Happy 20th Anniversary Sinbad!!! A Very Special Movie That Unfortunately Bombed Super Hard And Was Immediately

happy 20th anniversary sinbad!!! a very special movie that unfortunately bombed super hard and was immediately forgotten by everyone. except me! i love this movie and i think there’s a lot to love about it: beautifully fluid animation and great character designs, compelling story, an iconic and gorgeously animated villain, roots in greek mythology, great action sequences and a killer score. at the heart of it lies the complex, tender and tragic dynamic between sinbad, proteus and marina that i’ve been obsessed with for the past 20 years.

it could’ve used some rewrites and sadly some of the cgi has not aged well, but if you’re an animation lover, sinbad is worth your time; it doesn’t deserve to be forgotten like it has been, and it certainly doesn’t deserve to be blamed for killing theatrical hand-drawn animation (katzenberg if i see you on the street it’s on sight). if anything, this movie is a reminder of how stunning and full of personality hand-drawn animation can be! i think it’s something special and that it deserves to be remembered fondly. a very happy 20th anniversary to dreamworks’ last traditionally animated film!

Like the tides

He almost doesn't recognize himself when he starts to clean and check and busy himself, just so that he doesn't have to feel like doing nothing. There is something that keeps him moving. An itching for something more. But how can he tell Marina, when it must be that he's bored, that the thrills of the life as a pirate seem to be what's missing. She said she'd figure it out, but if Sinbad trusts in one thing more than her it's his talent for fucking a good thing up.

Sinbad and Marina sail the seas together, but something's missing. Proteus has duties and should be used to being on his own by now. Some understandings take time.

Oh hey look! It's the first chapter of my entirely self indulgent Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas OT3 fic! Only took me 5 years to write this lol. But I'm pretty happy that it's done and I made it through, I gotta say.

^right now it’s really popular with anything game of thrones related.

I really like how it can be used for men vs men, men vs self or men vs nature and society, cherry on top biblical symbolism

@florencebb I've never heard the song before now, but I think I'm going to add it to my playlist for writing inspiration
