Hi!
Sorry to bother you. I love your content and I saw you also were posting about Mean Girls (2024). I love that movie. I also love the idea of Reneè as Mia.
I also love Auli’i from the same movie. I think she really brought a new angle to Janis and I thought that was really cool. (Also, Pasifika rep is always important to me).
Bringing them up because I saw your blog has some Regina x Janis posts. You don’t have to answer: do you have a favorite song from the musical (can be movie or Broadway)?
Sorry again to bother and if this is mean/weird. Have a good day/night!
never ever a bother to talk about mean girls or renee dont u worry
i do have a fave song from the musical, though its different for each, for the bway version it's Stop, and im so so sad it didnt make the movie (jaquel wouldve killed it). though erika's rendition of stupid with love is a close second mostly just for the calculust part.
as for movie my favourite song, and scene, is Someone gets hurt! love love love. (apex predator by auli'i and jaquel is my close second. and obviously also world burn)

guys how much hype would we get if we made a side blog akin to @your-fave-respects-xenogenders except its for pasifika headcannons? we have so many and kinda feel the need to make this poll time! :3 answering the poll, comments and reblogs are more valued than likes on this one, guys!

on the one hand I'm selfishly curious about the other atlanteans' casting (not least of all bc uh... I hate aquaman sorry, I hate that their atlantean royal family is so white supremacist-y), otoh I REALLY want them to get the right fit for this cast which imo is gonna mean pulling from new talent rather than the tiny native hollywood pool, especially because I want tenoch huerta to be the visual standard for marvel's atlantis.
like I don't want a repeat of the blu hunt & blair redford xcu (or tbh the odette annable & meaghan rath in banshee) casting standards, I don't want a centering of white passing lightskinned actors anywhere near BP. I don't wanna see anyone who's been in a twilight movie lol. I want fresh faces & I want fresh blood. I want the same vibes as cree summer disney atlantis, when the visuals were fresh, new, and the characters were all unambiguously brown.
I wanna have fun & I hate to be a hater but that can't happen with the big names y'all know on the american indigenous acting scene, I'm sorry— but I don't wanna see gil or chaske or zahn or wes. I don't wanna see tonantzin or tanaya.
I want the casting director to make an effort and give us what we've somehow still been waiting for and let coogler realize his vision, and I want it not to be something catering to non latino visuals of indigeneity & non indigenous visuals of latinos.
#statements to make white ndns & white latinos mad#like honestly i'm a bit frustrated the casting call isn't also explicitly inclusive of pasifika ppl#but i understand needing to 1. distance themselves from dc atlantis & 2. focus on wakanda-atlantis beef in the atlantic#that said though i want ALL the ''reverse colorism'' baby... exclude me bitch!!! nobody who look like me need to be in this movie!!!#literally all your faves AND mine too need to stay their asses at HOME and tf AWAY from the dora milaje in atlanta okay... okay#namor#black panther#black panther 2#wakanda forever

Hi! First of all, thank you so much for your post about the maori cultural influences in Taika's work, it was really interesting! The only work about maori culture that I was familiar with is a film called Whale Rider that I watched for a university class years ago. Is it considered like a staple in New Zealand or was it one of those films that are more popular abroad? (Also sorry for my English)
oh Whale Rider is one of my all time faves forever (also im pacific islander but not māori. it’s just their media has a large impact on the rest of us in poly/micro/melanesia so im not speaking as a native/local to nz but as a fellow pasifika)
it’s def a staple in the pacific, and not just for how much critical acclaim the film received, but bc the production was sooo Māori (even tho Niki Caro the director isnt, she was born and raised in NZ, committed to telling the story with respect). it was a big deal to make an adaptation of Witi Ihimaera’s novel bc he’s one of the pioneers of Māori literature. the fact that the producers were very intent on shooting in the real settings of the book, casting iconic Māori actors, and then finding a Māori lead like Keisha Castle-Hughes who would end up being, at the time, the youngest ever to be nominated for the best actress oscar (and def the first pacific island woman to be nominated). so yea idk it was huuuge and remains a staple bc it’s an excellent film but also was a massive cultural moment for Māori art and pacific island stories as a whole.

Hello, kia ora, and welcome!
hello everybody! I am mod Eli, and this is your fave is pasifika! the goal of this blog is to bring more representation to the pasific community through headcannon!
Basics! We are a mixed origin endogenic system, but the only alter who will post on this blog is Eli. Our collective pronouns are he/they/xe (pronoun page on our main blog) We are Maori and Pakeha mix, with our kaupapa originating from iwi Ngapuhi and Ngati Kuri! :3
Pfp, stats and more! :D Character in pfp: Johnny Cade - The Outsiders (1983) Flag in pfp (if applicable): Maori flag Character in banner: Raine Whispers - The Owl House Flag in banner (if applicable): Flag of Niue
DNI:- basic DNI (racists, homophobes, fatphobes, transphobes, etc. - anti therians (why are you even here in the first place?) - PROSHIPPERS!!!!! - Z00PHIL3S!!! GET OUT OF HERE!!!!! I DON'T LIKE YOU!!!! - anti-recovery/anti-cluster a, b, c - anti-oxford comma (this is so random but I'm very passionate about it) - gore, smut, pro-conact big 3 paraphilias/any gross philias - proana/ed/sh blogs. this is very distressing as most members of our system (such as nico, raul, luther, and xip) struggled with things like this in the past. do not interact with me. do not interact with my blog. I check every blog I see pop up in my activity feed. if I see you, you will be blocked. - anybody mean in general (you will be blocked if I don't like you!)
