While Goncharov posting was (and, to a certain extent, continues to be) fun, I do regret that the trend seems to have reduced Scorsese himself to a meme on Tumblr.
Like, when people on here respond to every post that mentions his name by jokingly bringing up the nonexistent movie that he supposedly directed, do they know that they're talking about the very same man that cast Shinya Tsukamoto—the underground filmmaker behind such deranged, perverse cult classics as Tetsuo: The Iron Man, Tetsuo II: Body Hammer, and A Snake of June—as a devout Christian in Silence?
Was anyone who hopped on the bandwagon even aware that Scorsese played Vincent van Gogh in Akira Kurosawa's Dreams? Or, to lower the bar a bit, that he voiced Sykes in Shark Tale?
I mean, Jesus Christ, are any other users on this site old enough to remember the Animaniacs episode in which the Goodfeathers' preferred hangout spot is a statue sculpted in Scorsese's likeness?
It's time we stopped degrading Scorsese's legacy by falsely crediting him with entirely fictional accomplishments... and started acknowledging the objectively hilarious things that he's actually done throughout his career.
Hello. Can I ask for the reaction of Disney villains to s/o with paralysis of the lower extremities?
Will bribe, threaten and blackmail the entire city into being handicap friendly and the heroes can't even do anything because how the fuck do you argue against that without sounding like a complete asshole? "Oh look, that restaurant you like finally got that ramp. Must have been because the owner was confined to a wheelchair himself quite recently. Heard about it from a friend.": Hades, Sykes, Chernabog, Horned King, Maleficent and Cruella.
Will, like idiots, attempt to fix it with magic. Hijinks ensue. "I'm sorry I made you float 200 feet in the air, and made you grow wings, and made you teleport randomly... and for giving you spider legs but I really thought that last one would work!": Yzma, Ursula, Jafar and also Maleficent but don't tell anyone.
Casts magic on the wheelchair instead like a smart person. "Just say 'stairs' and it will float up or down the nearest set. Also it WILL bite people it doesn't know so watch out for that.": Dr. Facilier and Mim.
Chronic worrier, they will over monitor S/O and be irritatingly helpful. Tell them to run into the woods and find a blue flower with red thorns. "That was mean, and impractical we needed eggs! I could have gotten eggs!": Shan Yu, Shere Khan, AUTO, DORIS, Randall and Headless horseman.
Gives the asked for amount of help and generally doesn't make any sort of fuss over it. "Hey do you wanna- Wait let me... Yeah it's accessible, you wanna see a Dolly Parton cover band this Friday? The bar has loaded nachos too.": King Candy, Captain Hook, Scar, Zira, Ernesto and Alameda Slim.
Straight up forgets most of the time, they are pure of intention but dumb of ass. "It's on the top shelf... Why would that- OH FUCK RIGHT!": Oogie Boogie and Tamatoa.
Here's another little teaser for my upcoming audition for MxDisney 2024! I've finished masking 95% of it all, so now I have a week to put it all together, finishing the manips and find/create some backgrounds. Fortunately I am off work both Thursday and Friday next week, so I'm expecting to get most of it done there.
I won't be uploading the finished product to the public until the 22nd though when I have my deadline, even if I finish a couple of days before just to make sure I'm 100% happy with everything 👀
