Watched Nimona a few weeks(months as of present) ago b/c Netflix put it free on YouTube and it's so fun!
The voice acting is solid. Had me about to cry twice ๐ญ. I couldn't pinpoint everyone's voices until the end when the credits came up; but, then it clicked. Like 'why does he sound so familiar? Who is that? Oh! That's who that is! No way!' The actors and actresses did a wonderful job โบ๏ธ
The animation is so pretty and expressive. You could freeze-frame so many scenes and just stare at it. The backgrounds remind me of watercolor and the characters kinda remind me of paper.
The first escape scene reminds me of the Emperor's New Groove which is a win
(opens split screen so I can look up how to spell characters' names correctly)
I like most of the characters honestly. A lot of their motivations make sense to me in some way.
Nimona is a fun character. I like their carefree approach to stuff which is a nice contrast to Ballister and everyone else they have to face off against. It made the serious scenes more sad and it emphasizes the backstory when you realize exactly what was true about the things they told Ballister on the train. (Them talking about just letting people kill them had me tearing up ๐ญ)
I really like Ballister. He's an underdog. And I was not ready for how this movie was going to kick off! Man JUST got his recognition from the Queen and everyone else who's been doubting him, then it gets destroyed a second later ๐ฑ LIKE ๐คฌ! OKAY THEN! Him and Ambrosius are cute though. On that note...
Ambrosius. I like him well enough. I like how his personal feelings for Ballister come into conflict with his job.
Sidenote: I like how it's done here. You'll see a lot of characters have this conflict but they either just met the other person; or the feelings just got reciprocated. But, since Ballister and Ambrosius are written to be already well established (they have favorite spots and know how each other likes their food) it's more impactful.
I honestly love his fake out scene. It's funny but also nice to see what he honestly thinks about everything happening between him and Ballister and the system they're a part of. Which shows how him and Ballister think alike and why they work as a couple.
But I also kinda wish two things happened in this movie:
Nimona and Ambrosius both mentioned how โcutting off limbs, isn't a love language,โ and Ballister acknowledges that's how they're trained to react, but it would've been a nice 3 for 3 mention if Ballister said that when Ambrosius follows him out of the diner/bar. Just throwing it back in his face would've been so good and dramatic!
Ngl I wanted Ambrosius to lose an arm. I feel like it would've been dramatic but also kinda symbolic b/c they both lost an arm b/c of the system they were brainwashed by. Also matching disabled boyfriends!
Todd...๐คฌ you! No, but I thought Todd died during the final battle. Then he lived. ๐คฌ...no, but honestly Todd was a jock douchebag but he was funny. Plus, I can give him credit for stepping toe to toe with Ambrosius b/c he believes that Ballister is a weak point for him ( which is a fair point).
The Director was terrible. Manipulative and unwilling to see reason. She was frustrating in the best way. Using the prophecy and everyone's fear of the unknown and mob mentality is solid evil. And I was happy for her downfall.
Fucking wild to be teaching about Rosa Parks at the same time as a trans woman in Florida does an act of civil disobedience to use a women's restroom in the state capitol
The Roguish Brogue line of menโs dress shoes sized for women, trans men, and non binary people with smaller feet, available in black and light brown.
Tomboy Toes is a seller of formal and semi-formal menโs shoes in sizes intended to fit both women with masculine style as well as people who donโt identify as women but still have a hard time finding menโs dress shoes in a size that fits their feet.
Our ambition goes beyond just selling shoes. Weโre about giving people confidence in their appearance, empowered by a wardrobe that reflects their unique style. You deserve to feel awesome.
isnโt it insane though how schizophrenic people are viewed as violent and dangerous by the majority of society when in reality schizophrenic people are nearly 14 times more likely to be on the receiving end of violence than to be the perpetratorsโฆ

Hey ๐๐พ
I wanted to share some of my writing.
YES! First, lovely art; it's very pretty ๐. Secondly, I thought the exact same thing! Specifically when Tails got launched out by Knuckles and seemed to hold his breath right before.
It honestly makes sense to me for Shadow not to be super effected; he's the "Ultimate Lifeform". Plus, he was suspended in animation for 50 years. I feel like his body was built for harsh environments.
From the moon.
Drew this the morning after I saw the movie, trying to mess around with a more loose style and paint-y brush. Very experimental but I kinda liked it! Took about an hour to make.
Itโs completely from memory so I know I got a bunch wrong, Iโm probably gonna draw the scene again once proper screenshots are available bc it was so pretty
Also, something I was thinking about the entire time they were on the moon out of their super forms:
She/Her, 25. I fangirl about various things: books, movies, animes, etc. I'm pretty chill when I'm not a nervous disaster ๐ Nice to meet ya!
