It is no coincidence that both Themyscira and Wakanda were hidden societies. They both knew what would happen if white men found them thriving.
AHHHHHH!!!!
The tea is PIPING
The fact that the second that a white guy shows up in Wakanda or Themyscira is the second things start taking a turn for the worse is the single most realistic thing in any superhero fiction because history has proven that yep, that is definitely always the case
truly one of the funniest things about lotr to me is how much hostility
the hobbits, a race of cheerful, fun-loving farm people, bear towards
gandalf for absolutely NO reason except that he kills their chill vibe
the hobbits of the shire whenever they hear gandalf is in town:
In ‘The Resident Patient’, Brett was particularly proud of the scene where he examines the patient’s room, picking up all the clues without saying a word. He referred to it as ‘the Rififi scene’ because it was similar to a sequence in a Jules Dassin film. It is a remarkable scene, especially for modern television, having no dialogue for two-and-a-halfminutes.
And it does epitomise the essence of Sherlock Holmes’s minute investigation of a scene of crime: all those passages that Conan Doyle created describing his detective crawling on the floor, inspecting paintwork with his lens, and scraping dust or cigarette ash into a small envelope for analysis are crystallized in this sequence, and Jeremy Brett knew it.
