Opinion on my fav movie, Tangled?
Howdy, you, my friend, my good buddy, my pal, are objectively correct. Tangled is immaculate. I haven't seen it since the last time I got sick (we don't talk about it, I have strange ways of coping), but I remember it all.
Okay, so, got Rapunzel, you know she's great. She's full of life, she's awesome, and she's been going ham since the first scene. And she's stuck in a tower, classic her. Then Mother Gothel shows up, and she's I'm gonna say it, looking *fine* but she's evil, so we must stay focused.
After Rapunzel and Mother Gothel talk about how it's Rapunzel's birthday in three days, or possibly tomorrow, we get Flynn Ryder!!!! I love him, he's the best, top tier. And also the Stabbington brothers I think, who suck. But anyways so stuff happens, Flynn shows up inside Rapunzel's tower and gets a cast iron skillet to the face, which is peak comedy with what comes next.
After some hilarity, getting to know each other and a severe psychological breakdown from Rapunzel, her and Flynn head over to The Ugly Duckling (I think). Where we meet a whole bunch of top tier evil folks who I love. And we get the song "I Have A Dream" I believe in The Ugly Duckling. And then chase scenes, and it's just such a good movie.
I think the reason why that movie was so good was because of how they did Rapunzel, because they could have really easily made her a dumb princess, but they made her intelligent while still making it seem like she knew very little of the real world, which is a delicate balance. I love Tangled, it's one of my top three favorite Disney movies.
Also, thank you for asking, I really enjoy talking about movies other people like.
Anyways, thanks for reading if you did, if you didn't, life goes on. Toodles, doodles.
A KINDRED SPIRIT LET'S GOOOOOO You are CORRECT and ought say it louder :DD
OH- oh and- If you've happened to have seen the tangled tv series, how about your thoughts on how they butchered handled Rapunzel's character in that? Music is unreasonably good, Varian is best boy, and we deserved that VAT7K spin-off but Disney's too much of a COWARD to give the people what they want >:[
My opinions are mixed about it. I LOVE IT, but at the same time, the plot feels... weird? at times?
And that Rapunzel? That is not my girl. I don't know who that is, but they are a changeling, doppleganger, or imposter among us, because they somehow made her more irritating than Charlie is at her stubbornest o_o
I'm also a huge fan of Hazbin Hotel, so I do adore Charlie, but MY GIRL- (gestures to "speedrun to redemption") CRITICAL THINKING, PLEASE-
It just feels like they made Punzie very... flat as a character? And it seemed like they were weirdly pushing Cassunzel as a ship instead of New Dream???
It felt like the story wasn't about Rapunzel despite her being the title character, which, it's absolutely alright to have different plots going on, but theoretically the main story should be about the main character, right...?
idk, I have FEELINGS about her characterization ._. justice for my baby girlll
Howdy. I'm gonna be honest, I've never watched it.
I like the songs, specifically "Ready as I'll ever be" I think, and I like the art style they used, but I have no clue beyond that. I know almost nothing about it, I didn't even remember it existed until you brought it up.
I think sequel media of all kinds is bound to fail, and I find it hard to go into a sequel movie or show without high expectations even though I know it's going to be bad. But sometimes things are good, this doesn't seem like one of those times, but a guy can dream.
Anyways, thanks for reading if you did, if you didn't, life goes on. Toodles, doodles.
Howdy. I'm trying something different, I'm gonna post some art that is mine. I repeat, my art.
You wanna repost? Sure. I don't care, just credit me. Also, don't do anything weird with it like try to say it's yours, I don't know.
Some recent traditional, all mediocre, but I think they're pretty fun.
My best piece, in my opinion, I've never liked an art piece as much as this one, it was a while ago that I made it, though. Also it was done digitally.
Here's just a fun comic I made for a newspaper once, also digital, not the best but I thought it was silly.
I'm serious, please just be cool, guys. I'm not the type to normally show off art, so let's all be cool.

Calvin's parents decide to take a Hawai'ian vacation. They're not sure how much of it their son will tolerate but they would like to do at least a few things that involve sandy beaches and scenic cycling routes. They are therefore pleased when Calvin seems to make friends with a local girl about his own age and the two of them run off to play
Now, from Calvin's point of view what has happened is that he spotted actual aliens, and starts trying to bring this to the attention if the adults. But the tourists are like, "that's nice, go shoot 'em with your water gun, have a good time," and the locals are like, "yeah, they're an older couple who decided to retire here. Happens all the time." Eventually, it becomes clear that Spaceman Spiff is going to have to handle it himself.
