OKAY MUPPETS IT IS TIIIIME FOR EZZYS OPINION HOUR

i saw the mean girls movie yesterday and i have THOUGHTS. spoilers below the cut but general thoughts up here

1. is it objectively not a super great movie? yes

2. is it my new favorite movie? yes

3. will i defend this movie tooth and nail from people who don’t like it just bc it’s a musical or bc they’re a 2004 purist? YES

4. did this movie make me feel so many conflicting emotions back to back i have now had a tummyache for 24 hours? YESSS

5. will i ever, ever, EVER IN MY LIFE forgive tina fey for the ending? no.

alright babes welcome to below the elementary school gym class parachute

last spoiler warning!!

these aren’t all in order and are most definitely not all the thoughts i had bc i have the memory storage of a flea and once an experience is over it is GONE FROM MY HEAD so this is the list of thoughts i struggled to put together when i got home lmao

overall thoughts:

it felt very gimmicky. the stage production felt gimmicky too but in a fun way, this was gimmicky in a way that kinda gave me a touch of the ick

it did not feel to me very much like a cohesive movie. it felt like browsing ig or tiktok and just seeing a hodgepodge of scenes stuck together. which is a cool idea but idk how well it worked in practice and i also don’t know if it was intentional.

this is not the word i’m looking for but in terms of personality they absolutely whitewashed all of the characters and i really don’t care for that. the visuals and the casting were so immaculate but in terms of personality they just made them all taste like unsweetened corn flakes.

i’m biased and didn’t care for most of the tweaks they made to the songs individually BUT i think they blended with each other more cohesively than they do in the stage production so that was cool. and i am able to understand why they made them more pop-esque than theatre-y it’s just not my personal vibe

it all felt very emma watson’s beauty and the beast. like. not deserving of much hate but also just not as good. it has its time and place but i still just. the changes they made were too much for me. that being said i am gonna be the #1 viewer whenever it’s released to streaming platforms was not kidding when i said this is a new favorite movie

the whole like. tiktok and iphone camera thing was an interesting??? idea. i really liked it for cautionary tale but the rest. i think it was a better idea than the way they executed it.

i miss do this thing!! i wish they had done like a mashup with it and the stupid with love reprise but i wasn’t mad at the reprise so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

fourth wall break was real cringe!!

thoughts abt cady:

angourie is so cute!!!!!!! she has the perfect look for cady. her costumes were kinda yikes but physically she’s mwah chefs kiss perfection

cady is so viscerally autistic in this version and it is DELIGHTFUL

but again i feel like they took so much from her. in the show she’s this overexcited little bubbly (autistic again but still) thing and she’s naive and then it’s revealed she’s conniving and manipulative and has this serious dark streak in her. in the movie it felt like she was just. awkward and then straight to conniving and manipulative. it was interesting but i miss my little jumping bean i wish they had given her some more spice

this movie has turned me into a cadina shipper of THE HIGHEST ORDER i’m already writing a fic for them and i call diiiiibs nobody else do it i write slow /j

i honestly really liked what ifs. i didn’t enjoy it as much as it roars but i think for the screen and for angourie’s voice it was a better fit. and i think it blended better with the new versions of the songs than it roars would have. not mad at it and the staging of it was really cool

cady being the one with a single parent is so interesting to me!! idk why they did that but i think it’s interesting. makes me wonder what happened to her dad but also go mom!!! women in stem!!!

her relationship with the art freaks was so???? weird??? it seemed like damian was the only one who really wanted all of them to be friends. i love this version of janis and damian together but when they were with cady it was all just so BLAND. it didn’t really feel like she and janis were friends at all which is what’s supposed to make the betrayal sting so much

whatever they were aiming for with someone gets hurt they missed hard bc holy cadina batman that shits gay dude BUT THE STAGING WAS SO COOL with everyone like frozen and then they all kick back in all crazy with the music it was great

janis thoughts:

