Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I assumed it was his own idea, and that tvis was not the first time he's done this to work around his curse.

Obvious question? How does he get back to the water? Did someone carry him there? What the fuck?

That's one of my favorite details of this scene; if you look behind him, you can see other buckets staggered out toward the sea.

They laid out stepping buckets so he could walk all the way there himself 😂

aren't they a little bit too far from each other to walk no? More like hopping

From the way he bounces around swinging a sword on top of the mast of a ship swirling halfway down a maelstrom, I don't doubt that Dave was able to manage it. And that's ignoring his teleporting trick.

If you look, there's a path of buckets behind him.

The movie is just about flying a boat through the edge of the world to get a dead person back... There's no reason to ignore physics or other such things.

Did anybody mention the buckets in the background? Dave walked there squidself.

This always bugged me because it means he can go on land anytime he wants as long as he ties bags of water around his feet. Like a reverse diving suit. Or are we supposed to believe that the loophole only applies to buckets?

[–] cynar@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago

It's possible it only applied to tidal zones. Areas that the sea covers regularly. It's fine when covered in sea water would be a reasonable loophole.

It's his reassurance bucket.