From Lilo's point of view, Jumba and Pleakley are her gay uncles, do you mind? Calvin does mind, and so the two of them spend the rest of the afternoon terrorizing Kaua'i in the effort to destroy one another while the aliens alternate between bailing them out of trouble and attempting to escape.
Hobbes and Stitch, meanwhile, are calmly playing checkers and drinking non-alcoholic margaritas.
OP I’m sorry but the last sentence painted SUCH a vivid picture in my mind I had to draw it immediately.
I love how Stitch looks more like a stuffed animal then Hobbes does.
This is perfect.
Howdy, I'm sorry, Calvin and Hobbes was such a huge part of my childhood, and this is simply too cute for me to not repost. I love everyone who added to this before me.
Hope this brought someone else joy. Thanks for reading if you did, if you didn't, life goes on. Toodles, doodles.

Howdy, I don't know precisely what you want out of this, but I've read it, and I have thoughts.
Number one, I quite enjoy the premise. Does it make sense that Angel Dust wouldn't know at all about his predicament/physical characteristics? Maybe, I have no clue, so good on you.
Number two, I'm so sorry, but the grammar, spelling, and tenses were... Certainly something. Listen, I'm not going to say much else, but I think it could be an easier read if you paid a little extra attention to what tense you're going for. Like "he walks" or "he walked" consistently. Also, "It takes two to tango" is the phrase, just in case you didn't know. (I am willing to go more in depth for you if you'd like, hit me up and I will proof read it and the next chapters.)
Number three, very cute. I enjoyed Dice, the bear demon, he seemed lovely.
Number four, I applaud your proper use of indentation. We don't see it so much nowadays, but you, my good fellow, truly did it as it was meant to be done. Which, in case anyone reading doesn't know, is indenting before each new speaker. So it would be [indent]"Hi I'm Sally" and so on for the next person to talk and the next even if it is Sally again.
Anyways, thanks for reading if you did, if you didn't, life goes on. Toodles, doodles.
Howdy, here I am again. I would like to remind everyone that these are my personal opinions, so take everything you see as subjective and not necessarily entirely true. Anyways, I'm here to talk about my current obsession, Hazbin Hotel.
So, we've established that I don't like the Vees. I hate them, in fact, but have we established who I like? No. I love Husk. I love him so much, Keith David has my heart and has had it since Princess and the Frog. And I hope and pray that Huskerdust becomes real in the third season.
I think Angel Dust is a compelling and interesting character that brings up a fair amount of real issues when dealing with addiction and abusive relationships. And I think Husk is also an interesting adaptation of people who struggle with alcoholism.
My problem is the different ways people speak about Angel and Husk's addiction problems, in a lot of the things I've seen the average opinion is that Angel Dust is a less valid depiction of addiction, or he is less accepted as an imperfect representation of someone with an addiction. Am I saying this is the whole opinion of everyone? No. I'm saying of the things I've seen it seems to be the average opinion.
I can't speak from experience about being an addict, or anything, but I did know a few people who struggled with addiction and/or alcoholism, and I feel like both Husk and Angel are imperfect but reasonable portrayals of the issues they are supposed to have.
Anyways, thanks for reading if you did, if you didn't, life goes on. Remember that this is a personal page about my personal opinions. Toodles, doodles.
Howdy. Here I am again, this time I'm not talking about a movie. I'm talking about Hazbin Hotel, the Amazon Prime series, even though Amazon is the devil. More specifically "The Vees" from Hazbin Hotel, and boy do have opinions.
Let us not forget that "The Vees" are all awful, horrible, little whiny babies, as well. They're bad. And before somebody comes up with an "erm, actually, they're in hell, of course they're bad" I want you to walk outside and get struck by lightning. I know that they're in hell, and they're in hell for reasons, that doesn't make them good or enjoyable characters. And yes, I also know they're specifically the antagonists. I watched the whole show in one day less than a week ago, it's fresh in the brain cage.
I'm saying that "The Vees" are not interesting characters as they are shown, sure Vox has a sort of interesting backstory, but it really isn't that interesting. And his two personality traits are 1) Hating Alastor and 2) wanting to be *so so so so so so so* famous.
And Valentino's personality is: pimp. Nothing else. Just pimp. That's not an enjoyable thing to watch, and yeah, I know that "not everything has to be enjoyable to watch" but a compilation of Angel Dust being injured is just egregious and unnecessary. We got the picture about the whiny little dick hole after the first time he showed up, we didn't need a montage.
And Velvette is actually the most well rounded of them in my opinion, but she's still an awful person that I don't want to ever perceive. She has a personality besides hatred and violence, which is literally all she has going for her. And before someone says "oh, but Valentino also has a personality besides hatred and violence" you need to go outside and be struck by lightning.
