Can’t even lie, they had me in the beginning, they popped off with that first song and the nod to Cameron Boyce and lmao it sorta lowkey went downhill from there but also didn’t?

You can clearly see that Kenny Ortega did not have anything to do with this movie lmao like sorry but I wasn’t feeling it, I think there was 2 songs that the group dancing actually went off, but other than that? Nope not for me lol it seemed like a jumble of nothing happening, and that is probably just me comparing it to the first three movies too much but yeah

Also, the plot was like super fast, we didn’t get to see the big prank that created the queen of hearts villain, we didn’t get to see enough of the villain kids at Merlin Academy, we didn’t get to see or hear about anything in between, like what did the Queen of Hearts to do make wonderland the only kingdom to not be welcome in Auradon? And like I get the ominous ending but like idk it felt like it was missing something. But my god I WISH we saw more of the VKs like I’m telling you, I’d watch a whole show of young Hades, Maleficent, Uliana, Hook and Morgie(is that his name? Lol) anyways yeah it was rushed imo, it was shorter than the first three movies too I think, and maybe by only 15 minutes, but that extra few minutes in the first three movies really helped

So I’m about to point out some plot holes so don’t mind me lol

-Chad being Chloe’s older brother but also that he got into university lmao. Are we assuming he’s adopted? Because Chad is white boy blond hair Chad, and as much as I love that Brandy and Paolo were Cinderella and Charming again, it wasnt exactly adding up. That and why did he randomly get a sister? Was she ever mentioned before this movie? And how did this boy get into university? They mentioned tourney so maybe an athletic scholarship lmao

-Hades and Maleficent are clearly together at Merlin Academy, yet it’s a secret that he’s Mals dad, wouldn’t they all like know lol? Uliana is Ursula’s little sister, and Hades and Maleficent are part of her crew, so she clearly knows, and Fairy godmother/Fae, went to school with them, but even she didn’t clock it???

They actually had me at historical drama and the horse part was just a bonus

It was like a fantasy version of The White Princess/Queen, The Spanish Princess and all the other ones from Starz

The actress who plays Jane, Emily Bader, is so giving Adelaide Kanes Mary Queen of Scots from Reign

*SPOILERS*

Okay so when Clary’s memories of the shadow world disappear, in the one year later, everyone’s basically all like yeah it’s hard to stay away from her blah blah blah it’s against the angels wishes to try and fix it but it’s all good cause we’ve all got happy endings except for Jace who doesn’t accept it obviously

My first question: Simon was part of her world before the Shadow world, why couldn’t he have still been apart of her world? Same with Luke? I get that she didn’t have the sight anymore, but don’t the downworlders just appear as regular humans anyways so Simon definitely could’ve still been in her life right? Luke I guess cause he’s a shadowhunter it makes it more complicated? Idk like I kinda wanna know what exactly her memories are? Does she think Simon is dead like his mom does? What does she think happens to her mom and dot and Luke?

Second question: clary literally went against the angels multiple times to protect and save and help her friends who are all living their best life, why didn’t they do the same for her LOL like I know they risked a lot to save her before too but idk I feel like they definitely could’ve done something

Third question: why did they cancel this and end it like that because I literally needed more than her being like “you’re Jace right?” With a knowing look like how are you gonna do that to me and end it there? I needed her and Izzy to become parabatais and reconnect with everyone especially Simon and I needed Magnus to call her biscuit again and Alec to give her that relieved hug like how Clarke gives Bellamy in the 100 😬

It was time for a rewatch but now I’ll just repost a bunch of gifs and pics instead 🥲

The songs slap, at first, only the first song really stuck with me, but after watching it a million times they’re all actually good. I think life is sweeter was giving final song energy, like how set it off and break this down did. The only thing I will say, is I still don’t like the choreography of fight of our lives, not sure why, just didn’t love it

Chloe’s goddamn wig. It bothers me so much because I swear ever scene she’s got a different one, and like ???? What was the reason?

Uma reprising what’s my name, iconic. My only question about that, is where are Harry and Gil? Harry is supposed to be her first mate, and she’s got a bunch of pirates with her, but those two aren’t there. I know Gil wanted to travel with Jay, so fine, but Harry Hook would’ve been great because we get to see Young Hook in the past

Uliana. What is/was her fate in present time? We know Ursula had Uma, and so she’s obviously Uma’s aunt, but like, what if she never became a villain after school and wasn’t on the isle? (Wishful thinking I know) but is her present ever mentioned? Did I miss it lol?

We never see Anastasia or Drizella, and I wish we had seen at least Drizella because I loved Dizzy so much

When Chloe and Red get back to present time, wouldn’t everyone recognize them from the past? Everyone they interacted with? Ella and Bridget, Jasmine and Aladdin, Charming, Fair Godmother. I guess we only saw a few minutes of them after they returned to the present so maybe that’s what Chloe and Cinderella are thinking when they find each other at the end.
