Crack thought: If we ever went along with the Five and Lila subway station situation and Five moping at the end because of Lila, then I would've loved to see him going back to the Delicatessen Diner and telling the other Fives of his recent break up. All of the Fives would be so utterly shocked that they decide to shoot him and take his place.
#the umbrella academy#tua#they so would because of the paradox psychosis#but apparently they don't have it?#fyi i hate that subway situation and i'm fully against that

crack thoughts on TUA4 if we kept the whole 'Five and Lila get lost in the subway' sideplot, bear with me:
it would have been so much funnier if, after a while, Five went looking for Dolores because "you know what, at least, the last time I ended up stuck and lost in time, I had Dolores, might as well get her back" and so he does
and Lila teases him endlessly about it, because of course she would, that's what Five and her do, they bicker and tease each other all the time
except, at one point, it's been what, five or six years, and Five is asleep, and Lila sees Dolores and she gets closer, and starts talking to her as Five does, and then she is about to kiss her when she snaps out of it like "fuck, I really need to get back to my family" and then she wakes up Five and they keep looking for the exit with Five going into one of his manic moods with diagrams and calculations and cie and eventually they find their way back
that would have been so much funnier
#lila falling in love with delores because of the madness HAHAHA god that would've been amazing#now that's in character

i don't think people outside the fandom understand what we are actually upset about. plays/films/tv shows have had similar endings for literally ages. at least two of my favorite musicals (once on this island and hadestown) do, in fact. tragedy can be beautiful, if executed correctly. but that's not it. the ending on its own is not why we're upset. we're upset about what came before the credits rolled and all that was lost and not addressed beforehand. dave. ray. sloane. i could go on. that's why we're asking why this season even exists... because it just created more gaping holes in the existing plot while also throwing in a bunch of new unanswered questions - and ooc nonsense - that will never be resolved. not to mention, the conclusion essentially tells us: if you have trauma, the world is better off with you not existing at all... you're broken and you always will be in any timeline. that is a very dangerous message. i was a lost fan, i was a game of thrones fan, but this is different. because of the way the umbrella academy is constructed, the events that unfolded in season 4 taint what came before it. so, i'm pretty on board with pretending it didn't happen because i personally wish it didn't. i don't know if i'll ever emotionally invest in a tv show again, tbh. television is unique in that your life unfolds as the show does year after year. i think the writers/producers/etc. forgot this... by making these characters cease to exist, you also erased a part of all of us. and that's devastating.
your grief right now is valid. don't let anyone else tell you otherwise.
#YES#anyone who hasn't watched tua s4 won't understand how utterly devastating it was.#it just so worse because. all these things won't ever be answered. we will remember this as the worst season and ending.#how could they do this to us when we all shed our love and passion into this series that existed for 5 YEARS. it's a LONG time.#OP same this taught me to never get emotionally invested in tv shows again.#i cope by reading all the fix its and older fanfics on ao3#steve blackman your days are numbered#i wish i got spoiled for THAT.

ok some things i LIKED about tua 4 since we all have talked exclusively about what we hated (SPOILERS AHEAD):
idc what anyone says the baby shark bit was iconic every time it came on i jammed
klaus had a comic book storyline from hotel oblivion!! let’s go source material!!
diego and luther being himbos
allison and klaus friendship
the entire birthday party scene was hilarious and fun and so THEM ok
the road trip scene that was in the trailer such iconic sibling goofy clownery they’re fucking idiots
klaus. he was in it. any time i get to see my little freak is time well spent.
incredibly unpopular opinion but i liked the ending i think they need an end from the cycle of apocalypses and suffering like they deserve a rest they’ve earned it and it was sweet that they all went together and the “i love you guys………but you’re all such fucking assholes” and then “fuck you” and everyone laughing and crying and THEN AND THEN ALL THE CHARACTERS FROM THE VARIOUS SEASONS BEING AT THE END i was SOBBING
klaus having a podcast of himself giving himself affirmations like that’s so funny
they actually gave somewhat of a shit about each other like diego was so DAD my babies have grown up but not too much they’re still fucking toddlers
lila is so pretty and funny and hot and unhinged she means so much to me
lila and klaus friendship!! lila and allison!! bonding!!
gene and jean were SUCH classic umbrella academy characters. loved them.
viktor gets all the pussy
i cannot stress how much all of the group scenes were so fucking sibling i love them ok
NO LUTHER AND ALLISON INCEST THANK FUCK
THUNDERBOLT THE GHOST DOG <3<3<3
klaus and claire oh my god i love uncle klaus so much and he loves her so much
seeing sober klaus and how hard he tried and then the heartbreak when that went away because he’s KLAUS he’s gerard way’s trauma self insert. as much as i want klaus to be safe and content and free from all this bullshit it was just so consistent and i can appreciate that. and i cried like a little bitch it was truly devastating but it was just sooooo klaus. also getting to see him make it incredibly clear that he didn’t want his powers back—him being the ONLY ONE who didn’t want his powers back—was important to me idk. and he was LOVED like he has a family!! he is cared for!! ahhHHHHHH!! love it
claire was great and getting to see her and allison and their tumultuous relationship and their love for each other after all of these seasons of allison looking for her and just wanting to be with her daughter
klaus got dave’s dog tags <3
more flashbacks to brellie kids!!
getting answers to some series-long mysteries
the underground subway system between timelines was so fucking cool and mindfucky 100/10
klaus’s look being reminiscent of s1 sorry that was my favourite klaus look ok
their sort of evolved powers when they got them back
so many good one liners and comedic scenes
ben being a crypto bro is SO FUNNY
will add stuff as i think of it. this is incredibly out of character for me i am an eternal pessimist but i did enjoy s4 (mostly because, as an eternal pessimist, my expectations are always low) so here we are.
#this#yes the baby shark scene was funny at first but it got really annoying afterwards#the p*ke scene was so disgusting tho#viktor slayed not many people are talking about him because of... you know#but he basically carried the plot and nearly saved ben#also he owns the bar?? not just works there??? the bar vik's... slayed.#my trans heart is so happy#but my gay heart isnt#where are the gay parts???
