favorite part of kiri the way they went like "she is mystical and magical and deeply spiritual and connected to pandora in a way no one imagined possible. also she is 14 so she sticks her tongue out and rolls her eyes and whines and doesn't want to be in pictures and goes 'mYeH NyEh mAh mNyEh' at adults when they fuss at her"

#;lkjdsf;glkjsd;flgkj #i want. to put her in my pocket #every time jake calls kiri ''baby girl'' i gain 10 years of life 〈⋄〉 ooc.#listen i fully get people who like. they have that disconnect where they Know it's sigourney and that just #doesn't work for them or whatever right #but she turned in a 11/10 performance as a 14 year old like #it's just done with so much awareness from the adult perspective but also so much care and empathy im so in love with it #something so.....unique in all the correct ways about using this technology we have to do this #like i know some people think it's the same as de-aging and using deceased actors likeness right but #to me for this role specifically it's so much more like....stage acting?#and the fact that it's sigourney in both roles Adds to the character to me #she is mother. she is daughter. she is old she is young she is dead she is so alive she is. both!#like digitally de-aging for the sake of ''''yeah this happened when they were young''' is just like. idk neither here nor there for me #it almost never looks good but that's about the end of my thoughts on it #i think the way they've been like. bringing the likenesses of deceased actors into movies with this is really weird and not my favorite #for a variety of reasons #but this? this is perfect this is exactly what this should be used for. she's right there and it's not /really/ her but younger #it's not trying to reimagine a young sigourney weaver it is giving a different life to this performance #i mean considering it's effectively an animated movie anyway you know????? god does this #is this at all comprehensible #im having a moment don't look
