Calling all Oncelings! I need your help!

Greetings, Onceler fandom! Tis I, MJ, just a little guy who wants your help on a big project I'm planning!

Here's the rundown: I want to do a deep-dive video on the Lorax, from its origins to its adaptations, to the cultural phenomenon that it has become, including a HUGE dedicated section to the fandom and its history! And I need your help with it! Keep reading if this interests you :D Rough outline of topics that I'm plannning on addressing:

THE CONTENT:

The Original 1971 Book

The 1972 Short

The 2012 Illumination Movie (And what went WRONG, the cut content, analysis)

The 2015 Musical

THE IMPACT:

The Onceler Fandom's Beginnings and Early Years (2012)

Shipping (Oncest, Normaler, the like)

Onceler OCs and aus! (Possibly an OC feature from those in the fandom!)

The Lorax in Meme Culture

The Resurgances of the Fandom (2015, 2021, 2023 Tiktok Boom)

Where's the fandom at now?

It's a huge project and that's why I want you all to help me with it! What do I want your help with? At the moment this is my list!

Research and Fact Checking on the "Content" Section, especially on lesser known topics like the musical or the cut content! (Pspspsps calling the five of you who actually know what the musical is)

RESEARCH AND FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCES OF THE ONCELER FANDOM'S EARLY DAYS!! I joined this place in 2023 so I don't know much about the early days of the fandom, and I want to know SO much more than I do! I want to know the scope, everything from the in-jokes to the aus to the deoncelerization. If you've been in this fandom since 2012 I would LOVE to hear from you!

Last but not least, I want the end of this video to be a love letter to this community, sharing firsthand experiences of what the Onceler as a character and the fandom means to you! I want to conduct interviews with people over discord (which is going to be a lot less fancy than it sounds so dw, it's not going to be an interrogation LMAO)

Specifics are subject to change but one thing will stay, I want to end the video to be made out of raw Love and Appreciation for this fandom, showcasing the side of this little corner of the internet that people who brush it off as mindless cringe don't see. All I've seen from this community is love and support and I want to be the video essayist who shows it for what it is!

At the moment I don't really have much of a plan (I'm not a very good planner lol), but if enough interets garners I know it'll help me streamline my motivation and come up with a game plan!

Feel free to leave me suggestions for where to go from here, maybe give out my discord? Make a Discord Server? Maybe there's something I can do solely on tumblr? I don't know! I don't know at all how Tumblr works! Help Me! Am just a little guy!

Alright that's all from me for now gamers, if this project interests you all in any capacity or you want to help out, please reblog/reply/message/ask/howeveranythingworksonthissite to let me know! Feel free to ask me questions or whatever as well! Peace out for now ✌️

I'm once again trying to remind you that there was a Lorax musical that deserves more love and recognition.

Amazing puppetry, splendid designs, wonderful reviews, but sadly, no digital release. I wish we had one, i truly do.

The Lorax: The Musical Idea

This is my rough outline of a stage musical based on The Lorax, the book, special and movie. It’s heavily inspired by and will include these demo songs on the film soundtrack that were cut from the final product, so please listen to them before reading.

I think the 1972 animated special is a pretty perfect adaptation of the book on its own. Here I aim to preserve its strengths and redeem the elements with potential that the painfully shallow, mediocre film added, fumbled and wasted, because my obsessive, autistic brain couldn’t pose the question “But what if The Lorax (2012) was good?” without attempting to answer it.

Comments and questions about the outline and my creative process are incredibly welcome!

Villain Song Showdown Bracket B Round 1

The Mob Song (Beauty and the Beast) - Villains: Gaston and the townspeople

Biggering (cut from The Lorax) - Villain: The Onceler

Mod comment: Being in a production of Beauty and the Beast made me realize The Mob Song actually slaps

i do not get ppl who are so worried about how their spotify wrapped will look like. why the hell are u playing one song for the whole night on repeat to make sure that ur top songs are not "embarrassing" like what. what has happened to joy and whimsy

[fabuloustrash05]

Ran this poll a while back HERE and decided to run it again this time with more/different options (along w/ some previous winners)

If your not happy single, you won't be happy in a relationship either. Happiness comes from musical soundtracks, not relationships.
