You are somehow getting the exact opposite of what the movies message was. It’s part of the Anti-Disney theme. The Beast isn’t ugly and shouldn’t be ashamed of itself and its “reward” shouldn’t be being turned into a Beauty so they can “fit in” with all the Normies. Rather the message of Shrek is gently caress society and gently caress the Normies, Beasts are badass and should be welcomed and celebrated and society should get out of the way.

I thought that message would be better expressed if everyone got to look the way they were born. Fiona's nightly ogre status was originally a curse. I do see your point, though.

Shrek was originally meant to be voiced by Chris Farley. You can find a YouTube video of his lines set to an early animatic.

guess we already moved onto Shrek chat, but a former pitchfork reviewer wrote about it and distilled it down to "yeah they were hated, but lovely opinionated reviews made you think about how they were wrong" and that going back to rescore albums that were good before their time is pretty gross

I miss humans talking about contemporary music. Spotify and apple have fully reinvented clear channel with their label partnerships (which is only going to get worse now that they're fully buying labels). all the hype about algorithms has only masked that they put their thumbs on the scale for labels who can pay for it. anyone wanna drop some good blogs (substacks? idk) for finding good music?


oh poo poo, I guess hype machine is still running, is it still good?

Here's a few sites I've been using the last few years.

Raven Sings The Blues

WFMU is a great resource, they have 3 live streams and all of the sets are archived. If you can find a DJ there that you enjoy, there's hundreds of hours of archived sets to go through.

we're watching it right now for the first time and the contrast is incredible. colin farrell is just barely pulling it off but rachel mcadams and vince vaughn are choking hard, everything that worked in season 1 seems like parody here. it's all so "tv writing" if that makes any sense

it was definitely better than season 3 just by virtue of not being extremely boring.

wonka (2023) represents the deranged hope that the oppressed and enslaved minority groups of the world (the oompa loompas) will rise and use their inscrutable magic to save the capitalists (wonka and his carefully chosen multicultural group of helpers) from their own self-imposed doom (drowning in chocolate)
