OKAY SO !!!! crush is this sapphic romcom that like i would never watch if it was straight but its one of those movies where EVERYONE is gay but two characters <3 anyways quick notes of the plot:
its set at a highschool where theres this girl, Paige who really REALLY likes this other girl, Gabby, who's on the track team.
Paige is an artist !!! she wants to do this summer programme at Calarts but cannot get her art Right for the like prompt they've used for her admission if that makes sense. like the art is not arting basically
anyways there's also this anonymous artist called Kingpun (the art has puns in it hence the name) around school who spray paints these cool murals but because its school property its an Issue. everyone thinks its paige but it isn't her
Paige is called to the principal and she's meant to be suspended as they're gonna blame her for the art on school property but she is forced instead to join an extracurricular activity + to work out who Kingpun actually is. obviously the loser picks track because of Gabby <333
anyways she ends up joining the team but she needs coaching, and instead of being coached by Gabby like she wanted, the team's coach forces her to be coached by AJ, Gabby's sister
Paige then goes to a party later in the week hosted by one of her friends because of another Kingpun art that hinted at them being there. she bumps into AJ trying to get away from another girl she's not interested in and they try and work out together who KP is but kinda fails. Gabby is there too and paige takes Many shots w her so she gets Drunk
the next morning for training practice w AJ they have a moment between the session Paige shows AJ some of her art and they talk about Calart n stuff and we find out Paige has never had a first kiss or anything like that and AJ is like "damn thats crazy" (not rlly but you get what i mean)
we see them like over a few weeks grow closer and closer and its like aww gay people <3
anyways but then they have this extremely gay scene where after practice AJ lets paige stand on her skateboard while they hold hands and she rolls her on it for a little while <3333 i love gay people
paige then spots KP's notebook (we know bc like. KP is written All Over It) and she messages them online and says she'll give it back to them that night at school
When they go that night its: Paige, the two straights that are dating that she's friends with, AJ and gabby and eventually when they're alone Paige and GABBY kiss and its very VERY awkward
after The kiss we see a car drive off very loudly and like Everyone knows its this one guy called Tim so we're like "YAYYYY we know who Kingpun is now time to tell the principal" but Paige also wants to confront him first
Then there's like this trip for the track team where they go off somewhere and they have to stay in this hotel for a championship thing idk . i cant remember why exactly that well but it ends with AJ and Paige sharing a room and bed
theres a party that night before the track thingy, we find out tim very much is Not KP and AJ and Paige have to play 7 minutes in heaven but instead its a bathroom and long story short they KITH <333
its then very awkward afterwards tho and like the scene right after paige asks if it'll be awkward later and aj is like "nah" it cuts to them being like ten metres away from each other in the bed its ridiculous true cinema tho <3
the two have another very heartwarming scene and we find out like how AJ came out as bi and shit and how badly her family took it at first in comparison to how well they took her sister coming out
Paige doesnt really sleep that night and she slips out to go to the vending machine she'd seen earlier and she's then met with a drunk Gabby trying to get some crisps out of the vending machine and failing terribly
Gabby attempts to kiss paige but paige moves away, saying she actually likes someone else now, and gabby kinda takes it badly but she's still kind of okay with it and goes back to her room
the next day Paige is PANICKING because she realises that aj thinks it was both of their first kisses but it Wasnt bc of Gabby and she wants to tell AJ but hasn't had a moment to
she and the track team do the race and they do well YAYYYy
but as they're celebrating gabby then wants to apologise, in front of the rest of the friends, about her drunk ass trying to kiss paige- but also mentions how it wouldn't have been their first time doing so
we see aj is hurt and paige wants to go and explain herself but then instead aj drops the bombshell that she is Kingpun and just . then leaves.
gabby and aj have a moment when we see just how much aj is overshadowed by gabby without her knowing and so on
aj and paige dont speak for what is probably like three days and to paige it feels like literally Forever and they have this conversation for like five mins and aj reveals she doesnt want to be paige's second choice in the whole scenario and doesnt really give paige a chance to actually explain
paige goes to the principal and is like "yeah im actually kingpun lol isnt that crazy" but it turns out aj had already handed HERSELF in for the whole situation
paige then comes up w a genius idea where she paints this huge ass mural in one night (i know damn well she did NOT sleep) where its like loads of different moments she had between aj that showed her falling in love w her and that ALSO qualifies for the calarts programme thingy
gabby brings aj BACK when this election for class president is happening and like one of the straight two wins and while everyone is like happy for the girl who won she then brings paige up and she talks to aj and shows her the mural and they KITH <3333
so yeah basically im gonna be converting this whole thing into a smau bc im not normal <3
i did skim a few parts of this bc sorry but adhd brain CANNOT read this much JASHJAHSJHS but i did get the general gist of it!!! it sounds so cute omg
im v much looking forwards to reading the smau even if i havent watched any mean girls iteration ever

Okay but hulu's CRUSH is really good so I'm gonna talk about it
Synopsis: Paige is our mc, she wants to go to art school. Unfortunately for her someone's been tagging her school with colorful puntastic murals under the alias KingPun, and the administration thinks it's her.
When they try to suspend her she strikes up a deal to join the schools track team and find out the true identity of KingPun. Where she ends up training with her lifelong crush Gabby.
But as per usual things don't go to plan. Instead of Gabby she ends up being coached by Gabby's twin sister AJ. Now Paige has to get good at track, solve a mystery, deal with her crush, and get into art school. What could go wrong?

If we end up with another "protagonist should have ended up with the other girl" like in happiest season im gonna lose it. Thankfully I don't think anyone will find something to call toxic this time. The movie was pretty cute to be honest
Lmaoooo, I was literally like, if I wake up and everyone's turned on this movie!
The funny part is, I can totally see which things people would hold against AJ but I mean, I didn't agree with it last time and it sure would be egregious this time. I am glad she confessed and apologized because for a while there I was like, I get why you're mad but you are kind of letting her be suspended and also lying to her to the point of accusing other people??
Tbh, I kind of wish we'd gotten a few more scenes with them. We got plenty of time, but I wish we'd gotten even more to show them bonding over, like, art a little, for example. It wouldn't have given anything away, we all knew from the second Paige said KingPun wasn't her that it would have to be AJ to be narratively relevant. They did talk about it some and even then I was like, hmm, more proof AJ's KP but it was still just about Paige's side of things. Would have loved, for example, to see AJ and Paige discussing how the parts of KP's art that made it so appealing to Paige were the openness/vulnerability she was afraid to show herself.
But yeah, it feels pretty inoffensive to me overall but that's what I thought last time so let's see.
