Can we talk about the fact that The Cheetah girls only had zero white main characters? I think that's pretty great! I don't have much room as I am white, myself. But it's definitely something! Especially considering the fact the movie came out back in 2003.
I didn't watch it when it first came out, as I was only a year old. But I did later on when I was a kid! And I still listen to them!
Anyway, can anyone fact check me and see just how good the representation was in this movie?

"The current head of that ward, an alienist named Menas Gregory, had been trying for years to change that haunted reputation. He angrily defended people in his care, many of whom had been brought in against their will when their families had them declared crazy. The lost occupants of his ward needed help, Gregory argued, not mockery, not groundless fear. He worried at how slow people accepted that, even in his own institution. 'There is, at the present time, no place where these patients may receive proper treatment."
Deborah Blum, 'The Poisoner's Handbook'.

In 1747, a newly married couple – John Ferren and Deborah Nolan – were discovered to both be women after the wedding, but the marriage was not challenged: 'The supposed John Ferren was discovered after ye ceremony were over, to be in person a woman.'

Random headcanons on the Weston boys
Okay since Weston anime is out, I’ll be sharing some headcanons I’ve collected during 10+ years of being obsessed with this saga and its characters.
I’ve been so invested into these headcanons that I consider them to be canon at this point. Anyway please don’t be mad if they don’t match your personal headcanon, it’s still my own interpretation and silly ideas about characters that don’t belong to me so anyone can disagree.
First I’m gonna write down the ones that involve more than one character, then I’ll be more specific and list them by character.
Brace yourselves for a pile of totally self-indulging blabbering.
Lawrence and Edgar are canonically childhood friends (Yana confirmed it), I like to think they grew up together thanks to their mothers being best friends with each other.
While Lawrence and Edgar already knew each other since birth, they met Herman and Gregory during their first year at Weston.
Because of the rivalry, friendship between students from different dorms has always been rather frowned upon, so the boys decided to put all their efforts in becoming the best students of their respective dorm to one day become Prefects and be free to meet and be friends without being judged by other students.
To freely chat and keep in contact prior to becoming P4, they secretly exchanged letters hidden among the library’s textbooks.
While we know Lawrence has 7 sisters, Edgar and Herman don’t have any sibling, while Gregory has an older brother. He’s doesn’t talk about him often as they’re not very close and don’t get along well.
Gregory met Cheslock while he was at his 3rd year (Cheslock is one year younger). They often spent their free time in their dorm’s common room, Cheslock would practice violin and Gregory would silently sit near him while drawing. One day he made a portrait of Cheslock and left it near him as a gift with the encouraging inscription “Keep playing”. The next day Cheslock asked him if he had any request for him on what to play, and that’s how they started talking to each other.
Headcanons by single character
Edgar:
His zodiacal sign is sagittarius
He has a sweet tooth and would live on sweet food alone
His maternal grandmother is french
His noble title comes from his mother, who is a Viscountess and older sister to Viscount of Druitt
He’s either pan or gay
Lawrence:
His zodiacal sign is capricorn
He’s ambidextrous (he usually writes with his right hand but is more comfortable doing other activities with his left one)
His sisters’ names are: Isabel (6 years older than him), Deborah (4 years older than him), Madelyn (2 years older than him), Adela (the only one to have a canonical name, 5 years younger than him), Rebecca (the one who has a crush on Edgar, 7 years younger than him), Rosalind and Amelia (identical twins, 9 years younger than him)
His father is a banker
Pretty sure he’s either ace or gay
Herman:
His zodiacal sign is libra (though I feel like aries might suit him better)
He took after his mother the most
He’s notoriously good at many sports, but he’s not very good at dancing (he’s not graceful enough for that kind of activity)
He’s good at cooking
He’s either a straight ally or a disaster bi
Gregory:
His zodiacal sign is cancer (mayhap also aquarius could suit him tho)
He used to wear charcoal and inks as make-up in his early years at Weston
His father is a politician
He’s kind of a picky eater and doesn’t like meat and seafood
He’s 100000% ace-spec
Cheslock:
His zodiacal sign is scorpio
His iconic “scar” is actually make-up, though beneath it he does have a smaller scar on his left eyelid, which is the result of a quarrel with his sister when they were kids
His father is a surgeon
His full name is Victor Theodore, which he hates
Pretty sure he’s bi
I might add more in the future, though I don’t have many headcanons for other characters but who knows.
Also I’m up for asks to chit chat about what I’ve shared, or for other headcanons o/

