Omg so i have finished watching the Nimona on netflix and i gotta say - it's such a good movie! All obvious topics and themes aside, i just LOVE that we get a mean and a little evil little gremlin as the hero of the story. This world needs more girls grinning maniacally as they are trying to plot murder.

#nimona #nimona the movie #damn i love this shapeshifter menace #poor ballister meanwhile went from zero to dad and a zookeeper real fast and he's not having a good time for the most of it

augh i’m so glad nimona got saved, but ALSO it deserves so much more than netflix! it deserves a theatrical release! it deserves mountains of merch and esp a little nimona toy that can shape shift transformers-style into different creatures!! it deserves a physical copy available on dvd and bluray, so no one needs to worry about having access to it if netflix one day decides to yank it for a tax write-off or some other equally ridiculous reason!!!

#netflix #nimona #nimona the movie #animation #it’s VERY GOOD pls watch it

I think Todd plays a more important role in Nimona than just to be the annoying bully for viewers to hate. His overt bad behavior removes any possible rational basis someone could claim for the Director's absolute faith in the superiority of the noble class as knights.

Without Todd, the only other high status knight we'd get to know is Ambrosius, who, for all his faults, is still largely the kind of upstanding person knights are "supposed" to be. Without Todd, it would be possible to imagine a world where the Director has only ever worked with knights like Ambrosius and thus is perhaps naive.

But instead we have Todd, openly acting terrible in a way the Director can't miss, indeed, she *doesn't* miss it, even commenting on his behavior directly, and yet her faith in the system and her distrust of commoners doesn't change.

Todd exists to show how evidence alone doesn't hold up to blind faith and fear of others. And this makes sense. The world of Nimona isn't a metaphor for America as a whole, but for the America that exists under evangelical and fundamentalist Christianity, which rejects reason and openness to others and the possibility that it might be wrong, instead favoring obedience to tradition and heirarchy and conclusions-first reasoning. Todd's existence reveals through the Director just how dangerous valuing faith and belief above all else can be.

One Day After Watching Nimona

Me: *Refreshing the Ambrosius/Ballister tag on ao3 for the upteenth time of the day* Come ooooooon...where are all the fanfics?! I want my angst, my meet-cute, my canon divergence fics, please! I’m dying here!

I am so impatient, but I ADORE this film and this couple so much, I just want more!

Nimona said here’s this little girl who just wants to be herself in every form, who just wants to belong. Here’s her giving an apple to her only friend, nervous and desperate for acceptance. Here’s her friend accepting her up until peer pressure changes her mind. Here’s this small little girl, who just wanted to be herself and have someone love her and accept her as she is, in every form she is, seeing the one person whom she thought was ok and accepting turn on her, rejecting her. Here’s this bitter girl who’s whole experience has been rejection, has been villainized by people because she is different because she is herself. Here’s an institution that focuses on differences and how bad and monstrous they can be, that instills hate and fear into the citizens it swears to protect and yet will tear them down to get to whatever it wants to destroy. Here is someone who grew up in this institution, was molded by it and then turned away, villainized by the people he swore to protect, the people he loved. Here are these two people who are so different, who come from different backgrounds, have different motives, and yet they are the same, but not quite. Here are two similar individuals but one is not quite a monster, one does not have to chose between being themself or fitting in.

Nimona is so many things but it is a trans story through and through. It is so unapologetically queer, so unapologetically trans, so very important especially for today’s society. I’m so happy to see this iteration get the love it deserves <3

Nimona headcannons for being her younger sibling, please?

~Nimona as your older sister~

●Nimona would make an awesome older sister

●She'd definitely keep you entertained with her mischievous antics and cool powers.

●She's always have your back no matter what.

●you would never have a dull moment with her.

●Nimona would be there to support you, cheer you on, and protect you when needed.

●She would encourage you to embrace your uniqueness and be true to yourself.

●She'd be the kind of sister who would make you laugh with her silly jokes and be your partner-in-crime on all sorts of exciting adventures.

●Whether it's exploring new places, trying new things, or just being there to listen.

●Nimona would be super overprotective of you when you guys walk around the kingdom.

●Would definitely beat up anyone who is mean to you or calls you a monster.

●She would also turn into any type of animal you want, give you rides on them, fly around, go for a good swim. Anything you want

●Ballister and Ambrodius would kinda be like parents to you and nimona. (They are definitely overprotective of you guys frr)

When I watched "Nimona" for the first time, I was struck by the fact that the villain of the story, The Director, doesn't have a name. Throughout the movie, she's simply referred as The Director. And then it hit me. Nimona is a deconstruction of the typical archetypes you meet in fairy tales. In most fairy tales, the hero has to fight an evil monster, like a dragon that guards a treasure, or an ogre and a giant that likes to terrorize people or a wizard or a witch that has cursed a noble princess. Most of the times, these monsters don't have a name. The dragon in St.George's story doesn't have a name. The giant in Jack's story doesn't have a name. Neither Snow White's stepmother, who is simply referred as The Evil Queen. By leaving The Director nameless, they put her in the same position as these monsters.

so i just finished watching nimona right

yes, I know it's been like a year since it came out. Sue me. I never had time to watch it.

But, uh. I can't stop thinking about how Nimona - even as an outsider - gets to watch things change. Gloreth doesn't fight for her when her parents call Nimona a monster and try to kill her, but Ballister yells and fights when they electrocute her and pin her down. The first time, she is attacked and almost killed by her own best friend, but the second, she finds something in the realms worth saving, and almost dies of her own accord.

she gets to see how the world evolves and grows and even though it's still not great - it's getting better. She's willing to sacrifice herself for a future where things are better. Yes, she thinks she won't actually die, and she changes into the form with maximum chance of survival, but it's not like she's actually tested this before.

the Nimona movie is special. the book was really good, but it was written in a time when a lot of marginalized communities, particularly the queer community, were hurting, and Nimona was meant to portray the complex struggles of that; how things can't just be fixed like in a fairytale, and the rot has to be torn out. It was a lot more cynical and was meant to inspire outrage at the injustice of a system built on corruption

however, I think the movie fits better for the current political and social climate. it's about how oftentimes, it's the system and not necessarily the people in it that cause harm, about what could be and how people can change, rather than tearing everything down. It gives people the chance to be better, instead of throwing everything out like in the book. I also think we need a happy ending free of guilt or sadness or questions - we have enough of that in our daily lives.

Anyway, I just finished it and absolutely cried. Ta, everyone.
