but, when i think of this movie? and the passion that went into it? like, as much as i think the story needed a rewrite, it's like. oh my god. but the animation team made these characters. they are the reason why this movie worked. i guess it's too cumbersome to credit everyone so you credit no one.

this performance straight up made my cry. these women like visibly do not believe this is really happening to them, and they're so excited and honored to be able to present their work like this. this is a shot in the dark success that will financially benefit them for years to come! awesome!

this is always the case, but here it's quite striking? this was a film no one thought would succeed. sony sold it to netflix assuming a theatrical release would be a loss. but surprise! enormous hit! they're even performing the songs on SNL & late night! youtu.be/8y-ViyUk7Dk?...

it's really frustrating how much this was a film that relied so much on the passion and vision of its animators, designers, engineers, etc... and yet. all they get is a bullet point on their resume while the music team is in an industry where royalties, uh, exist?

h. p. heisler @hpheisler.bsky.social · 16h

y'know even if i thought the plot of it was crazy i like that kpop demon hunters became a landmark moment of a thing for children and especially girls are an undeniable cultural force. it's fun to see the voice actresses get their flowers. i also wish. that extended to the animation team. but.

you are not supposed to let it cool in the chamber so the crust sogs out a tiny bit but like. we're not discerning are we. under such conditions.

the strategy is? that during the witching hours of the night that you've taken an edible? you start bread in the breadmaker.

and then you wake up with a loaf of bread. that somehow spawned on your counter for you. the fairies made it.

you? are the fairies.
did you put too much yeast in it? maybe?

the song "a thousand miles" by vanessa carlton is about how you need to go a thousand miles per hour in order to see your love.

what if all of the stupidest (i.e. good, awesome, perfect) britney songs had the most unreasonable vocal chops imaginable? what if the production was falling down the stairs? what if we dreamed a little bigger?

it's going bwoop bwoop?

sneakernight catches so much heat when i really think it is the most normal song on the album. identified by vanessa hudgens is a dense text. taylor swift who. youtu.be/IuykTnbXauM?...

aliza let me watch revolutionary girl utena one time and it has immediately broken how i compose shots forever. we can't get the slime out of the puppet anymore.

and by slime i mean bias towards flat, graphic staging and surrealist tendencies.

hello. i have accidentally found a fake slop homesteading channel that posts "recipes" of food-like objects that i can only describe as... body horror adjacent? youtube.com/shorts/XYhYs...

i am applying the status effect silence to myself so i will stop talking about wicked marketing being completely coconuts.

i feel like i'm the only one being made crazy by this. they didn't make little golden books of the hunger games with all of the characters smiling happily together.

that goat is a civil rights activist silenced by the wizard cops. elphaba is an antifa supersoldier. what is happening.

i'm worried the movie is going to end in a scene where we learn glinda didn't do anything wrong and madame morrible didn't do anything wrong and the wizard was just super sad nobody did anything wrong please buy more dolls please buy more products please. slay. slay as in kill. kill.

not to be dramatic but i'm really worried that Wicked: For Good will end with a new original song and that new original song is just...

do you think it's okay that we're doing this? is this okay? is this even, like... ethical?

we live in a world where adult and children's entertainment has collapsed into a consumer singularity where you can buy your interesting son a barbie of academy award winning actress michelle yeoh for christmas. and that barbie? is a fascist.
