If I had a nickel for every beautiful black and blonde haired boy couple that put me on an emotional rollercoaster...
I'd have 5 nickels, which IS a lot ..
ok, i have to say this before i say anything else about the rwrb movie:
when the book came out, it was groundbreaking. it was one of the first true queer rom coms. this movie is now even more groundbreaking.
yes, some depth and detail was lost from the book, but that’s bound to happen in any adaptation. but before we complain about that, let’s ask ourselves:
exactly how many fluffy, fairy tale, sexy, funny, sugary, queer romance movies are there? you could probably count them all on one hand, and most of them probably aren’t major studio releases.
queer people deserve silly romcom movies too. queer people deserve to see themselves in tender, uncensored intimate moments on screen too. and, correct me if i’m wrong, but i’m pretty sure this is the first time a major motion picture has explicitly mentioned truvada/PrEP and included a conversation between a parent and child about safe queer sex. like…queer people don’t get shit like this, and now we do. and that’s a big deal.
TEXTS AND EMAILS WERE INCORPORATED SO WELL AND THE CALLS BEING HENRY "THERE BUT NOT PHYSICALLY" FUCKING WRECKED ME BYE
rwrb movie referencing dialogue in the book (just the ones I remember the best at 4AM after watching it):
- thank you for the etiquette lesson, your majesty
- it's your royal highness
- takes the cake?
- but darling we were ever so careful
- you have a lot of moles is that from the inbreeding
- dumb tie color argument
- you've been wanting him to dick you down for ages
- shut up stop talking
- you're going to stay 500 feet away from me at all times then I'm going to do very bad things to you
- gay as a maypole. ...I don't know what that is
- why not name him Bowie? ...bit on the nose don't you think ?
- you let her bring a phone in here?!
- the B in LGBTQ isn't silent you know
- it was my fault for making assumptions when I first gave you the talk SO
- I thought the prince of England would be more of a candy ass
- I thought you might be to have a Catholic moment ... Hey you little shit you're talking to the patron saint of gender neutral bathrooms
- I've never felt this way about someone before
- tell me you want me to leave :(((((
- Henry's lil fantasy about dancing at the museum
- history, huh? bet we could make some
- there's no going back after this. ... God I hope not
storylines rwrb movie didn't include that you get if you read the book:
(ok I loved the movie the cute romcom it is is ADORABLE but if you're interested in the characters and storyline then boy do I have a treat for you!) NO BOOK SPOILERS AHEAD
- Claremont v Richards is such a well done, realistic political race oh my god it hangs over the whole book it's immaculate
- leaked emails is like a whole fuckin plot point that gets built up to
- Bea is recovering from a major health issue...
- Alex has a sister her name is June and she's a DELIGHT
- there's a whole poly-ish relationship with Nora, June, and Pez
- Liam, Alex's friend from high school
- Alex, not realizing he's bi until it's blindingly obvious to everyone else
- the fuckery that gets Alex on a plane to London after the emails were leaked
- Luna, a gay hispanic senator who is like the center of politics for 2/3 of the book
- Alex overworking himself on the campaign to try not to love Henry
- disagreements between Ellen and Oscar
- Catherine, Bea and Henry's mum
- a shit ton of nuance into Henry's feelings on the UK's queer history and Alex's finding his queer identity
- Henry goes to therapy! his dad dying is like a major part of his life and it's really beautifully handled
- Amy's life! her wife!
- Cash, another secret service agent
- really detailed morning in Paris! they're adorable what can I tell you
he's married. to a man. and he got to pretend to be disgusted at the word homosexual. I have a new life goal
stephen fry playing a homophobic king is so funny to me. they really said get the man who would hate this character with burning passion. and he ATE
actually seeing henry on screen recommending picture of dorian gray and ranting about byron to alex and seeing alex still not realize henry is gay is so hilarious and so precious to me like this is true representation for the oblivious gays
ok so remember john mulaney's snl monologue? the part where he mildly suggests that we stab trump? yeah so that energy but it's Alex who's delivering the snl monologue and instead of trump he says the queen
