queer as in gay but also queer as in unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

watched wicked for the first time since i was 8 and now i’m physically stronger and can lift cars and buildings

[nonbinarychaoticstupid]

the funniest thing about wicked is the fact that they literally sing a song that's the equivalent of the 'i didn't know how to process my feelings about someone i liked so i wrote a note saying get out of my school' post and we're supposed to believe they're both totally straight

Theater kid (which is official)

ok idk if people on here are talking abt this idk if I’ve seen it but one of the funniest/most awkward things about the immediate aftermath of the queen’s death was audiences that night going to see musicals on the west end, specifically Wicked. apparently before the show some official came out and called for a minute or two of silence in honor of the queen. makes sense. silence concludes, lights come down, show begins. the overture begins very loudly with dramatic and fast-moving music, moves to a slower section, and at around the minute mark, becomes a very brassy, loud, cantankerous kind of aggressive melody. and then, after a minute of silence and a minute of overture, the audience is greeted with the first words of this musical, the words that have started the musical every night since 2003, now being sung loud and proud in london on September 8th, 2022:

“Good news! She’s dead!”

a guy just argued against socialism by saying “why would you spend years becoming a doctor to earn the same wage as everyone else?” oh idk maybe i’d like to save people’s lives?? maybe you can have genuine interest in something beyond money?? honestly what is wrong with our culture if the only motivation to get out of bed is greed? capitalism has such devastating consequences on our sense of self and our values, and honestly we don’t talk about that enough

[shiiimmer]

all the people in the tags saying they’d like to be a barista or do cleaning or something like that! and who are made fun of for it! are so precious! i hope we can build a world where u can just.. choose. and not end up in poverty for it.

Cats (2019) is worse than Doctor Who (2006) even though the show was made with the budget of a crisp packet

[deactivated12345678765432-deact]

okay everyone buckle the hell up cause I'm gonna nerd out to you about the makeup they used for this episode.

Yeah that's right I SAID MAKE UP

Everything from the top of their head to the end of their neck

purely intricate, beautiful makeup

(by the very talented make up designer Sheelagh Wells who is the only one to have worked both on doctor who in '63 and new who)

Each shaped individually to each actors face and able to pick up each micro expression we still struggle to produce with cgi to this day without it looking wrong or plastic

everything from the small cheek movements to the eyebrows to the nose crinkle, the actresses is able to act as if she usually would.

By not having to restrain her face to act in one peticular spot or with nothing but small motion capture dots on her face, means she can actually bounce off the more realistic reaction to the other actors performance rather than if they just said "right well pretend she's a cat and we'll add it in later".

and sure, okay, I'm not gonna lie to you, the main reason the nun cats were made to be nuns was because it meant that they could cover up as much skin as they possibly could to save time in the makeup chair, because like op said, they truly did have the budget of a crisp packet

but hey, if it works

IT WORKS

Yes, each actresses sat in the makeup chair getting the extensive hair and make up done for HOURS, but ultimately the sheer amount of detail they were able to add to the characters by doing this made it worth their while.

THEY ONLY HAD A BUDGET OF AROUND £800K PER EPISODE at the time, in 2006 FOR EVERYTHING INCLUDING LOCATION ETC

Imagine what these make up designers would be able to do with A HOLLYWOOD MOVIE BUDGET

One of my favorite details in The Prince of Egypt

So I noticed this on one of my last viewings of The Prince of Egypt and I absolutely love it.  I wanted to take some screenshots to show you, because this is really cool.

During the “When You Believe” sequence, you see these two Egyptian guards throw down their spears and walk off, seemingly nowhere.

But if you watch the background during the following Red Sea scenes, you see this:

Those two guards actually went with the Hebrews.

You even see them helping out as they try to cross the ocean floor.

And here they are on the other side.

I seriously never noticed them until recently, and I’ve seen this movie countless times.

Not only did these background characters get shown abandoning their role as soldiers, the very ones who probably directly oppressed these people, but the animators continued to place them in the shots during the Red Sea sequence.  Meaning they were meant to be there.  I just think that’s really really freaking cool.