The only other thing Valentino does besides spew hatred and commit acts of violence is what? Screw his boss? NOT THAT BIG OF A CHARACTER MOMENT THERE, BUCKO. And yeah, in the last episode some stuff happened and Velvette as well as Valentino helped save the day, I DO NOT CARE. IT WAS NOT SOME BIG REDEMPTION ARC, IT WAS A MOMENT OF BEING EVEN A LITTLE BIT USEFUL TO AVOID AN AWFUL DEATH.
Anyways, thanks for reading if you did, I guess. Toodles Doodles.
thoughts on rio?
The movie about the blue Macaw? Immaculate. Will-I-Am on the soundtrack is chef's kiss good. The story is actually incredibly upsetting, and saddens me if I'm honest. It's been a while since I've watched it, but I think I remember it enough.
Because the story is about Blu, a Spix's Macaw, one of only two left on the planet, or very few at least, and he lives with this lady who owns a bookstore. Then some guy shows up and is all like "Yo, Rio, I got you a little lady friend, y'all need to save your species." And stuff gets crazy after that.
In actuality, it's a story about the way humans have ravaged ecosystems and driven so many species to extinction, and how human intervention can sometimes make a problem worse. Or maybe it isn't, as I said, haven't watched it in two years, but I do love the birds.
My favorite character is Nigel. He's voiced by Germaine of Flight of the Concords fame. He's the evil white bird. He is simply too silly for words, which I love. He's a Sulfur-crested Cockatoo.
Honestly amazing film, gotta love it. It's great. Anyway, thanks for reading if you did, I guess. Toodles, doodles.
So, The first Blade film is great. The first one was golden, cinematic mastery, a wonderful movie. The second one was... Worse in my opinion.
!!SPOILERS FOR BLADE 2!!
They had a logical leap in the evolution of vampires and Vampirism, but it was full of 3D nonsense, and excessive amounts of fast camera movements. They changed Blade's fighting style to made it more theatrical and artistic as opposed to the gritty "I'm here to kill you" style he used in the first one, which wouldn't be bad, except for the fact that it leaves him open to attacks, and it doesn't fit with his character. Also, the fights were hard to track because of all the flipping and moving happening, especially with the camera constantly moving, and all of the 3D esque elements that were perpetually coming towards the screen.
The evolved vampire design is infinitely cooler (in my opinion) in the second film, but the third film has no mention or show of that form, that's because presumably all of them have been wiped out, but it seems unreasonable for every single evolved vampire to die when their weaknesses are severely anemic compared to the normal vampire weaknesses, but such is life.
Jared Nomak is the main evolved vampire we see during the movie, so keep his name in mind.
So, the evolved vampires have no mandible, but they have an incredibly flexible mouth that opens all the way down their necks to about where their collar bones are. They have venomous neurotoxin that is injected into a person via the huge hooked fangs at the "bottom" of their mouth if you look at a picture, and they drink blood via a parasitic organ that grows after they become infected that is in the center of the mouth. Said organ is able to extend out of the mouth and latch on to whatever is within reach, they are pictured being able to extend about six to twelve inches from the back of the mouth. The organ is pictured on the internet (I don't know if I can show it so I'm not gonna try), it's the thing in the center of the mouth/throat.
But what is infinitely more interesting is the fact that these vampires are practically impervious to most methods used to kill vampires. Silver does nothing, garlic does nothing, stakes do nothing. So, in reality, they have a massively boosted healing factor, and major physiological differences from the normal vampire. They have specially formed bones that protect the heart from being stabbed, their bodies stay alive after they die, and they can't survive more than a few hours without feeding. Also interesting is that they don't have to seek out human blood, they are perfectly able and willing to drink from vampires. "Why do vampires have blood?" I hear you asking, the simple answer is this: because Vampirism is a disease in the Blade cinematic universe.
Anyways, this is getting really long. Thanks for reading if you did, toodles doodles.
Wow, I'm on a roll I suppose, but I'm gonna jump from Die Hard to Blade starring Wesley Snipes, AKA the movies, nor the comics. So this is a post about Blade, it's the basics, but I will be talking about the movies soon since they're great.
Basically, Blade's mother, whose name is Vanessa, was super pregnant with Blade when she got bit by a vampire. So Blade's mom was halfway through becoming a vampire when Blade was birthed (technically removed as she died, but birthed applies I think.) So Blade was born The Day Walker. He has every strength that vampires do, speed, strength, stealth, super senses, and all that jazz. But none of the weaknesses, he can walk in the daylight (hence Day Walker), he can interact with garlic (hence loves Italian food /j), he can interact with silver just fine, and he has a healing factor (though it's slower than most vampires' healing is.)
