Is that really what the animation looks like?

[queenslayerbee]

I only read the comic very recently, because I had it already and some friends wanted to watch the film (those plans never went through). I loved the comic. Only then I saw the first gifs on tumblr... and the animation style alone put me off. I just really digged the comic's.

But I might've eventually built up the desire to watch it if I hadn't seen commentary like this. I just like what I like lol.

Was gingerhaze involved in the show?

[(Anonymous)]

(Sorry idk if they still go by gingerhaze and idk their "real" name.)

I remember them talking about how they had complicated feelings about the comic and if they were to do it again they would change a lot. So I'm wondering if the changes were direct from the creator or just general changes for a different/new audience?

[deleted_scenes]

I never picked up the comic because the art didn't appeal to me.

Loved the movie though.

"Wouldn't it be great if the queers suffered more?"

[(Anonymous)]

Never read the comic but I missed Ambrosius's lustrous locks.

[(Anonymous)]

man, I never finished the comic, and I loved the movie, but ngl the difference was staggering. like, Ambrosius is supposed to be this cartoony bad and annoying guy, and instead he's like a dreamy paladin.
BUT ngl I really loved the reveal of them being gay and in love from the start. yeah, it's way different from the original, but now I realize how much I would love more LGBT stuff like this - where being queer is not the point of the story, well, not literally lol.
anyway yeah, I completely agree with the secret, but idk, it's not a bad thing and I'm glad this movie exists.

Nimona herself was the worst part of the movie for me. All her dialogue and body language was so "How do you do, fellow Hip Teens?"

I'm finding this secret rather endearing, because I have things that I find equally baffling in terms of my brain being like "this is fine" versus "what even is that, ack!"

And it's often just this arbitrary, like being used to one set of silly hairdos and bugged by a different kind. Or foreign, historcal mustache customs. Or ... yeah. Sometimes it gets a lot better when I understand why something was a thing, like when I understood that the combination of ponytails and shaved-head-parts with samurai had to do with attaching their warrior helmets. (And probably with not overheating inside them.)

Other times, nah. Brain just insists on liking what it likes and not what it doesn't, and I leave it be.

From what I've seen of a Korean historian talking about a few costume K-dramas, they mostly aren't accurate but they are aping the time period so that people will know it's 'old'. So like the general look is correct, but the colours, fit, styles, are what varies between the decades and that is rarely depicted 100% accurately.

It's more an aesthetic than being truly accurate most of the time I think.

[(Anonymous)]

the hats are definitely accurate and the blue and white hanbok is spot on. garish is...sort of typical for court dress of any eastern Asian culture. girl in the middle though? the Joseon court did not have Elizabethan tailors, get outta here.

so yeah, it's mosly accurate (and arguably moreso than cdrama fantasy wear - those are glorious but they're fantasy, not historical) but as anon above me said, sometimes accurate is off-putting. I would much rather indulge in the Samurai Warriors (Musou) costumes than real chonmage hairstyles, I would much rather cute sexy little hats than accurate Han court hats, etc. Depends on the context; if the movie/tv series is purporting to be a faithful dramatisation of a historical event, then give me all the accuracy. Soap operaswith magic? Nah go ham on the fantasy, it's fine.

[(Anonymous)]

If there is anything I've learned, it's that every culture has a plethora of really dumb hats throughout their history. Especially uniform hats. Some still do, in fact.

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's just what you're used to. I watch Kdramas all the time, and I had similar reactions to yours when I was recommended Cdramas.

Well, yeah. It might be difficult for some to believe that Ezra Miller's behavior might significantly damage the movie's chances at the box office because historically, bad behavior from a white male lead isn't the dealbreaker that fandom or the internet believes it should be. I'm not saying that's right, just that when people get alarmed or upset about the problematic nature of a piece of media, they don't always realize that there are a lot of people who 1) haven't heard and/or 2) don't care, because they're outside of fandom or social media.

I don't agree, and I think it's a wise choice to keep it to yourself, but I guess I support you?

Does no one remember how much merchandise Frozen had when it first came out? Disney movies always get a huge deluge of merch when the movie is first released and then it tapers off after a while. This isn't any exception to that.

No spoilers in this comment, but I would expect spoilers below.

Has anyone watched it, like or dislike? Anyone who was just a casual fan? I was a superfan, but the whole season left me kind of meh. All the other superfans seemed to have loved it.
