Coming out as a Hey, Melissa! defender, she’s just girlie pop and I think catboy Paul and dogboy Ted are great additions to the lore ✌️🐈💖
Immediately bought the new VHSCCs album cause I’m obsessed with the new version. Ngl I kinda wish they’d release a version with A.J. As Scrooge cause I like to make playlists that have the same songs different singers side by side, but beggars can’t be choosers so I’m going to be blasting this playlist until new years.
Lautski Week Day Three: Camp
Looks like I’m gonna be “studying” hard tonight
Made a wheel you can spin to find out Where in Hatchetfield You're Going!
⚠️ Warning: some results may not be in Hatchetfield or this dimension. The creator of this wheel accepts no responsibility for anyone who ends up in unfortunate circumstances, or Clivesdale. Spin at your own risk.
(Also please ignore the fact I somehow forgot the name of Miss Retro's when making this. There's no way to go back and edit it now :( )
I’m sorry, I may just be a bit oblivious but I don’t actually get what you’re trying to imply here 😅 especially because in my mind these are two very different characters.
Mainly because from point one it’s obvious Jason doesn’t want to be doing the things he’s doing which contrasts with max who seems to revel in it and so has a much more stark difference between his terrible behavior and his redemption.
I think it should also be mentioned that (imo) Jason isn’t really a character who gets “redeemed”. (Hear me out!) From my understanding redemption is when you do something truly truly bad, make up for it, and learn to be a better person. Jason barely fulfills the truly bad thing by hanging with max and doing his bidding (but as I said above he doesn’t want to be doing any of it in the first place) but his “redemption” is a bit overshadowed by the fact that he tells Richie that if max ever came back he’d go right back to bullying. Now even though max’s redemption is also overshadowed by a return to his evil doings I think it’s really important to mention that Jason just randomly says he’d return to bullying if max ever came back. Whereas max has a more character reason to make his decent back into evil (mainly getting hurt, and pissing his pants. Which are both embarrassing things and we know he has a problem with his dad humiliating him)
In your tags you mentioned that you didn’t think screen time had to do with this, but I actually think it does. And the reason I think this is because of Kyle. Now idk about anyone else but I often don’t remember much about this character. (I had to look up his name just now.) and to me that’s because he hardly does anything in the show. So it would make sense to me if Jason, who is in the show less than max but more than Kyle, would get less attention from the fandom than max, but more than Kyle. And while I know that people love taking random background characters and making them the fandom favorite. I don’t actually think that Jason really fulfills what a typical fandom wants to see which is mainly toxic sad boys. (Which Jason is not imo. Other than the whole “we’re gonna return to bullying” he’s pretty healthy and happy)
I’m sure there are more in depth reasons but that’s the one that came up to me.
Sorry, not trying to be rude or anything. Just kinda hoping to start a conversation because I’m really curious about this topic! 😊
(edit: I looked back at your tags and saw that this is about race, which is totally fair. I’m not going to claim that isn’t what’s happening here since I haven’t really looked at the fandom from that point of view. Feel free to disregard this entire reblog 😝)
Jason Jepson is literally everything the fandom wants Max to be (kind of dumb, gets redeemed and turns out to be actually really sweet, cares a lot about his friends, makes up with the nerds he bullied, hell he even likes Grace). But yet the fandom still favours Max more. I wonder why that is! Hmmm, I wonder what the difference between these two could be!
This but it’s Ruth, Richie, Steph, and Pete.
The question is, who would each one be
Omg I just realized!!
Ella still got her first wish!
I come bearing grim news. The old king, at last, has died.
Think of it this way: the crowdfunding is all for the show. It’s to buy props, and set pieces, and costumes, and even to reserve the venue, and stuff like that.
The digital ticket is for the actors. This pays the actors for their time and effort, so that they can keep a roof over their head and food on the table and so that they want to come back to do more shows in the future.
They can’t use crowdfunded money to pay the actors because they need as much of it for the show as possible. Not only for cool props and stuff but also for if anything breaks, or if there’s any other last minute things they need to worry about.
If starkid put their stuff straight into YouTube without doing things like digital ticketing they would start losing money fast, and future shows would be harder to create.
I know it’s hard, but have faith that these guys aren’t just putting up paywalls for no good reason :)
Just in case anyone was hoping to watch Star Baby on the 8th without a digital ticket, you can't <33
