Falsettos Incorrect Quotes! (p.1)

[Also, deeply sorry about coming back with another random musical hyperfixation. I'll try to get motivated to finish up the DEH series!] - Whizzer: Can you come out? Marvin: Yeah, just one second. Marvin: Whiz, I'm gay. Whizzer: I know that. Come out to the car. Marvin: Okay. Marvin: Car, I'm gay. - Whizzer: We're playing Scrabble. It's a nightmare. Jason: Scrabble? Scrabble's great. Whizzer: Not when you're playing with Marvin, it's not. He puts down words like "ephemeral" and I put down "dog." - Mendel: Bonjour, Trina. Voules-vous coucher avec moi? Trina, unfazed: No, I do not want to sleep with you. Mendel: Oh, man, is that what that means? I had a really gross tennis instructor. - Whizzer: Don't worry, I have a permit. Charlotte: ..This just says "I can do what I want." - Marvin: Trina, do it for our friendship- you can't put a price on that! Trina: Yes, I can, dear. Fifty dollars. - Jason: I've never once smoked marijuana. I ate a brownie once at a party. It was intense. It was kind of indescribable. I felt like I was floating. Turns out, there was no pot in the brownie... it was just an insanely good brownie. - Marvin: Can you name a single city in Oklahoma? Whizzer: Oklahoma City, bitch! - Marvin: Being gay is a constant struggle between "I wish to sit on a window bench with my lover, our legs entangled as we listen to the birds", and "Hey, let's go throw rocks at fascists" and I think that's very sexy of us. Whizzer: If the window's open and you time it correctly, you can do both. - Mendel: Okay, is anyone in this room actually straight? Marvin: *Raises his hand* Whizzer: *Puts Marvin's hand down* - Cordelia: You know what I've realized? Marvin: Some thoughts are better left unsaid? Cordelia: Nice try, anyways- - Jason: I think mostly I wanna see what happens when this whole place breaks apart. - Marvin: The next time I open up to somebody, it'll be my autopsy. - Trina: Jase... Jason: I can tell by the tone of your voice that I've disappointed you. Alas, I must further disappoint you by affirming that I do not give a fuck. - Whizzer: New year, same me. Cuz' Im perfect. - Mendel, excited: Heyy! Trina: Hey, someone's excited. Marvin, deadpan: Yeah, and it's making me sick. - Mendel: If I punch myself and it hurts, am I strong or weak? Trina: Strong! Whizzer: Weak. Marvin: An idiot. That's what you are. - Cordelia: Are you alright? Charlotte: Short answer, or long answer? Cordelia: Short? Charlotte: No. Cordelia: Long? Charlotte: Noooooo. - Cordelia: Treat spiders the way you want to be treated! Marvin: Killed without hesitation. - Whizzer: I'm hot, I'm tall, I'm gay, and I'm in my theater kid arc. - Charlotte: Seriously, all you do is bitch. Marvin: I happen to bitch the perfect amount for someone in my situation. - Trina: Unfortunately, due to several experiences in my youth, I cannot just 'walk up and join a circle of people talking', but it does sound lovely, thank you. - Trina, answering the phone: Hello? Jason: It's Jason. Trina: What did he do this time? Jason: No, it's me, Jason. It's actually me. Trina: What did you do this time? - Marvin: I saw Whizzer for the first time in years.. Jason: And? Marvin: I told him I was an Olympic gymnast. Jason: What? Why?? Marvin: You know when you get nervous, and you end up lying to impress? Jason: ..No. Marvin: Exactly, we've all done it. - Cordelia: My knee just cracked so loudly that I half-expected it to glow in the dark tonight- - Marvin: You know, when I first met you, I thought you were a real bitch. Whizzer: What changed your mind? Marvin: Oh, I still think your a bitch, I've just grown to like that about you. - Marvin: Would I rather be feared, or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to fear how much they love me.

and then also the fact that they completely deleted the jared part of that fight.

like, seriously?

really?

alana and evan dont even fight, its like their talking but there’s tension.

