🙌🏾💖 FORGOTTEN ISLAND RAWW appreciation post!!!
Also super happy the film had a great 2nd weekend hold at the Box Office only dropping 44%. And I hope everyone continues to spread the word on how great this film is.
• Ever since I saw the film, I cannot get out of my head how incredibly multifaceted and amazing directors Januel Mercado & Joel Crawford, and the whole Dreamworks team made Raww.
• He put’s on such a brave front that he’s unbothered and unfazed by being alone wolf but deep down inside he really wants a chosen family. He can depend on and love.
• I know, people tend to focus on his hyper attributes and crazy antics which I also love as well, and some have tried to even frame it in a negative with him, licking his foot even though he’s clearly a wear dog. 💖 But my favorite part about him is his caring nature and his willingness to want to be loyal to his friends even if jeopardizes his situation with the memory demon.
• His bond with Joe is one of my favorite parts of the film and like I mentioned in my review, that’s pinned to my page it feels like two brothers leaning on one another to help get through a lot of pain and isolation and Ressi being the glue that makes them whole.
• Feeling alone in this world like no one understands you and being the only one like you in a space can make you feel so depressed and sad. But I’m so happy the creative team at Dreamsworks showed was this character that just because you feel alone doesn’t mean you always will be. You just have to find your tribe and luckily for him his crazy demon boss brought his tribe to island of Nicoli.
Raww is definitely now one of my favorite amorphic characters of all time, and with
#WILDWOOD,
#STEPS, and
#HEXED still to come later this year, I have a good feeling some new characters might steal my heart. 💖✨
