Y'all are amaaaaaaaazing I caaaaaaan't the talent is too much đ„°đ„°đ„°
Aight, this is gonna be another long one. First up, thank you so much for 3 followers! I'm feeling so loved right now â€ïž Alright, here goes another massive yap... If you're not down for it, scroll away now...
Halloween: It's fun! I love everyone's silly costumes, even though I kinda would have liked to have seen Rich's weed costume from the book... Also Jake's prince/Prince mess up is pretty funny. Also Brooke makes an adorable poodle (not in a furry way I swear) and this further cements that I love Brooke and Jerberry. Also the SQUIP dancing, 10/10. I'm not super keen on the extended ending in the Broadway version
Do You Wanna Hang?: Ew. I don't even wanna think about it. If you ship More Than Hang don't talk to me.
It kinda annoys me that in the Broadway version they don't let Michael be angry in the bathroom scene, like Jeremy hasn't talked to him for weeks, it's perfectly reasonable to be kinda mad! But tbh Michael getting 'softened' is kinda a problem throughout the whole Broadway production. Still love him though.
Michael In The Bathroom: It's awesome, you know it's awesome, just... ughhhhhh. There's not much to say that hasn't already been said. George Salazar please marry me (only joking). Not really any strong preference between Two River and Broadway, the slayness is too much in both to try to criticise either. Oh also the I wanna dance with somebody bit is amazing :)
The Smartphone Hour (Rich Set A Fire): This song has no need to exist, yet alone be 6 minutes long, but I'm so glad it does. It's just so fun. The dance is so fun, and I have to do it every time, and you know by now I live for goofy costumes and this scene certainly delivers. The boys dressed as girls is 10/10, and they all slay in their drag :) I love how two of the guys come down from the ceiling on massive sparkly iPhones, truly iconic. The Broadway version is slightly better for me because Tiffany Mann is an absolutely powerhouse, but I love Katie Ladner too. Overall top tier scene đ
I know the order of Pants Song and Pitiful Children is different in Two River and Broadway but at the time of writing I am listening to the Broadway album so I'm putting Pants Song first
The Pants Song: This song and scene is completely whack but I love it! Yes, you go king, wear those pants! I love how he's like, aight, time to become Superdad! It's so fun and an iconic moment. Also 'Do you love him?' '[very stoned voice] Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?' amazing. Also I love how they have the MITB instrumental in the 'I already tried to help him, and he called me a loser!' bit. Also I just love this whole scene. 10/10. Also in the Tiny Desk concert Tiffany has some awesome vocals in the middle bit, although tbh that whole video is awesome. I should have mentioned in the Act 1 post that Lauren Marcus does an awesome cover of A Guy That I'd Kinda Be Into and also Jerberry woo :)
The Pitiful Children: Okay, this is the first song I really have strong opinions about Two River vs Broadway. Firstly, I way prefer the lyrics in the Two River version, cos on Broadway it sounds like squip Christine and squip everyone else to make Christine happy, like that doesn't make any sense to me. Also the costumes for the squipped people in Two River are awesome and intimidating while on Broadway they're just weird. Also in Two River they reprise the dance from The Squip Song which is really cool. However, one thing Broadway has going for it is Tiffany's awesome vocals, like slay queen. Add Tiffany Mann to my list of theatre crushes lol. I might make an actual post of that soon lol. :) Anyway back to the point, Pitiful Children is awesome but better in Two River.
The Play: I don't super love either version that much, but both have their moments. Firstly, MICHAEL MAKES AN ENTRAAAAAAANCE!!! Yaaaaaaaaas! My boy Michael, you're not in the bathroom no more! (Credit to some YouTuber I stole that line off, can't remember who, sorry) Oh yeah, going off topic again but I finished the BMC soundtrack and now I'm listening to Little Shop Of Horrors and I remembered George Salazar was in Little Shop at some point and he slaaaaayed. Anyway, it's pretty fun how they reprise some of the earlier songs, even if the reprise of Two Player Game when Jeremy and Michael are fighting kinda kills me. Oh also 'I'm living the upgraaaaaade!' is awesome! One thing that I like better in the Two River is the delay before 'Drink this.' cos it gives it some tension, y'know.
The hospital bit is amazing and hilarious, and while I don't really ship Expensive Headphones the 'is he single' bit is amazing. Also I too identify as Anti-social Headphones Kid. Also yay pants! Also, 'Oh I was fully prepared to watch you suffer,' damn dude.
