finally sat down and actually watched the 25th anniversary and, no surprise, mostly hated it. came out of it reluctantly team raoul, which is...the first time i've ever said that, actually.

gonna have to go watch a jeremy stolle boot or the infamous eiji akutagawa performance as a palate cleanser. big sigh.

#i'm not gonna use the tags because I don't want to be mauled #but he STANDS wrong and he can't growl and I feel like I could murder 25th anniversary phantom with a hammer in like 5 mins #anyway suddenly i understand the circular arguments i've been having on reddit #if this is your only exposure to the character? this IS just a weird guy who lives in a basement #so anyway yeah sure. if you think he's just a weirdo who lives in a basement. fine.#but i do NOT think that because per book canon and implicit in MOST performances #he's got a DECADES long career as a successful stage magician and spy and political assassin #literally though this phantom's post PONR unmasking growl sounds like bowen yang doing the SNL skit with the effete video game noises #why did i write this in the tags #anyway it's fine. it's not for me. it's fiiiiine.
