You Ever Get Those Really, Really, Dumb Cross Over Ideas That Will Make Sense To Maybe A Few Hundred

You ever get those really, really, dumb cross over ideas that will make sense to maybe a few hundred people and none of your circles have the same two fandoms overlapping, and now you’re stuck with the complete and utter knowledge that there are better My Hero Academia characters to be avatars for the last few Magnus Archives fear entities, but you already found damn near perfect match ups for half of them? Like sure it’s easy to match up the Desolation, the Hunt, and the Dark, but who’s gonna be an avatar of the web huh? Is Mirio really the best avatar of the Buried? You don’t know. An absolute tragedy

A warm up Itachi Uchiha sketch because I have slowly been making my way through Shippuden and he’s just funny to me for absolutely no reason

Actually you know what? Fuck it. Puts on My Villain Outfit and starts my slow motion walk while Melanie Martinez plays

Villanelle from Killing Eve, because Queer female assassins are my favorite thing of all the things, also this outfit was amazing, also a version with a little blood.

Hawks redesign, because although he is far from the worst, he literally just wears solid corduroy.

Cruella is far and beyond my favorite of the stupid ass Disney reboots. The rest of this post is pretty much just spoilers: The soundtrack was great, we get found family like woah, me and my brother turned and looked at each other at the same point and go “you know I really hope she actually does make a Dalmatian coat” and she still got to be batshit crazy. It ran a bit too long, the dialogue was clunky in spots, and the cgi on the dogs was distractingly bad, but none of that was enough to really sink it in my opinion. And a big win, for once the villain who was queercoded by obsession with a clearly younger woman in the animated version wasn’t given a male love interest as part of her redemption. (this is a direct call out to Maleficent)

The costumes and aesthetics of the film were great as always, and this was the first time in one of these live action reboots that the ✨🥰 #girl-boss moments didn’t feel cheap, because it actually devoted a huge amount of runtime to relationships between women. And as a fun side effect you get to see a really cool battle that isn’t just a poorly lit fight scene between a cgi lion and hyena, and isn’t two women testing physical strength, but rather both doing an explicitly feminine thing in making and showing dresses.

I really enjoyed how it somehow managed to both make her a fairy tale protagonist, (yes her mother was pushed of a cliff by Dalmatians, her mother had to die tragically because that’s how the fairy tale formula works, good mothers die early) and also still a black leather wearing, heachmen leading, badass who renames her house Hell Hall and herself ‘Devil” because the one thing this film absolutely does right is make sure she doesn’t believe she’s somehow morally superior, she knows she’s a villain, and if you believe she had good reason to be that‘s your own fault. (take notes edgy villain character study movies)

I completely understand that this film won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but all in all it was mine, 7/10.
