How cool is this?!

Here’s a link to a news article and some videos about production (posted before the film was released)

Their Moana is very talented, and their Maui is a local newscaster whose daughters made him audition!

Rachel House still voices Grandma Tala, Temuera Morrison still voices the Chief, and Jemaine Clement still voices Tamatoa.

Rob Ruha and Jemaine Clement translated and rearranged the music so that the songs still worked while sung in a different language, which is super impressive.

Also: Air New Zealand will feature the Maori version on their in flight entertainment starting in November!

Also, help support the Sami fun of Frozen 2. For anyone interested in the protection and preservation of indigenous languages, that too is a must to check out.

People who are old enough to remember ad free YouTube, FB, Twitter and Instagram believing that capitalism drives innovation are fucking hilarious.

Like, all of those platforms were still profitable...massively profitable before they had targeted ads on your feed and unskippable ads before videos. They didn’t need to bring them in. They weren’t going to go under, their CEOs weren’t living in the backseats of their cars, they were living in mansions already. They just wanted more money.

Greed was the only reason. Capitalism is the reason they made their platforms and the user experience worse. That’s it.

just watch it

I’ve already watched this 3xs! Love it!

Good news that we deserve 😌

[bagheadautist]

for people who can’t watch the video: THE AMYGDALA CHANGES TRADITIONALLY FOUND IN MOTHERS SHOW UP IN ALL PRIMARY CAREGIVERS REGARDLESS OF SEX

Changes in this part of the brain were previously used to previously used to argue that women are the ideal primary caretakers of children in all cases. And apparently, it’s false. The reason they found these changes in women was that women were already the primary caretaker in almost all cases, not because there’s something inherent to women that makes them better parents.

this is big news for SAHF and single dads!

[hundondestiny]

it’s also another example as to why same-gender couples and trans parents are capable of fully loving and caring for children, even though they are frequently barred from doing so under government and private guidelines in many places.

So.... is no one going to mention the whole ‘Reginald is a lizard person’ side plot thrown in there?? I’ve literally seen ZERO posts about it...??

exactly 1 minute ago i had absolutely no idea what the plants sesame seeds and peanuts came from look like and i am shocked and surprised

[elodieunderglass]

for some reason every time I see pineapples growing I laugh out loud. Like, the punchline is it’s a pineapple!!!!!!!!! it’s a pineapple

[kawuli]

An Interesting Fact About Peanuts, while we’re on the topic of food-plants:

Peanuts-you-eat grow underground, but they are NOT part of the peanut plant’s roots. Peanut plants are ambitious little fuckers and plant their seeds themselves. They flower like any perfectly reasonable legume, but once the flowers have been pollinated the plants do something called “pegging” (no really), in which they drill the stems where the flowers used to be into the ground. And that’s where the peanuts you eat form. Like so:

I’m going to pull myself together to endorse this Extremely Interesting Fact, but it’s going to be a real struggle

[wtfzodiacsigns]

The signs as I know them

Aries:

Never awkward. not afraid to give a compliment. annoyed by insecure people. Can honestly be a bully to those they don’t understand or get. Big hearts, you just have to get deep enough in their world for them to show you. a talented sign.

Taurus:

Usually funny because they’ve dealt with some sort of pain. Good performers. Lazy if unmotivated or stuck/sad. Prone to random temper tantrums or angry outbursts. Good food is an outlet for them because it makes them feel whole. Generous with their money for those they love.

Gemini:

Their secret weapon is communication. There isn’t a sign with more wit and personality in their words. Will act out if they aren’t getting attention from the right people. Enticing. Quick to make quick friends. cry babies.. The life of the party or debbie downer of the century.
