I've been listening to What is This Feeling? quite a lot today 

 

We love a lesbian anthem 

As someone not overly familiar with the Broadway show outside of Defying Gravity, the shock/outrage over Ariana and Kristin saying Glinda is a bit gay was so weird to me cause the delivery and inclusion of "well, my face is flushing!" in WITF? is very "oh!... she's gay!".

Amazing  this would've been an easy #1 hadn't Kendrick released. Hopefully it keeps increasing.

My favorite part of the stage show is the transition from the reprise, right into the opening chords of ALAYM

Apparently one song is called "Girl in a Bubble" which is sang by Ariana, another one is sang by Cynthia.

Wow wow wow! Where do I even start? I'll preface by saying I've always loved the musical since the first moment I got to watch it on Broadway. It was a gift in itself that I even got the opportunity to experience it due to growing up with financial struggles so I'll probably always have a bit of a bias towards the show I have an obnoxiously long review I wanted to post but you guys do not want to read that I'll sum it up by saying the movie is phenomenal! Incredibly faithful to the musical whilst giving some moments a breath of new life, the cast did a phenomenal job with some award worthy performances and apart from some of the odd lighting/visual choices, the movie is a cinematic feast for the eyes. The film does such a fantastic job of handling the sociopolitical commentary and it's sort of scary how relevant it continues to reflect our current climate. Bravo (I only cried twice whilst watching so I'll class that as an achievement for myself as well )

My theatre in london clapped too, I was surprised but pleased. First time I've heard applause after a film.

[Donquizote]

Honestly im excited for this movie! The last movie that I watched at the cinema was The Eras Tour screening.

It's really infuriating seeing people's commentary on Ariana and Cynthia. If people find them cringe in their interviews just because they get emotional about their experience on set together, whatever...I find everyone's reactions definitely mean spirited but social media looks for people to make fun of and it's nothing new. However, people INSISTING that Ariana and Cynthia are anorexic based only on how they look and then getting even more mad at them for "not admitting how bad they look and trying to make having an ED seem okay" is sick. I'm so so tired of it. Oh but it's okay because the Internet has deemed them "problematic" and so no holds barred, the most vicious bullying is suddenly okay!

I finally saw it in IMAX yesterday at Universal City Walk and it was the best thing ever, a lot of people were sobbing by the end of the movie and kept there sitting in shock  the whole sold out theater clapped at the end so it made the whole experience even better, this is the way this movie is supposed to be seen
