I feel like we give so much (very well-deserved) praise to Michael Sheen and David Tennant for their excellent portrayals of each other in Good Omens season 1 episode 6, but I also feel like there is not NEARLY enough praise for Miranda Richardson who FLAWLESSLY played both Aziraphale and Madame Tracy in the same body and switched back and forth like it was NOTHING like get you a woman who can do BOTH

Just legit teared up thinking about a Chrissy Cunningham who survived and learned to have a healthy relationship to food. Chrissy getting softer and rounder and getting to be any size and feeling safe in her body. Feeling Eddie touch and cuddle her without feeling like she’s a stranger in her body. Fuck.

Luna was introduced at the perfect time in Harry's life.
5th year, Harry was experiencing a profound loneliness. The public and his peers were against him. They called him a liar, blamed him for the resurgence of Voldemort, and ostracized him from the place he had come to consider his home.
He felt hurt by his friends, who hadn't been responding to his letters, and by Dumbledore, who had effectively left him alone that summer to deal with the Dursley's and the attack on him and Dudley alone.
So, going back to Hogwarts, he was disillusioned. Jaded. He was still irritated with everyone, even after Hermione and Ron apologized and explained why they couldn't owl him back.
And, at a time as vulnerable as that, he meets Luna Lovegood. A fellow outcast. She goes to show him the beauty of being alone and demonstrates how euphoric living can be when you aren't constantly seeking out the approval of others.
Most importantly, she was everything weird about the Wizarding World rolled into one. It almost felt like being a kid again.
She is a reminder to both Harry and to the reader that, through all the bad, both experienced and soon to come, good will always prevail. Because magic doesn't have to bring pain. It can bring whimsy, and fun, and it can be an expression of joy.

So since the Princess Peach showtime render change I’ve seen a sudden abundance of hate towards movie Peach for ‘ruining’ the original Peach. And while I’m not happy about the change either can we maybe leave the movie version alone and stop acting like she was so terrible?
Like come on look at that face
