What's you so far favorite movie/series

For series, to the shock of no one, it is Avatar The Last Airbender. Do I have some issues, some serious and some that are basically nitpiks, with some of the writing choices? Yes. But my God, do I love this show.

The animation, the acting, the soundtrack, the story, the characters, the themes, the jokes, the fights scenes, the emotional moments, the twists that I legitimately didn't see coming but still made perfect logical sense, the ridiculously small details that plenty of people don't pick up on and that are sometimes fully intentional on the writers' part and sometimes just sheer dumb luck... I love it all.

I adore this series. I could watch it a million times and never be bored, always laughing at the jokes I already heard and getting emotional over moments that somehow still seem as raw as the first time I saw them happening.

As for my favorite movie, it is got to be the classic, silly little romantic comedy of Lisbela E O Prisioneiro. This thing is my childhood, not just because I watched it all the time, but also because it came out when I was so young, I don't even remember the first time I watched it. It was just something that, in my mind, was alwasy there, was always a part of my life.

It is incredibly comforting whenever I come back to it, has some of my favorite actors in it (plenty of which I was introduced to by this very movie), and @signlessacolyte can confirm to you guys that I can easily quote the entire thing, in the exact tone of voice the actors say their lines.

It's just fucking hilarious and sweet, but with these little dark moments that give it flavor, plus it just fucking shattered the fourth wall and got meta as fuck about movies. It is totally cliche, knows it, and proudly celebrates it. To use one of the many, many, MANY lines that I could quote in my sleep "The fun isn't knowing what happens, but how it happens, and when it happens." If that isn't the best approach to telling a simple story and making it special, I don't know what the hell is.

And, of course, it has the best trait of any good brazilian media: pure fucking chaos. The leading lady's father added the name of a medicine for syphilis to her legal name, the leading man gropes a woman while he's dressed like Jesus and she's Mary Magdalene, and there's a whole scene describing the types of cucks, which includes the amazing line "There are more kinds of cucks than catholic saints."

(And because I'm me, the scene of Frederico holding a knife to his wife's throat, the two of them almost kissing as he is literally threatening to kill her, awakened many kinks in me)

Okay, so there's a subtitled version of Lisbela on YouTube that I can use to take screenshots 🥳🥳🥳

It's "make your own content" but you're too lazy to put in too much effort

*Squid Squidward wide awake meme* ALRIGHT, hear me out - I've been saying for a while how much Witcher 3 reminds me of the Brazilian countriside (more specific Minas Gerais). And ever since I had this madlad dream of a Brazilian Witcher except we called them Bruxeiros (the X here is pronounced like "SH" not like the American "X" - its kind of a meme here, kind of a "literal" PT-BR translation, it's complicated), and they fight Brazilian folklore badass stuff like Boitatá (fucking giant fire snake), Iaras (river mermaids) and un-curse women that became Mula Sem Cabeça (literally headless mules running around with fire coming out their necks). These are all some of our most well-known folklore for real, lol (HIGHLY recommend season 1 of Brazilian Netflix show Invisible City if you wanna see more! It's REALLY good!)

ANYWAY. I was in my kitchen making toast at midnight, when it occured to me. I had A VisionTM. Brazilian Witcher battle music would be like. Floral Fury.

For those unfamiliar, this specific Cuphead theme is 200% oldschool Brazilian samba - yeah the "weird straw-against-plastic-lid" sound is an actual instrument, it's called cuíca lol "Nah, but this is too happy and cheerful", you say. Alright, you are correct, maybe it doesn't fit to be a battle theme for the Bruxeiros. HOW ABOUT SEPULTURA, THEN

SEPULTURA, THE BRAZILIAN METAL BAND, who performed this song as soundtrack for the BR movie "Lisbela e o Prisioneiro" (one of my fucking faves btw), and it the theme song for Frederico Evandro, a character who's ruthless hitman ("Matador").

BRO. IMAGINE. The peaceful and colorfully bucolic countryside of Minas Gerais and you are there fighting a Brazilian Werewolf (cause they are different from the European werewolf, we have several types btw), with THAT playing as battle theme.

Another good contender is Break of Reality's rendition of "As Bachianas n5" by Villa-Lobos (guy was a badass proeminend classical music composer who loved to mix in Brazilian folk elements with the classical music sttuff, pissing off a lot of purists in the process lol, good for him)

"As Bachianas n5" is probably Villas' most famous piece, it's originally a GORGEOUS aria, classically sung in Brazilian Portuguese.

SEVERAL people covered this song, including Sandy from sibling duo Sandy & Junior (they were EXTREMELY POPULAR with kids and teens back in the 90s/early 2000s); also people from all around the world covered it. You get it, it's pretty legit and famous AF.

THEN came Break of Reality a few years ago

with THIS badass cover:

LOOK.

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE VERSIONS OF THIS SONG. I STAN THIS COVER SO HIGH. I LOVE how it is sweet and emotional, but it brings a totally different, new, raw aspect to it that is so strangely fitting to this song (I can't explain, it just is). I can easily imagine this in the Bruxeiro!AU as battle music, even more cause a lot of the og Witcher 3 OST is full of slavic folk music that doesn't even reflect the Battling of Monsters thing - "...Steel For Humans" is like, a song sung by girls on wedding/harvest festivals, lol.

ON THAT NOTE, I think we could end this crazy ass post by including some of the folk / afro-Brazilian culture as well, which is only fair, and add this one, which I LOVE, "Caxangá / Escravos de Jó" by Milton Nascimento (my beloved <3) and folk singer Clementina de Jesus:

Milton is known to sing in high, ethereal vocalizations and extremely emotional lyrics. Guy is just A Fucking Legend fr. If there's a bard in my Bruxeiro!AU it's def Milton, I love his work so so so much! He's also known for mixing up influences from afro-brazilian culture, as you can see in here!

Stay tuned for more posts like this that can happen again at any moment or never again, lol

Sorry not sorry for being annoying but 2p Brazil still curses me so here's some headcanons:

- I like Francisco as his human name (Chico for short).

-gonna steal take inspo from that fanart and give him those prosthetic claws. During a fight with Argentina he tried to aim at him with a musket. He didn't realized the weapon were damaged so when he shoot it exploded in his hand, making him lose his right thumb, index and middle fingers. The clawed prosthetic is the one he uses more often but he has a more tame one with regular fingers he uses when he gotta look less intimidating.

-unlike 1p Brazil he's not very sociable with his neighbors. He hates the mate trio and doesn't make any effort to befriend the other tans (he deems it as a waste of time). The closest friendship he has is with 2p Chile, since they never did anything to bother each other it's a type of relationship that they can get comfortable with each other.

-i said once he's also friendly with 2p america but you know what? It's more fun if he actively hates his guts. But never in front of him. After all, the guy is one of his main business partners plus could easily beat his ass. So he will act civil in front of him but once Allan turns his back he will spit on the floor and go "gringo porco filho da puta".

-has a pet anaconda named Lurdinha.

- He sounds like Frederico Evandro from Lisbela E O Prisioneiro.
