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.

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.

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

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 😒

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)

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

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

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.
