"Laying low at Lupin's" but since after "TPoA" Remus had to get registered, so he has to stay home and take wolfbane on a full moon. Sirius would offer to "supervise" him. Having his human mind in this unwelcomed body, he would want some peace, to not think about how they could be running in some magical forest, chasing rabbits. So Sirius would read out loud for him to make everything more bearable.
I'm learning to animate so don't be mean, I can see the mistakes. I just don't know how to fix them yet.

All I have to say about the Ninjago movie.
#can't wait for Jack black sensei wu and awkwafina nya and Chris pratt somewhere in there#i mean we can be certain most of em will be white right#and they'll have stupid fucking last names for characters that don't have those#honestly best case scenario is it ends up like Shyamalans TLA#can't wait for “nigh-a” “kay” “miss-ako”#they're gonna make them kids or something i know it#and they're gonna have spinjitzu be the same as their elemental powers or smth#OH WAIT#yeah that's right TLNM beef doesn't stop even here#ninjago#lego ninjago#ninjago movie#live action ninjago movie#live action lego#jump up kick back whip around and spin

Absolutely no negativity to this, it's just... will someone tell them that's not how it works lmao??
#movie-only fans discovered howell jenkins#and they did NOT quite understand that alsosksk#hate to break it to you but “Howell Jenkins'” natural hair colour was never black#also I'd going by this logic I'd choose “Howell Jenkins” over “Howl Pendragon” at any time#although sometimes I don't understand why ppl act like these are two entirely different people and not#Howl's legal name vs his aliases#I MEAN YEAH I UNDERSTAND THAT ON A SYMBOLIC LEVEL YEAH ABSOLUTELY#but these guys (/noneg) are getting it too far sometime#hmc book#howl's moving castle book#hmc#howl's moving castle#howell jenkins#howl pendragon

Fans: so, when are you going to give Sunspot/Roberto DaCosta more of his storyline? Like, are you going to accurately depict his blackness and how that impacts him?
Marvel Entertainment:
#tell me i'm wrong#u can't#marvel#marvel criticism#roberto da costa#sunspot#roberto sweetie im so sorry!#they continuously do you dirty time and time again by erasing or whitewashing your blackness#like if he isn't drawn shades paler than what his original debute was in comics#then he lacks any common black features that let's u know he's black (when not stated verbally)#i can't remember what issue it was but he was getting out of water and his hair was curly----SCREAM#but most of the time his hair is....they don't even try#and don't even get me started on the la movies casting bc they do him dirty anyway#x men 97 was decent but ive been hearing things and idk how they'll handle roberto's story 🤷🏾♀️#like he is afro latino#the “afro” in afro latino means something (to many people)#anti marvel

Even since Michael's heavenly ascend, not just the music industry but, quite frankly, the entertainment industry as a whole has been left with a massive void that I don't believe will be fulfilled in the near future or ever again. That man had a star power equivalent to three Galactuses at their most powerful. You will never witness someone like that ever again, not in this lifetime nor the next one. He was and still is one of a kind.
#michael jackson#txt#michael is one of the very very few celebs i actually care about even though he is no longer here with us physically#how come this man has been dead for nearly a decade and a half and he is still more relevant than the most relevant LIVING celebs rn????#that's how you know that if he was still around people would go just as insane over him as they did decades earlier#michael is the biggest celebrity artist performer entertainer of all time. there is no debate around this topic#the mj fandom on this site is practically dead but i know there are a few of you that will come across this and agree wholeheartedly#i manifest the biopic being a massive commercial and critical success#it will gross over $1 billion at the box office and become one of the most profitable movies of the 2020s as well as a staple in biopics#specially the musical ones. we are gonna make that happen#i mean we already do a far superior job to his actual goddamn estate so we can easily turn this into an overnight hit#not a sleeper hit/cult movie but an INSTANT hit#the closest people we got michael's level of legendary fame are paul mccartney and madonna but even they don't make as much noise#i'm (not) sorry but michael was truly built different. he was on a category of his own#a category so incredibly monstrously and insanely high that i don't believe anyone else will ever be able to reach it#no swifties taylor swift isn't on michael's level either#her level of fame is closer to madonna's at her peak#a massive star but not on michael's level. michael was practically worshipped outside of america even in the most racist anti-black#cultures you can think of. he broke racial barriers like that#and madonna was still bigger than taylor in her heyday lol#so what does that tell you?#i'm sorry but being famous was far more impactful back then than it is now#social media changed the dynamic between the public and celebs forever

