Speaking of fancasts since I saw your post with that HTTYD fancast that’s terribly generic: I saw this viral collage of Taylor Zakhar Perez and Sabrina Carpenter as Flynn and Rapunzel and as someone who witnessed the entire discourse of Avantika getting racially motivated harassment from a fancast, it’s really suspicious to me that TZP, a brown skinned Latino man is an okay fancast for Flynn but not a brown skinned Indian woman 🤨
We can't let a brown actress play a princess but are totally okay with casting a brown actor to play a thief.
This brings back when these designs of Flynn were considered before getting the one we got and were criticized because of the "romani bandit" stereotype.
The "Rapunzel is german" argument is mute because they wanted non german actors to play the character. Most of Disney's fairy tale films all take place in a vaguely medieval setting that in the Little Mermaid, Eric's kingdom takes place in a tropical setting as shown by palm trees in the background, indicating a tropical European location like somewhere in the Mediterranean Sea yet people think it takes place in Denmark because the original fairy tale was written by a Danish closeted author.
Rapunzel wasn't even blonde, she's a natural brunet who turned blonde because of the flower's magic. The casting of a brown actress to play Rapunzel would be fine since she would still be blonde either dying or wigs because that's the character's signature trait.
I genuinely care very little of the live action Tangled at the moment since it's just announced with the guy who made Greatest Showman to direct and that casting hasn't been done yet.
But if Disney were to commit to an Indian take on Rapunzel, make the cast and setting Indian. A minor gripe I had with the live action Aladdin is that they could've went full Bollywood but didn't, so might as well make Tangled into a fantastical film.
While we at it, why not cast Flynn as a woman just to spite the red pill chokers? Fem Flynn taking on a male thief persona to hide her identity would be a unique take for the character.
AHHH I absolutely loved this episode!!!
Rapunzel is so me!!!! honestly so is Eugene
But fr you ask me to explain who I am and physical things to represent them... can't do it. That was an assignment last year which was soooo difficult for me oof
Love to see Cassandra and Eugene getting along ugh <3
So proud of Eugene 😭 he's a grown man but he's like my baby I forever love him
I'm so glad that Rapunzel ended up painting the portrait herself, and with her mother in it. HEALING THOSE MOMMY ISSUES HELL YEAH
unrelated to the episode but I find it so funny that after her mommy issues are taken care of she instead gets daddy issues 💀 mainly showed in before ever after but still
💜Ep 4 will be posted shortly! 💜
There's no reason for any character to be a cop like was Nancy Drew a cop? Naur she was just nosy as hell and I respect that
im gonna cry. i am visiting this when i get home tonight. immediately. i know what im doing with my island when i restart it now
welcome to Sundrop, a Disney's Tangled inspired island ✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
DA-9633-8323-5889
the kingdom is celebrating the long-lost princess' birthday and the king and queen invite you to join them in releasing lanterns in the sky tonight in hopes that their beloved daughter, Rapunzel, will return.
but first, adventure through the forest where many secrets lay hidden; whether it be the healing flower whose power lies within a single drop of sunlight, a terrifying tavern filled with (dreaming) ruffians and thugs, or even a mysterious tower, perhaps, tucked deep within its woods. though, I wonder who might reside in it...
✧・゚: * extra info to know before you dream below!
there is a present for you at the entrance!
flynn's house (aka the snuggly duckling) is the only decorated--and accessible--house
pretend nook's does not exist, i hid it away on a beach that you cannot access
speaking of beaches, don't try to go on any beaches--you won't be able to
no ladder needed! there are vines and ladder kits on cliffs for you to make your way around the island & castle town!
i recommend going to the left side of the island, or the forest, first before heading to the right side in order for the lanterns to shine as bright as they can when night truly hits the island & castle town area!
in fact, if you really want to see the lanterns at their best (like in the above pictures), you could wait/put switch in sleep mode (lol) until it gets dark. this is only because it takes some time for it to get dark & i wanted enough light for you to see rapunzel's tower while it was still lighter out beforehand hehe; this would probably be about 20-30 minutes
and lastly, definitely use the camera trick to get the most out of the several lookout points on the island :)
have fun & i hope you enjoy!! <3
we need to make using chatgpt embarrassing bc sorry it really is. what do you mean you can’t write an email
last night was fairly productive! i actually got through the whole script and found a snippet for each character with a speaking role, so that's good. plus my math teacher responded to my email and changed my grade for something that was a 0 😎 (although the 0 was bc i hadn't started it yet so i did it during his class and then just emailed him after saying i had done it, so with a little charm, kindness, and gaslighting i do not have a 0)
but on the not-so-bright side, i ate two slices of a papa johns pizza last night so the gluten-free gods have cursed me and my stomach is killing me. it feels like my period cramps but im not bleeding? im just gonna wear a pad today in case bc if i start bleeding at the renaissance fair or when babysitting three children then i will burn down the neighborhood. arson!
my friend was sitting next to me when our friend group went to go see Barbie and she turned to me really excited and was like "omg that's so true! that's literally me! i have watched that pride and prejudice so many times!"
#I have never felt more represented
it's so wild to me that you absolutely cannot force a hyperfixation to happen. like you'll watch the most perfectly tailor-made-for-you content that everyone says you'll love and feel absolutely nothing, and then the thing you watch on a whim to fill time will reach through the screen and put its damn fingers in your brain and start rearranging the neurons right in front of you and every single time you're like THIS??? THIS??????? and this happens like every 6-12 months forever
hi! i post about my favorite media but there's too many to list...you'll catch on :)
