#I just randomly remembered that movie

[that-random-person-again]

I'm surprised no one has done a groundhog day like thing with ahit. Like one of the characters repeating the same day over and over again.

JJK (Toji & Mahito) x I Saw the Devil (K-Movie) Crossover

These two lines in the movie make me the most mentally unwell.

"I should have been the one to go. You needed your mother more than you needed me."

The amount of layers to this, oh my god. He's blaming himself for being alive. He probably wants to die. He genuinely thinks Adrian needs Emilie more.

And it's been YEARS since Emilie's passed away. Look how tiny Adrian is over there, he only just about comes about the bedpost. Gabriel still looks like he did in the pictures of when Adrian was little. It's been literal years. It could have literally been a full decade ago.

And Gabriel breaks the narrative here. He's supposed to be telling a story, he's supposed to be saying what happened in the past. But at this point, he doesn't say "your mother was taken from us" or anything like that referencing Emilie's passing. The story breaks, he's using a statement. I should have been the one to go. It's completely out of the story, because he isn't saying what he felt then, there's no "I felt like I should have been the one to go". It's just "I should have been."

Because he still thinks this. It's been about a decade, and his opinion, his feelings about this, is still "I should have died". It interrupts his storytelling because of how strongly he feels this way, almost like it's a fact to him.

And then he follows it with "You needed your mother more than you needed me." Again, he says this like it's a fact, like Adrian actually did need his mother more. Because he believes it himself. And this could be because of so many things. It could be because of the way people consider the mother to be the one supposed to care for the children much more than the father, or it could be that Gabriel himself didn't see how much Adrian needed him, or even that Gabriel didn't see himself as useful to Adrian. Especially because he said he should have been the one to die. He's essentially saying he was useless. That he was expendable but Emilie wasn't. He literally is implying he doesn't see any worth in himself regarding being a father.

And then it's not just his grief, it's Adrian's grief that has him desperate to bring Emilie back. He literally doesn't care about himself, he wants his son to be happy and doesn't see himself as able to do that. He loves him to the point of being suicidal and self-sacrificing if it would give Adrian what he need, all while simultaneously not seeing himself as what Adrian needs because he doesn't think he has that much worth regarding him.

Sonic 3 spoilers

I like that Sonic thought that it was Shadow growing up in a testing lab what has made him so angry when actually it was the end of that growing up (while yes in a test lab, it was safe until outside forces ruined it) that was the cause for his anger

Realizing that the reason I really liked the first HTTYD movie as a kid wasn’t because of any normal reason it was because I wanted to be Toothless

I didn’t want to be the one befriending a “monster” I wanted to be the monster reluctantly trusting a human. I didn’t want to study this fascinating new creature I wanted to be the creature being studied who’s just in it for the food. I didn’t want to be the one riding a dragon I wanted to be the fucking dragon because that’s infinity cooler

remembered when in 2022 someone did “how encanto should have ended” and it was a reprise of the family madrigal except it wasn’t about the family. pepa, julieta,agustín, felix, alma, camilo got NO mention. Despite the song being the family madrigal it only talked about luisa, dolores,isabela and bruno. so fuck mirabel ig😭 the original family madrigal song was a lot about her as well as entire family but she doesn’t even get a mention. Like where’s the growth? “The family madrigal” Reprise except mirabel STILL doesn’t talk about herself and also ignores half the family. Most of the song was just about bruno💀 and then people had the nerve to say “this would be a better ending”

One time in high school I was such a weeb it got me extra credit.

We had to make a playlist to go with a book we were reading in lit class and also write a paper about why those songs fit. Being the huge weeb I was, I chose mainly anime songs (mostly from Sailor Moon). I made sure to include translated English lyrics with the paper, and my teacher was so impressed by that she gave me extra credit 😎

My favorite trope in Christmas related media is Santa proving he’s real by telling someone, be they child or adult, about some hyper specific thing they wanted when they were a kid

reading that james whale was openly gay makes me so happy and also makes a lot of that movie also gay in retrospect. also its interesting that horace wears a ring but never mentions having a spouse at all.

For Round Goes the QNA

16- what’s your favorite book or movie you think everyone should experience?

I would say “A Whisker Away”. It’s a good movie.

This is super random, but I've recently been watching more German movies (I really enjoyed the performances of some Downfall actors and wanted to see some of their other works), and like what the hell is it with 2000s German movies that there's way too often one entirely random scene with someone having their bare ass out😭😂

Of course it doesn't happen in every movie but still often enough that it's somehow noticeable? I'm not sure if it's more of a time or a country dependent thing, but at least in my perception I just don't feel like this occurs as often in more recent movies and series especially in those from the US (like, I feel I'd have noticed if it did because I'd probably be lowkey annoyed by it😂)
