I wonder if that disastrous original script for the Holes movie, which was written by the guy who wrote Donnie Darko, is still in circulation on the internet. It was insane.

Like the landscape was all barren not because of a curse but because there’d been a nuclear apocalypse and subsequent plague, and Stanley went to prison camp not because he stole a pair of shoes but because he mercy-killed his own plague-riddled sister. And Pendanski sneaks the boys out to take them to a truckstop bar and buys them prostitutes. And it’s revealed at the end that the conspiracy of the camp is that they’re digging for, not buried treasure, but old nuclear warheads. And there’s a running theme about how “you can’t bury the past.”

I mean the scope and intensity of the changes made to make it more “adult” were pretty clever, but so unnecessary. The fairy tale-esque whimsy was so integral to the story and such a part of its charm that making it darker kind of defeated the entire purpose

I can only imagine the Nickelodeon execs reading this script in open-mouthed horror, and then a long silence before they went “well what if we just got the guy who wrote the book to write it”

So I was looking at a few of these old posts and started to wonder if anyone has done this but with Gen Z

-

—- (Gen) Z:I want to die.

Alien:NO! Are you okay? Are you hurt? Do you need help?

Z:mental help? Yes.

Alien:where do we recieve this? What is it?

-

—- Z:*watches a ship explode* Same

Alien:What? I don’t understand.

-

—- Z:*looks into space* Wow… that’s as black and dull as my soul right now.

Alien:The soles of your shoes are white???

-

——Z:*sees alien* DON’T LAY YOUR EGGS IN ME?

alien:Why would—???

-

—-Z:Wow. This looks like that one planet from Star Wars.

Alien:You guys had a space war? When?

-

——Z:*sees a dead body* me on the inside

Alien:Yes, you do have a skeleton. Why are you pointing that out?

-

——Alien:The vault is empty!

Z:YEET! *throws a wrench*

-

—-Human:*having a mental breakdown*

Alien:What… What is this? I thought humans could function on a daily basis.

-

—-Gen Z:Some*breaks down door* BODY ONCE TOLD ME

Whats this in reference to?

[fandomxgodess]

he basically said that everyone NEEDS both a father and a mother. some people pointed out that going without one is totally fine, especially in situations where the parents are same sex. At first, he stuck by his comment, but I’m mglad he took the time to learn about why it was a little insensitive

really weird to think that samus aran, the woman who was raised by alien birds and has had to fight multiple parasitic alien clones of herself, probably has had the most normal life out of all the major nintendo protagonists  

[skarchomp]

Mario: *teams up with a baby version of himself to fight alien mushroom people*

Link: *gets transformed into a wolf by traveling between different dimensions due to shadow magic*

Kirby: *has a rogues gallery consisting of everything from a magician cartoon mouse to reality-warping god machines that live in space*

Samus Aran: *goes to an alien planet, beats up some jerks, collects her paycheck, goes home and reheats some leftover ravioli and passes out in front of the tv*

[thestuffedalligator]

The only reason Samus wears the Zero Suit for Smash Bros is so nobody knows her real off-mission wardrobe is an oversized t-shirt with an unidentifiable stain near the collar and a pair of shorts with the word “JUICY” written in an alien language written across the butt

[strangely-normal]

It's somehow comforting to think that when she's done kicking the shit out of criminals and/or saving the galaxy, Samus Aran, of all people, is one of the most mundane and human protagonists Nintendo has created.

I get the concept of embracing ugliness but I think in practice it’s a terrible idea

[sunfortune]

like it doesn’t subvert the beauty standards that already tell you, you are. it still forces a label on you. you’re either pretty or you’re ugly. like I don’t wanna be either of those things. I just want to be allowed to exist.

and like telling 15 year olds to accept and embrace that theyre ugly instead of educating them that the reason they think that is not because they are, But because of the artificial standards created subliminally and explicitly by movies, makeup companies, and magazines

and especially for young woc, like so many young girls think they’re ugly because they don’t have pale skin, they’re not skinny, they have big brows, big noses, strong features, etc

To tell them “yeah you Are ugly, embrace that” is 😬 like instead of undermining those standards and just letting them Live without feeling like they need to change, it reinforces them
