Nihonniboku posted:I don't see Tempest (too dated), Jasmine (too sloppy), Trixie (Michelle is going to go to town on her makeup), or Max (too one note) lasting very long. We'll see though. For the first time in a few seasons I haven't followed all the internet sleuthing showing off what these queens can really do, it's just my own speculation from the promo videos and the first 10 minutes of the first episode. I dunno man, after watching the first two episodes Trixie is actually pretty strong. She also can paint like a regular queen so I'm interested in seeing whether or not she does it for a challenge to appease Michelle. Edit: Plus, she has most of the best lines of the talking heads.

Man, that episode was awesome. My favorite lines were Violet saying "No one says that, but yeah" in reply to Jasmine saying Hotlanta and Pearl saying "Bitch, I'm from New York. You can wear fur in the spring... OK?" My dream top 3 is Pearl, Katya and a tie between Violet and Trixie.

CHiRAL posted:P.S. Sasha Bell is great and getting a bad edit Honestly, I'm super underwhelmed by Sasha. Maybe it's her voice but she kind of annoys me. Untucked was super cute but the ending was also really depressing. I really like Pearl after watching untucked. She just feels so... genuine, like she doesn't really know how to react to people being shady towards her type of innocence thing going on.

Good god, watching Untucked has made me really despise Jasmine Masters. She just will not shut up! Overall I thought the episode itself was kind of boring. I hope next week is much better.

shadow puppet of a posted:Anyone 22 years old and playing at 'old soul' is grating. Low energy like she has a glucose problem. The Madonna voice, esp when outed as from Wisconsin. And not being very likable or fun up until her "murder them" speech in ep 2 untucked. I also think that she looks like she threw on a wig and some lip gloss, unfortunately Courtney can pull it off. Max just looks like a boy in a wig.

PsychoticKitten posted:I kind of suspect that Trixie trying to get off stage when they were working on the music video in front of RU was what sealed her fate. I will admit when I went back and watched the finished video again that Trixie didn't really stand out especially next to Katya's genius performance. I still think it's bullshit even if I can see the reasoning. Honestly watching it, the team with Kennedy was the worst of all of three. I'm pretty sure the only reason they won was because it was advertising Ru's crap.

Nihonniboku posted:You're probably right. Hopefully this is the last of the group challenges so that we can stop some of these queens riding the coattails of others. That and it seems like the group as a whole is judged only when it is convenient.

Ironic Twist posted:Speaking of which, what does everyone think the top 3's going to be? My guess is Ginger, Katya, and Fame. As much as I hate to see Katya not in the top three I'm fairly certain it will be Ginger, Violet, and Pearl.

Power of Pecota posted:I want Katya to win and Max to get the Miss Congeniality money. I feel like Violet's probably making the final 3 but not winning, and I guess Ginger for the last one since I can't see Jaidynn/Fame/Kennedy making it in. I can kinda see Pearl, if any of Katya/Violet/Ginger slip up she's probably poised to go in. Max is my favorite, but with how much Michelle Visage has been going after him I feel like he'll be on thin ice + there's guaranteed going to be one or two challenges super stacked against him (thinking of the rap video one from last season especially). Miss Congeniality was a nice silver lining for Ben last season, so I'm hoping Max gets it this time~ Well, my reasoning is: Pearl because they're clearly giving her an Adore-esque arc where she is a young queen that pulls herself up Violet because she has a clearly defined story arc too. She is going from 'mean girl' to trying to change and actually be nicer. Speaking of, has anyone ever done that on the show? Ginger because she is a ringer for the top 3 'villain' a la Roxxy. Edit: Everyone else has some weird non-story story. They may have SOMETHING going but it isn't very clearly defined. We're supposed to like the first two I listed because we can follow them.

Vertigo Ambrosia posted:Why do you think Violet's going soon? She's rarely severely criticized, especially for runway looks, and since there have been so many drat acting challenges I doubt there'll be another one for her to fail at anytime soon. Yeah, I'd be EXTREMELY surprised if she didn't make top 3.

I'm so happy that Trixie is back but I hope this isn't like all the other returns where they're almost instantly gone. This episode was fantastic and from the preview for next week, it will be just as good. Can't wait!

I think my problem this season has been the use of teams. It seems like they only made so many team challenges in order to use the 'judged as a team' umbrella when they needed it. e.g. Kennedy not getting criticism on her hot mess of an outfit or Trixie being eliminated a second time even though she did well. I mean I get why they did it that way, just an annoying crutch used for the purpose of ~the story~.

caligulamprey posted:Well, a friend blew it for me, so I would like to point out that after crowing the entire season about how Ru was clearly aiming for the first big girl win, crowning the tiniest waist in Drag Race herstery is delicious enough it might justify crowning someone who, while having changed throughout the season for the better, is still a pretty gross human being. How do you figure that? I don't see that happening with her. I think she's self aware enough to not have that happen.

caligulamprey posted:To me, it just feels like crowning Violet could lead her into confirming for herself every move that she had made was the correct decision rather than reflecting on how she was received in the front half of the season and how she can continue to better herself. Yeah, I definitely don't see this happening. One interview asked what the best advice Ru gave was and she said something about Ru telling her to look at how you say things and how they're perceived. So she definitely put some thought into it. I think Violet will continue doing what she does but also growing. She seems self aware enough to know she has growing to do.

Oh man. I'm so excited. Denver's finally having one of the big Drag Shows that is at a venue and not a bar. It's fan favs meaning: Pearl, Katya, Adore, Alaska, Willam and Trixie hosted by Bianca Del Rio. I also got Front row center meet and greet tickets. Good god I can't wait!

Nihonniboku posted:This lines right up with everything heard about Willam. He is a total and absolute professional, works incredibly hard, and really appreciates his fans because he knows that's where his business comes from. I have met Willam three separate times and each time this shown through 1000%.
