Okay so first James was amazing and idk if this makes sense but whenever I think of Ralph I immediately think of James because in my mind that’s LITERALLY Ralph (same for Tom) like he just brings this certain charm that known of other actors have brought (besides Winston’s Ralph) but I’m kinda said there wasn’t much creativity. It kinda felt like a big summary for the book or like a play. But I’ve actually read some people’s opinion and I’ve heard he’s too nice/sympathetic. Now I guess I can see where this is coming from because in the book Ralph is more meaner and a little sassy, but also I’m not gonna pretend Ralph was some evil bully that was shoving Piggy in lockers every minute 💔 and even then Ralph does show empathy for piggy when he begins to rely on him! I just think James’ Ralph leaned into that a little too early. I think that we are forgetting Ralph meant well and wanted to maintain order. Which I personally think James did a great job on that part! But of course he missed some of that early judgment that Ralph had in the book.

So honestly if you asked me if I liked James’ Ralph or Winston’s Ralph more I’D BE REALLY TORN😢(Balthazar’s Ralph is NOT in this conversation) because I love James’ Ralph because the charm he brings and how he shows Ralph’s sympathy but I also really like Winston’s Ralph because of his sassy attitude and optimism. If I had to pick between the two I’d genuinely have an aneurism💔

Now if you told me to pick between Tom’s Jack of Lox’s Jack 👀👀👀 I’m picking Tom 100% like his Jack was just amazing. Don’t get me wrong, Lox did a great job and I enjoyed how he played Jack! But Tom gave me that sociopathic attitude that Jack has in the book. He was genuinely scary and brought fear into the others. He showed no empathy and guilt. He just looked power hungry and I really loved that about his Jack! He’s attitude towards characters like Simon or Ralph was SO PERFECT ALMOST!! Like genuinely he’s the only Jack adaptation I like 😭

anyways I love James Aubrey and Tom Chapin!! They brought so much charm to their movie!!

Yall need to leave all the poc minors in this fandom the fuck alone. This is actual harassment.
