#max and chastity being the ones who carried hardcore here

[kingpains]

i don’t know where to find other people who were disappointed in Geekish Celibacy Advocates Gotta Go to commiserate with. don’t wanna clog up the main tag with negativity because people just browsing abojt a musical they like don’t need that. but holy shit was this show a letdown for me and i cant find one other comment or review anywhere that acknowledges Any flaws :(

edit: censored the name of the show and didn’t tag @ all w/ the show’s name, but this’ll still pop up in searches for starkid and the effort required to edit tags on tumblr is INSANE, so i’m adding Starkid Negativity to the front of the post for blocking purposes of anypony doesn’t want this in their search!

#starkid negativity #letdown for a lot of reasons but it’s still probably just a 5/10 #it isn’t. horrible. i just do not get in Any Way the praise being lathered on it #especially the music #it wasn’t even that funny :( #i’ve never felt like one or two actors have ever CARRIED a starkid show alone before #max and chastity being the ones who carried hardcore here #they were funny and well written and even got most of the Not Bad songs in the show. good for them #but a lot of what they’re surrounded by is just :( underwhelming #i didn’t expect the Story here to be AMAZING WOWWWW bc that’s rarely what i watch starkid for. twisted knocked it out of the park but #for the most part starkid shows aren’t drawing me in with their Plots #the comedy and fun music and nice acting is the appeal for me and this show only really had 1 of the 3 in spades :( #that’s the acting. the acting was good nobody phoned it they were all clearly acting their asses off and enjoying themselves. that’s great #would’ve been greater if they jokes they were delivering and the songs they were singing were #also good #i’ve been a starkid fan since before the third very potter musical dropped* #i usually love starkid’s productions. they were a very good portion of my childhood and adolescence #trying to keep my criticisms here focused on Being Subjective. not saying any of my thoughts here are objective facts abt the show #using a lot of I Feel and To Me statements here. if this does show up in the N//P//M//D tags i’m not saying anybody is dumb or wrong #for liking it. if they did like it #but For Me this show really was a letdown compared to the rest of the starkid catalogue #starkid is allowed to change and evolve. of course it is and it deserves to. but id hope that a Starkid Spirit remains as a througline for #their entire catalogue #yknow. the quintessential essence of Star Kid. and it didn’t feel very present here :( #i have removed the title of the show from the post and it isn’t in the tags. but i’m gonna add a tag for blacklisting just in case
