Personagens #2

Como Mörkbrytare, sim o nome é estranho, como todo nome de livro de fantasia, eu pensei no Ezra Miller. Apesar das últimas polêmicas em relação a ele e o filme do Flash que foi levemente assustador e engraçado por causa dos memes ao redor, acho ele perfeito.

Como a Astrid, não pude deixar de pensar na Charlize Theron. Ela, como outros atores, inspira essa personagem em questão e eu não pude deixar de colocar ela aqui. E depois do papel dela em Mad Max e Atômica, impossível não pensar nela como a Astrid.

Como Eirwen, imaginei a Cate Blanchett, ainda mais depois do papel dela como Galadriel em Senhor dos Anéis. Além de que ela é uma atriz praticamente perfeita pra esse papel em tds os quesitos que eu imagino.

Esse personagem em si, ainda não tem nome. Ele não foi nomeado durante a história, e é claro que em algum momento ele vai ser nomeado, porém eu não sei que nome dar a ele ainda, então, paciência. Mas depois que eu vi o Richard Madden como o príncipe da Cinderela, eu não pude pensar em alguém melhor.

Não achei alguém tão perfeito, então, acabei, no final, por escolher o Fionn Whitehead como Magni, já que ele tem uma carinha de um jovem que se acha demais. Não que ele seja, mas se quiserem pensar em alguém melhor, só me falar, eu aceito.

Talvez...? Bill Skarsgård como Modi. Só pelo fato de ser meio tímido e ele ser tão presunçoso quanto o Magni, mas ele não demonstra, ele tem um sentido mais humilde que o Magni.

Como Frigg, a famosa esposa de Odin, eu pensei na Helen, ainda mais depois de ver ela jovem, eu achei perfeita. Até porque, por Frigg ser uma deusa de grande renome e conhecimento, só de olhar a Helen, fiquei caidinha.

Quando eu vi o Alexander Skarsgård como "Northman", eu sabia que ele seria perfeito como Týr, o deus da guerra na mitologia nórdica. Tanto pela estatura como pela presença física.

Como Baldr, pensei que poderia ser o Armie Hammer. Ele tem aparência distinta e uma capacidade de transmitir uma presença luminosa e calorosa, como o próprio deus Baldr, por isso achei perfeito.

Como o Sven, pensei no Jacob Tremblay. Apesar de que, em aparência, ele não seja tão parecido com o Sven, como eu descrevi, a sua expressão facial é adequada para transmitir a curiosidade, confiança e humildade do personagem Sven.

Como Theo, o irmão da personagem principal, eu pensei no Tom Hardy. Principalmente por causa dessa primeira foto (no qual eu esqueci o nome do filme) dele lutador, o que faz sentido, pq o personagem em si é lutador de boxe e tb o Hardy possui a presença e a intensidade necessárias pra retratar o Theo como um personagem agressivo e protetor.

Agora o Emrys... eu, basicamente, me inspirei no Astarion do Neil Newbon pra fazer o meu personagem. Então, acho q já sabem mais ou menos como ele, a diferença é a história dele q muda, claramente e algumas outras coisas.

Basicamente é isso... são todos os personagens que eu escrevi até agora estão aqui. Quando tiver mais, eu adiciono, oq provavelmente vai ter, é inevitável, assim como o Thanos.

Soso se despedindo aqui e até a próxima postagem, que talvez seja o prefácio, ai vem os capítulos e tudo mais.

Ah, quase esqueci... n decidi ainda se vai ser no começo ou no final, mas td capítulo vai ter um pequeno dicionário, já que algumas palavras da história são em uma língua morta, então, é só pra ajudar vocês.

I won't lie, having a Borderlands movie be directed by Eli Roth is kind of wild.

But I'm getting this un-shakeable "We have Guardians of the Galaxy at home" vibe out of it that's both weirding me out and turning me off of it quite badly. It's only accentuated by having big names like Cate Blanchett and Jamie Lee Curtis in it. What is going on!?

Y'know...between this and that Gran Turismo movie directed by Neil Bloomkamp, I am severely worried about the status of directors and work at the movie industry these days. Should we be ready to hear Steven Spielberg is making a Fortnite movie? Oh...wait no, Ready Player One, nevermind.

Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio will be released on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on December 12 via The Criterion Channel. James Jean designed the cover art for Netflix's 2022 stop motion animated adapation of Carlo Collodi's 1883 novel.

Guillermo del Toro co-directs with Mark Gustafson from a script by del Toro and Patrick McHale (Over the Garden Wall). Ewan McGregor, David Bradley, Gregory Mann, Burn Gorman, Ron Perlman, John Turturro, Finn Wolfhard, Cate Blanchett, Tim Blake Nelson, Christoph Waltz, and Tilda Swinton star.

