#night at the museum amelia earhart

[wonderlands-ass]

Really impopulaire opinion

I HATE Amelia. Like actively hate her

I think she's really annoying in the movie, the way she's depicted in the movie pisses me off.

I might piss some people off here, so I need y'all to understand that I hate her in the movie and how she's depicted she's still a strong character but in the movie she's just too much.

Look I get that hardly anyone in that movie is accurate with hoe they looked irl but the way that they absolutely sexualized Amelia is just gross.

Yesterday I was forcing one off my friends to watch the 2nd movie and we were just so annoyed every time she was on screen.

The way they made her character "badass female who is amazing and everyone loves her cause she's just so cool" is so fucking annoying to watch.

Larry's whole relationship with her was just plain freaky to me and her kissing him twice while ha was just not into it was just kinda.... No. Ya know.

For everyone who doesn't understand why I'm so annoyed at how she looks in the movie, let me show you what she looked like irl, and in the movie.

Just... Look

What the hell

And it's not like they just didn't know.

There are plenty of pictures of her.

Idk this just pisses me off ig.

I got a request night of the museum amelia earhart x male reader who get spared off from becoming dust and becoming a real person

Y/N walks towards the Smithsonian in the early morning light…

The Lockheed lands and Amelia steps…

Amelia: good morning! I came by to drop off this magnificent aircraft back to its rightful place

Y/N: h-hi.

Amelia: you seem like a mighty fine fellow to grab a coffee with.

Y/N: sure.

Amelia locks arms with them…

Amelia: well then off we go!

The two stroll off towards the nearest coffee shop…

Hello again

So

Just did a rewatch of the Night at the Museum films. Now, don't get me wrong, I love those films, really fun and cool, love the queer lil cowboy and Roman, but I have beef with the second film, which is supposed to be the best?, solely because of the portrayal of Amelia Earhart.

And I remembered I have Tumblr for this reason :)

Spoilers, of course.

So she's introduced when they arrive at the British museum, as the first woman to cross the Pacific and a pioneer in many other things.

The only other moment she's treated with respect is when they meet the Tuskegee's and it's only for a moment.

She spends the rest of the film being reduced to the stereotype of a woman head-over-heels for a man. She literally follows him like a puppy dog from the very first moment they meet.

What kind of representation is that? The whole time is spent saying that the expos in the museum are for people to learn. What about the little girl, watching the movie, who will only remember Amelia Earhart, a badass woman, as the love interest?

Sure, you wanna add romance to appeal to a wider audience? Octavius and Jedediah are right there. Not only that, but they're clearly fan favourites, since their screen time goes up noticeably in the second film and they have their own storyline/focus in the third one. For crying out loud, they're both very obvious with it (see, for example: "hold my hand" [Octavius] {and the ensuing small couples quarrel/denial} and the fricken "I ain't quittin you" from Brokeback Mountain [Jed {thank you, Owen Wilson}]) as well as the roman and cowboy periods being arguably the gayest periods in history. It's the perfect cocktail for a cute and sweet romance that was left just on the verge.

Don't like that? (Although, how could you not?) Sacajawea and Teddy. Already established relationship, adorable and it gives Robin Williams more screen time bc who doesn't love Robin Williams?

The point is, the whole theme of the film is children go to the museums to learn about the exhibits in them, and the film is made in a similar fashion. All the young girls are gonna get from this is that she was just another housewife. No matter that she could fly a plane like no-one, what she's good at is being this dudes girlfriend {which she insists upon, even after he shows that he's not interested (although he is? I didn't fully understand that. I think at least at first he really wasn't)} she presses on and insists, practically forcing even.

They had an enormous opportunity to show something great, and they blew it. They had the platform, the means and the traction. They took Amelia Earhart's name, and her legacy, and beat it to pieces.

[kittylover776]

Random Thought:

I once read a fic where Nick is accidentally shrunken by the tablet to make him Jed and Octavius’ size, so what if Ahk allows Teddy, Wea, Atilla, and the rest of the gang to be miniatures for the night so their small companions can show them around their exhibits? I’m sure the two would be more than happy to give them a tour. It would also allow the bigger gang to experience what it’s like being small, and what the pros and cons of it are.

It’d be kinda adorable, tbh.
