Lads, Queens and my sweet Queers! I ask for your help!

Pls suggest some feel-good, light series. I liked Ted Lasso and Derry Girls, and obv B99, The Good Place, Superstore, and Schitts Creek. I just can't seem to find anything else coming as close to the high standards they have left with me, and it breaks my heart :"(

P.s. No, I'm not going to watch some "actual cinema" where I can't even see shit on the fucking screen! I simply refuse to. I watched Black Mirror, Peaky Blinders, Stranger Things and Dark in a single go and it fucked my eyes and ears up. I liked them but ig I've had enough of it for a couple of lifetimes, now.

Pls help me, I'll cry.

Talking about Nicholas Galitzine, I suggest you to watch HANDSOME DEVIL, 2016, where he play a closeted gay rugby star going in a all-boys boarding school and there suddenly sharing a room with a boy bullyed for being gay.

It's a nice movie (that Netflix tragically put down, but that you can for now also find here on you tube).

Here the link. You're welcome.

Hey hope you're well. Do you have any book recs with female characters reinventing themselves, or coming back stronger? Something along those lines, ifykwim.

Also movie recs, if you can.

Have a good day.

Hi love!

Books that come to mind:

Untamed by Glennon Doyle

City of Girls by Elizabeth Gilbert

The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion

Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman

Educated by Tara Westover

Wild by Cheryl Strayed 

Movies that come to mind:

The Devil Wears Prada (also a book but I just love Meryl Streep in the movie too much to not recommend this one!)

Legally Blonde (another classic everyone should be able to reference off-hand!)

The First Wives Club

P.S. I Love You

Easy A

Bridesmaids

** Firefly Lane is a great Netflix show in a similar genre

Hope this helps xx

I just saw Barbie and that's your problem now (spoilers)

Dude. I. What the fuck (positive)

I just saw Barbie and bloody hell how did this movie ever get approved by Mattel (positive)

SPOILERS. LOOK AWAY IF YOU DON'T WANT SPOILERS. KEEP SCROLLING IF YOU WISH FOR THIS MOVIE TO REMAIN UNSPOILED.

For contex, "Barbie" singular refers to margot robbie, the main character. "barbies" plural refers to background/side characters. I understand why this movie broke ryan gosling.

Ok play by play:

I walk into the theatre, popcorn in hand. The isles are filled with pink. I am wearing pink. the lights dim. Its showtime

Primitive children play with primitive dolls. barbie appears. i wonder if David Attenborough directed this part of the movie

Present day barbie. Stuff from the trailers. hi barbie hi barbie hi barbie. Oh wait the song is the narrator that kinda cool

5 minutes in and its Trailers trailers trailers. I've seen maybe 5 lines of non-trailer dialogue

The "beach you off" joke goes right over my head. I still don't know if there was a joke there

dance time. holy shit the mood of summer (do you ever think about dying) happend real fast. Nice save Barbie

sour milk and flat feet

jesus christ we're at weird barbie's already. this is the plot I know from the trailers but we still have like an hour and 20 minutes left

Weird barbie made a dick joke. The theater erupts. they were not expecting that.

don't laugh at the sex joke don't laugh at the sex joke you are with your parents don't laugh at the sex joke.

Mmmmmk barbie in the real world. The undertone of violence during catcalling is addressed. yay!

Barbie loudly and bluntly announces that she does not have a vagina and that ken does not have a penis. They do not have genitals. The crowd goes wild. They expected that less.

In the spen of 2 minutes Barbie gets arrested. barbie gets objectified by police officers. Barbie gets the cowgirl suit. barbie gets arrested. Barbie gets objectified by police officers. Barbie gets released by police officers

barbie has meditation time and discovers the girl

ken takes a walk and discovers that the world is run by men

barbie and ken go to school. Barbie gets burned roasted eviscerated by sara (the girl whos been playing with her) and runs away crying. Ken discovers the patriarchy

Barbie gets discovered by mattel. Barbie gets chased through mattel HQ

The girl and her mom save barbie and go back to barbie land. it was actually the mom who played with barbie and made her because she was sad about her daughter being a dicky teenager.

ken has taken over barbie land

ken has instated the patriarchy into barbie land. the barbies are brainwashed into being mindless servants. the dreamhouses are now for the kens.

Barbie has a breakdown. Mom daughter go to leave barbie land

Barbie is rescued by weird barbie and taken to her house, the base of a resistance??? other brainwashed barbies are there. Weird barbie now wears grenades. Discontinued barbies and weird barbies are trying to unbrainwash brainwashed barbies. It is not working. Barbie is still having a breakdown.

