If The Snake's Paw has a million fans, then I am one of them. If The Snake's Paw has ten fans, then I am one of them. If The Snake's Paw has only one fan then that is me. If The Snake's Paw has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against The Snake's Paw, then I am against the world.

Something, something, disaster gay president that falls in love with every man he meets.
Bonus: Howie having a drink with some cousins to vent. It’s only somewhat helpful.
Howie: I’m gonna die alone!
Paul: Howie, of course you’re not.
Bailey: No he totally is! Bartender two more rounds of shots!
If you can’t read the pictures it’s under the cut.
First picture:
Vice President Bob Morris is saying something very important.
President Howard Goodman stopped listening as soon as Morris’ blazer came off (he totally wears one but takes it off during long meetings)
Second picture:
General John MacNamara: I need you to listen very carefully mister president
Unfortunately President Howard Goodman is not paying attention anymore
Third picture:
Xander Lee is explaining some sciencey shit with the portal
Poor President Howard Goodman doesn’t understand a single word he’s saying
Fourth picture:
Wilbur Cross, knowing exactly what he’s doing: Hey Howie~
Fifth picture:
President Howard Goodman, the gayest disaster to ever be elected as America’s president: Oh no, he’s hot!

Ok, of course, yes please also tell us about your favorite Crutchie and why!
LETS FUCKING GOOOO OKAY
i have no problem with AKB as a person!! just getting that out of the way because i WILL shit on his portrayal of Crutchie swiftly and without remorse.
AKB is very good at playing the happy-go-lucky, innocent, wide eyed comedic relief character. he plays the same type of character in tuck everlasting as Jesse, and in the Dracula reimagining he's in now. he's a good actor and he plays that typecast well!
the problem is, that isn't Crutchie. i feel like AKB drastically sanitized the character that was written in the script. he made Crutchie into this pure and wholesome caricature of a disabled person, who gets pushed around and defended and is always upbeat about it. The general atmosphere of fan spaces in 2017 didn't help that at all either. I remember a lot of infantilizing Crutchie, all sorts of "smol boi ray of sunshine" shit. he was treated like this defenseless, needy little thing. he wasn't a person.
I really feel like Matthew Duckett (an actual disabled actor! almost like it matters!) read the same script as AKB, and got a person out of it instead of a pity sponge. Matthew's Crutchie is, to put it plainly, a little shit. He antagonizes the Delanceys, fights cops, slingshots his friends when he gets bored. He's playful and funny, but he's also whip-smart, fast on his feet, and will talk shit like it's nobody's business. his doubt about the strike isn't him being scared and worried about fighting, it's him being a realist and a strategist, recognizing flaws in their plan that jack isn't even thinking about. He isn't this defenseless little blob that the other newsies have to constantly worry about, but a competent and capable part of the community. one of jack's right hands and confidants, an intelligent and necessary part of the strike. it makes it so much more devastating when he's taken to the refuge. jack falls apart because he's lost his friend, brother, and equal, not because he let poor little Crutchie get captured by the cops.
and when Matthew's Crutchie gets back from the refuge, he is happy to be back and see his friends, but he is also angry. he's angry and hurt and has a lot of other emotions going on, which you can see when he cuffs Snyder. he doesn't just bounce right back, he is affected tremendously. like a REAL GODDAMN PERSON.
i love how Matthew Duckett gave Crutchie room to be a capable, emotional character instead of a clean-cut sunny blob. you can really see that he isn't just Crutchie, he's Sean (or Charlie or whatever name you prefer), the real person.
AKB made Crutchie a caricature, Matthew Duckett brought him to life.