THEY FUCKING RUINED HEEEEEEEER

AULI’I WAS SO PERFECT SHE WAS SO CUTE AND HER OUTFITS ARE SO COOL BUT THEY JUST TOOK AWAY ALL OF HER PERSONALITY

janis is supposed to be spunky and angry and hurt and vengeful and quirky and out there and firey and she’s meant to HAVE GRIT GOTDANGIT but again she just felt so whitewashed. like here’s a vaguely leftist lesbian in ripped jeans and cool eyeshadow that’s janis right?? LIKE NO IT IS NOT

i’d rather be me, while it had a little less vocal oomph behind it than the stage show, was as transcendent as i hoped for and i got chills multiple times. also the comedic timing of the bus was immaculate and the sound it made made me cackle

i can’t tell how i feel about the new middle school incident. i think it takes so much of the pain out of it for janis which is meant to be her main motivator. she was not supposed to be KICKED OUT she was PULLED OUT but i do kind of like that they clearly made it where regina kissed a girl and liked it and freaked out and that was the catalyst for everything

i do not ship this version of cadnis and that to me is unforgivable. they have sooo little chemistry as friends let alone lovers i just can’t stand it. janis doesn’t ever even seem like she wants cady around. it seems so much like they took away what makes janis janis just to turn her into another catalyst for regina and cady’s stories

apex predator was fun!! i honestly like it being janis and damian singing it better than janis and cady i think it works better as a warning and stuff! and also the band in the tree made me laugh so hard. i’m glad cady had them as her tour guides but again that’s all it felt like they were to each other and i miss them being a little posse

REVENGE PARTYYYYYYUH. i thought the staging was really fucking weird?? like all the pastels and shit didn’t really fit i would’ve much preferred it to start like that and then have blood dripping down the walls or something when they’re talking ABOUT PEOPLES HEADS ON SPIKES. but musically it was my favorite of everything!! i’m so happy they put the original verse back i almost screamed out loud in the theater when i heard it!!!!!

i never thought i would say this but i wish they had not canonically made her a lesbian. i will never forgive tina fey for having her end up with that random girl. no shade to the girl, she’s gorgeous and i’m glad we got some on screen, good, healthy queer rep. but in my eyes that is absolutely just a cop out because they know people wanted her to end up with cady or regina. they’re spitting on us and saying “here have your fucking lesbian and enjoy it this is what you get” and expect us to be happy with it. i get so angry every time i think about it and it honestly kind of ruined the whole thing for me. i would rather she have ended up with kevin g again. or like. honestly damian romantically would’ve made more sense in a twisted fucked up way. i just absolutely hate how they handled that.

damian thoughts:

HE! WAS! PERFECT! i am a grey henson stan first and a human being second but by golly he might be my new favorite. comedic timing on point and the fact we barely get to hear him sing is a FELONY. he was delightful and i love him also we love black queer rep!!! fuck yeah!!!! his bit with the fan before id rather be me. sent me into the dang stratosphere i love him so much

ALSO HIS DATE AT RHE END WE LOVE THESTRE BOYYYYY!!! ugh so cute i love

regina thoughts:

HOW DID THEY MAKE HER SUCH A COWARD???? HOW DO YOU TAKE A CHARACTER WITH SO MUCH POWER AND FUCK HER UP THIS BAD???

again everything that’s a core tenet of her personality was removed. i wasn’t afraid of her which is a CRIME bc renee on broadway’s regina was TERRIFYING. she just felt like one of those girls that every hs has like 7 of. they’re a dime a dozen, they’re rich and hot shit and they know it but you don’t care what they do because you know they’ll be divorced and broke and probably fat at your 10 year reunion. it’s giving peaked in high school and not queen bee which is really sad honestly

it made cady seem so much more evil tho?? like regina seemed. hurt. and cady was still so gung ho about taking her down. and it made janis seem much more manipulative too. i don’t care for either of those things

her costumes were so weird??? half that shit regina would not touch with a ten foot pole but it’s renee and she would and she’s hot so i do not care. also this isn’t a criticism but her halloween costume was giving gargoyle more than angel lol

plastics thoughts:

gretchen again felt really reductive. she was all anxiety. not that gretchen isn’t that onstage but it just felt like that was her entire personality. but bebe was adorable and i loved what’s wrong with me she did a great job

avantika was DELIGHTFUL. i loved her so much more than i was expecting to she was the only one where i never had a moment like “i am watching people acting in a movie they are repeating written lines” it felt much more like fluid with her. 10/10 beautifully done to her

aaron thoughts:

