Someone needs to do an analysis on the way the Kung Fu Panda movies use old-fashioned vs. modern language ("Panda we meet at last"/"Hey how's it going") and old-fashioned vs. modern settings (forbidden-city-esque palaces/modern-ish Chinese restaurant) to indicate class differences in their characters, and how those class differences create underlying tensions and misunderstandings.

#This is neither a criticism nor a compliment of that artistic choice #I just think it's really interesting #Like even looking at the Five: #Tigress talks in an older style than the others because she was mainly raised at the Jade Palace #While Mantis talks like Joe-schmo off the street because he *was* a streetfighter and an ordinary guy #Shifu and even Tai Lung talk like they're from an old-fashioned novel or kung fu movie #Po talks like a modern guy you'd meet working in a twenty-first century family restaurant #Part of Tigress's initial disdain for him in the first movie is clearly because she considers him to be low-class/a commoner #(And therefore an intruder into the world of the Jade Palace and the rest of the Kung Fu masters which appears to be semi-noble). #Shen looks genuinely off-put and disgusted when he has to respond to Po's greeting with a “...hey.” #And when Po wants to appear more legitimate as a warrior he adopts a more “legendary”/old-fashioned way of speaking. #In the aesthetic language of KFP old fashioned=noble/upper class and modern=common/lower class. #This translates entirely naturally—I think especially to an American audience—but it is wild once you notice it #Because you realize: “Hang on—shouldn't *all* these characters be talking like they're living in the medieval era?” #“And what does it mean that they're not? What is the movie attempting to convey with this—probably entirely subconscious—artistic choice?” #kung fu panda

star wars by silm logic

for the silm-sw dual citizens:

I was wondering what would happen if star wars (particularly tbb bc that's the currently-releasing bit of star wars) adhered to silm logic:

Hunter is the local leader of a hidden city (Pabu)

Omega is the heir

Rex is the overall leader of a warring people (clone rebellion)

Hemlock is the local leader of a branch of the Forces of Evil

Palpatine is the overall Enemy

so therefore

Rex and Echo gather an army of escaped clones. They rescue Cody or Wolffe from the Empire. Song and fire are greatly involved.

Themes of rising hope are invoked as they make a stand against the Empire. The clone rebellion grows further.

They are initially victorious and manage to rescue the clone prisoners from Tantiss with few casualties. Hemlock is ousted and flees to the heart of the Empire (but his operation will return in time)

Echo goes to check on the Batch on Pabu and ask them to ally with him and Rex in the upcoming battle.

They march on Coruscant. Things suddenly go disastrously wrong. Cody is killed in battle. Rex faces Palpatine in single combat.

Rex dies tragically.

Eagles.

Echo tells Hunter about the battle. They are delayed on their way and attempt to ride to the rescue. The Batch arrives just after the deaths. Echo is sad.

Pabu is betrayed while the Batch is on Coruscant.

Pabu is invaded by the Empire. Hemlock subjugates the people into his weird clone experimentation program.

Dragons.

The Batch returns to destroyed/invaded Pabu and is unable to intervene.

While attempting to protect their city most of the Batch dies.

Echo is very sad.

Hunter is captured and killed in front of Omega.

Omega escapes and swears an Oath mourns the Batch.

Echo is broken by grief for the ghosts of his past and vanishes.

Omega later becomes a Rebellion leader, carrying the memories of the failed clone rebellion and the haven of Pabu with her.

Echo fades/dies on some random planet as the forgotten remnant of the GAR/Clone rebellion.

*Gasp!* A romance novel acknowledged the existence of aro people!

In classic cliché fashion, the protagonist begins by saying he doesn't ever really get feelings for anybody - essentially describing an aro experience, though he's presumably allo. BUT! Instead of following the cliché by then having him meet "the right person" and finally fall in love, this author had someone immediately clock the aro vibes of that statement and directly ask the protagonist if he's aromantic! And then, instead of just perfunctorily checking the box for acknowledging aro people exist and having him say no and move on, the author has him explain that what he means by "I don't get feelings" is: "I had my heart broken and have since actively avoided developing romantic feelings at all costs" - Not: "I've never experienced romantic attraction before this one special person"

