The Lost Boys rant/slight headcanon

I could never wrap my head around on the common idea that David isn't an affection person, he literally couldn't stop touching/getting close to Michael and also in the first scene we see him touching a girl but it also with him could be a power thing.

Another common thing I see is how Paul would be the type to grab someone just randomly either flirty or playful, and I don't see that while watching the movie a few times. I couldn't notice a time when he did do such a thing (if there is lemme know I'm curious) I totally see him more as the type to say something flirty/playful rather than touch. Like a form of letting you know he considers you a friend heres where the headcanon comes in:

I see Paul more as when he first meets someone to be very talkative but not touchy, then when he gets comfortable to be very touching and I say this because I do see him touching more than any of the other boys. But only people he knows like him putting his hand on Dwayne in the video store and being open to grabbing Marko when the fight breaks out, acting like a bigger brother to Laddie, and also during the bridge scene you can see him and Marko grabbing each other with their legs.

here what I mean

I think for David hes more open to touching random people and talking to them but for Paul he would need to know the person first before touching them.

In the movie there's this deleted scene where Lucy visits Max' place - and the e try way is a bright blue, there's a jukebox in the most brilliantly bright colours, a ferris wheel miniature that moves on its own. Everything in the rooms we're shown is brightly coloured, and very much a collection of curiosities. But then again - they are modern curiosities.

Now, upstairs, however, he tends to collect things from his past, the times he has lived through. Like a victorian study, like a bedroom with items dating as far back as the early 1600s. Upstairs is a place where visitors won't go, so that's where he'll keep the items of his past.

If you were to truly look at it, his whole house was just a collection of curiosities.

Am I the only one who notices Paul's weird little movement after he takes his hand off of Dwayne’s shoulder and throws up his 👌🏻 sign and it kinda looks like he gives Dwayne a light smack on the ass?

Just me? OK

Okay can we stop acting like Shane and Ryan are hostages? They are grown men and this is their company too. Even if Steven is the driving force, they are supporting this with their full chests. Ryan said it’s the “right thing to do” and Shane had the professor say “ well why not?” Which is every bit as tone deaf as Steves “ everyone and anyone can afford it”

I've been thinking about the reception Watcher Entertainment is getting for paywalling their shit, and how it compares to the Dropout situation back in 2020, and how completely different the receptions between those two things were.

I think it comes down to the fact that Sam was open about paywalling being a last ditch effort to save CollegeHumor, after their parent company was just gonna fire all the staff and keep collecting youtube residuals. And then they (Dropout) acted like it. They kept on less than a dozen staff, most of whom played double roles (as both actors and staff); and they pivoted to relatively inexpensive content. Everyone could tell that they were desperately treading water, and so the paywall didn't feel greedy - it felt like a last-ditch effort to stay afloat.

The gamble worked out for them in a big way, but at the time, the desperation was palpable.

In contrast, the Watcher announcement didn't mention them being hard up for money. It only mentioned wanting more. They're not acting like Watcher is in a tight spot - they're starting an expensive travel show, taking Ghost Files international, and talking about how they want to use the additional money to improve production values on their (already overproduced) shows.

That's why this seems so much sleazier than Dropout did: because Dropout was fighting for its existence, while all Watcher is fighting for is. Sending whole teams of employees abroad, I guess?

there are literally worse things than being in a saw trap like for instance openly expressing that you have wants and needs and are a real person
