I hope we can all agree that attempts to “make” bugs cute by twisting them into caricatures of the human form are usually terribly misguided, but those sure look like some upstanding, trustworthy fellas

It’s so misguided and I HATED IT SO MUCH AS A CHILD that now I love it and I keep thinking of them as like awful goblin-things “symbolizing” insects which need a name like Bugboos or Bugwumps or something

Imagine Bugwumps trying to blend in with insects. Like one way bigger than a bee next to a hive, unconvincingly making bee noises and you have to pretend not to notice it as you walk past. Or one in a line of army ants on a tree. Or you get up at night and see a roach on the kitchen floor, but when you go to kill/capture it out of the corner of your eye a Bugwump skitters under your sink.

i know ive blogged abt this before but does anyone else remember the study on the children w/ a broken furby who like. removed its skin and cut it into as many pieces as those who were present for the ceremony to be taken far away and buried as a means of appeasing it?? & they like?? defined the skin as the ghost and the rest as the goblin and both were angry that the children had killed it??????????????? please

CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON

She gives him her pack, and he doesn’t… really… no. That’s really, that’s K2. Like, he doesn’t, y’know— “Go get the bags, droid.” “No. I’d rather not. That’s not my thing.” —Alan Tudyk at the Rogue One Panel at Star Wars Celebration 2016

Uhh… I love Sigourney Weaver, but Ripley had an ending. Alien 3. She jumps into a vat of molten metal. I mean, if that’s not an “ending”, I don’t know what is…

You know, I wondered about that too…

Alien 3 was a good movie in my humble opinion, but they started to sweep it completely under the carpet when talking about Alien 5.

Alien 3 was really...not good (it’s good until Tywin Lannister dies) but it’s odd to act like they’ve never tried to give her an ending before. All 4 movies ‘end’, far more than modern serial-esque genre films.
