Obligatory nerd-blogging

GUSTAVE Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

[the-fanaddict]

watching the defunctland video makes me wonder why Disney hasn't used something like character.ai or LLMs in general to create more personalized responses for their anamatronics

Together we map the world integrated with Where’s Hiccup is actually so inspired John Powell cooked right there

never realized how similar those two sounded

[zeldadeservesabreak]

Link and Zelda canonically visited Eventide Island between games and Link was so emotionally scarred from the experience in Breath of the Wild he was worried Zelda’s clothes were going to disappear… so he covers his eyes before landing on the shore out of respect for her dignity.

And yes, Zelda, I agree! He could’ve mentioned that sooner! LOL

hey wdym live action httyd doesn't have dragon nip (it's just dandelions that make them sneeze)

let the dragons have their weed it's 2025

[arrownoodle]

Might sound nitpicky but those wings ARE NOT those of an aerodynamic predator (compared to the OG on the second pic)

[autumndragon]

i love the idea that viggo's issue is that he's always overestimating the dragon riders and that's why he loses. other antagonists always underestimate them, they don't put in all the necessary precautions, which allows the riders to slip through, always throwing parties and gloating before the dragon is in the cage. but viggo?

my man takes so many precautions, his entire island is a war base, and yet, and YET the dragon riders got in by dyeing snotlout's hair blonde, giving him gucci boots and naming him sir ulgertorpe, SIR ULGERTORPE. viggo got catfished by snotlout with blonde hair. he's overestimating them so bad that the IDEA of them "just walking in" doesn't even come to mind. he's ready for fire and death to fall from the sky but a one-legged boy pulling a fast one on him breaks his fancy little english brain.

Hiccup is such a dramatic person like hey DAD remember how you said I need to kill like a singular dragon to be cool well what if I killed the biggest fuck off mountain sized dragon and ended a three hundred year war that will stop about 76% of your current problems AND get permenant life insurance in the form of an extremely angry night fury. What if huh??? What if?????

[unwastelandunbaby]

my unimportant tv and movie pet peeve is when there’s a prop picture that absolutely no one put effort into making look in-universe

[unwastelandunbaby]

One example that always comes to mind is this locket from the hunger games. it’s supposed to be a heartfelt moment but the only thing I can think about whenever I see it is the fact that for some reason they just photoshopped these production stills from the first movie. now why would Peeta use pictures of Katniss’s loved ones from the reaping for her locket 😭

it’s so distracting. to me

[juliasmonster]

I don't think I can find it but there's one episode of Gossip Girl where characters are in an argument in one of their living room's and behind the couch is a row of pictures in frames. In one the frames is a picture of the character wearing the exact same thing as she's wearing IN THE SCENE HAPPENING RIGHT THEN down to her hair and makeup and everything. Truly baffling.

I wish live action toothless at least looked more like live action bulbasaur

[stormbound58]

Is it just me or did I saw a Rumblehorn or a Snufflefang on the trailer during this scene?

[TRAILER SPOILER AHEAD]

[the-fanaddict]

i think my main problem is that Jay Baruchel Hiccup was so iconic (I mean, they never recasted him for anything else) that I’m instantly thrown off the moment I hear him in the trailer

That and toothless looks weirdly crusty

I’m only here for the genuinely good set design and gerad butler as stoick and the soundtrack

[loving-parasite-moved]

Huge fan of when my speech patterns rub off on people enjoy when thay happens

you grow a beautiful tree and then balk at its fruits?

[a-caterpillars-world]

Something I find that people are missing when comparing Minecraft Story Mode to the Minecraft movie trailer is that, while MSM absolutely has its writing problems, compared to the Minecraft movie there's a level of sincerity that puts it well above. Where the Minecraft movie grimaces at itself and refuses to actually care about Minecraft as a game, MCSM treats the concept of "living in a Minecraft world" about as seriously as it can. Things like poofing into a pile of inventory when you die seems silly to us, as outsiders looking in, but to the characters who have been living under these rules their whole lives, they might as well be looking at a corpse. Meanwhile, it doesn't happen in the teaser trailer, but I'd bet anything that Minecraft death and item drops will be the subject of a quippy "well THAT just happened (⊙_⊙;)" joke and nothing more. If you can't at least take yourself seriously while exploring what life would be like under Minecraft rules, then you should not be making a movie about it.
