HEIDI BERGMANN & MAX WOLFE in gossip girl 2.09

[georgcfan]

um yeah what’s this here then?

[fubureaders]

did they end the reboot today ON PURPOSE?????

[bigassbowlingballhead]

With every HBO cancellation I think back to this headline 

it appears to be more and more true every day, even though it’s from the daily beast

[lanne13]

I’m so genuinely pissed off that a show that was supposed to have one its core relationships be an endgame triad is now going to have a series finale that effectively calls polyamory bullshit that I cannot full express how upset I am. It’s not just that we *never* see polyamory unless it’s a joke or a failed relationship; it’s that this unplanned ending destroys one of the core tenets of the show. By ending the arc two-thirds of the way through, it doesn’t just make the arc pointless: it turns it against itself.

Max, Audrey, and Aki were endgame and now they’re broken up forever. They’ve been building to a triad since their first scene and now that’s all for nothing, not because of the writing but because of the network and I’m just so sad about stories that don’t get endings, that don’t get to finish what they were trying to say. I know it’s the gossip girl reboot of all things but there was a story here! There was a point, an argument, an outright statement that polyamory can work and three people can love each other and be in a happy, healthy relationship and now, because the story gets a stop but not an end, we don’t get to see that. These kids were going to spend the next season getting over and through their growing pains and they were going to be endgame and now? Now they’re just the feelings I have about them, I guess

top five fic titles you haven't used yet; top five worst adaptations or reboots

ask me my top fives!

top five unused fic titles:

click the pieces into sharp arrangements

what would an angel say? (the devil wants to know)

memories are films about ghosts

searching through thrift store jungles

your stories ring of perjury

top five worst adaptations/reboots(/remakes):

Going with the first few things that pop into my head.

 I think most reboots/remakes of horror movies from the 80s are bad and unnecessary. Sometimes it’s because the original isn’t great - Prom Night (1980) is not my jam; Prom Night (2008) is somehow worse! Sometimes it’s because the original is good enough that it doesn’t need a remake, especially one so subpar - Brian De Palma’s Carrie (1976) vs Carrie (2013); Black Christmas (1974) is great so what the hell happened with Black Christmas (2006, 2019)? And sometimes it’s because certain movies really work for that decade and either don’t translate to a modern day setting or there’s nothing that putting it in a modern day setting will add to the story - John Carpenter’s original Halloween (1978) works because it’s so atmospheric and he knew how to light a movie so you could actually SEE what was happening; Rob Zombie’s Halloween (2007) is so terrible in so many ways, but mostly because I don’t need or care about Michael Myers’ tragic backstory; David Gordon Green’s Halloween (2018) reboot/remake trilogy thing said nothing new but annoyed me plenty AND killed off Judy Greer AND I couldn’t see shit so what was the point? Horror remakes: just don’t do them. 

Almost every time they take an animated Disney movie and turn it into an uninspired live action and/or photorealistic live action movie, I’m not into it. It’s never as vibrant, it’s never as fun, sometimes they miscast SO badly (sorry Emma Watson) - use your Disney+ subscription to watch 2D animation like the universe intended. The Lion King animated movie is gorgeous; The Lion King photorealistic movie looks like mud.

I’m not saying that the original Gossip Girl on the CW was a work of art (I’m not saying the first season was not a work of art either though), but it wasn’t as boring as the HBOMax reboot. Truly, no one was likable on that show and they made Luke Kirby a creep! No one asked for this!

Long before we had Marvel/superhero fatigue, 20th Century Fox made the first X-men movie with the positively inspired casting choices of Hugh Jackman, Patrick Stewart, and Ian McKellan and I loved it! Even X2 was fun. (X3 went off the rails and was bad.) Ten years later and a solo Wolverine movie in between, they decided to soft reboot the franchise with those First Class movies and you know what? They shouldn’t have. Except for one or two moments here and there, those movies are all pretty awful. I’m not sure how you can mess up the Days of Future Past storyline that badly or cast Oscar Isaac only to make him a member of the blue man group, but they should all be ashamed. I still maintain that the most worthwhile X-Men adaptation in media is the animated series from the 90s.

I don’t know if this qualifies as a soft reboot but when Fox brought The X-Files back in 2016, it was a lesson in “be careful what you wish for because it’s going to suck.” Except I didn’t wish for this because I watched the second movie and it sucked so I was completely fine with never getting more new episodes again. What we got was Scully whispering a lot, some half-assed search for William that I was not invested in (they spent nine seasons denying Mulder and Scully had boned even after she had his damn kid!), and monsters of the week episodes that were so uninspired that I didn’t even watch the second season of the reboot (maybe didn’t finish the first season of the reboot?). And now there’s talk of a Jordan Peele remake of the show to which I say - find something else. The (OG) X-Files worked because it was the perfect place in the perfect time with the perfect people and you’re never going to trap that lightning in a bottle twice so why try?

I hate the time of year when you find out which of your tv-shows are ending and which ones get renewed!

These are the ones I currently know are ending

First Titans(2018) on HBOMAX which I kinda understand as it has definitely had it’s struggles since the start, but it’s still sad😢

Gossip Girl(2021) didn’t have any particular feelings about the cancellation, but still another show gone

Then I just found out NCIS: Los Angeles is cancelled after season 14 😭 yes, I know the news came out a little while ago, but I’ve been trying to avoid spoilers since season 14 just started here. Couldn’t they have cancelled NCIS instead? As I feel like that show has gone down hill and needs to retire, I said what I said.

Ugh, now it’s just waiting and crossing my fingers that I won’t loose too many of my shows this year

[fubureaders]

cancelling gossip girl on hbomax right after luna, monet and aki's storylines start getting flushed out?

[sftmuse]

I want to fight the executive at HBOMax that thought it was a good idea to cancel gossip girl reboot. firstly, I only have the app for that and euphoria. secondly, IM STILL WATCHING THAT. The season finale/final season really just hurt my heart. But I was still please with what happened too Kate.

[harrytheehottie]

Is gossip girl still going?????

it got cancelled now so after s2 is over it’s done on hbomax for now
