Wait what does aggressively heterosexual even mean?
Dear Tim Burton
Dear #TimBurton,
Up Yours. I just went with a friend to see Miss Peregrineâs Home for Peculiar Children, and weâd been excited for weeks (it only just came out in Mongolia). I even rushed to finish reading it before the Mongolia release.
Mr. Burton, the protagonist in MSHfPC is #Jewish. His grandfather is a#Jew. Itâs a story about Jews and the monsters who chase us. A huge part of the book is questioning whether Grandfatherâs âmonstersâ were supernatural monsters, or the real monsters of Nazis hunting Jews, the Monsters that murdered his entire family. Did he go to the childrenâs home because he was a peculiar or because of the dangerous peculiarity of being a Jew in Europe in WWII?
Yet in your film, the word âJewâ was spoken exactly zero times. You wiped away the charactersâ identities. And donât you DARE claim that it was an unintentional omission, because you proved that it wasnât. See, in the book, Grandfather Abe often calls Jake âYakov,â the Jewish form of Jacob. Yet in the movie, you changed that into a Polish nickname. So you canât claim this was an omission when you and your team took the time to re-write even his nickname to make it not Jewish.
So Up Yours for your white-bread characters and white-bread movies. Up Yours for making the only POC character in the entire film the bad guy. And finally, Up Yours for taking away, yet again, the chance for us to see one of our own, a Jewish Protagonist promised in the novel, on screen.
Oh man itâs like everything that could have possibly gone wrong with this beautiful story did making this movie. Ugh
This movie is horrible and sad; Iâm so disappointed in everyone who was a part of Tim Burtonâs ignorant vision.
and seeing this post reminded me, this is not the first time burton has stripped jewish references/characters/elements when adapting a story for film.
remember the corpse bride, the original story was a piece of 16th century jewish folklore, and there were zero elements of any sort of jewish culture or religion in the film that i can recall.
according to the co-screenwriter the change was made because âbecause Tim gravitates toward universal, fairy-tale qualities in his films.â
because pasty white vaguely christian characters are universal, but no one else is, even when youâre stripping their stories for material.
so casting non white actors for heroic roles doesnât suit his âvisionâ, and respecting the religion and ethnicity of characters from the source material doesnât suit his âvisionâ. his vision that mostly seems to be putting johnny depp in weird makeup to diminishing returns.
(i mean, even the movie of his that has stood up best over time, the nightmare before christmas isnât even close to being completely âhisâ the way these two movies are, it was directed by henry selick, adapted by michael mcdowel with caroline thompson writing the actual screenplay, and danny elfman did the songs. and frankly that movie was more jewish inclusive with one measly image on a tree than any of the projects where burton was more hands on)
I never knew any of that about Corpse Bride.
Yet somehow, Iâm not surprised
Tim Burtonâs Corpse Bride is based on S. Anskyâs The Dybbuk? Wow! Apparently a film critic spotted it when the film came out. I see from the Wikipedia summary of the Burton production that the arranged marriage is all mysterious and weird to the viewer. Yes, well.Â
WHAT????????
i can never face my family again
You ever see something so funny you bypass laughing entirely and go straight for crying?
Oh my gosh itâs back đ”đ”đ”đ
me: *loses boss battle for the 20th time*
me: *travels the 3 minutes it takes to reach the battle from the checkpoint each time*
*arrives*
boss: *MONOLOGUING*
ME:Â
as black friday and the holidays slowly creep up on usÂ
please please please remember to be kind to cashiers and retail workers
they want to be home and out of the store just as quickly as you want to be
I guarantee they are not getting paid enough to put up with your bullshit, and whatever material crap youâre buying isnât more important than being a decent human being to someone providing you a service. Come the holiday season I smile more, try to up the charm factor, and tip even better than usual (and Iâm a damn good tipper.)
You want to spread the spirit of positive winter holidays? Remember that retail workers are human beings and deserve respect and empathy.
luv him..
