#how you gonna say the movies are better

[magical-oppas]

Y'ALL

I just saw a tiktok where someone was like "uhm the new percy jackson show is just not it, the movies fit the vibes better" and while that is one of the wildest takes I've ever heard someone commented

"What vibes are you missing hun, whiteness and not being able to find percy sexy because he is actually 12 this time?"

I would not show my face in public again if I got eaten up like that in my own comment section

[botlabyrinth]

the percy jackson tv show is actually great when there isn’t a little shit in your ear telling you it’s not “book accurate”

[rotisseries]

rick riordan dickriders on here will be like "why are you complaining about the pjo tv show, go watch the movies and see what a bad adaptation really looks like" ok well listen to the musical watch it on youtube and see what a good adaptation looks like bitch. it can be done. as a fucking stage musical. what did that 15 million per episode do for disney that chris mccarell couldn't

yo lotus, you like art, you like animation stuff! what’s your opinion on Disney’s latest work? I think they dropped the ball with Wish…

they fumbled so badly w wish i don’t even want to fucking talk abt it. seeing nimona (project that was originally gonna be scrapped and went to another studio) and boy and the heron (2d style animation that disney does not do anymore due to “minimal range for intended audience”) get nominated instead of wish made me grin wickedly. fuck disney. i mean it.

someday people will learn to spot the difference between someone who likes to feel "better" than everyone else by mentioning what "highbrow tastes" they have in media, vs someone who just has some uncommon tastes and is trying to introduce you to blorbo from their shows. casablanca and shakespear are still around because some people like them, actually

its unfortunate, then, that some styles arent as lucrative as marvels style. the age of everyone being able to see anyone bitching about things best discussed amongst a select few in their in-group (i cant really post about how much i hated such-and-such media, because people who love it might see it and feel bad) has made it more or less impossible to discuss a hatred of the most popular style without hurting anyones feelings. and i do hate it. and its success has changed how people make movies now. and i am mad. but most of all, i wish i could bitch about it without making the people who genuinely like it sad

theyre still making marvel-likes because people like marvel, and they dont make akira-likes because not enough people like akira. please watch akira. its good. you might like it. if you like akira and other cyberpunk shit please talk to me about blorbo from my "old" non-english movie

now that i have rereread iwtv i realize that rolins is godsent wallahi this show would be doa if we got a one to one straight adaptation and not because of any content issues or the moral constitution of a modern audience but because that shit would have been boring as hell. like change the channel, scroll thru twitter diy lobotomy sesh boring. love the book, truly a formative masterpiece but if i had to sit through it in visual format id kill myself

For the ask game! 2, 12, and 26 I hope it okay I picked multiple :3

lmao more than okay! happy to answer these and more!!! thank you sara!!! 2. what’s your feel-good movie? ... and once again, no one was surprised when I said Pride and Prejudice 2005. Also probably The Holiday. Guilty pleasures and all but also I'm someone who hates rom-coms usually but the holiday is genuinely good and intellectual. oh also some like it hot (and I will stop there because if I go any further I will just start listing off movies I like and they will become more dark and grim and I will not be able to stop because there are so many movies out there that I love that may even be horrific but the elation I feel watching all sorts of shit that stimulates the mind?? that's what feels good to me)... ok Howl's Moving Castle and Spirited Away too there I'm done.

12. how are you? Well.. better than yesterday for sure. I was having a regular catastrophic morb there for a second but I took it easier today and with any luck I'll have an even better day tomorrow and everything will be grand! who knows maybe I'll make some more material progress in the first chapter of One Warm Line.

26. what movie would you want to live in? Ok I know I've already said in previous asks P&P 2005 but I also think living in a ghibli movie of any sort would be kindof neat

soft asks to get to know people

survived Badly (argh) but going to work on fic for as long as I continue to enjoy doing so then switch over -- see if I can find somewhere to watch The 400 Blows and probably cry forever and dehydrate and feel soooo sad and then feel better after. Thank you French New Wave

I've never heard of emts working only at events? What's that like for you if you don't mind my asking?

Yeah, there are ambulance companies that staff certain events, but there's some event specific companies out there lmao. For me specifically, it's almost entirely college events, whether it's happening on a campus or not. It's not great, usually pretty boring, but it's better than being on an ambulance or in a hospital. We do get actual emergencies sometimes, but usually it's just getting drunk people to the tent or giving out water and bandaids lmao. Again, boring as fuck, but I chose this over working on a 911 rig, so that's on me 😔 if I'm being so real tho, other than my coworkers, the best part of the job is the food lmaoooo it's so good and all the food trucks/food booths give discounts or free food to us depending on the location and event. And there's almost always a ton of downtime, so I basically just get paid to sit there and vibe for the most part

[sp00ky-scary]

Wow the disney+ goosebumps series is kinda shit

[selamat-linting]

skipping wwe ppv's set in the us, france, and australia because of their human rights abuses and ongoing support on neo-colonialism all over the world

[toxictac]

You know it really do be sad how despite all this time, hollywood still thinks when they do a movie of a game what we want is hyper relistic grafics with characters with marvel type dialogue

Ok this is not to be a hater of the minecraft movie, like i didnt care for it in the first place so i have no place to complain... but-

Like as much as i still think minecraft story mode is a jumble mess of ideas, if the movie used the same principals (with some changes, be that making the light more cinematic and what not), im pretty sure a lot of people would be more on board with it

Like if you want me to get invested "in another world" story why not make the world be different than the actual world aesthetically, like i know for a fact you doing most of this by cgi with as minimal props as possible, at least then have the guts to go all out with it

[six-demon-bag]

what if i exploded into a thousand million pieces and they all scuttled away under the floorboards

[nero-neptune]

close encounters of the third kind is an objectively good movie, but it feels sorta tragic. and i doubt thet was the intention lol. love the cinematography, love the music score, love the visual effects. that's all fun and good. but where everyone else seems to see a movie full of "wonder", it just makes me feel sad. the movie ends the way it does and it leaves me feeling bummed the fuck out.
