Adventures in Imaginary Worlds

I'm a Catholic writer and reader. I like books, TV shows, and movies and I talk about them here, and I'll reblog anything that catches my fancy.

never tell me you dislike a trope unless you want me to suddenly decide I have always wanted to execute said trope flawlessly.

This is one of those automatic things. I don't choose to do it. I do go along with it privately. In my heart.

down with live action remakes, let’s get back to lavishly imagined full stage productions. I wanna see two full acts of Tangled, I want a dozen new songs including several deep cut ballads that will hit so hard you will wonder how the film held together without them, and I want the hair to be designed by a prop master on coke

@drharleyquinn-medicinewoman you get it!! but! ☝️ she ALSO has to be able to swing on it like Peter Pan on wires

There is a Tangled stage musical! Only an hour long and only shown on Disney cruises, but what I've seen is pretty good.

many people grow up and forget what it feels like to be a child. we must remember this. we have to remember what a joy it is to play. to learn. to build connections. to grow. to experience. we must hold onto the things that awe us. we are changed by what we love

NO, I WILL NOT BE COMING OUTSIDE. IM FAR TOO BUSY. ADDRESS ALL QUESTIONS TO MY WONDERFUL, TALENTED AND HANDSOME SERVANTS ZHAO GAO AND LI SI, WHOM I HAVE ENTRUSTED TO ACT IN MY NAME. YOU SHOULD TOTALLY LISTEN TO THEM AND DO EXACTLY AS THEY SAY.

The great thing about Gus is that he perfectly oscillates from playing the annoyed straight man to Shawn’s general insanity to yes-anding to an insane degree. For every moment where he says no Shawn, you did not hear that both ways there’s a moment where he, with no prompting, claims that his fictitious grandmother with a broken hip was teaching a line dancing class. For every time he says Shawn, stop messing around at work, there is a time where after Shawn says he’s been “looking at the man in the mirror”, Gus, in a move that never ever fails to make me laugh, with a completely straight face and no impact on the conversation, does the Michael Jackson “he-he”. He’s insane. He thinks he’s normal. He does 11 point turns. He’s a sympathetic crier.

I'm still baffled by the post that said that historically cultures normally only enslave people with different skin tones, cause that is so far from the truth it ain't even funny, you are applying america history/politics to the whole of world history and it's just not true. Honestly there isn't just one reason for slavery cropping up in history it is a stain on humanity that we will take practically any excuse to practice it. In greece if a child was or was thought to be illigitimate they were likely to be sold as slaves, in warring tribes and nations conquered peoples were brought back as slaves, in most lands if you became super in debt you could sell yourself into slavery to pay off that debt or worse the person you were in debt to could demand you become their slave, in more modern times (post Alexander the Great mostly) nations have liked to enslave people of differing religions, commiting certain crimes is also historically a traditional way to end up a slave, and in truly modern times several countries have quite liked the version where you work to death the political "deviants". So yeah no, there is no one way to end up being treated that way either legally or not and I am offended on the behalf of every enslaved person in history and your history teacher if you think that.
