Ranking Cinderella Adaptations Based On How Much I Want The Dress

(In my own personal opinion, these are just the ones I like the best.)

10. Cinderella (2021) : Everyone's hated on this movie enough, so I'm just going to focus on the dress. In theory, I could see what they were going for. If it was just a fitted bustier, a hip-hugging skirt and a bustle, then I think it would have succeeded. But it's just underwhelming. That's all it is. Underwhelming. 3/10

9. Into The Woods (2014) : There's not much to talk about with this dress. I love the color choice, and I think the way it moves is pretty. But it just feels too simple. I know it's a dress that isn't crucial to the plot or anything, but it's still just a little too underwhelming. But I do think the sleeves are cute. 4/10

8. Once Upon A Time (2011-2018) : I think my issues with this dress are similar to my issues with Into The Woods. It just doesn't have the "wow" factor I'm searching for. It's a beautiful dress, and I would certainly wear it. But it just feels like the most generic Cinderella dress. Blue, sparkly, princess-y. Still cute though. 4/10

7. Another Cinderella Story (2008) : I'm a sucker for a red dress, and I truly adore this one. The neckline isn't my favorite, but I love the layering and the ruffles. It's such a daring take for a Cinderella dress, but it's something I would definitely wear. It looks like it would be fun to dance in. 6/10

6. Cinderella (1950) : Yes, it's a classic. It's simplistic, but so magical. The scene where her dress changes is one of my absolute favorites of all time. In this case, I love the simplicity. It really makes her stand out. I dreamed of this dress so much as a kid. 7/10

5. Ever After (1998) : Maybe I'm biased, because this is one of my favorite Cinderella adaptations, but I do adore this dress. While the time period is not my favorite in terms of silhouette, this dress still feels magical and dreamy. Empire waists and a slender fit aren't my type, but I would wear it simply to feel ethereal. I mean, the EMBROIDERY? The WINGS? All gorgeous and stunning. 8/10

4. A Cinderella Story (2004) : Yeah, it's a very simple dress. But it's absolutely breathtaking. I want to get married in this dress. Something about it is just so angelic. I feel like it should be paired with wings too. The femininity in this dress is something I truly adore. 8/10

3. Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella (1997) : Is it costume-y? Yes. Is it made of two clashing materials? Yes. Would I sell my soul to the devil for the chance to wear this dress? Also yes. I don't care how cliché it is. The sweetheart neckline, the opera gloves, the little bustle in the back, it's all so cute and just feels like a little girl's princess dream. Plus, I love the shade of light blue. 9/10

2. The Slipper and the Rose (1976) : Shockingly, I haven't seen this film. But I truly should, because the costume design is absolutely gorgeous. It all takes inspiration from the rococo period. My bias takes hold again, it seems. Sure, it's a lot of frills and pink, but that's exactly what I look for in a dress. If I was going to a rococo ball, this is what I'd be wearing. 9/10

1. Cinderella (2015) : The almighty. The most beautiful dress to ever be created. The dress that lingers in my dreams. Nothing can surpass this dress. Words can't even describe how wonderful it is. I do believe this dress is the most magical of all. It is absolute perfection from head to toe. Scratch what I said earlier about getting married in Hillary Duff's dress. I'm getting married in Lily James' dress. 1000000/10

There are a few things going on right now in regards to my writing:

Handling requests for full-length fics and slowly churning through the kissing booth requests (I love doing both of these, it is a favourite). So, so many kisses. So many tropes. I love it.

Starting Pollen for Ace while writing pollen for Mihawk. This has been an entertaining comparison to write for. We love seeing what neediness looks like on Mihawk, and little whimpers from Ace while he's holding back.

Carving out a fic gift swap for a beautiful mutual who wrote me a gift, which is turning out to be very cathartic and angsty to write for our beautiful Rosinante. Au, he comes back - but only for a day. It is heartbreaking, and I am mourning while writing it.

Writing some unhinged smut to cope with the trauma induced from the prior point. Also for Rosinante. Who doesn't want to see the big, soldier man jealous?

Forcing down the desire to write for a protective and possessive Doflamingo caring for his partner as they lay overcome with illness in their bed. I dunno if it's the health-scare drawing me to him, but the need is there regardless. Need him to be a force of nature while helpless and possessive: nothing he can do, comparisons drawn to his mother.

Writing some more 'Hey Doc' to get rid of the sillies.

If you have any questions or thoughts about any of these, please send asks! I love talking about these silly little guys 🖤

for requests, can I get uhhhhh sausage and/or fwhip stealing gem's hat in empires season one?

The sibling feuds between these three have got to be one of my favorite parts of season one. These three alone are the harbingers of chaos on a level unparalleled, and I wANT THEM TO JUST BE HAPPY-

How far are the bois getting in research? Depending on mod load, I know the research tree can get pretty complicated. I usually like to modify my game so they’re always Tribal Intellect, cause I like to make em really work for the study, ha.

A combination of ideological research boosts, expertise research boosts, and coffee research boosts means that the Jones boys can finish AT LEAST one research project per day, though it's usually much closer to two or three. I can't keep up with them anymore!! They fly through it so fast! I'm just researching pointless stuff now to give them something to do.

Pemmican? Sure. Harps? Sounds good. Deathrest? Maybe we'll need it someday. Moisture pump? ANYTHING, JUST READ!!

They are much too smart for their own good, though I suppose they feel they have a lot of catching up to do because of time lost to The Cube.

