Sky High Would Have Been a Much Better Movie if Will Stronghold Never Got His Powers

So either last year or the year before I rewatched Sky High with my best friend for his birthday. Last I’d seen it I was probably like 5. And it was a fun watch. I’m a sucker for mid-2000′s media, and Sky High is as mid as it gets. While we were riffing on every little detail (like how Zach, Ethan, and Magenta look like Danny, Tucker, and Sam from Danny Phantom) eventually we got to the point where Will gets his powers. And then it hit me: “Why?”

Will not having powers is a pretty big deal in the movie. Having powers is a BIG deal even this movie. Even seemingly useless ones like glowing or melting into a puddle separate you from the average everyday citizen. So much so there’s an entire floating high school made just to train up-and-coming heroes. One could argue that entrance to the school requires having powers, and Will shouldn’t be attending at all.

And I think the movie could have genuinely drove the “Anyone can be a hero” message a lot more, and played with Will’s character a bit more, if he didn’t eventually just get superpowers out of nowhere. It’s really weird he does at all, because Will goes from an underdog who has all this shame about not having powers, which has forced him to lie to his father and be an outcast in his school, to Superman almost immediately. And Will only really becomes a jerk because of these powers, abandoning his friends, only to redeem himself later because the situation calls for it.

I think, genuinely, the film could have been a lot better if Will just never got his superpowers, and he had to prove he could be a hero without them. Instead of using his super strength to throw around Royal Pain, he’d be helping to stop the school from crashing into the ground and standing up to her even when the odds are against him. All with the help of his fellow sidekick friends. It’d be easier for the viewer to relate to (don’t we all feel a little small compared to everyone else?) and have an overall more positive message. Otherwise, it’s really just the story of some privileged kid getting everything he wants, just a little later than he wanted.

Hi yes hello, this is a Tree post, and not a D post.

My own personal processors are telling me that no one likes me again. I am once again asking for your validation that you don't hate me please and thank you.

#i know its not true #like logically #but i am v much spiraling #and have been for a couple days #i feel like im trapped in my own skin #please give me validation

I am a little confused, though. because in Layton Mystery Tanteisha, Marina has these charms on her bag, and Layton surmises that Luke gave them to her to serve as a means of verification, if she ever needed to turn to Layton for help. He would know that she was truly Luke's wife, because each of the charms represents a case they solved together. The train is clearly the Molentary Express, representing the events surrounding the Elysian box, and the rabbit is Subject 3, representing the events surrounding Future Luke's letter. So what's the bow?

#professor layton #layton mystery tanteisha #luke triton #marina triton #like logically #i guess it's flora's hairtie #like going off of the context it has to be from st mystere #but the others are actual plot points that moved the needle #that's just... a fashion choice flora makes? #did he spend his entire gift budget on getting a charm specifically made to look like subject 3 #(cause there’s no way that’s not custom made subject 3 is not cute and would not be a wise investment of something to mass create) #and have none left for like…. a golden apple charm #because that seem to me like it would be the obvious clear choice to represent the events of CV #queue takumi defense squad

coming to the conclusion that people in my speech class are either transphobic or wary of the speech i chose and i'm leaning towards the former

#like logically #they very well could just not be interested in the speech i chose #which is 'Strange answers to the psychopath test' by Jon Ronson #while everyone else chose college or political speeches and the like #so that is a very reasonable reason #but i was the second person to post on the discussion post on the first day it was released #and my name has the (they/them/their) pronoun set next to it #and literally everyone else up until yesterday has at least two responses #so #i dunno #it's weirdly discouraging #and a bit disappointing since people in other classes respond to me in normal manners #i can't tell if i'm overthinking it #it's making me want to remove my pronouns just to see if people start responding later on #but then that wouldn't really be accurate in later discussion posts with diff topics agsgsjd #whatever #i'm just gonna hope it's actually because people don't like the speech i chose #and not because their transphobic #it's better they ignore me than be discriminatory though so #we'll see how it goes #mars babbles

