#wicked was so good

[struck-stars]

…I think a lot about the wicked movie. Like— ya know the musical movie— came out pretty recently— ya know that one. Ya know with like Ari the grande? Ya know that one— yeah—

I think about it.👀

I won’t lie is it embarrassing for me to admit I like— really liked this movie— a little— but that’s just cause I’m emo and normal.

AND LIKE HEY SPOILERS IF YOURE GOING TO WATCH THIS MOVIE!! dumbass/lh

Also don’t expect my thoughts about this to be in order— I’ll be going insane

But like there’s a whole scene where the animals are— well— losing their voices and having their individuality taken away. Even like a whole harassment part where someone’s writing “animals should be seen and not heard” on the board and it’s pretty depressing

So someone— who has had their voice be taken away multiple times— by multiple people. It was really nice to see ya know Elphaba want to change that and stuff.

And then ya know

Also always weird to hear people who…didn’t get the movie? At all— like I watched the movie with this one person who was like “you really wonder why she’s so wicked”

…she’s not though? She was just standing up— for what she believed in—and that’s not what the wizard and everyone else wanted. It was against the “norm” and “accepted”. So they made her the villain.

And like let’s talk about Glinda

I— kinda hated her in the beginning cause I was like >:( ok ass?? But ya know as I watched on it was— familiar— I remember those times where we were so desperate to be popular, to be liked by everyone— and with that being said— we were barely our own person

Cause we were so focused on being what other people wanted/liked/what was most palatable to the public

So I have some sympathy for her.

AND YA KNOW I HAVE TO— TALK ABOUT THESE SONGS. cause some of them >:|

So I’m gonna listen to the album again

And rate them—

1. No one mourns the wicked [6\10]

- ok look with love im not a fan of Ari’s singing in this one— the grande girlie just wasn’t giving in this [near the end I mean]

Ok thanks for waiting ;)

“Life’s more painless, when you’re brainless”

“Life is fraughtless when you’re thoughtless”

“Those who don’t try never look foolish”

Now with all of these lyrics it kinda leads me to believe this song is kinda like conveying the thought process of the citizens— or at least what’s trying to be enforced

Elphaba’s locked in

[hamletthedane]

The movie Wicked is proof that any source material can be vastly improved by simply making the intense female friendship much gayer + the mutual male love interest both wildly bisexual and lowkey down to just be their third

[plslemmedie]

Just saw wicked. Part two isn’t until next year. I am unable to contain my glee. This movie was amazing you all should watch it. Cheers

[selfdesructivedisaster]

Glinda singing “she died alone” in No One Mourns the Wicked kills me because she 100% blames herself for it

She believes Elphaba “died” alone because she wasn’t there for her. And now Glinda has to live with the knowledge that her best friend died thinking no one cared for her.

[hinamie]

yuuji smiling and sukuna making a face like That did u really think i wouldn't do a panel redraw

[mint-chocolate-flakes]

Yes Galinda made a whole ass sim family with her Galinda and Elphie sims and yes she has mods and uses cheats like any simmer ☺️

(Galinda would totally have like 500 hours on the sims and I thought it would be funny to give them 30 kids but my god this household kept BREAKING my laptop so I’ve deleted that file and most of those kids 💀 I only liked the first three cuz they were unplanned triplets)

Bonus

(I forgot to mention that sim Galinda and Elphie had a small weed farm that I’m very proud of cuz it took forever to get them into good quality but now it’s over cuz of all them kids 😠)

[moghedien]

How Galinda gets ready for bed knowing she's gonna homoerotically argue with Elphaba all night once again

[swanparties]

someone add elphaba to the list of gay people who have been rejected when they ask the love of their life to run away with them

[sapphicides]

i don’t think anyone talks enough about how romantic the dance scene between elphaba and glinda really was. it’s such a pivotal moment for both of them, but especially glinda. in some ways i believe this is the moment she goes from galinda to glinda— this is the moment she begins to drop the mean girl façade and not try to force herself to see past elphaba’s differences, but face them head on and love and accept them.

she leaves behind fiyero, her friends, her judgements, inhibitions, and shame; everything that had been defining her as a character up until that moment. when glinda whispers to fiyero, “she does, she’s just good at pretending not to,” after he says elphaba doesn’t care what others think, that’s because she’s pretending too. when they dance, they become mirror images of one another. glinda copies her movements, lets elphaba guide her, and it’s their shared vulnerability that guides the crowd behind them.

and yet, it’s the first moment neither of them truly care about people’s judgements, their own perceived reputations, or anything but each other. in that moment, the crowd disappears, and all that’s left is elphaba and glinda, closer and more intimate than either of them have ever been with anyone. in my mind, that’s the moment they really fell in love

Happy is what happens, when all your dreams come true

It was a big weekend for theatre kids (me)

[gelphiegifs]

And now, for the finishing touch.

[ellaellaaaaaaaa]

I watched wicked today and there wasn’t nearly enough lesbians. Anyways, I drew them together like nine times but kept deleting them because no one told me it’s hard to draw ship art while listening to punk rock, so instead you get this

I love galinda so much she is so precious to me Kristen Chenoweth the woman you are

[broodpuff]

I just realized Glinda being the narrator means that Elphaba had to have told Glinda about that time she was watching Nessa and those kids started bullying her and she magicked rocks at them and possibly even her birth story if it had been told to Elphaba and I’m spiraling

[artwah]

i fear i am feeling the gelphie and wicked hype just like everyone else…! also i enjoy these outfits… #lines
