I disliked the idea of a World Tour from the very beginning (maybe cause I hate cringing) but I also understand that in Asia, celebrities often do international fan meetings (they do singing, dancing or any other special things for fans) so I would not judge them too harshly altho the stripper number is actually...hard to watch to say the least lmao I would say that the band number (Cummulus? lol) has actually good potential, they know how to play instruments and if Jeff sings then it would be alright. Sadly MA barely got any stage time in their own country, so I don't expect anything different this time either. It's not that I hate the other actors excepting that Builder man but we barely saw them in the show to get invested in what they do or their characters. I'm here for MA and maybe a lil for JeffBarcode. Perth, Bas and Job are okay cause they stay in their business and are kinda cute but not enough for me to stan lol.
I'm not judging the fans for this debacle at all. I'm judging the company for how this whole thing came together. My issue has never been with the people who may want this. My issue has always been with this company thinking they can pull this off when they're clearly ill equipped and too inexperienced to do so. But see, anon, you may have inadvertently raised enough point for me - if this is something that's quite common in Asia, then why do they believe there's a market for something like this elsewhere? In the continent of Asia, this may be something that could be quite successful. In other parts of the world, would that still be the case? Probably not. But that's where an accountant and finance department would be necessary to determine if this type of investment is lucrative and profitable. Sure, the fans may have wanted this but it was still the company's responsibility to determine whether it was feasible to pull off.
I like Jeff and I feel protective of Barcode somewhat, but I'm not that invested in the rest of them. Luckily, I've been given a crash course in some of the cast names so I know the last three people you mentioned here. However, you could put a gun to my head and ask me to tell you the real names of the characters who play Time, Jom, or Tem and I couldn't tell you. Not even if my life was on the line. Yet, some people truly believe it's normal to stan 16 people like this. I don't even care about and/or are interested in 16 people in my real life, anon, and I'm sure I'm not alone in that respect. So if there's not 16 people I know in real life that I check on every day, then why do people believe I (or anyone) would ever choose to become emotionally invested in the real lives of 16 people I may or may not even remember from this show? I'm sure they're lovely people, (obviously not all of them) but my time is way too precious for that. Nobody has the time for something like that, unless they're really young and/or naïve and believe it's possible to do so.
Yeah, I said it. People who push this OT 16 bullshit are naïve as fuck. You're just as clueless as Pond.

After playing the portuguese translation of YTTD, I cannot look at Reko or Alice without seeing them as brazilian
Just the swearwords and slangs Brazil has fits them so much, the way they act and speak just scream "Brazilian!" to me
In my head both of them are part Brazilian, and no one will change my mind

day 71 of asking why reddit has suddenly become convinced that the 'finn and mat's rhuidean trip are a waste of time and easily cut, and that season 3 will obviously feature him splitting off from the friends he just reunited with in order to spend the entire season dicking around with thom and getting into shenanigans, as that is much more important to his overall character arc than his 2-book waste arc
like there have been SO MANY posts like this lately and all of them are filled with comments of universal agreement! am i having a stroke? what the hell is going on???? i'll admit mat doesn't have a huge amount of specific stuff to do in the waste aside from rhuidean, but rhuidean is crucial to his character and s2 had Mat-Finn Connection Foreshadowing out the wazoo, plus the waste plotline is MUCH more fertile ground for creating additional Specific Mat Stuff and enhancing his character development & relationships with other main characters than his TDR plotline of dicking around with thom is.

note that i will only ever call mithrun "stupid" jokingly. by "stupid", i only mean "frustrating behavior that i am immensely familar with". seeing him do something that makes me groan aloud, closing my eyes, sighing "stupid (affectionate, mournful)". like when he fucking... his dumbass "i don't want to [use the bathroom] right now, so it's fine." oughh. i know you! i know you! that's not how that works!!! and he's smart!!! he's so smart... but god, god... he's kind of an absent professor. he's kind of a cloudcuckoolander. i love him dearly. he gets called a dummy, a little idiot, and i flick his forehead, a little bonk of hard-heads, like "try again, idiot. that's not how bodies work." and "ooh, 'that's not going to work'. yes it is. shut up, stoopid. stubborn little man, my god." rolling my eyes forever.

tragic how people claim to love kevin yet want him to act like a jealous manchild
kevin should be supportive of jey making amends now that he's broken free of the bloodline - mr kevin "the usos are the heart of the table" owens should not be acting like a temperamental child after he's been shown to care about the twins multiple times in the recent past and if he does start acting like a jerk for no good reason... then that's just bad writing on wwe's part ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
