eeeeeeeeeeeee! 💜🐈💜

It’s the little tongue that gets me 👅

Amazons charging into battle ↳ Wonder Woman vs. Justice League

Male directors gotta get dem ass shots.

-_-

To be fair though, aquaman is gonna be shirtless for most of the movie

Aquaman = token eye candy guy whose muscles are also a signal of his STRENGTH/POWER (and, tbh, is also probably topless to signify that he’s underwater a lot, as most men nowadays don’t swim with tops on/in a full fighting suit)

ALL Amazons (incl. Wonder Woman) = eye candy butt shots (a nice butt is not a sign of strength/power, btw)

Multiple women vs ONE DUDE. Not the same level, I’m not explaining this false equivalence crap over and over again.

These gifs aren’t even focusing on the amount of skin on show. They’re about how framing is everything, and how differently a woman frames the women compared to a man. In the WW shot, you see their faces as they roar into battle. In JL, you see their (for some reason UNTIED) hair and bare asses in their skimpier costumes.

Also apparently there’s a bit where Aquaman is SUUUUPPER skeezy about Wonder Woman and it’s not pleasant so ew ew ewwwww

Diana Prince sweeping people including me off their feet

Ugh. This exact shot comparison had Margaret Atwoods “MALE GAZE! MALE GAZE!” alarm going off in my head when watching the Justice League trailer.

Slow mo panty shots are not the best way to use your female characters.

The framing of this is so lazy. Its such bad directing that it really highlights how blessed we were in Wonder Woman. It could have been the hot mess that is Justice League.

Dianas whole body vs Dianas butt centre frame. Seeing the hit vs Did she get him? Can’t see, because BUTT is taking up whole screen.

Patty Jenkins used her slowed moments to do 4 things at once

1. To give the viewer an easier time following fast action sequences in the dull dc colour pallette.

This negated the ‘transformers effect’ of blurred blah hitting something that was batman vs superman. Marvels colour pallet allows for bright red guy, bright blue guy, big green guy to move through chaotic screens easier because the colour draws they eye and makes it easier to follow.

2. To emphasise Diana’s super strength.

By slowing down before the impact we feel the HIT harder when time speeds up again. In the Justice League trailer we don’t even really see the hit. Is that a guys leg? Did she get him? The slow mo in Justice League is used to have more time to focus on the panty shot, to make sure you didn’t miss your chance to sexualise her. It doesn’t even speed up as she hits. Its more like a cat knocking something off the shelf. Not that you are looking at the hit, it is barely in frame because we need more room for the Butt.

3. To show the difference between real time and relative time.

For characters like the Flash, Supes and Wondy they all perceive time differently from regular mortals. This allows for bullet dodging and other shennanigans. Slowing time down, gives us a glimpse into how they percieve time. You can focus on a body part but it has to be the part of them that is using that slowed time. Thier face - Are they strategising in extra time? Thier hands - reflecting bullets or moving something. Thier Butt - yeah, I got nothing.

4. To show what characters are feeling during fast paced combat scenes.

Antiope’s slow mo jump gives us time to see the satisfaction in her face before she shoots the soliders. Multiple times in Wondy we see Dianas joy, fear or determination in a fight thanks to slow mo. This happens because when you frame her whole body as much as possible we get to see her face and body language. The slowed time gives us a chance to interpret them without constantly having to insert closeups of her face, breaking up the action. It gives Dianas fight scenes a presence lacking in other Superhero films.

When I saw this the Justice League trailer the first time my disappointment lingered for days. My main take aways were “The Flash seems charming but his outfit is soooo bad” and “Ooooh boy, they don’t know how to do Wondy.” It didn’t help any that I watched the Justice League trailer and the Thor : Ragnarok trailer back to back. If we really wanna look at disappointing comparisons, look no further.

Reposting this because seriously more female directors looking after exciting female characters so they’re not all reduced to butt shots k plz thx

so much for the tolerant left

Just some of the many times Ellen “Giggleton” Rose has lost it.

TIL there’s a limit on picture uploads.

So. Many. Giggle. Gifs.

The many faces of Luke Westaway

It’s hard to keep a straight face when someone’s eyebrows are that expressive.

We turned a year old today! Here is a beautiful infographic with lots of numbers that BLEW OUR MINDS!

Also, go watch our birthday video!

I have a fun job - thank you <3

bitch ass nazis

When people call you a “snowflake” just remember they’re quoting Fight Club, a satire written by a gay man about how male fragility causes men to destroy themselves, resent society, and become radicalized, and that Tyler Durden isn’t the hero but a personification of the main character’s mental illness, and that his “snowflake” speech is a dig at how fascists use dehumanizing language to breed loyalty from insecure people.

So basically people who say “snowflake” as an insult are quoting a domestic terrorist who blows up skyscrapers because he’s insecure about how good he is in bed.

It’s another very animated Show of the Weekend! We share our love of Splatoon 2, and Luke quizzes Ellen to see if she has Sonic Mania…!

Making this show makes me very happy.
