I feel like most of the hate for the movie boils down to one of two things (and sometimes both!)
1. They wanted SA2 the movie instead of sonic movie 3
2. For some reason thinking the trailer was going to or has spoiled the entire movie??? And there will be absolutely no twists or surprises??
Like if you're in camp 1 that's fair and valid to be disappointed. I'm sorry the movie wasn't what you wanted it to be. But...did you really EXPECT it to be? The first 2 movies didn't follow the games and established a completely different world and timeline. Why would the 3rd movie be any different? Fundamental parts of SA2 rest on things that could never happen in the movie based on the canon established. The master Emerald would have a tough time being stolen and then broken. The eclipse canon can't run on chaos emeralds, they've been inside the Master Emerald and hidden for certainly longer than 50+ years when the ark would have been built. The movie was going to be an adaptation of SA2 (and apparently morphed with parts of Shadow's game too) not a recreation. And that's always what it was going to be.
I'm sorry you wanted an orange and got an apple. I really am. But why are you mad at the apple for not tasting like an orange. Like it was always gonna taste like an apple. It's an apple.
And camp 2 is like...either a fundamental or maliciously intentional misunderstanding of how trailers work. It's a TRAILER. It's 3 minutes out of a 90-ish minute movie, stitched together to make you intrigued without spoiling the plot.
There's gonna be surprises in the movie! Sonic is working for GUN in the trailer, bummer, but we have 87 other minutes for him to go "Hey wait that's bad" and stop working with them. Amy and Rouge aren't in the trailer, that sucks. But there's 87 other minutes for them to show up! To be a surprise! Super Sonic wasn't in the trailer for movie 2! Gerald's alive? No the horror! Or is he? We don't know! Could be a trick or a twist!
Cuz that's what movies HAVE.
Twists! Surprises! Cool shit to make people go "YOOOOO!"
Trailers? Good ones DON'T spoil the entire plot of the movie. And assuming you know the entire movie based off 3 minutes is - again - either a fundamental or malicious misunderstanding.
Anyways just let people be excited. If you're not, that's fair and fine. You have every right not to be. But like. Idk. Don't shit on people for it??? Maybe??? Is that too much to ask???
#sonic#sonic the hedgehog#sonic movie 3#squid speaks#vent#sorta#idk man im just#hrgfh#tired of negativity for stupid reasons#you dont have to like the movie!#but some of the crticisms are just. come on man.#at least see the movie first#and ofc there is no defense for paramount and what they support#i hope it goes without saying that this post is not about that#that part is indefensible#this post is about everything BUT that

Drowned God, if you don’t like Sansa for believing in the ideals presented in songs and fairytales and for holding them dear to her heart, you need to do some introspection as a person enjoying what is essentially a modern fairytale

Squid facts: Humboldt squid (also called the red devil) are very aggressive and known to attack deep sea divers. They can live in large groups of 20+ squids and change colors/flash patterns to communicate. They have teeth on their suckers.
actually!!! humboldt squids very rarely attack divers, but when they do, its because the divers approach a feeding shoal and, since they're not rapidly changing colors to communicate their intentions, a squid or two will become aggressive. the divers essentially showed up to a dinner party wearing the wrong color and have to be punished for their absolutely rancid vibe. a fair punishment tbh. they're very curious and very friendly with things that do abide by the dress code, like submarine lights :D
they're also called flying squid because they've been known to break the water's surface to avoid predators. they're just little guys who want to light up and jump and also occasionally resort to cannibalism but we can ignore that <3
#also i hate to defend the squid too much here#but they are a prey species for mega sea life like sperm whales#and thus i fear that the girls do get a little defense from time to time#its not their fault#let them bite you they deserve it#personal#casuallywatchingfromtheshadows

I just wanted to know how long the Mirena iud lasted for, but I found a guide on how to remove your own IUD
Ever think about how IUD has the same number of letters as UFO? And they both have the letter U in them? Really makes you think.
#uterine flying object……..#me when I shoot out a blood clot like a squid like defense mechanism#normally I make posts like this and then I delete them but I think I’ll post this one

Had two Squid Memes ideas related to the Splatoon DLCs
First is that...well, Tartar's entire identity is built on the fact that humans are long extinct in Splatoon canon. But that's obviously not the case in SMG4 canon. And as a consequence, Tartar is one of the very few non-Mario characters to remember a world without memes. And the combination of dealing with two conflicting sets of memories, discovering that the version of humans he'd built up in his mind was completely wrong and they're really no different from inkfish in the ways he'd decided mattered (and decided were crimes worthy of mass execution), and suddenly being flooded with memes all at the same time absolutely broke him and he went from "bring back the superior species" to "fuck all y'all I'm blowing up this whole fucking planet have fun in hell!"
The other thing is that I'm having Western Spaghetti and the initial Side Order runs before they clear the first Palette and escape happen at the same time. If only so Andi, Crabcake, Deep Cut and the Squid Sisters can go "are we seriously the only ones who weren't trapped in simulations this month?"
#i wish squid memes were real au#octo expansion#side order#western spaghetti#commander tartar#in their defense they WERE trying to find everyone wren snatched up#they just managed to save themselves first

