If I had a nickel for every time David Bowie played a non human character who is sent away from home to find water for his dying people and eventually becomes a depressed alcoholic I'd have two nickels

Weirdly enough, the one time I truly sat and thought about doing a self-insert in a story during my teens was with the "Arthur and the Minimoys" universe of all things.

I will say that while I agree with the second point (Selenia got done so dirty the moment she and Arthur became a thing, and that happened out of actual thin air, no chemistry to add to all of that) the first purported issue is honestly not accurate?
I'll refer to the tribe as BM, cuz of brevity sake.
The BM aren't the only ones who get the pass up, the world of the Minimoys is largely unexplored and left way too vague, and this is despite that fact that the 3 movies largely take place in their world. Anyone that's not a main character gets the side character treatment, even Archibald, who would have the most to say and a lot of intrigue to add considering he kickstarted all this off.
For the implications of Archibald being racist or that he is from the 1960's therefore he may have, idk, forced the BM to move from their original homeland, considering when Archibald comes back to the human world and they are all ecstatic to see him, and in the second movie it's revealed that Archibald went through the same three trials that Arthur went through at the beginning of the movie, and he shows Arthur his own medallion with pride, idk how you can claim that the relationship between them is one-sided or nefarious, there really isn't anything to suggest that, in fact, the opposite is kinda proven.
For Rosie or Francis/Armande, they were out in the hot sun all day digging for the rubies and out of nowhere 5 giant men holding weapons appear from seemingly nowhere, I understand that with all the heat and stress of your son going missing, as well as potentially losing that house, that yeah, seeing 5-6 giant men holding weapons would freak me out or cause me to faint out of shock and terror.
In terms of how Armande describes them, their most predominant feature is that they are tall, and that their skin tone is black.
Unless there's developer commentary or after-statements made after the movie came out about that scene, I don't think there's really enough there to claim it was subtle racism.
To show how imposing they are, Davido, the land developer who was after the rubies, ends up taking a policemans gun and steals the rubies, only for him to walk back-first into the BM, who are still holding their weapons, though Davido is holding an actual revolver, much more powerful than all of the BM and their own weapons, he is so shocked from their imposing stature that it is easy to subdue him.
Also, at the end of the movie, they are all having a dinner together, I wouldn't imagine two people that hate or are scared of black people would do that, it strikes me as a bit odd, to say the least.
That's why I think it was just a miscommunication due to them being so imposing, not saying a single word and holding weapons, just about anyone would he scared, no matter the skin color of the people holding the weapons.
In terms of the face paint, I don't really see the issue, I guess I'll need that spelled out for me, face paint is common among many cultures, and given that this was a sort of rite of passage, face paint makes sense, as it was a common thing among tribes to use face paint to denote someone passing that rite of passage, unless there's some kind of hidden meaning in how the paint was used, nothing is wrong with them painting Arthur's face, in fact, the BMs whole set-up in this scene gives their tribe as a whole more character, it shows that they truly are dedicated to nature, as was alluded to when Daisy read that book to Arthur in the first movie. This isn't me saying that they weren't still done dirty, but it's a huge step up given how absent they were in the first movie.
Also, uh, query how that whole section was culturally inaccurate given that the BM are a made up group of people with a made up culture, yes it may be derived from actual African cultures, however, the bulk of the BMs culture is woven around the Minimoys, being their opposites, and how it caused them to be so peace-like toward nature.
I think that a lot of the issues regarding the movies stem from the fact that not enough time was given for the world to properly develop, it was all so rushed. Think of a random established plot point in any of the movies and I guarantee you that you'll find that it is somehow contradicted by another plot point in the trilogy
Ultimately, I'd argue that despite it's tasteless portrayal of Selenia, and any other problematic aspects it may have, I don't think people should steer clear of what may be a childhood movie, I think that if you're able to critically analyze the movie and recognize what is wrong and what is not, that the movie is quite alright for a nostalgic watch.
I actually saw this post shortly before I saw the movies again, so I went in wondering if this movie was secretly racist and sexist, and that I just somehow missed all of that when I watched the movie as a kid.
