I want to be excited for the live action Little Mermaid so badly
The Little Mermaid is my favorite Disney movie. Anyone who knows me knows I'm obsessed with mermaids as a whole and will watch any media that has them. Hell, I own my own tails and monofins. But every time I see a gif or a video for the new Little Mermaid, I cringe
(btw, this is NOT because of the casting. If you're against this movie because Ariel is black, you're a racist piece of shit and this post isn't for you)
My issue lies with the CGI. It just looks so FAKE. We've seen through the course of movies and TV shows that use it that CGI does not age well, and that's because technology is constantly improving. What was impressive in 2005 is not impressive in 2023 (Just look at Aquamarine, another movie about mermaids). And the CGI on Ariel and her sisters already looks fake and the movie isn't even out yet!
Compare this image from the trailer
To this screenshot from H20: Just Add Water (a TV show that came out in 2006):
You can see the details of the scales in the second image
The first image is flat. Sure, it's colorful, but it's flat. It's fake. Halle herself is the most beautiful and alive part of the image, because everything else is fake
The difference?
H20 had costume designers, ones specifically trained in mermaid tail making, HAND CRAFT every tail on the show. All of the scales were hand laid, all the tails molded to fit the actors/actresses perfectly, painted by hand
Let's even look at someone with no affiliation to TV or movies:
This is Mermaid Linden, a very well known (in the mermaid community) professional mermaid. You can tell her tail is not as high quality as the ones made for H20 (though it's still a VERY expensive tail) - but it still looks like it's a part of her. You can still see the details. Because professional mermaid tails are also all handmade and molded to fit each person. Even if they don't lay every individual scale, good professional mermaid tail makers are very meticulous about what they do.
This is what happens when Disney refuses to pay practical effects artists. We could have had beautiful, handmade tails that would look real on screen for decades to come and could be reused for promotional purposes - instead, they're underpaying and overworking their non-unionized employees to make CGI tails that don't even look real now.
(to be clear, I'm not shitting on the artists. As I said, they're being underpaid and overworked. This is not their fault)
And before anyone comes and says "But swimming in those is difficult!" Absolutely it is. You should never swim in a professional level tail (or even just fabric tails) without practice and training. Which Disney could have given the cast if they were willing to PAY people (the cast of H20 [a TV SHOW] literally learned how to be mermaids on set. It's been done before)
Disney's "Live Action" needs to be rebranded as "CGI with some real people tossed in" because that's all any of these remakes have been, and it's exhausting when I look at what we could have had.

Congrats to the ultimate winner of the Hot & Vintage Movie Men Tournament, Mr. Toshiro Mifune! May he live happily and well where the sun always shines, enjoying the glories of a battle hard fought.
A loving farewell to all of our previous contestants, who are now banished to the shadow realm and all its dark joys and whispered horrors—I hear there's a picnic on the village green today. If you want to remember the fallen heroes, you can find them all beneath the cut.
What happens next? I'll be taking a break of two weeks to rest from this and prep for the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament. I'll still be around but only minimally, posting a few last odes to the hot men before transitioning into a little early ladies content, just like I did with this last tournament. The submission form for the Hot & Vintage Ladies tournament will remain up for one more week (closing February 21st), so get your submissions in for that asap! Once the form closes, there will be one more week of break. The first round of the Hot & Vintage Ladies Tournament will be posted on February 29th, as Leap Year Day seems like a fitting allusion to leaping into these ladies' arms.

