comic about v2 and the goal they'll never fully reach alongside a dissatisfying conclusion. intimate rivalry and all
(alternative ending comic. V1 dies instead of V2 during 4-4. V2 is narrating. V1 is dead.)
when i tell y'all my expectations were low, i mean it. i rarely see folklore handled well, much less ones that try to forge their own path. but y'all.
y'all.
this film is what disney should have been doing all along when they talk about "adapting" stuff. it's a beautiful example of a transformative work that still deeply reflects the culture it draws from.
it is a perfect example of a folk tale, up to and including the way the dialogue is written. it is musical on purpose with actual divergences into songs about the hero kirikou (made up by the children of the village of course).
and the animation.
ok ok it's not the smoothest or like. i dunno. "good" in the sense of flow of movement. but it is beautiful. no sameface syndrome to be found. body shapes all over the place. vibrant colors. it's fantastic.
my one complaint about this film is that i wish more people had seen it.
The one piece dub is now only 21 episodes behind the sub meaning if they keep up their current pacing the dub will offically overtake the sub in about 4 to 6 months which has lead me to the conclusion this means we'll be getting dubbed one piece episodes before the subbed episodes are even made huzzah
no new gameplay + no release date + no demo or marketing at Gamescom that's fine by me girl 😭 as much as I'm ready for Bioware to give birth to DAV a flawless release is more important
i think if scar was a magical creature he would be a sphinx and he would be incredibly bribable. sure you could try to answer his riddles three but if you slip him 10 diamonds he'll pretend he doesn't see you sneaking around him. "oh nooooo they got past me, i cant believe this!!" <- he has scammed thousands
Hey you, shut your mouth and look at my paw! DON'T FORGET!!
