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.

The Pope's Exorcist (15): Crowe has a lot of fun in this horror caper.
#onemannsmovies review of "The Pope's Exorcist" (2023). #popes_exorcist. Crowe enlivens an otherwise fairly vanilla horror story. 3/5.
A One Mann’s Movies review of “The Pope’s Exorcist” (2023).
You have to hand it to Russell Crowe. He still carries a formidable screen presence. After his (very impressive I thought) psycho in “Unhinged” and his (very funny I thought) comic turn in the otherwise awful “Thor: Love and Thunder“, here in “The Pope’s Exorcist” he switches to being an Italian priest, and does it very well. As for the…

Fashion: Mary Ann has a dark feminine vibe and always dresses like Meghan Fox
Mary Ann was intrigued by Gabrielle’s French allure and soon they began a flirty relationship until that slowly turned into small, cute dates, prank dates and making Filch’s life impossible and being fashionable and little troublemakers.
Mary Ann soon began her Quidditch career and Gabrielle started her own, and both, despite the obstacles, their love won and could stay together. Gabrielle was Mary Ann’s biggest fan, and Mary Ann was Gabrielle’s too. They adopted two children and lived a happy, fulfilling life.
Friends. The Girl Gang: Rosa Yaxley ( @potionboy3 )
Mary Ann saw in Rosa the older sister she would’ve liked to have and always relied on her with secrets and loved to gossip with her
Pandora Lovelace ( @gcldensnitch )
Mary Ann’s soulmate, she adores her and the two are thick as thieves and are always pranking the teachers and giving other houses a hard time winning the Quidditch cup, carrying on Gryffindor being the ones to win the cup after Isabelle Dubois graduated (she was a ravenclaw)
Nymeria Lee ( @gcldensnitch )
Mary Ann first didn’t know what to make of Nymeria, but did like her air of mystery and and appreciates her honesty and the two of them got along nicely enough
Tara Cruz ( @nelabelievesindragons )
Tara and Mary Ann also got along greatly, being both lesbians and loving quidditch, though technically they were rivals, but she never allowed that to get in their friendship’s way. They always held friendly competitions and helped Mary Ann with Potions
Barbara Katz ( @gaygryffindorgal )
Mary Ann is fascinated by Barb. She always asks her about her mother’s peculiar shop and they always talk about Divination, even if Mary Ann doesn’t understand what’s going on, but likes it nevertheless.
Gwendolyn Montague ( @magicallymalted )
Mary Ann kind of envies Gwen. She’s artistic and is talented at something and is breathtaking, but does come to peace with that and both of them get along nicely and become good friends. Might’ve kissed for fun or not.
Jupiter Durand ( @cursed-herbalist )
Mary Ann admires Jupiter and her artistic side and low-key envies her, and definitely asks her to teach her French so she can impress Gabrielle and she becomes a muse for her photographs and helps her create a small poem for Gabrielle as well.
Rivals: Cassandra Vole
The two of them couldn’t stand one another and became rivals from the start: she thought her a spoiled little brat who was 100% entitled and didn’t know shit and went to the point of Mary Ann and Cassandra fighting physically. For obvious reasons, Mary Ann won and just made it worse.

Mary Ann has ADHD and struggles to study and even read
To pay her Quidditch camps, she becomes a model of Andre Egwu and is soon a hit for her rare beauty and mysterious charm
She is an apprentice of Katriona Cassiopeia @kc-and-co and is also her biggest fan
Having four brothers, she knows how to fight and has fought many people who pissed her off

She also learned some wandless magic tricks from Pandora
She loves the afterparties of Quidditch and has been known for her drunk shenanigans
She knows how to cook a pizza from the scratch
She also learnt from Pandora mac n cheese and bolognese spaghetti
She also bakes German recipes
Cooking is probably her best hobby besides Quidditch
