Messy doodles I made after watching The Devil And Daniel Mouse (1978). I have been watching a lot of 70s and 80s movies lately. I thought I would redraw some scenes from the short!

ngl, I'm beginning to take issue with how in conversations about anti-intellectualism almost automatically, the face of girls and women will be slapped on the problem.
#'all those tiktok girls who only like marvel films and' - why do you always say girls and women? are the guys filling opera halls instead?#'women in their mid 20s who still only read YA novels' okay sure that's an example and relevant discussions can be had#but it reminds me of the mocking tone in which people speak of 'chick-lit' to use women's interest as an indicator of lower value#while in fact women are reading more than men in EVERY single genre of fiction. Women are doing a lot of (often unpaid) labour#supporting libaries supporting theatres supporting cultural events#meanwhile there is a pretty big overlap between toxic masculinity and anti-intellectualism#(especially misogyny and homophobia)#especially when it comes to things like ballet or opera or musical or generally dance#in fact it is often the female investment in specific things that makes them less 'valuable' in general consciousness#for thousands of years the theatre was well-respected and a high form of art - and now it's a 'wife-thing'#the father who will teach his son that theatre and dance are for girls - how is that never an example for anti-intellectualism

Disney, releasing Wish: "so it's all about legacy--the new generation surpassing the old, overcoming the evils perpetuated by them, relinquishing singular power... and there's an old man in a tower, uh... animal sidekick, i guess..., ah... magic...?
Miyazaki, just out of frame, sledgehammer raised:
#the boy and the heron#not tagging wish 'cause i'm being a little acidic#this isn't to be negative in the slightest--I really respect both films--but it's interesting to see how visceral boy+H gets with its story#what evils have to be rejected and what they represent--and how characters and the world suffer from those evils--as well as how the whole#'rejecting' part goes. in terms of animation powerhouses discussing their legacies - disney and miyazaki both - I find it interesting that#one makes a pretty safe and nostalgic movie about imagination and dreams; the other is a long trudge through the land of the dead.#b+h is a hard watch - and a look at the legacy of a man questioning his whole purpose in the world - after his cultural touchstones#have long passed by. Mahito needs to understand his grief to keep living--but if he drowns in it he'll just continue the cannibalistic and#violent world of his granduncle. how the hell do you make art when the trauma of your entire life has colored it forever? How can anyone?#maybe after a while... it's time to detonate that damn tower and keep living.#this is to say#if you have enough money to make whatever you want#Make It Fucking Count

The X trilogy + "psycho-biddy" influences
#x 2022#pearl#maxxxine#x series#strait-jacket#psycho#what ever happened to baby jane#horror#psycho-biddy#hagsploitation#made this whole big thing which i still might post eventually but. in terms of aesthetics. this abridged version is better lol#i'm not gonna finish the other post tonight but consider this a preview of sorts#i can't stop thinking about what if they leaned more into the 'hagsploitation' aspect of it all lol#i actually find it odd + off-putting that they start and end maxxxine with a bette davis reference#with a big significant psycho cameo at the bates motel itself#and there's not really any payoff for those allusions!!#i think if you're gonna try to tie into a legacy of older horror films you should do it in a sincere way#because that just felt like 'elevated horror' bonus points + nostalgia bait#anyway. it's fun to think about the potential it had + how all the building blocks exist within the narrative to do something interesting#and i am a 1960s hagsploitation subgenre apologist lol#what ever happened to baby jane? changed my brain chemistry the first time i watched it as a kid#so maybe i'm just nostalgia baiting myself making these connections lmao#but it could have been so good#it could have been the perfect synthesis of the shared themes across all three movies#but i don't think hagsploitation gets butts in movie theater seats like girlboss 80s nostalgia vaguely true crime related shit#oh wait also i guess calling psycho a hagsploitation movie is like. probably not 100% accurate#but it is though. it's not an inversion of the subgenre bc the subgenre didn't exist yet#but it builds up a mystery 'psycho-biddy' character only to reveal that she's not the murderer#which is also what happens in strait-jacket so i think it counts!!#+ psycho is directly referenced in all 3 movies so it’s a pretty clear influence on the trilogy as a whole