CLOSED! Preliminary Hot Vintage TV Men List
Alright folks! We have one week left on submissions for the Hot Vintage TV Men's Bracket! As promised here is a list of all the Hot Vintage TV Men who have been submitted and passed our preliminary eligibility checks. There are a handful of guys on this list and one or two not on it that we are currently still debating on so reminder that this list is not final and subject to change.
Currently we have 231 Hot Vintage TV Men!
Also in advance of the competition I'd like to remind anyone submitting propaganda for someone that starred in a show that aired only partially during our timeframe or was under 18 for a part of a shows filming, to please make sure you are only submitting propaganda that is from within our timeframe and when the actor was 18 years or older. This is also just good to keep in mind in general as several people submitted actors for shows that aren't eligible for our tournament either because it was outside our time period or in one case the actor was underaged for the entirety of the show (though many were eligible for other shows they were submitted for). We do our best to screen for these things but sometimes it's hard to tell or it’s a show we don't personally know well enough so we appreciate help from y'all letting us know if you do catch anything.
List below the cut

wasnerkevin: Sword in the head gag I applied for the HBO show OUR FLAG MEANS DEATH. Applied on Rory Kinnear who is just a brilliant actor and human being. The Team at Vincent Van Dyke effects did the very difficult task of figuring this gag out which they did brilliantly. I’m super proud of being involved on this project.

i found this blog by accident (i think the tumblr recommendations code or whatever figured out i have a polls addiction) and have had zero interest and experience in this topic but now. now i am so here. but i was wondering where i could go to watch movies with all these actors?? like i’m sure prime video or smthg might have a few classics hanging around but is there a service/website (of any legality) that specialises in vintage films and stuff? or is it really just physical media to get a lot of them? sry if this throws off your askbox, i didn’t know where else to ask! tyia <3
Hi!! I love this ask. Thanks for being here!
I don't know of any service that specializes in old movies, though HBO had a deal with TCM for a while that meant they had several classics on Max—I don't know if that's still a thing. In the meantime, though, the following websites all have "classic" channels that will be filled with great vintage movies to try:
Tubi—free streaming service that includes:
The Manchurian Candidate (Frank Sinatra, James Edwards)
The Philadelphia Story (James Stewart, Cary Grant)
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (Dick Van Dyke)
On The Town (Gene Kelly, Frank Sinatra)
House on Haunted Hill (Vincent Price)
The Adventures of Robin Hood (Errol Flynn, Basil Rathbone)
A Streetcar Named Desire (Marlon Brando)
The Maltese Falcon (Humphrey Bogart)
Hoopla—free through many libraries:
The Court Jester (Danny Kaye, Basil Rathbone)
War and Peace (Jeremy Brett)
Barefoot in the Park (Robert Redford)
Cabin in the Sky (Rex Ingram)
Wings (Gary Cooper)
Kanopy—free through many libraries:
The General (Buster Keaton)
Flower Drum Song (James Shigeta)
Roman Holiday (Gregory Peck)
Seven Samurai (Toshiro Mifune)
His Girl Friday (Cary Grant)
Wuthering Heights (Laurence Olivier)
Sabrina (Humphrey Bogart)
Paris Blues (Sidney Poitier, Paul Newman)
Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (Conrad Veidt)
Youtube also has TONS of movies that have slipped through copyright or "accidentally" ended up there:
Charade (Cary Grant)
The Gay Divorcee (Fred Astaire)
Lying Lips (Carman Newsome, Robert Earl Jones, Oscar Micheaux)
Stormy Weather (Harold Nicholas)
Rebecca (Laurence Olivier)
The Cheat (Sessue Hayakawa)
The Lady Vanishes (Michael Redgrave)
Jungle Book (Sabu Dastagir)
To Sir, With Love (Sidney Poitier)
It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World (Peter Falk)
What a Way to Go! (Dick Van Dyke, Gene Kelly, Paul Newman)
And of course there are methods of other legality if you want to go searching for titles by hand :)
I haven't seen all of the movies I list here—this is just a sampling of some famous ones, and a few of my secret faves—so be careful if you have trigger warnings and things. Hope you find some great movies!
#:D#i went a bit insane there. but you see. hot men!#if i had to pick one i'd say tubi has the best rotating selection?#anyway good luck anon!#asks#hotvintagethoughts