Birbna going through a molt... Maybe she'd let you help her with pin feathers. You ought to be very careful - they hurt when disturbed. But if you open the pins gently, you can free the stuck feathers and soothe the pain. Brushing Birbna's wings with a soft hairbrush, only to find out later that many birds only trust their mates to preen them anywhere but the head.

she tries not to let you see, not to force you to bear witness to this... mess. Binah knows she's hideous now, a warped beast of feathers and eyes and claws. you shouldn't have to deal with this. it's her burden to bear, her punishment

but alas, you're perceptive, as you always were, following the scattered feathers to where she's tucked herself away, hunched over and scratching erratically at her skin. she stiffens when you approach, then slowly slumps and extends one of her wings at your gentle request, trembling when you begin to carefully run your fingers through the feathers

you use the utmost care as you straighten bent feathers and remove loose ones, Binah leaning more and more of her weight on you until she abruptly sweeps her wings around you for a close hug. you're so gentle with her, so sweet and delicate despite how she's a monster now. or, more of a monster than she was. her claws run through her feathers, plucking a particularly glossy one with an iridescent sheen and pressing it into your hands. you'll keep it, won't you? to show that you're hers, and she's yours?

Maybe I'll start a crime, what then Bezos?

[LoR spoilers] Le Mát/Invertito

"The Fool (Le Mát) is often compared to the Joker in more recent card games. Traditionally in Tarock- or Tarot-esque games, it is a special card that can be played to any trick, bypassing the suit rules. It can neither win nor lose the trick; if the trick is taken by the player with the highest card, the player of the Fool recovers it to their own pile of tricks. According to most, but not all rules, they gives the winner of the trick a blank, worthless card from their own tricks instead."

My colonists are so rude to the new guy, Zonovo. Like, I get that he came to raid the base and do unsavoury things with that warhammer he's carrying, but now he cooks their food, and he's very nice otherwise! Leave the poor kid alone!

He does, in fact, have a permanent gunshot injury on his left leg, by the way. I'll have to remember to get Fafo to make another bionic leg to fix that up.

Mafia AU 12 going through it

[lzrsaugust]

He reached out, it can't be- "Tam?-" Familiar emerald eyes turned towards him. The blond fae opens his mouth as if about to say something -please, say something, anything--but was pulled away by two (was that three?) kids. He turned to give Lucien an apolegetic look, and disapeared within the crowd. Lucien can't believe his eyes, didn't want to. There is no way that was him, there is just- no way. No, it had to be someone else. Someone with the same shade of blond that resembles pools of gold. How long has it been since Tam took care of himself Someone with the same melodic voice, a low tenor in that quiet gentle tone. How long has it been since he was able to speak with that tone Someone with the exact shade of everchanging green in their eyes, one that captures every shade of the blooming forest and fields. How long has it been since he let his glamour fall through to reveal those eyes so publically It wasn't him. It can't be him. Because that familiar shade of green never, ever, looked at him that way. Never did Tamlin look at him with such- Where are you? Looked at him like- Are you ok? Like he didn't know who Lucien was. Can we talk? So, No. Why did you disapear? That couldn't have been Tamlin. Please leave. Not again.

When I tell you I LOVE amnesia fics.

I have a outline drafted. but like- idk yall. ill probs so something later

hope you enjoyed :D

MARAAAAAAAAA Hiyooooooooooooooo! <3

I bring asks for Elpis!!

if they are ever to get one wish definitely granted, what would they wish for?

what's an ideal day for your oc?

ik your ocs trauma have an impact on their character, but how would they be like, if they hadn't gone through that experience?

AND ONE FOR SNIFFY!!

is your oc the mom friend or the dad or the childish one in their friendgroup ? (idk how you would answer this xD)

BIIIIIIIIIM— hi! hi!

~

Elpis:

if they are ever to get one wish definitely granted, what would they wish for?

That's the best question for Elpis! If she was asked that, she would simply say something along the lines of "My only wish is to serve Queen Marika." BUT! In that Haligtree fluff fic we were talking about a while back —and that I still haven't written—, she was supposed to get a ton of character development and become more of her own person, rather than simply being Marika's oldest soldier. So, in the timeline where I actually sat down and wrote that fic, her wish would probably be for the Greater Will to disappear, and for Marika, Miquella and Malenia to sit down and talk openly and honestly.

what's an ideal day for your oc?

Lots of training in the morning, followed by a couple hours of walking, then a bath. After that she'd like to write on her diary and watch the sun go down. Not the question but I'm adding this anyway: since she's only a couple decades younger than Marika herself, Elpis has gotten into the habit of keeping diaries in order to not forget the eons past. Some nights she pulls out a random one and reads a couple entries, getting lost in the memories.

ik your ocs trauma have an impact on their character, but how would they be like, if they hadn't gone through that experience?

Unfortunately I haven't gotten that far into her backstory, so I don't know her trauma, if she even has anything specific. :/

AND SNIFFY: (my best oc, fr fr)

is your oc the mom friend or the dad or the childish one in their friendgroup? (jkdshfkjds, this answer might not be realistic in terms of snake behaviour :P)

Assuming Sniffy's friend group to be Rykard, Tanith and Rya, he's... childish..? He play-bites Rykard sometimes, and gives hugs to Tanish when she's handling him. With Rya, he moves all around her while she tries to grab him. Rykard was weary at first cause he thought Sniffy was stressed, but the snake never really moved away from Rya, rather he kept close enough for her to continue trying to get him, as if playing chase-the-snake or something :P

~

Tysm!! It's been a second since I put thought in my ocs, so I really loved answering these!

[soviet-siscon]

the idea of my parents knowing my headmates makes me want to cry tbh