why
just whyyy did they make Mycroft stupid in Enola Holmes??
"just because you don't have your brother's gifts" or whatever bitch i love sherlock but mycroft is THE genius in the Holmes family
like if one of the brothers is stupid compared to the other it's sherlock
i'm confused
#and it's making me kinda not like the movie ngl#which is a pity bc i really like the boy enola meets#he is giving me major sirius black vibes tbh#but then they keep talking about how mycroft is stupid and jealous#or they show just how stupid he is. like bitch really doesn't understand any of the things in his mother's room#i don'r understand. what does it add to the story?? if they really needed him to be a misogynist so badly they could have made him be that#and still be smart? like i'm sorry guys but just bc someone is an ass it doesn't mean they are stupid in like a mathematical way#or whatevs you want to call the way sherlock and mycroft are smart#i don't get it and i don't like it#mycroft holmes#sherlock holmes#enola holmes#enola x tewkesbury#enola#bbc sherlock#yes i'm also a fan of that but mycroft is the smart one in the books as well#johnlock#mystrade#enola holmes 2#enola and sherlock#mycroft bbc#mycroft x lestrade#james moriarty#greg lestrade

I know I'm several years late, but... why didn't they make Black Widow a good movie? 🥺
#i haven't watched any marvel movies since endgame came out (i think)#getting back into it a bit right now#and i'm honestly so disappointed with black widow like what was that#i didn't warm to any of the characters#most of the jokes didn't quite land for me#it didn't feel well edited (i don't know anything about editing it's just a feeling)#some of the action was stupid#(...i mean stupidER than usual ok)#and hm#idk#i just wish it was like... better

angry at the oscars barbie nominations but in an annoyinger way (i think nominating ryan reynolds makes sense but the best picture and best supporting actress noms are ridiculous)
#sorry but the more i think about it the more i really dislike the movie#ken was funny! he was silly and campy! i really did not care for the rest of the movie!#i just think the more you examine its take on feminism the more it falls apart!#it's inherently about a product! it's inherently personifying a product and making you feel sympathy for and relate to a product!#they are generating hype and engendering sympathy for something they are trying to sell you!#regurgitating second wave feminism without nuance doesn't make it groundbreaking it makes it like. fine i guess?#verilybitchie has a great video that put a lot of my feelings about it into words#idk it did not resonate with me at all and also made me kind of annoyed with how it contributed to the ongoing trend#of gendering things that aren't gendered and focusing on a segregation of gendered perspectives#tired of i'm just a girl! tired of girl dinner! tired of men are always thinking about the roman empire!#sure there are experiences more common to and relevant to women but i get so uncomfy with those kinds of generalizations#even when they're just jokes because after they get repeated enough they stop sounding like ones#just like. when you try to examine it in terms of any kind of intersectionality it falls apart#and i know it's not that serious but like come on. they literally do not once touch on any kind of intersectionality.#you can't be like 'it's a groundbreaking feminist movie!' because they said 'women struggle with misogyny' in 2023#like i know it's barbie but i don't understand why there's this impulse to say that that's something that's never been said before#just because the president is black doesn't mean you've acknowledged like. racism at all.#just because you have two fat barbies with like four lines doesn't mean you've said anything meaningful about body image#and when you take an openly lesbian actress and give her short hair and make her strange and then have all the other characters#essentially socially exile her and still think she's weird after the resolution!!!#i would say that's like!! implicitly a pretty weird way to write gay people!#i don't want to rain on anyone's parade! it's silly! it's not that serious! i just also think it's not that good!#it's fine! it's fun! but i DO think ken is the best part of the barbie movie and for that i apologize

prowlerbyte the only good 42 miles ship imo
#Like...with an existing canon character at least#Im still rooting for a 42 tiana toomes or 42 hailey cooper but ynk hopefully we get one of dem in earth 42#the other ships with him are just...a big no#But like there's a decent chance prowlerbyte may happen i mean they kindaaaa implied it?#Idk i just need miles 42 with a black girl should they give him a love interest#Kinda hoping they don't tho cause it honestly isn't needed the movie already got a lot to cover#But if they do...margo is right there

