#in a REALLY FUCKING PRETTY MOVIE

[rustedhills]

Disney, releasing Wish: "so it's all about legacy--the new generation surpassing the old, overcoming the evils perpetuated by them, relinquishing singular power... and there's an old man in a tower, uh... animal sidekick, i guess..., ah... magic...?

Miyazaki, just out of frame, sledgehammer raised:

#the boy and the heron #not tagging wish 'cause i'm being a little acidic #this isn't to be negative in the slightest--I really respect both films--but it's interesting to see how visceral boy+H gets with its story #what evils have to be rejected and what they represent--and how characters and the world suffer from those evils--as well as how the whole #'rejecting' part goes. in terms of animation powerhouses discussing their legacies - disney and miyazaki both - I find it interesting that #one makes a pretty safe and nostalgic movie about imagination and dreams; the other is a long trudge through the land of the dead. #b+h is a hard watch - and a look at the legacy of a man questioning his whole purpose in the world - after his cultural touchstones #have long passed by. Mahito needs to understand his grief to keep living--but if he drowns in it he'll just continue the cannibalistic and #violent world of his granduncle. how the hell do you make art when the trauma of your entire life has colored it forever? How can anyone? #maybe after a while... it's time to detonate that damn tower and keep living. #this is to say #if you have enough money to make whatever you want #Make It Fucking Count

Thinking about how much Sokka idolized his father, even though he left him and his sister alone with too much responsibility, time and time again. Thinking about how he based so many of his decisions upon making his father proud, and gaining his approval. Thinking about Sokka growing up and having a child of his own, loving and protecting them with his whole heart, and wondering how a parent could have left their child in such a dangerous world for years. Thinking about Sokka’s child becoming a teenager but still seeming so young and small, making Sokka realize how much of a child he was when his father left the responsibilities of an adult on his shoulders.

Thinking about how Sokka’s relationship with his father will inevitably erode with time…

#I really hope we get to see more of sokka and katara’s relationship ms with their father in the new movie #I know we all love dadkoda but also…. what he did was pretty fucked up lmao #and I would love to watch the process of Sokka realizing that #sokka #my post #headcanons and stuff

I know you dont care about pesterquest but i wanna know, did you think they wrote eridan well or bad?

bad

#why would he care about shrek hes a hipster #also he cant just casually waltz into a movie theater hed scare the shit out of everyone there #like everyone else on alternia automatically assumes a sea dweller is going to want to kill you #eridans never done anything casually before in his life #even GAMZEE's internal narration goes 'better not stand on the beach for too long #if a sea dweller sees me theyll attack lol' #i know hes been memed to hell and back because hes a pathetic little meow meow but like #objectively eridan was fucking terrifying by alternian standards #even if he isn't actually like that inside he still LOOKED and ACTED the part #and also he did do all those murders yeah #like so many murders #like 'killin is all i evver done practically' levels of murders #vriska says her bodycount is in the 'many thousands' so eridan's deffo up there too #hes like objectively dangerous and scary #and the fact that the team forgot about this when it came to dealing with him pretty famously had disastrous results #anyway heres my eridancore movie rec: Once (2007) #i know 'hipster actually likes mainstream stuff' is a Trope and theres truth to it but like look at me in the eyes #do you really mean to tell me eridan “wizard and magic are stupid and fake but i have 6 wizard statues in my room” ampora #is going to be the hipster that admits that he likes mainstream stuff

#I thought this movie was really cute and charming in a lot of ways #also I love Bruce Campbell's look in this one so much I had to draw him #I wanted to make him really warm to contrast her vampiric appearance which is more or less what they do in the movie #although he's pretty gray #I also like the costume designer's attention to detail like everyone is dressed more or less like they would be at the time they died #and a vampire western is just one of those ideas you pull from a hat that sound insane and are #but anyway charming film! I watched it twice this year! Then what! It's full on youtube so it's easier #I feel like she looked more like the actress in the sketch ALSO her actress played Muffy in April Fools Day????! #I fucking love that movie so much and Muffy is my girl she's like such an insane genius I love her to death #that movie is like a very long Are You Afraid of the Dark episode and this movie is a fairy tale with vampires. Iconic choices honestly #sundown the vampire in retreat #bruce campbell #I usually don't tag actors or actresses but I deserve this one #fanart #artists on tumblr #art #digital art #illustration #my art #digital drawing

leftism leaving peoples bodies the moment people with severe facial/bodily differences exist

#social justice #disability #ableism #leftism #leftist #sorry for posting this randomlt but I really don’t care this shit makes me unbelievably mad. #y’all will go “i love fat ppl i love neurodivergent ppl i love (the widely portrayed positively in media) disabled ppl” #and the moment you see someone your mind already has deemed “ugly” in any way you act up. fuck off you ableist cunt. #i can maybe count with 2 fingers the amount of times people with facial or bodily differences have been portrayed #positively in any media. one was in a kids book that got a movie a few years ago. #and the other was that one pretty poignant David lynch film I THINK. #anything else. it’s fucking garbage and it shows on so many fuckers on this website

hey man. if youre complaining about the actors in the borderlands movie being "too old" for the roles. i wanna remind you that in the trailer alone, for a bl1 based movie, hyperion is branded yellow and white instead of red and black, tina is the same age shes supposed to be in 2, krieg has escaped hyperion when jack isnt even supposed to be ruling yet, and fuckin. mouthpiece from bl3 was there. just off the top of my head. i could find more lore inconsistencies if i tried

frankly i think the only issue with the casting is how many of them are zionists and the fact that theyre trying to make roland a comedic character played by kevin hart when hes supposed to be the straight man. like. come on. roland is the only even slightly normal one out of the first games vault hunters (i really dont care that much at the end of the day, thats just my main gripe besides the zionism)

