[kayla-cartoon-wolfs-silly-stuff]

OMGOMG I JUST SAW THE WILD ROBOT AND IT WAS AMAZING, AND SO BITTERSWEET AND WHOLESOME AT THE SAME TIME- ROZ IS JUST LIKE ME FR.

ZIDJOEJFOEJFKFIR-

SPOILERS DOWN BELOW, BE WARNED.

SO BASICALLY, the robot is an ai robot and is named ROZZUM unit 7134 but nicknamed Roz later in the movie, and follows her tasks that she is given, AND she also doesn't feel anything like us humans and animals do, she was always wanting to try to help the animals, but they first saw her as a monster,, like she didn't belong there,, so it took a while for them to lighten up to her, as she did start becoming friends with a fox named think, and having to take care of a baby goose as he grew up, SHE STARTED FEELING SLIGHT EMOTION WHILE TAKING CARE OF THE GOOSE, she did,, question it though,, questioning the feeling of emotions,, even questioning what is love,, as think had helped her with that and guided her on her emotions. Knowing that she then knew that she actually started caring that as she was feeling more emotion, SHE STARTED GOING AGAINST HER OWN PROGRAMMING AND SHE KNEW WHAT IS WAS LIKE WHEN HER CHILD (The goose) HAD TO GO FOR THE WINTER, she had that strong feeling,, until he came back to her. I just loved that movie so much Idk how to keep going with my rambling on how good the movie was, y'all would have to see it for yourselves.

Why The Migration Scene Is So Integral

Their conflicting goodbye will never not get me emotional.

Hesitation so thick in the air you could be gagged by it.

It's why the migration scene is arguably this film's whole backbone.

The beautiful remorse written all over Brightbill's face.

Realizing he had rejected someone that saved his life.

By the brutal rules of nature, a runt like him shouldn't be alive.

Yet, here he is now. Left with nothing, but guilt toward Roz.

Not to mention, deepened love/admiration for her, too.

A good number of animated films normally have their main characters separate mad at each other after a liar revealed occurs. Thankfully, The Wild Robot doesn't do this with their dynamic, rather going for something highly meaningful and timeless.

What's most important is cutting the bullshit between them, prompting for a more intimate conversation of this magnitude.

Longneck was the fucking MVP, on that note. His wisdom brought the clarity Brightbill needed to understand what's important here.

Tragedy doesn't define a family's foundation of any kind.

It's choosing what to make of the cards you've been dealt.

That's why The Wild Robot is an astoundingly resonating story for many, myself included.

It's about looking through our inner turmoil to find something unbelievably beautiful.

Something that can never be taken away, unwavering love.

The magic of simple storytelling done insanely well.

akechi rank 8...

[deconstructthesoup]

Personal Ranking of the Fantasy High Moms, From Worst to Best:

Arianwen Abernant: -19999/10. She's not as bad as Angwyn, since she's convinced herself she's a good mother, but her "I just want the best for you" shtick isn't any better, and the fact that she's ignorant about how horrible she is doesn't make up for years of neglect. And she also attempted to rope her daughters into raising a being of pure nightmares because she lost her status, so.

Donna Applebees: 0/10. Conservative, racist, judgmental, only loves her kids conditionally... you get the gist. Also, she's absolutely a Karen.

Hallariel Seacaster: 3/10. Yes, I know, she's a MILF, she's got such an iconic vibe, she's a badass with a sword, but none of that excuses years of being emotionally absent from your son's life. She's not a bad person, but she unfortunately doesn't know how to be a mom. Sorry, Hallariel. I wish I could rank you higher.

The Last Phoenix: 5/10. Bird. She's a bird. We don't know enough about her except for the fact that she is the last phoenix, she started out as a "haha Arthur Aguefort is a crazy motherfucker" gag, and she gave us the incredible gift that is Ayda. I cannot rank her fairly, but given that she is Ayda's mom, she goes on the list.

Roz Last-Name-Unknown: 6/10. Same deal with Gorbag---we don't know enough about her for me to properly rank her, but we do know that she was a teen mom, and she's made the choice to reconnect with her son and be in his life. Props for that.

