Percy’s warning to fellow half-bloods in the audience, across different mediums.
The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan (2005) The Lighting Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical (2017) Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series Teaser (2023)
#I have been thinking about making this for SO long#but this semester sucked#anyway I love it when adaptations play to their strengths and make changes to fit the medium#and these little differences tingle my brain a little bit#I didn’t want to check if the movies had something similar because I am Tired and the show and movie version would be pretty similar#anyway#the musical line always gets me#‘better get headed to the exits now’ is such a good adaptation of the ‘close this book idea’#and I know I could’ve just done one of the excerpts from the book but I like both#and I didn’t want to have the paragraph in between to make it just like. a block of text.#percy jackson#pjo#pjo disney+#pjo Disney#walker scobell#pjo show#percy jackon and the olympians#web weaving#riordanverse

"Each day you feel me devour your soul."
#obikin#anakin skywalker#obi wan kenobi#oh.art#sw art#star wars#me‚ feeling peckish but not wanting to get up to find something to eat: -faint sigh- Anakin is always so hungry. for his Master.#for his attention. for his closeness. his everything... and even when Obi-Wan yields bit by bit Anakin never feels quite sated...#... me‚ reaching for the pen: Alright‚ let's do this :).#and if the quote feels suspiciously similar to a certain line from Jekyll and Hyde musical (Confrontation) you'd be right.#I'm not being subtle yes. the title of this blog is a blatant jekyll and hyde reference XD. my other obsessions seeping in. oh well -shrugs

hey spotify this is not a genre of music?? this is not even a standard topic for music to cover. and if it was, it would not be represented by fucking outlaw country much less line dancing sdfghgf
#yea line dancing always gets me in the mood to authentically do my taxes. yeah ofc.#also waylon jennings did not completely fail to keep track of his money for decades and get scammed out of hundreds of thousands#just for spotify to decide outlaw country is tax season music lmao#id in alt#spotify#skravler

if y’all aren’t listening to re: dracula because “oh its just the same as daily dracula just aloud” you are missing out on some incredibly chilling moments
#re: dracula#the audio design in this show is incredible#from the music to the background noises#to the occasional decision to have two people say a line together#those always get me

my ultimate wish for this next era is they finally let Ryan go like they did Andy. I'm so sick of not getting the content we deserve. All the gatekeeping of tour diaries and now the crumbs of concert footage in that "documentary" yesterday. he was working for months on that? that's why we didn't get tour diaries? all that footage just goes in his vault now? Please.
Hello! I'm sorry to hear you felt disappointed by yesterday's special. However, I feel compelled to comment on a few objective points in your ask.
- "Live & Backstage in Amsterdam" was directed by James Tonkin, the same director (and production team, Hangman) they worked with on "The Feeling of Falling Upwards" (and the unreleased "Live in Brixton" special). Ryan was credited as director of the documentary footage and as a contributing editor (1 of 3) but the live footage and overall final program was not his work.
- Regardless of the particular creatives involved here (or in any given project for that matter), the fact remains that any directors, producers, photographers, etc are all hired hands operating with full input and specific direction from the band. The band chose to make this a hybrid concert film/documentary. The band chose to condense the setlist the way they did. The band chose this format over the traditional tour diaries. What happens to the unused footage will be determined by the band. Ryan is a friend but he is first and foremost an employee and the band owns that footage. (Likewise, the MYT diaries are not sitting on Andy Deluca's hard drive because he's "gatekeeping" or too lazy to edit it. If the band wanted them released, they'd be released.) All this to say, of course you don't have to agree with the decisions but it's important to clarify who your complaint is with.
- This concept of the band or their collaborators "gatekeeping" and fans not getting what we "deserve" is, to be blunt, entitled and immature. Being a fan does not make an artist indebted to you. They make music, if you feel so inclined, you listen. That's it. That's the extent of the contract. Anything beyond that is optional for both parties. Any content an artist chooses to release is not out of obligation or generosity, it's part business strategy, part artistic vision. Artists do not owe you anything. This band does not owe you anything.
#apologies for the long answer but clearly i had a lot to say (still do tbh)#i didn't link it bc it hit a lot of the same points but i answered an ask with similar sentiments last year about the CM promo era aesthetic#bottom line is at the end of the day these dudes are not our friends shit posting they are professional artists#artists trying to fulfill not just a creative vision but also business obligations#the people they work with are tools in the toolbox hired to help accomplish those goals#they don't get raw footage and do whatever they want with it - the band will always get final say#the hate their collaborators get is always so bizarre to me-whether it be their signature style or the manner in which they deliver content#the band hired these people for a reason 🤷🏻♀️#also just bc I have the time: Andy was not 'let go'#thru their work with 5sos andy & sarah have become quite prolific mv directors both individually and as a team#as well as continuing to be in demand live music photographers - andy literally shot depeche mode last week#ryan has also had a number of high profile ad campaigns he's shot this year#what I'm saying is they don't need 5sos lol#the band likes their work and is lucky to have access to collaborators that make them feel understood#i just... can't reconcile this 'we deserve' bit#this was the third concert special in as many years... we only had to pay for one... bc it was a global livestream#it's ok to be disappointed if it wasn't what you expected and i don't mean to invalidate that#but this concept of 'deserving' is a different thing especially in the context of this fandom where entitlement is an ongoing issue#so that's where this long ass answer is coming from lol#anyways that's my rant for the year - just in under the wire!#ask#anon

