I Am Following Them Now!

Alright, I know it’s out there and I need it.

Who has the Great Gatsby Slime Tutorial. Cough it up please and thank you.

(Genuinely I, like a lot of people, Really want to see it, and if I see one more clip of it on my TikTok and can’t watch the full thing I’m going to scream)

god I hate people who say they don't watch musicals because people "just don't burst out into song and highly choreographed dance numbers at will-"

how fucking stupid are you

people don't run around like john wick getting shot and still standing up either or meet cute rich millionaires at coffee shops who wanna marry poor women from the bronx or have super powers and shit but somehow you can comprehend that just fine in other fictional media.

what is so fucking hard to comprehend about a story and emotions being conveyed through fucking song

have you never felt a human emotion in your entire life, can you not comprehend joyful noises or somber sounds, can you not understand a soliloquy or the troubled internal dialogue of a person in pain

do you not like music???

is there a single person on this earth who has never found one sound that they enjoy, played in repetition??

either stop lying to protect your pathetic pride or grow an extra brain cell or two and actually think about what you are saying.

"people don't sing or dance in real life-"

yes they do, when they're not a miserable cuck like you, it's just not always to a discernible beat.

you have lived your entire life with your heart and mind and soul closed to others.

you should kill your-

POV: Erik kidnaps you

"why we build the wall" from hadestown is really gonna trip up future media analysis students. they'll be like "ah a piece of media from the 2010s referencing building a wall to keep out the poor, clearly this is a reference to the president of the united states from 2016-2020", and then their professor will have to be like "actually the concept album for this musical came out in 2010"

it does kindaaa disappoint me as to how little elizabeth's faults are acknowledged by the general public in comparison to darcy's. so much praise of the book (and the more faithful adaptations) paint the story as if darcy was solely both pride and prejudice, and committed an error far greater than elizabeth's, and elizabeth is just some girlboss who roasts him.

i understand darcy is the love interest and with a target audience of women, seeing the steps he takes to change himself, is charming and would be a greater highlight, and that's no problem at all! i, too, am one of the many women swooning sighing dreamily over darcy! but it's such a shame when i see people present the characters one-sidedly when both characters recognizing their faults is so crucial to the story and arguably, its biggest charm

ok no one told me this, so just so everyone else knows:

Cinderella’s Castle has hella puppets. it has incredible puppets. holy fuck does this show have puppets.

i love puppets so much and these puppets are so good. like, these are some phenomenal puppets i dont know how to cope. I’m going to be drawing these characters until i die, this is it for me.

saw a theory that the SmokeStack twins were posing as one man in Chicago, which helped them get away with stealing from both sides. i'm poised to believe that because visually their clothing was very clearly of the two mobs. smoke was full irish— tweed, bowler hat. while stack had the full mafia look. yk italian leather shoes, fedora etc etc . like the details!!

That's it. That's the post.

Ella and her critters and the step-family

Close ups under cut

I actually adore the ending of Cinderella's Castle. Like some people wish there was more to it (which is valid ofc!) but IT'S literally so perfect to me. Ella showing up in the audience? Always love when that happens in theatre. The reveal of how she's back through the shoes technically being on her feet again? Gotta love a suprise loophole. Her standing on the block like the Fairy Queen was to indicate the power she now has? Wonderful parallel. Her throwing the Step-Mother's words back at her? Especially the 'allow me to reacquaint you with your fear' ? Absolutely DELICIOUS eating it up. And of course the cherry onto is the Ash to Ash reprise with Bryce's angelic vocals. It's absolutely perfect.
