mouse hunt is actually a gothic horror, but y’ain’t ready for that observation

(thinking about similarity between Eternal Diva and Castle of Cagliostro) anyway Descole

If I haven’t given more new is that I’m still at the cheese factory getting fatter and appreciating the abundance of food and no one trying to end my life.

I think I should retire here.

But I know I need to go back to find more mouses that would love this place.

It’s the right thing to do, but at the same time I want to stay here.

the scene in mouse hunt where the mouse is going to bed in his little tuna can or whatever and he looks at the poster on his wall, the little hawaii postcard he put up and is like falling asleep dreaming of hawaii, and then the fucking nail gun comes and ruins his house???? thats the most fucked up scene in all of cinema it’s so fucking evil and cruel,   i mean this so genuinely

Life Story

one of my best friends playing lost future asking me if she should be scared and if she will cry... bestie i am so sorry for you these games will destroy you

guys is this Marty??

Raggedy Andy and Ann au is so strong

Random ahh thing that Pencey Prep collab with another school for a play and Holden joined for laughs and shit and got the part of Raggedy Andy

Also I do believe bro may have known the splits and so it makes it even better

I am once again pondering the fact that Marty McFly is just such a fantastic character. Like, especially when you look at other male protagonists in the 80s, they all follow a similar trend. A lot are uber cool and suave, with the added side effect of also being a jerk. Many are popular jocks or whatever. Big flirts. Edgy and troubled or sleazy, etc.

And Marty is sort of in his own category entirely. He's cool, but he's not? He skateboards and kills it on guitar but has 2 whole friends--his girlfriend and a disgraced scientist--and crippling self-doubt and can't go a day without falling down or tripping over his own feet or nearly being killed by a car.

He's polite. He's respectful. Won't let anyone mess with the people he loves and doesn't let a moment pass by where he can thank somebody or apologize for a wrongdoing. (seriously, Marty has beautiful manners. Like, it is quite noticeable how often he says, "please," "thank you," "excuse me," or "sorry".)

His emotions are all SO BIG and he doesn't hold back on them. He gets all animated when he's excited and yells when he's scared and cries when he's sad and pulls his friend into big ol' hugs.

He literally never knows what is going on. Marty exists in the constant state of confusion. Between asking Doc to "wait a minute" every other sentence and his ever-changing, scattered thoughts, Marty is just out there trying to survive. Just slow it down, alright? He's a smart guy, but he's also got elevator music playing in his head. Really really fast elevator music.

Time means nothing to him. His watch is broken. He's racking up tardies like it's nobody's business. Stopping by the garage to look for Doc and play some guitar when he should be at school. He's got to get out of that stupid suit RIGHT THIS INSTANT even though he's got one shot at the lightning strike at the clock tower.

Marty just. Does things. There is zero impulse control. A synapse fires and Marty's brain goes "!!!" and that's that. Punch the bully who's twice your size, buy that sports almanac, just Walk Away while Doc is talking to you. Buy that sweet leather jacket. Ignore ALL instructions you're given! Marty, you need constant supervision and I love you for that.

He's just. Marty is the most character. Look at him.

They really knocked it out of the park with this guy.

skeleton freak party!!!