Sandralynn Faeth: 7.5/10. I am ranking her realistically, but let it be known that I love her so much. She is such a beautiful example of a flawed person who consistently tries to be better, and even though she does relapse into old behaviors, she's still growing---and outside of the serial cheating (that is a response to trauma, by the way) and occasional lapses in social skills, she's a pretty damn good mom, all things considered.

Cathilda Ceili: 8/10. She's the parent that Fabian needed, even if he didn't always realize it. She's sweet, she's caring, and if anybody hurts her boy, she will fucking rock your shit. (Also, the reveal of Cathilda being an incredibly fearsome and ruthless pirate outside of Solace was one of my favorites.)

Wilma Thistlespring: 9/10. She's a caring and supportive mom who writes songs, is sex-positive, and loves her son! Again, she does need to recognize when she's embarrassing Gorgug, and she needs to recognize that he's gotta learn how to be angry, but still! We all love her!

Lydia Barkrock: 9.6/10. While she doesn't quite get the full score due to the fact that her son was briefly an ass, it clearly was not her fault, and from what we've seen of her, she is a fantastic mom. She's a badass disabled powerhouse who cooks incredible spreads and cares about her son and his friends a lot. I love her a lot. She's amazing.

Sklonda Gukgak: 10/10. She took that spot in her very first scene, where she poured water in her cereal so Riz could have milk in his, and she's been holding it up ever since. Despite the fact that she's constantly swamped with work, Sklonda is literally one of the best moms you could ever ask for. She deserves the world and it's a constant injustice that she's not getting it.

Bonus: Garthy O'Brien, while having transcended gender and therefore not being able to fit into either of the "mom/dad" rankings, is an 11/10 parent---not just to Ayda, but to everyone younger than them who they've essentially adopted. Words cannot express my adoration for this person.

A commission from @roztheirken 💜

I got it a while ago, but I want to share it with more people! OwO

I am so amazed and happy with this one!!! >w< Look at the beautiful, happy family going ape shit at each other!

GHHHHH You made it so perfect Roz! Will be staring at it forever 💜 Your poses and anatomy are to die for!

[tlou-obsessed]

Okay so I'm gonna ramble more about 'The Wild Robot': spoiler alert:

Brightbill was never supposed to come this far, he's what they call a runt, the odds were stacked against him from the beginning of his life. He got raised by Roz and became the odd man out, they bullied him, no one accepted him. All that happens and he starts internalizing that hate..

But then the importance of a support system is shown, because even as Brightbill wants to quit, Roz won't let him, and not only her but Fink and Thunderbolt start supporting him too:

This is so amazing, because what Brightbill has been led to believe is a disadvantage Thunderbolt lets him know it's not, that it's even beautiful.

Not only that but he compliments Brightbills wings after making him, not letting him, but making him show his wings off, rewiring his beliefs.

Then you have the way Longneck took him under his wing among all those bullies, and all he did was be gentle with him and believing in him, and they did an amazing job in showing how important that is, making Brightbill take the lead to get all the geese out.

What made me even more emotional is that this moment Roz tells him: "Remember, there's nothing he can do that you can't". We see him repeating the same thing later on

motivating the rest the same way his momma did...

"Fly like you, not like them". You may not be able to fly like them, but you can fly like you, and it might take a little longer and a little more work, but you'll get there.

Its so beautiful to see what wonders a support system does. What a beautiful movie to all the people who grew up or are living with disadvantages that slow their progress, this gives some hope, that Endurance is a mighty force, we'll get there eventually.

[monsterheart-lionheart]

OP I AM BACK AND I HAVE WORDS!!!