#finally some good fucking food #aromantic #romance novels #Sarah talks at the internet #i feel like I'm starving for scraps with the way this minimal acknowledgement seems so meaningful to me #this is helping to heal the wound in my soul from that one hallmark Christmas movie that put me off the entire genre #the benefits of consuming queer media #sometimes they actually acknowledge that people like me exist #like the one KJ Charles novella where instead of getting smutty like usual the protagonists both turn out to be ace 💜 #The book is #Hijinks With A Hellhound #Louisa Masters #if anyone's curious #though don't read it - or the rest of the series it's in - if all you're after is aro representation #this moment was delightful because it was unexpected #the books at large very much center on falling in love and fucking #tag rant

I looked at Shin Yoosung and Lee Gilyoung and spoke to them. "In that case, let's go in." "Nope. Ahjussi, you stay here and relax." "Excuse me?" "We told you, Sun Wukong is supposed to ride the bus and that's it." "But…" "Hah-ah… I really didn't want to do this but seriously now." Shin Yoosung held the rosary beads and began reciting something. "Prajna-paramita-hrdaya-KimDokja. Don't-try-anything-unnecessary-and-stay-put-sutra…" …Wha? [Tang Sanzang has recited the 'Constrictive Sutra (緊箍咒)'!] [Item, 'Constrictive Headband (緊箍兒)' is reacting to it!] I was immediately overcome with pain akin to my head shattering into pieces and blacked out on the spot.

Okay, yeah, they 2000% know it's him. 😂

And, as always, our oblivious squid has no idea what's going on with his companions.

Dokja, they literally said your name.

Granted, his obliviousness may actually be a big blessing in this case because we don't know how the vow activates. Do they have to announce that they know it's him or does Dokja have to realize they know or is he being watched right now for signs that they know it's him or...

people really do not know what they're talking about when it comes to Elizabeth Woodville's social status, huh?

#yes Elizabeth was without a doubt considered too low-born to be queen #no she was not a commoner and nobody actually called her that during her life (so I'm not sure why people are claiming that they did?) #Elizabeth's social status was not a problem in itself; it was a problem in the context of queenship and marrying into royalty #Context is important in this and for literally everything else when it comes to analyzing history. Any discussion is worthless without it. #obviously pop culture-esque articles claiming that she was 'a commoner who captured the king's heart' are wrong; she wasn't #But emphasizing that ACTUALLY she was part of the gentry with a well-born mother and just leaving it at that as some sort of “GOTCHA!” #is equally if not more irresponsible and entirely irrelevant to discussions of the actual time period we're studying. #Elizabeth *was* considered unworthy and unacceptable as queen precisely because of her lower social status #her father and brother had literally been derided as social-climbers by Salisbury Warwick and Edward himself just a few years earlier #the Woodvilles' marriage prospects clearly reflected their status (and 'place') in society: EW herself had first married a knight and all #siblings married within the gentry to people of a similar status. compare that to the prestigious marriages arranged after EW became queen #Elizabeth having a lower social status was not 'created' by propaganda against her; it fueled and shaped propaganda against her #that's a huge huge difference; it's irresponsible and silly to conflate the two as I've seen a recent tumblr post cavalierly do #like I said she was considered too low-born to be queen long before any of the propaganda Warwick Clarence or Richard put out against her #and the fact that Elizabeth was targeted on the basis of her social status was in itself novel and unprecedented #no queen before her was ever targeted in such a manner; Clearly Elizabeth was considered notably 'different' in that regard #(and was quite literally framed as the enemy and destroyer of 'the old royal blood of this realm' and all its actual 'inheritors' like..) #ngl this sort of discussion always leaves a bad taste in my mouth #because it's not like England and France (et all) are at war or consider each other mortal enemies in the 21st century #both are in fact western european imperialistic nations who've been nothing but a blight to the rest of the world including my own country #yet academic historians clearly have no problem contextualizing the xenophobia that medieval foreign queens faced as products of their time #and sympathizing with them accordingly (Eleanor of Provence; Joan of Navarre; Margaret of Anjou; etc)(at least by their own historians) #Nor were foreign queens the “worst” targets of xenophobia: that was their attendants or in times of war commoners or soldiers #who actually had to bear the brunt of English aggression #queens were ultimately protected and guaranteed at least a veneer of dignity and respect because of their royal status #yet once again historians and people have no problem contextualizing and understanding their difficulties regardless of all this #so what is the problem with contextualizing the classism *Elizabeth* faced and understanding *her* difficulties? #why is the prejudice against her constantly diminished & downplayed? (Ive never even seen any historian directly refer to it as 'classism') #after all it was *Elizabeth* who was more vulnerable than any queen before her due to her lack of powerful foreign or national support #and Elizabeth who faced a form of propaganda distinctly unprecedented for queens. it SHOULD be emphasized more.