And while, yeah, it definitely leaned into sexist tropes, and it certainly is questionable regarding the main romance between Arthur and Selenia, and on a whole, how Selenia was treated by the movie.
I don't really view it as having racist undertones, and with a clear view of it all now, I don't see any kind of stereotypes imbeded in the BM, of course, I could be wrong, maybe there was something neither the OP nor I brought up, but as for what has been brought up, I personally disagree.
Apologies for sperging out on this post, I'm pretty sure this movie trilogy is a certified special interest of mine lmfao. I plan to actually make my own post about this movie, since I've got so many thoughts about it, lol.
Arthur and the Minimoys or the nostalgic movie I would not recommend 
Tumblr media
Back when I was little I was a big fan of a cartoon that told a story of a 10 year old boy traveling to the land of microscopic creatures in order to rescue his grandpa.But upon rewatching the trilogy (yes,there are three movies out there) I realized that it has way more problematic aspects then I remember.You may ask:what is so icky about a French cartoon from 2000s with uncanny valley effects that made you want to warn people?Well worry not,for I will explain it to you!
1.Bogo Matassalai
Tumblr media
Bogo Matassalai is a fictional African tribe that the main characters grandfather,Archibald Suchshot,helped build an irrigation system.As thanks,they gifted him a bag of rubies and introduced him to their friends-minimoys.What is interesting though,is that both tribes mentioned moved to Connecticut,specifically to the Archibalds yard or nearby,seemingly without any reason (as it wasn’t mentioned in any film).Bear in mind that Arthur’s grandfather is supposed to be an explorer during the 60s,so now the implications are weird.
Another thing is Bogo Matassalais lack of individuality:we don’t learn about their reasoning behind abandoning their homeland to move with Suchshot,their backstories aside from what others told of them,even their names are unknown.The tribe usually shows up when the plot requires them to,helping the main character and then disappearing.What’s worse is the reaction of others towards them:Arthur’s father,Francis,after first seeing members of Bogo Matassalai,ran away frightened towards home where he tried to call the police,and when he failed,Francis tried to explain that he saw “tall and black” figures.His wife,Rosie,isn’t better in this regard:every time she sees the tribe,she either faints or acts as if they could bite her head off.It seems that the crew behind those films wanted to show the bias of Arthur’s parents and ridicule them, but without devoting enough time to this aspect, the audience only sees the shuddering and gawking at people of another ethnicity for the comedic aspect.
It’s also important to add that in the second film,the tribe wanted Arthur to pass the tests of nature,where he hugs trees and sleeps near wild animals.Aside from cultural inaccuracy I’m not qualified to dissect,we also get-
Tumblr media
-this.
It becomes pretty clear that Bogo Matassalai are used either as a narrative foil or some kind of exotic “other”,stripping them of any personality or agency.However,this wasn’t the only instance the trilogy did certain characters dirty.
2.Selenia 
Tumblr media
Oh boy,where do I even begin?The princess of the First Land was hinted to be Arthur’s love interest from the very start,but upon getting to know her we notice that she’s voiced by a grown actress(Madonna in the eng dub and Myléne Farmer in the french) and is sexualized either through frames that showcase her butt/breasts(like that scene when Arthur took a lace from her top-corset thingy and she had to hold it from falling apart) or through the words of grown men who want to marry her.So aside from objectification of said character,we also get the memo that she’s an adult and Arthur is too young for her.But apparently that isn’t the issue?During their stay with Koolamassai,the princess explains that she’s 1000 years old,but the human equivalent is 10.So now it’s confirmed that Arthur,a 10 year old boy,is considered an adult in Minimoys society and therefore allowed to marry Selenia,a woman who turns out to be a child in human years.So here we have a female character, who,despite being  portrayed by the male gaze,is still implied to be a kid.
Tumblr media
Thus here are my reasons as to why watching Arthur and the Minimoys may be uncomfortable for an audience who hopped on nostalgia train or wanted to see something new.

French side of Youtube
Il paraît que ça manque de recommandations de chaînes francophones sur youtube qui ne datent pas de 2010.
