2025-10-29 23:43:37 +0000 UTCTo answer one of your smaller questions, The Secret is a book from... I dunno at least 15, maybe 20 years ago. I never read it but I think the whole idea was that if you put something out into the world hard enough, you can manifest it and make it your reality. Basically some sort of pop psychology stuff. It got big in the US for a while, I remember my step mom being super into it. But anyway, great reaction!

2025-10-29 15:01:28 +0000 UTCSpoilers ahead sorta for anyone who doesn't know the full thing I'll fully admit that I've never watched the entire thing and just read a summary and listened to the songs, but I've said that I hate Evan. That's changing, because upon watching this reaction he is just a kid who gets in too deep because of anxiety and desperation. That being said, I still kind of have gripes on how Connor is erased. Sure, they comment on it, but as far as I know (and I'll admit I don't fully know), there's no big resolution to it. And I fully get that after something like this.... You are left wondering forever. But I feel there should be more to it. I think the movie tried to fix some of that, but still, it's so sad. And it's not Evan's fault, it's the writers. What I want to say is... I no longer hate Evan. But I wish there was some more resolution or commentary on the Connor side of this.

2025-10-29 14:37:04 +0000 UTCI know it's the thing most people who hate DEH hate about it but personally this is one of my favourite things about it, the moral failings and complexity and how it still tries to balance keeping Evan as someone we don't necessarily hate and can even understand to some extent. He keeps falling deeper down the rabbit hole and ofc he shouldve stopped long ago and is doing really wrong and messed up things but I think you can still empathize with him, especially as someone who's had anxiety issues myself I can really understand how while it may not actually be that in reality actually admitting and clearing up this misunderstanding can feel like the end of the world, as well as how this sense of belonging and family he gets is so appealing to him. It doesn't help that everyone keeps praising him for it and it seems like he is actually making the Murphy family happy with his lies. It's still very selfish of course but I can understand how he goes down this route. And that doesn't mean I excuse those actions and clearly the musical doesn't either. Both Evans actions and the other students performative grief and "suddenly caring" are not portrayed as good things. I really enjoy the dissonance in subject matter a lot of the songs create with this sense you've mentioned before of "oh this is so heartwarming but also it's all a messed up lie" Sorry for the rant I just have thoughts haha