[jayswing101]

Hi hello I am currently rewatching Guardian and I think I've had a revelation. Has someone else probably figured this out before? Almost definitely. But I have connected the dots and am excited so I'm writing about it anyways. Spoilers for basically the whole drama ahead

So. Episode 5, there's the resolution of Wu Tianen and Wu Xiaojun's case, and Heipaoshi brings them to Dixing. After Shen Wei vanishes the guards who were sent to kill Wu Tianen and Wu Xiaojun, he asks Wu Tianen what happened to the team he sent up to search for the Hallows right? Wu Tianen says they were attacked by youchu, and he was knocked unconscious. When he woke up, everyone else was dead.

Except they weren't. Shen Wei says that the captain of the mission survived, only to later be shot and killed before Shen Wei can meet with him. Shen Wei then says "pity it's another dead end," and Wu Tianen drops a bombshell we don't even realise is a bombshell. He says the captain's wife was pregnant at the time of their failed mission.

The captain may have living descendants.

The next scene? Zhou Weiwei getting out of bed and disappearing out of her bathroom. Which implies that mirror!Zhou Weiwei is that captain's child. And, at the end of episode 6, Shen Wei and mirror!Zhou Weiwei talk and it's confirmed - the captain of the Hallows retrieval mission was her father.

But who was he? Why isn't he given a name? Just "my competent subordinate," or "the mission captain." Why aren't we told his name?

Because It's Zhang Shi.

His power is similar to mirror!Zhou Weiwei's, where they can both "be" someone else. He can possess people and take over their bodies that way, she can take on the appearance of anyone who offers her a face through the mirror. They're connected powers in a way, and we know from Shen Wei and Ye Zun that family members sometimes have similar powers to each other (Shen Wei's learning from observing vs Ye Zun's taking through absorbing/devouring) — so it makes sense.

And then there's also what Shen Wei tells Wu Tianen, that the captain was shot and killed. Except it's kinda implied that regular bullets don't work on Dixingren, that only dark energy bullets can hurt them. Who is the only person we know of, other than Zhao Yunlan, who has used the dark energy gun? Zhao Xinci. Who killed Zhang Shi's previous host body? Zhao Xinci.

As we find out in episode 31, Zhao Xinci shot and killed Zhang Shi's host with the dark energy gun. That's how he ends up becoming Zhang Shi's current host.

Zhang Shi is also one of like two Dixingren we see Zhao Xinci actually shoot in the drama too, which also adds to the likelihood of Zhang Shi being the captain of Wu Tianen's mission and mirror!Zhou Weiwei's father.

The only missing piece is connecting Zhang Shi to that mission to retrieve the Hallows. Heipaoshi tells mirror!Zhou Weiwei that her father was his subordinate, and that he had secret information that he never had a chance to report. Hearing that, mirror!Zhou Weiwei remembers her father mumbling: "山河水镇天南一方。"

The subtitles on YouTube (before we lost those videos rip) never translated that line, and I couldn't understand any of the words last time I watched Guardian, so I never caught it before. But I'm like 85% sure that what mirror!Zhou Weiwei says roughly translates to: "The mountains and rivers of the South are protected."

But what does that even mean???

Well. In the novel, the four Holy Tools are used to seal the four pillars that hold up the sky. The Longevity Dial for the East, the Ink Brush of Virtue for the West, the Awl of Mountains and Rivers for the North.

And the Lantern of the Guardian for the South.

That Guardian Lantern is that final piece, the thing that makes everything click.

Hidden at the SID for so long, no one even knows it's there. I think Zhang Shi was successful in finding one of the Hallows when Shen Wei sent that team to Haixing ~20 years pre-canon. I think he found the Guardian Lantern, and kept it hidden even from Zhao Xinci for all those years, hid it inside a box at the SID where no one would think to look into it, but where it would be safe from anyone else that was also looking for the Hallows.

