he’s so silly

[rockrosethistle]

my favourite genre of photo right now is Jon Matteson using a humidifier and I'd like to thank Jeff Blim for his recent contribution to the cause

Sometimes, I remember the Pete audition tapes where Joey Richter just has a full beard but is still doing the crackly teen voice

if i had a nickel for every time i’ve been obsessed with a stephanie who wears a beanie and is queer and wants to kiss a nerdy protagonist with glasses who enjoys at least one performing arts hobby, i would have 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice

[yourwagonisaflame]

oh my god mariah's what if tomorrow comes cover???

CHAT I HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE THIS IS A WIGGLY ONE. I AM NOT FREAKING OUT YOU'RE FREAKING OUT.

I was just scrolling through Pinterest and I found this really cute picture of Angela and Mariah right?

I then notice something on the wall, so I zoom in and flip the picture

DOES ANYONE HAVE MORE PICTURES OF THESE ADORABLE LIB WEARING MASKS POSTERS BC I NEED MORE IN MY LIFE

Cast photo redraw (NPMD Shenanigans)

I have found some BTS photos in pintrest and it felt like an obligation to redraw one of them.

My do this more often :)

If you haven't already go check out the new bts featurette from nerdy prudes must die

(it's unlisted so you will need to go to the npmd playlist on the starkid channel)

watching the npmd bts again and getting gender envy what's new

NPMD thoughts! (SPOILERS UNDER CUT)

oh my god. the jump in quality from the digital ticket to the actual edited version is INCREDIBLE. fucking LOVED the details of costumes, the set, the lighting, the writing on the panels... everything was fantastic! starkid has come such a long way and it was incredible to see the seats filled for the show in the edited version!!!

spoiler thoughts, would love to hear what other people thought! warning for rambling and a lot of caps and excessive punctuation since i can't control my emo-shuns after watching a starkid show, as always 🤪

i was really hoping for the boy jerri/girl jerri moment AND the coffee shop bloopers from the digital ticket to be in this one, but every performance is unique and i'm glad we got to experience the new hatchet-town cameos!

GERALD AND ZIGS AND MAN IN A HURRY (JEFF CAMEO!!!!!) MY BELOVEDS <3

speaking of, i hope the bonus features include bts from the night where the power went out!

high school is killing me is STUCK IN MY HEAD

dirty girl was so fucking good HD. INCREDIBLE

sadly i really wanted some wider shots, especially when everyone was onstage and particularly during the lords in black scene - though it was AMAZING to see the details up close since from the digital ticket we couldn't really see what was happening.

THE SCREAMING WHEN JON STARTED TALKING AS WIGGLY... ME TOO!!!

fucking ADORE the "show me your hands" theme playing with curt's cop, and the "inevitable" piano playing when paul and emma were in Beanies. THEY'RE SO CUTE but it makes me sad BUT FOREVER AND ALWAYS RIGHT <3

also the nightmare time theme during the interval!!!

one thing i really miss about these new starkid recordings is that we don't get the stage bows :( i would have absolutely loved if they did something akin to TGWDLM in black friday and NPMD, where the credits roll over the footage of the cast bowing and the claps! the bows at the end of a show are always so fun, it's a great moment of catharsis for everyone and seeing the cast smiling and happy is something i missed here. ESPECIALLY WITH THE ENERGY IN THE HOMECOMING DANCE

will can STEP ON ME as Max. he's so meta and plays the part so well! apparently the role was rumoured to possibly be Jeff's but I'm so glad Will was Max. we needed the fresh blood onstage in the hatchetverse!

it's so incredible Bryce was able to perform onstage and that Jae got a cameo! HELL YES TO THE NIGHTMARE TIME GANG <3

really wish bryce and kim had bigger roles in this musical, especially bryce as before the digital ticket came out starkid hyped her up so much on the socials. BUT SHE NAILED HER VOCALS and when everyone started screaming/applauding when she hit That Note!!!!! YES!!!!!!

love how we can make comments on the recording, seeing everyone so hyped about the show and loving the show is so affirming! i hope everyone who worked on the show is feeling the love!

i still don't really understand the barbeque monologues and feel they're a bit out of place, maybe because it's an american school musical thing?? but lauren fucking owned it!

kim screaming after ruth died. GET IT SLAY ME WITH YOUR RANGE MAAM

compared to my first impressions from the digital ticket, this is a huge step up. some songs were a bit hit or miss, but man i was crying at the end about peter and steph. love how, like the other two hatchetverse musicals, the ending note was fucked up! that being said tho i am keen for starkid to move onto another potential parody OR a new IP outside of the hatchetverse. i'm super keen to see what the future holds for the company! it's absolutely on my bucket list to watch a starkid show live now <3

[lopez-richter-fangirl]

I believe there was a stretch goal where we would get like a backstage/bts thing for jangle ball and npmd right? I wonder if and when we will see that, especially jangle ball is now quite a while ago!

There was! But jangle ball also should be getting a dvd/dd release this year so if they did remember it makes sense to have it after the releases

[isogenderskitty]

apologies because this is a bit of a swerve from wiggly but speaking of the humanised LiB i am never getting over the bts clip where nick is showing everyone the LiB NPMD costume moodboards and he gets to tinky and just goes "so, tinky is a backstreet boy." like. hi? what do you MEAN BY THIS nicholas. how did you get from demonic stinky clownish goat mascot creature to backstreet boy. i want a whole featurette just about That decision

I still can’t believe Starkid themselves made a human twinkified Wiggly before tumblr did.

[nogooddeetz]

steph’s homecoming look was inspired by an outfit mariah herself owns and wears! how cute is that!

[art-b-y-eden]

She's so skrunkly! NO NPMD spoilers please! I'm drawing this with just the bts pictures Starkid gave us, and I won't be seeing the show until the digital ticket release (on the 21st), so if this isn't accurate to how she is in the musical, it isn't my fault. :)

[ender-of-the-sender]

GUYS PLEASE SEND ME AS MANY NPMD BACKSTAGE PICTURES YOU CAN FIND BECAUSE I NEED THESE DUDE. BACKSTAGE, DRESSING ROOMS, IN THE LITTLE HALLWAYS ?? PLEASEEEE

I was just scrolling through Pinterest and I found this really cute picture of Angela and Mariah right?

Kinda sad we didn't get a BTS for NPMD but I'm also loving the anatomy of song vids

We didn’t get a BTS vid for TGWDLM either though right? Apart from the one that was specifically a kickstarter perk. The anatomy of songs are themselves great BTS