We’ve gotten featured in another film fest - in Westchester New York!
12pm October 19th (next Saturday!) at The Picturehouse in Pelham. And I’ll be doing a qna after.
This is going to be one of the few times you can watch my film before it’s released publicly in 1+ year. So if your in the area! Plus arts fest is a fun event with lots of cool food and galleries around the area. And there’s a lot of other cool films by amazing directors showing in this specific fest
#film fest#thesis film#film festival#this one is run by a high school friend of mine! and it has some films by some past high school classmates of mine#and I’m getting back just in time for it! film fest after film fest for me as of late which has been fun#I’m pretty sure there’s no cover charge for this one tho? and if there is it’s very small#idk if you want something to do Saturday midday! I also hear there is a haunted house in new rochelle at the end of the day#if that’s something your interested in

Detroit: Become Human / Robocop
#Detroit Become Human#Robocop#dbh Connor#dbh Hank#Alex Murphy#Anne Lewis#Elijah Kamski#Crime busting lads of Detroit#In the fic “Metal of Man” the fact that Anderson and Murphy knew each other from his previous precinct was such a fun idea#I got a kick when watching Buckaroo Banzai to see young Weller AND Clancy Brown as world savers in a band so that helped this concept too#BTW if some of you folks haven't seen robocop and are interested before you go and watch the original '87 film be wary it's pretty graphic

Amelia's old design from Ken Duncan's pencil tests. From his Instagram: "Captain Amelia design exploration via an animation test. 2000 After spending some time designing Amelia, I started an animation test, as we normally do. Emma Thompson was the voice actor and the design had a similar facial bone structure to her. These first few drawings are from the animation test. After it was completed the directors viewed it and felt it wasn’t appealing enough. Perhaps she came off too “cold”, not enough charm. I drew over these poses with some new design ideas, which are shown in the following drawings here. Also, the last few drawings show my thumbnails that’d I’d sketched before animating, as I listened to Thompson’s voice performance (all on 2 pages). (Based on my sketches here, I’d always thought her hair was going to be black. I was surprised when I saw the eventual color model)."
Also, just for fun, side-by-side comparisons in read more
#treasure planet#treasure planet 2002#ken duncan#films#2000s#captain amelia#i noticed that her old design keeps w/ the old hair style she ended up w/ after going from alien w/ tentacle hair to feline-like humanoid#pretty cool#i don't hate her final design but it does suck to see she got a redesign in part to make her look younger#although i'll admit her old face proportions do look kinda uncanny (in an interesting way)

So I watched A Silent Voice with some but minor knowledge of the story going in. And right at the beginning when Shoko's bullying started I had the nagging worry that while Ishida would be redeemed they'd leave Ueno and Kawai as one-dimensional bullies. Painting the girls as the "real villains" while the male protagonist got to have depth. Anyway I just finished the movie and I would like to formally apologize to Oima Yoshitoki and Yoshida Reiko I should never have doubted you.
#i was unfamiliar with your game madams. i hope you can forgive me#never seen a film with a male mc become SO dedicated to complex relationships between its flawed female side characters#a silent voice#Ishida shoya#ueno naoka#kawai miki#the scene where yaeko slapped naoka was the peak of the movie to me#seems like she needed it too she'd spent the whole film up to this point basically BEGGING shoko to punch her#but shoko's too nice and it bothers her sooooo much. she's like HATE ME. and shoko's like 'i don't' and she's like WHY NOT???? FIX THAT#naola and miki are very interesting parallels because miki NEEDS to be liked by everyone and naoka wants so badly to be disliked instead.#which leads to both of them being pretty shitty but in essentially opposite ways IT'S GREAT#koe no katachi#i have no doubt that the fandom is still going to be INCREDIBLY weird about both of these girls but what's new#oh a flawed woman exists in a media property? yeah it's a real mystery what the internet's gonna say about that lmao

