#literally every other version of that scene was gayer than the one I saw

[vaultlink]

Just remembered that Girls Band Cry came to Crunchyroll. I don't have the time to watch right now but I just had to check what translation it is.

It doesn't have the cool ass motion graphic subtitles for the lyrics or motion tracked title cards for certain scenes so it's definitely not the version I, uh, "acquired", but I need to check one thing just to be sure.

IT'S THE ULTRA FUCKING GAY VERSION LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[mwagneto]

1, 30 & 36

1: Talk about the first time you watched your favorite movie.

oh god you're braver than any us marine ok so instead of what everyone expects I'll do a detour and start with the honourable mention that is rdj sherlock, i was super depressed (and I mean like. incredibly so) after sherlock s4 because it just sucked so bad, like i was deadass in ruins and i was trying to find ANYTHING to take my mind off it and by the end of February I watched and read pretty much all Sherlock media there is except for rdj because for some reason I thought it was bad?? but then I noticed the first movie was downloaded on my laptop so I went ok fuck it and watched it on the 26th of February and HOLY SHIT I fell in love with RDJude's dynamic literally immediately their chemistry was so fucking good and the plot and the script and the setting and the music and- point is I fucking loved it so I watched the second movie on the same day and Mother of FUCK it was somehow even better and gayer and sweet Jesus I've been obsessed with them since

NOW onto the real deal, light of my life and my reason for living....Rocketman

Jesus Christ I don't think I've ever been this hyped for a movie in my life

I saw the first trailer on November 11th but I wasn't into it at all mainly because I saw it in theaters and they played the censored version and made it look like some het movie about an imaginary person

But then I saw it trending when the second trailer came out and I scrolled through the trending tag and watched the trailer and boy I was HOOKED

And holy fuck the wait was Agonising especially since the fandom on here consisted of like. Me and 3 or 4 other people and then some ppl who didn't post but reblogged stuff - point is the fandom just. Didn't Exist

By the time carpool came out there were a bit more but still basically nothing, hell in my desperation I even looked at stan tw*tter a few times but I regretted it each time and thankfully I don't remember anything specific

But anywayS so the movie is supposed to come out on the 31st of May but for some reason they release it on the 18th in the UK and then turns out it won't come out until the 5th of June here???

I was so fucking mad my friend and I literally almost went to Wien to watch it

Worst of all, the big cinema chain that's in my city didn't even put the tickets out

And when they did they only put them out for Thursday and only the dubbed version

Which, ew, but I was like I don't care I'll take what I can get

But THEN I went into the city one Saturday and I was just riding the tram listening to the soundtrack when in passing I saw a theater that had a big ass Rocketman sign on the front

It was literally like a 0.1 second glimpse because the tram was going fast but I immediately went rabid and found it online and turns out not only were they showing Rocketman on the 5th of June, they also have the original English version

So I booked two tickets immediately and waited because I still wasn't sure the usual cinema wouldn't put their tickets out

So I stayed up every night until midnight to see if there were tickets but No

Finally they put them out on Tuesday midnight so a day before it's supposed to be released but only for Thursday so I was like ok fuck you I'm going to the other one

Oh yeah by this point I've been logged off Tumblr for weeks because i didn't want spoilers so I didn't have Any Rocketman content at all, I didn't even dare to look at YouTube videos or anything because I was scared the recommended section would spoil me

So yeah I was absolutely content deprived

Fucking FINALLY the 5th of June rolls around and we get to the theater and wait for it to start and jesus fukingn

I'm gonna be honest I literally don't even remember much because I was so high on "oh my fucking god I'm finally watching it" but holy SHIT IT WAS JUST. SO GOOD.

I do remember a few things

I know I screamed out loud when Richard first appeared during crocodile rock (even tho I knew he was gonna be there at some point but it was still so sudden I fuckin lost it)

Also I held my friend's hands during tiny dancer like my life depended on it skdnd

And I've told this story a million times but tmttp shocked the soul out of me coz I knew what it meant scene wise and I didn't think they'd play it so fuckign early skmfsk I had like a full body convulsion and drew my hands back and my calf muscle cramped so hard it hurt for a whole week afterwards

anyway I didn't cry

somehow

I thought I'd be sobbing like mad but I didn't and I still haven't

Idk for some reason I just can't cry over this even tho I SHOULD and I want to

my friend did sjsnfjd

we were fucking. spent dude I don't think I stopped smiling until I fell asleep

Anyway after she somewhat finished crying and we exchanged a few words we somehow got up from our seats and left

She had to print a few things so we walked to a photocopier and talked about the movie but it wasn't anything more coherent than just verbal keysmashes

Literally it was so smfjsjjdsjdn i felt high

I was so fucking HAPPY bro it was so fucking good and everything I expected and way more like we were over the fucking moon

I brought food coz I like to eat during movies but I didn't even dare to look away from the screen during this one

While she got her printing sorted I logged back into Tumblr and checked the tags (they were still disappointingly empty😔)

We then went to a park near the tram and ate the food I brought and talked abt the movie till it got dark at which point we headed for the train and talked there some more before she had to get off at her stop

I spent the rest of the ride smiling like an idiot listening to the soundtrack and texting her & other people

