“Life is an ocean of chaos and the realization that you are the one supposed to throw the buoy while struggling to stay afloat is devastating.”

Detachment (2011), dir. Tony Kaye.

To me Agent Stone represents that small shed of humanity Robotnik has left, the one he denies but can't seem to let go of. That irrational attachment and desire for companionship.

And I think Sonic 3 will put that humanity to the test.

I wanted to talk about Toothless and how his design and personality changed for the worst throughout the 3 animated movies (I won't be tackling any of the shows because I haven't watched them)

In the first movie he's at his best. His design is actually amazing, from the overall model structure to the patterns on his skin (which are visible in every shot, especially the ones taking place during the day, without ruining the 'illusion' of his black skin. It actually feels like it's resembling a panther aka black leopard in which the fur patterns are still visible). His face has a more aerodynamic shape, more sharp, a big curve.

His snarky but intelligent personality was really fitting for him. And we got to see more of it as the movie was progressing and he was getting more comfortable with humans.

In the second movie the patterns on his skin are still mostly there, way less prominent but still visible. His face got squashed down (a problem which only because stronger in the 3rd movie) but as a whole he still looks presentable, kinda. His posture changed too (but I'm too lazy to find evidence, you'll have to take my word for it).

I remember not having a problem with his personality in the second movie which is why I was surprised to see that this was only half true. He acts more domesticated, that's to be expected, but only around humans? When he interacts with other dragons it's like he's a completely different character, closer to what he became in httyd 3 than 1. He's still quite intelligent and more used to human equipment and people in general. In the first part of the film (especially this scene with Hiccup) he acts like how I'd imagine he should be in the 3rd movie, here it should have been a 'middle' ground, not 100% domesticated but not movie 1 feral either.

In the third movie he suffered the worst. Gone are the patterns on his skin, he's solid black now. His face got weirder too.

His personality got reduced to this stupid, slobbering 'dog'. His pupils are always dilated and his tongue almost constantly out. He acts unintelligent and he doesn't have that snarky personality he had in the first and even the second movie. He's basically a different character altogether. (That scene where he tries to 'woo' the light fury is embarrassing at best and shows exactly what's wrong with his character now).

They did it to make him more 'likable' to younger audiences + to make a good visual contrast to the light fury (who has an undercooked personality AND awful design as well), which is weird because they gave the light fury patterns on her wings?

The light fury looks like a beluga whale in the worst way possible. She has almost nothing going on visually to the point it doesn't even make sense. Her skin looks fragile, she's so weirdly smooth for no reason. It would legit be better if they took a night fury model and painted it white.

They gave her a 'cat' personality and took it away from Toothless (why couldn't both be 'cats'?). Also she's the 'girl' character, her only purpose is to be the romantic interest. She adds nothing to the film.

No comment in the live action design. Just ugly. Atrocious even.

Also something else that's been bothering me from the live action remake is this scene.

They've basically recreated every scene exactly as it was in the original so far (which is a bad thing) but the slight hesitation Toothless showed before touching Hiccups hand was the one thing they chose not to include? (I know the scene wasn't meant to have that in the beginning and it was an error in animation which they decided to keep because it gave the scene more personality so, why not include it in the live action?)

the "they kept saying elisabeth/sue are the same person but theyre clearly not theyre so different" is going to fucking drive me insane if i see it one more time yall canNOT be this dense

yeah theyre the same person, yeah theyre different OBVIOSLY. going back and forth from being in two different bodies, in two different lives, different realities in how people treat you, how you treat yourself. fucking how many times have you looked back at smth you did a week ago and went 'wtf was i thinking' and she was IN A DIFFERENT BODY, SHE COULD INTERACT WITH AND SEE THE OTHER BODY OF COURSE SHE GOT DETACHED FROM HER SENSE OF SELF. OF COURSE SHE STARTED TO RESENT THE OTHER VERSION.

rereading wicked like how did my ten year old mind attach to this and refuse to let go.

I keep seeing all this stuff in Metroid fandom (and arguably from the creative team themselves) about Samus having a motherly bond with (voice) The Baby but, like, she handed that thing over to be dissected by military scientists SO fast. I could see her being surprised that it had formed such an attachment with her by the end of Super Metroid cuz yeah that was unexpected and weird. But chances are high she saved that last bby metroid with the intent of it being used for study and destroyed in the process.

It is funny imagining her going on parent/child bonding trips with the galaxy's second most dangerous life form though.

Anora was one of my least favorite movies in the awards season lineup it just felt so hollow and 2 dimensional

i haven't watched them all but i finally watched anora this week-end and despite some good moments, i really didn't have the time of my life. i know it's not fair but i couldn't help comparing anora to other sean baker's movies like the florida project or tangerine and it felt so much less than these movies.....

I have recently stumbled upon this article too: A History of Sex Workers and Oscar Wins and the whole thing gives me the ick like. of course hollywood would do this but somehow i never connected the dots before
