Cute parallel from the first and second Trolls movie that I noticed:
First movie: Bridget has a secret crush on the King of the Bergens, Gristle, and she has photos on him in her room that she keeps hidden.
Second movie: Branch has secret crush on the Queen of the Trolls, Poppy, and he has photos of her in his room that he keeps hidden.

This one is very special for me 'cause it's another original Dragon Mom pattern!! \o/
Everyone who's familiar with the wonderful movie Coraline will recognize this little fella! I love when it says "what's shakin', baby?" lol Such a creepy little fun movie!
This piece was a commission, and the commissioner chose the color of it... I guess it's lighter in the movie, but I couldn't find a yarn in the same color ^^'
Oh, btw, I'll be releasing the pattern for it soon, so stay tuned!

Difference between Ballister's fake sword and real sword
Okay, so we know Ballister could sense something was off with the weight of his (fake) sword when he got it at the start of the movie. But here I assumed both the real and fake swords were identical in appearance. But while taking screenshots from the movie, my eagle-eyed friend commented that Ballister's (real) sword had the black and white (actually gray) square CN pattern.
But interestingly enough, the rigged fake sword DOES NOT have this CN pattern!
Like damn! Maybe if Ballister had noticed the lack of the CN pattern, then maybe nothing would have gone wrong during the knighting ceremony and Ballister wouldn't have been framed for murdering the Queen!

I'm on the record as saying that I never care when white characters get recast as POC (like with Namor and MJ in the MCU); however, there is one distinct exception to that. I believe Charles Xavier has to be white. Hear me out.
I'm approaching this with the characterization of Charles Xavier in the comics (not the Fox films, as it has been so long since I've seen them) and my own interpretation of the politics surrounding his character. I would love to hear some alternate perspectives, provided that it is all polite discussion ofc.
As I alluded to in an older post I see Charles Xavier as a very liberal character. He is always for assimilation and has a tendency to prescribe the "model minority" mindset. He uses his most attractive and human passing mutants as the face of his team. Never in the comics did he publicly identify himself as a mutant- Cassandra Nova was the one controlling his body when he publicly came out as a mutant. Charles' wealth and his whiteness prevents him from seeing the reality of the mutant situation, it is the reason why him and Erik are always at odds. Erik, as a Holocaust survivor, understands the patterns of discrimination and bigotry. He understands that no matter how much the submit to the mold of "well behaved mutants" they will never be treated the same.
Charles, in my mind, encapsulates the liberal fixation on both the aesthetics of bigotry and the individual. Bigotry is bad when people yell slurs and commit hate crimes. Slurs are yelled by individuals, and hate crimes are solitary events perpetuated by individual bigots. Erik was always a character who attacked the system. He wanted to dismantle the systems responsible for the oppression of mutants. Charles is someone who has benefitted from that system, even as a mutant, and on some innate level is afraid of changing that fact. I think being white and wealthy contributes greatly to the philosophy of Charles Xavier. The politics of mutants and the X-Men universe has always been something of great interest to me and this is just the way I see it. But, what do you guys think?

don't watch movies with me if you don't want the ending spoiled. I've never seen it, I've just taken enough literature and storytelling classes to guess how it ends
