#animation is not a genre

this is it, I'm at my limit now.
of all the countless classics you could've remade, y'all decided to choose the one that doesn't even qualify as a classic, one that's still SEVEN FUCKING YEARS OLD fresh off the minds of today's generation, one that actually touched my heart and had me wishing we'd get a sequel or series like they did with Frozen, Tangled, Big Hero 6, and Zootopia.
BUT NOPE.
it's official, Disney does not give a flying fuck about animation, not even their newer 3D ones, because really they only care about Marvel, Star Wars, live-action remakes, and James Cameron's sci-fi white savior power fantasy franchise because they're the ones giving them money, albeit not much since their stocks have been going down lately
so, I'm out. Eat your heart out, Disney.

I don't know what I was expecting when I looked up manatee anatomy the other day, but it was not that manatees have like. . . Fully-fledged hand bones.
Tumblr media
(They're incapable of individual finger movement but still, according to someone on Reddit that had a male manatee fall in love with her, THEY HAVE A VERY STRONG GRIP.)

Hot damn. Great question, I'd love to tell you.
High Fantasy
Look, this rainfrog is called Breviceps bagginsi, so I don't have a lot of choice, now do I?

Also, I would go with them to the end. Into the very fires of Mordor.
Low Fantasy
Phyllomedusine hylids have a certain weird clown marionette vibe to them. Just look at these Pithecopus rohdei.

Lovecraftian
The male Rhinoderma darwinii raises his tadpoles in his vocal sac.
Tumblr media
Sci-Fi
Gephyromantis pseudoasper sometimes wear handsome stripes—very Space Age™
Tumblr media
But more importantly, their calls evoke a battle with laser-blasters.
I filmed this calling male in 2017 at an obscene hour of the morning.
Horror
Trichobatrachus robustus, aka the Hairy Frog, has flanks and thighs covered in weird, hair-like outgrowths that increase oxygen exchange over its skin, and BREAKS ITS FINGERS TO STAB YOU WITH CLAWS MADE OF BONE
Tumblr media

Romance
Breviceps males physically glue themselves to the back-ends of females, and if that's not romance, I don't know what is.

Comedy
Nyctimantis arapapa are probably amongst the funniest-looking frogs out there.

Adult
The 'poly' in Polypedates may be a double entendre

Crime and Mystery
Calyptocephalella gayi is a Galaxy Brain frog.
Tumblr media

Speculative
Myobatrachus gouldii is basically what would happen if you decided to try to build a turtle, but you only had frog pieces in the kit.
