#not in theaters tho we boycotting

[ninawolv3rina]

Last time I posted about John Walker here I had to block someone for calling me a fake fan (something I haven't had to do since 2017 in the MCU's peak) but I'm going to risk it again since I'm thinking about him.

John Walker is my favorite Marvel Comics character after the general bulk of Xmen Characters. I love him because he's so deliciously grey and cocky and the comics acknowledge that. Its so hard to find a "love to hate them" character in Marvel comics where it feels like the writers are on the same page as you about them. Like Swordsman or Hank Pym or Wonderman - I always got the feeling that the writers thought I should feel sorry for those guys despite how pathetic they were.

Not John Walker. Everyone always knows what they're doing with John. He is there to serve one purpose and it's being a sad sack of pretty much irredeemable shit. He uses people, he's angry, he doesn't respect the position he's in, he's cocky, he's vengeful and never knows when to stop. And I love him for that.

I appreciated that we actually got a taste of that in Falcon and Winter Soldier. I was really worried they'd sterilize how nasty he can be but the one iconic shot of him did make my blood run cold in the same way it did when I flipped comic pages to see him surrounded by corpses of the Watchdogs back when I read his run as Cap when I was a teen.

John Walker my beloathed. I might just watch Thunderbolts for him.

The problem with Disney right now...

I know I usually state my opinion on movies I see recently and give reviews but sometimes I give my opinion on movies that are going to come out soon. So, I heard about the unnecessary sequels for Moana and Inside Out, which are great movies but they don't need sequels. In all honesty, after seeing what they did with Wish, I think Disney should take a break on making animated movies for a while! Not forever, just for a short time.

Okay, so I think we all can tell that they used A.I on Wish. It's not the animation and stuff, it's just the story! I even think the songs were written by real people, it's purely the story that feels A.I generated. Watch them use A.I on Moana 2, Inside Out 2, and Frozen 3... oh gosh that would break my heart to se them ruin the sequels with A.I. I don't consider myself a Disney fan, in fact, even as a kid I wasn't a Disney-movie kid, but I did have a Frozen phase back in the day. Every kid had a Frozen phase. Inside Out is okay but it was kind of emotional, but the first Moana was really good. The thing is, Frozen is based off the Snow Queen while Moana and Inside Out aren't based off any fairytales and are Disney's own original ideas for once. Plus, I think they're only making these sequels because their original ideas like StrangeWorld and Wish are failing so they're proffiting off live action remakes and making sequels of already existing characters because they're desperate. They're just so greedy and can't stand to see the competitors, who are smaller animation companies, beat them!

I'm mostly boycotting Disney (and have been ever since I saw Zootopia) but I'll watch Disney movies pirated on free websites like Actvid and Moviesjoy. The only thing I like from 2024 Disney is Kiff! LITERALLY KIFF! KIFF! Of all things, I never thought KIFF would be the only thing that's stopping me from abandoning Disney all together. I don't use Disney plus but the website I watch Kiff on doesn't have the recent episodes and I refuse to get Disney plus. Disney should focus on stuff like Kiff and Phineas & Ferb anyway. The only good show they got on Disney channel now is Bluey and Bluey is NOT EVEN DISNEY! Bluey is an Australian show and should be seen as that, instead of having the greediest corporation in the world act like they own an Aussie show that they didn't have anything to do with. Bluey should be on PBS kids or something, not greedy Disney! Who agrees? I'm American, but If I was in Australia I'd be so mad at Disney. Disney literally censored episodes, removed episodes, and stopped the writers from throwing in a Bible reference... when they weren't even making the show! If I was in charge, Disney Channel/Disney Junior would have shows like Jungle Junction, Phineas & Ferb, Bear in the Big Blue House, Good Luck Charlie, Suite life of Zack & Cody on Deck,... ect. Basically I'd bring back everything except JESSIE because it was racist (R.I.P to Cameron Boyce tho, he wasn't a bad guy he was just on a bad show).

Anyway, Disney is on my last nerve rn, and if it wasn't for Kiff I'd hate it all together. I still do hate Disney but the only thing that keeps me from wanting it to go away is Kiff. If you haven't heard of Kiff, it's a recent show by Disney, about an orange squirrel who's really energetic (and no, she's NOTHING like Scaredy Squirrel). As far as movies go, I know for sure that I will never see another Disney movie in theaters and I encourage you too, as well. They'll end up on Actvid or Moviesjoy before they even end up on Disney plus anyway, because Disey is popular and people care enough to record it off some hidden camera in theaters. I'm not saying you have to follow in my footsteps and boycott Disney, I'm just telling you on how I do it. Like, the day they come out in theaters is the same day they end up on free websites. Plus, you don't have to waste your money if the movie is going to be bad, like how Wish ended up being bad.

So yeah, please share your thoughts! If you're a Disney fan, I'm sorry. You have to know that they've been really shady recently (they always have been shady but particularly now).

Story Time

So I was super hyped for this movie wayyyy before it hit theaters mainly for LeFous character. And I would tell anyone who would listen about how great I thought it was that Disney finally had an openly LGBTQ character. This habit and excitement couldn’t even be deterred by the people that run in my social circles that preached about boycotting Disney for this. I should thank them tho cause they are the reason my rant about why this this Disney movie milestone was so great was set up like a 2 page English Comp presentation.

Anyways I went to see this movie opening week with my mom and brother and they were just as excited as I was. The theater was full of familys and kids and grandparents and we got good seats in the middle section, the movie played and was amazing. Emma Watson sang “Bell Reprise” I cried like a baby (The only other movie I cried in like that was Wonder Woman during the Amazon training and fight scenes because they were badass and beautiful). The movie kept playing, Bell was a dope ass feminist, Beast was a broody sweetheart, Gaston the song was litttt.

We finally get to the fight in the castle scene and Mrs. Potts starts Preaching ™ about how LeFou can do better than that vain ass Gaston and he realizes he’s worth more!

And then Madam de Garderobe as the wardrobe puts Tom, Dick and Stanly in these dresses and Tom and Dick are like embarrassed but Stanly starts strutting like WERRRKKK.IT.YESSS.BOO!!!

During this scene I was thinking LeFou needs to jump on this sexy confident man and make him his new bae. Literally these two had like 2 sec of screen time together during “Gaston” barely interacting and I was already shipping them at like OTP level. I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face after that scene because I was just so shook and in awe it was amazing.

Getting to the point of this story, the end of the movie rolls around and everyone’s dancing and then STANLY AND LEFOU END UP DANCING TOGETHER AND MAKING HEART EYES AT EACH OTHER!!! I’m just like

Literally at this point my heart was bursting with happiness for my two queer sons and in the middle of the crowded and super quiet movie theater I jump in my seat and yell, like literally yell, YES while fist pumping. Everyone kinda stared at me but I didn’t give a shit because my OTP was cannon bitches.

So that’s the story of the time I fangirled so hard that I made a really loud scene in a super quiet and really crowded movie theater because my OTP became cannon and no one shushed me and I didn’t get kicked out because everyone else in the theater shipped it too.

The end

LEFOU GETS THE GUY - Ending Dance | Beauty and the Beast (2017)
