did you know gerard way went to art school?

I made [livejournal.com profile] fox1013 watch LotMS finally! She was ... mostly entertained by how much I love them, I think. But it's okay, I love her anyway.

Thoughts on this viewing:

i. OH GOD I DON'T REMEMBER EVER BEING THIS DEPRESSED BY IT BEFORE. It's something about the clear narrative arc they set up here, and knowing that the happy ending they have here gets so much fucking worse right after this finishes. The whole plot of "triumphing through adversity to Candyland!" falls apart when you know everything Paramour is still to come. :(

(I know they all get the happy ending ten times ridiculously happier when you get to the current day.)

ii. Seriously, Schechter was so goddamn hot. The movie still makes me want all the h/c Brian/Gerard in the world, except now I feel kind of bad about it, since he's not involved with them anymore. :/

iii. Also depressing: Bert. That was a bad break-up.

iv. You guys, I remembered why I used to actually like Frank Iero! Who knew!

v. Needs moar Ray/Frank early days. Much, much moar.

vi. Gerard you are SO PRETTY. HOW ARE YOU SO PRETTY.

vii. Mikeyway is my favorite forever and ever, amen.

viii. I think my favorite era to watch now is actually early!TBP blond!Gerard. It makes me sad there'll probably never be another backstage thing like this.

ix. Fuck you all, Ray Toro is fucking hot.

Did I ever show it to you? I posted it on LJ ages ago, I think. I can link if you want! :D?

I probably should have given them all pupils at some point.

:DDDDD

I HAD SRS BZNS CONVERSATIONS WITH PEOPLE ABOUT THINGS LIKE "I KNOW MIKEYWAY'S NOT THE DRUMMER, BUT THE IMPORTANT THING IS TO GET THE SHIRT IN THERE, RIGHT?" AND "WHAT DO YOU MEAN, MCR DOESN'T HAVE A SAXOPHONIST?"

THE RESPECTIVE EXPRESSIONLESSNESS OF BOTH MIKEYWAY AND ZOOT ON ONE STAGE WOULD CAUSE THE END OF THE WORLD. MAYBE.
