My Biggest Issue With The Httyd Live Action-and Just About Any Live Action Reboot Is That It Seems That

He probably feels right at home then lmao

In case you might have forgotten: mcu! Bucky canonically assassinated JFK and went on to become a United States congressman.

The more you know. 🌈

I just wanna talk about that whole plaguis thing again.

Now, what I HAVE seen some people discuss is that the mystery planet where Qimir lives is actually the same unknown planet where Luke buggers off to in ep 8 to die in exile. The origin for all the jedi, etc.

What I HAVEN'T seen discussion about is how the shot with Plagueis looks a LOT like the sequence from ep. 8 with Luke telling Rey that the jedi need to end.

First, you have the inside shot from the crevice. inside, looking out. the shapes of the rocks seem pretty similar to me anyway. plagueis's claw-hands come creeping out.

then, you've got the outside looking in shot, where we see Plagueis's face. looking out at the one thing (Osha) that not only spells his eternal future, but also the end of jedi (since a. Osha directly turns against the jedi and b. the whole vergance thing would allow him to rise to power in opposition to the jedi eternally). The quest for that power would almost destroy the jedi through palpatine and vader, you know?

idk. something about the fall of the jedi beginning in that shot with Plagueis's first glimpse at hope for immortality and the end of the Jedi juxtaposed with Luke eventually ending up framed in almost the same way, wishing the jedi would just end. . . it seems intentional to me.

maybe it's just random brain sauce, but I think there could be something significant there. I don't think i'm capable of fluent literary analysis though so I probably didn't explain it well.

stop disrespecting animation by making live action remakes gOD

so I did a thing

Your comments about AI users being talentless tells me you don't really understand art. It's about the product, not the tools. You can waste your life learning how to use a thousand of brushes and programs and you'll be easily outshone by someone who uses AI to draw what they want. The 'talentless' usually crow on about techniques and tools and miss the point of making art.

"You can waste your life learning how to use a thousand brushes and programs" And there, this is the attitude of the non-artists-AI-lovers in a nutshell. You see, drawing artists like using brushes. "Someone who uses AI to draw what they want."

No. If you instruct the AI to do something, you aren't 'drawing' anything. "The talentless" The 'talentless' is you. Telling an AI what image you want to be drawn doesn't require any talent.

100%

Live action only has a purpose if it’s improving upon the previous animated version.

Honestly? I haven’t seen a SINGLE “live” action adaptation that’s improved an animated feature. I think most people would agree that no “live” remake would EVER replace the animated version, so remind me then: what’s the point?!??? why are we doing this?!?

If I want to experience the magic of ATLA or HTTYD or the Lion King. . . why the hell would I watch the inferior version?!? ESPECIALLY since I can just as easily access the original, better version?!? idk it makes no sense to me. Make new stories in the universe if you must, but at LEAST put the effort into making it look good.

I'm so so tired of "live action" remakes. HTTYD is my comfort film. It's ALREADY good. I was JUST telling my family that I love Dreamworks for making interesting films and not going the "Disney Cash Cow" route by making all their old franchises into "live action".

It hurts my heart to see this is happening. They don't NEED to do this. And if it does well we're just going to get more... we're going to get live action shrek and live action madagascar and we won't have anything new any more.

I hate that capitalism is killing literally everything i hold dear, trying to squeeze every last drop out of what makes us happy.

inspired by a friend misspeaking

can't believe gen 9 turned into Pokémon: Spain Simulator and Pokémon: French Simulator (Remastered Edition)

In Legends Arceus, you had to fight for your life as Pokemon tried to kill you in a mostly untamed wilderness, mimicking the real life conditions of pre colonized Hokkaido

In Legends ZA, if you go out after dark, the French will mug you, mimicking the real life conditions of modern Paris
