EXACTLY! This is what I call backstory assassination. It’s like he was never humiliated and ROAR never kicked him out. So his whole motivation of being better than Sully was just because. I have not hated a backstory assassination like this since Spinel from Steven Universe Future.
I saw my favorites but at what cost
I’m sorry but they massacred Randall’s character. Write him as a hater, sure! But at least sure he’s in-character. And Johnny’s sudden 180? It’s just the writers were like ‘oh wait you know who’s a fan favorite? Randall! I’m sure less than 15 minutes will suffice.’
Like, NO tension between Randall and Johnny? Just the best of friends? THEM? Randall wasn’t kicked out of the frat after his mess-up at the Scare Games? The beginning REASON for his rivalry with Sulley? And speaking of which, Sulley and Mike were stuck in an office and didn’t even face against Randall, despite them being the reason Randall sought revenge in the first place?
The rest of the season was great, but the characterization and handling of the OGs Mike, Sulley, Randall, and Johnny in the last two episodes? Way too rushed and shoddily written. Where was the build? The foreshadowing?
