Favorite movies of the 2010s?

hm! incheresting...

What We Do In The Shadows (2014) - A mockumentary about vampires living in NZ created by Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi. This is a movie you could watch over and over again without ever getting tired of it. You also notice new things each time. The characters are delightful, especially Viago (played by Taika) and Stu (a literal tech man who showed up to set with ZERO acting experience, not even knowing he was going to act in the film, and as told to just play himself). The movie is mostly improv. It is in the same universe as the WWDITS TV show but the tone and humor aren’t quite the same - I prefer the film. 

Boy Meets Girl (2014) - A touching story about a trans woman living in the rural south who explores her sexuality with a woman after a lifetime of only dating men. While Ricky’s friends, family, and community support her, there is some transphobia and there is discussion of her struggles with mental health. That said, it is a deeply healing piece of media and ends happily. The lead actress, Michelle Hendley, is a trans woman who had no prior acting experience. She brings a very real, very authentic performance. 

Megamind (2011) - A lot of people make posts on this website like “I wish there was a movie where-” and Megamind covers a huge chunk of those. It flips the villain/hero dynamic, is very bisexual, and features the coolest boots you have ever seen.

Lovebirds (2011) - An adorable romcom featuring Rhys Darby. After his girlfriend dumps him, he discovers a wounded duck and decides to nurse it back to health. He seeks out the help of an expert at the aviary, and they fall in love. Most of the movie is Rhys carrying around this little duck in a bag like a lapdog. The entire soundtrack is Queen. There’s a sequence where he dresses up as an astronaut. There’s a lot of romcom movies, I feel, that Suck. Like... they don’t really land the romance OR the comedy, but this one does. It completely knocks it out of the park. 

Ghost Shark (2013) - It’s my favorite Bad Movie after The Room (2003). Gather round, friends, and watch a spectral shark materialize in the middle of a slip-n-slide.

also ooo yeah the girls struggling to take care of their wings in Amphibia- the Plantars would be willing to help, and I’d imagine it would be a big moment for Anne to allow Sprig to help her clean or groom them. Sasha could easily get her wings hurt training with Grime’s army.

100% especially Sprig who wants to know everything about how to take care of Anne's wings, how it feels to fly, and everything inbetween. i kinda wanna draw Anne and Sprig and the first time anne lets him touch her wings cause she trusts her newfound brother enough :D

and ohhohoh sasha definitely bangs up her wings a couple times >:3

What was your first internet fandom/subculture?

Oh gosh, if we're going to talk about my first fandom, then we have to go aaall the way back to 2004, when I first discovered fanfiction and I barely even knew what the word fandom meant :3

I hadn't even finished middle school yet, and I remember being absolutely crazy about this one anime, Ranma 1/2 (a wonderfully ridiculous train wreck full of weirdos, and I loved it precisely because of that 🤣). This somehow led me to spend some time on the internet, as I looked for pictures and stuff, and... let's just say that I found a lot more than that :P

I'll always look back on those days fondly, you know - that was the fandom I wrote my very first fic for (in Italian, that is), and it was also when I first realized that there was an entire community out there, full of people who enjoyed their favourite characters and stories in the exact same way I did, and shared that love with each other. People who welcomed me, and showed me a kindness I had hardly ever experienced in the real world, and I will always be grateful to them for that 💖 You know, when I posted my first fanfic ever... gosh, I won't say that I still remember the first comment I got, word for word, because I don't, but that feeling... the way my heart was hammering in my chest, reading those kind words, the sheer happiness I felt knowing that someone had read my little story and actually liked it...!! Well, now that is something that I'll never forget. And it still feels the same these days 💖

Let me just say your post about Q damaged my soul and I don't have friends that overlap star trek and that reference so I just have to experience it myself. I'll be thinking about it until I die. Ty

Blame its true author, @cipher-fresh

Do the calamity powers impact the wings in any way?

mm probably not hahah at most theyd just get glowy feathers like how their hair glows :3

[toasty-owl-arts]

wing AU?👀

dude im just,,,

such a sucker for wing aus

the drama, the potential for intimacy hhhholy shit dude

anyway yea amphibia wing au!! annes a greater racket tailed drongo, marcys a common kingfisher, and sashas an eastern marsh harrier

annes mom is a little egret, and her dad in a blue gold macaw

species isnt passed down via genetics (because im lazy and i dont want to) so its more based on location

amphibians dont have wings, its a human thing, so the trio are still the odd ones out among everyone there :3

Favorite movie of the 80s?

This is so unfair. The year 1982 alone had Tron, The Thing, and The Last Unicorn - you want me to choose one from a whole decade???

(It’s The Thing. I’m abnormal about that film.)