#borderlands #daring to main tag this #i just think its stupid to complain about the ages of the actors when. theyre already fucking the lore up severely anyway #besides. jamie lee curtis seems like she plays tannis REALLY well #id gladly take actors who are too old for their roles than too young #and imma be real. ill take lilith looking like anything other than a generic video game girl im sorry #also imma be real if you ever expected a borderlands movie to be good youre delusional #the games writing has always been pretty bad #mr anthony bitch and dameon clarke were what carried so much of the story people remember #and they arent helping in this movie at all #this isnt about anyone in specific btw ive just seem multiple people complaining about it #and i think its stupid

#bonus extra forms under the cut #burmy #i guess it's not technically a Bonus but it is three images in one post. anyway why is trash-form burmy pink #i never understood this. i'd hear about trash form and go wow it must be like. black and brown with marks of trash all over it and cool #like trubbish. but they just made it pretty pink and cute. how? why? why would a creature that lives in the trash become bright pink #“that hot pink bitch is named breakfast” et cetera #i dunno. whenever i see burmy i think of that one clip from detective pikachu where it's just like #burmy! burmymymy! burmy… burmy :( and pikachu is like WOAH WHAT THE FUCK #i've never played detective pikachu. i should. i probably will go back and play the original once the one on the switch comes out #i saw the movie though. but i don't think that's. anywhere related to the games. to be honest. i also remember going and seeing it in #the theater and it was fucking. me‚ my mom‚ and one other parent/child duo and that's IT. NO one was there in the theater to see it #and we literally just went to go see it on a fuckin. whim. we were driving by‚ looking for something to do‚ and saw that a random theater #was showing detective pikachu. and we just said Fuck It. and it was cool but she kept asking me about every pokémon during the movie #and then it had that really weird ableist villain that was fucked up but the pokémon were cute

Jesus christ, do these losers have nothing better to do with their lives?

#''worst movie ever made'' jesus fucking christ #go outside #get some sun #touch some grass #the marvels is by no means a perfect movie #honestly i consider it to be pretty decent overall #but to call it ''the worst movie ever made''? #really??? #go watch something other than superhero movies you fucking loser

so in the novel william didn't recognize who mike was by his last name but i guess because of some other information he saw in the file?? it's good that they changed it, otherwise it would too confusing and this flows way better but i wonder what he saw there that made him act like that

#really weird and sus as fuck for no reason #i feel like mike is either related to the aftons (which is unlikely tbh) or his family has a history with them (maybe they're the emilys!!) #especially bcs emma tammi (the director of the movie) has been pretty vague about this aspect #i guess we'll see in the sequel #fnaf #mike schmidt #michael schmidt #michael afton #maybe #mike afton #william afton #steve raglan #fnaf movie #fnaf movie novel #fnaf movie novielazation #five nights at freddys #five nights at freddy's

just bc im a lesbian doesnt mean tht i wont at times become deeply entranced with the beauty of male actor or character. it just means i wld rather be locked in a room with a man with a knife than do anything romantic or sexual with one

#NO OFFENCE TO MEN AS PEOPLE THAT EXIST. but also i shldnt have to say tht after saying this yk #also b4 u say ooh ur aro tho why do u need to specifcy u wldnt do anything romantic w a man when i wldnt with a woman either #i am actually pretty romance favorable. like i would be in a romantic relationship with a woman if it wldnt ruin my life #with how it is rn . i think i like and want all the parts tht make up a romantic relationship i just dont experince romantic attraction #but anyway i was here to talk abt my sexuality not my romantic orientation #this post was originally like 'im remembering why there was such a huge overlap with my og major starkid hyperfixation #and me identifing as bisexual' but the thing is is the main main guy from starkid i remember being attracted too #was infact . rob. and thats aged badly bc of it being revealed that hes a fucking creep since then #but also just now not that we should ignore tht but regardless of that i just. dont see it at all #maybe it is that news subconsiously turning me off him but i really dont see that much what i liked abt his appearance #but who rly inspired this post to me is infact . jeff blim ? which is suprising just from the fact tht i dont ever remember #having tht big of a crush on him with that og starkid hyperfixation. but well he is a very beautiful man . giggling a little bit. sorry . #also becoming a bit obsessed with joey richter but thts just standard lesbian obssesion with a weird little man #not attractive to me im just obssesed with him. hi #also posting this now so when i finally watch the fnaf movie i can rb it abt josh hutcherson #anyway. does anyone read these tags do these long rants i go on like. turn ppl off of my posts. sometimes i wonder #flappy rambles

Random joel thoughts but do y'all think he took Sarah to see Finding Nemo and it hit him harder than he thought it would because like Marlin he is also a single father doing his best with a child he'd do anything for. Sarah is far from being an uncapable child but do u think that Joel ever wonders if he is a bad father because he works so much and so he buys her a small goldfish so something can keep her company when he can't.

