Free My Woman She Did All Of It But I Dont Care

Free my woman she did all of it but I don’t care

Good omens and wwdits premiering a week apart from each other is going to cause a catastrophic fandom moment that might fry the tumblr servers.

That being said ofmd has the opportunity to be the funniest fuckers alive

I always found it amazing how an adaptation so different from the source material can actually be equally if not more well received by people who read and loves the book. I watched the movie first and loved it so when i found out it had a book, I immediately brought it, and to my surprise, Sophie and Howl’s dynamic was so different than the movie. So yes, I love the movie for the vibe and soothing feelings it gives me, I love the animation and the movie was overall just so beautiful. But I love the book for the characters, I love they’re personality and the overall chaos of the book. You just can’t see half as much of Sophie’s bad assery and her fiery personality or Howl being an overdramatic petty guy whose into women completely dominating him. The banters, oh gawd.

The fact is both the book and movies are different from each other, but they got the same essence and soul, just done in a different way.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the dreamy fairytale-ness of the Ghibli movie version of Howl’s Moving Castle, but the book. The book. Sophie, first off, being so incredibly set on being the boring un-gifted un-adventuresome eldest daughter (as is right and fitting for an eldest daughter to be) that she doesn’t notice she’s working magic, like, constantly? And when a witch shows up like “hey girlie you are fully working SO much magic that I’m feeling threatened, so like I’m gonna put you in the old lady dimension ciao,” she’s like well. That was weird. Anyway I guess I better go find something to do as an old lady. And she reasons that this famously evil sorcerer who eats young girls’ hearts is probably safe for her now cause like. She’s old. What’s he gonna do to me. And proceeds to bully her way into becoming his cleaning lady. And Howl, known flaky whimsical fuckboy extraordinaire, is like sure okay I guess that works for me. And just as well because it turns out he’s also a fucking bottom who kinda digs this strong stubborn lady who’s steamrolled her way into his life, kinda weird that she’s disguised as an old woman but w/e he’s not gonna question her life choices and like it’s not actually a problem for him, and by the time Sophie’s figured out that oh crap oh shit she’s actually kinda into this flighty asshole, what am I gonna do, he’d never return my feelings in a hundred years, Howl’s basically accepted that they’re mostly married. And also how can you top “my extremely powerful and slightly fey wizard is just a Welsh grad student who wandered into a portal one day” for a character concept. You can’t. It’s the perfect book really

seeing people be like ‘I know it’s going to be hard to support the sag strike because movies and shows will stop coming out but-’ is so fucking funny like can I introduce you to a beautiful concept called the million billion movies and shows that already exist that you couldn’t even get through in a lifetime if you wanted. welcome to heaven <3

love love love how they fleshed out prince eric's character in the live-action film. they make him relatable af, especially with his 'search for identity being hindered by a loving-yet-smothering parental figure' arc. they make him feel like an Actual Person with his own wants and needs and silly quirks instead of the satellite love interest they portrayed him as in the animated film. what's more, they actually show us why and how ariel fell so hard so fast for him in the first place. plus it just makes me really happy thinking about how now that they they're working on their happily ever after together, eric can learn as much as he wants about the seven seas and ariel can learn everything her heart desires about the human world and they'll just have such a good time discovering new treasures together UGH this movie wasn't perfect but the character development was very much *chef's kiss*
