Me whenever this scene comes up
#velvet is better than me bc i wouldve started strangling his ass as soon as he got the fraud part out#then when he started to weasel out of going to jail by saying he had a “change of heart” i wouldve drop kicked him then & there#like did bro really think the justice system would be like “oh ok nvm just let him go then” after he said he was sorry#but then again they let the chef and bergans run free so troll logic kinda fluctuates depending on the movie#also one more thing before i stfu#what was the reason for that moment between floyd & ven at the end if he & the rest were just gonna watch them get arrested anyway#like the whole reason viva & bridget became friends was bc bergans had w change of heart and agreed not to eat trolls anymore#but no the gay man and his sister are the ones who have to go to jail#like im surprised they didnt keep veneer and let velvet go to jail 💀#ok im done bye#can you tell who im biased against#also if i got any of this wrong pls refresh me i haven't watched the 2nd movie and its been a bit since i first saw the 1st movie#dont yell at me ;-;#velvet and veneer

like guys i promise im aware blossomfall is meant to be a glass child. i just think she’s a poorly written one lmao
#tbh thats why my feelings on her are so strong. its a delicate topic for kids but time and time again#its been handled extremely poorly and just used as an excuse to hate disabled people#i think my exhaustion with these stories is bc they were sorta shoved down my throat by the school board growing up#because they heard ‘’wow you got TWO autistic brothers??? your life must SUCK ASS AND BALLS have this book abt how autism ruins families’’#wow cool i feel so much better guys. both about the ableism my family faces in general and about my undiagnosed autism#if i had to think. and i havent read this in forever so i could be misremembering. i think a decent example of a glass child trope#is the sister from ‘’wonder’’ (the book. idk what the movie did)#because while she’s an important character who struggles with internalized ableism#the focus is still on auggie and HIS struggles with his own disability and the ableism he faces as a result#and the sister isnt demonized for her feelings but she does still have to grapple with them#and accept her situation and that no one is at fault or anything. its just a consequence of an ableist society more than anything#again. been forever and ever since i read that book and iirc it does still have iffy shit like the one chapter on genetics#like to this day that sticks out as an uncomfortable chapter and idk if i can say its fantastic rep bc of that#but idk. i remember liking it fine as a kid#i always appreciated books that tried to get into multiple perspectives on the issues#also this is just me and ik it goes against the definition of the term#but man. kinda wish we’d get a glass child character thats also disabled and their disability is undiagnosed or ignored#for the sake of only prioritizing their sibling and bc they have to be ‘’the perfect abled child’’#because thats my story lol#wasnt allowed to be disabled or imperfect or need help because being a third disabled kid wouldve been too much

AND THE CHAMELEON TOO if shifu was there..my god if shifu and tai lung were there to see the chameleon and zhen. i would restructure everything a little bit to put more direct parallels there but. shifu and tai lung vs zhen and chameleon vs po and his dads. couldve been something.
#where i wish his dads had had a 'we're afraid for you but we trust you and your judgement. you know what you can handle better than we do#and we will support u'#i just wish the movie was less a fear of change and more learning to trust your inner voice#they do that gag where pos inner voices are silly and his inner shifus are mean#it wouldve been nice if that had been pulled around thematically into something about trusting yourself.

need to see older trans man Wolverine being confided to by a closeted pre-transition Kitty. Perhaps when he transitions he changes his name to Puppy. He and Iceman are bros now.
#context: I watched#deadpool and wolverine#last week and since then i've been on a (slow) binge of the xmen movies#the third movie from the original timeline was mid compared to the other two#i wish bryan singer had stuck through for all of them#this one wasn't gay enough and the plot wasn't good#honestly I think there shouldve been like#a short film showing mutants local politics. i think that wouldve been better than The Cure nonsene#ANYWAY#trans wolverine#trans kitty pryde#I need to post this or I will write a whole essay down here

worlds fair is a great movie to watch when as a teenager you were a big name in a very small online community and most of the people you interacted with were grown ass men and also you had no friends irl and it was all you did lol
#and then you went to meetups with all the grown ass men who knew you??? 😭😭😭 LOL WHY DID I DO THAT#i thought some aspects of the movie were undercooked but. fun to have thoughts abt#also i wonder if it wouldve been better served as like a multimedia project rather than a film???? or am i crazy#like if it was actually online and you could read all the chat logs and watch the videos yourself#like i feel like the sections that were not just posted video/video calls were way less interesting#but also the relationship (?) with jlb was the most interesting part too. Like shivers u really dont see that kind of thing portrayed#the insane grey areas and immense discomfort of it all 👍 correctly rendered

coworker asked me a few weeks ago about what theme he should do for the book group he was starting and I was stoked bc he has great taste and was going to do it at a time I could actually go and he ended up choosing popular booktok books as his theme 😒
#zach please 😩 im not reading these fucking books bro#he also does a program where he partners w a local indie theater and shows a free movie every month#so i was hoping hed do a tie in where he did like books that were made into movies bc hes great w film analysis#and i think that wouldve been super fun!#but somehow he went from only owning a flip phone when we first met 3 years ago to being addicted to tik tok. rip homie#for context to new followers: i work at a library so these are library programs#before anyone says in being pretentious or think im better than other ppl bc i dont use tik tok or w/e: ya. ur right.