just read a review of the lego movie from 2014 and it is genuinely a horrible piece of literature and through perusing the comments underneath the review, I have gained an intense dislike of the reviewer. it's not even that I liked the lego movie and he didn't it's just that a lot of the stuff he says is factually incorrect, really stupid-sounding, or he doesn't provide any real reason, and in the comments, he reacts to even the friendliest and politest constructive criticism as if it's a personal attack on him.
#listen I DON'T CARE THAT YOU DIDN'T LIKE THE MOVIE#I mean I'm slightly saddened because I did like it#but he straight-up says it's fully actual physical stop-motion animation at the beginning (factually incorrect)#then later says you won't appreciate the movie unless you like lego a lot and know all about it#specifically saying 'if you can tell the Lego Wild West town from its pirate ship from its spaceman set' (direct quote)#like um idk bro... are you saying you can't???#also this does insinuate that there is one specific set for each of these#which is also factually incorrect but I'm not really mad about that#and then in the comments he kept trying to defend himself by saying stuff about how the movie has a 90%ish rating on rotten tomatoes#and therefore 10% of people didn't like the movie#which is actually. an insane oversimplification of statistics. that's like saying if there are 10 children with an average of 4.5 apples#per child and each child can have a maximum of 5 apples#then 9 of the children must have 5 apples and the other 1 must have none#the 90% in fact includes a large number of people who rated it at 3.5-4.5 stars which is means a lot of them really actually did like it#and just didn't think it was the best movie ever ever in existence or maybe they just had some small qualm with it#the final straw was that someone left a very nice very kindly written piece of constructive criticism asking if maybe the reviewer would#consider saying what about the humor he didn't like (or what kind of humor it was) next time so that the viewer would know whether they#would like it or not as well and I read this and thought 'surely he will respond courteously to at least this one' and he said.#basically 'it's not that the kind of humor didn't suit my tastes. it just wasn't funny'#WHAT THE FREAK#WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT#ALL THIS GOING ON AND ON ABOUT WRITING A NEGATIVE REVIEW BECAUSE IT'S YOUR ACTUAL OPINION AND NOT BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO BE CONTRARY#BUT I THINK YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT AN OPINION IS??????#it's MY opinion that it was funny#it's YOUR opinion that it wasn't#you don't get to arbitrarily say that the only reason you disliked the humor was because it was 'bad'#even ethics aren't this black and white#there was another thread where a commenter pointed out that the reviewer seemed to assume there was such a thing as a universal definition#of a good movie and he repeatedly refused to explain himself. like in an 'are you stupid. this isn't worth my time' way#but I won't get into that

in the same vein as the previously reblogged post, i saw this post this morning by a white lesbian complaining about how, like, people that stan eeao focus on ke huy quan's character too much and his relationship with his wife, when the main focus of the movie is supposed to be the mother-daughter relationship and a young woman coming to accept her sexuality. and it's like, okay...you know two things can be true at once and can exist simultaneously. like thats the point of the movie; its about everything. and personally speaking, the many praises and meta ive seen on here (by at least mutuals and people i follow) the conversation about these things has never felt unbalanced.
#like i think the overall theme of the movie was supposed to be love. in all aspects of the family#the love between spouses. the love between parent and child#the love for one self#i don't think any of these have been forgotten#also i need white gays to quit with the fucking scoffing at black and brown m/f couples#and looking at them through the same lens as the bland run of the mill cis het white couples you see in mainstream media#like regardless if you're gay and tired of seeing men and women together i don't think that's fair to people of color#who almost never see themselves portrayed in a fully human way#also keep in mind that just because you can't relate to something in a piece of media...doesn't automatically mean it's bad or meaningless#p.p.s. y'all don't show up for gay media with poc either so come off it

I love blue beetle and its message and I wish more people had watched it and I understand that the lack of promotion both because of the strikes and because the studios don't give a shit has affected it negatively and the role that racism/xenophobia play in people's disinterest towards the characters in general BUT PLEASE let's also not forget about superhero fatigue
#i keep seeing people complain about the marvels and blue beetle flopping like: we finally got representation and people aren't showing up#and honestly have they considered that these movies (although valuable stories) are being made in part as a last ditch attempt at relevancy#marvel didn't make the Black Widow movie when it thought it had something to lose which ironically would've been a better statement than#those post-mortem crumbs they tossed at us with it#black adam shang chi blue beetle eternals and whatever else... people forget these studios need audience more than the audience needs them#they're not doing it cause representation suddenly matters (and I don't mean creators and especially not poc I mean the suits)#they're doing it cause they have something to gain and nothing to lose that they're aren't losing already (attention/public interest)#and above all else: money#so sure it's upsetting that one of my favorite superheroes is not getting the love he deserves but look at the market baby#we're fucking tired and these crumbs don't help and the political climate is a mess#studios wave diversity on our faces and even preach some good messages but then they go and put their money where exactly?#hm.#blue beetle#marvel#dceu

