#Every time I see an animated movie

[forsoobado137]

I can't stop thinking about nations appearing in animated movies and TV shows. Like imagine if Alex the Lion ran into a DreamWorks version of Romano in Madagascar 3.

I mean they probably have zero lines because it's expensive to get a nation to voice act (and they're usually unavailable). Except America. He'll drop everything to make a two-minute cameo.

England would appear in that one corgi movie that had Trump in it.

France in Ratatouille yesss. He could be the one who screams "RAAAAT!" In the second act.

Canada in Total Drama. One of the challenges would feature a cardboard cut out of him or something.

Japan would definitely show up in a lot of slice-of-life animes. Imagine an episode trope becomes "I bumped into Mr. Japan!" Maybe there's a Hetalia within Hetalia?

Russia in Anastasia maybe? Probably in one of the flashbacks.

the eah writers really could’ve taken daring charming’s character arc in the same way the a:tla writers took sokka’s character arc and honestly i think we were robbed of that!

like! daring meeting a badass girl (who could be literally any of the girls he’s shipped with because let’s bffr they’re all badasses), is low key misogynistic to her, gets his ass handed to him by her, finally starts to see her as an equal, and falls absolutely in love with her!

also sokka’s character growth is like WAY more layered than that but you get the point

WE! WERE! ROBBED!!!

got some custom 'the cat returns' merch for xmas (😌😌😌😌😌) because studio ghibli doesn't actually make any and that got me googling stuff again and finding out how the viewing public at large likes that film sklslsld. i can't believe 90% of people in the world have bad taste and hate it. to me it's the best ghibli movie

(me when people say that wh*sper of the heart, which i found deeply boring partly because i first saw it 15 years after first seeing the cat returns, is better and the original™️ and if i enjoy tcr i should watch that:)

Speed Racer (2008 by the Wachowski sisters)

If you slept on this movie, you should definitely go watch it, because it absolutely slaps.

one of the things that will always destroy me is people believing that good story = darker/more mature/more sexual. this belief has ruined so many stories that could have been amazing & has prevented almost everyone from enjoying other really good stories simply because the age range it's aimed at is one they believe can't have complex themes, characters, plot, etc etc. they don't believe they can be moved by something a publisher or studio decided is for kids & so write it off without even thinking about it. biggest curse of being a writer who actually loves stories & telling them is that literally no one else cares in the most pessimistic, higher-than-thou, capitalism brainrot way you can imagine. & it's all automatic. because that's just what you're taught.

i was today years old when i found out disney used to say 'we're not releasing our films on home media, we'll just re-release them into cinemas so people can't own them and have to pay full price every time they want to see them' and i'm not surprised but it has deepened my burning hatred for that stupid cringe ass corporation

About to go to the Peace Corp and I am struggling to decide which books and movies to download to keep me entertained for the next TWO years

I imagined Regis or Cor or anyone from the Citadel asking Drautos if he knew about the Conqueror going to Galahd, and. Drautos would say no. Because he didn't know.

And for the Insomnians that's reasonable, this happened centuries ago, not everyone is interested in history, for all they know the fleet never made it to the islands.

Except Drautos is pretending to be one of Galahkari. One of the people who hold grudges like it's a national sport and discuss historical events like it's yesterday gossip. Whichever Glaive was nearby to hear this would realise that the Captain is being honest about not knowing - and that he's definitely lying about his past.

Axis did not want to be here. His youngest was sick again and had both him and Librita up for most of the night. Thank the spirits for his wife's ability to work from home. Otherwise one of them would have had to quit their job a long time ago.

He supressed a yawn and did his best to ignore Captain Drautos, who was doing some sword drills not too far away from him. Blearily blinking down at the clipboard in his hands, Axis distantly wondered which style of pildura the Captain would prefer. Gekkan maybe? Certainly not puhna. He shook his head. This was not the time to think about it. If he could get his work done in a timely manner, maybe he would be able to go home sooner and help his wife look after Isoro.

Crouching down to inspect the damage done to the stone wall of the training ground, Axis nearly missed the Lord fucking Marshal himself approaching. Suddenly he was wide awake, tracking the man's movements out od the corner of his eyes, while trying to look like he was still concentrating on his work.

"Titus, a word please," the Marshal said once the Captain had stopped his current moveset.

"Has there been an attack?" There was an undercurrent to that question Axis couldn't place.

"No," the Marshal said and something within Axis relaxed. "Regis, Clarus and I are just curious about something."

By the spirits, Axis had never heard the Marshal say so many words in a row.

Captain Drautos rolled his shoulders and sheathed his sword, stance relaxing. Axis couldn't see his expression, but for someone who often insinuated that the King and his men didn't really care for the Glaive beyond their capabilities to be a meat shield, his everything seemed awefully friendly.

"If this is about Shield Hearts again, the answer is still no."

Axis nearly did a double take. Like, what? What by Pitioss was Shield Hearts? The Marshal honest to the spirits snorted. Axis noted down the need for five new stones for this section of the wall and started to search for non-existant cracks in dirt floor.

"Clarus still hasn't given up on it, but no. Do you know about the diary they found not too long ago?"

"The one that mentions the Conqueror? Hard not to have heard about it."

"We were wondering if you know something about it. Do you Galahdians have any records about it? It would be interesting to know if the Conqueror really made it to Galahd or not."

Now Axis wasn't even pretending to work. What would the Captain say? Would he actually tell this outsider the story? Hopefully not. He chanced a look at the two men. Captain Drautos looked contemplative.

"I'm sorry," he said, and if not for his next words, Axis would have sighed in relief. "I don't know anything about that. This was also the first time I heard about it. And with Galahd's conquest I don't know if any records survived."

"I see. What a pity."

Fuck. The Captain was serious. He was actually serious about this. He did not know. How could he not know? Every Galahkar grew up hearing about the Black Ships, the attempted conquest and the murder of Perses Ulric.

What the fuck?

He scribbled something on his clipboard - he had no idea what - and marched out of the training ground as inconspicuously as possible. He needed to talk to Luche.

Excuse me but…. the ambiance?!?

Ok we all agree that the animation is beautiful, the boys are adorable, April looks awesome, etc. (A moment of silence for Leo’s braces… )

But can we talk about this little moment? And more importantly the music? How well it fits the scene? How it completes the vibe like a pretty bow on top of a nicely wrapped gift?

Why is it so… soothing?

It really feels like you’re a kid and you’re out with your friends and having fun, doing stupid things that make you laugh way more than they should, not a care in the world, relaxed… It’s perfect. I love it so much. It makes my anxiety melt away.