Roz and Fink's relationship is honestly one of my favourites in the entire movie? Like the very first day, Fink waited until Roz shut off before slowly walking to snuggle her, all because he was so lonely and wanted her company! And the next time we see them? We watch him silently judge Roz and Fink for their neurodivergent weirdness (I love their relationship too btw they were copying him!!!), he just gives Roz more things to mimic, making a fun game out of it! I love that we skipped whatever slowly warm up period they definetly had, and showed how they became rocks in each other's lives! I was reading an article about moments in the movie (look I saw it on opening weekend and I needed a more spoiler review of it that YouTube reviewers were (fairly) not giving yet) and the person pointed out that when Roz asked what to do if the person you love isn't around to see it, HE DEFLATES!! HE WANTED HER TO SAY IT BECAUSE HE CLEARLY DOESN'T WANT/DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO, THE ONLY TIME HE GETS THE COURAGE TO ASK HER TO STAY IS AT THE END IN FRONT OF EVERYONE AS A MINI CONCLUSION TO HIS ARC, HE COULDN'T SAY IT TO HER PRIVATELY BUT HE WANTS HER TO STAY SO MUCH HE'LL SAY IT IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE FOREST!!

AND ROZ! SHE SEES RIGHT THROUGH HIM, LEARNS HOW HE LIES, AND BECOMES BETTER! SHE BECOMES A FAMILY WITH HIM AND BRIGHTBILL AND I LOVE ALL THEIR TALKS DISCUSSING BRIGHTBILL!

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk XD, in all seriousness your posts had amazing points.

YOU REALLY COOKED WITH THIS. I’m such a huge fan of them. Enemies to people who raised a kid together. They saved 2024 im afraid

[cs-cabin-and-crew]

Amazing art! There aren't too many- any really (yet)- fics about these three being the chaotic family they deserve but there are awesome fics about them being a family I can recommend! And Dad Fink!

never think i wasn't better alone by midnight dragons (https://archiveofourown.org/works/59315704). This has amazing Dad Fink!

A thing or two about love by Jaiden113 (https://archiveofourown.org/works/59251657/chapters/151102108). This one explores Fink's character and his relationship with Brightbill and Roz. Roz and Fink give off old married couple/siblings who raised a kid together vibes!

I Want to Go Back (And Ignore the Future Calling Our Names) by NeonLite (https://archiveofourown.org/works/59524321/chapters/151808926). Unlike the other two that are post movie, this one takes place before Roz leaves, with all the angst of typing up loose ends.

Please let me know what you think of all of these 😊!

You are my hero.

I will definitely be fangirling about this later.

My 'The Wild Robot' Review

Listen...

I know Queen already did a post review on this movie like a week ago. HOWEVER I just watched this master piece yesterday and needed to give my own review on it.

So if you haven't yet, scroll down to Queen's review and read hers because its amazingggg.

also THIS POST CONTAINS SPOILERS.

Anyway lets beginnnnnnn.

ADD IMAGINE HERE

This movie is in the prespective on Roz, a helper robot who ended up stranded on a wild island after her ship with hit by a storm. The first act of the movie contains bright colours and dark humour. This is because Roz hasn't learned empathy or compassion towards any of the animals that inhabit the island.

As the story continues, the themes get darker and the characters get more in-depth personality as Roz connects with her new family.

The story shows themes of belonging, motherhood and found family as Roz battles with her conflicting feelings. Should she stick to her programming or learn how to feel and love her new family?

When she learns emotion through 'Fink' the fox and her adoptive son 'Bright Bill" her voice becomes more human with expressions, her movements become more fluid and her decision making/problem solving contains compassion and emotion.

Roz also becomes conflicted about letting her son go. She becomes scared for his safety but understands she needs to let him go.

When she finsihes her "task" of raising Bright Bill, she's conflicted again. Her programming tells her to return back to where she was made. But her heart tells her to stay because the island has become her home.

Also Fink the fox was so sad, he just didn't want to be alone. He has this cunning fox personality at the beginning. But as the story progresses he's actually a caring fox who just wants the best for his new family.

The story showcases well how complex love is between family, blood or found.

I cried like 3 times during this movie.

Also the soundtrack was amazing. I watched this movie for Pedro Pascal and walked out with tear stains down my cheeks lol.

Ok thanks for readingggg. Might add more detail when I can.