#joel miller #joel miller fanfiction #like its clear Sarah is pretty dependent #and that Joel loves her but also isn't the best at caring for himself #so i wonder if he ever thinks of that stupid disney fish movie #i love finding nemo btw #though finding dory hit me really fucking hard bc its about her searching for her parents #and as an adopted kid i could relate slightly

SUPER DARK TIMES (2017) DIR KEVIN PHILLIPS

#tragically had to skip the 'are you afraid of me' exchange i love at the start bc. this scene is Long #super dark times #josh templeton #zach taylor #sam edits #btw i'm firmly in the 'Josh didn't kill John' camp. bc to me THIS scene is the point that... makes the most sense as Josh's breaking point/ #'villain turn' if that's what you'd want to call it. because this is really when Josh... sort of 'officially' loses Zach. from early on in #the movie it becomes clear how much Zach is like... an anchor for him—the way Josh is just fucking *chanting* his name in distress during #the Daryl accident. The way Josh begs Zach to believe him that it was an accident. The way Josh turns to Zach for answers/clarity/direction #Like even if we want to take a cynical approach and think of it as Josh just latching onto Zach in the Daryl situation because he was There #rather than that being an established thing w/ them... in the aftermath of that same incident Josh is still looking to/depending on him! #Josh self isolates at first... but after they talk & Zach tells him they shouldn't act weird Josh goes back to school. (yes #he lashes out there because He's Dealing With The Crushing Guilt but *all* of 'em are acting off then—Charlie specifically calls attention #to the idea they all probably are) Josh goes to the party just like Zach said they should and is *visibly confused* when Zach seems mad to #see him there. He goes to Zach's house to talk and you can SEE how caught off guard he is by what Zach says. Even though the script version #of this scene is VERY different from the final version I do think this one bit of description from it is... insightful: 'Josh seems sincere #almost vulnerable. But Zach is too focused to see it.' LIKE in this scene Zach is already convinced Josh has lost it! He's trying to act #more neutral about it (claiming they could just 'draw a line') but we saw his phone call with Charlie. Because of his own guilt-fueled #paranoia—something shown pretty clearly through the assorted dream sequences and like tht scene of him walking in the hall hearing people #gossip about Daryl—it seems like everything lines up too well! that '*of course* it's Josh and what if it's *been* Josh all along and well #then the role *I* played in the situation really isn't *my* fault because it was all *Josh* and...' etc. even if that's more subconscious #But like... this scene is really when it hits Josh! from the moment he asks if Zach's afraid of him now like... there's a shift. although #Zach says he isn't... i mean he fucking stumbles on the word 'afraid' (like... he hangs on the 'f' sound a moment too long to sound natural #its very subtle but like Noticeable). But Josh sees right through him. Zach doesn't trust him anymore. Zach thinks he's the bad guy. the #monster. Josh feeling like he lost the last person he had in his corner feels like the most realistic thing to... push him over the #edge. like that's a compelling tragedy to me—the idea that these two poorly coping with the Daryl situation in these separated ways where #they *aren't* talking/communicating ends up CREATING the feedback loop that makes everything get worse and worse. #But for that to be the case... it wouldn't make sense for Josh to have just randomly killed John before this scene. I think it's a more #interesting story if certain things really ARE just coincidences but it's that Zach's paranoia won't let him see that 🤷

“Sorcerers who’ve been practicing and perfecting their craft for literal years are humiliated and outdone by a young pretty white girl who was magically born with all the powers the rest of them had to work for” has got to be the worst trope in fantasy movies.

#I’m talking about The Craft specifically #Nancy and her coven should’ve killed Sarah and that’s it on that ☕️ #im also talking about Wanda fucking maximoff #Stephen strange and the folks at kamar taj etc etc should’ve obliterated her in like 72 seconds #pretty young while girl sickness is such a problem in our society I fear #fantasy #fantasy movies #the craft #marvel #mcu #anti wanda maximoff #so essentially the message is #it doesn’t really matter how hard you work #other coded character must comply and be subservient to the wet blanket conformist characters #or they will be crushed and vanquished and defeated while ms pumpkin spice latte gloats over their bodies #got it

fhjwksjsndbsjdjjs do NOT let the media fool you. the new moulin rouge flat out sucks.

#‘omg it’s a BOLD new take’ yeah it’s bold. #musicals are like marvel movies for me at this point and this was my dr strange multiverse. #okay edit now that im sober: the rest of the show was really stunning!! costumes choreo sets performance #it was all really amazing but the songs were fucking awful it was like glee-esque shit #which to be fair. i haven’t seen the original so i can assume it was pretty much the same just with different music. #but auighfhdhhhh when she started singing katy perry firework i literally almost jumped up and RAN