Gay as hell ken exists

Mom and daughter are back. Barbie cries about how she isnt pretty and "stereotypical barbie" anymore. The air is thick and uncomfortable. The narrator announces that margot robbie was not the right person to deliver that line. tension dissolved (for now)

Mom goes into long and heartfelt rant about the patriarchy and expectations of women and jesus christ is rocked me to my core it was like every feminist tumblr post compiled into the perfect monologue about the struggles of being a woman in the best way possible. I can feel the uncomfortable men in the room. I can also feel the men in the room who are sad for women. you could hear a pin drop. The barbies become unbrainwashed as they realize the patriarchy sucks. Barbie is back.

Barbie and friends have mom give more (unheard ;-;) speeches and unbrainwash the other barbies in a way that calls out how men view women and sexist media tropes.

Holly shit is ken the villain of this movie

Barbies turn kens against each other so they forget about voting to change the constitution. Yes.

Kens have a war over barbies. They do not have weapons. Ryan gosling sings a power ballad. The kens unite.

The kens confront the barbies. President barbie drops a motherfucker bomb censored with a mattel logo. The crowd once again goes wild. Some of us go feral. I went feral.

Lost of deep conversations about the patchirarchy and sexisim and beuty standards and holly shit I though this was going to be a kids film but its almost unhinged kiss me greta gerwig

A Barbie and ken romance is not the answer for barbie or ken. Ken cannot compute this. A Barbie and ken romance is not the answer for Barbie or ken. Ken slightly computes this.

Barbie tells ken that he's his own person and he is not defined by his girlfriend or the patriarchy or beach (his job. no there is not context). cough cough this is the movie addressing toxic masculinity and how the patriarchy harms men

Barbie does not know her ending. Barbie meets Ruth Mattel. Ruth mattel is in trouble with the IRS for committing tax evasion. deep emotional scene. barbie learns sees what it means to be human. that billie eyelash song plays. Humans only have one ending, ideas live forever. Barbie "wants to be part of the people who make ideas, not the idea"

Barbie is in a car. Beige suit. Pink Birkenstocks. The mom and the girl wish her good luck. They will be here when she's done. Barbie walks into an office building.

"name"

"handler comma Barbra" (context required but its meaningful and basically barbies human name)

"why are you here"

"I'm here to see my gynecologist"

The end. The crowd goes feral. nobody moves as we wonder what the fuck just happened. We cheer.

Being the true Margot Robbie Stan that I am, I rise from my seat and think "what a ride"

I exit the theatre, grinning ear to ear. Perplexed. But grinning ear to ear. I do not stop grinning for a long time.

As I exit the theatre, me and my fellow movie-goers look at each other with a sense of fear, happiness, and that feeling when you wake up from a fever dream. I doubt I will sleep tonight as my brain processes this movie. I still don't really know what happened to Barbie. I'm perfectly ok with that.

Overall the trailers greatly mislead people and this movie was a wild feminist, feminist, feminist ride in the most fantabulous way possible. It touches on most social issues, makes fucking hilarious jokes, Barbie has several breakdowns and it truly feels like a giant "fuck you" to the patriarchy with Mattel's branding. Written by women, directed by women, produced by women. its perfect. It's not the most sophisticated piece of feminist media but its pretty fucking close and definitely the best mainstream one.

Hating the Barbie movie should replace hating cats as a red flag.

I loved it and I'm still processing it but it was great. Also how was something like this allowed to happen in hollywood. I don't care. it happened and It was perfect. I loved it and I'm making plans to see it again.

The Evolution of Slam Dunk: From Anime to Personal Passion Project

As a child, after finishing school for the day, I would switch on MBC3, a television channel that aired anime. I'd gather with my cousins and we'd watch anime during our pastime together. Among the popular shows like Dragon Ball Z, Beyblade, Sailor Moon, and Yu-Gi-Oh, one that stands out in my memory is Slam Dunk.

The anime adaptation of Slam Dunk ran for 101 episodes, which were based on the manga series written and illustrated by Takehiko Inoue from 1990 to 1996. The story's narratives revolves around Hanamichi Sakuragi, who develops feelings for a girl named Haruko Akagi. Sakuragi decides to join the Shohuku High School Basket Team in an attempt to win her affections.