HOW DID THEY MAKE HIM MORE BORING????? MY GOD

he was already the most redundant character in the whole goddamn thing and they somehow made him even more useless. he could’ve been removed from the movie entirely and it would’ve changed NOTHING. he is white bread if he was a spice he’d be flour. didn’t think it was possible to make him more that but by golly they did it

HOW DID HE AND CADY END UP TOGETHER HE HAS THE CHEMISTRY OF A BRICK WALL. she has so much more romantic fire and chemistry with regina this is some of the most comphet shit i’ve ever seen. it’s giving wicked levels of comphet like gooooddamn.

misc. thoughts:

THAT LINDSAY LOHAN CAMEO HAD ME OUTBOF MY SEAT I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING BUT IT WAS AMAZING also that “i don’t know your life” was mwah

MS NORBURY SND MR DUVALLLL WERE SO CUUUUUTE i squealed ngl i love them

overall like 7/10 good movie i’m angry about a whole bunch but this is also amazing i’m so glad we got this new content and i am definitely hyperfixating on it now. so not that different from my stage show opinions lol

#ik this sounds like i’m shitting on it a lot but i promise i’m not #i absolutely loved it #i’m glad this amazing show is more accessible to people now #would absolutely recommend seeing it #i just have a lot of feelings #i feel like a parent #disappointed but not surprised and at the end of the day still absolutely in love #thus concludes opinion hour with ezzy #which actually took me almost exactly an hour to write #hope you enjoyed see you next time lol #entropy with ezzy #mean girls #mean girls musical #mean girls 2024 #caps tw #swear tw

I made this post on a discord with my buddies, but I enjoyed writing this out so much it gets posted here too. Slight Locked Tomb spoilers ahead.

So! For those interested and in need of background, Gideon the Ninth is the first book in the Locked Tomb series. So far the plot follows two characters, Gideon and Harrow who are both of the Ninth house. Harrow has been called by the Necrolord supreme, the Ressurected Emperor (the setting of the Locked Tomb takes place in a weird, necromantic version of the 1000 year reign of the saints from revelation. It is unknown if the Emperor is Jesus himself or if merely a necromancer who stakes the claim to that misunderstood poem-prophesy) to become a Lyctor (a demigod saint of undeath, who leads humanity's expansion and dominion through the stars. Think a Primarch from Warhammer 40k and you're on the right path).

In order to do so they are summoned to the planet of the House of the First (the Emperor's personal house and definitely Earth) from the House of the Ninth (location of the eponymous Locked Tomb and definitely Pluto) With Harrow to undergo trials and Gideon to act as her bodyguard.

The place that they arrive in (as well as all other prospective future Lyctors) is a massive castle built as its own island in the ocean itself, if you need help visualizing, think an oil rig but instead of a massive industrial building its a castle that doubles as a surface-to-space landing station. This is Canaan House, (probable) palace of the Emperor himself.

Chapter 7 of the book devotes its entirety to the description of Canaan House as Gideon explores it out of intrigue. The first thing the reader learns is that even the most livable areas of the house have become subject to oceanic decay; the air is usually humid, stuffy, and mold can grow nearly everywhere. Just in the suite that Harrow and Gideon are staying in, their bathroom has cracked and broken walls, who's tiled floor has patches of mold growing in the corner.

