"It's more a story with a ghost in it. The ghost is just a metaphor."

"A metaphor?"

"For the past."

I liked Guillermos take on Pinnochio.

For the Blue Fairy its a mixture of the Fae and a Biblical accurate angel who gives life to a wooden figure that she name Pinnochio since he was made from pine wood.

This version of Pinnochio is based on a toddler who knows nothing about the dangers and "common sense" of the world. So he easily falls into dangerous situations and blindly falls for the manipulations told from adults.

He also includes Death who is sister to the Blue Fairy who says he is immortal and each time he would have died he stays in the underworld with her a little longer every time before he goes back. I like this because its her way of showing Pinnochio to not take life for granted. Since he is immortal he doesn't appreciate the life he wasn't suppose to have and doesn't realize that being immortal is really a curse instead of a blessing.

At the end when they escape fron the whale/dogfish he dies again but his father is left drowning. He pleads to go back to save him but she says if he goes back so soon he would lose his immortality and be mortal. He says ok and saves him at the cost of his life.

The Blue Fairy comes again and says she only wanted to give joy by making Pinnochio alive to which he says it was joy that came with great sorrow now that he is gone. The Cricket tells her to bring him back alive since she promised him a wish if he made Pinnochio a good boy and him saving his father at the cost of his life shows he was. To which she agrees and bring him back not as real boy but as the living wooden figure he was.

Guillermos take on this scene was to show he didnt have to be a human to be a real good boy. To be human you just have to be a good person not actually a human. Since he shows characters who were humans but they were the actual inhuman monsters in this story.

Watching Pacific Rim for the one millionth time and I'm thinking about that Fight Scene. About the moments before. We see Mako's shirt folded perfectly and laid out beside the mat. I'm thinking about her carefully, expertly taking it off- taking extra care to be so precise. Thinking about Raleigh watching her do this; watching her not as A Woman Undressing but as an opponent discarding her Armour. What must he have thought of her in those few moments?

Also, tangentially related, I love how Mako dresses when she's not In Uniform; that cute little sweater. The calligraphy pinned up next to the mech blue prints. I wish this movie were 10 hours longer just so we could spend more time with her (and Raleigh) exploring their characters and relationships.

#sour speaks #pacific rim #Guillermo del Torro really does a fantastic job cramming everything full of meaning #theres no wasted space

Walt Disneys Pinocchio (1940) is a showcase of a fairly new medium telling fairly simple story in a beautiful way

Guillermo Del Torros Pinocchio (2022) is the showcase of a neglected medium taking a look at that seemingly simple story and looking at the complexities in a beautiful way

.....I love both of these films . Both film are a showcase of the beauty of animation and both tell a beautiful tale

The thing is, Disney's Pinocchio gave me nightmares so I haven't watched it in years but I love del Toro's movie so much, even though it's objectively heavier. I don't know, the Disney one still feels me with such gloom while the new one feels bitter sweet.

#artistically speaking the del torro one is closer to my comfort as well i guess #and thematically if that makes sense #pinocchio #guillermo del toro's pinocchio #stavro has a thought

experiencing an emotion called: BITE

#if i bit into something and tore it apart with my teeth it would fix me rn #like. someones throat #or maybe those silicon torsos they use to test weapons #u know. the Guillermo del torro ones #orrr. like a glow stick. would also help #woes of emily #ask to tag #part of this is depression and frustration #and part of it is being actually genuinely hungry for the first time in 3 days #which. well maybe the depression was a part of that one too

CRIMSON PEAK (2015) dir. Guillermo del Torro

[wolfsbanesparks]

I'm currently at the dentist's office right now but I really wanted to discuss this idea with you.

So, the wizard, right? Shazam, the one who gave Billy Batson his magical powers through the living lighting. Dies and crumbles to dust after doing so/is squashed by the rock of Eternity, aka, a literal rock hanging over his head (idk why the writers decided on that).

I had an idea for his appearance/a different version of him. What if after centuries of searching for a champion of magic to replace him and Black Adam, he begins turning to stone, partly to due time and a curse from the mother of his children for abandoning them. He eventually becomes the rock of Eternity itself. His skin and blood turned to stone, unable to leave the place he's been in for centuries, stuck to his throne. There are cracks in his skin that glow underneath with the living lightning that is desperate to get out, evident most in his eyes that eerily glisten with the light inside. His staff is forged to his hand, slowly cracking apart with age.

When he grants Billy his powers, Shazam's body of stone turns to ash and dust, exploding in a burst from the living lightning zapping out of him and hitting Billy with the transformation magic to turn him into Captain Marvel.

Imagine the wood spirit from the Guillermo Del Torro Pinocchio movie, unnatural looking and very mystical. Trying to draw out this concept, but wanted to know what you think. I just thought that shazam looking like a regular old man after being thousands of years old didn't have to be the norm.

This is honestly such a hauntingly cool visual. It definitely would have added an extra layer of creepy surrealism to the moment that Billy is granted his powers that I can totally get behind.

I also really like the idea that he'd been cursed. It would be an interesting reason for why he gave Billy his powers so young--he had to do it before the curse ran its course. Otherwise Billy would have been granted his powers as either an older teenager or a young adult. Like he was always going to be Captain Marvel, but he wasn’t supposed to be a little kid when it happened.

I think this would work especially well for the version of Shazam that was once the Champion himself. Like he has the living lightning inside him, glowing through the cracks in his stone skin and particularly bright around his eyes, and he literally passes it on to Billy even though he knows it will kill him.

(Also I don't really know why the original Shazam was crushed by that giant rock but I think it had something to do with accepting his fate? Don't quote me on that though, it was an odd decision either way)

#ask me whatever you want y'all #shazam #billy batson #dc captain marvel #i love this visual #its creepy and captivating #he becomes one with the rock of eternity and thats why his spirit is still there
