Grigon’s hot, pass it on

Ok, but genuinely, Elio was such a good movie 😭 I dont understand why people are so mean about it. Yeah, it wasn’t like some kind of groundbreaking story, but it was sweet and had some moments that got me teary eyed. It filled a niche that Lilo and Stitch and Wall-E and Luca filled and it made me really happy.

AND GRIGON WAS A GOOD DAD! You guys know how I feel about good dad characters 😭 He reminded me of Mandrake from Epic, completely ready to destroy the universe for his son. Glordon was so sweet and their moment at the end was so nice.

So in the end, yeah I think the movie is worth seeing 💖 Made my alien loving heart happy

Lily gets too much hate. Especially when all the characters are pretty morally questionable. How I met your mother is a fun show to watch but honestly I would never be friends with any of the gang.

I had one minor hit. I had to go all over Canada and sing this song in malls. For a whole year I lived off of Orange Juliuses and Wetzel's Pretzels.

Honestly, cancel your streaming services, find a good pirating site and or start collecting physical media

Then use the money from your streaming services to get a movie theater subscription.

It's a great way to get yourself out of the house and it's a good solo activity.

I love how "Sinners" didn't villify the sinners in the movie. Sammie's father told him that playing music for "drunkards and philanderers who abandon their family responbilities to sweat all over each other" was a sin. And he was right about the kind of people going to the juke joint: Delta Slim is an alcoholic, and Pearline a cheater. It would have been easy to villify them, but the movie tells us that despite their flaws, they are humans worthy of love, respect and freedom.

Delta Slim drinks because he's traumatized by the horrors Black people of his time face. And he's kind and compassionate, encouraging and reassuring Sammie, and sacrificing himself to save everyone else.

Pearline literally saved Sammie's life and sacrificed herself to protect him, a boy she had only known for a day. It shows her kindness because she could have easily stayed back when Remmick tried to bite Sammy and not endangered her life more than necessary.

The movie shows us that preachers blindly condemning those sinners are wrong: Sammie is only alive because drunkards, philanderers and gangsters (Smoke) gave their lives to protect him. They are people, with flaws and qualities.

I love how nuanced the movie is: Sammie's father is not wrong about the kind of people Sammie wants to associate with and their potential bad influence, but he's wrong about them being evil and not deserving of respect.

Propaganda I will NOT be falling for:

Riri Williams/Ironheart hate

Carol Danvers slander

Sam Wilson/Captain America slander

Glazing every single pre-phase four movie but trashing everything post-phase four. The franchise is allowed to explore stories beyond the original Avengers like please gtfo my face

Idk two weeks ago people were going on and on and on about how "they like the underdogs better", "morally good characters are boring", "perfect characters without any moral gripes are unrelatable", "they like a good redemption arc of people who did something wrong and wants to try to do good" bla bla bla bla bla... Now suddenly the same people are saying Riri is an irredeemable villain because she chose to work with questionable people for money (hmmm remind me again who else also did that HMM), and not saving a guy who was most definitely gonna kill her if he got out? I WONDER WHY HMM (fuck you guys actually lol, so transparent)
