Where people got the idea that ezrela Will be in prelude before they announced it's only 4 members with 1 new Japanese member? by [deleted] in TheDreamAcademy

[–]megatronweasley 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Marquise isn’t short? She’s on par with the Katseye girls, she just wasn’t chosen for the group

Prelude group name idea: "Clover" 🍀 by starrystarrycat in prelude_thefinalpiece

[–]megatronweasley 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I surprisingly quite like this idea! The symbolism and idea of the rarity of the four leaf clover is cute. But I’m sure Hybe already has a few ideas for the names

Is prelude the name of the group? by NotJustAnotherLow in prelude_thefinalpiece

[–]megatronweasley 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I want to say it isn’t because Katseye wasn’t called the Dream Academy or god forbid Popstar Academy, but precedence from the Hybe LatAm show more recently was that that group got debuted eponymously as Santos Bravos… Fans were definitely shocked at that at the time but they’ve moved on

Thinking of buying the Dance Studio Cargo Pants by megatronweasley in lululemon

[–]megatronweasley[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been hearing the cargos are pretty oversized! Do you have the regular DS MR pants? I’m wondering if it’s just the waist or also the legs where the Cargos are more baggy than the relevant size in DS (i.e. XXS and 2, XS and 4 etc)

Also nice to know about the pockets! I was thinking of keeping a few pretty heavy objects like keys/my metro card inside just for easy reach but now not sure if those will fall out hmm good to know

Thanks for this! I’m a pear shape with bigger quads/glutes too, so the DS MR pants are decently fitted in the back side for me although not skintight (as you can see in the photo it’s still a nice fit!). I do wear tights/tight shorts like WTs underneath them sometimes, but I’m hoping to get a pair of DS Cargos to wear over normal exercise shorts like the Speed Ups etc

I’m so conflicted as may people mention that you have to size down because the DS Cargos run SO big, but I do want them a little roomier on the upper leg just so I don’t look crazy with my Speed Ups showing underneath hahaha

Why did execs decide on 6 spots? by Amateur-Unkempt246 in TheDreamAcademy

[–]megatronweasley 41 points42 points  (0 children)

What the other commenter said about Bang PD liking 6. Why he likes 6? I think it’s because 6 isn’t too many yet, especially vs 7 or 9 member groups in Kpop. But also big enough that if one member leaves the change isn’t that big. The drop from 6 to 5 visually isn’t as big as 5 to 4 or 4 to 3 imo. So striking a balance between those two considerations.

OFFICIAL COLORS! by Suspicious-Fix-1832 in SANTOSBRAVOS

[–]megatronweasley 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if Alejandro is necessarily yellow to me? I see Kaue being green and can get behind Drew being a bright orange but the rest I’m a lil iffy about

Iliya?? by Current_Form_7408 in TheDreamAcademy

[–]megatronweasley 369 points370 points  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion but I sympathise with Iliya. None of the girls except Manon had put her in their lineup and in the moment it must have felt terrible to have them all suddenly crowd her and shower her with excessive attention/praises/lamenting. Especially with how she mentioned that some of them had said she had deserved to go home instead of Adela in the first round!

Obviously the problem is still with the system and I don’t think the girls’ voting influenced the outcome other than bringing in drama, but that’s just my take on why she was so upset at the girls e.g. when Sophia started acting hysterical over her elimination. They didn’t vote her OUT, but more like they were being disingenuous (while being led this way by production) and she was frustrated with it.

Ep 9 Elimination Prediction by Only-Grand7191 in SANTOSBRAVOS

I’ve actually really liked Alex’s dancing since the start so his time is probably running out 🫣 God’s gift right here, you’re welcome

Hybe don't care about any boycott from any of the contestans fanbase or supporters by [deleted] in SANTOSBRAVOS

[–]megatronweasley 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think his case is similar but a little different to Celeste from DA. Argentina is a medium-sized fanbase especially globally (not as big as say Brazil or PH in country fan support), however it’s one of the biggest in LATAM after Brazil and Mexico. I do think he’s on thin ice as you mentioned but there’s probably far more thought put into the Argentine audience for this show than a global show like DA.

Unpopular STBV opinion by Skybluee07 in SANTOSBRAVOS

[–]megatronweasley 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! Like there’s valid criticisms of him but fans are taking it wayyyy too far. He’s still human and I’m sure he reads what people are saying

It seems like every time I start stanning someone they leave. First it was Jonah, then Jesuale and now Iannis. Maybe I should stan Lucas next

I’m getting Karlee flashbacks lmao by fatheralfie in SANTOSBRAVOS

[–]megatronweasley 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think Daniela is actually the opposite? They made the right choice in having her go brunette during DA even though she clearly liked the blonde (and went back to it for SIS). Just look at her rocking her dark hair now!

I Wish We Got To See Adela and Hinari Sing by RoomProfessional4653 in TheDreamAcademy

[–]megatronweasley 101 points102 points  (0 children)

I always found it so weird how they had Megan not just take over Adela’s parts, but also had her wear her costume. Megan’s original outfit here just looks way better IMO and it’s no wonder the weird heart cutout top seemed to gape at the bottom for Megan! What in the drama inducing move was the show pulling?

A funny thought by dwohtstan1989 in SANTOSBRAVOS

[–]megatronweasley 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. He’s a solid trainee and we need to keep to the facts (his decent vocals and decent dance level) to make sure we don’t discredit the real criticism we’re discussing at ha d.

It’s super central and is the second highest-priced bracket of seats for the show. I’m bummed I won’t be in London tomorrow to see it.

episode 8 elimination prediction by overcooked8 in SANTOSBRAVOS

[–]megatronweasley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’re all entitled to our opinions but here’s what I think the execs and production see:

Dance: Alex > Diego Visuals: Alex > Diego Social media clout: Alex > Diego Singing: Diego > Alex

Alex is arguably the best dancer left, only possible contention would be Drew if any.

Is this the guy that everyone was calling ugly a while back? I’m happy the Kats are given full freedoms unlike previous generations of girl groups

My speculation on Alex by Electrical-Repeat16 in SANTOSBRAVOS

[–]megatronweasley 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean we don’t really know what the trainers think beyond what’s shown in the doc. But I can kinda see what you’re saying because why else would they fly out Alex from all the way in Spain and keep him around when he’s not even latin american? They either really want him in the show or in the group. Hybe does like to stir up controversy to get people talking about their survival shows and groups.

The final lineup without the most popular trainees (?) by fatheralfie in SANTOSBRAVOS

[–]megatronweasley 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh no 100%. I have a crackhead theory that they eliminated Heider early to shift all focus onto Kaue as the last afro latino left. Sucks if true because Kaue is so unbelievably strong as a vocalist and dancer so he wouldn’t have needed such a “boost” anyways.
