favorites

ACTOR: Mads Mikkelsen and/or Tom Hiddleston. i honestly can't pick one!! (⸝⸝๑﹏๑⸝⸝) also David Tennant and Robert Pattinson

ANIMAL: felines! any and all, but i will always have a soft spot for tigers

ANIMATION STYLE: 2.5d paint-looking (think Arcane and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish), cel-shaded anime and cartoons, and stuff like Soviet-era cut-out (i don't know what else to call it) films. honorary mention to the fluid and inconsistent Hazbin Hotel pilot

ANIME SERIES: Chainsaw Man S1 and Jujutsu Kaisen S3

ANIME MOVIE: Look Back (2024)

ART STYLE: a mix of chaotic linework and handpainting. also when traditional artists make their work look like it was digitally made. not to forget hyperrealism when it comes to mundane objects that are NOT human.

MOVIE (Hollywood): the Dune trilogy (2021-2026) by Denis Villenuve

MOVIE (Kollywood): too many to pick from! but Doctor (2021), directed by Nelson Dilipkumar and starring Sivakarthikeyan; Maaveeran (2023), directed by Madonne Ashwin and starring Sivakarthikeya; and Thaai Kizhavi (2026), directed by Sivakumar Murugesan and starring Radikaa Sarathkumar are some of my favorites. all of thse are dark comedies but are family-friendly and endlessly rewatchable
