oh my god why does everyone in reanimator fandom have herbert call him daniel do i live in a different reality did i watch a different film. iirc and according to a shitty transcript of the movie that i just found to double check. herbert never ONCE says the word daniel. in fact nobody calls him daniel except faculty (the dean & dr hill)... otherwise it is always DAN!!! herbert says DAN(!!!) about a THOUSAND TIMES in the most MEMORABLE and ANNOYING gay little voice what the fuck. everyone please wake tf up... kill the reductive "cold scientist" archetype that lives in your head and tells you herbert west would sooner cooly full-name him than call him DANNY - which he actually DOES do at least once, in that one extended/deleted scene btwn the two of them and megan (because he's mimicking megan) (while gay). please. im begging you
