Someone please distribute Wild Zero 2!

All I want for the movie industry is there to be a Wild Zero 2 movie. I love Wild Zero, it is my favorite movie of all time but there is no distributor willing to work with the Wild Zero 2 project.

I love the band Guitar Wolf as well as Guitar Wolf (Seiji), the singer and guitarist who was in the first movie with his bandmates from the 2000s. Their music is so crazy and loud it's unlike any other band. i think if they were to make a sequel we could also get more music!

This movie truly has it all, a silly ass main guy, honest queer representation, a beloved neurodivergent character, a married couple who are broke as hell, zombies, aliens, a morally skeptical girlboss, and the band Guitar Wolf who seek justice in a corrupt world!

You may want to turn off your brain, but you need to feel with your heart!

It also has a dedicated drinking game, if you can count the amount of explosions, fires, exploding heads, beers, and "ROCK AND ROLL"s, but I wouldn't recommend trying it. Unless you are Seiji himself or you take shots of apple juice, you will die.

This movie encapsulates the deepest parts of who I am (I will go further into detail further down), and it is what I show the people closest to me. When I was depressed in high school, I thought of Guitar Wolf shouting at me to never give up. I made it far enough to see last year, when I showed a guy this movie and now we're boyfriends. This movie has improved my life. I guarantee you, if it doesn't speak to you the first time, it WILL hit the second like it did for me.

Please check out Seiji's message and pilot trailer, and share with people you know, especially if you know people in the film industry!

(*****spoilers ahead for wild zero******)

I saw myself in Ace as a young and stupid fan of Guitar Wolf. I also saw myself in the Guitar Wolf band members, for being cool as shit and an avid supporter of queer rights.

Finally, I saw myself in Tobio as a trans person facing uncertainty from the way people have treated us.

I want to see Guitar Wolf succeed, they have genuinely changed my life and outlook of the world for the better.

Thank you for reading!! I love Guitar Wolf...

Very Much! /ref

shout out to forgotten asians.

shout out to south asians: asians from india, pakistan, sri lanka, bangladesh, afghanistan, bhutan, maldives, nepal.

shout out to ignored east asians from countries less romanticized than china, japan, and south korea: to mongolia, taiwan, vietnam, and further southeast to singapore, malaysia, the philippines, east timor, brunei, cambodia, myanmar, laos, thailand, indonesia.

shout out to ethnic groups within more known asian countries, like the tibetan people in china and the ainu and ryukyuan people in japan.

shout out to russian asians. shout out to central asians in former soviet countries, to people from kazakhstan, turkmenistan, tajikistan, uzbekistan, kyrgyzstan.

shout out to western asians in countries that don’t fit neatly into trivial western/european geographical boundaries of the middle east, of south asia, of europe, of africa. 

shout out to mixed asians, to latinx asians, to black asians, to indigenous asians, to mixed south and east asians, and every combination.

asian people are more than just the same few ethnicities shown on tv.

shout out all the asians who have no clue what the hell their grandma is saying bc you and your mom were born in the US!

(The play cracks open into a celebration of the feminine. Maybe Larry lip-syncs to a song sung by someone in love. Maybe Rabby and Tedra drink wine and cackle and dance in their seats. Maybe the old bones of Rev get up and dance with newfound freedom and joy. Maybe Opal throws dollars at Larry. Maybe Tio rolls a blunt. Maybe Juicy is serenaded. Maybe this is all a love song. I don't know how long this should last. I would say it should last long enough for the whole experience to move from something normal to something sublime. Lights burn on until we are all gone... Like stars. That's it.)

god this show..

I was closeted when I saw it, I don't think I'll experience a show with such understanding and joy again.

[gransolo]

[sweeneyarts]

I just want to live...

Is that so wrong?

•••

OKAY- after sitting with the movie for a day... I loved it, actually. Wow- so I locked in for my first fanart of Iron Lung. I'm gonna see again soon! I wanted to watch it once more before it left the theatre. I'm very thrilled to see it again 🥹

Enjoy!

FARLEY GRANGER as GUY HAINES Strangers on a Train (1951) dir Alfred Hitchcock

[gransolo]

Nervous boys who kiss scary boys

best trope

Guy Haines and Bruno Antony (Strangers on a Train)

Toxic situationship, lots of unrequited jealousy and obsession.

They have a lil meet cute at least, it had to be cut short for American audiences due to its homosexual tension

Phillip Morgan and Brandon Shaw (Rope)

Don't save him he's exactly where he wants to be.

Homosexual tension despite the Hays Code

Both their actors are queer!

Yoshiki and Hikaru? (The Summer Hikaru Died)

I only got the first book but it was really beautifully drawn! I think its an anime now?

Idk their dynamic too well, but they fit the trope

Honorable mention: nervous girl and scary boy!

Joe and Daphne (Some Like it Hot)

Joe is crossdressing, Daphne discovers she is trans while crossdressing with Joe.

Daphne usually folds to Joe's wishes

I think it's a play now?

[officialfoxsquadron]

audiences have no idea how to be uncomfortable anymore

[officialfoxsquadron]

watch movies that make you uncomfortable read books that make you uncomfortable go to plays that make you uncomfortable watch tv that makes you uncomfortable look at paintings and sculpture and artwork that makes you uncomfortable. it is spiritually and morally and ethically and artistically really really good for you. think about why you are uncomfortable. what biases do you bring to art? what biases does the art bring to you? how do you reconcile this? how does your worldview grow and expand and change? all this and more will be answered and available to you if you just engage with art that does not coddle you and treats you like an intelligent human being that can sit through discomfort

[gransolo]

ugh i love farley

nervous boy kissing scary boys.....
