Was someone going to tell me that an advertisement for Lestat the Musical is in the background of Enchanted or was I just supposed to find that out myself

Villain Song Showdown Preliminary Round #11
Top two will make it into the bracket
The Lion King only has one more spot though.
Songs below the cut
I Want More - Villain: Claudia
youtube
Descole's theme live version - Villain: Jean Descole (It was the live version that was submitted)
youtube
In Circles/_n C_rcl_s - Villain: Sybil Reisz
Going to include the propaganda for this one because it seems important: "sadly can't get this across with the ost recording, but Sybil is being taken over by the Process, in game, the song gradually switches from In Circles to _n C_rcles, and grows more distorted as Sybil is Processed more and more"
youtube
youtube
Ya Got Trouble - Villain: Harold Hill
youtube
Evil Like Me - Villain: Maleficent
youtube
Be Prepared Reprise - Villain: Scar
youtube
The Madness of King Scar - Villain: Scar (and hyenas)
youtube
Chow Down - Villain: Hyenas
youtube
Isabella's Lullaby - Villain: Isabella

I dunno, but having grown up in the 90s/00s with the ‘94 film.. it is admittedly very frustrating seeing new fans constantly trash talking something that was so foundational for queer people my age.
Like, no, it’s obviously not as gay as iwtv22, but it is still very very extremely very queer coded. And that coding is all we had for a long time. Like Lestat’s first levitating bite with Louis? Lestat and the Fop? Louis’s heavy-breathing farewell to Armand? Louis and Lestat’s reunion? These moments meant so much to me growing up, before I ever even knew there were books. And then later reading those explicitly queer moments as I grew older?? It only further cemented the importance of the coded sexuality and how it allowed me to love this very queer thing without having to unpack its queerness with my family.
I just think there’s a lack of consideration for the era where queerness in media was something that had to be kept secret, and using that against the film as some sort of “gotcha” isn’t the move you think it is.
And, yes, Tom and Brad suck as people. We don’t have to debate that, I agree wholeheartedly. But this constant dumping on older fans for.. cherishing an old thing that meant a lot to them for extremely specific reasons? That really sucks.
(the gatekeepy older fans can rot though)
Like let’s be 100% real here: every adaptation of these books is deeply flawed because the books themselves are deeply flawed. Not just structurally, they have serious problems regarding race, sexuality, women, children… Anne did not create a perfect foundation to work with, and she herself was an extremely flawed and often problematic person. And no matter how much you want to imagine that the tv show is divorced from all that.. it never will be. And that’s not your responsibility or mine to contend with any of it. It is a piece of media. It has no bearing on you as an individual.
I guess what I’m saying is that this series is nearing its 50th (!!!) birthday, and we as fans are very fortunate to have not only this incredible television series, but two iconic films (yes, QotD is iconic but in like.. an ironic, highly camp way), a musical of.. dubious but magical quality, and not one or two, but SIX stunning comic adaptations.. I just think it’s time to stop pitting the show against the movie when it’s all part of this massive, deeply flawed yet incredibly beautiful, wonderfully queer body of work.

And after all this time, I wash my hands of your charade And celebrate your fall from grace Preserve that sad look on your face And praise what God might manifest Himself to beings such as us For vengeance, that at last is mine Come sweetly after all this time

When when. Armand kisses Lestat and pats him condescendingly on the cheek and genuinely thinks that he has the upper hand because of Claudia but then Lestat throws his Marius trauma in his face so Armand throws him off the tower. That’s true romance right there