Sans prétention de complétude, voilà mes recos de youtubeurs (chaînes actives et pas craignos) :
Linguisticae - Chaîne de vulgarisation sur la linguistique en général et souvent la langue française en particulier. Membre des linguistes atterrées, collectif auteur du tract "Le français va très bien, merci". Rageux contre l'Académie Française, comme nous toustes.
L'Histoire nous le dira - Youtubeur historien (et québécois), chaîne très riche avec des séries sur des pans complets de l'histoire (occidentale majoritairement).
Nota Bene - Pour rester dans le thème histoire, la chaîne de vulgarisation historique la plus connue du youtube francophone. Travail de recherche bien sérieux (grosse équipe) derrière chaque vidéo.
G Milgram - Mon youtubeur préféré du moment. Sa mission : s'attaquer à l'emprise des modes de pensée pseudo-scientifiques et anti-scientifiques. Tout est sérieux, sourcé, et fiable, et présenté avec humour. Tu veux savoir pourquoi l'état français utilise l'argent du contribuable pour mettre de la potion bleue à base de fémur de geai dans les éoliennes ? C'est par ici.
Scilabus - Youtubeuse sympa qui depuis ses propres études supérieures en physique a monté sa chaîne pour expliquer ou démystifier des phénomènes du quotidien par des expériences et explications scientifiques. Elle enseigne à Polytechnique Montréal aujourd'hui.
Notseriou's - Chroniques cinéma humoristiques, parfois bien nostalgique (Arthur et les Minimoys a un spinoff officiel et c'est un film d'horreur ??)
Joueur du Grenier - Oups ma liste se transforme en liste de 2010.... N'empêche que JDG est toujours là, toujours sympa. Thème jeux vidéos.
LinksTheSun - Pareil, ça c'est de la chaîne durable depuis bien 15 ans. Films, livres, pop culture....
Le Fossoyeur de Films - Allez, une dernière et après on arrête l'archéologie. Chroniques cinéma, et comme pour ces trois dernières chaînes, a grandi avec ses créateurs et se prend moins au sérieux qu'à ses débuts.
David Castello-Lopes - Plus journaliste que youtubeur, mais si vous voulez plus de tubes par l'auteur de "je possède des thunes", c'est par là. Voir aussi sa chronique "Suisse ?" sur 52" RTS, "Intéressant" sur Arte et "Historiquement vôtre" sur Europe 1
Monsieur Phi - Docteur en philosophie qui vulgarise très bien ce sujet pas forcément facile d'accès.
@logogreffe je crois que tu cherchais

Lecture Chiisako Garden
Tumblr media
Bonjour tout le monde ! Comment vous sentez-vous aujourd'hui ? Êtes-vous en forme ? J'espère que la fin d'année se passe bien de vos côtés et que les fêtes auront été agréables. Pour les curieux, ce sera un manga aujourd'hui, un petit One Shot qui, je l'espère, vous intriguera ne serait-ce qu'un peu après mon avis. Les chiisakos sont des êtres minuscules qui vivent dans la nature. Pour avoir une chance de les voir, il faut être un enfant ou n'avoir jamais connu l'amour. Pour les personnes concernées, ces rencontres s'avèrent très riches en émotions et peuvent apporter le bonheur. Une petite fille va se rapprocher de sa mère, un responsable éditorial prend conscience de ses sentiments pour une auteure, deux époux osent se parler franchement, un garçon déscolarisé affronte l'extérieur... A travers le temps, il y a toujours des rencontres improbables qui changent les personnes. Néanmoins, il n'est pas évident de côtoyer des chiisakos sans passer pour un rêveur ou un fou... Cinq histoires courtes parsèment ce manga de Yuki Kodama, un manga nous entraînant tout simplement dans notre monde, celui que nous connaissons, mais avec un petit élément en plus : les chiisako. Avant de débuter la chronique comme il se doit, je tiens à ajouter que « Chiisako Garden » est l’un de mes premiers titres des éditions Vega et qu’il est arrivé en même temps que le tome 1 de « Deep Sea Aquarium Magmel », deux mangas qui m’ont fait découvrir cet éditeur. Les Chiisako sont de petites créatures humanoïdes vivant dans les jardins ou tout simplement