Remember when the other toys from Toy Story were actually included in the plot and learned to work as a team with each movie?
I remember...
Crazy how the only relevant plot point to come out of Vaggie being revealed as a former Exorcist angel is Alastor being able to make a deal with Charlie when she’s in a vulnerable position and it could’ve easily been rewritten so that she wanted to be left alone after the Heaven court hearing went haywire and ended with Adam threatening to go after her and the hotel next so the only revenant thing to come of that plot twist and it wouldn’t be hard to write around it.
They only bring up Vaggie being an exorcist when it's convenient or when they need drama between her and Charlie.
And doing it this way doesn't make Alastor look smart in being able to turn the tides in his favor, it was just right place and right time. I would expect Alastor to be able to manipulate people on his own and NOT through the help of some outside source.
It’s so embarrassing to see these ADULT characters act more like immature teenagers in high school rather than the fully grown adults they’re supposed to be.
Like the whole smear campaign in Season 2 was LITERAL high school bullshit you see in Degrassi!
I stopped watching Alex Meyers for a while now because the amount of jokes he’d make about stalking women has gotten to a point where it just felt weird, I wouldn’t have minded if he did it once or twice but the sheer amount started feeling like they were no longer just jokes so the recent Obsession drama and learning that he has been divorced twice doesn’t surprise me one bit.
Oh and I was JUST thinking of coming on here to talk about that.
In preparation for this, I actually went ahead and watched the movie for myself. And it was pretty good. The acting was good, the suspense and scary moments were good. And Bear is an Incel POS that deserved every bad thing that happened to him in the movie. Nikki has my full sympathy as she was a victim to Bear's selfishness and now her life is ruined because of it.
With that being said, I highly recommend seeing this movie for yourself as it is that good of a movie. And to see just how utter bullshit Alex's review on it is.
Now as of writing this both his review and apology video got taken down, but luckily there IS a reupload so I can be able to talk it.
But before we get into this. I'm laying this out real quick that just because Alex's actions are wrong, that doesn't mean you should go and harass him for it. There have been reports of people sending him death threats and such and that is not okay to do. What you can do is just don't engage with him or his content, and again, don't go harass the guy.
"Warning, this video is an attempt at a good faith, nuanced look at the fictional movie Obsession and the characters there in. Which will probably upset some of you... for some reason."
Uh huh, yeah sure. Upset is one way of putting it given the things you say in this video.
What make characters like Jax work while Stolas doesn't work to you?
Well you see it's very simple.
The reason why I personally believe Jax works is that it's easy to see the show DOESN'T coddle and woobify Jax, the narrative doesn't absolve them of their mistakes and makes it clear that the way she acts is destructive and unhealthy not only to her, but to those around her as well. And unlike Stolas, Jax DOES receive consequences when he acts up. Such as getting tied up in the Haunted House episode, becoming a vegan, getting punished in the fast food episode, being left alone by the others. And when he does act out of line, the other characters call him out on it.
And her backstory is more of a way to humanize Jax rather than to make us feel bad for him or say he was always a good person. It gives us insight of how and why they turned out how we see them now, it doesn't justify or excuse her. It doesn't have the characters forgiving Jax.
Jax's story is a cautionary tale, and how he ends up in the end is symbolic of how not allowing yourself to heal and open up can destroy you.
...
But the way Stolas is handled, yeah he's way worse.
Helluva Boss shields Stolas from taking any form of accountability or realization that he's a horrible person. He doesn't really change at all throughout Season 1 and 2 and is treated as the one whose had it the hardest out of the cast. (He really didn't up until Sinsmas but even that is debatable with how he actually kind of benefits from it.)
And when we get to his backstory, it was clearly written to make us feel bad for him and to lay blame on other characters for how he turned out as an adult. It was all a contrived way to explain away how Stolas and Blitz met and hook up to where it feels more like a cringy Wattpad fanfic than anything.
