IT WASNT!#YOU HAVE TO HAVE PRIME TO BUY OR RENT IT NOW TOO!#HOW ARE THEY DOING THIS AND WHY ! who in the world is watching this movie so much that isnt me that they have to charge for it now#on all platforms unless you straight up pirate it#and hey why would i of all people be needing to pirate a movie i own physically two times and digitally once#this is literally a personalized attack to me#and my mom was like i understand how you feel cause yeah thats really weird to do to a 1985 movie#and im like yes exactly i have morals and principles that make me opposed to this and its v maddening#and she said she understood and its ok next time we are having power issues and i have to shut down#that if i really wanna watch it i can rent it on her amazon account and i looked at her and shes like oh you feel v strongly about this#and i do! I HAVE HAD IT GIFTED TO ME TWICE ! I BOUGHT IT ONCE! WHY DO I HAVE TO RENT IT FOR MORE MONEY!

The real reason black hat needs a business:
#I’ve just kinda been noticing that the way I enjoy villainous is through it’s early iterations#i feel kinda bad about it#anyway black hat spent most of his fortune on a fucking statue that doesn’t even look like him anymore#flugs pissed because bh doesn’t have the money to pay him#thus needs to keep the business running despite having significant burnout#villainous#villanos#grimmz art#black hat#dr flug#paperhat#technically paperhat#I made it for paperhatober

I think the most annoying part about all of this watcher shit is that if they had just originally said they'd be releasing content earlier and ad-free on their own website, none of this would've happened. Like sure maybe people would be a little bit upset/disappointed they couldn't afford to see things earlier, but at the very least they wouldn't have completely obliterated their reputation and ostracized their fan base. They just went about this in such a shitty and demeaning way and I'm glad they apologized and backpedaled, but I sincerely don't know how they come back from this, especially after it took them three days to respond. I don't know how their audience will ever be able to trust them again
#im really glad they listened amd apologized and didn't double down but holy shit guys#you employee 25 people but clearly none of them are in pr because my god i dont even know how this idea made it past a pitch#you guys are nowhere near the level where this could even begin to be a good idea#and tbh the apology feels weird and insincere and so fucking scripted#it just never needed to be this way#and i dont think fans that were once so loyal are going go ever trust you guys again#i mean fuck ive been a fairly casual fan since the buzzfeed days and even i feel betrayed#i cant imagine how people who spent money on merch and tours and patreon or made fan art or submitted stories feel#it's just so disappointing#anyway good luck i guess#watcher

(No Obligation Whatsoever but if you *want* to give me a birthday present my kofi is in the pinned post or you could always draw a kirby :> after all I started drawing him every day in the first place just cuz I think low key simple kirby drawings are fun and there should be more of them!)
#kirby#daily kirby#my art#digital#hal laboratory#nintendo#my wife bought me tasty cake and my partner made me tasty pasta#and they both got me presents too!#I haven't had presents to *unwrap* on my birthday in a long time#(I've still had presents most of the recent years but it's all just like the 'hey buy me this' 'here you go love you' type presents)#(and my wife has been working for the whole day on my birthday the past few years too :c )#(but today she was done at a reasonable time and got to hang out with me!)#(so was our other partner!)#(it was nice :> )#(for real tho zero obligation re giving me things for real)#(like money's kinda tight right now but it's not like an emergency or anything)#(mostly thanks to our partner)#(and my wife thinks she'll be employed again by the end of the month)#(so probably any money I get will either be saved for emergencies or spent on replacing 15 year old clothes)#(rather than like groceries or whatever)#(any kirby drawings I get will probably be gathered up on monday or s/t in like a special edition reply roundup)#(anyway I'll stop mumbling now <3 )#favorites

