I hate how the movie "Descendants" treats Jay, Evie, and Carlos. Especially Carlos. Am I the only person who's read "Isle of the Lost" by Melissa De Cruz? I feel like the movie HUGELY underestimated everyone's character but Mal's, which REALLY annoys me. Carlos was a lot more emotionally confused and had a much more developed character. So did Jay and Evie. In the movie, it's like the only person given any attention is Mal.

Sorry, I just recently watched this movie with my young See More cousins, and I need somewhere to rant.

When I see a movie like "Descendants" or read a book series like "Ever After High," all I see is the wasted potential. These things that have been turned into kids movies actually could have deep emotional and philosophical meaning. Huge expectations, unclear lines between right and wrong, tough choices between family and individuality..... These series (and many others) could've been SO amazing as a YA fiction series or a movie aimed at older audiences. I mean, seriously. What See More if YOU had been raised stuck in one place your whole life, abused by your parents and given huge standards that you still really want to reach because... Well, they're you're parents, no matter what, and you just want them to love you. You're constantly striving to get that love and attention from them, and your constant failure makes you feel worse and worse. It's not even until someone from a far off place -- almost like a fairytale world to you -- decides to give you a second chance and let you into their world that you start to question the thin lines between right and wrong. In this entirely strange and difficult new world, you not only struggle to fit in and be accepted -- which you've been struggling with all of your life -- but you actually start to wonder if you've been wrong about what your moral standards should be for your whole life. But just as soon as you start to feel like you could actually change, the people here show their true colors and totally reject you. Convinced that even your own nasty parents would be more accepting than these people, you start to turn against them. But there are more complications -- you're wondering if you're falling in love, which your parents would NOT approve of. You can't tell which side is right and which is wrong or which you should choose....

True...

Funny how, on an OUAT RP, I had decided Rumpelstiltskin and Belle would be my parents.... Little did I realize that the Dark One and I are the same personality type. Which type are you?

Interesting.

~RANT WARNING~

OK, I am getting REALLY tired of overpowered OCs. I always try to make sure that my characters either have one decent power or several smaller ones. Then I go and see people with blessings from a bunch of gods, time travel, mind reading (at absolutely every level), and at least three or more powers. It's really just getting on my nerves, especially when the maker of a page specifically requests that there be no more than a certain number of powers. Seriously, why? See More We live normal lives with NO powers, and we're awesome. Why do we have to add on so many cool things like that? It makes me really frustrated and mad. It ruins the RP (or book, or movie, or TV show) when one character is this ultimate superpower with ALL of the elements, flight, mind control, telepathy, and time travel and the other character has pyrokinesis (the ability to control and make fire) and the ability to tell when someone's lying. Seriously, people. Tone it down.

I hate when people say that INFJs are bratty for lording their rarity over other types. This is NOT TRUE. I'm an INFJ, and my biggest dream is to be understood; my complex and rare personality makes that extremely difficult. There's no way in heck that I'm going to brag about the thing I dislike the most about myself.

Scratch that. This quiz is taking a lot of time and I may have to leave in a bit; I'm hoping that it'll be completed by sometime tomorrow.

I deleted my "Personality Quiz" due to it's horrid inaccuracy. Making a new one now.

My Disney Princesses/Heroines quiz is actually based off of the MBTI. I made a quiz for that earlier, but it was too short and inaccurate. A website typed a bunch of Disney princesses and heroines and I made a quiz out of it. Your result is actually based off of your type, not necessarily the character -- although the character should be very similar to you since you're both from the same group. The images that come with each personality have four letters that indicate your type; See More be sure to look it up!
