He made it with filmmaker and BLM activist Sol Guy and you wouldn’t know from the title, but it’s actually a short film, not a documentary, about Darren Wilson being a fucking liar.
Tumblr completely erasing the work of a Black activist/artist while simultaneously finding ways to slander an LGBTQ Jewish person at the same time due to literally not bothering to find out what the film was about in the first place? I’m shocked.
So I just tweeted about this but I can’t stop thinking about how swm are mad because the she-ra reboot apparently “butchers” the original show, as if these guys actually grew up watching She-Ra, a show marketed to the girls whose brothers liked He-Man, a show with awful, cheap animation, character design, and voice acting, a show with lazy writing because it didn’t have to be good, a show whose only purpose in existing was to sell toys……… Yeah. It must be sooo disappointing to see something so meaningful to so many people (???? Lmfao) be turned into something that barely even resembles its source material. What a fucking tragedy. I guess—if the source material were actually something with substance. The only reason why the cultural memory of He-Man and related characters survived into the 2010s is because of that fucking heyeeyeayeeayeayea video. You know the one. It was, and remains to this day, legendary. But if it weren’t for that MEME, and our culture’s current obsession with 80s nostalgia, no one would give a SHIT about Eternia and Etheria. Are people really so blinded by their nostalgia that they can’t reconcile with the fact that this shit was literally just advertisement? No, I don’t think so. Swm are just mad because She-Ra was a Sexy Hot Ladie and now she’s like 14 so they can’t jack off to shitty hentai commissions of her without feeling one (1) ounce of guilt about it. Waaaaaaahh they made Spinnerella fat!!! ThEy WuiNed HeR deSigN :c As if
THIS
Was
by some logic
the PINNACLE
of artful character design.
Give me a break
Do you want me to show you side by side images of Scorpia’s original design and her design in the reboot? Do I really have to do that?
Do you really believe that the original is better than the redesign
I spent a good half day being boggled over the fact that Uncle Iroh from A:TLA’s title was (and probably continued to officially be, among several others) Prince Iroh. Like, no, his official title is “Uncle”. Uncle of the Fire Nation.
Zuko ghostwrote this.
well, ‘Uncle’ was the title Iroh was most proud of
There are alot of great lines in deltarune but none beat out when ralsei gives susie advice on complimenting people by saying “just tell them something you wish people would say to you” and susie responds with “you are unbanned from free ham sandwich day”
I think one of my absolute favourite things about TAZ is that Griffin got to write a campaign in which the three free agents, the three moving parts that he relied on to make his story work, were the three people he knows best in the whole universe. People talk about Griffin’s story being ‘on rails’ but it’s not. It’s just that – unlike most DMs – Griffin can predict his family’s behaviour in advance in a way most people couldn’t hope to do. If he were playing with a different group, the story never would have turned out the way it did, but because he knows his family, he could fairly accurately predict the big decisions.
He writes a voidfish into the story, because he knows his brother is kind to animals, knows he’d never leave a sentient baby jellyfish on a planet about to get eaten, not even narratively. He’s not writing Travis into a corner, Travis would never consider doing anything else. He writes Taako a sister – a best friend, a twin, a soul mate – because he knows that Justin is a big brother to his very core, knows that his instincts will always fall in line with sibling loyalty and devotion, even when he’s playing an aloof elf who doesn’t care about anyone. He writes his dad into the trickiest position of them all – facing true horror, sitting across the table from the end of the world – and he knows that his father will respond with compromise and understanding, with love and joy and compassion, because he’s seen that grace in his father his whole life. Griffin was betting on those qualities that he already knew his family possessed, and it was the safest bet he ever made! Because they were amazing, and he always knew they would be.
