I hate to say this but the least interesting part about Clayface is the fact that he's a shapeshifter, it's actually the hollywood part and it's almost certainly why most people remember him as "that shapeshifting clay guy from Batman" instead of "Clayface the actor"

#chirps #clayface #batman #matt hagen #basil karlo #why I like BTAS Matt Hagen so much is you can so easily see #how he's been crafted into this obsession of a perfect man and hiding his homosexuality and flaws and scars #because he NEEDS to be to be successful in Hollywood #and Clayface is the ultimate insult and confirmation he can't hold onto that perfection as it slips through his clay grasp #BUT we can never fully see that Clayface in execution #many clayface depictions are him as the sort of muscle mimicing figure instead of the hollywood acting guy #not to say those depictions are BAD per se. Just that the shapeshifting should draw from acting and movies #because he's claymation!! he's stopmotion clay basically!!!!#he should be a critique on the industry! on the corruptedness of film studios and the lows they'll sink for a dollar!#fuck he's a walking AI deepfake of legacy actors! Studios would LOVE him #He'd singlehandedly cause actor strikes!#talk about actors having to do multiple jobs just to pay rent!#anything! Damn!