Trying to tell mom "hey maybe don't call j ewish people rats even unintentionally" event leaves 10 dead thousands injured
#INCREDIBLE how any time i address mom's casual antis emitism she goes into a tirade like 'oh THEY get to be treated special' like#literally me n the 19 yr old give receipts and she always flies off the handle lol lmao haha#she was referring to the tunnel thing in new york and said 'an orthodox j ewish man climbed out the sewer like a rat'#and me n 19 yr old both 😬😬 and casually lightheartedly say 'hey you probably shouldn't say that abt j ewish ppl' and she took it personal#like we said she said it w/ malice and not the same tone as 'hey don't call a black person a monkey even if you didn't mean it offensively'#and 2 hours later she STILL is on her 'well i think it's an agenda some ppl just try and SAY things are offensive and they're not' mom.#u r LITERALLY black. WHY is this hard for u to understand#she did the same when i said a o t was fascist anti semitic nationalist but she's like 'i read it and i didn't see any of that so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#'if you didn't read it you can't say anything's wrong with it'#same w/ that Witches remake a few years ago and i pointed out the witches were coded as j ewish caricatures in the book#and hopefully it wouldn't happen in the new movie#and she thought it was an agenda to cancel it because the main characters were black now#somehow transferred into talkin abt cops and th3 m ilitary and me saying both should be abolished and now she's like#and how i think it's kinda unnecessary to include blatant mil itary propaganda in a show for 6 yr olds lol#and she's like 'are you saying every cop and military person is bad and evil? should kids w/ parents in those forces never be represented?'#no i literally didn't say every individual is but the organizations need to end at least 90% in my lifetime <33 and no i also don't think#a kid w a soldier dad is the same as a kid with a black dad so no mili tary n cop rep is not the same as poc rep lol she literally said that#and mad that i didn't have THEE solution to replace them like i need to know the exact plan to fix it to point out that they shouldn't exist#anywhooooooo she raises my blood pressure lol <33333#sentext

#people there are so shitty#like ok bitch i'm not dumb#i know my fave character is only in the movie so they don't get racism allegations#I KNOW THAT BC IT'S OBVIOUS#i know he won't appear much bc again he's just there to be The Asian Character (tm)#stop laughing at us for being happy#even if he's not in the movie for being an important character for the plot he's still very important to me#and i'm still happy he's in the movie bc he fucking matters so much to me#the fact he's there makes me happy#it is literally preventing me from remembering the recent deaths that occurred in my life recently#it's been the best distraction i could ask for in this moment of my life#yeah it sucks he won't be very important to the story and heprobably won't get to date the protagonist like in the comics#but we're happy bc he's there!!! that doesn't mean we're dumb!!! we know why he's there and it fucking sucks!!!#but we're not being delusional!!! stfu!!!#i needed to vent#y'all really thinking we're thinking he's gonna be like one of the main characters???#like man even if Milena is one of the main characters now she WILL be brushed aside#bc again they only made her main bc she's black and they get racism allegations bc all the mains are white (white-washed in Cascão's case)#they don't care about her#they don't care about her having an important role in the story#we're not dumb dude we're well aware of the racism of this fandom 👍#if you ask me about the native brazilian characters i will write you an essay#tio morcego tá tagarela#tio morcego tá pistola#just let us be happy he at least is in the fucking movie

Got to see Dear Evan Hansen live tonight for the first time and the chokehold this musical has on me.
#connor#i could go on for days about how this musical is about grief and loss and yet#we never learn who connor really was#about how the vengeful ghost trope gets turned on its head and is just a mouthpiece for Evan's desires#how Connor’s memory gets used by so many people#because a major theme of this musical is the commodification of tragedy#and this missing piece is so problematic the book and the movie offered completely different solutions#which means there are now three conflicting versions of the same story#and you might be like oh but musicals can have different adaptations that's completely normal#but this is like#what if we specifically told you Connor's side of the story in the book and introduced you to a book only character#and that was two years after the broadway premiere#and then four years later we ignored all of that and made a critical change and gave you a clip of connor in rehab#and that critical change means it exists in a continuity outside the other two#i am so fucking feral about this and i don't know if anyone else cares but it has to mean something that the book and the movie separately#addressed the connor identity problem#oh anyway the musical was great and evan was black and connor was south asian and jared was back to being jewish and alana was big and#it was great
