Because I can’t stop messing around with the dialogue font, I made some New Leaf dialogue box templates from scratch. Feel free to use them any way you like.

Credit is appreciated, but not necessary.

Lilo and Stitch presenting an accurate representation of Hawaiians perspective on luaus held by tourists. 

#what’s sad about this is that this is actually what Hawaiians had to do when the western culture took over #a luau was a sacred practice #until the westerners took the concept and had the audacity to change it into a time to stuff your face with food and put on grass skirts and coconut bras and dance the hula #and when they had these events, they didn’t even let actual Hawaiian people in #so to make money to take care of themselves, the Hawaiians were hired to work in these disgraceful events to clean up after the tourists like slaves only to make less than a buck #so good job disney for doing your fucking research and educating these people #sadly, this still goes on even until today and it makes me sick

“good job disney” my ass, good job CHRIS SANDERS

[lyrangalia]

Let’s not credit just Chris Sanders for this. This happened because they cast actual Hawaiian Actors like Tia Carrere and Jason Scott Lee to play Hawaiian characters, and allowed the actors to have input into writing the characters’ lines. 

This sort of authenticity comes from accuracy and authenticity in casting choices. The fact that Chris Sanders as direct/writer facilitated that does not mean he gets credit for the actors’ experience.

This is why diversity and representation in media matters.

Dude as a hawaiian, this is like straight up what my life as a kid was. My mom worked at those fakey luaus full time to pay rent. My mom is someone who is absolutely passionate and proud about being a hawaiian, living and teaching the ways our ancestors lived and taught. See, we Hawaiians, we live by the way of aloha. And not by the way of “hello” “goodbye”, let me educate you. As Pono Shim, CEO and President of Enterprise Honolulu, the Oahu Economic Development Board, states absolutely perfectly “aloha is to be in the presence of life, to share the essence of one’s being with openness, honesty, and humility. It is a way of being, a way of behaving, a way of life. It is a commitment to accepting others and giving dignity to who they are and what they have to offer.” Aloha is more than hello and goodbye. Think of aloha as an abbreviation. Akahai: meaning kindness Lokahi: meaning unity Olu’Olu’: meaning agreeableness Ha’aha’a: meaning humility Ahonui: meaning patience This is something we all need to live by, seriously, we all should

the dropped sub-plot was that lilo hated tourists, which is why she goes around taking pictures of them like they were attractions instead of people; like how they took photos of locals

similarly there was a deleted scene where she scares tourists off of a beach by sounding a false tsunami siren to watch them run screaming deeper in the lore that kid thats a prick to her, mertyle, is the daughter of the person who runs the megamart and crushed a lot of other local businesses- when they have to do a hula to tell a story mertyle actually uses it to describe the low prices, where lilo does a hula about a traditional creation myth that was important to her mother. you may notice both lilo and nani are on first name basis with both the coffee shop owner and the fruitseller, there is big disparity between the locals and foreign interest businesses relegating them to just be tourist industry

friendly reminder that lilo & stitch is indisputably the best disney film

“oh, she’s here!”

this whole scene in White’s head reminded me of a grown woman playing with dolls in her basement. not that there’s anything wrong with it (unless you play with the lifeless bodies of your family members)

You ever realize all the millennial energy that Jessie, James, and Meowth give off? Case in point…

they’re 25 years old (Meowth is probably a young adult in pokémon years) who

are frequently broke and can barely afford basic living expenses

often waste money on stupid shit they don’t really need

but will always sacrifice funds for their friends

Jessie has many ambitions but lacks the money, skills, and resources to make them happen

James rejected the lifestyle and marital expectations of his parents in the pursuit of his own freedom

Meowth wasted his energy to learn a skill that didn’t lead to the life of happiness he expected

they work for a “company” led by a dismissive boss, fully expecting to be promoted for their hard work

frequently take on part-time jobs (which they’re very good at) to support their long-term career goals

James collects trinkets that are ultimately useless besides sentimental value

Jessie partakes in hobbies/competitions that are typically outside her age group for the fun of it

Meowth craves affection to the point that he projects fantasies onto his boss 

Wobbuffet is a one trick pony, but does that trick very well

are often depicted as having horrible book smarts, but carry a lot of emotional intelligence 

will jump at the prospect of free food

When we were kids, we all wanted to be like Ash Ketchum. 

But we all grew up to be Team Rocket.
