28 euro to watch every WNBA game on demand is actually a really good deal. You can watch every single game from the past 8 years. You should definitely get league pass
Its a good deal if you want to watch more than 1 team :( i just want the wings... i cant afford 28 euros

Ik the internet has collectively decided liking Hamilton is cringe bc ppl were writing real person fic, making founding father self inserts, and because anything that gets a big enough following must be mercilessly shunned after 6-12 months but like, I got surprise tickets to a matinee today as a bday gift and it really IS that good?
Like. I'm not USamerican. I'm not sitting here like "oh yes this is absolutely historically accurate and this is how everything went down and how these ppl were irl". Its a story. A historical adaptation. But it's a Damn Good Story. It's thematically compelling. It's emotionally resonant. It's about hunger and imagining death and ambition, about that desperation that drives you towards elusive satisfaction, about legacy and memory and the construction and telling of narratives, it's about UNEARNED GRACE and impossible forgiveness.
Like it really IS a good story, and as someone who only know these people as /characters/ and not historical figures, they're compelling characters? Their arcs are interesting? Hamilton and Burr as foils is so good? Washington as a model of leadership and of regret? Of legacy earned and unearned? ELIZA??MY EVERYTHING?? She's not a "main" character but the narrative hinges on her, when Hamilton is stripped bare of his ambition he thinks of her. She controls and saves the narrative, ultimately. It comes down to Eliza as the centre of it all, best of wives and best of women truly.
The music is a bop, the choreography fun, the set design simple but effective. Like? I get things that have a massive teen fandom can be annoying, and taking it as Historical Fact would be stupid. But as a story???? It really is that good?
Also we had an understudy as Hamilton and he was v young with such a soft higher voice and it REALLY worked esp in act 1 with the whole young scrappy hungry thing. He was also shorter than Eliza which imo. Perfect. Tiny man among a cast of largely very tall men and a few very tall women.

What do you think of the newly revealed casting in Hazbin Hotel?
So right off the bat, just gonna say replacing all the indie VA's with bigger name broadway stars is a very Vivzie thing to do. It's not Chris Pratt as Mario levels of upsetting, but its still very unfortunate, especially considering that most of the new VA's sound... extremely close to what the previous VA's were going for in the pilot. So the replacement seems a bit sore or unnecessary. I've been told several times by my voice acting friend that this isn't an issue of Union Contracts, but an issue of replacements in favor of more famous talents and burned bridges amongst staff with Viv. Which, you know, if the VAs did undergo unfair treatment of any kind and didn't care leaving the project then kudos to them, but if its not the case for all of them and they were booted off without warning, I'd probably be hurt too.
But I'll be honest in saying Erika, Charlie's new VA is a better singer than the pilot singer. The pilot singer's voice was a little too high pitched, but it could have also been the fast high key song that made it difficult.
Vaggie's VA Stephanie voiced Mirabel from Encanto. Again sounds pretty close to the original VA, just maybe a pinch deeper.
Angel's VA is a bit more nasally and croaky? But only by a little.
Alastor's VA doesn't have as thick of an accent as Bosco gave him, but again, its very subtle.
Husk's new VA on the other hand is straight up Keith David. Cat from Coraline and the Witch Doctor from Princess and the Frog. Husk sounded like a deeper more dead inside Rick Sanchez in the pilot but now he's gonna sound like a... suave jazz singer???? which is a very different take on his character.
Niffty's VA Kimiko is straight up Peni from Spiderverse. I think Viv said she imagined Niffty was half Japanese and from the 50s (Japanese Concentration camps ended in 1946??? I feel like that should effect Niffty's history) Her original VA wasn't Japanese, but she was bilingual and was an Japanese exchange student. So one could make the argument, that is to say if Niffty's Japanese heritage is actually going to be legitimately utilized, that Niffty got a new VA to prevent white washing. But I'm not one to representatively speak on a topic like that.
Alex Brightman is already the VA for Fizzarolli from Helluva Boss, so him as Sir Pentious makes sense. But I think Stamper the original VA already had a really good voice for that character. Perfectly quirky and evil.
So really I feel like maybe one or two characters have significant voice changes while the rest sound almost exactly as they did in the pilot. They are indeed very good VA's and singers, I'm excited they got this opportunity and I'm excited to see what they bring to Hazbin.
On the other hand I just feel so awful for the indie VA's that got replaced because they're not famous broadway singers.
Like that's kind of the whole point of being Indie? Not being a big, major, famous company? Not having big major famous people?
But well, Hazbin Hotel was sold to A24 so... they're certainly not indie anymore.
