“if you’re not angry you’re not paying attention” used to be such a powerful phrase but now it’s more accurate to say “if you’re not angry you’re probably exhausted by 5+ years of Panic Outrage Mode and are nearing the limit of your emotional range for reacting to this shit”
I was thrilled to pieces when I saw this scene. Disney could have written Gideon off like some bully character who never really amounted to anything, or got what was coming to him like a lot of those characters do in their movies. Gideon made something of himself. He’s a pastry chef, something that’s not traditionally a job for men in media. And as soon as Judy speaks to him, he immediately apologizes to her. He doesn’t try to shrug it off as no big deal, or say that it was just boys being boys or whatever; he knows he hurt her, and he owns up to it. And Judy immediately forgives him.
Well done, Disney.
Also the language that he used is not something that he would have most likely grown up hearing/using. Describing his failings as self-doubt that manifested into “unchecked rage and aggression” sounds SO MUCH like therapy speak. So he’s either gotten counseling to help him with some of his problems, or sought out literature to help himself. A++ disney :)
Okay but true facts, this can make a profound impact. When I was younger, I had a friend who is trans and my mom once asked what his birth name was, and I asked, “Why does it matter?” She paused and answered something to the effect of, “You’re right, it doesn’t.”
Been doing this for a few years now. Have often been labeled as “rude” because of it, but we don’t owe anyone more information than we want to give them. Ever.
They forgot the part where the ambulance actually stopped to let the cat in
oh good I was worried
What a good cat. What a kind cat. How can anyone not love cats they are so good and loving.
they also forgot the part where they only found the baby because masha was screaming her head off bc she knew this baby was in danger. she went around outside the alley the next morning and yelled at passerby until she got one to follow her to the baby. she kept him warm all night and then made sure someone found him. she was adopted after this bc she was a stray and is in a loving home and is a hero
This is how you do a good character doing a necessary but morally wrong thing correcly..
You don’t pretend it’s right to do it.
Giles has done a lot of bad shit in his life, caused death and pain and suffering through ignorance, rebellion, and so on. He makes the choice over and over, for Buffy’s sake, to make himself darker and darker because it saves a young woman who he loves and sees as a daughter and whom he is responsible for. Like any father that loves his child, he will take every ounce of suffering unto himself just to spare her a single moment of doubt. He doesn’t regret his actions, only the necessity of them.