And as the show goes on, it becomes abundantly clear that Stolas is a Writer's Pet in how the writers never let him be in the wrong, have the other characters apologize to HIM, His misery always being the fault of someone else and not from his own hand, and how he's just magically given everything he wanted without needing to actually sacrifice anything or work for it. And we all know Octavia is going to forgive him so once again Stolas doesn't have to really own up to anything.
In conclusion, I say Jax is better written compared to Stolas since he actually faces consequences for how she acts throughout the show and giving us a legitimate backstory that doesn't excuse him. While Stolas doesn't face any consequences and his backstory was obviously included for pity points and to have people think Stolitz was always meant to be.
Okay I know I said I wasn’t gonna talk about Sai anymore, but… this is just pathetic.
This is almost as worse as her dogging on Arteice for 8 hours and that one Helluva Boss video about how the female characters are written and treated. Does she really just see any video criticizing these shows as just hate with no substance?
Don’t take this post as a sign for a full google doc on covering this stream, but Imma just say this.
Charlie is essentially the most wasted and useless main character I’ve ever seen for any show, there are SERIOUS problems with how the writers treat her and how her actions makes her come across as performative, disingenuous, and self serving because she wants her mom to come back with the milk.
She COULD have been a compelling and endearing MC if the writers cared enough to have her be more involved instead of being sidelined in her OWN SHOW! She could’ve been the shining example for her people if the writers didn’t have her be just as bad. The way they wrote her makes her look like an immature woman baby who’s so out of touch with her surroundings that I’m surprised she even still has people in her life.
So Spindlehorse had enacted a new policy that prevents its employees from selling their own Helluverse merch. Though I’m not sure if this also includes fan merch from non-employees as well.
But regardless, like… are they TRYING to tank their studio at this point? This is especially shitty considering how these employees are also underpaid so with this new policy in place, that’s just leaves one less option for them to even make ends meat.
Viv made alistor black retroactively I think just to shut up people saying its racist over him using voodoo. When she could have just reminded people he's a serial killer cannibal who sold his soul to a evil demon for purely self serving reasons. He's evil. He's in hell. He's from the south during the jim crow era. He's not gonna give a shit about the moral or ethical concerns over using vodou. He sees a potential source of power he can exploit and that's all he cares about. But doing so would make it harder for people to justify liking him or whatever. Kinda like how angel dust in the pilot was clearly a selfish a hole and a terrible person instead of a pure victim he is now.
You see, THAT would help reinforce to people how vile this character is supposed to be and someone who CLEARLY deserves to be in Hell. And him getting knocked down a peg would feel more earned and satisfying.
Vivzie refusing to go all out on making these characters absolutely horrible people learning to be better is what's holding the premise of the show back, they're more soft-bad. We're TOLD they're horrible people but we never get any that isn't cringy, forced, corny, or eventually woobified because the writers got attached to certain characters.
If you're going to write a show placed in Hell, make the citizens and the more antagonistic characters the evil and horrible people they are instead of just soft-edgy.
I never got how Alastor was black/black coded, he never did as a black woman myself. Never watched any of Vivzie’s garbage but her “black” characters always felt like she just called them black for easy brownie points and not cause she actually cares and bothers to make a good black character.
Alastor always read to me as a white man, him being black felt forced to me. Nothing about him feels black/black coded.
A while back during one of Vivzie's streams she DID draw a human alastor.
Definitely not a good look considering what she's done to this character in Season 2, and like you said, feeling like she only made him black for brownie points. Not because him being black would add on to his character and provide more nuance and depth to his story, but because people got onto her for having him use voodoo magic even though it's a closed practice.
Now him being black CAN work, it's just the way Vivzie and the writers wrote and handled it is what ruins it in the show.
(Big thanks to @sippedtiredness1058 for providing the screenshot on where to find this info.)
Are we deadass?
No seriously, ARE. We deadass?
Then why even make him ace if you're not really gonna respect the orientation? (Not to say she has before considering the MANY poses she and Spindlehorse had Alastor in during Season 2...)
I know it's gonna be Radioapple... I just know it is...
