#yes i Know the character is not real and the actor is not the character. at all times.

1. One of the voices of master prank caller they attempt to prank call is Sam Maron the voice of Muscle Man but Muscle Man is not the master prank caller.

2.

3. This episode is kind of retconned by its depiction of pops having ever been not the giggly character we know.

4. Skips is so fuckin cool dude.

5. I got to the part where the supposed High Five Guy shows up. It's definitely High Five Ghost's voice actor, J.G. Quintel, doing the High Five Ghost voice. Yeah sure.

One problem.

This episode is season 1 episode 9. In season one, HFG is voiced by Jeff Bennett.

So is that guy canonically High Five Guy? No. Is this a cute head-canon tho? Yes. Absolutely.

So here's what I'm proposing to J.G. Quintel. Make this canon. Make this guy High Five Guy and give us an HFG (even earlier than the real episode) origin story. Show us his death and rebirth.

Before he was High Five Ghost do you think he was High Five Guy?

LITERALLY WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING!!!

Why do people scream HISTORICAL ACCURACY when the og movies were never accurate to begin with???? Yes, it’s a movie about dragons; we know that. But the Vikings in the og franchise NEVER EVEN CALLED THEMSELVES VIKINGS IN HISTORY. There’s so many things that the characters do in the franchise that make sense to us as a Western audience, but were definitely not something they did in real life. It’s just a culture inspired but what we now call the Viking period.

Yes, I was suprised they casted a woman of color as Astrid; yes, I was expecting all casting to be exactly the same as the animated counterparts. But does it really matter at the end of the day? No! Nico Parker has her face shape, she has her beauty, she’s a great actress. I can’t say much because we have not seen her performance yet, but so long as she is true to WHO Astrid is, that’s what is needed.

Nico Parker looks fantastic as Astrid with beautiful braids and blonde streaks. Her outfits look great! I do wonder why she’s wearing red instead of blue in many scenes, but personally, I think they’re capturing the essence of her look in terms of accessories.

I’m not saying I 100% back this movie up. Not matter how positive I may be, as a die hard fan, I never wanted nor asked for a live action adaptation. I do not believe it is necessary and makes it seem like animation is not enough. I wish they re-released the originals to captivate “new” audiences.

I don’t like the castings for the twins, I don’t like how fake the arena looks. I don’t like the “new” take on the HTTYD theme. There’s probably more I’ll have complaints about. But I’m gonna be positive. My young sister is excited. I see her excitement for it. And dang it am I making her watch EVERYTHING in the HTTYD franchise. It’s been fun.

But I still want to see it. I personally see passion being put into by the actors that were excited to be apart of it. I haven’t had too much faith in Dean DeBlois’ writing since HTTYD 3, but I truly see his passion for this world and I, too want to see this project succeed.

I give credit where credit is due and criticize what I personally don’t like. I understand the dislike against it.

At the end of the day, i chose peace over being angry, and will be looking forward to the release date.

“It’s not historically accurate! It’s cultural appropriation! Why doesn’t Astrid have blonde hair and blue eyes?!?”

I mean, Vikings didn’t wear horned helmets OR have American/Canadian/Scottish accents or even ride fucking DRAGONS but I didn’t see any of you cry about historical inaccuracy then. Just say you’re racist and move on.

when I say down bad I mean the baddest of downs

[sandinmybed]

I get that people are upset but "recast will byers! from now on I'm drawing him like THIS instead!" and he looks exactly the same but with a smaller nose? that's not helpful and tbh it's just antisemitic. did we not agree like less than a year ago that removing actor's ethnic features in fanart is racist? at best this is performative and at worst it is racism

i kinda want to write a deep dive essay on silence of the lambs WRT gender and transmisogyny bc it's actually a much more complicated topic than a lot of people realise

[unproduciblesmackdown]

billions(tm): it's incredible how we just provide a little snippet of material designed to be "guy we all want to push down the stairs immediately somehow" and through this amazing acting alchemy it becomes gold. electric. magnificent. we can't get enough so we will just keep writing this loser character and the actor will somehow keep bringing the dazzling transmutation through his ability

me, encountering a photoshoot of or interview with an actor who plays a fictional character I am Not Normal about, out of costume and character and living their life as an actor, unexpectedly and abruptly reminding me that the fictional character does not in fact exist or have a life or interiority and is in fact portrayed by a Real Fucking Person who does exist and has thoughts and goals and dreams and a whole life entirely unrelated to that nonexistent fictional character, and could hypothetically stumble across my Being Not Normal On The Internet about one of many characters they pretended to be in exchange for a paycheque: ah lads not again

[altschmerzes]

always good to remind oneself that it is always an option to simply block and ignore people who are being Weird To You on your posts. it is never necessary to engage. If It Sucks Hit Da Bricks.

not to be a bitch but it's so funny how most henry stans just like. totally ignore everything to do with will as if this show doesn't exist all because henry went after him and refused to let him go. as if will is not his perfect character foil. as if it's not all leading to what happened in the upside down and how the only stories left to learn are those of will and henry. like... . .. ok. this is me, ur resident gatekeeper, officially snatching away their stanning licenses until they pass their necessary continuing education courses aka rewatch the show 🤨

my favourite dw episode being written by moffat is just me trying to keep people who want to box me into a specific type of dw fan on their toes

Part of me is really into the Snape v. Marauders discourse and part of me is just thinking a lot of people seem to argue like there's a right or wrong when that's not how people work? Everyone has their own truth. You may disagree with it, and that person will disagree with you, and it's not always fine but that doesn't mean that your blorbo is objectively right and your anti-blorbo is objectively wrong. Just because you think a character is in the wrong for their actions doesn't itself make your blorbo be in the right. The most interesting thing is the complexity of what makes a character grey.
