Do y'all have any?

EDIT: Meant to say They're instead of Their, fuck.

I've had 3

  1. Someone made a grand opera about The Owl House. Not even a musical, like some Verdi shit.

  2. In the final episodes, instead of summoning the Collector, Dr. Doofenshmirtz was brought to the Boiling Isles. All I remember him doing was riding a toy train with King while making choo-choo noises.

  3. Had a dream where the Collector turned all of the Boiling Isles, including Luz and the gang, into puppets by singing The Impossible Dream from Man of La Mancha. (I was working on a production when those episodes came out.)

TBH, the initial trailers and general marketing (such as the website) for the film was my personal "you had to be there" moment, and to this day it's one of the most effective marketing of any horror film. Nothing was spoiled, and all it did was have you guessing what the hell was going to happen.

With that, before the movie came out, what was your belief in what was going to happen in the film. For me, when I saw that frame of Alex in the first full trailer, I genuinely thought it was going to involve vampires (I thought the lipstick was blood, and because Sinners came out a while before, I thought vampires were the shit). I also thought, given the website mentioned that Justine was let go because of "an incident at her previous school" I thought she was going to be a supernatural being as well. (rather than her previous firing being a one-of line). I also saw discussions around it being a Pied Piper story, which was correct, but I thought it was going to be a dude rather Gladys. Also, I saw ideas that it was going to be an allegory for school shootings, and I thought that literally and thought it was going to have a even worse ending where the kids come back and start slaughtering everyone ala Crypt TV's Kinderfanger. (I am lowkey thankful that didn't happen)
