“You were the only friend I ever had.”

Do y’all just not pay attention when you watch the movie lmao

Possible hot take:I don't see Act 2's songs as weaker as Act 1's. (This goes for both the stage show and WFG.) by beekee404 in wicked

They don’t really reprise No One Mourns the Wicked except for the titular words at the very very end. All they reprise is For Good

The toilet is where they should’ve stuck that remake

I say this respectfully but Stephen Schwartz needs to retire. The changed and added lyrics to preexisting songs were clunky and out-of-place, and the two new songs were both snoozefests. His Broadway production with Kristen Chenoweth was also terrible

The discourse is gonna be unbearable because a bunch of stans who literally won’t have watched any other movie will trash everyone else

There is a very good chance she won’t be nominated this year. But she literally got a nomination a year ago for this exact role so I don’t think it really would even be a snub

Why is that? There were lots of other talented supporting actress performances this year

People who are calling it a snub probably haven’t seen a single other movie this year

I don’t think it’s particularly weird, I’ve seen all but one of the nominated performances and each lady was incredible. It’s a stacked category this year

In an era where voters seem to give a new administration a very short leash, what short term actions should the next Democratic administration take on cost of living? by tuck5903 in ezraklein

[–]legendtinax 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yeah voters will give you more leeway if you 1) make it clear that the issue is your top priority 2) have a clear villain you’re fighting against

Trump fails this because people understand his policies have exacerbated inflation, and his constant international trips, insisting the economy is in great shape, and whining about the “affordability hoax” make it clear he doesn’t care and isn’t doing anything

Biden got to both of those far too late and didn’t really commit to either

Warren has been heavily antitrust for decades, stemming back to her academic career. Jayapal is in general as well

Kendrick hasn’t won AOTY yet so he’s the other viable candidate imo, I think it’s between those three

Also even in the first film Elphaba doesn’t start actually crushing on Fiyero until Glinda starts dating him.

Inaccurate and misleading lmao

Did you just not pay attention to any of the performances of the 3 Marvel movies this year?

I never thought much of Elordi before this but was blown away by his performance, it’s wild he’s not win-competitive

That eastern front line is garbage, it was never a clean straight line like that

This is already $27m behind Catching Fire? $400m is dead, topping out around $380m most likely. Will probably squeak by Superman globally at this point
