#story is phenomenal

[aye-of-newt]

guillermo del toro’s pinocchio is a beautiful film but my god no one has adapted that story like neverafter. you can never look at it the same way again after listening to lou wilson, a black man, explaining that he chose to play as pinocchio because it’s a story about a little boy who isn’t allowed to make mistakes. that in pinocchio's story, he is fundamentally barred from childhood at once upon a time. he must earn something that everyone else is granted from birth. the other boys get to tell lies and play and get into trouble, but when pinocchio does the same thing there are grave and violent consequences. his pinocchio is trying to understand why the world is so unfair, why the rules are so different for him, why everyone else gets to be a real boy.

and I think about it every day.

#I'm sure so many other people have said it better than me but I think it deserves being said a thousand upon a thousand times #lou wilson is a phenomenal talent and storyteller and actor #and his ability to bring that character from the most ridiculous heights of comedy to gut wrenching emotion on a pinhead was unforgettable #I have so much respect for everyone in the dome but I don't think any story gripped me as much as pinocchio #d20 #dimension 20 #d20 neverafter #lou wilson

the thing that makes my entire body itch about that darcy confession scene parallel is that that's the fucking MIDPOINT of darcy's and elizabeth's story. you've baked the pancake halfway and you've tossed it in the air and you're holding your breath --- and now you've got to catch it and BAKE THE OTHER SIDE!!! you can't just roll the credits and leave me hanging like that!!! what if there's never a third season??? the pancake is ON THE GROUND NEIL!!!

#good omens #good omens 2 #good omens spoilers #this triggers one of two things in me #a) the whole story is off-kilter it just feels WRONG to me #b) annoyance at sequel/franchise culture as a whole which has tought studios to prefer a cliff to an ending #did i like it? YES!!! the acting was phenomenal & the emotional beats were all there #did i think it was GOOD? i don't *know* #you gotta let me see the other side of that fucking pancake!!! #it feels like someone left the fridge open ya feel??? #(i've got an essay cooking about why ofmd didn't make me feel like that but that needs a little more simmering)

I’ve had a ridiculous workload for the past few weeks, but that hasn’t stopped me from reading chapter 16!!

@naffeclipse I want you to know how much I was wailing at this one. Just how quickly the hunter went from referring to them as their “dear friend” to “the demonic cryptid.” And the little moments when they finally began to realize that cryptid isn’t entirely dissimilar from the person they’ve gotten so close with… absolutely phenomenal!!

I’d say I’m at the edge of my seat after this, but I fell off that seat way back in episode four. Regardless, I cant fully articulate just how excited I am to see how things play out!!!

#tags first then brain dump!! #star’s art #cryptid sightings #cryptid sightings spoilers #this didn’t technically happen in the reveal but it’s about the reveal #fnaf y/n #fnaf sun #fnaf moon #fnaf eclipse #fnaf daycare attendant #daycare attendant x reader #I have so much to say yet so little time #the next millisecond I get I’ve GOTTA make an analysis of this chapter #how I’d love to make an analysis of all the chapters… #this one has gotta be my favorite to date #I was wondering how many scenarios I was hoping for would play out in the reveal #and the answer is a lot of them!!! #absolutely in love with your writing naff I hope you know #such a phenomenal chapter from such a phenomenal story <3

I envy my fellow Malevolent fans who can remember all the names/key story beats/mystery elements throughout the series and connect dots conspiracy board-style. Couldn't be me. I am just along for the ride. I don't listen to this series for the detailed narrative I listen to it to hear two fucked-up idiots bicker and kill monsters and experience The Horrors. And for the sound design.

#txt #ramblings #malevolent #this is a joke i do also rly enjoy how detailed and immersive the story is its phenomenal #i just have adhd and i cant remember SHIT lmao #someone on here made a trivia quiz for season 1 and i failed that shit so hard #s1 was 84 years ago in my mind wdym. how could I possibly remember a god damn thing from that

i recently went to the actual WH website, saw the cannon Barnaby after months of tumblr brainwashing *cough cough more realistic barn cough* and was taken aback, like i had to look at him for a few seconds. I choose to blame you and that Weevmo feller' for this

respectfully,

What.

#im actually speechless. how. why. extra Why #i just. HUH? #if i didnt already have a headache i think i would have one now #this. this actually makes me a little sad #you havent looked at the actual project before? you havent Enjoyed its Splendor and Horrors? do you even know what its about??? #its such a good project... the source is phenomenal why would anyone bypass it #the richness of the characters... the layered story... the audios... the secrets... the Beautiful Site herself... #rambles from the bog #months of tumblr brainwashing... i need to sit outside and stare into the woods for a while idc what stares back #are we as a species truly salvageable. are we #i mean. yes. im being a bit dramatic but this also greatly saddens me #ok im being healed my cat is making intense eye contact while purring louder than a jet engine & making aggressive biscuits

Someday, I swear, someday...

Someday I will write down why not just the story of Cinderella but especially the dynamic between Cinderella, her evil stepmother and stepsisters is one of the most important stories that has lasted thousands of years for a VERY GOOD REASON

Not just regarding child abuse, feminist literature and literature of female (coded) life experiences

But one of the most important stories PERIOD.

SOMEDAY I will fucking explain why Adrien and Gabriel are a brilliant and extremely important depiction of that story, and a phenomenal gender swapped variation of it for modern feminist story-telling that is very much breaking some grounds. If only Marinette's own girlboss 'knight in shining armor' narrative wouldn't constantly undermine that, making them seem "lesser" bc Adrien is "just" her little damsel she will save "easily" because we can't allow for her to be seen as anything else but one of the "STRONG" modern female heros.

SOMEDAY I will explain why Cinderella and Lady Tremaine are NOT fucking jokes and outdated female (coded) archetypes to be laughed at for how "weak and backwards" they are, but if well utilized one of the most raw and gut-wrenching archetypes of the non-romantic interplay of love vs hatred that grabs you by the most intimit connection a human can have and potentially breaks down the very root of who you are and why.

I will fucking explain why despite how misogynistic our society is, Cinderella and Lady Tremaine are still one of the most iconic protagonist and villain pairs in all of fiction and will continue doing so for many ages to come.

Why Cinderella, no matter how much society will tear her down, will never stop rising from her ashes victoriously. And why Lady Tremaine, no matter how underutilized and slandered she's depicted, will never ever stop dominating 99% of any other villain she's put against.

Both entirely without special powers, status, or whatever. Just through their very presence and dynamic.

I swear to God this fandom...

#keeping up with the agrestes #Sexism in ml #And it's Fandom #The Cinderella story #Cinderella and Lady Tremaine are NOT an insignificant little trope #It speaks for how misogynistic our society is that while Lady Tremaine is still one of the most iconic villains of all time #She's STILL horrifically underutilized in her potential #Just like Cinderella #The Disney remake is actually the closest version to perfection I've seen yet and THIS one remake I 100% support #It's by far the best one #And holy SHIT that Lady Tremaine was phenomenally utilized #And I'm so MAD that Adrien and Gabriel are such an amazing depiction of this #But Miraculous own girlboss narrative for Marinette actively works AGAINST it #miraculous ladybug #miraculous #adrien agreste #gabriel agreste #ml fandom critical
