show and tell- euphoria new season

I have mixed feelings about the new season of Euphoria and it may be highly controversial. The pacing is my biggest issue. Each episode feels too slow and focuses on the same storyline for too long. Just when something interesting starts to happen, the episode ends, which makes it frustrating to stay interested. Instead of building suspense, it feels like the show is dragging things out. In earlier seasons, there was a better balance between slow emotional moments and intense or dramatic scenes, but now it feels like it leans too much on the slow parts.I’m also not happy with how some characters are handled. Fez getting 30 years in jail feels extreme and unfair, especially since many viewers liked him and connected with his story. Lexi also isn’t in the season enough, which is disappointing because she added something important before. Overall, the season feels less exciting, and I hope it improves.

    I’ve never watched euphoria before, but from watching the trailer in class the new season seems a little all over the place and has to much going on I feel.

    I agree!!! The pacing feels really slow this season. The long gap in filming and COVID delays affected the flow, so they’re trying to catch everything up. It definitely feels different from earlier seasons when things moved faster and had more balance overall.

    I couldnt agree with you more. Especially with the comment about Fez, I can honestly say I almost cried when Rue pretended like she was on the phone with him. I do hope it gets better though. I enjoyed nate getting beat up, very much deserved lol

A Heated Rivalry or Wicked Misogyny?

Image
 As someone who may hold bias to the extent that I refuse to watch Heated Rivalry, I think it's important to state that I've seen a couple of episodes, and the show just isn't for me. I've also watched both the Wicked movies starring Cynthia Erivo and Arianna Grande. Now you are probably wondering what these two media films have in common. Well, nothing to be exact, and I think that's the preface we must state first.  This isn't about the series/movies, it's about the co-stars, but first, here's a little context you may need to understand where I am coming from. Arianna Grande plays in the musical adaptation of Wicked and Wicked for Good, directed by Jon M. Chu. She takes on the role of playing Galina (Galinda the Good), she is a very privileged and self-absorbed young woman who attends Shiz University and ends up facing an internal battle of being for the people or wanting her personal desire to keep her bond with Elphaba. Elphaba Thropp (The Wicked Wit...

Intro/Post-Grad Plans!

Hi everyone, My name is Emily Webb, and I’m from Frederick, Maryland. I am a senior majoring in Digital Culture & Design with a double minor in Graphic Design and Social Media. I am currently finishing up my applications for Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) programs in Technology Education or Art Education. My goal is to become a secondary teacher for digital arts courses. I am excited about combining my love for digital media with teaching and helping students develop both creative and technical skills. Outside of school, I enjoy crafting with my Cricut. I love designing projects and bringing them to life by pressing my designs onto clothes and other items. Creating something tangible from a digital idea is really rewarding. I’m looking forward to connecting with all of you, sharing ideas, and learning from your experiences this semester!  If you’re a senior, what are your post-grad plans (I know, the dreaded question), and if you’re not, what are you hoping to do after gradua...