en pleine nature. Visibles la majeure partie du temps par les enfants, ils le sont tant que l’être humain ne ressent pas un sentiment que nous connaissons pour la majeure partie : « L’amour ». Une émotion si forte qu’elle fait que notre vision se modifie petit à petit, que notre cœur se lie d’une certaine façon à quelqu’un. Cela peut se passer à tout âge, même si c’est bien plus fréquent que nous ne les apercevions plus durant l’adolescence, mais il arrive tout de même que des adultes aient gardé un cœur « pur ». Façon de parler bien sûr, mais vous aurez compris que dès l’arrivée de ce sentiment nos amis les chiisako disparaissent progressivement de notre vision et ouïe, ils sont toujours présents, mais invisibles faisant que la destruction de leur habitat peut aisément se faire sans que nous ne le réalisions… A moins d’écouter un enfant, une personne pouvant encore les apercevoir, malheureusement beaucoup finiraient par oublier la présence des petits êtres, pourraient finir par « rire » ou demander d’arrêter de faire des « caprices » suite à l’une ou l’autre remarque. Jusqu’à réaliser, se souvenir de petits moments du passé… Ce que j’ai eu durant la lecture suite à mes différents visionnages des « Minipouces ». Oui, petite je croyais qu’il y avait de petits êtres quelque part dans la maison… Vous vous en doutez sûrement, oui, j’ai vu « Arthur et les Minimoy » ainsi qu’ « Arrietty, le petit monde des chapardeurs » et je lis « Minuscule ». Donc oui… Le monde du « minuscule » m’a naturellement intriguée très tôt et je l’ai apprécié comme vous le voyez. Les différentes histoires présentes dans ce manga sont réellement douces, montre une évolution des personnages, des réalisations, des choix à effectuer ou tout simplement le fait de se souvenir comme mentionné plus haut. Garder une part de l’enfant que l’on a été, de celui qui voyait des « choses » que les adultes semblent avoir oublié, auxquelles ces derniers ne veulent plus croire. Chacune des petites histoires apporte un élément en plus, touche à sa manière et je ne me suis pas ennuyée une seule seconde. D’ailleurs, les personnages sont variés autant en âge qu’au niveau des métiers, des soucis, des rêves et il n’est pas difficile de les suivre, de trouver certaines scènes mignonnes, de se dire que d’autres font réfléchir. Au niveau du dessin, il vous sera connu si vous avez déjà lu son œuvre phare « Kids on the Slope », sinon ce sera de la découverte ! Je trouve qu’il va à merveille au titre, lui rajoute un petit quelque chose qui lui est propre, mais je sais également qu’il ne plaira probablement pas à tout le monde car les goûts sont dans la nature, variés et que ce qui me plait, ne plaira peut-être pas à quelqu’un d’autre. C’est logique car totalement subjectif. J’ai bien aimé contempler certaines planches, me laisser envahir par l’atmosphère s’y trouvant, profiter juste durant quelques instants de ce que j’avais sous les yeux grâce à la douceur et à la fluidité des traits avant de tourner à la page suivante et c’est, à mon sens, le plus important ! Du coup, vous l’aurez probablement compris, mais « Chiisako Garden » a été une douce et belle découverte dans laquelle j’ai apprécié me plonger, profiter. Une lecture dans laquelle je me replongerai probablement lors d’un petit coup de mou ou juste l’envie de retrouver des êtres auxquels je me suis tout de même attachée en une seule lecture. Ce One-Shot a été un véritable bonbon du début à la fin et le fait d’avoir plusieurs histoires ne force pas spécialement, à la relecture, à toutes les relire, il est simple de se replonger dans l’une d’elle juste parce qu’elle nous fait envie.

While AATM is my favorite movie trilogy, imagine how different this franchise would be if it was made by someone else than Luc Besson, but the person behind the Idea and/or the art director were still involved in it
Those two people i mentioned are: Céline Garcia and her husband Patrice Garcia