I went to see the Wild Robot today. 10/10, 5/5, 100/100

It is AMAZING. One of the best movies I have seen in awhile. Beautiful, BEAUTIFUL, breathtaking animation, astounding cinematography, and some shots that will move you to tears, with the masterful lighting, the composition. WONDERFUL musical score, and just such an incredible story. I cried maybe 3 or 4 times. I mean CRIED CRIED, walked out of the theater in tears as well. The pacing felt a little bit quick in the beginning, but then it evened out. The running time is about 1 hour and 41 minutes. There is no part that really drags plot-wise which is great. Lots of action-filled moments, and lots of soft moments as well. Sometimes, when celebrities or Hollywood are chosen as the voice actors, it can go well...or it can go south. In this case, thankfully, it was the former. Pedro Pascal fit the wonderfully sassy and michevious Fink the Fox, and he was one of my favorite characters. Kit Connor was perfect as the lively and youthful Brightbill the Goose, and Lupita Nyong’o did well as Roz. There was a plethora of awesome supporting characters as well that, despite having decently limited screen time, still felt important and enjoyable. So many details in the animation, in the dialouge, in small call-backs and running gags. There are, again, so many heart-wretching, heart-pounding and heartwarming scenes, and a good amount of humor to balance it out that does not feel too forced (and a surprising amount of dark humor). Powerful themes (such as love, survival, community, family, acceptance), and wonderful development of the relationships between all the characters (Fink, Roz and Brightbill especially). I highly recommend this movie. If you end up watching it, I hope you love it too <3

Rating : PG

CW : Sequences of flashing lights, some dark humor/jokes, action/peril/thematic elements

[robins-treasure]

I watched The Wild Robot today!

It is REALLY GOOD!! This is honestly one of the best animated movies I've seen in a long time! The story is amazing, Roz is a lovable character, the animation is incredible, and it is very emotional! It has become one of my top favorite DreamWorks movies! If you have not seen it yet, please go see this one!

[armoricaroyalty]

Their relationship worked because Mary could usually talk Rosalind out of her bad ideas. The problem was that Rosalind was more than capable of talking Mary into her worst ideas.

author's note: Thank you so much to @madebycoffee for making these poses for me (also it is coincidentally HER BIRTHDAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY COFFEE). These poses are perfect and incredible and amazing and I am so, SO grateful to her!

In case you missed it: there will be no story updates for at least a few weeks! I'm taking a creative break to do some travel and take care of some IRL stuff. Be back soon!

Transcript under the cut.

Rosalind's townhouse // Feb 2018

ROSALIND | ...ugh! We're only getting coverage on gossip sites. And like, more than half of it is just about my dress. ROSALIND | I was hoping we'd get picked up by some of the entertainment journalists. I mean really, how man princesses are out there composing film scores? ROSALIND | You're finally getting positive coverage, though. "Rosalind was accompanied on the red carpet by girlfriend Mary Yokoyama." And look, the shield didn't even call you foreign! They're learning. MARY | ...babe? ROSALIND | Hm? MARY | There's something I need to tell you. ROSALIND | Go ahead, then. MARY | Not now. Next week. ROSALIND | [ amused ] Why next week? MARY | You've got enough to worry about this weekend. ROSALIND | You know, I've actually been thinking about the trip... MARY | When you leave, I wait by the window the whole time. [ laughs ] Like a dog. ROSALIND | [ laughs ] Darling, you are druuuunk. MARY | Tipsy. And I'd say it sober. ROSALIND | Focus. You should come with me! MARY | What? ROSALIND | This weekend! To Morley! MARY | Babe...I wasn't invited. ROSALIND | You should have been. We're engaged, that's family. MARY | Roz, is it a good idea to antagonize your father right now? He's already pissed. ROSALIND | Oh, he's got no reason to be angry. He already gave his consent, and-- MARY | Not about the engagement. About the interview. ROSALIND | Oh, don't you start. I already got an earful about it from my mother. MARY | Good. I'm glad you're hearing it from someone other than me. You knew speaking to the press was a gamble, and this time, you overplayed your hand. ROSALIND | [ sighs ] I can't say you didn't warn me. MARY | Yeah, and I'm warning you again: don't push right now. Wait. MARY | He won't stay mad forever. He's your father, he loves you. ROSALIND | Loving me means accepting you. I'm not compromising on that. ROSALIND | ...and besides, I want you there. Even if it's only a weekend. I'll miss you. MARY | [ softly ] Babe... ROSALIND | ...and I'm not above ordering you to be there, either. MARY | [ laughs ] Be serious. ROSALIND | Darling, I always am. ROSALIND | ...especially about you. MARY | Stopppp! Quit making me blush. ROSALIND | Never. ROSALIND | In fact...I think I want you to blush more. MARY | Ah-- is than an order? ROSALIND | [ breathless ] Yeah. Now lie back. [ They make out. Among other things. ]

