Dhshdhshjs truly have no opinion on this movie but I love it when she goes on movie rants
let the bodies hit the floor is such a scary song. usually bodies hitting the floor isn’t a good thing but this guy wants it to happen anyway.
and yet he insists there’s nothing wrong with him. haunting
OP disabled reblogs as I was in the middle of writing an extremely long reply and I'd usually let it go but some of these reblogs are spreading active disinformation about the X-Men and y’all know how I feel about that
The idea that Charles Xavier is based on MLK and that Magneto is based on Malcolm X is straight up urban myth.
As originally written by Stan Lee, the X-Men comics have basically nothing to do with social justice or prejudice. The idea of mutants as an oppressed class wasn't introduced until Chris Claremont's run started in 1975, and Claremont has explicitly stated that Professor X and Magneto were based on Israeli political leaders David Ben-Gurion and Menachem Begin.
As written by Claremont, Charles Xavier is at best deeply misguided, if well-intentioned. He is careless with the safety and feelings of those under his leadership, he is overbearing and hubristic, and he's utterly convinced that he always knows best, to the point of frequently manipulating his students. Magneto, meanwhile, becomes deeply sympathetic, and grows out of his trauma-based revenge spree to become genuinely caring and compassionate.
Comics throughout the 90s and 2000s would continue to paint Professor X as a manipulative jerk, while Magneto would regress and often take on a “realizing he's just as bad as the Nazis" role in his stories. It's around this time that the original FOX X-Men movies came out with wildly different interpretations of the characters and popularized the MLK / Malcolm X idea, with Stan Lee pulling a characteristic, "Totally, that was my idea the whole time, wasn't it genius" shtick.
All of that to say- @shofarsogood’s assessment of the characters is comic-accurate. I have never said, and I am not saying here, that movie adaptations shouldn't deviate from the comics in order to tell interesting and dynamic stories with people from different backgrounds. But I think we all have to be open and honest about those changes from the beginning. Because otherwise you're pulling from source material where your MLK stand-in is brainwashing children or shooting them in the face, while your Malcolm X stand-in is volunteering himself to the authorities to stand trial because he regrets the violent crimes he's committed.
hi bajoran workers since tomorrow is the first day of pride month all provably gay bajorans can have a 5 minute break and two extra crackers with lunch as long as you make a government approved statement to the federation saying that cardassia and specifically me gul dukat loves gay and pronouns as much as star fleet. okay goodbye.

I was a little confused by Never Let Go (2024) so I looked up some articles and Reddit threads about it and like
no one mentioned the alien??
(spoilers for Never Let Go)
I've heard some criticism of Turning Red is that kids of all different ethnicities get along, which would be great but, like most critiques of this movie, isn't true. The most visibly diverse groups--Mei's circle and Tyler's birthday party attendants--actually imply more tension behind the scenes.
Mei and her friends may look like a stereotypical feel-good multiracial clique at first glance, but they're all girls from marginalized ethnicities with the model minority stigma: Chinese, Korean, Indian, and Jewish. Adult viewers can see what these girls have in common and how they may have been excluded by other children. Out of all of them, Mei's mother consistently singles out White-passing Miriam as the "bad influence," which (in my opinion) shows clear discrimination because Miriam doesn't really act out any more than the other girls.
Mei also doesn't have any male friends, which are usually forced into kid content to combat sexism or enforce the creators' belief that the audience won't identify with opposite-sex characters. Real children typically separate themselves into single-gender cliques in early puberty, intensifying gender socialization as their identities develop*; it would be unrealistic for boys to be included in the group, again showing research and thought put into the characters and their relationships.
Meanwhile Tyler, a biracial boy, is usually seen on his own outside school-structured activities, and can only get other children to come to his birthday party by enlisting Mei's crowd-pleasing panda. It's unclear how many of his guests are actually friends with him, or each other. Despite being Asian (as well as Black) himself, Tyler calls Mei's temple "creepy" and criticizes her family, and few, if any, other students react. He's last seen attending the concert alone, again.
*this also applies to transgender children, whose attempts to join groups of their real rather than perceived gender can be an early indicator
fanartists who redesign Tuunbaq to look "scarier" by making it a mostly-normal polar bear with dozens of severed tongues as its main or only monstrous feature
have you considered
that Netsilik shamanism is not the real horror in this story? that there are thematic reasons why Tuunbaq looks like a fat old White man instead of an amalgation of Indigenous culture and indigenous wildlife?
just found out that accidentally in love by counting crows was literally made for shrek. they didnt just choose it. it didnt exist before. they asked counting crows to make a song for shrek 2 and thats how we got one of the best songs ever made. insane.

Okay I lied I'm not normal about Garak yet and I never will be. He canonically spent two solid years of his life high out of his mind on brain implant space drugs. He's constantly on the verge of killing everyone in the room and then himself. Sisko sent him to work-mandated therapy and he yelled at his therapist and made her cry. I'm obsessed with him
finally watching a new TV show again after convincing my pea brain "it's like a very short movie" "it's like a very long movie" "it's like an anthology but the opposite"
