whoever timed the film to the music is fucking brilliant this is gorgeous and oh my god i know they’re made of a lot of fat/blubber but this gave me like seven heart attacks
the sexy monster genre may not be my thing, but I do have a certain respect for what Guillermo Del Toro is doing with the shape of water, because while cowardly media like twilight will remove all signs of monster qualities to make vampires sexy underwear models, Guillermo is just full tilt “this creepy fish man is sexy, this woman wants to fuck the creepy fish man. she wants to lick his gills or some shit and that’s ok. fish fucking is valid” like I’m not into it, but goddamnit if I do not respect the boldness of it. go big or go home
GUILLERMO DEL TORO DOESNT GO FAR ENOUGH. THAT FISH MAN STILL LOOKS LIKE A MAN. HE HAS HUMAN PROPORTIONS. A HUMAN BUTT. FEEBLE
“go big or go home” THE SEXY FISH MOVIE FALLS A LONG WAY SHORT OF “GO BIG”. GO HOME GUILLERMO. COME BACK WHEN YOUVE COMBINED THE SHAPE OF WATER AND PACIFIC RIM INTO A 2 HOUR LONG MASSIVELY BUDGETED KAIJU FUCKING NIGHTMARE
Scrapped comic concept: Sombra deconstructing the inherent failures of an imperialist, undemocratic global military force steeped in 6 feet of bitchy drama disguised as
bureaucratic infighting that 100% earned its bullet and better not fuckin come back.
Sombra just stickin legs out in front of authoritarian power hustlers lets go