Primal Fear will be released on 4K UHD + Blu-ray on March 26 via Paramount. The Golden Globe-winning 1996 mystery thriller is the 43rd entry in the Paramount Presents line of collector’s editions.
Gregory Hoblit (Fracture, Frequency) directs from a script by Steve Shagan (Gotti) and Ann Biderman (Public Enemies), based on William Diehl's 1993 novel. Richard Gere, Laura Linney, John Mahoney, Alfre Woodard, Frances McDormand, and Edward Norton star.
Primal Fear is presented in 4K with Dolby Vision and Dolby TrueHD 5.1 audio. Special features are listed below, where you can also see the complete, fold-out packaging.
Special features:

The Final Verdict
Star Witness: Casting Edward Norton
The Psychology of Guilt
Theatrical trailer
Richard Gere stars as Martin Vail, a famed defense lawyer who volunteers his services to Aaron Stampler (Edward Norton), a Kentucky teenager charged with the murder of a Chicago archbishop. Covered with blood, Aaron was captured after a foot chase broadcast live on TV, making a gleeful Vail certain that he could raise his profile by defending the obviously guilty suspect. Assigned to prosecute is Assistant District Attorney Janet Venable (Laura Linney), who is Vail's ex-girlfriend. Vail's case becomes more complicated than he expected when a psychologist, Dr. Molly Arrington (Frances McDormand) concludes that Stampler suffers from multiple personality disorder. Vail also uncovers evidence that the archbishop was involved in a corrupt land scheme and may have molested young parishioners. Now the cynical, opportunistic attorney is faced with a daunting prospect: a client who may actually deserve his best defense.
Pre-order Primal Fear.

Processando a ausência de Rita Lee
Ser adolescente na época em que a internet estava abrindo portas foi um negócio meio louco, e a gente acabava dissociando tanto daquela realidade que insistia em nos marginalizar que muitos da minha geração passaram a simplesmente odiar o Brasil e tudo que o representa.
E aí vinha aquela coisa de falar inglês, sonhar com Disneylândia… vai um best of both worlds pra lá, um heart of glass pra cá, e eu podia jurar de pé junto que não existia nada de agradável em nosso país.
Foi aí que conheci Rita Lee Jones.
Rita Lee veio até mim durante o auge da minha (eterna) obsessão pela década de oitenta, logo quando decidi encaixar todo meu conhecimento sobre as experiências americanas da década em nossa realidade brazuca. Queria dar uma festinha temática baixo-orçamento para celebrar com meus amigos, e queria também um pouco de autenticidade.
O álbum Saúde, de 81, foi minha primeira grande paixão brasileira. Surpreendi mamãe, que achava um pouco estranho finalmente compreender — e cantar junto — as músicas que ouvia (embora ela achasse que Ritinha não batesse muito bem das ideias de vez em quando). O primeiro filme nacional que vi sem ser O Auto Da Compadecida (quase uma obrigação para nascidos no nordeste) foi Dias Melhores Virão, de 89, justamente por ter participação da artista.
A minha primeira peça de teatro? Rita Lee Mora ao Lado.
Meu primeiro livro da Laerte? Storynhas, presente de uma grande amiga da época.
Carmen Miranda foi a grande embaixadora da cultura brasileira durante a Segunda Grande Guerra, mas a Sra. Jones teve a (não tão nobre, porém importante) missão de assumir esse posto na vida de um rapaz que precisava redescobrir o Brazil com S.
Rita dizia que enquanto estivesse viva e cheia de graça talvez fizesse um monte de gente feliz. Fui, e sou, parte dessa gente. Ritinha, arrombar festas não vai ser mais tão divertido sem você querendo comer a Música Popular Brasileira, mas sempre lembrarei de ti vendo filmes com Gregory Peck ou Deborah Kerr. Prometo tratar bem da minha saúde, e não esquecerei de por caldo de carne em banho maria no macarrão.
Sofrer com despedidas é inevitável, mas estou certo que, à noite, olharei pro céu e verei a luz — não de um avião ou de uma estrela, mas de seu disco voador.
Obrigado.
