...

so the other day madison posted on her story, asking people to stop messaging the girls in hopes of reaching her, and that she’ll do better at looking/responding to dms

guys this literally disgusted me. the fact that SHE NEEDED TO PUBLICLY SAY THAT !!!!!

first of all, NO ONE should be messaging jadah, carolynn, tori, savannah, etc etc, JUST FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF TALKING/ASKING ABOUT MADI !!! all these women are their own individual person, who do not deserve to feel used, and/or unappreciated. if you are going to message ANY of these girls, it should only be to talk to THEM about THEM ! i can not even begin to imagine what they must feel, when they think that maybe a fan is messaging them to talk to THEM, and it turns out to be someone asking about their friend. and this isn’t just about madison, it’s also when people dm carolynn about jeremy. put yourself in their shoes, and try to imagine what it’s like to work equally as hard on a project, just to have people only reach out to you to talk/ask about your partners….it’s not okay ! just message the person directly if you wanna say something, it’s that simple.

second, madison has no obligation to look, respond, or acknowledge any dms from us. and the fact that she felt like she needed to say she was “going to do better” just shows that we as a fandom need to do better. and before someone says ‘well it would be rude…’ or any other crap like that, think of it like this, when you have requests in your dms, from STRANGERS do you give them the time of day ? do you feel the need to respond ? so why would it be different for her ? just because she has a large fan base ? it’s not, because at the end of the day, she is a normal 16 year old girl. i don’t want to say it’s a privilege of ours, that she, and the rest of the cast, respond to dms, but i honestly can’t think of another word to describe it. she literally doesn’t even have to look at anyone’s messages, yet she does, and sometimes she responds to them, and if this continues, she may just stop.

as a fandom we need to do better. i think people forget, that madison, and the rest of the cast are regular people. we’re lucky to be a part of a fandom where the celebrities interact so much with their fans, but if this behavior continues, i truly believe so will the interactions.

i love all of you guys, and i know most of the people who have done this really never meant any harm, but we all need to change.

Okay seriously. Reblog if you're OLDER than 11.

I just realised yet another little detail that symbolises so much in the story!

During Dos Orugitas, we see a young Alma Madrigal that seemed to be cheerful, playful and even a little clumsy. The braided hair, the frilly dress and the big smiles help create an image of her as a sweet, carefree young woman who was not afraid to just be herself.

Once the tragedy with Pedro happens and the miracle is born, Alma immediately takes shelter in casita and we see her alone, silently processing the events of the evening; looking extremely weary, lonely and traumatised. She looks down at her babies. Her Julieta, her Pepa and her Brunito, and her expression changes. She knows she needs to be strong for them. She’s resolute, but there’s a sadness in her eyes that says she knows what this means for her, too. She can never go back to the woman she used to be.

The next time we see Alma, she is putting on a black cloak and leaving the room. This room was the cocoon where she transformed into a new person, leaving her old self behind. She’s become different. Her smile doesn’t quite meet her eyes anymore. She looks tired, somber. Older, even.

There’s a shadow, a trauma she’s carrying that soon takes form in the perfectionism and control that eventually hurt her loved ones. This event shapes the way she deals with challenges from this moment on, and she is always in fear of the family losing their home once again.

She became harsh. Strict. Everything has to be perfect in order to protect and earn the miracle the love of her life granted their family with his noble sacrifice.

This is an incredibly strong woman who has been through hell and came out alive, for her family’s sake. This black cloak follows her from her young years to her old age, and becomes a constant throughout the movie. It represents the weight and the burden of the grief she silently carried ever since that moment, and will continue to carry for the rest of her life. It represents the change she had to go through, putting her emotions last in order to become the strong matriarch her kids and the village needed. It represents the loss of not only her beloved Pedro, but also of her innocence, her youth, her laughter and her smile.

From the moment young Alma Madrigal and her children were gifted a miracle, she became the one responsible for the whole village. She, as the only one blessed with the magic and the one whose gift repelled the enemies, was naturally placed in a position of power and leadership in the worst moment of her life.

It’s likely she was the one everyone immediately looked to for directions right after the miracle happened, and that she had to leave her feelings behind to help other lost and grieving people rebuild their lives and their homes, creating what the village of Encanto eventually became. She put everyone else first. She was extremely selfless.

Alma Madrigal is such a complex character. There are so many layers to her personality. This is why you guys can’t just write her off as a villain or as a horrible person/grandmother. It’s not so black and white.
