Some blog on the internet

Yo, welcome to my blog. Here I blog about various stuff, including Megaten, Sonic, Space Channel 5, Animal Crossing, Dangitronpaul, Ace Attorney, etc

Boredom and an interest in Photoshop's timeline animations feature convinced me to try and replicate DR1's intro animations. I chose Mahiru for this since she's my second favorite DR2 character! Oh, and I suppose this is also for anyone with a cast switch AU.

When it comes to children’s animation creating multimillion dollar franchises in worlds of infinite imagination, surely gender equality should be a cert? Discuss.

PASS:

The Incredibles, Brave, Toy Story 3, A Bug’s Life

FAIL:

Up, WALL-E, Ratatouille, Finding Nemo, Monsters, Inc., Monsters University, Toy Story and Toy Story 2, Cars and Cars 2.

I love Pixar and this is upsetting but important to realize. I want them to do better!

Agreed with all of the above, though I make a tiny exception for Ratatouille since the fact that the one female character is the only female character in the plot is actually a part of her story and what makes her tick (like, they acknowledge and document a gender inequality issue that is present in society at the time the film was made and I feel that gives them a bit of respect/leeway on this), and honestly that movie is so perfect I wouldn’t want to change anything about the story.  (The waiter, pest control man, Anton Ego and any of the ratties could have been a different gender without it changing the story though I guess).

The Bechdel test is pretty dumb once you start looking into movies that pass and fail it from a critical standpoint. Example: “Splice” passes, but “Pacific Rim” doesn’t.

The idea that the Bechdel test is considered a legitimate measure for gender representation is baffling to me. The fact that people use a test to measure representation through statistics instead of seeking examples of good characters and stories only encourages the use of focus groups when you actually think about it.

We’re more worried about how things add up than we are about doing any damn good in the media. We apply these binary ideas of “good” and “bad,” converting concepts into numbers, and plugging in all the zeroes and ones as if there’s some kind of formula out there that will mass produce quality. But that isn’t how it works. Thought, effort, innovation, creativity, hard work, blood, sweat, tears, trial, and error… All of that and more makes quality.

I’d rather there be one great female character in a sausage fest film than I would a bunch of 2-dimensional walking boobs that only serve to tip the scales. Yes, representation matters, and there should be more female characters. But using the Bechdel test to determine whether that representation is “good” or not is asinine.

my theory about dr:another episode is that the whole game happened between dr1 and sdr2 timeline cause of that pic with ko in it

also that he can probably still move his hands, which is probably happened before the sdr2 cast got transported into jabberwock island

[mightytakiastm]

It was actually confirmed from the start that it's between DR1 and SDR2 chronologically

i tried this and it didn’t work  ._.

My hair looks more naturally like Theresa’s than my wig does…

And I really WISH I could wear it naturally with my cosplay. But obviously my hair is not purple.

I don’t want to dye my hair (and I’m pretty sure my parents wouldn’t allow me to do it), but I’d like a way to turn it purple for when I’m wearing my cosplay.

Is there any kind of temporary dye out there, that I could easily put on but looks just like permanent dye? My hair is dark brown, and I understand some people have to bleach it to get it a certain color they want, but I’m going for a dark-purple.

I don’t want to use that spray-on dye they sell at every Party City, that stuff looks like a mess and probably won’t get every inch of my hair. But I wouldn’t mind a dye that washed off just as easily (or at least in a certain amount of days)

So anybody know of a type of dye I’m looking for?

[mightytakiastm]

While I don't know this "Theresa" character, I do think you'd make a pretty good Maya Fey for that it's worth
