Okay two things

1) every time I see something like this, or photos of wild unrealistic landscapes that really exist, or spectacular architecture, whatever it is, I think again that when we write fantasy, we NERF REALITY. That is, here's some dude with a special interest and a brain that somehow lacks basic self preservation mechanisms, and he's out here looking like a super hero. Regular humans are capable of things we seem super human. Real landscapes are more fantastical than our fantasies. Reality is more fantastical than our fantasies.

2) how the fuck did he not kick out any windows that's the most impressive part of the whole video.

the switch from ‘a girl worth fighting for’ to coming upon the decimated village in mulan is THE MOST kick-in-the-teeth mood change IN ALL OF CINEMA

That scene shift did more for our generation’s understanding of the horror of war in ten seconds than Game of Thrones did in eight seasons, and it did it without showing us a single dead body. 

OKAY BUT HOLD ON THOUGH.

I’ve spent the past… five? Let’s say five - the past five years analyzing the structure of Disney Musicals as part of the process to write my own/a parody of them, and the thing is that all the modern ones have roughly the same number of songs - except Mulan.

Mulan has about half, because after AGWFF ends with that unresolved final phrase, there are no more songs until the end credits, which isn’t even sung in-universe.

Mulan wasn’t even the REALM of fucking around - when they arrive at that village, when the true horrors of war are brought into the story, not only does it interrupt THAT song, it breaks the entire fucking mold - the movie’s damn genre changes; it is no longer a musical.

And the Huns represent this from the start - Jafar and Hades are notable for not having proper villain songs, but Jafar does get his Prince Ali refrain and Hades and his plan get sung ABOUT by the muses. No scene with the Huns has any singing, they are mentioned once in song (the second line of Man, natch), and they of all Disney Villains are probably the most serious - no jokes, no witty asides, no sassy delivery of dry humor. The Huns are an invading army who plan to straight up kill a fuckton of people, including children, and AGWFF’s sudden end is the moment when our happy go lucky MUSICAL protagonists finally come in contact with them and their work directly - and it breaks them. Because shit like the Huns cannot exist in happy go lucky musical world. They just exist in our world. The real world. And you can’t sing your problems away here.

The end of A Girl Worth Fighting For is a brilliant use of metanarrative sensibilities to convey a message. It is utterly perfect.

Daaaamn, Tony. That’s fucking deep, my guy

I didn’t spend two years and thousands of dollars on a Master’s Degree in literature to NOT over analyze every text I engage with.

Mechanical crab suit made volcano erupt

That’s more than six words!

Try: “Naughty Children Forced To Team Build”

“It was a silver dragon all along”

Alternatively: “HE WASNT AN OLD MAN, PETRICHOR!”

If you’re Non-binary, please remember that like 90% of Legendary Pokemon are genderless

Also it doesn’t matter what you present as/look like.

Super masc? Doesn’t matter, still whatever.

Kinda fem and masc? Sure!

SUPER fem? Stillll genderless.

Demiboy? Demigirl? Transgender? Fabulous!

Really just neutral? You’re epic!

Gender changes from day to day? Well, sorry to say it, but you sound kinda like a god to me!

…. or, maybe, maybe, you just wanna eat disrespectful bigots who trespass on your territory?

you can do that too.

Basically, just - if you’re not cis, don’t be scared. You might not be ‘the norm’, but that just means that you’re legendary.

Reminders for the Anxious/Depressed Creatives

  • You’re more than what you make.
  • Your productivity does not determine your value.
  • It’s okay to do nothing sometimes.
  • Not everything you do has to result in a product.
  • Not everything you make has to be important, significant, or even good.
  • You can make things just for yourself.
  • You can keep secrets for yourself, whether it’s not posting some of your projects or not sharing your techniques.
  • You’re allowed to say no.
  • You’re allowed to rest.

A distress signal reaches you, through one way or another, be it a camp pin, or a radio, or even a cell phone.

“Mayday mayday! Please- oh god she’s taken this too far…” A panicked boy’s voice exclaims. “I- I- Ugh! I- if you are getting this message, it means I need help! The draconequus monster known as Flare has 27 human souls and if she gets one more, she will destroy SEVERAL timelines forever! Yo- your friends- Sarah, Aurey, Tasha, Cryptid, Flirts- a- all of them! Gone! S- she’s got someone on her side who- who I can’t beat! I… I can’t beat her…. Please…. I need your help…. If you accept, you’ll be transported to the timeline she’s in…. Find the human in a jacket with a pine tree patch. He’ll help you, because he’s m- Oh god she’s coming! Please hurry!”

The recording cuts out suddenly, as if it were recorded in a hurry.

A paper floats down, with two boxes, one labeled yes, and one labeled no.

What do you do?

Do you flee….. or do you stay and fight?

Dear Tumblr,

So I’m sure y’all remember this post, that I reblogged quite a bit.

I’d love it if you could donate a few dollars, or even commission me

Help this trans boy go see his girlfriend, please!
