Watched the RWRB movie with my partner last night, and man do I have THOUGHTS ABOUT IT (in random order, don't come for me, I have ADHD)
- Where is June???? WHERE IS JUNE??? Where is June Nora bestism???
- Who was that security lady? She got Zahra's scenes!!! Zahra was the one who was going to get them "five minutes" time at the dinner party.
- I love Ellen Clairmont, and I would vote her for President if I was American.
- THEY DIDN'T HAVE CORNETTOS!? WHY
- also "I didn't know you wear glasses". I wanted to see Taylor Zakhar Perez in glasses. Come on!!
- What did they do to my favourite turkey scene ;-; Cornbread new Alex's sins okay!! We needed that!!
- We also needed more awkwardness there. My partner said that Alex was pretty awkward but I didn't see it. Sorry Darling.
- The karaoke scene was soooo baaddd. The Prince of England was there on the stage singing and no one cared. There was literally no one cheering for him??
- New Year's Party was okay, I liked that. At least they did that right. But it would have been better with June.
- Basically throughout the movie, I was constantly missing June. Don't blame me, I love her.
- The Lake house could have been waaaaayyy better with June there.
- While we're talking about missing characters, Where is Raphael Luna?? Okay, it works without Luna, but the whole political campaign got messed up without him.
- The Campaign was "will you vote for a predator and a homophobe, or will you vote for Clairmont who is an ally" and we didn't get to see that in the movie.
- We could also have liked to see WHY Alex's emails were hacked??? And who did that??? And how did they do that???
- Also, while we're on the topic of emails, Alex gave a whole political statement without asking Henry, or talking to him first?!?!? Why?? They have such good communication about that in the book!!
- Where was Princess Katherine?! Okay, she was an absent mom, but then she was supposed to come back and support her child and she didn't! And there's a mention of her in the movie, BUT WHERE IS SHE??!
- And then there is Prince Philip, and I am sorry but he looked so small XD XD I laughed waaaaay to hard at that. He looked like a cute baby, I am sorry. I can't take him seriously.
- There. Were. No. Star. Wars. References. ;-; THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO GET A STARWARS MURAL!! Theres so much Fanart of the Alex and Henry as Han Solo and Princess Leia Mural ;-; I was hoping it would be there.
- THEY MISSED SO MANY DIALOGUES TOO!!!! The "What in the rich white people sex dungeon hell" and "HENRY!! YOU OBTUSE FUCKING ASSHOLE"
- WHERE WAS THE SCREAMING AT THE PALACE TO BE LET IN, AND THE HATE SEX AFTER???
- Also, that "making love" scene was so cringe. There are better fanfics written than that scene. I have read better fanfics for research.
- My partner pointed out that the election map of America. Arizona didn't turn Blue. Neither did Nevada. They said it makes " -10000% sense" for Texas to turn blue and the other states dont.
- THE ELECTION PARTY COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER WITH JUNE!!!
- Also, with Alex's childhood friend not existing, and not being present at the party, who's bikes were those that they rode in the end????
So basically, my movie date was supposed to be us enjoying the movie, it turned out to be me and my partner screaming at the screen and then complaining to my metamour.
