Nimona 2023 - Tumblr Posts
I'll be wearing this as a badge of honor, thank you. But fr the staff behind Nimona is so nice and wholesome.
Found Family. Nimona wanted a friend, found a boss, and ended up with a dad.
Even though this movie didn't win the Oscar's, it's definitely still one of the best animated movies of all time (this is not my opinion this is a fact). The reason I love this movie so much is because it has paved the way for animated movies to come, for them to have more positive queer representation in kids media.
This movie deserves more recognition than it currently has. Thank you team Nimona for making one of my favourite movies of all time.
I'm so happy that Nimona is getting so many nominations! I've watched this movie too many times to count. It's visually appealing, the characters are so charming, and the story is incredibly interesting! And the history behind the production is inspirational too.
Even if it doesn't win much, I hope that it spreads the name out for more people to enjoy it!

AO3 is back up but I’m still writing Nimona headcanons
I feel like the main trio are all really bad at taking care of themselves
Nimona can go a long time without eating drinking or sleeping so it’s really easy for her to fall into a pattern of not taking care of herself until she’s sluggish and snappy
At first it was really hard for the boys to distinguish her food withdrawals from her normal chaos
When they do figure it out they make sure she eats and drinks at least once a day even if it small
It took a minute for her to adapt to this because she views taking care of herself as a hobby
But after a while she realizes that they’re just looking out for her so she goes along with it
Every once and a while Bal gets hyper-fixated on certain projects which causes him to forget to eat and sleep
Nimona once asked Ambrosius why he doesn’t do anything to stop these habits to which he responded “Oh believe me Nim I’ve tried it’s better to just let him get it out of his system”
Nimona still didn’t understand this and tried to force Bal to get up and take care of himself
Which just ended with Nimona being on the other side of a verbal thrashing and then quickly shoved out of Bal’s workspace
Ambrosius didn’t even bat an eye
Just walked around Nimona into the room with some food and water and then quickly left him alone
After that Nimona started to leave Bal snacks and pillows in his workshop when he eventually crashed
(And occasionally carrying him to his room when Ambrosius was too tired to carry him)
Bal also forgets to charge his arm
So it’s not uncommon for his arm to die and stay locked in that position
One time Ambrosius walked into the kitchen to find Bal hunched in an awkward position over his coffee and he didn’t flinch
Just gave him a straw and a kiss on his head before he left for work
Another time Nimona walked into the living room to find them cuddled on the couch
And they start their normal rant of “Ew gross get a room”
To which Ambrosius replied “I would if I could Nim”
She was quietly informed that Bal fell asleep and his arm died shortly after and Ambrosius has been stuck like this for hours waiting for Bal to wake up
Nimona laughed so hard they almost woke Bal up
They started storing chargers all around the house after that
So I have a headcanon that I kind of hinted at in my other post
But I’m fully convinced that Ambrosius’ shoulder is fucked after the movie (he also has scars because I said so)
Because no way in hell can this man take a blast like that to his shoulder and walk away perfectly fine
Nah that man will be doing PT exercises for the rest of his life
And this dork forgets to do his exercises until he’s literally on the floor writhing in pain
Bal has tried just about everything to get him to remember
He’ll leave notes around the house, he’ll remind him before he leaves for work, writing it into his workout routine
Nimona told him “Boss you’re being too soft” and quickly switched tactics
Now you might be wondering what method Nimona used and that’s simple he started blackmailing Ambrosius
Nimona started to warn Ambrosius “If you don’t do your exercises I’ll tell boss what happened to the last slice of cake” or “I’ll release the video of you singing at the top of your lungs while cleaning the house”
And the stupid thing is it worked
Ambrosius always says shit like “I should have left you in that box on the side of the road” to which Nimona responds with “Nah you’d miss me too much”
He also had a bad habit of getting sucked into little projects like trying to rebuild the city and fixing all the brainwashing that’s been going on since the institute was created
You know small tasks for one person
And this dork will stay locked in his office until Nimona and Bal drag his overdramatic ass out
He always makes a big deal about it too screaming shit like “Oh please help me the heroes of the realm are kidnapping me an innocent bystander while I was simply doing my job!”
I feel like Bal and Ambrosius have a lot of nicknames for Nimona “Nim” is the most common
“Hun” and “kid” are used a couple of times but not nearly as often as the weird ones
Like “tornado” “tsunami” “hurricane” and “forest fire”
And if we’re getting really sappy “starlight”
Now if you’re wondering where this one came from I’ll tell you
When Bal and Ambrosius were little beans Bal called Ambrosius “sunshine”
It was supposed to be ironic but after that he started calling Bal “moonbeam”
And Ambrosius jokes that Nimona completes their little astronomy shtick
She pretended to be grossed out and lets Bal hug her and Bal and Ambrosius pretended not to notice the tears on Bals shirt
the Nimona image has had a death hold over my thoughts the since I watched it a few days ago, it’s a 1000/10 movie, so when I saw the original image I had to draw this
quick lil Nimona sketch :)
Controversial topic but I love her design lmao
walks up to the microphone and leans in: Gloreth held a wooden sword pointed at Nimona in threat, causing one of her core traumas. So picture Ambrosius, post-movie, offering her the hilt of a wooden sword and asking if she’d like to learn how to use one. The inversion of it.
I finally got to watching Nimona and I have mixed feelings about it.
I might just be acting like another ‘the book is better than the movie’ person.
I kinda like how the director is more of someone who believes so much in the old beliefs as oppose to her GN version where she was like gonna experiment on Nimona.
I wished Aambrosius had more agency and I also wished the movie built more of Nimona and Ballister’s heart to heart. The animation wasn’t bad, but the scenes where they’re in the super light places kinda makes it look like a Spiderverse deleted scene.
I actually really love how we got a kinda backstory to Nimona, we still don’t really know what she is, but the extra world buildings nice.
Overall, I did like it, but I kinda recommend the book more.
🏳️🌈🦈 Happy anniversary to Nimona, besides Spider-verse, Mutant Mayhem and the other amazing films that came out last year, Nimona is a film that deserves to be talked about.
One year since we met Nimona, Ballister, Ambrosias and many more!
With incredible performances, awesome animation and amazing themes of queer identity and representation, this film was Blue Sky studios final hoorah and the one of the best animated films of 2023 and all time!🏳️🌈🦈

rewatched Nimona for like the 10th? time with my grandparents
despite this it was the first time I noticed that during the jail scene early in the movie, as the director is about to leave you can actually see Nimona sneaking past as a rat.
I just think this is really cool and the people working on this movie did so well with every single detail
does blackheart use his goatee to hide the fact that he very much lacks a chin or
"Then you never knew me at all" ahh yea, another new hyperfixation (actually omg thank you for all your feedback under the last post, I've never seen such numbers in MY ENTIRE LIFE???)
My laptop isn't working so enjoy some low-quality memes made on my phone