i finally did my dishes after a week, and i was like,, ok,,, i'm gonna fold the laundry now too (it's been four days since i washed it). but to do that, i have to make my bed (it's the only big enough flat surface i have in my dorm). and now i'm halfway through making my bed, and all of a sudden, it's like,, oh my god... why am i doing this there's so much more i have to do i've wasted the whole night and i still have to sort out all my blankets and stuff and then fold the laundry and then heat up dinner and it's all sooooo sadgojhaoigh ughhhh like at this point it's basically tomorrow and i can't deal with tomorrow because then it's basically next week and i have work due then and like i can't even think about doing that, but i have to ,because i have to do it tomorrow, because everything takes so long and it's already basically tomorrow

basically why does time pass and why is folding the laundry so fucking hard

#i know it wouldn't take long if i just fuckingdid it #like logically #but fpiari[w0oeqr\ #AHHHHHHHHHH #i know that really it's the sitting and procrastinating that's taking my time #but that literally is not helping me practically at all #like i've been putting off watching a show for the past three hours #because i needed the time frame to be right so that it ends at the right time #but now it's gotten away from me #and nothing is right #and it's gonna be too fucking late to do what i had planned #and i'll just have sat for hours and my laundry still isn't fucking done #and then it'll be tomorrow #and i'll have to do Real Shit #and then in three days i'll just have to do the fucking laundry all over again #kdjasdklfjsadifmiodsad #fuck #ahhhhh #ok #i'm thinking about potentially making an additional personal tag #perhaps #bee is unstable? #idk #tbh i don't even know if anyone reads the tags #i always do way too fucking much down here #which is probably annoyin #asdfjas #good bye fr

the idea of it being tentoo in the 60th and together he and donna find a way for her to keep her memories and he shows her pictures of rose and their daughter and how happy he has been for these 20ish years because of her and how sorry he is for what his other self had to do and she just says she's been so happy too and she still remembered him, deep down and they have so much to catch up on and donna comes to pete's world with her family and then tentoorose spin off and-

"he would not fucking say that" but you ever be looking at fanart and suddenly its "he would not fucking have abs"

#txt #guys. guys this is not about hcs. do you hear me this is about when a guy with no logical reason to have abs is drawn like a hollister model #like when a guy who does nothing but go to coffee shops and read books is drawn with abs like hes been hiking mountains and climbing trees #do you hear me are you hearing me

so my younger cousin is flying in to visit from brazil on sunday, and will be staying here for like, the entirety of july. which, don't get me wrong, is super cool! i love the kid! but it felt like a super weird move, considering his parents are the SUPER strict and borderline helicopter parents. even the smallest prank/roughousing with him/his little sister would lead to a strict talking to from his parents, he couldn't ever do anything without their clear permission, that sort of stuff. so letting him fly at alone at 16 to a whole different country and stay there for a whole month seemed WILDLY out of character. additionally, it just felt like a super last-minute trip. it's not like we have any plans to do when he gets here, and the flight itself and stuff only got booked like, midway through june.

and i was talking to my mom about it, kind of trying to nudge some answers out of her, and after a while she went, "yeah, i think they're sending him over here to get away for his boyfriend. see if the distance breaks them off." which, first of all, surprised me because last i checked, they didn't KNOW he had a boyfriend. literally everyone in the family did EXCEPT for them because while that entire side of the family being semi-conservative, his parents (mostly his dad) are EXTREMELY old-fashioned. so clearly something already went wrong. and considering the only reason the rest of the family knew is because one person found out and it spread like wildfire, i have a sneaking suspicion he wasn't the one to tell them, either.

and second of all. they're sending him HERE. to try to make him forget his homosexuality. i couldn't do anything but just wordlessly gesture to the multiple pride flags scattered around my room, then to myself, because really? he has like two other cousins in the us and they're sending him to me? honey i am about to introduce this kid to queer scenes you have never even heard of. he'll be returning home with labels only shrimp can perceive

#icarus speaks #i fully believe she's correct btw #they are. not the brightest people. and honestly probably believe this is something that could work #cause i can see the logic of get him away and hopefully he'll realize it's a phase. which is Likely what they think #but oh honey you have a big storm coming #side note this is the SECOND time someone's been outed without permission on that side of the family 😭 #bitches learned of my transgenderism SO quickly #also even if that's NOT why they sent him here. i will still be rocking his world #they have given me Infinite Power and i will use it to make this kid's life as queer as physically possible