Oh, my days. Animation is not dead! It is so not dead! I don’t know for whatever reason I was so skeptical to watch The Wild Robot, but it is an incredible movie. I knew Lupita Nyongo and like Kit Connor would be in it, and best believe, I didn’t doubt them, but I was like, “why waste my time?” You know? But today I had to watch a movie with my little sister and literally the first thing I commented on was about beautiful it is. Like animation, gorgeous, cinematography, gorgeous, storytelling, fucking amazing, voice acting—dare I even say… perfect? No, no using the o word for storytelling just yet. But still, I’m like…obsessed. I don’t know what I expected, but I did not expect to feel literally everything watching Brightbill grow up, learn to fly, or Roz turn herself in to her manufacturers. You know how I usually have like a couple of things I’d find weird about a piece of media? This time I only have one. And it’s really dumb and nitpicky because that’s just how I am with every story about animals living in kumbaya. But like, now that all the animals, predators and prey alike, like each other sort of, what do the predators eat? Surely they don’t wait until someone eventually dies and they’re like “well, rest in peace, Larry. Anyway who’s hungry?” Because that’d be hilarious lol. Anyway, The Wild Robot is a literal 12/10 movie, go watch it and tell me I’m right.

[euphoricnyctophilia]

I pressed play on this episode and was immediately greeted by Zelda kissing Blackwood :/ ( @humanlesbiangarbage and I were talking about Zelda’s moans. Mind your business)

Zelda answering the phone of her business like she is annoyed that they are calling her business during business hours

Her hair looks so good but the stupid fucking editors of this show have it so dark in the mortuary. I can’t see the rest of her cunty ass outfit. 😩

I’m so glad that they got her makeup together because episodes one and two were….

Ambrose massaging Sabrina’s leg while they sit on the couch always stood out to me because it’s true cousin behavior, like if you were my sibling I would kick you for putting your fucking feet on me but my cousin? love you, babe xo here’s a massage

The overacting by the fright club is not doing for me. Not you Roz you’re amazing.

Roz is so tired of all this witchy shit 😂 like what do you mean your fucking dead aunt from frontier times told you to go into the mine ?

Sabrina being like “someone’s looking out for you” and Harvey being like “yeah Tommy 🥹” and Sabrina’s face being like “damn bitch I put a whole protection spell on you”

I love that Zelda canonically traipses about the mortuary in her nightgown and robe for completely normal reasons

Agatha: a bunch of mortals died

Nick: you mean like her boyfriend? 👀

Hilda’s wig is really good and I’m not gonna look at it any harder because I don’t want to see lace

 Sabrina is a fucking liar. She didn’t even cross her fingers when she told Hilda that she wasn’t gonna get any ideas about resurrecting Tommy.

It’s a funeral why is Lilith walking around so sexily?? 

I wonder why Lilith protected the weird sisters…. She definitely knew they did it. - ok looking back it was so Sabrina would ask Prudence for help. Smart. Smart

Theo in his little suit 🫶🏽

“He bought all my school supplies” BECAUSE OUR FATHER IS A DRUNK

Lilith’s face when Harvey pipes up and says that Tommy did not love the minds is hilarious. I know she was expecting to come to the funeral and be bored as hell 😂

Mr. Kinkle is definitely drunk at this funeral

All I could think of is “I sebest- blehlehlehleh”

Michelle’s makeup looks so good at Dr. C’s. She puts makeup on like she’s trying to attract women.

