That moment when the animators flex that close-up animation to let us privately investigate a character's personality or either show a tintillating state of insanity of the beloved character's meanwhile blessing us with the specific knowledge of their irises' colour full HD maximum details

(plus allowing me to finally have the perfect pantone's shade to apply in fantasy scenarios before going to sleep )

(eyes...pretty eyes...)

If I was isekai-ed into Toontown, while possibly meeting the blorbos above, visualise me like Sid from Ice Age in the scene when he goes "you have beautiful eyes" one inch from Manny's face

My brain just exploded.

Rourke isn't as evil as people think.

Hear me out on this

Rourke may not have gone through with the plan if he actually had any idea of what the Big Shiny Thing was actually capable of.

Remember, Rourke thinks it's just "some kind of a diamond" as Milo puts it. Even if Thaddeus had told him otheewise before, he clearly didn't believe it, as shown by the line "What's to know? It's big, it's shiny, it's gonna make us all rich." He's not buying Milo's "you don't know what you're tampering with", because in his mind, Milo is just trying to intimidate him out of his plan. Since Rourke doesn't know about Milo reading the murals (thinks he just went swimming), he thinks Milo's BSing the whole "it keeps the people alive thing". That's important too.

Rourke does not ever truly believe the crystal is keeping the people alive.

And why would he? The idea sounds completely absurd to someone with zero knowledge beyond "it's big and shiny". Even after Kida is transformed, though he's a little more wary of the crystal, he hides it and tries to go through with the original plan, because that's what he's been trained to do, to see a mission through to the end no matter what obstacles arise or what personal thoughts/feelings he has (Kida is an unfortunate casualty of the kind someone like Rourke is way too used to, a civilian caught in the midst of military combat, though to him, she's a civilian from the Enemy side). But he still does not believe in its connection to the people.

He also doesn't ever know that the crystal itself can be a weapon, and a catastrophically destructive one at that. Milo only finds this out after Rourke leaves, when he visits the dying king (if the mushroom cloud at the beginning of the film is any clue, the thing is like a very, very powerful nuke). And had that information been given, the difference between "diamond" and "superweapon" might have been drastic enough to at least make him pause and consider the outcomes. He'd sell a giant shiny rock to other countries, but he doesn't seem like someone who would knowingly give an enemy (or potential enemy) of the US a nuke-on-steroids during a war (WWI started a few months before the film takes place). And if he'd taken that pause, it may have been enough time to convince him of just what the crystal truly is to Atlantis. Maybe even enough time to fully dissuade him from taking it.

But without knowing what it is, and just seeing Kida transformed, yes he's more wary of it, but in his mind, he's in too deep at that point. He's passed the point of no return, there's no option to abort the mission anymore, not without risking a mutiny from the soldiers with them, so he has no choice but to continue. If he was truly out to kill people, he could easily have just shot Milo and the other deserters or had the soldiers shoot them. He never does, never considers it. After Kida transforms, he never points a gun at anyone or has someone else point a gun at anyone until the battle in the volcano starts. The two soldiers who shove Milo back don't point their guns at him, they cross them to form a barrier and push him. They don't use them as guns.

I guess my point is that killing people was never a part of Rourke's original plan, and is never his actual goal, and that seems to be hugely overlooked, despite how very important that should be to any analysis of him as a character.

Disney Duel 2; Round 3 of 15: Leaders of Sci-Fi Flops

Please remember, these movies were box office flops. Trust me, it sucks to refer to Treasure Planet as anything other than a masterpiece, but it is what it is.

LOL!! It's not perfect but i wanted to showoff

A Surprising Night Out

The crew heads to some club for an evening. One of those older style, classy, elegant lounge type places. They find it strange they haven't seen Rourke, but maybe he turned in early.

Then the evening's star appears onstage, and it takes the entire length of the emcee's introduction for all of them to realize: There's something very familiar about "the lovely and talented Lyella Rouge!"

even as the song starts:

---------

This was supposed to be a shitpost edit, but I got carried away and so did some friends on Discord who suggested things to add. This was actually a fun one to do. I didn't know how much I needed Rourke in drag until I made it exist. I am surprised how pretty this man is.

It gets better here.

Disney Villains Only being able to Speak their First Language to Eachother

Hey fellow Hetalians (No such thing as an ex-Hetalian, y'all know that), remember that post about all the characters only being able to speak their countries official languages for a day?? And the chaos that would've ensued?? This is inspired by that post XD

Imagine the Disney Villains getting hexed by like, Mama Odie or Merryweather or Merlin or someone, so they can all only speak and understand their first language for a month.

Yes. A whole month.

The Toon Patrol are seriously struggling because Greasy keeps talking really fast Spanish at them but the rest have no idea what he's saying. Eventually Smartass decides to lock him in a separate room until this can be figured out and you can just hear banging and vague Spanish coming out the crack.

Ernesto is trying to figure out what some of the English speakers are saying because every 11th word is kinda familiar and they speak slow (Especially the rotund, yodelling fellow) but he keeps getting distracted by this faint Spanish yelling coming from another room.

Hades and Jafar stand off to the side near a wall just watching all the mess. They cant understand each other of course but no one else can understand them either so there's really nothing else to do. Hades will occasionally point something out, like Gaston leaning his sweaty arm on Frollo's shoulder and Frollo struggling to not buckle under the weight, and they'll chuckle. (Yes, laughter. The universal language XD)

Speaking of the French speakers-- they're suffering. Frollo hates his fellow French speakers for all being such sinners, Lady Tremaine hates the others because they're idiots or they have too much attitude towards her (*Cough* mal), Maleficent looks down on them all because they're all magic-less plebs, Edgar hates them because they all have money, and Gaston keeps talking about himself and someone is going to hit him. But they all try to keep it together, keep it classy, though most of them have elected to just not talk except for Gaston.

The oddest pairing is probably Hans and Ursula. She speaks Danish, or a dialect similar to it, and he is either Norwegian or Icelandic. If he's Norwegian, they're trying to figure out what the other is saying. Its mostly Ursula flirting with him and him carefully deciphering her words... and then facepalming. ikke til å tro (Unbelievable). But she keeps making like she has something important to tell him, like how to fix this huge predicament, and he keeps falling for it XD

Hilda and Mother Gothel speak German together and basically check out of this mess- like, do they want to understand what insanity Gaston and Jafar are saying again?? Or Frollo?? Haha, No...

Scroop speaks a harsh alien dialect and Silver's just standing next to him like yeah, yeah... you know i dont understand a word you're saying? *... realises scroop cant understand him either and sighs* Ahhh... *Rubs the bridge of his nose*

Rourke approaches the Horned King, curious why he's just standing there doing nothing and gets a string of growly Welsh and promptly... leaves... Like nope. Not today. That crap sounded like an ancient curse and that is not on todays schedule, thanks.

Clayton claims to have visited half these countries (Truth) and could figure out what many of the other villains are saying if he wanted (Exaggeration) so Cruella's like okay great... go and Captain Hook's like that's marvelous! go ahead then my good fellow!. He goes up to Shan Yu and immediately fails.

Shan Yu is usually pretty quiet around the other villains, so him standing there unreadable though faintly amused by them all is... not out of the ordinary XDD

If you have more to add, please feel free! XD
