I'm sorry the tags are so long and so many lmao

cats is a great example of a show that doesn't work as a movie because all of the magic of it is in the live performance (the costumes, the dance numbers, the absurdity of it all) and dear evan hansen is a great example of a show that doesn't work as a movie because the show sucks

#I'm rewriting deh and i kinda switched alana and evan's personalities and made the show not a feel good sewer slide awareness thing #Like really it just doesn't work as a type of feel good thing ya know #The way Evan got dragged into the lie and KEPT IT GOING with Zoe being part of the reason he couldn't tell the truth #All strikes some sort of red flags in me you know #And the movie made it worse like what the hell #This isn't gonna JUST be feel good because you will be found exists #It's all based on a lie that Evan knew Connor and kept it going because it saves lives or whatever #And the movie paints Evan as the good guy like he's the hero and guess what HES NOT #And this was even relevant that he's a terrible person but also a good one in the original and it adds to the plot that Evan is both the #Protagonist and the villain him being a bad person is why deh so meaningful to people #And NO CHOREOGRAPHY??? NOT EVEN IN FOR FOREVER???? WHERE THE IDEAL MV IS WHAT THEY'RE DESCRIBING IN THE SONG????#what is wrong with them oh my god #A deh movie could work but not in THAT way #The book portrayed this better where it shows connor's pov it would've been better if the movie was an adaption of the book #Rewriting deh felt like beating content out of the deh fandom with a stick cuz I needed more material to work with and make everything have #A purpose because at some points I had gotten too self indulgent and I think I made it pretty edgy and I was into milgram while rewriting i #So I may have made Evan too similar to amane BUT IT'S STILL BETTER THEN THE SHOW ITSELF #(And there's so little content of the off Broadway version so trying to keep true to the original without knowing what the off Broadway #Version was like was like making a Connor project of my own)
