this is what we call “propganda.” bernie sanders suspends his campaign AKA he wont spend money advertising himself anymore (bc he wants to help with the pandemic) but he’s still in the race. news sources JUMP on the fact that he’s stopped campaigning to tell everyone “WHOOPS he dropped out! better go vote biden! no other option bc bernie dropped out of the race :/” when he fucking didnt!
Eartha Kitt’s performance as Yzma…the music…the comedy…the Kronk. It is a perfect film
Additional reasons:
Every single character is a PoC
First Disney animated film to show a pregnant woman onscreen
Real relationship goals: Pacha and ChiCha
Really diverse body types on everybody!
Classic tropes and classic tropes subverted (enemies to friends, anyone?)
Kronk
Diverse body type: Llama
Also Kuzko’s character arc is nice to see, instead of ‘be yourself’ it’s like ‘hey, don’t be an asshole’ and he actually learns it
Also r*mance wasn’t at the center of the story, growth was, and that was really refreshing
Also the STYLE:
the random cliffs and ledges and peaks and plummets.
the weird-ass, completely inefficient architecture that served no real functional purpose other than to be big and grand and showy.
that fucking 90 foot throne
the fact that Yzma was lounging on a ledge next to a bottomless chasm somewhere in the middle of the palace
the COLORS oh my god enough of this desaturated, gritty, hyper-realistic bullshit i wanna see GAUDY DECADENCE for the sake of DECADENCE again
Yzma is literally purple and looks like a skeleton and yet somehow no one is bothered by it and she somehow looks fabulous
Friendly reminder it was made by the same studio that produced Lilo & Stitch and Treasure Planet that Disney later closed and many of the employees there moved to Dreamworks…
