Going to See La Muerte

Someone pointed out back then that the scene where Manolo and his family were going to visit La Muerte the background music in that scene is playing Bolom Chon the song from Maya and the three

After rewatching both The Book of Life and Maya and the Three recently, I decided to give one of my Gravepainters fanbabies, Dulcea, a complete design overhaul.

I thought it would be sweeter if one of La Muerte’s daughters resembled her sister, Lady Micte. So I gave Dulcea markings that were more like hers, and I also made her hair dreadlocks as I’m a sucker for that kind of look.

And since Lady Micte had the ability to turn into an owl, I made Dulcea’s wings look similar to those of a barn owl.

Hope you guys like her new look!

Happy 10th anniversary to The Book of Life!!! 💀⚰️🇲🇽🎉😍🐂🎸🎼🎵🎶🪇🥁🎻🎺🎸

On this day October 17th 2014 The book of Life was released in theaters directed by Jorge R. Gutierrez and Guillermo del Toro, and have an incredible voice cast of Diego Luna, Zoe Saldaña, Channing Tatum, Kate del Castillo, Ice Cube, Ron Perlman, Gabriel Iglesias and many more!

Before Coco was released in 2017, This film had a celebration of Mexican culture but also The Hispanic holiday of Dia de los muertos (Day of the Dead), A Day to Remember those that passed away

The animation looks completely incredible as well as the story. All the people that work very hard in both the animation community and the animation studios did all they could to make this wonderful masterpiece that also included Jorge R. Gutierrez's iconic art style into the CGI world, but the wooden figures throughout most of the film to the humans as well

The music is also beautiful, blending its own form and even having a lot of his heritage and Roots to their culture.

Overall, I like this film. No scratch that. I love the film so much. Give it a 10 out of 10!

I highly recommend this film to get into The Day of the Dead Spirit and for those who love animation

​The fact that Manolo and Maria are the reincarnations of Zatz and Maya makes this even WORSE in hindsight.

She almost had to watch her true love die twice!

If u ever feel bad about yourself know that today at work I got so invested in a debate we were having surrounding whether social media was a good or a bad thing, that I loudly exclaimed "there's no library writing group that wants to read about my two favourite fictional guys kissing" and then had to exist while everyone stared at me like I'd grown two heads

I forget how intelligent I am until I write.

Re-reading my journal and being shocked of how wise that old lady is, and how much she has been through but despite that she continues, the old lady actually being me, a twenty year old.

Manolo Sanchez as La Muerte

[no-carpets]

because the only good reason to go to london on vacation is to visit the filming locations of the best movie ever made and be absolutely insufferable about it

Can YOU spot my favorites?
