Top 10 Current Favorite Movies Tag

@smalltownfae tagged me, thanks a lot! Here we go:

1.Everything Everywhere All At Once

An awesome movie about the multiverse! There's a lot of representation, it's funny, there are many cinematic references... I think it's among my favorite movies, period (not only current ones).

2.Le Pharaon, le Sauvage et la Princesse (The Black Pharaoh, the Savage and the Princess)

It's a French animated movie. There are three different stories, all with different animation styles. The first one takes place in Ancient Egypt (it's my favorite one), the second one in Auvergne and the third one is a 1001 Nights tale. The movie maker, Michel Ocelot, is mostly known for Kirikou. This one was lovely as well.

3.Le Petit Nicolas : qu'est-ce qu'on attend pour être heureux ? (Little Nicholas : Happy as Can Be)

Another French animated movie. It's about Le Petit Nicolas, a French book series, and its two creators: Sempé and Goscinny. This movie is very creative, with the character directly speaking to his makers. It's an ode to writing, drawing, and being creative.

4.Les Cinq Diables (The Five Devils)

Another French movie! Its genre is fantastical, which is quite rare for French movies. Also, the main character is a Black little girl and two lesbians are main characters as well. It's the story of a girl who can travel in time with her magical powers. I don't wanna spoil it but I liked it a lot.

5.Nope

Jordan Peele's last movie. I see it as a metaphor of cinema itself. It was very well filmed and I loved the characters, especially Emerald (I'm a little bit in love, not gonna lie).

6.Cyrano

This movie doesn't have a very good reputation but I felt like it was nice? Also, it's a musical. I really like the original play, and I felt like it was a nice adaptation.

7.Edmond

A movie about the author of Cyrano de Bergerac, Edmond de Rostand. I've also seen the play "Edmond" recently. It's a very nice movie, especially if you like Cyrano.

8. Encanto

No, my brainrot about this movie isn't totally over yet. I've re-watched it some days ago and I still love it as much. And of course I cried at the reconciliation scene.

9. Coco

Rewatching Encanto made me wanna rewatch Coco. Also, it's nearly Halloween/Dias of los Muertos, so I wanted to get into the mood. I especially like the songs (I try to learn "Un poco loco" and this version of "La Llorona" at the ukulele!)

10. Interview With The Vampire

Another Halloween movie! Also, I'm in a Anne Rice mood these days because of the TV show. And now, this movie is on Netflix, so... I still love it a lot.

Bonus: Woman King

I've forgotten to add it to the list, but I've absolutely loved this movie!! A great celebration of the story of these courageous African women.

And that's my 10 current favorite movies. I'll tag @dagss , @kabbal , @riiversndroads and whoever wants to do it!

You know one of the craziest things that ever happens in Ninjago is Lloyd's Whole Situation. Like.

For the first few seasons he's this bratty small child with major daddy AND mommy issues and causes petty problems everywhere that he possibly can that only ends up evolving into worse problems (also has a bowl cut)

Then after he learns he's the legendary Green Ninja and practically gives up his entire childhood, skipping right into his teens. And still has a bowl cut (I think), still has daddy issues and sort of mommy issues, that goes away and comes back quite a few times and he thinks he's lost his dad forever.

And then, grows up just a few years more, is this wonderfully handsome (PLATONICALLY) and lovely honorbound ninja that wants to do good and is the leader of the ninja with green eyes, his daddy issues returning again because a girl he liked broke his heart and used him.

And now here we are after the Oni, after Seasons 11-15, at Dragons Rising. And Lloyd is grown grown. From being such a small kid that has already been through a lot and not knowing he'll be going through even more by the time he grows up, to a whole freaking teacher and adopting kids of his own and wou g h

It's such an insane character growth. An insane thing to just. Witness and experience to happen to a character. Like anyone else have any thoughts about that???

#even before when zane was my favorite i still thought about this a LOT. #now i dont know who my favorite is but. the leader typed always get to me #ninjago #lego ninjago #ninjago dragons rising #dragons rising #lloyd garmadon #ninjago lloyd #my stuff #oh. and dont even get me STARTED on his movie counterpart. #younger lloyd meeting current lloyd which just. y e ah #luescris

I was looking at Matpat pictures (as every normal person does) and I saw some pictures of him with glasses right, so I was thinking, “ness with glasses would be cute”. BUT THEN- I THOUGHT, “NESS WITH THESE GLASSES!”

