#Netflix creature

[perplexingly]

Yaratılan quickly became my favourite Frankenstein adaptation, so here’s a fanart

As someone who took literary criticism and was obsessed with Mary Shelley in high school and college, I am begging more people to watch “Creature”!!!

It’s a Turkish limited series on Netflix and may just be one of the best adaptations of Frankenstein I’ve ever seen

I just started Creature and it’s so mf good I’m on episode 6 and I’m CRYING

i think we all know who the REAL star of season 3 is

i'm making a vague attempt to pace out this season by doing a drawing after each episode, so anyway here's my new fave character

My one serious gripe with Gyeongseong Creature is that there are two different languages being spoken in this show, and the subtitles are doing nothing to indicate that. This is a story set during the Japanese occupation of Korea. There are both Japanese and Korean characters and they constantly code switch between languages to indicate status, class, and true loyalties. Sometimes the switches are subtle and fast, and if your ear is not well-trained enough in the differences between Korean and Japanese you can easily miss it. This is relevant for both character and plot, so it’s a pretty egregious oversight from Netflix.

Fanart of To Become the Water’s Foam

“He had gills. There, on his neck, below his jaw, were delicate, green-edged gills. That was why his hair seemed to be that funny greenish tone. That was why his skin seemed that strange colour, and why his eyes seemed to have shifted colour to green, too. It wasn’t the reflection of the light off the water making him see things. That was why Jaskier was singing that same mer dialect that the mermaid Sh’eenaz used: for some reason, Yennefer’s magic orb had put a Jaskier here who was a merman.”

this fanfic has such an interesting twist on the Mer-Jaskier idea. There’s also wonderfully complex Yenralt and Geraskier. Seriously go read it!

i have said this before about other netflix dramas, but i feel that the nuance of gyeongseong creature is a bit ruined by the lacking subtitle. i think every moment where a character makes the switch between two languages is so important. a character can reveal themself as either a traitor or a comrade just by switching from japanese to korean. that’s why jang tae-sang reacts the way he does toward the nurse at the end of episode 2. i feel like viewers who couldn’t differentiate between the 2 languages probably wouldn’t understand the significance. and idk, i think more effort could have been made in the subtitle department. like, adding “[in japanese]” and “[in korean]”, perhaps? idk.

the thing is this has been happening since forever with netflix dramas? and nobody is doing anything about it? i’m frustrated lol.

An aspect of Hilda the series that I feel isn’t talked about enough is the colonizer’s guilt and how it affects the main character.

What made me write this was watching the third episode of the new season, but honestly, it’s something we see throughout the whole series. Starting out with the elves in the northern counties, and moving on to trolls and now giants. Every season that came out gave us a chance to see Hilda deal with the feelings that arise from living in a society she knows is built on the occupation of another people’s native land and the oppression of those inhabitants.

She knows it’s not her fault, she knows she’s not the colonizer, but she’s well aware that she’s in the privileged side of her society. Seeing her grapple with the fact that her very existence in these spaces is only possible because someone else is getting the short end of the stick, to me at least, makes her that much more interesting of a character.

Because it’s not a matter of fixing what she’s done, but the privilege is still there and not even well hidden when she sees the day to day life of the people whose land has been occupied by humans/trolbergians. So whenever we see her rush to aid them, her borderline desperation to fix what’s been broken, it’s even more captivating because it’s not just the usual “I love helping people and having adventures” gist, there’s always this undertone of guilt for something she hasn’t personally done but still knows has to be held accountable for.

Hilda knows the type of oppression that people like her get away with. And she wants no part in it.
