I think one of my favorite little details about spike's character is how he treated drusilla. he wasn't just "patient" with her disability, he actively treated it as just another thing about her to love. he verry rarely coddled her or tried to get her to be more present in a situation when she wasn't capable. (I can't think of a single time that he did but i feel like there were some when he was already upset at other people?). he learned to understand what she was saying even when it sounded like nonsense. when she was upset he comforted her, no matter how often it happened. when she started dancing he danced with her.

and we see in buffy 5x20 that it wasn't just his love for dru that made him act like that. when tara was incoherent and opened the window in the van, he didn't just immediately forgive her for burning him, he never got upset in the first place. he yelled, of course, because he was hurt, but as soon as willow started apologizing and trying to explain he just nodded. because it's no biggie! he already understands. some people are just like that, and he doesn't see accommodating that as the big deal that the people around him are making it out to be.

this is really a non-issue compared to everything else they get wrong, but the way these live-action remakes of animated movies have been translating their non-human characters to screen has been bothering me. you can see it with how to train your dragon, pinocchio, and more recently lilo & stitch: they keep the designs essentially unchanged, just with a more realistic rendering. on the one hand i honestly get why they do it, considering that 1) these remakes only exist to bank on nostalgia and on the novelty of getting to see a cartoon in 'real life', so the closer they stick to the looks of the source material, the better, 2) fans tend to get really really (sometimes irrationally) mad when people make even small changes to previously established designs of beloved characters, and 3) most previous attempts to make a cartoony design come across as more 'realistic' have not been well executed (just look at the ugly sonic debacle)

but on the other hand, i cannot ignore how out of place some of these designs feel when brought to a live-action setting basically unchanged. they have more leeway than usual on this case due to the fact that these are non-human characters who are supposed to look fantastical and alien, but when you look at them in motion, you see they carry the style of the original work they came from all over them in a way that clashes with everything else.

like, pinocchio may be made of wood, but on the original movie, he was supposed to look very close to a 'real boy', because that's what real boys looked like on that movie. pinocchio did not look very different from lampwick, for instance:

compare that to how he looks next to live-action lampwick:

it looks like lampwick is hanging out with a possessed doll. that's not the vibe the movie or this scene should have. and the same goes for stitch and every other alien on that movie -- they were not supposed to look human, or even humanoid on stitch's case, but they all clearly carried that distinct art style of chris sanders. looking at the original lilo and stitch standing next to each other, you see they both carry similar proportions in how their heads are shaped:

which, again, doesn't make stitch look more 'human', on this case, but it does make him look like he belongs to that universe, because that's how things look like there; that's how heads are drawn and how eyes are spaced. the same logic applies to jumba too, for instance. and when it comes to the live-action version:

stitch's design looks way more 'unreal' next to a real girl, less like a weird animal that could possibly exist in real life and more like a plush toy that talks.

i don't actually expect them to ever to something different, really, since changing it would be kind of just an unnecessary and risky move on their part, but it does bother me how so many fans apparently just eat this stuff up without feeling even a little weirded out by how it looks. does stylization mean nothing to you people

i am not understanding rick's thought process behind the characters consistent mockery of percy's intelligence. especially in light of knowing that the characters do value percy as a friend and demigod. he was the child of the prophecy. he jumped into the river styx to better prepare for defending olympus. he used his gods-given wish to build a better future for demigods. he plays an active role as camp counselor at chb and is a respected confidant at cj. he is evidently held in high regard in his absense. but the surrounding characters seem to treat his presence like a hinderance to their peace. it's rather disappointing to read.

I’ve been trying to get better at not drawing totally accurate spider anatomy all the time and also doing more interesting poses for taurs because they’re not just an expressive human upper body on top of some animal legs. So here’s Karleeen doing things !

I think a lot about Leo standing up for his brothers in the things that really matter to them.

Like- Leo is the one who immediately pushes Mikey and Donnie into finding Raph the second it’s clear that their oldest brother is missing because he knows Raph can’t handle being separated like that.

Leo is the one who stands up for Mikey when Mikey wants to go on a solo mission, actively vouching for him and being the one to convince Raph into letting Mikey go, because being independent and proving himself just as capable of standing on his own two feet as everyone else means so much to Mikey.

And Leo defends Donnie’s honor in particular when his brothers’ intelligence is insulted because Leo is well aware of how important Donnie’s smarts are to him - and how important having those smarts valued and acknowledged is as well.

All this goes right into just how well Leo knows his brothers. For as much as he’ll tease or fight with them, he knows them, and he loves them.

I wrote this on discord last night but I'm reposting here mainly because I think "eddie walks into that kitchen like a prey animal. emotionally speaking" is a funny argument (but also true????).

The kitchen scene starts with eddie walking through the dark hallway unaware of what's in the kitchen. so eddie starts from a position of vulnerability and lack of sight. the camera cuts to the grocery bag first, but eddie still only has a partial view of the room. then the camera moves quickly to buck and we get the infamous low-angle shot. so eddie/the camera/the audience sees something incongruous in the space and it's like "OH NO, SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT" and has to look for, and then look up at, Buck (and again, we're too low to be aligned with eddie's eyeline, so that camera movement is deliberately being exaggerated). Low-angle shots are historically used to make the subject of the shot look larger, distorted, and more threatening btw. And Buck is also stretching up, so he's physically even bigger than he would otherwise be.

Cinematographically, Eddie is the one walking into a "dangerous" situation that he's unprepared for, clocks the sign of danger, and starts immediately scanning the space for threats, only to alight on buck, who's all puffed up in the frame like a bear on its hind legs.

Like obviously nobody is in physical danger in this scene (I can't believe I have to caveat that), but the character who's visually framed as most vulnerable during this argument is Eddie. Just saying.