they do it in a fucking l i b r a r y

like

no

what?

why???

theres no objectively good reason for this song to be cut, if anything its making the viewers hate it more??

or at least mildly dislike?

honestly, when i went into the movie theater and sat down, and got to that segment, i was already thinking 

“Hey, there’s been no depth to any other characters but Alana Evan and Zoe. What happened to literally everyone else? Jared? Cynthia & Larry? HEIDI??? C O N N O R, EVEN?? Well, at least the THREE fights are coming up, now we’ll get to see some actual depth in at least ONE of the characters other than those three.”

and the amount of just-

disappointment i felt when they skipped him

sorry, just ugh my jared actually caring for evan and feeling left behind/having some self-fucking-respect kinning soul

my alana being a strong female who can stand up for herself stanning heart

my evan is not just a victim preaching bRAIN

i cannot handle this, somebody make a petition to remake the movie please. 

from what i’ve seen, the movie soundtrack has already been spoken about, but ill throw my hat in too

the gist here is that some songs have been removed. which like, by itself isnt that crazy or surprising. some songs simply wouldnt translate well on the screen - Finale and Disappear for example, which have been cut

there’s also two new ones - The Anonymous Ones (alana’s new song), and A Little Closer

but cutting to the chase, what the other removed songs have in common is pretty damn unfortunate. 

Anybody Have a Map, To Break in a Glove, and Good for You. 

all three of which notably spotlight ‘side’ characters, especially the parents. To Break in a Glove is arguably one of the only scenes that makes Larry sympathetic. (which is sad bc it already seems like theyre cutting larry’s character into pieces) AHaM is one of the only songs Cynthia stars in. 

And it’s like.. okay sure, I could see AHaM translating awkwardly, fine. Still bummed we don’t get that establishing peek into Heidi’s head, but she’ll have her moments.

it’s Good for You that has me making this post at all. i have had multiple conversations about how bullshit it is that they removed it. the more i think about it, the more that seems like a dire misstep, specifically because theres no way a written scene is going to translate at all. 

to understand why this is bad, let me remind yall what Good for You does. besides being objectively the best song (to which nearly all of my peers agree - and yes that’s not to say it’s my personal top favorite, and that’s why I say objectively. it’s definitely up there tho) in the entire musical, Good for You is unique in that its 1) the only time people finally express to evan how deeply his actions have hurt them and 2) the final word either alana or jared get for the rest of the show.

to be clear like, that’s not a good thing, lmao. it’s one of the biggest criticisms ive always had for the musical, actually. but still, within the framework of the story, its incredibly important.

removing it is dangerous. here’s why: try to imagine this as a songless scene. what i picture is jared and alana arguing with evan / expressing their frustrations. whether this is the both of them at the same time, or in two consecutive scenes, this sucks!

because if its both of them, it looks like evan is being backed into a corner. it looks like hes a victim in that moment. and if its two scenes, thats still slamming down the ‘emotional consequences’ hammer repeatedly the thing is, good for you isnt super literal. as in, its not actually jared alana or heidi taking turns to yell at evan. thats why it works! because theres emotional truth to it - how they feel is real - but its not really happening like that. and thats why translating it would be difficult.

and like i said, its fucking important! so it needs to happen somehow! especially considering jared and alana will both get more screentime in the movie, thus doubly warranting a proper exit / chance to express themselves. 

//takes a breath

thats all to say.. the removal of good for you is not good for the movie. 

the cat girl empire.... it's begun

@weirdo-with-a-potato

see I literally thought that was always what mendel was referring to

like marvin is short too, dude, "giant man" cannot be about height it just CANT

The last time i saw falsettos the guy playing mendel gestured to his penis when he said “im not a giant man” which is funny because imagine someone is proposing to you and hes like btw my wee wee small my wee wee sooooo fucking small do you want to get married

i think its doable

Idk anything about falsettos. Au where they manage and try to save a failing home depot then go into severe credit card debt

Falsettos fandom what do we think of this one here

back on my grind (creating a something rotten! modern au in my head but never doing anything with it)