Unfortunately for him, he also inherited *The Thirst*. Which is basically what it sounds like. Vampires have to consume blood, but unlike the Dracula version, it isn't because that's all they can eat (If that's not right, I apologize). It's because Vampirism is a legitimate virus that can be cured, but it alters the genetic code of a human being and makes it so their blood can't properly do what it needs to, sort of similar to some types of anemia. *The Thirst* is essentially a multi-stage neuro toxin that makes vampires hyper aggressive and desperate for blood.
So being bitten is a problem with a solution, but being born a vampire, which happens a lot is just a time when you're S.O.L. What I'm saying is that Vampirism is a disease almost entirely passed via saliva. It is most similar to a virus, but it is also sort of magic hocus pocus nonsense, but still very cool.
That's all for now, it's the basics on Blade's Vampirism and the basics on the Vampirism of the Blade cinematic universe. Thanks for reading if you did, Toodles Doodles.
Having watched the second Die Hard, I have come to a conclusion: The media is the real enemy.
In the first movie, several problems arose after the news crews showed up and started causing problems. They accosted John's children, and put Holly's life in direct danger because they couldn't understand that there was an actual threat going on that was harming people, all they could focus on was the story.
In the second movie when the media was called by the worst guy, and they yet again caused chaos and unrest which resulted in helping the terrorists. If the media hadn't published the story, the airport would have been busy but not panicking, and then the news got it on air and everyone was pushing and shoving to get outside. The news caused mass panic so bad that John McClane couldn't get out of there by any way other than helicopter. And the journalist that was following him the whole time was a little bit of a freak, but so were several people in the movie.
I haven't seen the third one, but if the news yet again accosts John and Holly McClane, I'm going to be angry but unsurprised. At least in the second one they left the kids out of it.
Thanks for reading if you did, this has been my thoughts on Die Hard and the media, I guess. Toodles, doodles.
The story of Die Hard is founded entirely on the basis that Federal systems and the police are morally objectionable and not something anyone could ever depend on. Think about it, and fair warning I just watched this so major spoilers ahead, but it was also made in 1988, get over it. Anyways, think about the police reaction to John Mclain's cries for help. When he pulled the fire alarm to alert someone to an emergency, the firefighters turned around before reaching the building. Why? Because the terrorists called and said that the building's systems were on the fritz, so that's fair. But then John CALLED THEM. ON THE RADIO. So he phones in and is all like "Guys, there are hostages, and we have a problem, and I'm here inside, please send help" and the radio operator was all like "Erm, sir, you do know this is a secure channel? It's only for emergency nonsense." So John goes "THERE ARE TERRORISTS HERE, LADY, GET ME SOME HELP!!" And the lady goes "um... No." Until John started getting shot at which is ridiculous. So she sends Al, whom I love, say one bad word about Al and I'm banning you from my life. And blocking you. Anyways, so the lady sends sergeant Al Powell and he gets there and WALKS IN. So he goes in and he walks around and then leaves, no further questions, and he only realizes there's danger because John THROWS A DEAD BODY AT HIS CAR. So then he calls in backup, and his boss is incompetent. The boss tries to take the radio from Al and John doesn't like him at all so Al gets it back, but this boss is THE WORST. I wish he died. I hate him. And this boss sends a team of police in, and they get killed because oh, I don't know, TERRORIST ATTACK IN PROGRESS?? And he tries to pull him back but his special "I build and run teams" guy goes "no, no, they're right at the door, let them go in." And the boss is all like "are you stupid, obey me." And of course that doesn't happen and the people explode, which is sad, and nobody even lingers on that. Fast forward, the FBI gets there, and the folks immediately start following protocol, but their protocol is shitty and actively assisting Hans and co. So they get Hans a helicopter like he asked for, and then they get on it and fly up, but as they do that the white guy agent (I can't be bothered to remember his name) says "I figure we'll nail the terrorists and have a 10-20% hostage loss." Sir. Those are people you're talking about. And let's say there's 40 hostages, that's AT LEAST 4 people dead, people with families and lives, and things they love. But yeah, these guys should be the hostage negotiators. Anyways, my main point is that Die Hard would have been resolved in an hour if the systems set in place by the government, police, and FBI were different and actually did some good instead of just "follow procedure, kill bad guy." This has been my Ted Talk (Bad synopsis of) about Die Hard. Thanks for reading, I guess, I will be back after watching Die Hard 2.
