green guys who get their guts removed

Man, I was watching the movie and the entire time I was thinking "Wow. This would've been so much more satisfying in the show" because the show has earned it. The show's writing is far from perfect, it has many, many flaws, but my god is it far better than Miraculous Awakening will ever be. And I'll tell you why.

I will preface by saying, yes, an hour and a half movie has way less time than a TV show with several episodes to build up characters and relationships, so time constraints will make it so we may not get as much depth in the on-screen relationships.

You know what, though? The time they spent playing mediocre songs could've been used better to show us all the things the songs had to outright tell us. Cause that was the problem.

The movie sure liked telling us how the characters were feeling. It rarely showed it. Like could you tell me why movie Marinette liked Adrien? Because I couldn't. What did he do to earn her affection beside look pretty? Why did we only get a montage of them getting closer instead of actually seeing it? Or how we never really see much of Gabriel and Adrien's struggles with the loss of Emilie, we simply get glimpses. How am I supposed to feel anything when Gabriel stops being Hawk Moth when this movie showed us literally nothing of their strained relationship? And then there's Gabriel's claim that he did absolutely everything to get Emilie back. No he didn't. He did actually nothing. He freed a couple of criminals and then akumatized himself. That's it. That's all he did.

Could you tell me why Alya decided to befriend Marinette? Could you tell me why Adrien "who decided not to get close to anyone" was friends with Nino? Could you tell me why Chloe was so confident Adrien had any interest in her when they never actually interacted?

And then there wasnt enough explanation on how anything that we should've been told worked. Could anyone really tell me how these versions of the miraculous work? Or why Master Fu was in possession of them? Or why they really chose their holders? Could you tell me if the kwami had much personality and were necessary?

Like, I will say, there were funny moments, the animation was nice, and there were cool set pieces, but where was the substance?? It was nonexistent. If you don't watch the show, would you know or feel anything for what was going on in this movie?

Cause even for me, who does watch the show, I didn't.

Think about this. The show has even faked out multiple reveals to me and every time I was hyped and screaming, I have read fanfiction of these same to characters falling in love and confessing every which way and I've swooned, but we get reveals and love confessions that are real and permanent in this movie and I felt. Nothing.

It's okay if yall disagree with me, but I just needed to get this off my chest. I'm hard on this movie because I wanted it to be good because I love the characters and story from the show.

So excited🤭

Are you gonna bite the bullet and just have mature rating on all your streams from now on? Like after the rebrand?

Maybe! Probably! We shall see!

How THE FUCK do y’all’s phones work? Like, they should have exploded by now. Literally, you’re devices must be constantly overheating wtf😭 On average, I have anywhere between 10-15 ao3 tabs open but sometimes it’s closer to 20. Y’all need therapy /j

The results of my last poll just ended, but I'm doing this again because I greatly overestimated the number of tabs the average ao3 user has lmao

Any tab open on the ao3 wesbite counts, not just fics open. If you have tabs open across multiple browsers or multiple devices, please add them up and vote according to the combined total. And please count before you vote and not after :D

Dude I didn’t get to watch it live so I watched it through the vods on YouTube and the ending was fucking crazy. I genuinely was not expecting it but it was literally already decided for me so it was more like watching a movie than an interactive experience lol

The real horror of watching Genloss 2 months after it’s finale is that you the viewer have no control over the situation any more. You are put into a position where gl! Ranboos fate has already been decided and you just have to watch it play out, because you know there’s only one way this can end. And even then, you just feel dread. Because of how much he was begging for his life I felt even more helpless in the moment. And I could do nothing but watch the already done polls go and decide this man’s predetermined fate. Now that, that is horrific. No matter what you can’t stop the tragedy that is about to happen.

I find it interesting because so many people have been shitting on all types of insert-fics since I learned about fanfiction and yet those are practically the only kind I read? Like obviously I read other stuff, but insert-reader fics have been my go-to for like, 7 years lol

(I used to be VERY into x reader fics but have slowly slipped out of them since romance is just a weird concept I can’t seem to grasp apparently /hj)

(I also never got into smut or ‘lemons’ so yeah…)

Why am I suddenly seeing so many people shitting on self-shipping and x-reader fics? When you're reading a ship-fic, do you not identify yourself with one side of the relationship? Do you not relate to at least one of the characters? See yourself in them?

Regardless, we're all here to have fun and express ourselves, so just don't read it if you don't like it!
