So him saying he's fine with gay people but he'd be pissed if his son was gay just tells me that he's not fine with gay people, he just thinks he is because he doesn't have to think about it.

It's loving performative wokeness and he deserves to be loving dragged for it, I don't care who the gently caress you are if you're in a public eye and you espouse poo poo like this you're normalizing hatred.

I'm more excited for this season than I have been for anything since AS2 tbh

T B H yeah

there's just a lot of queens who I know can turn a goddamn look this All Stars and who have a lot of personality; counter that to AS3, where we all went in going "Oh, that's pleasant, that person's here again."

I feel like AS3 was mostly put together to cash in on the Trixie hype train, but this feels more like they just want to do another good-rear end season of talented queens kicking rear end.

I think someone said it earlier in the thread but a lot of AS3 felt like queens who were regarded by the fanbase as "gone too soon" or who got a raw deal (Milk, Ben, Trixie, Thorgy), but without much consideration for if the group would mix well/make for good TV (Trixie/Ben/Kennedy in particular can come across pretty flat/dry). This cast seems much more entertaining.

Dela would have been a great choice for an All Stars if other people in the season were on her level TBH. She can be a loving mess sometimes but every challenge with her was either "she wins instantly" or "she didn't want to try."

But weren't people always laughing AT Jasmine? While she was going for laughs, I never felt like what she was trying to go for is what people were connecting with.

She's legit funny. Her poo poo is funny, she's a great comedic storyteller, but she leaned into what other people had already said was good rather than just being her authentic self.

Like yes, there's a element of hosed up racist dickheads who say "ha ha look at the black thinking they can joke" but the majority of us legit think she's hilarious.

Not great, we've seen this burlesque thing done before, and better. But she wasn't bad until that fall.

I mean yeah, we had a season with Violet, that's like criticizing someone for not doing insult connect to Bianca's level.

The edit kind of told a different story to what everyone saw, like, the edit made Farrah look like she finished fine but everyone's acting like she had a tantrum on stage or just lay there crying for 20 minutes. Which, yeah, it's Farrah, it's possible tbh

I fully expected Gia to be in the bottom and Monet to win that lipsync.

Monet X spoilertextpadding had a way stronger end after the song kicked in, but the other person opened strong and carried that strength all the way through. You can't just stand around for the first minute loosely touching your hips and expect to win, even if you do eventually tear it up.

The blurs are always inconsistent on this show. Like they'll blur breast plates if currently being used in drag but won't if it's sitting on a table. But then sometimes they don't blur it when it's being worn.

My favorite blur was the two whole seasons of Ru's ratty-rear end poorly done hairline

I also forgot to mention that Trinity's tweety-bird jacket thing needs to be in my life

Trinity putting on a yellow bird jacket to lipsync against Manilla was a power move but like they say, if you come at the king you best not miss.

Like I remember thinking in her season "oh man Trinity's a lowkey assassin" but up against Manilla she just looked flat.

So, best lipsync assassin of each season?

S1: Akashia?, Bebe?
S2: Jujubee
S3: Alexis
S4: I think Dida had the single strongest lipsync, but Latrice beats her overall
S5: Alyssa beats out Coco for me
S6: Darienne, maybe the 2nd best all-time
S7: Kennedy
S8: ChiChi
S9: Peppermint, best all-time
S10: Kameron has the best record but the only one I thought was phenomenal was the first against Eureka, likewise Monet had a great first lipsync but a mediocre second one, Vixen maybe?, Asia?, Aquaria? really not sure on this one

Agreed with pretty much all; seasons 3, 6, and 10 are the only ones I'd say are contentious because they all had so many phenomenal lipsyncers. Like, 3 had Alexis, sure, but also Manilla and Delta loving killed it. Darienne was amazing in 6, but Adore killed it in every lipsync and Dela is a terrifying contestant, and that's not even getting into Trinity K motherfuckin' Bonet. Then 10, jesus christ. Kameron, Vixen, Asia, and Aquaria were all outstanding.

Hilariously, even though Kennedy was the 'assassin' of season 7, Pearl of all people won the most lipsyncs

Also Juju is probably second best of all time. She could beat Latrice at soul, she could beat Dela at camp, she literally never lost a lipsync.

Ongina for S1 and Juju for best all time imo.

Juju vs Peppermint needs to happen already so we can settle the debate.

Like gently caress a regular season, just give me Ru Paul Assassins, with like five queens and nobody leaves and everyone's judged exclusively on lipsyncs

Valentina did good. I'm sick of fake fighting being the punchline of poo poo though, it's super lazy.

# ¿ Jan 5, 2019 02:41

Wungus: Mar 5, 2004

There's no way Monique wins this lipsync. She's pretty good, but against Manilla? No way.

That said I don't agree with the bottom two, Latrice sure but I'd honestly put Trinity down there first.

I would've put Valentina actually. She struggled in the challenge, and while I got what she was going for on the runway, it didn't work.

Val was so loving weird though, and I can't fault her for committing to her bit. I honestly got a lot more out of her than Trinity.

# ¿ Jan 5, 2019 03:17

Wungus: Mar 5, 2004

I'm happy with the outcome, but sad she hosed up enough to be in the bottom in the first place
