#the film was ok

[daincrediblegg]

OK THIS IS NOT A FUCKING DRILL EVERYONE FUCKING REPEAT AFTER ME. THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL DO WHEN YOU WATCH MUPPET CHRISTMAS CAROL THIS YEAR:

You will navigate to the page on disney plus (and it has to be here. Unless someone has actually uploaded the REAL movie anywhere else you cannot get it elsewhere)

BUT YOU WILL NOT HIT PLAY. You won’t do it. Because it’s NOT THE REAL VERSION OF THE FILM AND DISNEY IS FUCKING LYING TO YOU AS IT ALWAYS DOES

You will scroll down HERE. To EXTRAS instead. You MUST GO HERE. This is non -negotiable

THEN YOU WILL SCROLL DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF THE EXTRAS AND YOU WILL THEN HIT PLAY ON THIS BAD BOY: THE FULL LENGTH VERSION

And you will watch it. And you will thank me for having been so blind and led astray by that stupid fucking mouse. You’re welcome.

btw none of the people in toji's film class knew about the fact that he has a kitten at home until one day mr satoru gojo the physics prof invaded his lecture and started talking about the little beast. and toji was about to tell him off very Politely but then realized that all of you were very like ?? about it, like none of you believed that he would have a cat and that pissed him off so fucking bad bc what the fuck do you mean he doesn't look like a cat person . and so he did end up showing you all a picture of his cat (it was a pic of it sleeping on his chest btw), and though he did do it in front of the class, meaning none of you got to see it up close, it still mattered. it made you all love him even more<33333333

Tragedy enjoyers when there’s not one, not two, but three combinations of tragic relationships at the center of the narrative AND they’re bisexual

Everyone respects him. For of all the deer in the forest, not one has lived half so long. He's very brave and very wise. That's why he's known as the Great Prince of the Forest.

One Piece Film: Z (2012)

Rewatching this movie and zoro's never beating the allegation i fear... (whipped af)

Something about zoro's reaction being the first one shown after luffy won his battle.. zoro sighing in relief and smiling softly at his captain... zoro glancing at sanji for a moment only to return his gentle gaze to his captain (need to look at his captain fondly just a lil bit longer!)

Also something about zoro being the closest person to luffy during his fight?? because of course, zoro'd be the first one to act if something real bad happened to his captain during the fight (just like luffy during zoro's fight against mihawk) like, yeah, sure, whatever-

I know it's such a basic film school sort of reading of severance to say it but I still love how the actual severance sequence shows you the focal length changing. how the innies are at a much shorter focal length in comparison to their outies so literally their world shrinks when they go down that elevator and even though it widens when they come back up even though they seem more human and their lives more full with the wider focal length they're drowning in empty space as a result and ultimately more hollow than their innies lives are.

[weirdly-specific-but-ok]

okay so idk what meta is but listen THE DIRECTION ON DEAD BOY DETECTIVES IS FUCKING SUPERB. UNRIVALLED. AND I NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT TO THE HELLSITE VOID. SO LISTEN.

transitions. between scenes. it's so easy to cross-fade, or just hard cut, or fade to black and then open the next scene. sometimes, if a piece of media is putting in a bit of effort, you'll see things like water transitioning to sky or maybe a background being continuous while the characters change or vice versa.

but dead boy detectives. the transitions are fucking flawless. and so creative, like everything about this show. creative transitions are difficult to do, and they keep getting it right. whether it's someone holding up a circle and that melds into the next scene where the railing has a circle in it, or the camera moving downwards from the floor in one location to under a table in a different location, or them falling out of mirrors, they take the tiniest of elements and turn them into transitions so fucking deliciously, and everything is so dynamic, both the camera and the scene.

and that makes it so much more impactful when there IS a hard cut. like in episode 5 (where the You Know What occurs with Jenny). the cut from the mascot at the high school scene to the butcher's shop is BRUTALLY hard, with Jenny again slicing into things with her meat cleaver, and it lends an extra air of violence to that meat cleaver--which is such great foreshadowing for what happens later (even the initial establishing shot of the butcher's shop at the start of the episode makes the cleaver in the sign flash red, drawing attention to it).

the direction helps the narrative so much, giving both atmosphere and foreshadowing without needing to fatten the dialogue with it.

and apart from all that just the general camerawork is so creative and helps with the campy feel of the show, with characters being bang in the middle of frames or with the camera holding a lovely shot for longer than a beat like Edwin and Niko cocking their heads to the side it's all such a lovely, choreographed dance between the camera, the actors, the set and the script and NGKKK.