And he succeeded in keeping the Guardian Lantern safe. No one knew where it was until episode 34, when Ye Zun accidentally activates the Hallows and the wormhole to Ye Olde Haixing sends Zhao Yunlan on an expected holiday.

In conclusion: Zhang Shi was the captain of the mission to find the Hallows with Wu Tianen, and mirror!Zhou Weiwei's father. Contrary to Wu Tianen's beliefs, Zhang Shi wasn't killed by youchu, he survived the mission and went on to find the Guardian Lantern, which he kept hidden somewhere safe until Zhao Xinci killed him. At that point, to continue protecting the lantern, he hid it at the SID, where it was overlooked and kept safe for years, until Ye Zun sets off the Hallows and Zhao Yunlan gets yeeted through time.

And the only way any of it makes sense is if you have the novel context to know that each one of the Hallows is tied to a cardinal point

#guardian #guardian meta #guardian lantern #镇魂 guardian #the hallows #i have connected the dots #i didn't think it was entirely relevant to the post but putting it here for anyone curious about my (attempted) translation of that phrase #'山河水镇天南一方' #山 (shān) = mountain #河水 (héshui3) = river，river water #镇 (zhèn) = to guard，protect (the same zhen as in the title of the novel and the drama: ‘镇魂’) #天 (tiān) = sky，heaven (in reference to the sky pillars/pillars of heaven from the novel?) #南一方 (nán yīfāng) = southern region #so literally: mountain river protected sky/heaven southern area -> the mountains and rivers of the south are protected #literally that one line is the thing that made everything click into place #which is funny bc it's so out of place in the drama??? #I'm pretty sure it's leftover from the original script before they changed everything to aliens and dark energy and time travel #bc it doesn't make any sense with the rest of the drama canon but it ties in so perfectly with the novel #anyways. thank you for coming to this lecture on my favourite show #i hope you enjoyed your time here #have a good night or very early morning wherever you are (it's 4am here so if my translation is way off I'm blaming it on that) #jay jabbers

im trying i swear im trying SO hard not to be bitchy about legends and lattes getting finalized for the hugo but . okay the hugo is a prize for science fiction/speculative fiction/fantasy fiction. and words mean things and essentially this is putting a very plot-lite romance novel with a fantasy setting up against political spec fic and like, books being entered in a contest that the left hand of darkness once won. which isn't to say that the contest itself is like, sacred ground - starship troopers, 1960 - basically heinlen's treatise on why the military is necessary to whip the youths into shape - like, it's a seventy-year-old science fiction prize, there's gonna be a lot of unlikeable books on there, actually. and its not to say that lighter books or books riding a wave of hype haven't won it before (harry potter won it in 2001)...it's just. it's a weird collection this year, is all, and the contest has skewed wider in its interpretation of spec fic in the past ten-twenty years, which i'm not upset about! words mean things but im also a huge proponent of thee two-time hugo winner UKLG's thoughts on genre. genre is as mutable as the clouds. we call things 'spec fic' often because they're difficult to categorize. but, and i'm saying this huge long preface because i genuinely don't want to seem like a wet blanket, but it's just...it's the wrong contest for the book. there's been a lot of good sff this year. but that's a romance novel. and also its not hugo levels of good

#like if you liked it. enjoy! do not read the rest of my tags lol #opinions below do not eat #............................. #okay i think this should be enough tags to hide the rest under the readmore but just in case .......... #................... #ok . #but it's entirely plotless and . just my onion. plotless does not equal cozy . and visa versa #cozy books can have very intricate and exciting plots! dozens upon thousands of lite mysteries prove this #plotless books can be as far from cozy as possible - my year of rest and relaxation has next to no driving force and #leaves the reader with a memorable discomforting taste in the mouth #but this book relies entirely on what Types its characters are to sell itself. they are gay and quirky fantasy creatures. #and books with gay and quirky fantasy creatures can also be very good!!! i have read these also!!!! #but this book's gay and quirky fantasy creatures dont even DO anything or have lasting interiority . in my onion #like it just needs MORE to be a hugo novel. it needs depth it needs something more than fleeting comfort and reader-relatability