As a trans gal, before figuring that out, Lord Yupa from Nausicaa and the Valley of the Wind made a profound impact on us and he remains one of our favorite examples of masculinity who we relate to. Sweet, gentle, firm, brave, wise, kind, regretfully ferocious and calculated in battle, always looking for a peaceful and harmonious solution (even if he isn't always able to figure one out) and willing to defend the dignity and wellbeing of all and oppose imperial rule. We know the movie and manga Nausicaa and the Valley of the Wind are a little dated but we still adore them and they do have important things to say about the world
Some other good examples: Senshi (Dungeon Meshi), Bumblebee (Cyberverse, Bumblebee & Rise of the Beasts), Mirage and Noah (Rise of the Beasts), Optimus Prime and Darak among others (Energon Universe by Skybound), Captain Pike (Star Trek Strange New Worlds), Bo (She-Ra), Steven Universe (Steven Universe), Fiddler's Green and Matthew (The Sandman), Alan Zaveri (Russian Doll), Marten Reed and Winslow (Questionable Content), Ishmael (Moby Dick), Fone Bone (Bone Chronicles), Ezra Bridger and Zeb Orelios among others (Star Wars Rebels), Viktor (Umbrella Academy), Bogdan Ivanski (Steamworlds Heist), Chidi Anagonye, Jason Mendoza, and Michael (literally the point of the show the Good Place is about growing as a person and creating a better more just afterlife for doing that), Dr. Adrian Mallory (Space Force), Will Parry (The Subtle Knife / His Dark Materials), the Fortunate Navigator (Sunless Skies, also one of our favorite transmasc characters in fiction), Bobby Pendragon, Uncle Press, Vincent "Gunny" Van Dyke, Benn Spader, Wencil of Peldar (Pendragon: Journal of an Adventure Through Time and Space), Jack Morton (The Order), Bernard Lowe, Ashley Stubbs, and Caleb Nicols (Westworld), Ged / Duny / Sparrowhawk (The Earthsea Cycle), Commander Sinclair among many including the priests who show up in Season 3 they're amazing (Babylon 5), ...
...just want to note rn that most of the examples we've listed so far are modern, recent, there is not a dearth of good examples of masculinity what there is is the fact we still have a lot that is not but thinks that it is

COLD TURKEY United Artists 1971
Fantastic movie comedy -- easily one of the best satires of American life ever put on film. Norman Lear wrote and directed this gem just before moving on to "All In The Family". "Cold Turkey" and "All In The Family" are his two greatest creations. It begins with the script. It's funny from beginning to end. The script has clever dialogue, inventive ideas and an eye for detail.
The cast includes many all-time favorites, including Dick Van Dyke, Bob Newhart, Tom Poston, Barnard Hughes, Sudie Bond, Ted Knight, Gloria LeRoy, Vincent Gardenia, Pippa Scott, Peggy Rea, Paul Benedict, Edward Everett Horton, M. Emmett Walsh, Barbara Cason, Graham Jarvis, Jean Stapleton and show-stopper Judith Lowry. You'll see a lot of people you recognize from other movies and sitcoms of the 1970s, including many who turned up on "All In The Family" and other Lear shows. "Cold Turkey" is also the best movie showcase for possibly the greatest comedy team of all time, Bob & Ray. They are brilliant, satirizing newscasters of the time, like Walter Cronkite, David Brinkley, Paul Harvey, and Hugh Downs. Randy Newman's soundtrack is terrific.
And it helps that the movie, which is set in a small Iowa town, was actually filmed in a small Iowa town, rather than some Hollywood backlot. It gives the movie a feeling of authenticity.

Do you have a favorite power ranger color? If not, tell me about your favorite childhood show/s! I would always dream to grow up to be the yellow power ranger. I’ve met 2 of the actresses at cons too!! Ciara Hanna and Cerina Vincent!!
i have never seen any power rangers...i dont even know all the colors :P and i didn't watch tv as a kid 🧍the first shows i really loved were the recorded vhs' of the patty duke show, bewitched, and i love lucy. then i watched the mary tyler moore show and the dick van dyke show.....i had a very unrelatable childhood i think. the only actual kids content i really liked was peanuts movies i got to watch at grandmas house. but i still preferred the strips.
