jw, why don’t you like tv!alec?

okay i will be honest and admit that most of the time i’m just bitter because godfrey gao isn’t Magnus anymore. but if it was just that then i’m pretty sure i could learn to appreciate hsj as magnus, but it has been 6 episodes and it just doesn’t work for me. i can’t feel the chemistry between him and matt (admittedly the chemistry between godfrey & kevin is not that great either) and i have A LOT of problems with the way they write Alec’s character in the show. Matt sure is nice to look at but i feel like he is too much of a confident straight man to successfully portray the closted self-conscious Alec, his acting is not convincing to me.
So in short, i’m not very excited about the casting, i don’t like the characterization and the script and the acting is lacking, that’s why.

Did Isabelle’s interaction with Robert make you uncomfortable for some reason or is it just me

uncomfortable as in ‘why the fuck did they made Robert the better parent of the two and made Maryse the bad guy when it’s supposed to be the opposite?’, then yes

stop watching shadowhunters if you don’t like it !!!! continuing to hate and post stupid shit on your blog will not change anything !!! you’re irrelevant !!! get a life for fucks sake

man, all these anon hate gives me life lol

And as you said, sent me stupid anon hate won’t not change what i want to do with my blog either so how about YOU get a life and stop following/reading a blog who clearly hate your precious show and even clearly stated that in the blog description huh?

I agree with most of your points but the nourishment rune is in the codex

Oh really? But even if there is, my point still stands. Unfortunately, just because it’s in the book doesn’t mean it makes sense.

For someone who hates Shadowhunters you sure seem to talk a lot about it.. the hate consists of most of your blog. Pathetic. LOLOLOL you sad sad ignorant person :( I feel sorry that you have to hate something that you can’t control at all but hey ignorance is bliss.

so yeah, whatever you said anon, whatever you said lol

why does everyone call sh progressive but they made izzy, the latina, the most oversexualized character (i’m fine with her sexualizing herself but they made her the MOST sexualized and latinas are always hypersexualized when they get any bit of representation) they made that simon and camille scene non-consensual and didn’t talk about how fucked up it actually was and probably more but i don’t watch i’ve only seen some clips so idk what else but like ?? it’s not that progressive chill

well, i can’t say i expect much from a producer whose first description of Emeraude is ‘very, very sexy’ and had said she is ‘very nice to look at’ straight to her face in front of the entire comic con panel (i HATE McG, in case some of you didn’t know). and if we want to there are a lot of other things that can be said about this show, for example the fact that almost every characters that has been racebended (Luke, Camille, Maureen) are or will be Downworlders or the fact that Alec has just been outed without his permission in the lastest episode etc honestly i don’t think these things were written on purposes, just not very well thought. They tried, i would give them that, but i think they still need to put more efforts into it. This is not the first time things like this happened on tumblr though. Take sense8 for example, tumblr went crazy when it first came out and even now, even though there are so many problematic things about it :

Hey so I started watching shadowhunters with my /homophobic/ mom without reading the books. We’ve only watched the first two and Ive seen some things on tumblr–should I not let her watch the 3rd episode? Like is there something that happens?

there is nothing going on in episode 3, and i mean literally NOTHING. Just an entire episode of people talking nonsense and no plot-moving, so i guess it’s safe to watch it with your mom? However there are a lot of straight people making out and an implied sex scene, just so you know what to expect.

I never know what is happening in this show because there’s no consistency in the plot and not to mention everyone is mumbling

tell me about it, anon, tell me about it

Replacing Harry with Godrey, or Dom with Jamie or whatever is so fucking rude. I get that you don’t like the show or the cast, but don’t disrespect the current cast because your still bitter about the movies getting cancelled. That’s just so rude especially since the cast worked really hard to make this show for the fans

and you’re telling me this because? it’s not like i’m the person who made all that edits :
and you know what’s the most annoying things about books being turned into movie/tv show? people are not allowed to use their imagination on the characters anymore, because now we have to use the actors for edits otherwise there will be butthurt people like you sending this kind of stupid messages to us :
and you know what, you got a tv show, so if you want to see the actors as the characters, go watch it and leave us alone. It’s not like the actors have so much free time like you to go on tumblr and see if they’re being replaced on edits :

(the last anon, about godfrey gao and hsj) okay, sorry i misinterpreted what you meant about fact :)

hey it’s okay 🙂 language can be confusing sometimes and it’s not like i’m very good at explaining things in english