Sabrina is so fucking stupid because Lilith was literally like “oh no actually it’s so easy. It works really well. It’s in my office. Here is the title.” And she was like “I’m a female manipulator, I’m so sneaky heehee”

I think it’s interesting that the race is witches and Blackwood is a sexist misogynist chauvinist pig. I don’t know if I’m making sense but it’s not giving. you’re literally a witch. Why do you hate witches?

I don’t like the way he’s looking at my wife

He’s doing this confession like he’s having an erection. I hate him

My wiFe’s a BitcH beCaUse shE’s deNieD me sEx wHiLe she’s in her thirD triMestEr

And Zelda you’re making me mad for agreeing with him. I know you’re horny, but you could literally have hate sex with Lilith.

Roz’s jacket with the little flowers embroidered all over is so cute.

Agatha and Dorcas are so silly and goofy in this little flashback that Roz is having

Sabrina said “Prudence come get your fucking girls”

Prudence’s waves look so fucking good, but I am once again mad about the fact that she had to wake up extra early to do her own hair because they didn’t have anybody to do black hair on set and that is why it’s shaved in later seasons

They’re so silly for sitting there playing pattycake stonefaced 

They are also so silly for repeating the exact threat that they made in Moon Valley as if it was a question

Sabrina is really Zelda‘s daughter because they make the same face before they bitch slap Agatha 

Lilith be like “hell yeah! a shadow let me fucking stand in here”. She like a cat in a box 😂

I really thought Prudence was going to tell Dorcas to shut the fuck up

Some of their anti-heaven phrases sound so stupid to me. “Unholy shit” stfu Nicholas

Prudence asking Sabrina if she sure about this and Sabrina saying she has to be. Like no you don’t you literally could’ve not done this.

 Sabrina is so silly for taking a seat while Ambrose chews her out. She was like “yeah let me sit down for this”

“the ritual didn’t mention anything about the murdered, sacrifice having to stay dead” she is the dumbest person in greendale

Ambrose should’ve went inside and immediately snitched on Sabrina because yeah she needs that ass beat. But cousin code. I get it.

I love Prudence’s accent. Especially since Tati’s regular voice is 🥺

Zelda is sitting at the table hiding behind her newspaper like she’s about to nut. Go upstairs you freak!

I need to see Zelda in this red dress from the back for completely normal reasons

She’s licking her lips and smirking like she’s about to get fucked. I hate her.

This seems inappropriate.

Zelda: “Entirely appropriate”

Me: ZELDA no!

They probably eat TV dinners every night at the Kinkle house. I would kill myself.

I know that Tommy is a gentleman because even as a zombie he still knocks.

QUICK PSA

over the course of the new few weeks a movie called the Wild Robot will be available in theaters

GO SEE THIS MOVIE

as you may or may not know, there have been less successful animated movies over the last few months may even years but the Wild Robot is supposed to be a sort of test by Dreamworks to prove to everyone that there are good animated movies without AI and that this industry needs to be kept alive

in this movie a robot named Roz crashes onto a land entirely inhabited by animals, as Roz explores the nature around her she faces difficulties like losing her leg

you should also see it because the cast consists of kit connor pedro pascal and bill nighly and many other amazing (voice) actors

[carry-on-every-neverland-magic]

The Wild Robot was absolutely beautiful in every way from the artwork to story to the amazing array of animal characters that were at once funny and wise and so full of emotion. Roz was heartwarming from the start her kindness to help those around her and she's now another robot to add to my list of ones who have hearts and feelings she's gorgeous and prepare to be very moved but also uplifted by this poignant journey. Her bonds are so real and also Pedro Pascal almost stole the show 🦊I can't recommend this highly enough there's plenty of jokes to enjoy to many of which only adults will appreciate lol and truly this was a breathtaking wonderful and heartfelt film that will stay with you long after 💚🍂