also is the thing with the box ever. explained?
#barbie#like from what i remember it was just kinda Ominous Box but there didnt seem to be any signs it wouldnt do what will ferrell said it would#and like you can chelk her bailing at the last second up to her being conflicted about going back to barbieland or not but#the fact that she runs as theyre tightening the twist ties makes it read as more to do with fear of the box itself#and like the ceo's goal was to get her back to barbieland anyways and she was primed to want the same thing at that point#because she'd just gone through the Horrible Real World Experiences wringer so even if it was just based on internal#conflict that wouldnt be the time to do it#i think story wise it wouldve been better to either a) cut the box out entirely‚ b) make the ceo Actually Evil and have the box do#worse than just. be a teleport chamber?#(and yeah ik ik like him and his men chase her down which is upsetting to her but he's not like. maliciously#motivated really? like he wasnt looking to kidnap her and hold her prisoner or smth like. she wanted home‚ he wanted to#send her home‚ and then she bails for no discernable reason other than Thats How The Plot Goes)#or c) have her accept the box and have it work to teleport her home but then have the seeds of doubt that have already started in#her grow organically as she lives a few more days in perfect barbieland and is like Wow Actually This Life Sucks For Me#then have ken come back and do his whole takeover while she's distracted by something#for example thats how you could integrate the mom and daughter back in is have her find out they did send her back and#come out to barbieland to investigate thinking it /was/ against her will#idk the box was just weirdly implemented as a plot device imo#like theres a lot of things in the movie that don't make any sense outside of 'you know‚ like how barbies do?'#which sometimes works and sometimes doesnt

i take ISSUE with the chicken reference in bttf2. they treat it as this important moral centre that marty has, but in the first movie it’s NEVER established that he has some sort of grave hatred of being called chicken, but they try to make it SEEM like a well-established fact. only part of the films I actively dislike. why’d they add that huh. why. so strange.
ive thought abt that before too and i think the main thing is that the second two films were made five years after the first lmao BUT i will say i dont think its contradictory to his character as established in the first film? moments his pride is called into question (like with strickland and such) he really pushes back against which is somewhat along the same lines? the exact scenario of being made out to be a coward never really comes up though 🤔 all to say no i definitely dont think any of that plotline was in mind when the first film was made, but i dont think that its necessarily bad? since it doesnt really strike me as out of character the REAL discrepancy is why marty's hair is so much longer in the second two films despite taking place immediately after the first (this is a joke) (kind of)
#wouldve made for a little tighter storytelling if it had been in the first film but again. five years between first and second........#im not really cut out for putting my thooughts into words but i am trying haha#i do like his firsr movie haircut better..#in world hair explanation? the time wave caught up to him and lone pine marty always kept his hair a little longer than twin pine marty#ask#anon#ty for sending this this was fun haha

tatsuya kato was really the one carrying all the weight of fs2 like. the movie sucked ass but the music is still SO GOOD the ost for all of free! is so sososososooooo so so good
#listening to it and just Being Sad#that the movie just FLOPPED like there was SO MUCH POTENTIAL#they really should have had makoto get fucking hit by a fucking car smh#wouldve been 100000x better than whateverthefuck we got#i say things#edit: okay wwait im not done ranting#LIKE if youre gonna make it such a big thing for us to care about#kaede and his brother and azuma and have this whole tragic backstory for the brooding asshole coach#then MAKE IT HAVE A PURPOSE for the MAIN FUCKING CHARACTER#if youre gonna end up focusing on haru and leaving the underclassmen in the dust#then COMMIT TO IT!!!!#like seriously if they were gonna have this whole thing of kaede's brother no i dont remember his name bc i do not care#then have haru go thru the SAME THING that azuma did#it doesnt even have to be SUPER THE SAME#but like. come ON make haru have to CHOOSE between SWIMMING and SOMETHING ELSE#and that SOMETHING ELSE could have been HIS OWN HEALTH#but they DECIDED TO KEEP THAT OFF SCREEN!!!! FOR SOME REASSON!!!!!!#me: im upset but normal about fs2 again#me thinking about it for more than 2 seconds: i have never been so angry in my life#IT JUST!!!! MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!!!! WHAT DID THEY DO!!! WHAT FUCKING HAPPENED!!!!#i just dont understand and i never will... it was so disappointing.....#go back. redo it. fuck all of this#am literally like about to buy into the conspiracy theory that bc tatsu cheated they changed a bunch of the movie#bc like. that happened before the first one was out right?????#and like. it would have been a bit insane. but also the animation industry doesnt care about animators#so they could have been like 'quick redo the whole 2nd one to make makoto in it less'#but like FOR WHAT PURPOSE god fucking shitting damnit#i was about to go to bed and now im all upset about this again aghdfjsgkdjhjfsdgkshdfkgfg#anyway i got away from my point#in short: they tried going 17 different directions and then didnt tie up any of them