(Idk if the photo will work or not but there circle glasses that are black and thin)

I haven't had inspiration to draw these two in a long time, but I'm an absolute sucker for circle glasses

#i have a pair of circle glasses and they're my favorite pair of glasses i ever owned #they're currently broken tho :( #BUT YES. #ness probably has an arrangement of different glasses #might as well make up for your lack of eye functionality with ✨style✨ #rambling #ask #fnaf #fnaf movie #ness the waiter #mike schmidt #securitywaiter #dreamtheory #my art #sketch

✨ 9 favorite films that i watched (for the first time) in 2023 ✨

tagged by @animusrox thank you so much!

this year i really focused on catching up with my watchlist rather than watching new stuff which is very different from my usual MO. i debated including 2023 releases in this as well since i watched so few but i decided to rather shout out more of the older movies instead.

Watched Marriage Story today, for the very first time, and had a lotta thoughts about EDTS Ice and Mav, especially their divorce-era. Wondered whether they would’ve genuinely gotten a divorce, if they’d somehow been married at that point. Charlie kinda reminded me of Ice: the benign belief in his own intellectual superiority, the self-pity, the willful blindness towards the reality of his relationship, the selfishness—not in the sense that Ice wasn’t kind or warm or loving, but in the sense that he really needed things to go his way (for them to not talk about anything). Of course Mav was no Nicole, he definitely shared his half of the blame, but I could totally imagine the two of ‘em having a huge fight that devolved into: “I can’t believe I have to know you … forever!” ‘Cause they kinda did: being in the Navy, moving around in the same circles, sharing an estranged kid they were both hoping to make-up with…

ok so part one of this ask not having seen marriage story: yeah i am 100% sure if they’d codified their relationship in words they would’ve broken up. like forever. letting all that anger simmer instead of boiling over is sometimes a blessing in disguise—if you say you’re together, you’re together. if you say you’re over, you’re over. no take-backsies on something like that. whereas if you don’t talk about any of it, the boundaries are a lot less definite. a blessing in disguise. i did (for mental torture purposes, and also for a prompt fill i [sorry to whomever sent it in] didnt hate myself enough to write) brainstorm that Bad Ending—if, say, Mav HAD been reckless and decisive and told ice “get the fuck out of my house obviously this isn’t gonna work you betrayed my trust & bailed on me at the second lowest moment of my life & conspired with a dying woman who is in love with you to ruin our son’s life in the exact same way MY life was once ruined and you blame me for turning you gay but you were already gay to begin with and You Fucking Killed My Best Friend And We Never Talk About It so fuck you we’re done” and went no-contact and threw ices shit out into the street and never went back to the hangar and changed all the locks and his phone number etc. and… say ice is like decimated for a few years straight, like numbingly and crushingly depressed, & then he meets not-his-sister-sarah and tells her the truth (that now he can realize with the benefit of hindsight & grief & loss—funny how loss always makes everything real clear all of a sudden): that he was in a long term relationship with a man with whom he was raising a child & with whom he was probably in love, and she marries him anyway, and obviously she’s not maverick and she doesn’t make him as happy as he did and she knows that but at least she stops him from being actively su*cidal and at least they can be open about their relationship in public and maybe they have a kid or two, and maybe he completely shifts his strategy and relocates to Virginia and moves his AOR to the atlantic instead of the pacific so he can get as far away from San Diego and maverick and home as possible, and maybe it works, and maybe there are some days he doesn’t even think about maverick or Bradley or goose, and when people mention the 1990s he grimaces and tries to forget, and he’s not ashamed of it so much as he is hurt by the memory of his own carelessness, and maybe he cries often and very very quietly, and maybe he gets his life back on track and before he knows it he has four stars on the opposite coast from the one he’d originally planned, and of course he’s not happy, but he’s never happy, so whatever.