This is a commission that I received from FTAngel on Twitter. And I am completely over the moon for it!! Its just so perfect that it makes me wanna SCREAM 💜💜💜💕💕💕👀👀👀👏👏👏
~Rambling below~
I don't commission other people to make art for me often (let alone fanart) but if I do, I always tend to try to find an artist with a style similar to the fandom of the request that I want done. So it feels all the more canon and/or real to me.
Full Time Angel is a Danganronpa fan artist who does just as nice RainCode work. I decided that for my birthday I had to get a commission from them. (well actually I asked for 2) I failed to get a commission slot the first round, but I somehow succeeded the second round. (which is why it’s a month late)
I was a little shy at first, but I decided to take the plunge to ask them for this. I needed a good pic of a tired/sick Yuma laying on Yakou's lap for my life to feel complete. You know I live for these two's dynamic, they’re literally my roman empire 💜
And I gotta say, investment well spent! This is such an amazing piece! It came out so wonderful, it may as well be official!! >w< Yakou and Yuma look like they're pulled straight from their sprite art! And the detail on the background is phenomenal! Love the blur effects on the both the plant and the background behind the sofa! I'm so happy with it!! I could say so much more praise about this lovely work, but I’ll stop here.
Bottom Line: I’m in so much love with this! 🥰 💕
Best Birthday art gift to myself ever! ✨👌
This was originally supposed to be an illustration for HIWTHI’s Ch7, but nah I decided to make it a different scenario. Maybe someday I’ll write it’s own little oneshot/drabble c:
Feel free to interpret this however you want. Be it as Yakou Fathero, or a sweet domestic moment between two submates.
And as for the second piece...
Don't worry. You'll see it real soon… 🤭
#whumpcode#not my art#rain code#mdarc#master detective archives: rain code#yuma kokohead#yakou furio#yakou fathero#art made for me#sick comfort#SO YEAH BEFORE ANY OF YA’LL SIDE EYE ME SEEING THIS ON TWITTER#YES I DID ASK FOR THIS COMMISSION OKAY#who else would lmfao -w-#its so obvious that its almost embarrassing x'D#its also scary how someone on twitter already recognizes it from HIWTHI#I guess im famous now? lol#either way yes I am so happy w this for real :3#birthday money well spent hehe~#danganronpa cg looking event#just picture one of the master detectives walking in to see this#its too cute I love these two and this whole team so MUCH??#also yeah you’ll see the second one soon…#very very soon… :3c

