Details in Stan's letter that still haunt me

(how long will I continue thinking about a two page letter that's technically not even that long because Stan's handwriting is fricking large? .....you don't need to worry about that.)

The bro code only shows up in the Lost Journal pages, and to me Stan's message feels like it purposely echoes Ford's "miss you" in the college photo (and for some reason the message doesn't appear in the website version of the photo?) ....or alternatively Stan simply noticed how distressed Ford was about this entire thing and wanted to support him in a way so he can be sappy but without the kids knowing, or both!

Stan's claim about the Oregon lottery contradicts what the Lost Legends website said about Tate McGucket's ability to predict the winning numbers!! ...but also breaking into the Lottery HQ is definitely a very Stan thing to do and it's not the first time small gags have been retconned

Despite spending most of his letter nonchalantly destroying him, the taunt about ripping a dollar bill in half is the only part where Stan is directly responding to Bill. Maybe it's the two of them having similar ways of thinking but it's rather specific considering Bill taunts the reader about it...

And after Bill spends an entire book calling Ford Sixer despite normally using a pretty wide range of nicknames for him, Stan then spends his letter mainly referring to Ford as Sixer, even though post-Weirdmageddon he tends to use a mix of nicknames. And it's not like he'd gotten to see Bill himself for long, let alone see him steal that childhood nickname (that is only used twice in the actual show btw!). Did Ford tell him what happened or...?

With all this and the website's "still on your mind" message, what I'm getting at is my tinfoil hat theory of Stan somehow seeing some of the pages the irl readers saw, even when it should be personalised to the specific reader, and he's been lying about it for some reason. Considering that the book flat out doesn't make an attempt at convincing Soos, I find it a stretch that whatever Bill was telling Stan via the book was an attempt to convince him either.

Wouldn't be the first time Stan's skimmed through a book and lied about what it meant to him.

(...Now I kinda wanna see a story about the family reading their versions of the book and making fun of it while Stan is improvising every single one of his pages and blatantly ignoring Bill's attempts to mock and taunt him)

But also I'm fascinated by the letters that only showed up on the website (aka the Soos+Wendy+McGucket+Pacifica ones). I'm assuming that Mabel had stuck them on after Stan's letter... but they were basically eaten by the book itself because seeing Stan's letter kick-started Bill's breakdown which takes up the rest of the book

"Real Boy" and Vil.

This means a lot coming frm Vil, reason 1 is that I literally admire Vil a lot(like how you would admire a real life person), reason 2 is the fact that Vil is a only child.

Most only child's often make assumptions abt siblings that they are 'always together' or 'similar interests' etc.

Vil probably had to take the role of a 'spoiled only child' at some point in his acting career :( And he puts a shit lot of effort into stuff he does, so he probably did some research on how actual siblings interact w/ each other.

Anyways onto the actual topic I'm supposed to be talking abt (everytime i see vil i act like a victorian gentleman seeing ankles for the 1st time and the problem is vil isn't even wearing anything revealing lol)

Vil saying 'Ortho has his own life' is actually really damn important. 1st of all, it's bc in book 6 the robot Ortho & real Ortho's souls merge together, making BOTH Ortho's 'real' in some way or another.

2nd of all, he says this in the Pinocchio inspired event ToT, with the end of the story being Pinocchio becoming a real boy, and in GloMas Idia also gets some sort of development ToTT, I'm interested to see what kind of things will Ortho go through.

okay, it's been 20 years and i never noticed this detail, but that scene in brother bear where denahi says, "i don't blame the bear, kenai". i think for the longest time, i never quite understood why kenai was speechless for a few seconds. i just thought they disagreed about the bear being responsible for sitka's death (obviously, i was just a kid when i watched this movie regularly)

but then i realized, with denahi looking away... he probably meant that he blamed kenai for it. and it makes sense, because throughout the movie kenai implies that he does blame himself for sitka's death, considering he calls the bear - or himself - a "monster". i also considered that maybe denahi didn't actually mean he blamed kenai, but the latter still heard it. not sure which one is the correct interpretation, though i'm assuming the first one is judging by their expressions and body language in their brief silence.

but either way, as i've talked about before, it's so interesting watching how kenai blames himself, yet by projecting that guilt onto his hatred of bears. this movie is so incredibly mature and i think it'll remain one of my favorites from disney.

ik taka is technically in the wrong in the mufasa movie, even disregarding what he did in the lion king, but it was certainly not his fault at all. taka was just as much as a victim as mufasa, and i adore how the film shows us that.

‘brother betrayed’ is one of my favourite songs in the soundtrack because of the way it gives us a view into taka’s mind and his torment. you can hear his indecision and hurt in his voice and it is so heartbreaking, you can practically feel the way taka’s pride and hurt are fighting his love for mufasa. he never thought his brother would ever betray him, and yet mufasa told sarabi of his feelings even while knowing of taka’s own affection for her. obviously mufasa’s love wasn’t his fault, but in taka’s view, mufasa owes taka his life. the shock and sadness which quickly turns to anger is so clear in taka’s song and it gives me chills every time i hear it.

you can also really see the way taka has been indoctrinated with his father’s views of how a king should act and be treated in the lyrics; with the line ���i’m next in line, she should be mine” we can see the clear prejudice and pride taka had enforced within him growing up, and in the next line “are the ancestor’s laughing?” we can see how his father’s expectations have led him to believe his whole family were ‘strong’ (meaning they weren’t selfless or humble) and that by letting mufasa have sarabi he’d be disgracing them. taka’s anger at mufasa was made more logical in his mind because of his father raising him to believe that being royalty meant that everyone was below him and taka deserved anything and everything he wanted.

the way taka’s father told him mufasa would betray him because he was a stray made it easier for taka to hate mufasa as a traitor as well, rather than seeing that mufasa and sarabi’s feelings were something they couldn’t had no control over, which we can see with the line “he never trusted you, did he know you’d betray me so?”

also the fact that mufasa refused to call taka by his name and essentially forsook taka in turn even after taka realised his mistake and saved mufasa again obviously contributed to taka’s rage, rage that festered over years, leading to mufasa’s murder.

i truly can’t see taka as the villain at all, and it’s one of the reasons why I think the movie is so genius because it perfectly portrays both sides of the story and gives the viewer a personal insight to taka’s pain in a way which makes his torment impossible to dismiss. i know loads of people were upset at disney for changing the original story to make people sympathise for scar, but honestly i think the story is so much more tragic and has so much more depth this way than the usual black-and-whiteness of movies directed to kids.

it makes me feel sick to the stomach in a good way to think of taka and mufasa’s tale, and comparing the cubs we hear in ‘i always wanted a brother’ to the lions who threaten and fight each other in the lion king makes me want to cry. the playfulness, hope and joy in the brothers as cubs so quickly turned to hatred due to stupid and entirely avoidable reasons, and fucking hell if it doesn’t make me shake. i just love it sooooo much, the movie and music is so genius.
