Just chiming in as someone who works in theater. You actually wouldn't have to do that much crazy cross casting to do Warriors on stage. There are only 19 non-Warrior speaking roles. It's actually not that unreasonable to cast a 19 person ensemble and give them each a speaking role, and then just have them play background gang members in every other scene. The fewest i could see doing it with is 10 and double casting them, but that's pushing it bc there are 8 Warriors and it stops being believable that they're actually outnumbered. The single biggest issue I can actually see with doing this show is quick changes and costuming. But a total cast of 30 for a musical is really not that many.
#im not counting the boroughs bc theyre not really characters#but even if you wanted to include them#that brings the full cast to 35. really not that many. i could see a director wanting more ensemble on top of that easily#warriors musical#really mad this musical didnt come out last year#bc my uni was desperately searching for a musical with a ton of speaking roles and a decent story and complex roles#for women and poc#and here it is#warriors has nine (9!) lead female roles and theyre not even all sopranos!!!!

A good reminder that not everyone in red states has shit beliefs. Please remember that before you make your jokes about red states being backwards. There’s literally vulnerable groups who are terrified rn
#there’s women poc and lgbtq people who are going to suffer#these states worked hard#but voter suppression is still a masssive issue#gerrrymandering is still a thing

Every Olympic cycle I’m reminded how little “the West” knows about “Non-Western” countries because to think Algeria, of all countries, would send a trans athlete to represent them in the Olympics is so dumb.
#as soon as I saw that she’s representing Algeria I knew she wasn’t trans#it’s literally illegal in Algeria#she would be in jail#olympics#paris olympics#Olympics 2024#imane khelif#this is just another example of white women weaponizing their tears against poc

Now that Ghibli's new movie is coming out soon, I've been thinking about anime films and wanna talk about my favorite animated movie ever, Tokyo Godfathers.
TG is a 2003 tragicomedy by Satoshi Kon, following three unhoused people––an alcoholic, a runaway girl, an a trans woman––who find a baby in a dumpster and set off across Tokyo to reunite her with her parents.
If you like the sound of that, go watch it because the rest of this post is spoilers and I have FEELINGS about this movie.
URGHH, the fact that only two moments of true kindness, generosity, and care given to the three protagonists without any expectation of reciprocity are given by a Latin-American immigrant couple and a drag club full of queens and trans women. The fact that, despite her loud and dramatic personality, Hana is the glue that holds the team together and the heart of the whole movie. The fact that this movie pulls no punches at showing the violence and inhumanity committed by "civilized Japanese society" against the unhoused. The fact that Miyuki craves to be loved by her parents and ends up seeing Hana as her true mother. The fact that Miyuki starts off accidentally using transphobic language against Hana, but slowly begins calling her "Miss Hana" out of respect. The fact that, according to Kon, Hana's role in the story is as a mythological trickster god and "disturb the morality and order of society, but also play a role in revitalizing culture." The fact that Hana so desperately wants to be part of a true family, yet is willing to sacrifice her found family so they can be with their own, and is rewarded for her good deeds in the end by becoming a godmother. The fact that, throughout the movie, wind and light have been used to signify the presence of god's hand/influence (this movie's about nondenominational faith––faith in yourself, faith in others, faith in a higher power. Lots of religious are referenced, such as Buddhism/Hinduism, Christianity, and Shintoism), and in the climax of the film, as Hana jumps off a building to save a baby that isn't hers, a gust of wind and a shower of light save her from death. The fact that god saves a trans woman's life because she proved herself a mother, and that shit makes me CRY.
#ramblings#long post#not art#personal#it's the ultimate found family movie#not without its problems. i really dont like its depiction of mental health#for a movie that does an otherwise great job spotlighting the unhoused crisis in japan and its society's oppressive distain towards women#and queer people. it really drops the ball on depicting one of the biggest contributors to the crisis#but otherwise this movie is so fucking full of love and kindness and second chances and how fucking good queer folks and poc are#it blows my mind that this film came out in 2003 and the main protagonist is a trans woman who's just the fucking best#the recent gkids dub is REALLY good by the way! they got shakina nayfack; a trans va; to voice Hana!#the dub made great strides to undo a lot of the original misgendering and mistranslations#also its a christmas movie#also the ost was done by the band that did earthbound's ost
