ken only has a great day if barbie looks at him

YESSSSS me sitting my family down to analyze everything about the movie also that one 10 second scene where the guidance counselor is talking about how every student has a story and Miles is an “immigrant son” in a “struggling household” and his parents jump to clarify that he is neither of those things but the guidance counselor doesn’t listen and is still insistent on that tortured minority image AND ALSO that one scene of Miles and Rio where he says this is his life and she says no this is my and your father’s life and the life of everyone who came before you and sacrificed to get you here and wished they could live the life you have been given and this barely touches the burden and the absolutely opposing trajectories that the two generations live their lives with and the way the spiders and the other characters exhibit that

Got back from seeing the movie again and a tiny theme I liked was the solidarity in the younger POC generation vs the older gen.

Margo, Hobie, Pavitr and Miles all had eachother’s back. They fought together, they helped eachother in small ways like Hobie telling Miles to use the palms, and big ways like Miles saving Captain Singh and Margo letting Miles go “home”.

They could’ve stopped him, they could’ve not helped eachother but they did. Because they understood and they all realized what was wrong with the Spider Society. All of them at the end came together to support and help Miles, in the way the rest of the spiders couldn’t and didn’t.

And when you put that into perspective with Miguel and Jessica, older POC that gave no support. They believe that Miles has to suffer in order to become Spider-Man, that pain will always have to happen.

But the others don’t believe that, they know that best way to be a hero is uplift and help eachother. Often the parents, the older generation compromise their morals and others for the future, for them to grow up safer and yet the future generation always has to reckon with the consequences of those actions without even having a say in the first place.

That’s a damn message, and I love that they used the younger poc generation to show that because this does happen in real life, there is a difference and our parents, our grandparents believe that pain has to happen for our identity to be created.

Just so we're all on the same page with the writer's strike.

If during the strike, it's announced about AI generated shows. We are not watching them. Not even out of curiosity. Let them fail every AI generated show they try make.

The human voice can not be replaced by AI. Don't let them try.

what is a love story if not falling to your knees and pressing your shaking hands to his wound, as if the desperation of your heart could stem the blood pumping out of his; and what is a love story if not holding out a sticky-sweet handful of death to the greedy cameras; and what is a love story if not your one wish being to send her home, with all the reasons why hanging golden around your neck like a willingly-worn noose; and what is a love story if not hitching yourself to the puppet strings of politicians in a last ditch attempt to save each other across the miles; and what is a love story if not the ever- unspoken mantra “take my life: take it, take it, take it” — and what is a love story if not the burned and blistered realization that offering up your life is not enough, not quite, but that offering your lover’s life back to them might just be? so you plant her primroses in the ash, and you mend his mind with the thread of new memories, and it isn’t pretty, but it is a love story — because what else could it be?

Just watched Spider-Man across the spider verse and my life has honestly been changed I sat there for half the moving wondering what it must feel like to work in a project like this. People had to sit there and write rewrite and edit every word every sentence every interaction animate every scene in that particular way choose to colour every shot with those specific colours rvery song every soundtrack choice the way the music overwhelmed the audience then switched to being almost outside the scene was insane. All of it was intentional. I want to sit and analyse everything and write essays upon essays on it all. The costumes the way each character was animated in a different style. Was there a significance to Hobie’s varying between colorful and black and white? What the reason behind the scene between Gwen and her dad altering colors like that? Everything about this movie was madness to me and it feels like it’s going to change so much. The emphasis on the canons on Spider-Man’s story that paralleled the Hero’s Journey and Miles’ questioning and criticism of it!!! The idea of having to let things be because they have to go that way and so they must be accepted because sacrifices must be made and the refusal to accept that in the movie’s storyline which is a reflection of society’s current attempt to break the mold on so many traditional narratives. I have so many thoughts. This movie is truly inexplicable to me.

I am consuming a media and you are going to hear about it