"We need more complex characters! We need more characters that're grey areas!"
Y'all couldn't even handle them.
I’m not a show runner, nor am I a writer for TV shows, but I would think you’d want to come prepared regarding your show’s overall plot. Like even if you think you won’t make it past one season, you still have some more material on standby just in case you DO get greenlit for more seasons.
Viv really should’ve had a plan going in so that it doesn’t seem like she’s constantly pulling stuff out of her ass when it comes to her shows.
This is why I believe she had nothing planned even though she had spent five years trying to get it off the ground.
You would think she would've had the story figured out by then, and you would think even if she only got one season, she would try to make it the best season ever and not just put all her eggs in the basket.
Shows like TADC, Gravity Falls, and Avatar are able to stand as great shows because the story feels planned out. There was foreshadowing and moments that made sense, and when it got to the ending it felt earned.
And whatever ending Hazbin Hotel has, it most likely won't feel earned or satisfying.
With Vaggie being the hotel’s protector and Lucifer mending things with Charlie in “More Than Anything” Alastor’s existence has become so obsolete that season two has to bend over backwards by making everyone dumb so Vox can be a threat to justify Alastor being important in the finale of the season because he’s no longer the reason Husk and Niffty want to stay and work at the hotel as evidenced by them wanting to stay behind and protect it in season 1, episode 7 despite Vaggie giving them an out before she came back with the angelic steel weapons, he now feels like those memes you see about people trying to shoehorn their OCs in a series they don’t fit in.
This perfectly explains how I felt after seeing Episode 4 of Season 2, at this point Alastor's purpose and role in the story is now null because of Lucifer coming into the picture. Vaggie is so-so since he was the one protecting the hotel more than she ever did.
At this point, considering they didn't even bother to try and rescue him from Vox if they're supposed to be a found family, he should've been like "Fuck all y'all" and become a full villain.
He could be a villain to call out the cast on their hypocrisy and double standards on things, have them realize they're not as close as they act and how often they fail each other. Just something to give him that bite back that's been missing since the Pilot days.
Pans in Helluva, a rapist, annoying character that should stay dead, and Blitz.
As someone who used to identify as Pan before realizing I was actually Demi, it is annoying to see.
Vivzie for some reason sees being Pan as the same as being hypersexual, which is NOT even close to what being Pan is actually like. Now I am not saying that Pan people can't experience hypersexuality, but the way it's portrayed in these shows just comes off as in poor taste in how often it happens.
The following characters that are Pan are: Blitz, Valentino, Verosika, Ozzie, and of course Chaz. And what do these characters have in common? They're sex fiends or someone whose occupation revolves around having a lot of sex.
Now to be fair, not ALL the Pan characters are like this (Husk, Lucifer and Bee aren't shown to be that overly sexual.) But it still doesn't erase how they're outnumbered by the characters who openly express how much they wanna bone people or are associated with the act.
And no, I'm not shaming anyone who happens to be Pan and are overtly sexual. I'm just saying in context of the Pan representation and how it portrays people who happen to be Pan, I think it's in poor taste to show Pan people this way and they deserve better than this.
Finished designing a possible cast for Calling All Villains. Their names are as follows after Mr. Puzzles.
Nina Ms. Shade Professor Cranium Bone Drone Wester
Backstories coming soon.
(This is NOT the official cast, this is fanmade and was made for fun.)
... This synopsis has made me afraid for what direction they might take for Puzzles' character.
Because judging from what happened in WOTFI 2025, one would assume he succeeded in changing for the better at the end. But this relapse would make Mr. Puzzles' ENTIRE arc in SMG4 feel redundant and like it barely mattered at all.
Now I can see this relapse working if he's gonna be made into an Anti Hero of sorts. Someone who does bad things to be considered a villain to most people, but is doing them for the right reasons. That way you can have him and whoever joins him do villainous shenanigans without it feeling like you're resetting his character back to square one.
Maybe this feeling will change once a full trailer releases to get an understanding of what to expect, I just hope I'm wrong about this.