So, in your last post about the Percy Jackson TV show, I felt you lacked a few pieces of information/points. While it is true that the CGI in the film is pore and not constructed well, please note that while they have a large budget Disney has made a lot of restrictions to the show. In the original scrips there was a significantly larger amount of violence that would have needed more CGI. This was latter edited out of the script due to both restrictions and budget cuts for other parts in the show(sadly). Also to bring into prospective Sea of monsters the movie was made 10 years ago. Inflation has juristically affected the way money is used in films. Another thing to note is typically movie budgets are less than TV shows because they only are filming for one larger block of time. TV however they can take years meaning the acters need to be paid even for the time off set. This is not to say movies cannot take years, but it is to show that TV shows are filmed longer. I would also like to say I am genuinely not trying to be rude or unkind about your opinion and thoughts on the subject. I am just someone who has a different insight into the topic because of the things I know about the topic (I myself, am an actor and for the most part I think this is why the CGI was not the best as well as some of the script work).
I did actually calculate inflation for Sea of Monsters versus the PJO TV show. We know the PJO TV show allegedly had a budget of $12-15 million per episode. For comparison, this is the type of budget Disney+ usually uses for stuff like The Mandalorian. I was doing a generous underestimate for the entire season which comes out to $96mil (12mil per episode x 8 episodes). Sea of Monsters' budget was 90mil. Here's that inflation:
So lil over $120mil. Going for a top estimate for s1 of the show (15x8) that's $120mil. And as far as I'd heard that may also not include stuff like budget for casting for the show. They are still roughly in similar ballparks.
Regardless of this - as an animator, i can tell you there is no excuse for that wonky CGI trident other than it being extremely quickly done. That's literally a transform error, like ctrl+t type stuff. That is a lazy and cheap trident, probably because Disney notoriously overworks and cheaps out with their CGI. The CGI problems in the show are majority because Disney's being cheap about it. This shows in nearly all the CGI in every episode.
If they had to remove violence from the script and so remove CGI scenes with it, then theoretically they should have more room in the budget for more or better CGI where it already is in the show. That money doesn't just vanish. Changing that in the script gives them less of an excuse, actually.
Also, as i mentioned in my previous post - if you don't want to CGI hydrokinesis, don't pick the franchise where the main character's defining power is hydrokinesis. If you can't have much violence, DON'T PICK THE GREEK MYTHOLOGY SERIES WHERE THE MAIN CHARACTER BEHEADS TWO PEOPLE IN THE FIRST BOOK AND IT ONLY GETS BLOODIER FROM THERE. You cannot have PJO without some level of violence. It's kind of very inherent to the series. Rick actually talks in his original Teaching Guide for The Lightning Thief about how, in argument against attempts to ban TLT (in this specific instance for "being too violent"), that monsters in the books poof into golden dust for a reason, because then they haven't "died." There is no blood. They can and will come back. Because it's fantasy. That is the excuse for all the violence. Of which there otherwise technically is a lot of.
If you are doing live action PJO you are going to have to have some amount of violence (and there is absolutely a level that is perfectly suitable for a PG13 audience. The show right now is leagues below that level. PG13 just means parental guidance for under 13 - this majority has to do with concerns about children under 13 replicating behavior on-screen. Past 13 kids know better than to do that, which is why that rating is a thing. There are plenty of film/media/etc that are way more gory and violent and are still PG13). You are going to have to CGI monsters/creatures to some degree regularly (alongside demigod powers like Percy's hydrokinesis even more regularly). And between those two things, characters are going to have to look like they're physically interacting with the CGI at times. Disney is capable of doing this. Disney does have the budget for this for the show. They're not doing it because they're being cheap. Disney has done this before and does it regularly. This is not anything new. It entirely has to do with CGI not having as many unions. They have no excuses. If they didn't expect to run into these problems then they clearly did no planning for what adapting the series would entail and didn't think at all of what the series actually featured before diving into it. And they have no excuse for that! That is step one!
#pjo#riordanverse#pjo tv crit#ask#Anonymous#long post //#listen if a disney exec wants to pull out the LITERAL RECEIPTS and prove me wrong. show me the EXACT pjo tv budget and how they spent it#be my guest! show me! i *want* to see it! i wanna know where all that money went. im interested in that kind of boring stuff.#like cmon having LMM cant have drained the budget that much alone#so either something is up and/or it is HORRIBLY mismanaged behind the scenes. which they have no excuse for.#they have the means to have it NOT be horribly mismanaged#and trust me i am actually familiar with what goes on behind the scenes at Disney. I know how the sausage gets made and etc#like i dont personally work there but i *am* familiar on a personal level with it. this isnt just a I Watched A Documentary#like i have been personally toured around the studios and studio lots and told about all this type of stuff in different departments#ive taken classes from active and former disney employees as well before. i know more about disney than i prob should lmao#i know these things and disney does not have an excuse for what theyre doing here. it's just kind of sad and lackluster.#really though if anybody wants to show me an itemized list of the pjotv finances i will happily take it#disney? disney? pspspsp? i just wanna look

sorry ive been trying to avoid talking about the movie but oh my god has anyone else seen this because i feel like im going insane reading it. theres so much wrong with this why is there such a massive gap between some of these thats clearly only there because of how famous the actor is and not because of how big a role theyre playing . why is the guy voicing the main character so low on the list . why is the bottom 3 just every single woman in the cast . hello. its so dark in here
#thats not to say some of the ones getting paid less arent famous i just meant some names are more recognizable than others#i mean its not surprising the sonic movies have always seemed to have more respect for the live action cast than the voice cast#and among the voice cast more respect for the big name celebrities than the more experienced voice actors#but god damn#i know hollywood is just like this sometimes but that doesnt make it less ridiculous#i made a joke a while back that maybe the lack of knuckles screentime in the knuckles show is because idris elba is expensive#and now im starting to actually believe that because wtf .#are amy and rouge not in the movie because they spent all their money on the celebrity cast . come on man

kinda hilarious to me how u shit on an actor for making cameos and fans for buying cameos and you’re out here trying to make money off of your followers now hmmm
#this is about s*m from tiktok and twitter#like listen I don’t have any problems with ppl making goods and selling them#the issue here is the hypocrisy#with that creator judging others for how they spent and made their money#and now doing something that’s not very different at all

Legally, I am recquired to inform you fucking rule, and that if you disagree, sue yourself and act as both parties.
I really dont have the money to sue myself but if needs must
#ask#anon#just spent the day hanging out with my friends which i love#but at the end we got onto the topic of jobs and money#and started feeling a bit shitty bc both my friends earn double what im currently earning#like i really chose poorly career wise#need to go back to 15 year old me and tell her shes not made for school#just do a apprenticeship in computers or something#just get out of school#oh well#shoulda woulda coulda
