HEAVY SPOILERS FOR MONKEY MAN!!!! GO WATCH THE MOVIE IF YOU HAVENT ITS REALLY GOOD DAMMIT!!!!!!!

Anyway

I think an overlooked bit in Monkey Man is how bleach is used as imagery and association. Bleach is often use is to remove stains from clothes/surfaces, disinfect things, and just generally clean stuff. I think this plays a lot into the revenge narrative central to the film, as well as offering a comparison/contrast to the villians’ methods of “removing India’s scars”

When the Kid first shows his hands he says they look that way from bleach and chemicals and calls them his CV. Now, without the mention of bleach this scene is still impactful within context, bc the Kid is indirectly saying that his life is defined by his trauma and the death of his mother (and maybe even his inability to save her). Hands are also a reoccurring symbol throughout the film in an of themselves. But back to bleach. I think mentioning bleach is important bc it depicts bleach as corrosive and something higher ups don’t want to engage in. “Give me the job no one wants to do, and ill do it.” No one at Kings wants what the Kid wants, and no one there is willing to cleanse the city and the establishment of its own corruption.

There’s also the fact that Kid’s pseudonym comes from the brand of bleach he uses at his job. By naming himself after the bleach he uses, Kid associates himself with an aggressive way of cleansing, which is kinda the whole message of Monkey Man as a narrative. It’s telling that the closest thing to a conventional name we have for the Kid just reinforces his purpose within the story.

Finally, the Kid bleaches his monkey mask before he goes to Kings for the final act. I think this is symbolic of him stripping away his persona of “Kong” that he used as a fighter from the mask, replacing it with the identity of Hanuman he has come to inhabit. The lighter fur looks more like the fur Hanuman is shown to have throughout the movie, both in the children’s book and the puppet in the stage play. It could also symbolize the Kid “cleansing his mind” of what remains from before he was saved by the hijras, and fully embracing his purpose.

Am i thinking about this way to much? Obviously but i don’t care bc its fun lol. Love this movie.

A frustrating development with the growing lack of reading comprehension I've personally noticed is an emerging fervor of insisting things aren't canon unless they are explicitly stated beyond all reasonable doubt.

I can not emphasize enough how harmful a mindset this is to have. Yes, it's wonderful to have characters outright say "I'm trans," but to deny a character's identity for not saying that is dangerous.

Plenty of real people prefer not to use specific labels. Historically, people didn't have our modern terms or modes of expression. Many modern cultures don't use these terms, either, and plenty of people within those that do can't safely openly identify.

If the only representation you accept as canon is within modern (and let's be honest, wealthy white able-bodied American) standards, then you are denying yourself and others a huge amount of representation and seriously limiting the media around you.

#remembering how people were like hmm its not actually canon that Steve is trans and adam is nonbinary... #steve doesnt fucking know what 'trans' is hes an unhoused time traveling cowboy like!!! #after an arc. about werewolves. and how people become werewolves because theyre unhappy with their lives. #especially specifically regarding their body/gender #and how adam explicitly says 'your family never saw you as a man' #AND THEN FOLLOWS IT UP. with referring to Steve as 'the man who chose' #like for fucks sake #you are being deliberately and willfully ignorant if you say its not canon. #your ideas of transness are extremely extremely limited if it doesnt include people who dont use the word. #god. ugh. ive been annoyed by this since that episode came out #dont even get me started on how people barely noticed adam is nonbinary.mm #they said they dont wanna be called a boyfriend. come on!!! come on!!!! #how can i make it clearer without them saying shit they woildnt say and have no context for!!!! #scream. #anyways. #delete later lol im just frustrated again. #im not even sure i worded this how i wanted to

waking up in the middle of the night, gripped by unending sorrow, yelling, sobbing, punching my pillows, because i have forgotten to bury patroclus

#Thou sleepest and hast forgotten me Achilles…. #book 23 #patroclus #people confounded by this account r so funny to me #it is just dril tweets but the iliad my guy #and also me posting about the iliad while extremely sleep deprived drunk or high trying to mimic the cadence #when there r themes in the posts it is always intentional. i love sorrow and tragedy and grief and rage #mission statement honestly #achilles is a piece of shit and i try to embody that. he is so stupid and annoying and so full of grief. he is soooo doomed #doomed boy i hate you im kissing u so intensely #greatest hits #yall came in on this one so fast what the hell #themes

Why the fuck does Wildbrain love removing certain facial traits... girl those crow feet lines are like part of his face! They also, as always, made his mouth boring and generic, and OFC had to change his eyebrows !!!

