Defunctland and Hbomberguy both released S-Tier videos this week exploring the in-depth origins of a single iconic sound effect. Except one of them is uplifting and beautiful and the other is a deep dive into madness and pathological lying.

Everyone goes to bat for Ghibli and Pixar, but I really don't think Laika gets enough credit in the animation world for making both "Coraline" & "Kubo and the Two Strings", two of the best movies I've ever seen. Like, have you seen the end of "Paranorman"? This is *stop motion*

This might be an unpopular take, but... ...I'm kind of tired of animated films exploring Generational Trauma when the only ending that they're willing to have is "The trauma was resolved because it's the end of the movie now and that's when things are resolved :)" [1/8]

Huge shoutout to Jacob Geller for making this incredible video that's basically just a polite way of telling other essayists: "Bro... your video essay needs to have a point. Don't forget the thesis statement, bro. If there's no thesis, you shouldn't have made the essay, bro."

It's great that Biden won, but already we see the media saying "Democrats, it's time to extend an olive branch & find common ground with Trump voters". Do not. Do not forgive Trump voters. Do not tolerate fascism. Shame and stamp out evil, or it will come back again and again.

It sucks to admit, but sometimes the truth is that family is NOT good! Sometimes your family is NOT supportive. Sometimes living with them is actively dangerous. Sometimes their abuse should NOT be forgiven, and sometimes the ending should be a character moving on. [3/8]

TIP FOR NEW VAs: If an audition asks you to scream, you need to SCREAM. Don't worry about going "too far". I just tossed about 100 auditions for not going far enough. If you go too far I know you can dial it back. If you don't go far enough, I'll assume you can't do it at all.

One of my favorite things about this battle is something I saw pointed out on a Tumblr post once: If you watch Zuko's movements, a lot of them look less like firebending moves and more like airbending, like when he was training with Aang they both rubbed off on each other.

It was nice of "The Mitchells vs. the Machines" to give their protagonist a pride pin and to vocally confirm she was gay, but I like how they didn't even have to do that much because after five seconds on screen I was like "oh yeah, you're DEFINITELY an art lesbian"

I'm not asking for more kids' movies to depict explicit scenes of abuse. But I AM saying that if you spend two hours of your movie showing me how awful a parent/guardian is, maybe the ending should be their kid saying "Fuck off, grandma!" and setting out on their own. [4/8]
