PINK FLOYD: THE WALL (1982)

i just spent a good 15-45 minutes writing about thematic similarities between the song of achilles, merlin, hadestown, and wicked.

i am.

in so much.

emotional pain.

Christian Bale as Jack Kelly in Newsies (1992) dir. Kenny Ortega

(ENCANTO SPOILERS sort of)

so I’ve been thinking about the songs 96000 from In The Heights and the song We Don’t talk About Bruno from Encanto and Vanessa and Isabela’s parts are really similar

they both ruin the mood and piss me off

like 96 000 is a happy exciting song and Vanessa makes it all sad and sort of about herself

We Don’t Talk About Bruno is an ominous sort of song about Bruno and Isabela makes it more hopeful and about herself

PEIP intentionally got Emma infected

When Colonel Schaffer talks to Emma at the end of TGWDLM, she seems to imply that the Apotheosis was an isolated disaster that happened in Hatchetfield, not an ongoing world crisis. This seems to imply that they somehow cured or neutralized all the infected, except for those at the lab.

In Honey Queen, the store clerk refers to Liz Cunningham being from Clivesdale when they say “once a chemist, always a chemist”. This could explain the woman in a lab coat at the end of TGWDLM, because maybe Clivesdale is conducting experiments on Hatchetfield citizens! When Colonel Schaffer says “PEIP would like to see it become something more”, she clearly knows about Emma and Paul’s relationship, so she would know what she was doing when she told Emma that Paul would drive her to Colorado. I think they intentionally exposed her to the Apotheosis in order to study its effects. That lab in Clivesdale could even be the lab Charles was referring to in Yellow Jacket.

I've been in the hamilton fandom for years since it came out and y'all heavily slept on Jasmine until she started dating Anthony. Now you defend her like you loved her all along?

She was constantly left out of fanarts and discussions. People I knew literally forget her existence/only call her Peggy!!!

And suddenly you're her best friend? Fuck off.

“Encanto”: Are Disney & Pixar getting lazy?

I haven’t seen the movie yet, and I may wait until it comes out on DVD.  Judging by the several clips I’ve watched, Disney & Pixar’s character designers are getting repetitive.  For example:

I usually love Lin Manuel Miranda’s work.  But Encanto’s songs don’t impress me.  As Roger Ebert.com critic Monica Castillo  wrote:

Speaking of those musical sequences, I think it’s time Lin-Manuel Miranda takes a break. After knocking it out of the park with “In the Heights,” “Hamilton” and “Moana,” his 2021 offerings have been a little lackluster. For this review, I finally watched the movie “Vivo,” in which he voices the title character as well as handles the song writing duties. Those numbers sounded flimsy and forgettable. In one song, he rhymes “drum” with… “drum.” In “Encanto,” the odds are a little better, more songs fare better than others, but there’s still a sense that these musical numbers are the reheated leftovers from other projects. They sound like his work, but don’t offer anything new or exciting to get stuck in our heads. Isabela and Luisa’s disposable pop songs "What Else Can I Do?" and "Surface Pressure" are cloyingly repetitive. “The Family Madrigal” is a less effective version of the opening song from “In the Heights.”

I agree.  I’d rather he create quality work every 5 to 10 years, rather than crank out work that grows weaker with every project.

Look, if you like the movie, bravo you.  I’m not saying others shouldn’t.  I’m just saying I’ve watched extensive clips of the most important scenes (provided by a friend who works In the Biz), I’ve listened to the songs, and I’m disappointed.  I was hoping for something as good as Coco.

When it comes out on DVD I’ll give it another chance. Until then, this review echoes my opinion so far.

Anyone who wants to argue with me or convert me, don’t waste your time and mine.

BIG BIG BIG BIG IMPORTANT GUYS!!!!

PLEse okeaSE PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS!!

I need help SO badly picking my audition song.

My auditions are on monDAY and I have until 4:00pm that day to decide.

Here are my two options:

(ON OPTION TWO I’M SINGING DAVEY’S LINE!!! His starts with: “tell me how quitting does crutchie any good.”)

Both are done acapella!!!

So here’s the thing about song one

I can’t cleanly hit all of the notes, so I have to speak through a few of them.

I also have to take “you could see it too” and “till that train makes Santa Fe” up an octave.

A great emotional aspect

Very showy. A great audition song.

Not a song by the character I’m technically auditioning for.

I’m not allowed to audition for jack, but I’m inadvertently doing it anyways.

So here’s the thing about song 2

Equally showy.

But at the same time still bland?? Jack’s lines are just kinda better

Only want this Bc of “poor guYS head is spinning.”

Practiced this one more.

Not very characterized

A technical davey song tho

I can also hit all the notes very cleanly

Sometimes my intervals are yucky and I get a buzz in my chest voice if I have phlegm.

Easy way out I think.

It doesn’t encapsulate my skill.

Especially my voice acting.

Please please pleaaaaaase take the time to survey and listen.

My entire theatre career is riding on this show.

Not really, but I won’t ever have the chance to play Jack Kelly again, so I have to try my best to nail my audition.

And I wanna be happy during my senior year show.

God bless you beautiful motherfuckers.

So, you know, lately, I’ve been hearing this sound. Everywhere I go, like a tick, tick, tick… Like a time bomb in some cheesy B-movie or Saturday morning cartoon. The fuse has been lit. The clock counts down the seconds as the flame gets closer, and closer, and closer, until… all at once… BOOM!

tick, tick… BOOM! 2021 • dir. Lin-Manuel Miranda

quotes i like from depressing introspective musicals i love part 1

i don’t know why people run, i don’t know why things fall through...i could say no and goodbye, but why, jaime, why?

see, we’re laughing... i think we’re gonna be okay... see, you’re laughing and i’m smiling... and you’re mine... we’re doing fine.

wait for me... i’ll hurry!... wait for me, hurry!

you're sorry-grateful, regretful-happy.

you don't live for her, you do live with her. you're scared she's starting to drift away- and scared she'll stay.

marry me a little, do it with a will. make a few demands i'm able to fulfill. want me more than others, not exclusively.

you're always wondering what might have been, then she walks in. and still you're sorry, and still you're grateful, and still you wonder, and still you doubt, and she goes out.

make me confused! mock me with praise! let me be used, vary my days... for alone is alone, not alive!

we'll be the one thing in this world that won't hurt.

you know i love you. i love you as much as i can.

let's be scared together. slap my face, or hold me till winter.

do you know? all i want is you. anything you do is all right, yes, it's alright. do you know?
