This is so wholesome
Bought a second hand car a few months back. Last week the CD player started making weird noises. I've never used it before (because it's 2021, ya know). Today I get in car and it starts playing a CD that I swear was not there before.
Honest truth, I eject it and its a Best of Queen album.
It is a true thing...

You know the main problem with the “live action” Lion King? Why it looks so lifeless?
The hyper realistic style is actually limiting the animators, rather than freeing them. The style makes it much harder to have memorable character designs and good expressions. Real lions don’t need to do things like emote in a way that humans can understand – but characters in a film do. The original movie was more cartoony not due to animation limitations of the time, but because that style genuinely serves the story better.
To show you what I mean, compare these two shots of Simba, from right after Scar says “run away and never return.”
Here is a clear reaction, with a strong beat for us to connect with before the character makes a decision. Even without any dialogue, even without any context, you can understand the emotion there just by the expression and the mannerisms. Is it realistic? No! He’s bright yellow and has eyebrows. But do we empathize with him? Yes!
Meanwhile, here is… a lion. Turning and running. No expression, no beats, no character moments, nothing. He actually can’t express himself because the animators are locked into the realistic style. If they tried to animate a strong expression as warranted for the scene, it would look terrible. Is it realistic? Hell yeah! Look at those textures! Look at that fur! But do we empathize with him? …nah. Not really.
To conclude: when you’re retelling Hamlet with a bunch of animated lions, cartoonish-ness is your friend, not your enemy.

Guys I can't find a Chilumi fic and I REALLY need your help here. I think it was deleted but I still have some screenshots left. I don't remember the author's nickname T T I do remember though some crucial episodes and it's very important to me so I'll be really happy if you manage to find the author or maybe some of you even downloaded the fic. It was uploaded to ao3
1. Tartaglia tells Lumine his real name while Paimon is not around and Lumine jokes about hitting his head way too hard. They also have a small conversation about Childe's younger brother
2. Tartaglia ordered a pin with flowers for Lumine. It looks just like the one on her head. Childe couldn't get it as Dottore erased his memories, but he eventually managed to buy the pin because it reminded him of something. He spent way too much money on it even though it's nothing more than a trinket
3. Also there is an episode where Tartaglia awakens at the Teapot and talks to madam Ping. She finds out that he actually remembers this place and decides there might be still some hope left. At the same time, Zhongli, Paimon and Lumine are gathering flowers for the magical cure
4. Lumine and Tartaglia have a conversation in the Teapot. He is strongly confused because he cannot persuade himself to murder her. She calls him by his real name
5. The story has a happy end. Tartaglia disappears once more to deal with Dottore and when he finally returns, he invites Lumine and Paimon for a dinner. Everyone is silent, the mood is tense. Lumine sadly retreats to the balcony but Childe goes after her, they make up and finally kiss.
it seems to be called "echo" because Ajax got headaches every time from the reminders of erased memories and from the name of Lumin