that squid game reality show genuinely & sincerely makes me so irrationally angry & the stupid ass takes surrounding it make it so much worse.
i actually sincerely cant handle it. it makes me so irate bruh
#mine#it's so fucking mindboggling it rly fucking is.#squid game has incredible writing that can be deep & intricate at times#but when it comes to the message & themes it was literally as blatant & direct as possible.#& it's great that it was tbh. esp w how popular it got.#but holy shit it also means when ppl just willfully disregard its message it is actually physically painful#bitches rly saying in defense of the reality show 'oh well the og show's games were only bad bc ppl died'#like... my dude. you CANNOT be serious. i am on my knees BEGGING for a sike you cannot be fr#did yall all just cover your eyes during the hell episode or what#did gi-hun's speeches to il-nam mean nothing to u.#literally what the entire fuck are u saying like the show didnt bash u over the head w a frying pan abt its theme#it's not even lacking media literacy at that point like it's literally not even up to interpretation#IT LITERALLY BLATANTLY SAYS THE POINT MULTIPLE TIMES I CANT#AAAAAAAAAAAA#i wanna rewatch the show ON netflix outta spite now. imma do that bye

On whether he agrees with Ron Francis that he was playing his best hockey in the series against Hershey (which he really was, he was incandescent):
"I would agree... I was just playing hockey. I was having fun. I was looking forward to coming to the rink every day and enjoying playing in the playoffs and being in that atmosphere. Going that far, making a run like we did, that's fun hockey. You enjoy playing in those games and playing in those loud buildings and having those experiences. I was really happy with the way I was playing. I'm trying to build off that, how I was playing at the end of the season, build that into this development camp, and then through training camp as well."
On how different it feels being at this development camp vs. last year:
"Definitely feel older, that's for sure. 😄 Definitely feel a little more comfortable coming to this environment-- I've obviously been here, practiced in this arena, I've been around the coaches and been around all the staff... as much as I don't want to say it, I'm kind of one of the older guys now, here, I'd say 😆 I want to be a little bit of mentor, as much as I can, towards all these younger guys. But yeah, I definitely feel more comfortable, more at ease here. It's nice to be back. It's really fun being here. Good skate today, and great crowd as well, so it's always fun to be back."
"The Kraken offered you a chance to have a rest after your last playoff run in Coachella. [Shane played 24 of the record-breaking 26 games the Firebirds played in the playoffs; the team played every one of the five series to the maximum length except one. Ryker Evans and Tye Kartye were excused from dev camp due to playing about 100 games each this year!] What made you want to come out here and be a part of this?"
"Yeah! I mean, I wanted to be a part of this. First of all, just to be around the new draftees-- it's always cool seeing some other guys get drafted. I'm only a year older, but I feel like I have a lot of experience at the pro level. Being able to be a mentor and help teach and help those guys learn as much as I can-- be a role model, be a leader here is what I really want to do. Also, just love being here 😃, love skating 🥰. They kind of gave me the option to come, but no question, I definitely wanted to be here, definitely wanted to skate at dev camp."
"How long did it take the full [and EPIC] playoff beard to come in?"
"🤣 I mean, it just kept going and going and growing! 😄 By the time it was game 7 there, it was the longest it's ever been in my life! 😄 I've never really been able to grow it out that much, and 😂 the guys on the team were saying it was one of the best on the team 🥰 so I was definitely pretty proud of that 😁."
"You look like you've put on some muscle mass in the last year-- have you? Or am I imagining it?" [It sure looked like it by the end at CV!]
"Um... maybe a little bit, yeah! I think just playing at the pro level for the amount of playoffs that I did, just naturally you have to adapt and you naturally grow stronger playing against those bigger, stronger guys. I think... 😁 I don't know if I have or not, but if you think I have 😃 that's great news! Yeah! 😆"
(Not a complete transcript, just the smiliest happiest baby squid parts! SO SMILEY.)
#seattle kraken#shane wright#baby squid SO HAPPY#he looks so happy and confident!#and he has this burning need to be a leader 🥹#everyone thinks matty is going to be team captain in a few years#but I wouldn't sleep on shane here#this is a baby squid who is SO MOTIVATED#and his defensive game was PHENOMENAL by the end of the Calder Cup playoffs#he was soooooo fucking great

