The Florida Project (2017)

"I can always tell when adults are about to cry."

[tinyreviews]

Tiny Review: The Florida Project 2017. Living in the shadows of Disney World.

It’s one of those experiential, thoughtprovoking movies. Not really a story imo. No character development or arc.

It’s an eyeopener on the lowest caste in the Disneyland hierarchy. A really good commentary on poverty and wealth disparity. Through the eyes of a child.

I wonder how they got permission to film though.

The Florida Project is a 2017 American drama film directed by Sean Baker and written by Baker and Chris Bergoch. Starring Bria Vinaite, Brooklynn Prince, and Willem Dafoe, with Valeria Cotto, Christopher Rivera, and Caleb Landry Jones in supporting roles, it was many of the cast members' first film appearance

Brothers

When June is emotionally beat (which she will hardly show) her brothers know how to protect her..sorta. No matter what may happen they will always try to cheer her up in a funny way or heartfelt manner.

I sound, yet again, like a PARANOID FREAK

But everything I see about Christopher Nolan's movie (regarding the media, not actually anything he has said) makes me think things are in fact happening BECAUSE of Epic: The Musical

A few years ago, aside from the PJO fans and historical nerds (count me in here), the Homeric tales were popular BUT not mainstream

And now you're telling me EVERYONE knows who Tiresias is? Who Elpenor is? Oh so now everybody knows now that Hermes is related to Ody and helps him in the myths 🙄

Obviously this was all popular before Jorge and Epic, he didn't create the myths and people have been doing work around them for a while (Lore Olympus, PJO and The Lightning Thief Musical, TSOA, Circe, Destripando La Historia's music videos) but we can all agree it hadn't been this... "Trendy", to put it in a way, in a while, especially and specifically The Odyssey

They might be hanging from Epic: The Musical's popularity here, because now the myth reached more people, and it might as well be a marketing strategy

A song from epic reaches someone's timeline/fyp/feed, and they look it up

"Oh, it's from a musical based on-"

Then you googled The Odyssey, you would find, of course, the myth. But also, Epic: The Musical all around it, and people creating fanart, people doing covers, the albums, the cast's shenanigans

But now, following that same process in which people google The Odyssey, all they'll find is ✨Christopher Nolan✨

AND I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP 😭 IT HAPPENED TO ME WHEN I WAS GOOGLING 😭😭😭

And also, why The Odyssey? Why not The Illiad?

I'm telling you it's sketchy

(I look paranoid, help)

[agentoffangirling]

"Christopher Nolan is making a movie based off the Odyssey"

Me: Epic: the Musical reference??

[hibiscusspunweb]

I cannot imagine Matt Damon as Odysseus in Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey movie for the life of me. I’m just gonna replace him with Jorge in my mind

No, because time runs different in wonderland and neverland

It was a tough decision having to leave her family.But in the end she She decided it was for the best, Since her family was in financial trouble and if she left, maybe it would give them More of a boost to get So thus she'd be got her new life in wonderland, However there was one thing she missed most of all and that was her older twin brother peter pan, Whom she was inseparable with.

Peter pan- Peter pan, Was always a playful person, However there came a time When He lost His older brother, Whom he was playing with and accidentally made him fall into the water causing him to drown and get electrocuted by an Unexpected storm In the water. After that day peter pan was never the same and tried to act more grown up, As a way to mask his pain. Alice Was quite side about her brother's death, But was even more worried for peter pan, Who is starting to become emotionless, But one day will peter pan was at the markets, He came a Cross A flying Whisp, That led him into the forest, And in the forest the wisp turned into a Female shape and introduce yourself as tinkerbell peter pan's, She said that she could bring him away from all The drama and problems going on with him at home, If he took her hand and followed her to a place called neverland, Where time never moved and you could stay young forever. Peter pan was hesitant about this, But then remembering All that was going on With his family being in debt, His brother dead, And some of their own family members , turning against his parents, And some of their own family members, turning against his parents He decided it was for the best that he leaves, So that may be his family can start afresh, So he agreed and flew off with Tinkerbell to neverland, And as the years passed by , peter pan kept bringing, Much wealth back to his family from neverland, So that they would never be poor, The only thing he regretted was never saying goodbye to his Twin sister Alice.

Many years had passed and alice and Peter PAN's parents had long passed Leaving leaving their older sister lorena to be the new owner of the house, She grew old and time as well with Yvonne. Alice and Peter's younger brother max's becoming adult Before them, But fast-forwarding to 2021 Alice, Having explored Almost all of wonderland, Was curious if she was Curious if she was able to go back to her home of london, And decided To crawl out of the rabbit hole To see what was happening above.

It was Peter PAN Calling to her, And thus the twins were reunited, Two years had passed The 2 Are now attending Arudon prep with their significant others.

Winifred darling is the niece of Anita darling, based off of the 2021 Cruella movie, And is in no way related to Wendy darling Who long passed away. Winifred is now the new love interest of Peter PAN, With her siblings, always following her on adventures through neverland.

Amandla Darling, Is the oldest Sibling, and Was once, A girl in wonderland herself, Like alice but in a different part, the looking glass, And she is also the future storyteller Of Alice and Peter pan's stories.

Winifred darling Is the second oldest And is based off of wendy darling a bit, But is more nerdy, And as a mixture of nurturing, And feminine Strength, And is willing to fight any pirates, Or be a big sister figure to any lost boy. She is Very close with her younger brother Kingston, But it's also enemies with him Seeing him as a intellectual rival with her in school, And the two often fights over who's smarter.

Kingston is the oldest boy and the third born, And just like his older sister is a huge nerd, But prides itself on it and see himself as the smartest in the family, Which Always gets under his sister skin, Matter of fact he mostly does it for the entertainment about her reactions, However as siblings they are still very close.

mkhosini Is the last born, Baby brother of the family, A k a the evil child, And he takes this job with pride. He isn't necessarily manipulative, Or a type of sibling who blackmails his older siblings, But instead will physically force them to do things that he's really passionate about, And this is kind of help the family, But it's also made Winifred and kingston Fear him the most because, Of what he's Capable of doing Even in the dark, And He uses Two his advantage, His older siblings are Looking After him, Using his Strategies sort of butts to make them Fear him so much that they can't even tell him no, But he's not all Evil, He does look up to Peter PAN As an older brother figure which Kind of Makes kingston jealous, But also slightly relieved to that his brother is off his back, But also scared for peter pan's sake, And at the end of the day mkhosini It's just a very energetic Person, With a bit of a violent streak with his siblings, But he still love them.

This is June’s siblings (I did not do that good for drawing it in the style cuz I started to get lazy 😔) and they all have a part and have a gem similar to June and it’s like for them to feel protected in a way, it’s a symbol and so that gem is the orange they have on them.

[only-my-unexistent-fiances]

Am I the only one who thinks/feels it's sketchy af that Christopher Nolan suddenly announced he wants to make a movie about The Odyssey when Epic: The Musical just finished the release of its concept album?

It could be a coincidence but also

It feels like big names stepping over independent artists all over again
