i’m so tired of the way black actors are slept on while white actors get praised for the blandest, barest minimum. people like daniel kaluuya and ashton sanders really are in every way what you all thought tim charlemagne and adam diving board are. the sheer range daniel displayed between get out, black mirror, widows, and black panther? the subtlety ashton showed in 1/3 of moonlight ALONE!? and the problem is tenfold for black women because most of the time they’re not given a chance or they’re treated like shit (ie nicole beharie) unless they’re pre-established or pigeonholed into mammy/white savior/slavery era roles like viola davis, octavia spencer, and cyntia erivo. lupita nyong’o literally gave the best performance of 2019 and played TWO CHARACTERS IN ONE MOVIEEEEEE!!! a movie that literally changed the game for its genre!!!!!!! to near fucking crickets from the midsommar crowd who thought florence pew was doing something new crying in a flower crown!!!!

scarjo emoted for 5 minutes in the marriage story and she got academy nominations and everyone on this site swore she invented acting?!?!?! and mr chlamydia has sharp cheekbones i guess? and adam d shed a tear while committing patricide or yelling “every day i wake up” so now we gotta see them in every high profile movie from now until 2025.

People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

This, here, with coffee and with breakfast and with you is my life’s greatest magic. I couldn’t ask for anything more except for more mornings with you. I love you, never forget that for these moments I will always remember.

[books-n-quotes]

No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater…The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that’s the key. It’s like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot.

Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby (via books-n-quotes)

[fallback-onme-deactivated201702]

Waking up to your husband holding your half naked body with his. Peeling him off of you and crawling out of bed. Sneaking down to the kitchen. Putting in your headphones while you cook breakfast for the two of you. Hearing footsteps but pretending not to notice. His hands on your hips as he sneaks up behind you. You spin around for a kiss. Eating breakfast together on the porch of the house you own together. Taking a hot shower. Together. Crawling back into bed as the sun goes up into the sky. Sex. Napping. Laughing. More sex. More napping. More laughing. Take another shower. Get dressed up. Go to dinner together. Have a couple drinks. Have really good food. Walk around the city under the lights and the stars holding hands. Drive home. Take off all the fancy clothes. Climb back into bed. Fall asleep next to the love of your life, again.

give me two characters who are each other’s home. two characters who feel completely safe, warm and protected in each other’s presence, and who are completely respected by the other. two people who, on some level or another, were missing that little extra spark they needed to feel fully confident and accepted as their whole selves until the other came along. they don’t “fix each other” or “make each other better”–they give the other the support they need to build on what was already inside them. sure they might kiss, or make goo-goo eyes, but they can also just…talk, and make each other laugh and smile, because for once they feel comfortable enough in themselves and with each other to be vulnerable in that way. two complete people who finally find someone to share all of themselves with. and no matter what they do or how far they go, they’ll always have each other to come back home to.

“Lilo and Stitch” 2002

Deleted Scene

Lilo plays a trick on the tourists.

[leidis]

IF YOU LIVED HERE YOU’D UNDERSTAND

I desperately need to understand

WHY

WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY

Was this scene cut from the movie??!!

Fucking christ, do you know what this would have done? What this would have meant to SO MANY people??  The truth of this is devastating. And to think it almost found it’s way into a DISNEY film??

The inclusion of this scene alone would have made it the greatest animated feature the company ever produced. Easily. And if you think that’s hyperbolic clearly you don’t understand.

No, really, if anyone knows why this was cut PLEASE let me know. 

[snoozlebee]

oh man WHY WOULD they cut this, this is so great, holy MOLY

[coelasquid]

It was clearly something the crew was very reluctant to get rid of if it made it all the way to rough-clean (and in a few scenes clean!), fully inbetweened animation. That is like, thousands and thousands of dollars and weeks (months?!) of labour. Maybe a reluctant producer decided they would alienate their white middle-class American audiences by making them feel “too guilty” and pressed them to drop it? It’s unfortunate, it’s one of the most honest accounts of racism in a Disney movie (which is why it’s believable that someone got uncomfortable and made a case to get it chopped)

Designing entertainment by committee for maximum marketability is probably the most heartbreaking process in Hollywood.

I’ve been seeing this around my dash and think it deserves some more recognition!
