So a few minutes ago I was on Twitter and then Mick (who plays Abe the Detective in WKM) posted this
So, there’s the suspicion that the project that he is refering to is the new Wilford video. As Mark said that they would film it this week and Mick said in a previous tweet that he would take a little break because he was gonna be on a film shoot for a friend.
Or if that didn’t convince you enough, in this photo we see Mark.
At this point it’s basically confirmed that Abe comes back
Now, knowing that in WKM Abe didn’t die he is mostly tracking down Wilford, thanks to the last audio we hear at the end if the final chapter of WKM.
But here’s the question, why would he be in what seems to be a jail?
Maybe Wil got caught and arrested for murdering Mark, and the Detective is the one who found him?????
So, this past weekend, I took my 11-year-old daughter to SuperCon to meet her favorite actor (and favorite Doctor), Peter Capaldi.
She wore a little blue TARDIS-decorated dress and some Doctor Who pins, and she nearly cried with joy when Capaldi greeted her for the photo op. He was a consummate gentleman and such a sweet and enthusiastic person.
An hour or so after the wonderful photo op experience, she and I were sitting at a table in the food court area.
A burly, older man plopped down nearby. He looked at my little girl’s outfit, smiled, and said, “Do you even KNOW anything about Doctor Who?”
WTF, dude?
I was too stunned for a second to even respond, so he started right in with the ‘quizzing.’
“Who are the Doctor’s biggest enemies, and what planet does he come from?” this stranger asked.
Now I had moved past shocked and right into indignant/angry/protective mode.
“I don’t want her to be quizzed on something she loves, because I don’t want her thinking she has to prove ANYthing in order to be a fan,“ I told him.
Looking at my daughter, I said “You don’t owe strangers explanations or information, ok?“ She said OK and looked relieved.
Still he pressed on, patronizing grin and all: “Oh, I just want to be sure parents are raising their kids right.” Then he turned to my daughter again and asked “Who was the first Doctor, then?”
I cut him off right there. “No. I don’t want her quizzed. At all.”
Dude blinked in disbelief, sighed, and left about a minute later.
“Thanks,” my daughter said. “He was making me feel awkward.”
I held her hand and looked into her eyes. “Some men think they can have power over you by making you prove yourself. You never have to do it. They’re just insecure and pitiful, so they want to make you feel like it, too. It’s not only about fan stuff, and it’s not always just men, but be careful not to fall into that trap, ok?”
That crap isn’t harmless fun. It sets up a pattern of approval-seeking, self-justification, self-doubt, and fear of exclusion that is very dangerous for children (particularly girls).
Fuck that.
TL;DR: Do NOT come at me, my little girl, or anyone in my vicinity with your condescending, gatekeeping bullshit.
The next time, I won’t make the mistake of even TRYING to be polite.
Ladies (and gentlemen who Get It, and folks who are both or neither and also Get It): don’t forget, if you see someone doing this to another fan in a public space, you most def can speak up and call them a shithead for it. Even if the quizzing isn’t a fandom you’re into.
Ok, let’s admit it. The Biggest Forced Hetero Relationship on tv ever had to be Kelsi and Ryan from High school musical.
ALRIGHT KIDDOS IT’S TIME TO LEARN A THING.
Fun fact: Lucas Grabeel (the actor who played Ryan) had specifically asked the director if Ryan could be a gay character. The director (Kenny Ortega) thought that it was a great idea, and they both went to Disney to ask if they could pepper in the fact that Ryan was gay, or include a shot of him with a boy, maybe in the background.
Disney didn’t give the okay on that, so they had to instead force him into a relationship with Kelsi, despite neither Lucas or Kenny wanting him to be a straight character.
In the outtakes from the third movie, Lucas actually grabs Zeke (not sure of the actor’s name, sorry!) and straight up makes out with him, simply to spite Disney. You can find that blooper on DVD versions.
(Keep in mind that Zeke was actually Sharpay’s love interest throughout the trilogy, starting with the after-credits scene of the first movie.)
So yeah. Ryan was actually a homosexual character, but he was forced into a straight relationship through Disney. Thanks, Disney.
HE
SHOULD
HAVE
BEEN
WITH
CHAD
*whispers* I don’t dance
I love that even though Disney didnt give an okay on it, the director and crew members involved still managed to pepper or sneak in something that is gay.. *ahem* Ryan and Chad switching clothes after I Don’t Dance..
there’s really no heterosexual explanation for this!
A high school musical remake would only matter if it made Ryan gay and let him date Chad
I really feel like Ryan and Kelsi wasn’t a couple and was more mlm and wlw solidarity.(Because face it she was totally in love with that one dancer girl I don’t remember the name of from stick to the status quo.)
Kelsi and Ryan were 100% closeted gay and possibly faking a relationship to avoid suspicion or prosecution fight me
Whenever Virgil wants to hug one of the other sides, he says “yeet” and throws himself at them.
Virgil: *feeling anxious*
Roman: Are you all right, Virge? Can i hug you, my love?
Virgil: Yeet *throws himself into Romans arms*
Roman: *chuckles*
————–
Patton: Heya kiddo, i made you some cookies!
Virgil: *tearing up* YEET *throws himself at patton*
—————-
Logan: Virgil, I heard about what happened and brough you some Crofters–
Virgil: YEET *Throws himself at a perplexed Logan*
I love this. Yeet is their only warning. Nothing else, and that’s hilarious cause like.. their reactions would be great and I’m just imagining confused Logan as Virgil launches over a couch screaming YEET and then is suddenly hugging him.
once virgil yelled yeet at something else and all three of them just instinctively opened their arms
