time to be a little hater
#if you like the movie it's best if you dont read this lmao#just cuz this will be a neg rant so#i.#dislike#movie jay so much#i dont like him#they make him an anxious uwu boy and hm.#i really hate that character trope#bc that trope has been used to infantilize gay men and neurodivergent people#and when you take into account that jay in the show displays neurodivergent symptons....... yeah. i dont like that#and im not saying they made that on purpose absolutely not#i 100% believe they did it to make him more appealing (as well as everything in the movie) and make him fit into a more defined role#cuz they needed all of the ninja to be representations of personality types for the audience to relate#and uwu anxious jay is what we got stuck with#sigh#and dont get me started on the voice like. no hate to the voice actors but all the hate to the voice actor casters#i cant stand his voice im sorry#but i guess it's better than a cutesy one so#i just. really. really fucking hate when people make characters be overly ooc cute#i hate it so much#i wont hate anyone in the fandom who does it- i support it actually! do whatever you want im not a fucking cop#but i just wont like it#it's a me problem i know that#also i just understood why i dislike the movie so much by ranting this#it all feels artifically crafted. everything designed to be Appealing. to be Liked#theres a commentary there about society today and the constant push of social media to be appealing and marketable and 'kid friendly'#but i digress
