i was reading comics and i came along this panel
if you look at his legs and his shadow bruce should be like this:
(its his helicopter parent mode)
I think Bruce Wayne is a loving parent, but not a good one. He is a psychologically tormented person who never got over his trauma or developed any healthy coping mechanisms but he just keeps ending up with them and doesn’t really know what to do with them.
Like Dick’s parents die right in front of him and Bruce is just “hey kid, my parents died in front of me to. And you know what helped me? Punching bad guys.”
And Jason? He finds this kid stealing his tires and he’s not afraid of Batman. He doesn’t seem afraid of anything. He’s got a big heart and cares a lot about people, but no one cares about him. So he goes “hey kid, you seem lost. You know what helps me when I’m feeling lost? Punching bad guys.”
With tim it’s a little more complicated. Bc this kid showed up at his front door and put him in a corner (tim saved him) and Bruce went, “hey kid, you seem pretty good at this. I do encourage you to find a different extracurricular activity… but yes, you can punch bad guys with me.”
And with Damian it’s even more complicated but in simplest terms Bruce and Dick look at Damian and go, “hey kid, you seem like you have some issues and a weird moral compass. Do you know what makes me feel better? Punching bad guys.”
Like shit bruce I’m no expert but maybe some talk therapy or grief counselling might help.
something i feel very strongly about is that the IT films do a bad job making the adults feel like friends. i don't know if it's a script issue, a directing issue, or an acting issue, but it's incredibly frustrating to me.
the movie does a great job showing close relationships between the losers in specific pairs (richie and eddie, ben and beverly, mike and bill), but otherwise they do not feel like friends to me (they almost get there in the jade scene, but nothing like in the miniseries, and the rest of the movie is awful in this regard). like you want me to believe eddie died and beverly and ben are just??? making out??? like richie is here sobbing on a rock and he loses his glasses and the other losers go looking and bev and ben are just???? kissing? like these are not beverly and ben these are imposters. like tell me why richie was the only one who showed any significant emotion over eddie dying. they were all friends, thats the whole goddamn point.
and idk what happens in the book, but the losers leaving eddie in the sewers is so stupid, like he is constantly noted to be tiny, and you're telling me none of the losers could carry him out? ben's whole thing (which i will be ranting about later because it pisses me off that ben had to get skinny and buff to be hot like shut the fuck up) is that he got buff and he couldn't pick up eddie? seriously? it makes no sense for the losers to leave him down there he hated the sewers the last place in the world that he would ever want to rest forever would be in a disgusting sewer. they love him and they know him they would never leave him down there
the relationships between the losers in the miniseries feel so much more substantial, yes richie and eddie are shown to be notably close, same with ben and bev, but that doesn't mean they don't all love each other. it's very notable to me that in the miniseries the losers are always touching each other, and not just in brief offhand ways, they lean into each other, they lay on each other, they caress each others faces. it isn't just that they love each other and are comfortable sitting close together on the couch or something, they are constantly actively touching each other, both because they love each other, and probably because they're so amazed to have each other back and want to commit their friends to memory. like literally any scene with more than one loser in it? they're touching each other or otherwise very close, whereas in the film you don't get that impression at all.
here is a study of squall and rinoa from ff8
I have started a human au of transformers, this is my design for a human hot rod
This is the original design for him with the original design for arcee
saw a megatron version of this going around, but personally i find starscream a lot more interesting. so i made my own
i didn't mean to—
After watching the movie, I started to think about how Miguel didn't even looked at Mayday when she fell on him. One can assume it's because he's not in a good mood, but I started to think about what he lost.
I'm not very good at explaining it, so I hope the artwork talks for itself
It's been 2 weeks+ since the movie release, so at this point there's a lot more approach of that situation in a comedic way. It took me a lot of time to finally start this, and it feels like a bad timing since what's going on rn are memes about it more than anything, but well, I wanted to do it anyway
I started to fight this piece too much, so I'll just leave it at this point and call it finished, good or bad
yes, this was the artwork that made me open a poll about Miguel's ass... I'll share the version of it that didn't make it... at some point-
multi fandom (right now- final fantasy, doctor who, persona, transformers, kingdom hearts. saf)