#at this point im just making it a point to shit on how wildbrain handles certain character models sorry ToT #its just so annoying .. #esp bc the borg minifigure literally HAS those crow feet lines #and its like. w the mechanic right? #he got his minifigure in 2021 #2 years AFTER s11 #BUT . tommy said the mechanic was changed in accordance with what lego said they wanted based on the minifigure #and crystalized was literally only one year before the borg minifigure #and if they could change dareth for some ungodly reason #why not borg??? #ninjago #raine's rambles #rant #sorry im just . it gets me worked up its the autism

Idk I'm not trying to be a hater but I just don't think that the parentified teenager dying is the BEST ending for his character

#WHAT DO I KNOW #I genuinely hope no one takes this the wrong way #i know y'all are just having fun but I'm a little annoyed tonight I'm sorry #like it gets so tiring with the ur fave is gonna die every time we have a set update #and just his death is such a terrible message #like he truly hasnt be able to live his own life or even figure out what he WANTS #and im sorry tragedy for tragedies sake is shit writing #anyways if you wanna hate me i have an inbox #jonathan byers #stranger things

penacony numero uno. actually the best arc out of the 3 so far but sunday should kill himself*

#*i cant beat the boss what else is fuckinggggg new 🚬 #im typing this after my idk 4-6th attempt #the fact that you cant do the world level thing like you can in genshin is ass #bailus healing annoys me and gallagher...is actually pretty good for the fight i was worried taking him in but he does p well #i hate complaining about the difficulty of the game cause the reality is that im just not a stats guy and only vaguely understand how #everything goes. im better at an open world beat the shit outta everything game like genshin but i like sr more </3 #and theres so few imaginary characters. DIE #aventurine and luocha were really good but either didnt care or was saving for someone else and im paying the PRICE #asks #anon #anyways ueah penacony fire story. gallagher and misha u are the world 🫶🏾 #also it just looks really good all the maps are so nice looking #the characters are enjoyable i like how everyone plays a part and i actually cared about the story #star rail spoilers #b4 i got to the part ingame i saw mishas va on twitter give a lil thank you and i was like hes deeefinitely dying lmaoo #it was a nice ending for those 2 though bittersweet. im glad misha did get to experience the astral express even if it wasnt the one we kne #mhy

this is not a new thing to say about ao3 commenters but i will clarify it isn’t something that bothers me anymore bc my level of not giving a shit has finally reached irreparable highs, but readers trying to give writing advice is so ridiculous to me. ‘really good, however i think that-’ don’t care + didn’t ask + you aren’t an editor + this is fanfiction + didn’t ask + didn’t ask + didn’t ask + didn’t

#and not to be That Guy but ESPECIALLY on popular fics. like okay sure whatever you say wise guy #i was clearly desperate for this gracious advice. what would taob have been without you #(im not saying it’s ‘worse’ when it happens on popular fics bc it’s not but i do think the level of self-importance #required to comment shit like that is much more explicit. just to clarify) #hella on day 4842 of slagging taob off at every juncture but defending it with my life if someone leaves an even slightly annoying comment #you cannot fathom the toxic yuri dynamic i have with that godforsaken fic

Boba: *holding a sippy cup and looking bored* You done yet?

Jango: …no.

