      Well I certainly can’t judge her for the Mufasa choice because one of my earliest crushes was Kovu from the Lion King 2. And I stand by it.

      fucking hatteeeee that all interviewers talk about is TikTok trends. Sure it’s fun….but are we deadass. Don’t be surprised when no one has a personality anymore in two years

      I’m not impressed with any of these picks. If the interviewer wants to go there, then the interviewee should go further. (Although the interviewer doesn’t seem pop culture savvy if she doesn’t even know what Baymax looks like, so the exchange was going to fall flat anyway)

      These are all protagonists from popular franchises – when these questions are asked, I want to see unexpected background characters from forgotten films because I want to genuinely get a feel for their specific taste.

      Optimus Prime (rip?) is the leader who everyone can name – which means he is palatable, but therefore bland.

      Shrek is the romantic male lead in the 1st and 2nd movies, so we are supposed to view him in a positive light.

      I see Baymax on quite a few of these hear me out cakes and I think it’s a safe “silly” choice bc the design is so un-sexual.

      And I will be the one to say it – picking Mufasa is basic and a cop out.
