Book authors that go on adventures similar to the adventures in the books they are writing is my favorite genre of movie

Leave it in the tags or comment if you have a specific type you like watching or if your preferred genre isn't listed!

#poll #scary movies #horror #halloween #there's a lot of sub genres i left out but couldn't think of #definitely not a ploy to get a list of scary movies to watch :3c

I thought you liked Across the Spider-Verse? That came out after The Batman, as far as I can remember

OMFG im so ducking dumb 😂 my brain was so wired on live action superhero movies that i completely forgot about this animated masterpiece

#somehow ATSV is not even a sup movie in my mind. ITSV and ATSV are their own sub genre #my last ask was referring to the mcu/dcu #anonymous

literally so held back by the fact that no one in my life likes horror movies. and horror isn’t one of those genres where ppl will just sit thru it even if it’s not their thing it’s like a hard No

#it is impossible. no one in my life has ever enjoyed horror movies. bitch it’s halloween time #abby talks #and it’s also not smth where people will even try to explore different things #like there are so many sub genres. but god forbid a horror fan tries. around halloween #👎

those "ask your friend which [insert weird niche topic] are you" tiktoks are real w for girls obsessed with knowing how others perceive them they're just so fun

#e.g. ask your friend which horror movie sub-genre are you #my friend said i'm folk #that's how we communicate #that's just beautiful to me

sorry to my roommate but I am a sjm hater. however I think it’s so funny when books are advertised via comparing them to acotar. these bitches will never be acotar lol

#acotar is shit but like. it basically started a whole sub genre of shitty fantasy smut #like. YA/new adult paranormal romance was basically dying out and that series brought it back with a vengeance #like. it’s terrible. and I recognize this is how book marketing works now unfortunately #(it’s like how every horror movie is like This Is Jaws But With Whatever) #but like LMAO you will NEVER be on sjm’s level get real

Yknow one thing I hate to do is compare mechas given they’re all pretty different even putting the clear influence a lot have on each other aside and I don’t like the idea that I’ve seen a lot of mecha fans subscribe to where “if you like this one show you HAVE to like these other ones” but this is less of a comparison thing especially because I’m not petty or anything since it’s just something I thought about:

Mazinger v Getter when it comes to their recognition tends to boggle my mind a bit. Since it feels like there are more dedicated Getter fans around that talk about it than Mazinger fans, but Mazinger is more recognizable to the point it gets more funded stuff than Getter.

I was thinking about this when I was watching Mazinkaiser, and I can’t confirm this but I found it interesting that it almost (felt) like this ova spawned out of Getter making a comeback before Mazinger did, since Armageddon came before and was massive hit, than was followed up with a game + shin vs neo by the time Mazinkaiser was made. Like they even got Armas art director to work on it and the studio doing it was Brains Base who made the getter OVAs.

And in terms of recently all the stuff with Grendizer, which I know was SUPPOSED to get another an anime way before this, is now finally getting something coincidentally after Getter Robo Arc. And everyone is already pointing out between the two Grendizer looks waaay better then Arc so it’s clear it has more money put into it, yet I wonder if Arc didn’t happen if they would bother to touch Grendizer since Arc was them also finally giving the Getter team who NEVER got to be in a anime- well, a anime. And now the most neglected pilot apart of Mazingers universe is getting his own show.

I understand why Mazinger is more known and funded since it was the first self piloted mecha and something Go Nagai, a man who arguably changed the industry a lot, made so his works are always gonna be rebooted for the sake of memory, where as Getter sorta lives in Nagai’s shadow sadly even if Ishikawa memory is respected, but I feel like almost Getter is the one to test if things will work and then they’ll see if they can do stuff with Mazinger again.

Or maybe it’s just two coincidences and we’re just going through a long coming mecha renaissance of older properties of the genre, but I’m still rotating it heavily.

#meg text #mecha rambles #this isn’t even me desperately asking for another getter show either because I know it’s 50/50 #I don’t expect a anime next year for 50 if grendizer happening even if it’s just a announcement #and fuck knows what’s going on with that live action movie which who knows could be good unless they get like idk Anno maybe? #given his trend with a lot of recent “shin” films despite how mecha fans feel about his works lol #but all I expect/want is another damn spin off manga and the next SRW to actually do something new with getter #but I seriously find it interesting how unless I’m crazy getter really lead the way for mazinger to come back #like it PROBABLY would’ve made a comeback by itself but getter said “nah bitch me first” #I know Nagai still did some mazinger stuff after the toei lawsuit but ishikawa was cooking first #I guess this is just a reflection how getter is super significant to the genre but not a lot of people give it the acknowledgement #despite the fact it made a entire fucking sub genre which arguably is as big of a deal as mazinger being the first self piloted robot #especially given how many combiners existed (and became super noteworthy like Gurren and voltron) #I don’t even hold getter on THAT pedestal bc I hate making my interests seem perfect but getter is soso significant to old anime culture #yet it’s stuck in limbo of “it’s not unknown but no one ever talks about it” #I can’t complain bc if Jeeg was instead the mecha show I was super autistic about I’d be more miserable LMAO #(Not like I’m not sad I can’t talk about Jeeg easily bc no one watched shin but- yknow) #it ain’t about it rn
