ACOTAR and TOG

Well that’s what I intended to be but then Marvel and RWBY and Zelda and DOTA: Dragon's Blood happened and other stuff too so this just turned into a multi fandom hub pls help

“plutarch seems genuinely happy, saying he's going to be able to edit the clips together into some fine propos. he sighs when he mentions the tools that were abolished and incapacitated in the past, ones deemed fated to destroy humanity because of their ability to replicate any scenario using any person. ‘and in mere seconds!’ he snaps his fingers to emphasize their speed. ‘i guess it was the right thing to do, given our natures. we almost wiped ourselves out even without them, so you can imagine. but oh, the possibilities!’”

WACK GENERATIVE AI AGAIN FOR ME, SUZANNE!

The thing I've never understood about the idea of adapting Avatar: The Last Airbender into a live-action TV show is that the idea inherently self-contradictory.

Animated properties get adapted into live action because the entertainment industry doesn't respect the medium of animation. They'll mine it for ideas, sure, but the whole idea with live-action adaptations is the veneer of prestige. Making the property more "respectable".

And as a parallel, most animation to live action adaptation is also TV to Film adaptation. Because TV has also been held to be less prestigious than Film by the entertainment industry. It's only in the past decade or so has TV earned a reputation for prestige in itself.

So adapting Avatar from animated series to live-action film makes sense in the language of Hollywood. The two changes in medium are a bump upwards in their eyes. "We made these changes because there has to be changes made from TV to Film."

But adapting Avatar from animated series to live-action series rings much more hollow.

Because to justify the adaptation, they're praising the original show, while at the same time the only reason the adaptation exists is because they're denigrating the show for being animation.

They're speaking out of both sides of their mouth.

Random Thoughts Post-HOFAS (Spoilers)

So, I, like an idiot, immediately got attached to Danika when I read HOEAB. She was my fav and then immediately DIED and was the subject of a murder-mystery. It’s fine, I’ll just get over my grief real quick (this is a lie, I miss her everyday).

Well guess what my dumbass did almost immediately upon reading those first few chapters of HOFAS: Got attached to the innocent, headstrong Sigrid. ONLY TO HAVE HER DIE EARLY ON. Why do I always pick the characters that are destined to be killed as my favorites? Really need some closure on her storyline too, cuz we don’t see her again after she runs from Ithan when he becomes Prime. She was such an interesting character to me, new to the world, and curious but principled. Like a kid in an adult body. Made me sad to see her manipulated and used at every turn after being resurrected. I really hope she gets a second chance and isn’t relegated to being an evil reaper creature.

Anyways, I liked the book.

what do you mean everyone goes back to their separate districts and deals with the trauma of the war on their own? did you miss the part where johanna and annie move in together to raise her and finnick's kid next door to katniss and peeta? or haymitch and effie getting married and taking katniss and peeta in because they're literally 17? everlark's kids calling them grandma and grandpa?? beetee being the weird uncle??? are y'all sure you're reading this right??? are we reading the same book????

Boycott Disney. Boycott McDonald's. Boycott Starbucks. "Oh but it won't work, it won't do anything" Yes it will. Boycotts have worked before and they will again. Think of the Montgomery bus boycotts. Think about American women boycotting imported British goods during the revolution.

Why do you think popular media is so quick to discount boycotts as ineffective? Could it possibly be because they work? Could it be because major corporations understand that they work and are scared? Could it be because boycotts have historically been utilized by marginalized groups to assert their views and fight for change within a conflict in which they have no power?

Do not have give in to the apathetic nihilism of "nothing I do matters, so why bother?" That is exactly what oppressors count on. Be critical of the media you consume. Ask questions. Look to history. Boycott.

Miguel wasn’t my favorite character in ATSV, but my friend said “draw him like the fallen angel” and I said “consider it done”

Still speechless by this masterpiece

Last one was right before going to the cinema, the hype was hugeee

Hollywood has to pay writers and artists more because you do not get movies like Spiderverse without an intense amount of skill, love, and dedication, and that DEMANDS to be compensated so much more than 'fairly'. Holy shit what a fucking movie. On every god damn level. It executed on every level so far beyond my expectations. The animation, the design, the soundtrack, the sound design, the writing-- THE FUCKING WRITING-- the acting, the dialogue, the pacing, the STORY OH MY GOD. Me and my cousin were and still are screaming about it. We're going again as soon as we can gather up some nerds to take with us. Stunning. Phenomenal. 1000/10 only one note:

PAY ARTISTS MORE ALL OF THEM. WRITERS, MUSICIANS, SOUND TECHS, DESIGNERS, BACKGROUND ARTISTS, CHARACTER ARTISTS, ALL OF THEM.

spider-man : across the spider-verse is the most visually stunning thing i have ever seen in my life. genuinely like, the best looking film i’ve ever seen. aside from the plot and the characters (all of which were great, solid buildup for a banger conclusion) seeing all that artistic talent on screen was fucking insane. my mind was exploding every three minutes. that art book is going to go HARRDDD.

Can we persuade Sarah J. Maas to make acotar an animated series just like Castlevania and Blood of Zeus? Because, well, I'm in love...

Let me introduce you to ...

Alucard Adrian Ţepeş, son of Vlad Dracula Ţepeş, The sleeping soldier

Apollo, God of Sun (reminds me of Lucien...). I would die for Apollo if he asked me to.🤗😍

Hermes, Messenger of the Gods

And one with both of them...

And some pictures of ladies in their shows so you can see what we could have instead of being anxious about the casting...

Look at them and I hope you agree with me... (And they are so many more hotties in their shows😫). Imagine your favourite characters like this. It would be amazing. Based only on the books without any problem 😉
