I watched Wish, the 100th anniversary Disney movie that came out last November, and I am not exaggerating, it was one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. Lmao. The music was horrible and served nothing to the plot, the heroine has no character or arc, the story is weak, it’s horribly paced, the animation looks terrible and unfinished. The lighting and field of view is so flat my eyes had no idea where to land the entire time and I couldn’t absorb any of it visually. The movie committed the sin of telling me things and not showing me things at least 600 times. The movie tried to be funny but I’m so serious, not one joke made me even chuckle the entire movie. They didn’t make me care about any of the characters. They couldn’t decide or establish what sort of villain Magnifico is supposed to be or his motivations. The magic in the movie is so vague I have no idea how it works or what it was supposed to represent. I still have no fucking clue how they defeated him at the end, was it hope? Their wishes? Their sense of community? Idk they didn’t say. Also the lyrics in the songs straight up were written by ChatGPT and never polished past that. This is a magical kingdom with no technology and they use the words “shareholders” and “genes” in lyrics. The You’re a Star song or whatever is the worst disney song I’ve ever heard. I could literally go on for hours about this movie. All the Easter eggs are so empty and forced it’s cringe.

I share this not to dog on the animators or anything, it’s not their fault. This is clearly a symptom of a continuing pattern with Disney: profit over vision and creativity. Generic heroines, generic stories, budget cuts, impossible timelines, forcing in character so they can sell toys, prioritizing palatability over art, etc.

I’m shocked Disney would even want their name on this movie.

The thing about Cottagecore is that is a fetishized aesthetic of country life, divorced from labor and idealized by a primarily urban audience with a backward looking ethos of tradition. They are not prepared for the stresses of a rural life: farming; harvesting; tapping pumpkins to ensure none of them have been replaced with flesh; losing out on income by having to use one of your pigs in a blood sacrifice to paint protective sigils over your doors and windows; checking cracks and chimneys for the flesh-vines of the Pumpkin Lord; having to decide, before the Growth is complete, whether that's really your tradwife or an amassment of vines, leaves, and blood in the shape of your tradwife; ignoring their desperate pleas that "I'm me! No! No!" as you burn them alive, realizing too late you picked wrong; and the exploitative corporate nature of commercial farming in 2024. All seen through a deeply colonial lens, of course

SCREAMING WHAT

I’ve read about one too many emerald orbs “Her green eyes looked like that stringy moss stuff that grows in stagnant ponds and makes you worry to touch the water cause it's gonna be gross.”

“Their eyes reminded me so of the dry dirt in a festival parking lot you walk on for an hour in the heat to get back to your car after a county fair that turned out to have no rides but a lot of goats that you were not allowed to touch.”

“His blue eyes were precisely the shade of Clorox clinging gel bleach toilet cleaner.”