Until. some event he can’t get out of. A mutual friend’s change of command ceremony or retirement ceremony or funeral. first thing he sees (like always) is captain Mitchell shining in his dress blues (like always). they avoid each other all evening, why bother trying? until someone forces them together, “weren’t you two at TOPGUN together? didn’t you guys kill all those soviets together?” and on and on, yes, we were, this is very very uncomfortable, until eventually they’re alone, and maverick asks, “can i buy you a drink sir?” but he’s staring at ice’s left hand and staring and staring, and it’s been over a decade but still ice doesn’t know how to say no to him, so they leave this joint and get a drink somewhere else, and maverick says, “how long have you been married,” and ice says, “eight years next march,” and you can see maverick doing the math in his head 2016-8=2008 okay, “what’s her name,” “sarah,” maverick laughs but feels bad for laughing, ice says, “we have a couple kids,” maverick stops laughing. “shit,” maverick says. ice says, “it was very difficult for me for a very long time;” maverick says, “what did you tell her;” ice says, “the truth;” maverick waits a second to respond and then says, “and what was the truth?” ice tells him the truth which is “well that i was in a long-term relationship with another man and we were raising a kid together and most likely we were in love with each other but it didn’t work out.” maverick takes a long time to respond to that and is blinking a lot and if you put your ear to his chest you’d hear that he is struggling to breathe. he says “and she married you anyway.” “she did.” he says “and You married Her anyway.” “i did.” Ice pauses then says “it was very difficult for me for a very long time.” he pauses some more and drinks and watches disinterestedly as maverick blinks and blinks. then ice says “so uh are you…?” maverick says “ive had a couple… a couple flings… nothing. nothing like.” and ice understands. maverick says, “why didn’t you tell me?” “tell you what?” “that you. that you and i were. that you felt that way about me.” ice says, “i did. i tried. i left you voicemails & sent you postcards & tried for half a decade to get in touch with the kid. did you not get my—did you not get my voicemails or my letters?” maverick blinks and blinks and says “i did get them but i didn’t open them;” ice says “well that’s that then.” and drinks. maverick says “how long after me did you meet her;” ice says “a couple years, i was deployed for O.I.F.” maverick says, “yeah, me too.” and he almost starts crying. he says “ice I’m sorry but you’re telling me ive completely wasted the last decade of my life and i don’t know what to do. do you love her? does she make you happy?” ice says “yes” and “yes.” maverick says “does she make you as happy as you were with me?” ice doesn’t care enough anymore to be dishonest and says “no. Of course not. but she made life easier when it was very difficult for me for a very long time.” maverick says, “run away with me. fuck it. let’s try again. let’s start over. no one else understands. come on. you and me. we always come back to each other. let’s try again.” and it is very very tempting. One of those watershed moments when life goes crystal clear and you can see through it. but only for a moment. ice is so tired and too old for that kind of adventure anymore. he says, i have kids, and i have a wife, and i have the navy and my four stars to think of, and i— he can be honest about this: “i want to. you know i do.” he pauses. doesn’t think he wants maverick to touch him. that can’t possibly end well and historically has not ended well. flinches away when maverick reaches out. he says “but i can’t.” maverick says, “i miss you more than anything. i want—even still!—i—please…I can’t…” another pause. ice says, “Let me get the bill, Mav.” so ice pays mavericks tab and they go their separate ways.

and maverick goes out to the desert to fly the sr-72 darkstar and pushes it beyond its limits on purpose and he doesn’t intend to survive but it’s his stupid too-good instincts that have him popping the cockpit escape pod ejection handle, and he lives by accident, like always, and destroys several billion taxpayer dollars in an instant, and without admiral Kazansky on his six backing him up admiral Cain has everything he needs to dishonorably discharge captain mitchell from the navy, so after 33 years of service to his country and 3 air to air kills maverick is unceremoniously dishonorably discharged and they kick him out without a second thought, and the Dagger special mission command goes to someone else and Bradley gets team leader and probably fails and probably dies, and atlantic fleet commander Tom Kazansky is offered the promotion to chief of naval operations and takes it, and doesn’t live long enough to meet his grandchildren, and that’s about all i have to say about that.

Now im going to go watch marriage story to answer this ask educatedly so hold on.

ok coming back the next day post marriage story and yeah you’re right i think it would look like that