Pinocchio has been digitally mastered in 4K, supervised by del Toro and Gustafson, with Dolby Atmos sound. It's presented in 4K with Dolby Vision HDR.

Special features are listed below, where you can also see the full packaging.

Special features:

Handcarved Cinema - Making-of documentary with co-directors Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson and cast and crew (new)

Directing Stop-Motion - Featurette with Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson (new)

Interview with Guillermo del Toro by film critic Farran Smith Nehme (new)

Interview with curator Ron Magliozzi on The Museum of Modern Art’s exhibition devoted to the film (new)

Featurette on the 8 rules of animation that informed the production (new)

Panel discussion with Guillermo del Toro, Mark Gustafson, production designer Guy Davis, composer Alexandre Desplat, and sound designer Scott Martin Gershin, moderated by filmmaker James Cameron

Conversation with Guillermo del Toro, Mark Gustafson, and author Neil Gaiman

Booklet with essays by film critic Matt Zoller Seitz and author Cornelia Funke

A classic tale is reborn through the inspired imagination of cinematic dream-weaver Guillermo del Toro, directing alongside Mark Gustafson. Realized through boundary-pushing, breathtakingly intricate stop-motion animation, this dark rendering of the fable of the puppet boy and his maker daringly transfers the story to Fascist Italy, where the irrepressible Pinocchio gradually learns what it means to be human through his experiences of war, death, and sacrifice. This Pinocchio imbues the oft-told tale with a bold new resonance about living with courage and compassion.

Pre-order Pinocchio.

I was thinking about how due to Tolkien's love of Norse Mythology there are some obvious similarities between Loki and Sauron. That got me thinking about what Norse mythological would fit Galadriel? Obviously, her Christian parallel is the Virgin Mary. After much thought, I think she reminds me of the Vanir goddess Freya ("Lady"). Freya was not only the goddess of beauty and fertility, but also Queen of the Valkyries, and associated with death. She is much of a fierce warrior as she is a divine beauty. She is the Goddess of Magic, specifically, "seidr," a femme-centered magic that involved shamanism, weaving spells, healing, and manipulating fate. Apparently, Freya taught Odin seidr, leading to him having genderfluid aspects, same as Loki. It should also be noted that while physical descriptions of Freya are rare, some scholars have claimed she was supposed to be a blonde (like Gal), redhead, or strawberry blonde. She was definitely noted for her independence, pride, and having a missing husband, Od (possibly an aspect of Odin). She had her own domain and hall, Sessrumnir, resembling how Gal rules Lotherien in her own right. She also had lovers (Haladriel?), and a close relationship with her twin brother, Freyr (reminds me of Finrod).

I've thought about Loki and Sauron being similar (and since I'm also a huge fan of Loki, especially Tom Hiddleston's version) many times!!! 😀 This is going to be a long post but have been meaning to write this at some point. Tolkien was hugely inspired by Norse myth for LOTR and Middle Earth so it wouldn't surprise me at all if Loki was an inspiration for Sauron. Plus, in the myths Loki also had reddish hair and green eyes so there's a connection between that and "Rings of Power" with the Halbrand form of Sauron. LOL 😏 Marvel too has added so much to Loki in both the comics and the MCU. I realized watching the "Loki" series and the films that he's gotten the redemption arc that many of us have given Halbrand/Sauron in our fics and I'm even more excited for tonight's season 2 finale of "Loki" and what might be coming for the films. It seems like what I wish could happen for Halbrand/Sauron is happening with Loki, including a Haladriel like ship with Loki and Sylvie.

That's a great comparison for Galadriel too. She does fit a lot with Freya. I've read multiple versions of Norse myth, especially Neil Gaiman's and Tolkien wrote his own too which I plan to read soon, and I can see it. Will point out too there's long been a theory in Norse myth that Freya and Frigg (Frigga in Marvel) are the same person and she had a split personality with each version. Frigg is Odin's wife (and Thor and Loki's mom in Marvel) and that queenly part of her fits there too.

Also I feel like Galadriel could also be a mashup of both of Loki's wives. His first wife Angrboda was a Jotun (frost giant in Marvel), a power being that Loki was also half as he was also half Asgardian. Angrboda is also a powerful witch and was the mother of Loki's 3 oldest children: Fenris the Wolf, Jorm the world serpent, and Hela the goddess of Hel (played by Cate Blanchett, the other Galadriel in the MCU but switched to be Odin's daughter and Thor and Loki's sister). When Loki became a god and joined Odin he left them to start his new life and their marriage ended.

