I have thoughts, and I need to share.
Beast(2022). The movie.
There will be spoilers, you have been warned!
The opening : a bunch of HUMANS, with VEHICLES cannot sneek up on a pride of lions.
The chill lions : two grown lions greeting and playing with the human that raised them is something that totally happens, I've seen it a dozen times. However, I have doubts that they would have been that chill while being that close to the cubs. I have even more doubt about having multiple foreign humans approaching the pride.
The village : Cats in general have a better memory the people think they do. Tiger are most well known for holding grudges and remembering spacific people, but all cats have that potential. That being said I find it hard to believe a single lion would attack a whole village looking for the potchers, mind you that village has been there for years, and the lion would have known that. Could it happen? Sure! Was it believable in the context of the movie? No.
Things in the vehicle : I have no real life frame of reference for this part, I've never been to Africa. However, why the everloving fuck do you not have more then a trank gun? Why is your first aid so small? You mean to tell me that I, a cosplayer, have a med kit twice the size of what you take TO THE AFRICAN BUSH?!?!
Tranck shot : Tranks not working right, especially with large wild animals, is to be expected. Why does the movie not take five seconds to explain that. The lion wasn't giant compared to the others, and didn't look all that great to begin with. Why did the lion act slugish almost immediately after being shot, which isn't how it works, and then suddenly act like nothing happened a few minutes later? Do you know NOTHING about the big ass cat in your movie?
Anti Poacher : I don't like poachers. I have absolutely zero simpathy for anyone who harms an animal. However, the set up of the white guy being an anti was shit. I didn't believe for a second that anyone was an anti till the poachers literally said it. THAT would have been a cool conversation. Leave visual hints, a real weapon in his truck, side eyes whenever poachers come up in conversation. Something. Anything more then what was done. Why the fuck did white guy(I can't remember anyones name) not say something when the poachers showed up? Why didn't the poacher shot him?
Times Idris would have died because lions are kings for a fucking reason : On first sight. Broke the window. On top the truck. Under the truck. When the poachers showed up. When he got in the tree. In the water. The second he thought he was going to OUTRUN a fucking LION. The second he thought he was going to FIGHT a fucking LION. I'm sure I missed some, but this pissed me off most.
Three male lions : The second a foreign lion is spotted by a pride, shit goes down. The two males, being raised by a human, most likely would have automatically attacked the lion going after another human. The whole ass pride is in ear shoot, why the shit would they just sit around and do nothing? And if they didn't see a reason to fight when the foreign lion showedup, why did they bother to help at all?
-
I'm sure I'm missing things that bothered me but whatever. Can we just, not make movies where the animals don't behave like they actually would? Please? There have been big cats that lose their shit. There have been animals that kill, just for fun. But a human, especially without a weapon, is not a challenge to a murder kitty.
Several years ago I fell in love with Tales of Zestiria the X. I'm rewatching the anime now and I've watched all the playthroughs.
However because of someone in my life at the time, I believed that I'd never have the opertunity to make the Mikleo cosplay that I have quite literally dreamed about.
Fast forward to today. I started working on my Mikleo cosplay. The pattern for the pants is complete, the tunic is next.
I don't know when it'll be finished, but I already love it.
Mom: what are you listening to?
Me: music.
Mom: what kind of music?
Me: falling in reverse.
Mom: you listened to that when you were a teen.
Me: and?
Mom: you listen to same thing for decades?
Me: I just keep adding. Not my fault Ronnie's awesome.
Mom: what else do you listen to?
Me: Taemin.
Mom: *gives up and walks away*
Mom: I'm going to bed.
Me: K, night mom.
Mom: *comes back out ten minutes later* watching anime again?
Me:*offended* not anime. This is better, its Howl's Moving Castle.
Mom:*watches Howl save Sophie from assholes* He looks familiar.
Me: I hope so I cosplay him all the time.
Mom: I thought you were cosplaying a girl.
Me: You think everything I cosplay is a girl. I have ONE cosplay that is a girl, and technically she's a god and can change her gender on command.
Me: yay I finished a cosplay. Now I can work on this cosplay I've been wanted to work on for three years!
My brain: New cosplay.
Me: But I wanna-
My brain: New cosplay!
Me: Can't it wait?
My brain: NEW COSPLAY!
