What she says: I’m fine

What she means: In Howl’s Moving Castle Sophie goes back in time and witnesses Howl making his original deal with Calcifer thus discovering the way to break Howl’s curse and before she leaves she tells Howl to find her in the future and if you recall to the beginning of the movie Howl saves Sophie from some highly questionable and rapey soldiers and tells her “there you are sweetheart, sorry I’m late, I’ve been looking everywhere for you” because he took what she told him as a child to heart and has been looking for her ever since and if that’s not the tightest shit ever I don’t know what is

I can’t believe the 2005 pride & prejudice completely understood that the ONLY correct characterization for Darcy was having him look mortifyingly uncomfortable in literally every situation he’s placed in. his body language is just. horrifying. this man wants to crawl into a hole. not to mention he’s like 6 and a half feet tall which is just. he’s so uncomfortably Large that you can’t ignore him even though he Desperately Wants You To Ignore Him. thank GOD they didn’t try any of that Dashing Gentleman bullshit. awkward nerd is the only correct Darcy.

Literally the reason 2005 version is the first time I ever ever EVER understood why people actually liked P&P and didnt think it was an obnoxious clusterfuck of assholery because no, Darcy wasnt an asshole. He had fucking social anxiety masked by long years of training in social graces. That made a huge difference in how I processed the story. I just never picked it up in any other version. Matthew McFayden nailed it.

to this day i cannot believe that suzanne collins wrote ‘the hunger games’ series, dedicated to exploring the media’s sick obsession with capitalising off violence, romance and the suffering of others… then the movie adaptations proved her point perfectly by making millions through marketing the films almost entirely off their brutality and the katniss/peeta/gale love triangle

me, learning about the greek pantheon in elementary: wow, I love athena, so brave and smart

me, after reading about the story of medusa: athena is a spiteful, dumb bitch who can’t direct her anger at the right people! wack ass hoe

Me, after learning than Medusas head was used as a sign of safety and female autonomy in women’s spaces because it was seen as a gift from Athena, to allow Medusa never to be harmed that way again: oh dope, Athenas on our side. Kill a man who dares to look upon you with possession in his heart.

Me, after learning that Athena holds herself to the ‘not like other girls’ standard and usuallys sides with whatever the nearest dick-toting diety says: what the fuck what a fake bitch

Me, after learning that most of the media depicting Greek Gods by the ancient Greeks that survives today was commissioned, designed, and made by men, and therefore does not depict female interpretation or telling of the myths, and is probably extremely biased towards a misogynistic portrayal of a strong woman: the canon Athena was in our hearts all along.

It literally only took Professor Utonium sugar, spice, and everything nice (plus an accidental dose of chemical X) to preform human transmuation, so I dunno why Ed Elric’s child prodigy ass couldn’t do it.

Now that I think about it they’re not actually human, and the Professor wasn’t trying to bring anyone back. The Powerpuff Girls are homunculi and this is the hill i die on. Chemical X was liquefied philosopher’s stone.