Do you think mobians in the sonic universe have like. Meme formats of Sonic and Co. Like. There's some random picture of Knuckles yelling at sonic while Sonic has a shit eating grin thats made multiple rounds around the internet with various different captions. There's a picture of Tails pointing to a complex set of graphs while looking mildly concerned that's called the "according to my calculations," meme.
Because if there is Sonic collects them and sends the stupid ones to whoever is in the image. It's really funny until Tails does it back with a meme that says, "According to my calculations, Sonic, You get no bitches" (at which point it becomes hilarious)
#Also sometimes sonic streams himself reacting to them. If he's feeling silly enough he drags his other friends with him to stream too#Sth#sonic the hedgehog#tails the fox#squid rambles#Also yes I stole that one joke from that one audio for the Tails bit at the end#I'm my defense it's a really funny joke

hmm, how big is godslayer macaque? height wise!
I'm really awful with giving exact values, but if we assume MK is like. Average height (5'9" - ish) then that'd put Red at easily over 7 feet tall.
#answers#Anonymous#lmk godslayer au#squid speaks#he's LORGE#gotta be to hold all that power#ya know how Lion evaporated with ONLY the Jade Emperor's power?#red has the power of the ENTIRE pantheon#jade emperor included#he naturally got bigger and sturdier to just handle the sheer amount of power he held#he put like 90% of his stat points into defense#and the other 10% into attack#but he has so stupid many stat points that even 10% is enough to kill a god lmao#so there's that for you

controversial move perhaps but if my team is winning turf war and the other team gets a disconnect in the final minute I'm spending that final minute in squid form on an uninked rock somewhere there's no point in steamrolling further
#i feel bad that its 4v3 in the last minute so i make it 3v3 until inevitably one of the enemy squids joins me in peace on my rock#hold my tentacle we are brothers now. sorry for splatting you 8 times btw in my defense you have very short range and im a hydra

Okay, so this is random, but if any of you ever wanted to see 27-year-old Rodger Bumpass (Squidward) wearing boxing gear then boy do I have good news for you.
#Going Jellyfishing#This is from his first ever TV appearance back in 1979 BTW. The film is National Lampoon’s “Disco Beaver from Outer Space”.#The super hilarious thing about this is that Rodger only shows up like this for literally 4 seconds...#... and just tells the audience ‘So if you've got to take a bathroom break now's the time to do it.’#Cut to an intermission. This small random act is never brought up again. So I guess one could say that this is his one...#... “Big Lipped Alligator Moment” in all his years of acting. Crazy.#I kinda want to see Squidward drawn in this getup now LOL. The mental image of Squidward trying to learn boxing just cracks me up.#Granted he might have SOME chance of getting good at it - he did manage to learn basic karate back in “Squid Defense”...#... so who’s to say he can’t learn boxing either?

OH, TALKING ON GEAR, I made a new outfit today that I had been planning on making for ages but had to find the right headpiece and FINALLY!! I didn't wanna get rid of my Tenacity even tho the outfit goes really well together I am not willing to turn Tenacity into Ink Resistance Up I had a long hard think on it waiting to find the perfect outfit and FINALLY I always end up looking in the Bomb Defense Up category bcuz there are WAY too many Bomb Defense Up clothes honestly for how much better the other abilities are such as Ink Saver (Main) and Ink Recovery Up and Ink Saver (Sub), they barely have like any clothes or outfits that go well together. Maybe I just need to look more into it honestly I've been messing around with Run Speed Up and Swim Speed Up mostly and haven't made any real "main gear" outfits for myself, well I did at the start of the game but that gear is pretty outdated now and I'd wanna improve the abilities on it if I wanted to keep the outfit
ANYWAY I finally made my 3 mains of Ink Resistance Up with all Run Speed Up subslots, those were some interesting Rainmaker games once I realised how effective that Ink Resistance Up was XP
#splatoon#yeah I am a total nerd#like I dunno all the ropes of the game obviously I'm not the best at technicalities BUT I do pay a little bit of attention#like what kinda gear works well and I love making gimmick gear to really show off what an ability does#so I can see how well all of them work and also checking how much ONE subslot does to chance the whole of the gear#cuz even one subslot can make a lot of difference between getting killed by a bomb when it's nowhere near you and winning the game#also Ink Resistance Up also helps with that the residue afterwards as well as helping prevent urself getting stuck as badly#oo and Intensify Action just for some cheeky squid rolls outta danger XP#it's fun~~ a lot easier to just do like pure sets tho which Imma work on making a Bomb Defense Up gear set#with all subslots of Ink Resistance Up for the extra protection#I'm an Ink Resistance Up enjoyer lmao#plus I already have my full Run Speed Up and Swim Speed Up set (as well as the Ninja Squid variant) and a few that do both#so just gonna work on full sets for all the main abilities AND I'm looking foward to those new clothes coming in Sizzle Season#hopefully they have some good outfits and abilities to go with it ^^
