#also remember when I drew astrid fat once and brought this opinion up and people said i was 'skinny shaming' LMAOOOOOO🤡

FULL offense but Dreamworks was a giant pile of cowardly dog poo for making most of the female background characters in HTTYD large and buff women, quite explicitly stated in canon multiple times that in Berk culture being large and buff was the beauty standard, and yet made all the main female roles with substantial dialogue and relevance to the plot thin. Like a few would be understandable (Valka only, i mean she was a societal outcast like hiccup), but i guess we gotta make them, y'know, """"sexy"""" for the modern audience, but pretty much all of them?? At least in the movies??? Dreamworks remake HTTYD movies with Astrid big and buff like her parents and society challenge 🔪🔪🔪

#funky's personal tag #sorry if this rubs anyone the wrong--you know what????!!!? Nah i'm not sorry #I'm rewatching httyd1 and my ONLY complaint is this #like why? #Oh i know #modern day beauty standards #Anyway I'm not actually complaining about Astrid's design like I do like it it just doesn't fit with the story and worldbuilding that #dreamworks created and it SHOWS #Lazy worldbuilding and a cop out in my opinion #also remember when I drew astrid fat once and brought this opinion up and people said i was 'skinny shaming' LMAOOOOOO🤡 #not deleting this i'll die on this hill #sorry i just get really fired up when I think about how we could have had female leads that were large and buff and DESIRABLE #but no #dreamworks were cowards #especially since one of Astrid's original designs WAS large and buff #like we could have had it ALL~~