Then his 2nd wife Sigyn is actually who I normally ship Loki with both in Norse mythology and Marvel (except the MCU as it seems like they merged his wives and his other Marvel love interest Amora/Enchantress into Sylvie as a mashup character even though Sylvie is also another universe's Loki LOL). Sigyn is normally drawn as being a blonde or red haired Asguardian and she's devoted to him even though in Marvel Comics' version he tricked her into marrying him by pretending to be her fiancé and she still fell in love with him after that. LOL (And I've seen Haladriel fics with this exact storyline.) She ends up becoming the Goddess of Fidelity to his God of Mischief (or Stories as he becomes this redemptive form in Marvel and maybe soon in the MCU depending on tonight's finale and it reminds me of Mairon). In the Marvel comics he also teaches her to become a sorceress. They also have two sons together though depending on the story one or both die tragically (which reminds me of Celebrian), and one is a werewolf.

So yeah I see so much of Norse mythology in Tolkien's work and it's fun to piece all the inspirations together like this. Plus, I'm getting 3 new romance and non-romance novels about Loki with Angrboda, Sigyn, and Amora soon and whatever that new Marvel novel out next year "What if Loki was Worthy?" too so more to read and compare soon.

ETA: I've taken out the tags that relate to Loki and the other Norse mythology characters as I got hate directed towards me from fellow "Loki" fans all because a lot of them don't like what Marvel and the show has done. Just wanted it to go in my blog's tags so it's easier to find and organized but kept the "ROP" related tags since we were talking about that originally as it relates more to Sauron and Galadriel.

Areas of Interest:

- Right now, a severe obsession with Greek Mythology because of the PJO series and I'm also reading the Iliad after reading Song of Achilles (no, i cannot under any circumstances be normal about him and Patroclus.)

- Classic literature and poetry : I wanna read as many classics as I can because why not and also school didn't allow me to read so I'm making up for lost time. (I'm still trying to finish Pride and Prejudice, but my adhd keeps saying noooo)

- Film : I watch a lot of films, movies and series, sometimes I watch mainstream stuff. Not just to space out, but because i enjoy complex storylines and excellent directing.

(currently watching Gossip Girl and... I have my reservations but..it's actually pretty interesting). I'm a fan of period dramas, fantasy and anything that has to do with magic, sci-fi and psychological thrillers.

- The Old Guard and books by Neil Gaiman : recently graphic novels have become something I'm completely obsessed with... I can't explain how much i love graphic novels and comics right now!!!! Just *high pitched scream*

- Also non-western literature:

I'm a firm believer in knowing where you came from in order to know where you're going.

gimme poetry about the indentured Indians, gimme stories about the poc who have had to fight to be seen, gimme gimme oral tales from ethic tribes, let me see the diaspora of your people around the globe

i wanna hear about everyone's history. Where you came from, why they chose to step onto the ship, whether they had a choice. Tell me about your aunty's recipe for a certain dish, i bet you there's a story behind it.

- I'm really into fashion rn after spending my entire adolescence wearing the same tshirt and jeans. will i be normal about it? Absolutely not.

- queer theory and history and law even if i don't wanna admit that out loud. But wow, is the law actually interesting...

What else am i interested in??

- Food. Especially Asian foods and the absolute wonderful variety every culture has to offer. So far I've had a good intro to Korean foods such as gimpap and baobuns, I've tried Chinese oudon noodles which i would happily die for oh and i tried ramen too.. But i needa know more so please gimmmmme gimme your favourite Asian dishes, especially if they're spicy.

- Music : i play the guitar and piano and cannot be normal about jazz, blues or classics. Yes, Asra is right, Pop music is my area of expertise until you ask me about relevant songs. ( BUT classical music is Asra's area of utter and complete expertise. Seriously any questions on classical music and composition send it to Asra)

-Art: i freaking love art ( Van Gogh my love, Fauvism my detested, animation because of Abu (a friend not the monkey from Aladdin.) my painting skills are something to be worked on but i can draw!

- I'm very normal about Cate Blanchett in any of her films.

- i enjoy reading and listening to explanations on different beliefs, cultures and psychology, i really like understanding how the world works.

-physics even though I failed math and never did physics but wooow do i love applying it to Formula One.

- Oh yeah, formula one 🏎️

- i love animals, i will befriend your pets.

-Travel : honestly i wanna see every inch of the world and eat alllll kinds of foods and leave a footprint in a German forest. The ocean beckons, the sky will carry me gently, the mountains sing for me to join them.

My areas of Interest will change as i grow and my brain decides what my next hyperfixation will be. There's a good chance imma inflict it upon everyone here😗
