Judging by the amazing response to my first set I thought you’d like some more so who’s ready for round 2
Have some more low quality shots of this anxious middle aged rat man because I just reallycannot get enough
First up is the only scene we get just Abuela and her hijo before he disappeared, this tiny scene is just so gorgeously lit but what I love most about it is Bruno’s expressions Our boy manages to convey concern, fear, sympathy and resignation all in one and that narrowing of the eyes thing he does
It’s fine Bruno, I’m fine. This is fine
Not only have I watched him fall and get up a hundred times cause it’s just so damn hilarious but FGHJLDKGF I love what his hair is doing in this shot #hairgoalsevenwhenmessyitstilllookslit
He’s literally just met his little nephew for the very first time and he just starts casually talking to Bruno like he’s known him all his life I mean what must be going through Bruno’s head in this moment can you imagine I have a lot of feelings about this one I mean I have a lot of feelings about this whole movie in general but
Antonio’s room is incredible but also the lighting of this beautiful shot omg someone give the artists an oscar or something for this also Bruno do you have to look so aesthetically pleasing you’re a fictional character dammit
Why do I find his serious concentration face so angsty omg I love it so much
His nervous little wave right before his sisters attack hug him his nervous little wave right before his sisters attack hug him tho
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh ❤️❤️❤️
Just look at this soft AF look he gives Mirabel lookit his lil smile and his soft eyes JUST LOOK AT IIIIIITTTTT
BONUS SHOT
He actually looks happy to see the townspeople coming to help them which is surprising in itself but also he’s trying to lean over Luisa so he can see them better and just look at the lil hopeful smile on his face*screams*
How did I get here having all these emotions about a fictional character all I know is he has to be protected at all costs and he deserves the world ok I’m gonna go cry now
Screenshots taken and edited by me please don’t steal them!
EDIT - soooo… Lin couldn’t bring himself to say one kind thing about John Leguizamo’s performance as Bruno? He showered everyone else with compliments and while we were watching Bruno’s scenes he was trying to distract us by tweeting photos from his Colombia trip…? I’m… a little sad and disappointed about that…

First up we have this one he’s just looking at his Mamá all watching her just walk straight past him just look at his face godammit it’s literally this emoji
Then this one which is so much worse just look at this sad little man and he’s doing that nervous thing with his hands and he just looks so sadand hurt SOMEONE GIVE HIM A HUG ITS ME I’LL GIVE HIM A HUG GODAMMIT
The man is ANGRY
Look at him being all defiant and brave with his hands on his hips even though he’s literally nearly doing the splits and looks ridiculous and probably knows it too I love this man so much
This one though probably the look that breaks my heart the most cause just look at him, look at how nervous and scared he is looking at his Mamá he looks as if he’s about to burst into damn tears how can animation convey so much emotion I mean dear god rip out my heart why don’t you
He goes down on one knee as he’s apologising to Pepa hegoes down on one knee as he’s apologising to Pepa
So this man has just been living in the walls for a decade without any human interaction and one of the first things he does upon rejoining his family is offer Pepa his hand and she takes it without a second thought cause he’s her brother and she’s missed him dearly I have a lot of emotions about this one
And finally, the smile I mean do I really have to say any words this whole scene is literally just pure serotonin and I’m drowning in my feels for this cute ass family ❤️

So I was tottering around on ao3, as one does, and besides all the gross shit and general unpleasantness that comes out the Encanto tag which would require an entirely different post I do have one comment
You guys are absolutely cracked out insane if you think the Madrigals forgot Mirabel’s quince.
These are Bruno’s twins, Beatriz and Lidia Madrigal because of fucking course Bruno had to end up having twins and four kids altogether
Honestly, I wanna think of gifts for all of Bruno’s kids
His eldest son Mateo, his gift would be super speed. He’s able to run errands, run things to people and just in general get things done faster. His problem ? He doesn’t know how to slow down and gets stressed out and anxious if things aren’t done fast enough for his liking. Bruno has to often sit with his son and do breathing exercises with him in order to get him to calm down and just take his time.
His eldest daughter Sofía is able to manipulate gravity and make things really light or really heavy, which takes some stress off of her cousin Luisa. If the donkeys or someone’s house are super light, what’s stopping the the people of Encanto from fixing it themselves for the time being ?
His daughter Beatriz can grow up to 50 feet in height, which was hell for Bruno, because imagine dealing with a 50 foot 5 year old throwing a tantrum. She wasn’t allowed to use her gift until she was old enough to keep her emotions in check and be conscious of her surroundings because they didn’t want anyone accidentally getting smushed. When she gets older, she uses her gift to carry large things or to help build things but doesn’t use it often. She’s not really fond of her gift, since it made her feel ostracized from her siblings when she was younger and made her think that she was just a danger to herself and everyone else.
His daughter Lidia, Beatriz’s twin sister, can shrink herself to about 10 inches in height, another ‘gift’ that almost gave Bruno a heart attack, because he was so scared that he was going to accidentally step on and squish his daughter or she was going to get stuck somewhere and he wouldn’t know. Lidia uses her gift to reach things in small spaces other people can’t reach, like if someone has dropped a wedding ring down a drain or something. When she gets overwhelmed, she likes to shrink herself and hide in the walls with the rats.
Can one of you artsy drawing people draw a scene where you can see Bruno behind that wall in the dining room, jamming out to that one part in “We Don’t talk about Bruno”.
My headcanon:
Bruno: Man, this is a catchy song. Sucks that it’s about me tho
A theme park design based off the wonderful movie: Encanto! The process was tough but at the end it was worth it :’)) This project is finally done! WOOHOO!!
Estella’s door!! In my head her room is like, a tower rather like Brunos? But instead of a terracotta roof she probably has glass, like a glass observatory situation so she can see the stars better and interact with them easier
I’m usually not much of an oc person but everyone has their exception I guess. Meet Estella Madrigal! The biological child of Bruno Madrigal, as well as the adopted child of Julieta and Agustin Madrigal!
Their gift is the ability to talk to the stars at night, so she acts as night-watch for the family, basically. The stars inform her of what’s currently going on in the town, so much like Dolores she can inform the rest of the family if anything weird is afoot
