Killed The Family And Went To The Movies (1991)

After seeing that shitty frenchamerican movie about mexicans without mexicans in the main cast winning so many awards im glad Brazil winned this! I dont even care about oscar, this is HUGE!!!!

"I'm still here" isnt just a random film. It is about the military dictatorship, which on the contrary of countries like Argentina and Chile, Brazil didnt punished most part of the people that did and colaborated for all the deaths, crimes and opressions, and many families still and probably wont ever know where their family members were "buried/disposed".

And not only historic value and resistance against military coups (which are a constant threat with the rise of extreme right in Brazilian politics and military), this is a win for the lack of support and acknowledgement brazilian cinema has, by our own government and by gringos, that keep on pretending the world is just hollywood and some few european countries

My position is that gringo awards arent the reason we make films. But it does help a lot. It attracts investment, international film companies, something continents like latin america doesnt have compared to japan, korea, china, india and european countries own independent film and shows productions, so much they even have prestigious relevant cinema and tv show awards season.

Who is your favorite fearless hero 🐱

Guys im being so serious Puss in Boots the Last Wish became one of my comfort movies so fast SOBS I could easily picture Grim in Puss' position through the whole movie so I had this idea! It's just perfect lol. And who else could Death/Lobo be. You had it coming (And an actor AU as a complementary:)

I was rewatching the film 23 (I'm watching all the films that were dubbed into pt-br) and I have this scene playing in my head again.

I actually think it's really adorable how Kaito asks about Shinichi's choice of name and even has an idea of who he based one of them on. The way Shinichi blushes is due to the fact that he is not used to someone showing interest in the things he likes, Kaito never makes fun of him or calls him a "detective nerd" he just accepts the answer and doesn't ask any more questions. If we compare this to the way Shinichi's own friends react, always making fun of him or even Ran fighting with him and telling him to shut up, it gets to be sad...

Anyway, but right after Kaito's question, Shinichi even says with some concern that it's all a trap for Kid and that's quite cute too (he doesn't even realize he's worried about his thief).