Slam Dunk first volume manga cover, featuring Hanamichi Sakuragi (redesigned)

The First Slam Dunk (2022): An Overview

Takehiko Inoue took on the roles of both screenwriter and director for the First Slam Dunk movie, making it a personal passion project. The film picks up where the anime left off, after the climactic match between Shohoku and the Shoyo and Ryonan teams combined. However, rather than focusing on Hanamichi Sakuragi, the protagonist of the original story, the movie shifts its focus to Ryota Miyagi. It follows Miyagi's journey as he navigates the world of basketball, his relationships within the team, and his own personal growth.

The Establishing Shot

The movie opens with a scene of Ryota engaged in a one-on-one basketball match with his older brother, Shota Miyagi, on a court. The opening scene effectively sets the tone for the film by showcasing the close bond between Ryota and his brother, and illustrates their deep connection to basketball. Despite the scene's initial brightness and joy, it carries a sense of foreboding, hinting at the tragedy to come: Shota's unexpected death.

Following this loss, the movie delves into Ryota's journey of grief and his determination to honor his brother's memory by pursuing basketball.

Throughout the film, we see present-day or specifically courtside scenes intercut with flashbacks to Ryota's childhood, which is heavy with the weight of processing grief. This storytelling technique slows the pace of the film, allowing the emotional impact to unfold and resonate with viewers.

The Film's Animation

Inoue wanted the movie to capture the essence of the manga, so he chose a light and muted color palette. The film combined 3D CG imagery for basketball scenes mixed with traditional hand-drawn 2D animation for everyday life scenes. Personally, I believe Inoue achieved his goals because as I watched the movie, it felt like the manga illustrations were coming alive. I particularly enjoyed the "watercolor" effect created by the sharp outlines around the characters, and the soft, layered colors.

Lessons Learnt from Shota Miyagi

"I’m always like this too, my heart pounds like crazy. That’s why… I have to pretend that I’m fine."

In the opening scene, at the basketball court, Shota is not only teaching Ryota how to play basketball but also valuable life lessons about strength and resilience. In the scenes leading up to this, we witness Shota processing with the loss of his father while also being a support for his mother. Despite his own grief, Shota bravely declares to his mother that he will take on the responsibility of being the head of the household. This display of strength and determination resonates deeply, almost as if Shota is speaking directly to the audience (breaking the fourth wall), urging them to remain steadfast in the face of adversity. His courage serves as an inspiring reminder to stay strong during trying times, no matter how challenging they may seem.

Final Thoughts

"The First Slam Dunk" stands out from other sports and action anime or movies by taking viewers on a journey from pain and trauma to resilience and strength. It blends fast-paced basketball scenes with slow flashbacks, creating tension and anticipation that keeps viewers engaged. When I watched the film in the cinema, I felt inspired and motivated—it made me want to start drawing in my sketchbook right then and there. The movie left a strong impression on me and remains my biggest inspiration for improving my artwork.

It was incredible to see how the narrative shifted from focusing solely on sports and romance in the anime adaptation I watched as a child to a more personal and meaningful message in the movie years later. As the title suggests, Inoue intended for both familiar and unfamiliar audiences to experience it as though it were their first time watching, establishing a different perspective and impact.

As the only Gen Z surrounding by millennials siblings, I love to teased them about their favourites movies being old, I even called some of them ancient like clueless, and the legend of zoro. I really enjoying watching their soul leave their body whenever I pointed out that most of their favourites movies are around 18 years to 20 years old. So, as a Millennials, I just wanna ask you, am I the devil? 😂😂

Heck, even though it surprises me sometimes how old I've gotten and how quickly time has flown by, it doesn't bother me to realize that I and the things I love from my younger years have gotten old. It's true that I have aged (like every human being is supposed to do), but I am still fantastic (perhaps more so than I was when I was younger and an idiot less wise) and so are those awesome, "ancient" things from 20-25 years ago!

I don't think you're the devil for pointing out an honest truth; tell your siblings they need to calm down and enjoy the fact that they grew up watching amazing stuff!

While we're at it, here are just a FEW OLD 1990s Movies That You Gen-Z Kids Should Totally Check Out If You Haven't Already:

Titanic (yes, with Leo DiCaprio)

Men In Black (the first one)

The Mummy (see what all the fuss over that dude Brendan Fraser is about)

Speed (if you think Keanu Reeves is hot as John Wick, WELL.)

Addams Family Values (psst, all you fans of Wednesday!)

Legends of the Fall (maybe you'll finally "get" Brad Pitt)

Interview with the Vampire (another OG that will never be beat)

...and many, many more!! The 90s were a treasure trove!!!

And remember--be nice to your elders! You'll be in our place soon enough! ;)
