Jim's Hair Blowing Around In 2x13 Was Worlds Better Than His Hair In RotT, Fight Me.

I love this little callback to 1x4 in Reckless Club. At the beginning of episode 4, Jim references his upcoming Spanish exam with Señor Uhl "The Unforgiving "

Fast forward to 2x10 and Blinky calls him the same name.

I like to think that the beginning was Blinky narrating the whole story, but he fabricated a bit. I make me think that he made up the bit about Jim time traveling and some of the characters death.

And I whole heartdly agree about the ending being horrible

how is blinky NARRATING as if hes telling the story of the movie at the beginning of “rise of the titan” if at the end of the movie jim goes back in time and effectively makes it so nothing ever happened 😐

HOW IS BLINKY NARRATING A STORY THAT DIDNT HAPPEN

rise of the titans ending was horrible 😐

ROTT was going to be more in line with the shows and have a happy ending but then guess who showed up with a thick stack of papers and said "I had some thoughts about the script", and this is how we got fighter jets, a giant robot, Blinky being tazered, mpreg, pointless deaths and a timeline reset.

I might have typed out a rage fueled rant the other day....

Sighs. Okay yeah i have thoughts about cgi toothless.

First of all, why does he look so... slimy? He feels too smooth. Like they just stretched some scaly skin over a skeleton and let it walk around. Immediately offputting.

His body language is. Fine? Am i being nitpicky or does it seem just the tiniest bit less expressive? I'm guessing this is either the scene right after hiccup cuts him free, in which case he should be way more intimidating, or the fish-sharing scene, in which case he should feel a little friendlier and more curious around hiccup. It's a quick shot so i won't put a ton of expectations onto it, but i think it's worth noting.

Okay this is a legitimately cool detail though. He has a secondary eyelid!! You can see it slipping away when he opens his eyes. That's a detail exclusive to the books so i like that they included something as small as that.

Sighs again. And this is the shot that prompted me to make this post.

Look at the original, and then look at the cgi version. I could write an essay about how inferior the cgi version is in comparison.

First off, they flattened his face. I swear every iteration of night furies after the first movie has just been compressing their snouts until they're sufficiently 'cute' enough for the audience to forget they're supposed to be sleek and aerodynamic.

Second, his eyes. Absolutely radioactive. I understand using a brighter colour for his eyes, especially in a relatively darker environment to make him stand out and seem more fantastical. But. They're just so bright. It's mildly unsettling how saturated they are compared to everything else.

Third, his eyes. Again.

Toothless is supposed to be terrified but still threatening in this scene, and the original shot conveys that perfectly. If it's a threat, then by all means hiccup should kill it or at least run, but instead he draws a connection between both of them being scared of the other and decides to cut him loose instead. And that's the core of their relationship. Toothless is staring him down with a slitted pupil that could just as easily be interpreted as "fuck around and find out" but hiccup just acknowledges that there's a frightened, injured animal in front of him that needs help, and he helps.

Is any of that conveyed in the cgi version? No!! It's trying so hard to be cute that it's gone full circle back to just being scary. The wide-eyed stare, the dilated pupil, he's basically just saying "🥺🥺 uwu pwease i'm so cute and innocent don't kill me aha 👉👈". Which is a lot less of a compelling reason for hiccup to free him!! Plus the fact that toothless turns up to look at him instead of lying and accepting his fate like in the original, which only makes it seem even more like he's trying to show off how apparently adorable he is.

Idk. Just the difference between the in-your-face sanitised cuteness of "teehe you wouldn't kill little old me would you? 🥺" and the expert subtlety of his "please don't hurt me" of the original doesn't give me high hopes for a toothless that stays true to his character from the first movie. Even from something as small as this. He's gonna get woobified. I can feel it.

They make such an effort to stress that Mexico is its own planet. We see Mexico as a Planet in the beginning of the book of life, it even has a mustache. (Which further backs up that Maria and Manolo are Maya and zatz reincarnated bc in Maya and the three, the planet of Mexico doesn't have a mustache yet, which is fair considering mustaches take a long time to grow. Especially to the length that it was in in the book of life.) The fact that Mexico is a planet is important to the story of the book of life because San angel is in the center of Mexico. Then at the end of the movie the camera pulls up and it zooms out to see the planet. We even see that Mexico is a planet in Maya and the three, which makes sense, Because the two universes are one in the same!

So in the book of life/Maya and the three universe, whatever we wanna call this cinematic universe, Mexico is a planet! So why in the book of life, Maria's dad says that he's gonna send her to Spain 🧐. And when he does send her to Spain, she gets on a TRAIN to get there 🧐.

Jorge always makes the best funny parts!! 😂😂😂😂

Damn his smile 😍😍😍 my heart can't take it anymore