Voices In My Head: Awesome! I like the Broadway a bit better but I'm not totally sure why. Also 'Of the voices in my head, the loudest one is mine!' is a mood for questionable mental health squad. It doesn't totally make sense that everyone is suddenly friends and totally chill with the chaos that has been happening, but it makes for a nice ending I guess. It's cute that at the end everyone is having fun and happy.
So yeah, that's it, so in conclusion I really love BMC and basically all the cast and characters and most of the songs wooooooo:D
reblog to tell your mutual youâre proud of them and itâll all work out
Finally went to see Starlight Express last night and Iâm obsessed.

Jenny and Christine outfit swap?
AGH thank you for this req this is so cutieful
I dunno how to share two posts in the same part but this is the other part
funniest disney history facts i can think of atm
literally EVERYBODY thought the lion king was gonna flop and pocahontas would be their greatest movie ever made. people begged to ditch lion king and work on pocahontas.
the reason robin hood ends so abruptly is that there was an actual ending planned and storyboarded but the crew spent too long arguing about everyoneâs fursonas to finish animating it
madam mim was way less comedic in the original book but because her character was too similar to maleficent (who was in their latest film at the time), the sword and the stone crew decided to differentiate her by making her fucking hilarious
when making a goofy movie, jeffrey katzenberg (studio chairman at the time) told bill farmer to give goofy âa normal voice.â farmer, who had been voicing goofy for eight years at that point, including in the goof troop show that a goofy movie was a sequel to, was very confused. after making an attempt they decided to scrap that note completely.
as of march 2023, farmer is still voicing goofy, and tony anselmo has been voicing donald since 1986. the 2017 reboot of ducktales, which was slated as âwanting to do for donald what goofy movie did for goofy,â featured both actors as those characters; they had also been doing the voices for the original ducktales and goof troop/goofy movie. all the times goofy and donald interact in the 2017 ducktales however, donald was voiced by guest star don cheadle as a joke
current voice of mickey mouse bret iwan has stated that he has attempted to play kingdom hearts and did not do well
disneylandâs current world of color halloween overlay features a plot that is basically âthe disney villains simultaneously adopt a goth kidâ and i love it
people will make jokes about âwell math says that the beast wouldâve been 11 when he was cursedâ well that was actually the original intent, but a flashback scene of baby beast was scrapped because he looked âtoo much like eddie munsterâ
when disney sent a representative to pixar to check on toy story production, she was like âthis is all great! what style of music are you thinkingâ and they were like âfor whatâ âfor the songsâ âwe uh. we werenât gonna have. any songsâ and she went dead silent and then went âi have to make a callâ and left the room
saludos amigos and the three caballeros were made as ww2 propaganda. the government commissioned disney to make movies to make latin america like them so that they wouldnt side with the nazis and provide them an in to invade, and latin america really liked donald duck so
saludos amigos was apparently the first time many usamericans realized that latin american people were like. people. film historian alfred charles richard jr said that the film âdid more to cement a community of interest between peoples of the americas in a few months than the state department had in fifty yearsâ
while latin america generally liked both films, chilean cartoonist rené rios boettiger fucking hated the chilean segment of saludos amigos, seeing the main character of pedro the plane as a weakass bitch, so in response he created condorito, the most popular comic character in all of latin america
disney wanted to adapt ts eliotâs old possumâs book of practical cats. his widow adamantly refused, and then sold the rights to andrew lloyd webber bc he wanted to make it sexy and she said âtom wouldâve liked thatâ
in case you havenât seen the defunctland, walt disney wanted epcot to be a futuristic utopia where he was basically the dictator. then he died so they just made it another theme park
speaking of defunctland the first defunctland video was on disneyworldâs alien attraction and please watch it. please itâs so funny
after the huge failure of the black cauldron disney was going to shut down its animation department. the department tried to convince them to keep them alive by showing them the one scene they had finished for the next movieâ the mouse burlesque from the great mouse detective. it worked
the only attraction the black cauldron ever got was in tokyo disneyland where they put a tour under cinderellaâs castle where everyone had to escape the disney villains trying to kill them, only to end at the horned king and the cauldron, who would try to sacrifice them to satan. this tour was popular but was closed in the early 2000s as the tunnels didnât fit earthquake regulations and i want it in disneyworld so bad
walt disney once referred to his unionizing workers, led by goofyâs creator art babbitt, as âcommie sons of bitches,â and i want a mickey build-a-bear that calls me a commie son-of-a-bitch whenever i squeeze its paw
