The mentions below are a combination of beautiful visuals animation movies that had captured an immediate attention due to its fresh and appealing color choices and drawing-styles; yet, still intrigued the audience with a unique plot. Before you check out the list, keep in mind that I did not forget any of Studio Ghibli productions. I think every project in Ghibli is so special that I feel I need to make a separate post, don’t you agree? Plus, I want to give a shout-out to other animes. Some are extremely underrated and need much more love and appreciation! ❤️ this and enjoy~
Hirune Hime: Shiranai Watashi no Monogatari / Ancien and the Magic Tablet (2017)
have you ever watched a movie that just breathed a little magic back into you
anyway into the spiderverse is the best movie of this decade so jot that down
it was legitimately hilarious but never held back when nailing you in the gut, the animation was innovative and gorgeous, the character designs were fantastic and the way they blended the different styles of the different dimensions was amazing, the setting was spot-on and they really made NYC come alive and feel like a place people actually lived, the writing was so fucking tight and the way they frame the story (the comic books!) was so fun and so heartwarming, the characters were seriously so so charming and full of life and seeing their joy at finally meeting other people who get it was just. wow. it’s one of those movies you watch that makes you think “oh, this is why we made art. for stuff like this”
Made some outfits for Galathan and trying to figuring out his taste in clothing. It was harder to design his casual clothing surprisingly, he prefers his clothes loose and comfy rather than grand and flashy.
the fact so many people have a fondness for kirby as a character despite never having played or even been interested in playing one of his games really goes to show how good a design he is
He wasn’t even supposed to have his own game. He was supposed to be a filler until they made the main character but the game devs became so fond of Kirby that they just made him the main character
did i ever tell u guys that in fifth grade my class wrote a play bc we were studying ancient greece? it was called persephone and the (not so hot) heroes. i played demeter. basically, persephone got kidnapped by kronos and i strong armed hades into giving me 3 heroes from the underworld to get her back but they were actually terrible and i forget how she was actually saved but bottom line is that you wish you were my fifth grade class
this wasn’t little either, we used the town hall and we wore togas and shit
me as demeter
some lines (this was a joint effort of a bunch of greek-savvy 10/11 year olds):
athena: ‘im the goddess of wisdom but you don’t notice me telling everyone. i’m too smart for that’
-
aphrodite: is zeus chasing some mortal woman again?
athena: no this time he and hera have gone for marriage counselling
-
athena: we can ask hades to let them out of the underworld to help
aphrodite: he’ll never agree, he’s such a deadly bore (we made a fucking pun im so angry)
-
demeter: hades wont pick up. he’s too busy torturing the dead in tartarus
-
hades: i can’t undo the laws of death. just think of the paperwork.
-
aphrodite: the humidity is messing up my hair. it’s getting all frizzy
athena: is that all you care about?
aphrodite: no, it’s also messing up my dress
-
demeter: it’s so dark, and there aren’t any trees or flowers
hades: what do we need trees for, everybody’s dead
-
paris: yeah, and i can shoot straight! isn’t that right, achilles?
-
(hades enters)
paris: who are you? do we know you?
-
achilles: im mighty achilles
odysseus: im wily odysseus
paris: and im hungry paris
-
kronos: i really am awesome, aren’t i
-
aeton: one wrong move and you’re history
odysseus: fool! we already are history!
-
demeter: where are those mortals? i left them right there.
athena: are you sure? this isnt the first time you’ve lost someone.
I suddenly have the need for the entire screenplay, and to direct it at my college.