i get wanting certain things in movies and maybe being disappointed if u were like led to expect something and did not receive it but i just rly do think its a terrible way to watch movies to come in with a list of constantly changing criteria a story should follow regardless of whether it even makes sense or is good for the narrative or would do literally anything except make u believe gay ppl exist in movies sometimes. like maybe u just didnt like the fucking movie maybe it doesnt mean anything except that ive watched plenty of shit that didnt do anything for me and i was like well that isnt for me. ive watched shit w gay ppl i get NOTHING from and i may not understand why other ppl care but i just leave it. its fine to not care. also a lot of the time something will DO what u want and it just didnt do it in a way u were satisfied with so then the criteria changes anyway. like i think some ppl just want to be unhappy
#like tell me honestly do u rly genuinely believe promare wouldve been better had the chars turned to look at the screen and said btw Im Gay#im doing all this bcuz Im Gay. do u not think that mightve felt a little i dont know. like the movie thought u were a morno#moron*#yes stories r written acertain way and a narrative couldve been written to justify that but like personally#i care more abt whether the gay dudes r like good and healthy and not boring as a fucking rock than i do whether they say the word gay#they did out of themovie if u desperately needed it that bad#promare

not to be like "ummm just make original things instead" but ocean's 8 wouldve literally been so much better as an original movie like its a perfectly fun heist but having to exist in the shadow of ocean's eleven just makes it feel so much worse than it is
#i probably couldve enjoyed it more if i'd seen it first!#and also like. it IS better to make an original movie with women than to remake/spinoff an existing one with women#like i think that is a reasonable stance to take that is not the same as the ppl who say that in a 'dont racebend characters' way#but nothing about this movie needed to be tied to ocean's eleven#every time they riff on it you're just reminded of how its a worse movie#but if it was its OWN thing it would be 'wow what a fun original heist movie! isn't it nice to get an fun non-franchise movie!'#that said this movie probably never wouldve gotten MADE if it hadn't been a spinoff of a franchise#r.txt

maybe if i had done things differently? or maybe if i were just different altogether
#i know i’m the one who broke up with her but it’s one of my biggest regrets#maybe if i hadn’t questioned what she did#maybe if i had let her talk about him more#maybe if i wasn’t so nosey about what happened between them#would things have been better if i didn’t tell her i was ace?#would things have been better if i just wasn’t ace?#i couldve tried for her#i wouldve done almost anything for her#i miss her more than i’ve ever admitted out loud#i miss playing games with her#i miss taking naps while watching movies together#i miss holding her hand#i miss her holding me#i miss kissing her#i miss painting her nails#i miss braiding her hair#i miss her.

going to eat peter hyams alive just watched 2010
#i. you. you cant.#i expected it to be not as good as 2001 and it was so much worse than i thought it would be#like yeah. kubrick burned most of the og material bc he was kinky like that. and they did a rly good job recreating it#and adding new things#but in terms of dialogue. cinematography. soundtrack???#genuinely. how did you fuck it up THAT bad.#i went in with a low bar and they dug to the center of the earth with it#at least we got reqium and thus spoke zarathustra. dunno what i wouldve done without them#you could have TRIED to make more than like. a singular symbolic shot#kubrick was an abusive dickhead but by god. he made a good fucking movie#he burned things in fear that anyone making sequels would fuck it up. and then he let you make a sequel. and you fucked it up.#like it didn't have to be great! for hyams to have had 4+ major roles in the creating of it he was prbly already taking on a lot of stress#but jesus fucking christ the dialogue and the shots sounds and looks like EVERY OTHER FUCKING ACTION MOVIE#YOU CANT MAKE A SEQUEL IF YOU ARENT GOING TO AT LEAST TRY TO FUCKING IMITATE THE ORIGINAL#like you could have TRIED to imitate it and not done a great job and i would have been so much happier!! you couldve tried!!!!#for the love of god could you have at least given me a correct shot of hal!!!#ive read the wikis for the sequel novels looking forward to reading 2010#bc ik they got the plot right. but. that was pretty much the one thing they got right.#also shoutout to keir dullea for somehow looking the same 16 years later. how the helld you do that#hold on rereading the wiki. wdym some of the characters were whitewashed. wdym max and curnow were bisexual and dated.#that. that better be true istg#ANYWAY.#i have to stop. otherwise i'll keep going.
