#it's always the actors...

I absolutely love Miya Cech, I follow her on insta and she seems adorable. But I doubt this is the right track to follow for a character like Toph. (I'm also certain this wasn't Miya's decision but rather the writers, but they are once again letting the young actors take the fall for them just like they did with the changes in Sokka's character, I'm noticing a bad pattern here.)
The whole point of Toph is that she was raised with femininity and grace forced upon her, manners and etiquette being an important part of high society. Being feminine for her also meant not being able to fully embrace her element, seeing as earth is often associated with brute force and strength.
Being feminine just wasn't her, and in running away and embracing who she really is she rejected it completely, learning to love herself in her own way. Toph being Toph drove forward the story! And yes, this came with a bunch of flaws. Toph had a big mouth, was aggressive, rude (which she chose to be), not hygienic, and chose to exhibit bad manners.
I once again notice this pattern of the Netflix writers taking any flaws a character might have and trying their damnest to erase them. Katara wasn't allowed to be a thief, or decisive, or angry. Sokka wasn't allowed his sexist -> feminist arc. Aang wasn't allowed to actually run away from responsibilities. And now Toph isn't allowed to be the brutish girl she is.
#listen i had already given up on this show long ago but boy they just like digging their hole deeper and deeper#and netflix keeps handing them shovels#i don't like that they always let the actors reveal these changes in their interviews#making it seem as if it's their choice#the writers like to have a scapegoat it seems#avatar the last airbender#atla#avatar#natla#netflix atla#netflix#toph beifong#toph#miya cech

Mostly spoiler free summary of my viewing experience
#The boy and the heron#how do you live#studio ghibli#ghibli#in all honesty that movie was legitimately so fantastic and im like changed as a person#Story wise as well! It hits really hard if you know a bit about miyazaki and his legacy. Its a very personal movie i think#And you can feel it in every aspect#The eng dub voice actors were really good as well and the animation was beautiful as always#Also really loved the tone!!! The story really relied a bit on the use of negative space in both sound and pacing and i enjoyed that alot#in conclusion go read a article about miyazaki and his son and then go watch the movie it’s probably going to be one of my favorites#image id in alt

im obsessed with jack wolfe’s portrayal of gabe goodman because what do you mean you played him as a real person who’s dad and sister ignore him, what do you mean you made him real
his version of gabe is so much more sympathetic and that doesn’t take away the anger or the slightly sinister vibes of the character, but wow every time you look at gabe even when he’s not the one singing or talking, something is always going on with his face and body,
im glad the director let him play around with that and that jack wanted the audience to come to their own conclusions on what gabe is/represents
#next to normal#jack wolfe#he made so many interesting choices as an actor I love it#gabe will always be personified grief to me

Your beats make me sick
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan wangji#wei wuxian#a-yuan#wen qing#wen ning#This scene raised several implications that range from retroactively hilarious -#-to confrontationally horrifying.#First with the hilarious bit; Hey! We've seen this scene before!#In fact - this particular duet is so similar to the duet LWJ and WWX perform to calm the mystery arm in Cloud Recess-#-That I am honestly flabbergasted WWX *didn't* realize LWJ would catch on his real identity.#Sure there are a lot of ways you could justify it. But also...even if he didn't play Wangxian.mp3...he would have been found out eventually#"I have to get away from LWJ by annoying him via flirting!' uhhh like you pretty much did throughout most of your late teens?#I think there is something a bit charming about WWX if he's truly that bad of an actor. Go on king. Live your authentic truth.#For the horrifying implications...I didn't depict it here but it's not *just* Wen Ning who breaks out and goes into a frenzy.#It is also the other corpses that are around the burial grounds.#You know; the ones that even he admits he has no idea how many there are!#It puts a lot more weight on 'how much longer do you really think you can do this?'#The village in the burial grounds was *always* under a time limit. It was a matter of when and how it would be destroyed.#And I do believe that firmly. As depressing and pessimistic as it is; The Wen Remnants were never meant to survive.

acting choices
this little scene made me lose my mind because like. the fondness with which Holmes looks at Watson. the curiosity in his eyes as he watches how Watson handles the confrontation with Hayes. the smiles that Watson cannot see. the softness in Holmes' features. the pursed lips, the gentle nudge to go. it's just. love and love and love because this is exactly how you look at the person you adore above all else and just. sigh. I love them.
#jeremy brett I swear to god when I get to you#you will answer for this#because my god. the acting choices are just. top fucking notch.#like do you understand? he didn't have to. I always wonder how much the actors make up#just how much did jeremy actually invent and think like#I'm now gonna look at watson as if he is the sun. just because I can. and because he is.#like??? excuse me sir? and I'm supposed to be normal about this or what#sherlock holmes#john watson#granada holmes#jeremy brett#edward hardwicke#shgif#mygif#sherlock holmes 1984#the priory school

Listen I have no idea what Murderbot looks like in my head but it is NOT a conventionally handsome blonde man
#Murderbot#I see a live action is happening and I wanna love it I WANNA LOVE IT#But like#The actor who plays is is SO DISCORDANT with whatever I was imagining while reading that it feels bizarre#I’ll definitely get over it but uhghhgh it always feels weird with book to visual adaptations

"Good" Acting
i have a theory that a lot of people say acting is "good" when they're emotionally moved by it, and a lot of cishet white people have a lifelong habit of not listening or empathising when minoritised people speak, so minority actors get called "bad" even when they display some pretty fucking amazing technical skill
#also a lot of female actors don't get recognised despite being fucking GOOD#that's not to say minority actors can't always be bad#of course we can#I'm just saying#sometimes#for SOME shows in particular#ahem ahem#some actors might get very heavily criticised for reasons that have very little to do with their actual technical skill#and more to do with the politics of those criticising them#also I'm not talking about me here#before anyone says that#I'm talking about some actors I know who have recently been criticised in my opinion quite unfairly#despite doing something very difficult#like oooohhh i dunno#playing two roles in the same show?#and doing it very well#displaying some amazing technical mastery of body and voice technique#but hey what do I know#oh wait I went to drama school and I'm a professional actor lol I DO know#I'm just a woman so I have to couch my expertise in cutesy self-deprecation lest people think I'm a bitch
