My Most Underappreciated Films of 2023

Marten Katze and Jessi Gaston discuss their unwanted roommate in Dog Movie. As with my Overhyped Films list, these choices are entirely in earnest. For the most part, the critics didn’t get anything horribly wrong this year, but the audiences and awards groups are another matter; these films combined have three Globe nominations, no BAFTA nominations, and no Oscar nominations. So let’s give them…

Something for my favorite trope: Foggy Nelson as an unwilling and inadvertent vigilante magnet.

Bonus spideypool, my favorite ship.

thinking about how the extra area added on to a pacifist run of undertale, the true lab, is about alphys's past mistakes. how it ends with the story reaffirming that, despite the pain she's caused, the thing that matters is that she has now made the choice to do the right thing. she's still worthy of her friends' love.

thinking about how undertale doesn't expect the player to get a pacifist ending for the first time. how it's more likely than not that the player will kill toriel the first time they battle her, how lots of players don't initially figure out how to end undyne's fight without killing her, etc. what it expects — not even expects, really, but hopes — is that the player, if they care enough, will use their canonically acknowledged power over time to make up for those mistakes.

no matter how many neutral runs a player has done before committing to the pacifist run, the thing that matters to the characters, to the story, is that you've chosen, now, to do the right thing.

compared to alphys, the player honestly gets off lightly, in that you're the only one (other than flowey) who really remembers any harm you might have caused. and any direct guilting the game could have done about it is long past at this point. instead, as undertale often does, it makes its point via parallels: alphys caused harm, and she knows it. she has committed to being better. in doing so, she has unlocked for herself a better ending to her story. and she deserves it. she's forgiven.

those structural narrative parallels are all over undertale, if you know where to look. and that's one of the things that makes it so fuckin' good.

A dream redesign sketch dump. The first two is what I’m using for the comic. Sorry I changed him I just really don’t like the spandex zip tied body suit in his normal design. Also swap dream redesign because I really think he would fit a jester. Ok that’s all for today

My Most Underappreciated & Overhyped Films of 2022

Let’s end January on a spicy note. I write this having only seen 88 films for the year (“only,” he says), and have yet to see a number of films which might well merit mention, especially documentaries and foreign-language films. Besides, these lists are heavily subjective in terms of what constitutes “hype” and “appreciation.” Many of the overhyped films aren’t that bad; some of the…

I’m so strong for putting up with the other kings of Greece. #Except my bestie o-my-gods-just-let-me-die-omedes the only real one #if I have to hear agamemnon refuse to acknowledge the gods’ help one more time #he has so much hubris #could never be me

Day 57 in Troy: living my best life, my new “husband” was away today thank the Gods. I heard there’s going to be a war over me. Love the sentiment but it’s a little much y’know?

#my husband is so nice but he’s so dramatic #hes pooled together all the armies in Greece to come together #no hector hate in the reblogs ok? #hes actually pretty ok #we make fun of paris together