I went for a bit of a walk on the mountain I live on to clear my head but I was literally so happy and giddy I couldn't stop smiling hhh I'm losing it just thinking about all the stuff I felt

By that point I was super low and empty coz of school stuff and irl stuff so to feel so many emotions after months of feeling absolutely nothing was a LOT

Anyway I got home by...idk, late, and blasted the soundtrack on full volume for a while before booking her and myself tickets for Thursday so we could watch it again

And we did

And it was just as amazing as the first time

And then on impulse I watched it again on Friday

And then I went to watch it again on Saturday and as soon as it ended I ran to a nearby theater and watched it again immediately

Then again on Wednesday

After watching it on the 5th I lost my appetite both for food and for water, and also my need for sleep, so until I gained it back after watching it next Wednesday I basically didn't eat, drink or sleep for an entire week but it didn't take a toll on me, somehow

The Rocketman power

Anyway we watched it again on Saturday and Sunday (the girl I mentioned came with me both times then and on Saturday so did another girl)

And then I had exams, a class trip and a family vacation so I couldn't watch it for an agonizing two weeks

but then finally watched it again on the 3rd of July with another friend (a 3rd one)

And then on the 6th of July with the original girl

And then on the 7th and the 9th at home alone and them on the 12th with yet another friend (4th one)

Then I went to watch it in theaters alone again on the 18th

And then one more time with the first girl on the 24th

Then on the 3rd of August alone

And then the first girl came over on the 9th of August and we watched the deleted scenes and the extras and then the extended movie

Then I was once again busy so I couldn't watch it until the 25th

And I took my laptop to the hotel I'm staying at for two weeks rn so I watched it here on the 30th

And now here we are

Jesus fucking Christ I'm so sorry for making you read all this

This took me like an hour to type

Anyway! Peace and thanks for asking skdmsmcmsmmd

30: Talk about what turns you off.

I don't have any turnons or turnoffs tbh skdndn I'm. not about that sorta stuff

36: Talk about your guilty pleasures.

sometimes I hateread awful old fanfics on Wattpad because they make me wanna die but like in a good way

[mithrilbookofmystery]

Some highlights from the live version of Romeo and Juliet I saw yesterday bc y'all need to know about this

Ok so, first off, a lot of the actors for the theater were girls and that made the whole thing and the characters played by them 10× better

Most notably Mercutio, Tybalt, and Paris

All of everyone's outfits, they were all so amAZING OH GOSH I LOVED THEM

Half the girls in the theater swooning over Romeo when he entered for the first time (and for good reason)

The fucking nurse

She was so extravagant and over the top and she played the nurse so well

There was the one part where shes all tired and shit and the nurse is just like "this brat thinks I'm old" and drags her response out and makes Juliet give her this very reluctant and aggravated massage, all while staying p much true to the original play script-wise

Every remotely gay girl swooning over Mercutio when the actress entered for the first time (and fOR GOOD REASON)

SHE WORE THIS REALLY PRETRY SHOULDER CAPE IT WAS GOLDEN AND FLOWY AND I LOVED IT

Literally every Mercutio & Benvolio scene, but I think that goes for every live version of the play

"Kiki, doth thou love me?"

This one part where Mercutio just fucking. Puts his head on Benvolio's lap. And then does this,, elaborate roll to get up

Which involved getting his head very close to Ben's crotch for half a second

Benvolio fucking screeched

Some guy in front of me: "that was gay" Me, under my breath: "yeah no shit, dude"

Friar Lawrence was honestly the best fucking friar

"HOLY SHHHH- SAIT FRANCIS!"

Romeo almost climbing these two pillars on the balcony for the balcony scene, the girls in the audience almost swooning, him finally actually climbing the pillar, the girls in front of me SCREETCHED

They used fake blood (of course) and the initial fucking *chaos* (while momentary) when Mercutio pulled their hand away after being stabbed and it was red

THE PART WHEN TYBALT DIED LOOKED TOO REAL TBH ROMEOS SWORD WENT TOWARDS TYBALT'S NECK AND BECAME RED WHILE GOING THROUGH THE PART WHERE IT WOULD HAVE HIT THE ACTRESS AND ROMEO'S SWORD WAS COVERED IN FAKE BLOOD FOR A WHILE

OH DID I MENTION THEY USED REAL SWORDS

BC OF COURSE THEY DID IT WAS SO COOL

Paris's fucking outfit, I need it for my life

This one scene where Paris' actress's braid fell out of her hat and I never felt gayer

AND THEN THE SECOND HALF

They did it all so well, and they did the change in mood just so well it was very tense and beautiful *chefs kiss*

The scene when Paris and Juliet meet for the first time in Friar Lawerence's cell radiated a Big Lesbian Energy TM

WHEN THE GAY GIRLS CHECKED THE HANDOUT AND REALIZED THAT THE ACTRESS FOR MERCUTIO WAS COMING BACK FOR THE OTHER FRIAR

WE WERE FUCKING SHAKING WITH EXCITEMENT

Romeo's outfit for the last scene was,,,, dare I say better than Paris's

THE WHOLE THING WAS SO GOOD I LOVED IT IT WAS AMAZING
