seward) (Dracula, Chapter V)

Translation: Your hobbies are stenography and memorizing freaking train-tables, so when I met this socially awkward phonograph enthusiast, I sorta thought of you.

Welp. This is probably my new favorite Dracula post of all time.

werewolfapocalypse asked: (I know I'm late but) Dean Winchester

That’s cool. I’m about a season and a half behind on Supernatural (not that I wasn’t liking season 7, I just got sidetracked by other other things) so keep that in mind.

OTP: Destiel. I’m pretty casual about it, but still I agree it’s a pretty nifty dynamic. And, y’know, Dean/Impala, which is really everyone’s OTP in the end, right?

BrOTP: Sam&Dean. Really, the brotp to end all brotp. Also, as of recent, Dean&Charlie.

OT3: (I’ve mentioned before I’m bad at OT3s) Maybe Dean/Cas/Jo (in an alternate universe where we’re allowed to have nice things).

NOTP: Sam/Dean. As an intense, intense brotherly relationship, yeah, but not, like, sexual. Just… yeah. I’ve tried, but I can’t do it.

Thanks!