Boba: *soul deep sigh and goes to sit in the bathtub so he can tell Jango about his latest cartoon while they wait*

Jango: *praying for forgiveness for never letting Jaster have a minute alone when he was tiny* thanks, bubbas.

someone on the bodies production team you have to release more layout/bts pictures of charles whiteman's flat please. this is a great start but i need to know him better. particularly if it's got about as much mould as a second year uni house and if he owns as many chairs as it seems LOL

#ok the joke is at his expense but im already romanticising this shit #20-something loser karl weissman moves into the worst flat of all time and makes it a home #hangs a picture of his parents' wedding against the worst wallpaper you've ever seen #just buys what he likes and calls it decor #how else can you explain the fucking model boat next to the fucking telephone. AND YOU MAY TELL ME 'oh thats just random set stuff' #NOT TO ME! #and it stays until he's in his mid 30s. develops a habit of not cleaning up along the way #the shot where he seems to have taken off his shirt/tie/jacket and then dropped them off on various pieces of furniture. HE LIVES LIKE THIS #also entertaining the idea that its his parents' old stuff that he can't bring himself to throw out .. #i will created a fully fleshed out character using 8 episodes and fever dream visions if i have to #karl weissman #bodies netflix #edit: the original tags are above but since then i joined the discord and got to add these pictures LOL #saved this post as a draft bc i was like. i cant annoy people on the tag any more than i already have #doesnt matter. forcing this into the tag like a week after i made it anyway #im still so interested in the fact that it seems like there are more rooms that we never see #outside this bedroom and living space (and the bedroom isnt clear in the show either) #like. i rly need a 360 house tour NOW. #ALSO I FEEL LIKE A TOWN CRIER NO I DONT THINK HE HAS MOULD BUT IT WOULD BE FUNNY!!!! #the chair next to the liquor rly is something. hes MY babygirl

How is tumblr going to ban porn and then show me ads where two triceratops are straight up having sex

#frankly these mobile game ads have also gotten just kinda disgusting and i feel like there needs to be regulations on them #i don't mean the dino fuck one it's not graphic but like #all the ones about those app women getting abused are out of hand like i keep seeing one where a guy cuts off a his wifes boob??? #or where a lady is lactating or pissing herself or shitting herself #or even ones that imply straight up sa. like. #i understand. it's because it's shocking and drives engagement and ppl to make YouTube videos going woooaa weird ads but. #like. i don't wanna talk too much about them bc i don't wanna feed into what makes it effective but i just feel like #there needs to be somekinda standards here. the same way you can't just show whatever on tv advertisements #bc malicious advertising is an issue and there SHOULD be limitations to make sure this doesn't happen #not just bc it's gross but because it's underhanded and also false advertising! that stuff is straight up not in the app lol #it's usually just candy crush w extra steps #tbh im surprised no one has capitalized on actually making a fucked up gross game like that since there's clearly an audience #but still. annoying. sick of seeing them

Ryuji is so anxious in the beginning of the game :( hes so caught up in his head during the kamoshida arc; makes me think hes been like that for awhile, at least until u get a bit further in the game. The rumors, the self loathing, the whole stint w kamoshida; hes got too much on his brain and its kinda nice (and a little sad) that he starts sharing those anxieties and doubts the second hes in a safe space to do so.

#chattin #ryuji #hes definitely more relaxed by the madarame arc #like he got friends and a purpose and he just bounced back immediately #but i am thinking of like. the year everything went to shit for him #like it wasnt his fault but also hes the center of all the controversy #and he went from being very popular (im SURE he was; hes called a track STAR) #to being completely alone w failing grades and a broken leg. like he had alot of time to sit and think #and all the stuff w his home life being so disruptive #like despite what the school body will say he does think before he acts #he had a grown man rile him up to make him act; he didnt just go in guns blazin #i dunno where im going w this lol. i just think he gets alot of flak for being loud and annoying #but just like w everyone else; u get to see their real personality when theyre supported and loved #and ryuji is just loud and brash and he loves w his whole heart #just like ann became super vocal and silly about so many things after u help her w shiho #All the thieves are like this. ryuji is a ball of anxiety #but its quieted down when he has real support and purpose in his life again #and its less that hes ‘quiet’ about his worries; if anything hes more vocal about it #but bc hes so vocal about it; u can see the difference between him messaging u every day worrying about kamoshida #to him going w the flow and putting more trust in u and the team #he loves them sm !!!!
