New Zukka Art Prompt: Zukka being proud Dads to Aang’s cheerleading dreams

[momos-servants]

One minute live from Ian Ousley (Sokka) and guest star Dallas Liu (Zuko)

i'm probably still not going to watch the live action at least for a while i have a mental block about it but i keep getting videos of dallas like interviews and he's so hot We need to get him removed from screen so i can know peace

[ultfreakme]

I like how Dallas pushes Zukka and Gordon pushes Kataang (as much as Gordon can without having that hive go after him). Does anyone on that cast like #that ship 😭

I want to speak more, but I fear that if I do, I will be getting into shipping drama and I have somehow dodged it for a year but it DOES feel like absolutely no one in the live action is inclined to ship.....#that ship (I also think it's because Dallas was a whole adult when he met Kiawentiio, who was 14 when they met, whereas Sokka's actor is the same age as him. Gordon and Kiawentiio were talking in interviews about doing schoolwork lol). Shout out to Joel D Montgrand for that insane Modern AU take on Zukka video with Dallas and Ian. Also Gordon for picking Katara without a second thought in choosing the water tribe siblings (I will remember you EP 8 scene where Yuekka is paralleled with Kataang)

Do Revenge-on who? jews?

The newly released netflix-original "Do Revenge" is, in my opinion, actually a good movie. It's fun, it's interesting, it's kinda camp, it's good. It has a diverse cast, it's pretty gay, and it examines the gray-area of morality. Throughout the movie you can notice some very nice little details. For instance: a woman with lipstick carries a cup with a straw-there's lipstick on the straw. A couple plays around in colors-there's a finger-drawn heart on the guy's cheek by the end of the montage. Two besties wear a school uniform, one in purple one in green-they each have the other girl's hat. Then there's one detail-one that's quite easy to find and frankly hard to miss-that...has no explanation whatsoever.

The BIG BAD™ of the movie is a guy named Max. Max is everyone's favorite. Max controls the school in every way. Max has the richest, most politically connected family out of them all. Max manipulates everyone, especially women, throughout the entire movie. Max manages to convince every person at school that he is a "woke", kind, caring guy.

Nothing is mentioned about Max's origins/religion. At no point of the movie does it become in any way relevant (nor is it being mentioned, at that) what Max's religion is.

Almost.

Because there's one little detail they decided to integrate into the movie.

[ID: a picture of Max from Do Revenge. He's wearing a halfway-unbuttoned shirt, revealing a golden Magen-David necklace. End ID]

This is max. The necklace he's quite lavishly wearing is a Magen-David (Star of David) necklace. In case you're unfamiliar with it, the Magen-David is a jewish symbol. The main symbol of judaism, in fact. Many jewish people wear a Magen-David necklace, just like many christians wear a cross necklace.

The necklace is never discussed. It only hangs very prominently from the main villain's neck.

And I just don't know what to do about that. There was no reason for this detail. There is no possible explanation for it other than antisemitism.

"It's the actor's personal necklace"-That's not how movies work. That doesn't exist. If you make a movie and you have a decent enough budget for it, there will be NOTHING in the frame that you didn't intend to be there. I mentioned the cute, nice details earlier to show exactly that. They noticed every little detail. They PUT every little detail into the movie.

"It's a part of the character's aesthetic design"-Okay. Use a different necklace. I agree, many douchebags do wear necklaces. JUST NOT THAT NECKLACE. A necklace with any other, meaningless, pendant or a necklace without one altogether would've served the exact same aesthetic purpose.

"So what? Are you saying there aren't any jewish people who are also assholes?"-No. In fact, I happen to personally know quite a few of them. But that's a movie, not real life. If you make a movie and the only objectively, unredeemably evil character just so happens to also be the only visibly jewish character-that's not random.

The necklace means Max is jewish. The necklace serves no purpose other than letting the viewer know Max is jewish.

Then there's the Yiddish thing. Max randomly integrating the words "I'm kvelling" (in Yiddish-feeling happy, proud) into a sentence. Something that also serves no purpose and could've been very easily replaced with multiple different, english, words.

Of course, there's Max's sister, who i guess is jewish by-proxy. She's presented as a morally good character, so that's nice. Only that-just like with Max, it's never said that Gabbie's jewish; but unlike Max, Gabbie doesn't have any jewish atributes or wear any jewish paraphernalia. nor does she say anything in Yiddish.

She also isn't as main a character as Max is, since he serves the role of the main antagonist while she serves the role of the love interest of one of the protagonists. Anyway, that part is more individual. Anyone can decide for themselves if Gabbie's character brings them any comfort in the matter, all i can say is-it didn't for me.

In conclusion, antisemitism is nothing new. This isn't the first and it won't be the last Netflix Original with antisemitic aspects. But I'm especially unpset by this one because that little detail robbed me of having Do Revenge as a favorite. I loved the movie, and it so easily could've avoided all that. But for some reason they chose to undermine the main, feminist, message with an antisemitic one. And that's just...too bad, if you ask me.

my favorite hobby is trying to explain the plot of an episode from a show with more than 5 seasons, especially if it's a fantasy/sci-fi show. i mean it sounds so unhinged and it's always like "so by now she's died like five times and came back to life right? and now that she's half alien she's also immortal, but she's not immortal anymore bc she's pregnant now from her cis lesbian wife-what?-no, it IS biologically possible, she's half alien, try to keep up-so now she might die in world war 1. good thing we have the steel man.

I'm over here in the destiel trenches with Unknown/Nth with all the widower/divorce arcs on that show and now you're hitting me with divorced zukka with this song?? Fuckin 😭😭

But also has zukka Tumblr addressed the TikTok of zuko and aangs live action actors being adorable together and then Dallas says his favorite character other than zuko is sokka (which: correct lmao)? (Or does zukka Tumblr distinctly not care about live action stuff? I'm not over here much lol)

teehee the divorced zukka vibes are so strong in that song <3

also nah we dont really care about the live action stuff, most of us are Nervous about it, but dallas is so real for that
