VERY TRUE. And She Does Genuinely Care About People So Much, But She Has This Really Interesting Mindset

i just wanted to be a regular fan i didn’t choose this

WAIT DOES STAN HAVE A WIFE??

tangled the series fandom please tell me im not the only one who saw stan and pete and thought "oh yeah they smooched"

BRO WHY DO THEY KEEP MAKING HICCUP LESS PATHETIC IN EACH PIECE OF MEDIA HES IN.

If anyone read the books, they knows he’s supposed to be the most pathetic, kicked dog, soaking wet cat guy ever. Then they made him in the movies, and sure in the first movie he’s kinda pathetic, BUT IN THE FOLLOWING MOVIES HES LESS PATHETIC AND KINDA HOT??? LIKE STOP BRING BACK MY SAD LITTLE MAN.

And then in the live action(either going to suck or be ok) HE DOESNT LOOK PATHETIC AT ALL. HE LOOKS LIKE RTTE HICCUP WHO ISNT PATHETIC IN THE SLIGHTEST.

BRING BACK PATHETIC MEN PLEASE BRING BACK MY USELESS LITTLE TWELVE YEAR OLD NERD WHO CAN SPEAK TO DRAGONS NOT THIS FLYING GUY WHOS ACTUALLY COOL FOR THE LOVE LF GOD.

very good analysis and i am honored you spent so long on it!

My critique with season-3 Rapunzel is that Cass hurting Eugene in “Cassandra’s Revenge” should have been the last straw, in my opinion. Or, if not that, then when she took over Corona. Or, if not that, then when she stole the Sundrop from Rapunzel.

It would have served both characters so well to have Rapunzel give up on Cass, even temporarily, so that Cass could realize that this is having consequences she doesn’t want. And so Rapunzel can display that polarizing mentality we’ve come to expect from her. And so little kids and tweens— and even teenagers and adults— watching this don’t walk away with the lesson that the person who’s hurting you has their better self “still in there”, and you just have to try hard enough to save them. That’s a thing I’ve heard from parents who stopped letting their kids watch after the third season.

just for clarification:

disliking parts of the way rapunzel’s character was handled in the show =/= disliking her.

movie!rapunzel means a lot to me personally, and i absolutely adore some aspects of her character in the show. i think she’s loving, creative, funny, intelligent, and she tries her best to help the people around her.

if i have a critique with her in the show, it’s because i believe that isn’t how she’d behave as someone who went through the events of the movie. or maybe i look at how she acts for one episode of the show, compare it to the foundation they’ve established in an earlier episode, and find that they contrast one another. my criticisms are for the inconsistent or out-of-character writing, not for rapunzel herself. i understand she has flaws; i just wish they were addressed properly and that she didn’t always have to be in the right.

you’re welcome to reblog this if you feel the same way.

disliking parts of the way rapunzel’s character was handled in the show =/= disliking rapunzel.

imagine if NWHS actually hinted at ford being about to kill bill cipher.

like, we see this silhouette in the nightmare realm aiming a massive gun at the demon, see bill's one eye widen in the first fear he's felt in millennia, see the entire realm shaking before the figure leaps through the portal and stores his gun on his back again. then this mysterious man puts his hand on the journal and it fits

imagine how hype that would have been.

With more and more Ao3 authors restricting their works to the archive (due to AI scraping), they're going to be losing guest interaction. And probably generally feeling down because. You know. AI is stealing their hard work.

So! Now is a great time to stop by your favorite authors/stories and drop them some comments! They really appreciate it!

they all secretly believe they’re the leader, and they’re all wrong.

but most of them listen to varian because it’s like he owns the house they’re having the sleepover at. they do it to give him the illusion of control.

The fact that VARIAN is the leader of Team Radical is so fucking funny to me. You know that clip of The Rock’s character in Jumanji giving some super serious leader talk and then turning around to go “don’t cry don’t cry don’t cry don’t”? That’s Varian

i’m thinking about it. i’ll get back to you.

Does anyone know what to do

would. would the tangled the series/vat7k fandom send me some asks about my headcanons/thoughts regarding the Characters. is that a thing i can request.
