so, holy week is next week and i'm trying to watch as many versions of jesus christ superstar as i can. i've never seen the 2k version and i actually liked it so much???? so here are a few of my favorite things

 the aesthetic was so so so good. i mean, the costumes, the sets, everything, was *chef’s kiss*

 GLENN CARTER IS SO HOT AND FOR WHAT

the whole dynamic between jesus and judas in “heaven in their minds”

CAIAPHAS’S VOICE????????

the way jesus turns around when he hears “would you die for me?” in “hosanna”

simon’s aesthetic. completely in love.

also, the way judas rolls his eyes in “poor jerusalem” when jesus says “nor judas”

mary’s reaction when she sees judas when she’s about to kiss jesus

simon’s face when jesus says “this wine could be my blood”

the apostles singing the chorus of “the last supper” with tears in their eyes after jesus and judas’s first confrontation

also, THE ENTIRETY OF THE CONFRONTATION

judas YEETING jesus out of the table

GETHSEMANE WAS AMAZING

AND THE KISS OMG

jesus’s face during king herod’s song like so sick of your bullshit

the way they did the 39 lashes. loved it.

and of course, the entirety of “superstar”

and the way at the end, mary and judas stay with jesus when he’s taken off the cross