I think the funniest side-effect I have that comes from The LEGO Ninjago Movie being my entry into the fandom is that a small part of my brain will always associate Dave Franco with Lloyd - like I'll see a picture of Lloyd and it's a sudden battle between hearing his voice and Sam Vincent's
#i had to sheepishly explain to my parents the other day why and where i know dave franco from#(we were watching now you see me 2 - the magic heist film - which honestly was pretty good)#ANYWAy i was like “OHHH i recognise that voice - cool i can put a face to the voice now”#and they were both like “where on earth have you heard his voice before”#🧍♂️“...he voices lloyd in the ninjago movie”#watched their smiles drop in real time LMAO#they love me and my interests dont worry guys😀👍#tbh they should have expected it - they know im kinda obsessed with Lloyd#(i force them to look at every lego set i build afterwards/they've watched a couple episodes here and there with me)#anyway tis funny to me#hmiae rambles#hmiae personal#ninjago#lego ninjago#the lego ninjago movie#tlnm#ninjago lloyd#lloyd garmadon

so brokeback mountain came out in 2005, shortly after sam and dean reunited after stanford. do you think they went and saw it together. do you think dean thought it was gonna be a fun cowboy movie and was like sam we have to see this, it’ll be fun sam, please i love cowboys sam, and then they had to be subjected to the most powerful display of gay yearning, southern homophobia, and toxic masculinity ever put to screen and then just be normal about it after
#spoiler warning they would NOT be normal about it after#literally every single emotional problem that rules their lives is covered in brokeback mountain oh my god they could not handle that film#sam would be like hey dean what do you think of ennis. pretty interesting character dont you think. not like you at all of course#rambles#spn#supernatural#brokeback mountain#sam winchester#dean winchester#sam and dean#destiel#wincest

Do you ship lawbin?
I don't exactly ship them but I don't hate the ship either.. Just neutral, I guess? It's such a harmless ship but massively hated for no reason lmao.
I discovered it was a thing only after Sawyer7mage talked about them in a chapter review (good reviewer btw! some sarcasms he made here reminded me that he's a professional therapist pfff) Initially I didn't like the idea but some valid points have been raised in favor of the ship by him and others. Law/Robin don't have a lot going together so far, but public opinion can be easily swayed if Oda lets them interact more. Given the recent developments in late Wano, the chance is quite high.
Only problem is that these two seem to be drawn towards the type of people that are opposite of each other. Robin had flirted with larger and older men who aren't "conventionally attractive", and Law's buddies are all silly little fellows with little pride who like to pamper him all the time. But fanarts like this by @/takara_op did a great job convincing me that they'd be pretty fun to follow as a duo 👍🏼
Oda's depiction of Law and love and his character dynamic with women is an entirely different topic and I have a year old draft meta on this,,,,maybe I should post it some day 🫠 doesn't have much Lawbin in it though
#some wsj authors strict with no romance rule had gradually leaned towards subtle romance - often influenced by the people they work with#tpn author kaiu shirai for example made two characters interact in a sub-arc simply because his editor liked the two characters as a couple#a broody boy and a pretty girl btw#the editor had fanned the no romance policy himself while simultaneously fanboying over this specific ship#the same editor - suguru sugita - was oda's editor during dressrosa arc LOL#back to op - opla showrunner matt owens seems very supportive of Lawbin#then there's op film stampede director who definitely seemed interested#the chance of oda having lawbin thoughts injected by others from his surrounding wouldn't be surprising#he's been drawing a lot of romance subplot since dressrosa. almost in every arc in fact 🤔#I'm welcoming of the possibilities but rn I find their dynamic tad bit flat to really delve into#I'm more interested to talk about monet -> law but that's from my monet loving side#and no one in the fandom seems interested about their dynamic :(#but I digress#one piece#trafalgar law#trafalgar d. water law#nico robin#lawbin#law x Robin#asks#mine