Do you have any opinions on what kind of music mav and ice like? I’m just curious as someone who has motorcycle riding 80s navy dad whose favorite two artists were Madonna and Bruce Springsteen if you think the answer would surprise us? Or if they’d be as predictable as always
Yeah nothing crazy. kinda predictable i guess. classic rock, country rock, classic blues, nostalgic 60s folk, contemporary stuff when it comes on the radio and isn’t unlistenable by their middle-aged-white-man standards.
+ of course ice’s somewhat gay Fleetwood Mac entanglement
#Look i was born in 2003 idk anything about 90s music tbh. 80s yes but not 90s#it’s one of those things I don’t feel qualified to discuss#most of my opinions on questions like this are inspired by what my white dad b. ca. 1970 enjoyed in high school#so that’s where you get ‘beast of burden’ by The Rolling Stones in my fic. that’s a ‘my dad likes this song’ song.#so what else did my white dad like that i feel is in line with ice and mav#?#uhhh. okay. Donna summer. counting crows. the foo fighters. Joni Mitchell. Peter Paul and Mary. bill withers. Burt Bacharach. Whitney.#Coldplay! they listen to the radio so i think they’re into some 21st ce artists as well. like to a Normal degree.#they don’t follow celebs but like the music. they like old t swift but like to a normal white dad degree.#my white dad is really into dua lipa for some reason. ice & mav don’t give me that vibe#pete maverick mitchell#tom iceman kazansky#icemav#asks#it’s one of those things that’s like ‘you should really have ur own hcs about this bc everyone’s are going to be too specific’#like ice & mav’s sex lives & what they prefer in bed. I certainly have my hcs but they’re so specific it’s not worth#discussing because they won’t be universal so who cares. they’ll just live inside my head#the act of sharing hcs is very vulnerable & not always worth it tbh#better to shove them into a narrative somewhere#ty for the ask anon 🥺❤️❤️

my toxic trait is the way i physically grind my teeth every time i see a post comparing the wicked book and “movie” instead of “musical” for something that is not exclusive to the movie & also the movie is still a musical
#it’s the way ppl act as if the movie didn’t come from the stage show… like you can say musical and have it encompass both#this literally does not matter at all and yet. pet peeve#personal#also this is going to sound so mean and i have always been against gatekeeping but nothing has made me want to#gatekeep like wicked like this is My musical that i’ve loved since i was seven dancing to defying gravity in the kitchen with my#mother and i know most of you are only here for ariana grande and will continue to look with contempt upon theatre kids and musical theatre#as a whole outside of this movie. even though this is of course a completely unreasonable line of thinking#like obviously a wicked movie is going to open the doors for tons of people to genuinely get into musical theatre. but then there are sm#people like ‘why are they all singing this is so stupid’ or other criticisms that are just things inherent to the genre like get outttt of h#here go Away#oh and all the horrible takes coming from ppl who have only seen half the story and refuse to engage with the other half via bootlegs#or literally just the cast album and then call musical fans classist bc ‘not everyone can afford to see shows on broadway🙄’ as if anyone#was saying that and they don’t know that 😐🔪#like don’t get me wrong i don’t blame ppl who first experienced the first half visually and therefore don’t want to first experience the#second half only thru listening but also don’t jump to conclusions and attack ppl who do know the full story then <3

friends are currently debating whether 'lost in the citadel' or 'montero (call me by your name)' is the better solphisto song and here are the main points for each side of the argument:
"lost in the citadel works for both perspectives and their tragic yuri romance" (lines 'i need time to get up and get off the floor / i need time to realise that i can't be yours' given as main example) - jo
vs
"montero cos those two definitely want to f-" - james (perhaps better known as captain bhole)
#on a more serious note jo's point did make me a little insane#again: the line 'i need time to get up and get off the floor / i need time to realise that i can't be yours'#this is so solomon-trying-to-recover-from-mephisto's-perceived-abandonment coded#but it is also so mephisto-unsure-of-how-to-go-forward-after-disappearing-on-solomon-for-millenia coded#obey me solomon#jtta mephisto#solphisto#there were arguments to be made for some of the other songs too but these were the main contenders#personally i also nominated life after salem#it feels like something solomon would listen to that abandonment aftermath once he's hit the bitter anger stage of grief#(at least he would have if music recordings had been invented and also lil nas x had been born back then)#i just feel in my gut that he went full teenage-girl-after-first-break-up for a period afterwards#(the other nominee was 'thats what i want' for the time they had together before mephisto left but that one was less talked about)#you know i didn't realise it until i went back and re-did some stuff but solphisto ended up with such Divorced vibes#believe it or not i didn't actually intend for them to be romantically involved when i first wrote their backstory#(you can see that in the first asks proposing the pairing i was kinda hesitant lol)#but looking back. the tragic yuri was always meant to be#to the anon who first called them yuri btw: you've changed my life
