#shame on you Disney

[spikewriter]

So, basically, Disney is demanding writer-producers do the writing work which is necessary during post-production, even though their union is explicitly forbidding them to do this during the strike.

In the email shown in the article, Disney admits that writer-producers who do this might be fined by the WGA. There is no sign that Disney is sympathetic to this or willing to pick up the cost of those fines. They also hint that while they don’t want to replace someone to stands by the strike and refuses to do such duties, it is a possibility.

I have to love the line about being coerced by the WGA. The letter is an exercise is coercion, carrying with it the message, “Do what we say or you may lose your show.”

This is only the first item like this. Expect more to becoming

They literally made this instead of the young Jack Sparrow series. They must really hate those books.

Very sad the Wish credits didn't include my favorite underrated child, the black cauldron

I knew this sequel was gonna turn out bad the moment the trailer was first announced! Should’ve kept it as a Disney+ series.

In the theater after Moana 2! First thoughts:

Pretty effects

Bad music

no build-up and very minimal follow-through

no consequences to any actions at all

no emotional depth

basically this is a movie full of stuff. stuff that could be good if there was any time taken to build it, make it relatable, and follow through. And the villainess is not a villainess, so get that expectation out of your head immediately.

[juniemunie]

remade this again because im angry and mindless editing lessened it

So. That new announcement. And the fact its an adaptation of the animated trilogy, not a continuation or any innovation.

Yeah. Im just gonna watch the actual httyd1 and pretend that never happened.

Dont fall for the nostalgia bait bros, let that scheme shrivel up and die.

Incoming rant below about this

-...-...-...-

People already know the reasons why its going to be shit so I wont say it again

Considering how Dean has completely misinterpreted the major themes of the first movie, I cant trust him at all with this one nor would I want to

Powell made a perfect masterpiece with the og, idk what else he would do or add on with this one but i can only hope ig, but even then-

Seriously, what else is there to add? The story is tight. Maybe a little more of Toothless' perspective, giving him more scenes of agency and character, but does Dean even still see him as more than a baby pet?? Does he even give a rat's ass about aLL THAT???? HAHHAHAHHAHA

Just. We all know its not gonna work. I have an inkling that all "show dont tell" sequences are just going to get marred or removed of all nuance. I do not want to see Downed Dragon, Forbidden Friendship, New Tail, Test Drive, or Romantic Flight or practically any of the scenes that made me love this movie get a poor imitation.

You really think live action can mimic the body language, gestures, tHE WAY THE DRAGONS FLY in the first movie or miraciously somehow make it even better? You really think the music of the first could even be topped? YOU THINK THE CINEMATOGRAPHY, THE SHOTS AND LIGHTING WOULD BE COPIED??

Either way, at the end of the day, they already know they cant beat the original movie. All they need to do is horrendously mimic some parts to keep your interest, whether its a beloved scene or music. You're not watching the new one because you love the new, you're gonna watch it because you loved the original.

I really hope it either gets dropped, sent to development hell, or ends so bad that they cant make more. Please please please i hope it gets the ATLA movie treatment

Just when I thought Puss in Boots and Bad Guys were gonna start a Dreamworks Renaissance, this shit happens.

Stop ruining the movies i adore and love, please and thank you

I love how you got people saying, "You just hate fun!", when people make fun off and question the need for Harry Potter fans to hear a fake ass announcement for the Hogwarts train at Kings Cross station in london, just because Harry Potter fans got upset they didn't do it this year, like... No, I just hate cringe Harry Potter fans that were told prior the station wouldn't be doing the announcement, but still showed up anyway and acted surprise pikachu when it happen, let alone don't get MAYBE its because of them over-crowding the station each year for ONE announcement that lasts maybe five seconds or so, making the already usually busy station more busy as fuck when they not even there to get a fucking train in the first place.

Someone: Have you no shame?

Me: My shame went out the window the moment I started writing Disney and Looney Tunes Fanfic

i very heavily recommend

there for you (a duet)

over til it's over (a group song but he has a small solo, a duet part, and he leads the male group parts)

it's my time (a group song but he has a duet part, and you can hear him on the first chanty part)

from the lodge to any dbd fans (who haven't seen it already) who want to hear jayden's singing/rapping voice

time stamps under the cut for the last two if you need them

(these are from the soundtrack version btw but the scenes line up i'm pretty sure)

over til it's over: 0:19 - 0:23 (solo part), 0:40 - 0: 53 (group part 1), 1:05 - 1:09 (group part 2), 1:14 - 1:17 (duet part), 1:28 - 1:40 (group part 3), 1:52 - 1:55 (group part 4), 2:10 - 2:21 (group part 5), 2:33 - 2:36 (group part 6), 2:48 - 2:53 (group part 7)

it's my time: 0:01 - 0:14 (chant part), 1:39 - 1:55 (duet part)

Real power comes from people working together. You don't care about anyone but yourself. And that's why you'll lose.

Head-cannon: What if Cinderella’s father willed his entire estate to “the care of Cinderella”?

Her step-mother only had access while she was responsible for Cinderella. Depending on the laws of the land this could extend either till Cinderella came of age or until she was wed; at which point her husband would be within his rights to banish the step-mother and her daughters from his new holdings. The step-mother is desperate to secure advantageous marriages for her own daughters before that happens. She’s bitter and spiteful of the girl who inherited everything at her perceived expense. She’s unable to simply trust in the child’s good-will specifically because she trusted the girl’s father and received no such consideration. Her resentment comes out in pettiness, if the girl will own everything she can maintain everything. Why should stepmother toil over the upkeep of an estate that will never be her own? This has the added benefit of keeping Cinderella busy out of the public eye and away from potential suitors.

In conclusion: I think she has the potential to be a classic tragic protagonist. Like Macbeth and Oedipus her downfall is the direct product of her own quest for financial security.

Favourite classical music piece. Go.

starting to wonder if we're going to make fun of disney adults so hard that we go right back to cringe culture

I saw a video of a girl getting excited at the eras tour and I looked at the comments and they were all varations of "so a singer sang a song at a concert and that's revolutionary?" or "it's giving disney adult". because how dare someone be happy and excited at a concert. that they paid money to go to. and is for a singer they are a fan of.

you either kill cringe culture for everything or nothing, it's not just for the things you personally enjoy.

[eldritch-araneae]

Lmao, I just found out that "All Dogs go to Heaven" was harshly criticized for "confusing and disjointed plot".... like how???

A little kid like me could understand what this movie is about and follow the story easily and grown ass adults couldn't????

Like how?!
