I Think Skimbleshanks Is Really Cool

One thing that I haven't seen many people talk about is just how great og pekes and pollicles is???

like not to be a hater but I kinda don't like the 2016 version of it (where it's moved to after gus) cuz while it makes sense the execution is kinda meh??

like why did you take the funniest part out of a COMEDIC NUMBER

The whole point of it is to show these "perfect cats" messing everything up!!!

and you take that out???? (not to mention the lack of bagpipes tugger is so sad rip)

and gus singing it isn't bad (he does a pretty good job) but like....

it was basically munkustrap's song. Without the cats messing it up and munk getting mad at them, munk is just "perfect protector guy" and frankly, that's less interesting than having him tired theater dad-ing :( it's like seeing another side of him and I love that!

the number has so much personality that just gets taken away :(((

I get why they moved it, to replace growltiger (obvs) and it was kinda in an awkward spot, sandwiched in between old deuteronomy and jellicle ball, but it never feels jarring in that spot (maybe cuz the whole musical is jarring lmao)

it really scares you with the macavity scare cuz you just had this really silly number and then BANG

(I get why some productions (rccl lol) cut it tho, the whole needing extra costume pieces + not introducing any new characters makes it a really easy number to cut)

What makes me sad is that you can still put it after gus the theater cat and still make it just as charming!!

like what if munk was trying to hide the fact that they're messing it up from gus or smth?that would be adorable T-T

but instead they just perform it perfectly like all the other numbers and it makes it really forgettable :((

anyways I have too many thoughts about this musical

ugh. forget everything i’ve ever said. unless you thought it was smart or funny in which case remember it forever

mood

I don’t know what I’m doing

I hate it when I'm crying and people tell me to "just breath"

bitch I'm trying?????

I know I sound like a drowning fish but like

I'm just really bad at it.

So we were watching a movie in class of this old play we're gonna be reading

and like

that's just straight up Miss Glinda The Good Witch™

like girly is doing THE MOST with her outfit and I'm kinda living for it tbh