The great dining hall that is open for all of the teams from the houses to use has an immense glass roof, it now has netting underneath the roof so that birds don't get into the hall via the person-sized holes in the glass. Terraces have crumbled, gardens have wilted, and seaweed has grown in the lower sections of the castle proper. It's described both as a place that's too big and too dense: each door leads to another chamber, and stairwells cleverly loop back to previous rooms for expedient travel.

Some entire paths have been consumed by the ocean itself. Gideon finds a walkway which was intended to be pleasantly below or near the sea level, only now its tiles have been completely covered with seaweed to the extent that they look like little heads of hair swaying under the water.

Doors have rotted away so much that one might "Voyeuristically look through their nakedness to the rooms they didn't hide," immense swimming pools have turned green with mold, and training rooms have merely rusted away.

The book paints this slow, creeping change as inevitability rather than evil; there are no signs of struggle, no signs of battle, no marks of violence. The house is simply being eroded away by ocean and time.

This isn't to say that Canaan House isn't magnificent -- it most certainly still is -- but the rot and decay brought on by time and the ocean have given a new form to it's splendor, one which is appropriate for a place enhabited by old priests and skeleton-automata.

How fitting then, that the dreary and embittered Tomb-Cultists of the Ninth House find it so awe-inspiring.

#I really liked this chapter and I needed to write about it #hundpost #it captured that same awe and wonder that I get whenever I look at castles in fromsoftware's games.#I absolutely love this and sincerely hope that this level of atmosphere and description stays throughout the series.#gideon the ninth #the locked tomb #canaan house #the ninth house #castles crumbling #entropy #this is fucking awesome

Fingers danced between the strings that made up their very soul, bypassing the fear and rage in favor for something far less harmonious. There was hardly a competition when it came to her will against theirs, bullying her way forward to weigh the worth of them both. If she had proved weaker, the audacity she had would have backfired against her.

But how often was the will of a mortal stronger than that of a witch?

"Discord."

With a delicate pluck of a single string she reverberated throughout them absolute chaos. It was no longer them versus Mortem, it was their soul versus their body. The sound of her voice haunted them from somewhere deep within, her soul slipping away from their own. One step back as her fingers curled inwards, palm striking their chest directly the next moment to stun the body from pursuing her.

And then nothing.

The witch halted herself, watching as her arms fell down to her side. Curious as she felt their blood rushing, adrenaline coursing throughout their body. Redness, sweating, a pained look within their eyes. They should be feeling every joint on fire as their stuttered to breathe. Every heart beat one of agony as their soul and body rejected one another. Falling prey to her power, to her cruelty.

Mortem watched without the faintest bit of remorse as they suffered. In their unknowing, unable to comprehend what was transpiring - but she knew, she knew well. She had watched this very thing happen before to another, not by her hand but something else. Something so unexpectedly miserable. Consider this her own flavor added to her arsenal now. A deserved punishment to a once ally turned enemy. Did they think she would let them go? That they'd be the exception? She had been waiting for the moment they'd no longer be an asset, for this fragile alliance to fall through just enough to give her reason to spill blood.

Flesh ripped itself apart, both from the clawing at their chest to their very soul shredding through their body - until finally it broke loose. How ghastly.

Mortem eyed her hand, fingers flexing experimentally a few times. This was not an attack she liked to use but it was one that was deserved for a specific few individuals. Her friend suffered unimaginable agony for months like this, they could manage for a few terrible minutes to know all the suffering they contributed putting the knight through.

Black eyes softened a moment. Iris wouldn't approve. But she was dead. She didn't need to approve... she just needed to rest in peace. The witch would handle the rest as promised, as she always did.

#drabbles #mmm thinking about mort's soul and energy manipulation stuff and her friendship with the protag of her story #pulling the string of discord in someone's soul just turns them against themselves internally. it isn't like entropy where they unravel #the soul/will fights against their vessel/body and if they cannot overcome their souls tears its way out of their body #absolute disharmony upon both.#headcanons #i guess technically because i'm feeling lazy rn
