Mickey: The Story of a Mouse

Documentary

Mickey Mouse is one of the most enduring symbols in our history. Those three simple circles take on meaning for virtually everyone on the planet. So ubiquitous in our lives that he can seem invisible, Mickey is something we all share, with unique memories and feelings. Over the course of his nearly century-long history, Mickey functions like a mirror, reflecting our personal and cultural values back at us. "Mickey:… From TMDB

    I rewatched Mickey 17 recently, and I think it’s a great movie that has a lot to say about historiography, class, and colonialism but suffered from coming out at a time when a lot of prominent people decided talking about such things was cringe

    Conservatives fume over fake claim Disney is making Mickey Mouse transgender. In a [video](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcPLvPOBEJi/) from 19 August, captioned “this might be the most controversial move ever by Disney”, a voiceover says that Disney has announced in an “official statement” the beloved mascot is “undergoing gender transition surgery to become Moxie Mouse”.

    Was just thinking about the way everybody else in the movie loves this song and gathers in the wings to listen, and to see if Mitch and Mickey kiss. It’s such a magical way to make us feel the weight of the moment.

    Just finished both "_Mickey 7_" and "_Antimatter Blues_" by Edward Ashton. I liked these a lot, actually. Liked the movie less, once I read the first book. Also finished "_Platform Decay_" by Martha Wells, book 8 of the Murderbot series. I found it to be somewhat lacklustre, perhaps the weakest of the series. I'd be curious what others think though. Currently reading, "_Ingathering: The Complete People Stories_", by Zenna Henderson. These are a bit cozy, a bit familiar. Not sure yet if I'm…

    54: Mickey 17 (2025) Fun movie, very different from what I was expecting. It's a retro sci fi story about how the future suck, and how poor people are litteraly spare meat to be grinded and recycled. But still, you can't predict how the movie will turns out. Reminded me a lot of Starship Troopers

    Amazing casting with regards to getting Lupita Nyong'o to play Helen and Elliot Page to play Sinon. Both Zendaya and Robert Pattinson were great, but they also broke the immersion for me, as I couldn't help but see them as Chani and Mickey 18 instead of Athena and Antinous. It was a good film!

    I don't think Donald's schtick was so much rudeness/viciousness as it was that he had no control over his temper and had horrible luck. I remember cartoons opening with him being perfectly pleasant but then getting more and more unhinged as the cartoon goes on and things go wrong for him. To the point of homocidal destruction of everything around him. He was a character that earned what happened to him after it happened, in his response to it. Though this was also in a world where a lot of…

    I find it ironic that this came from the creative driven minds of WB. Don't get me wrong, I like Sinners and One Battle After Another (Even if that just sounds like a James Bond film) and even stuff like The Bride and Mickey 17, but getting Tom Cruise to make a film for you just feels like a dud.
