no spoilers but on the ride home from the movies, i was telling my bf my thoughts on the story + how well it was & wasn't told, ultimately concluding "hey isn't it so cool that something like this, unpolished and raw, can become so massively beloved and successful?"
[TADC Spoiler]
it feels like Jax is what Gooseworx's fear looks like, someone that's stuck and can't grow up from their trauma.
his mom's confrontation can be interpreted as a failed coming out story... it leaves a big scar especially when it's from someone you deeply love.
Hey guys, Kevin, CEO of GLITCH here. Been trying to figure out when and how to express this, but now I think is the right time:
To the fans - Thank you, deeply. You are the reason we got here. I know it can get noisy online sometimes, but the real-world reality is that you are some of the most genuine, kind people we have ever had the privilege of meeting. We saw every cosplay, every discussion circle, every sticker shared outside the theatres. That is what this is all about.
To every person at/with GLITCH - I never doubted you for a single second. You are all so incredibly talented, and I am so proud that the impact of your work is now being felt on a world stage.
To the industry - Animation and cinema is art. Art is human expression. Digital Circus was a deeply personal story created to express complex feelings. Please let that be the signal you take from all of this.
To everyone - Keep making things and keep sharing your work. We found all our creators through the internet.
Now, here’s Pomni with her signature dance move.
no matter happens tadc will always be a lightning in a bottle. im really happy something so unconventional became so popular and beloved zzzz goodnjght
We know it's been a lot online recently, but we’re still SO excited to show all of you this finale the way it was intended. Digital Circus has been an incredible 3-year journey, and the theatrical release is a celebration and a chance for everyone to watch, laugh, cry, and experience the ending together.
To our artists and staff who made the finale possible, you all created something TRULY beautiful, and we’re all so incredibly proud of you.
Digital Circus: The Last Act comes to theatres in 1 WEEK!! Here’s the gang snowboarding to celebrate
The cycle
thing becomes popular -> thing becomes loved -> thing becomes too popular -> thing is now cringe and dogshit -> the annoying people leave once the hype dies down -> "thing was always so good"
maybe he thinks he's teaching her a lesson, toughening her up? or trying to reclaim power over what happened to him in the past by BEING the bully? When he asks if she could ever be happy maybe he's asking if he could've been happy without his shields and masks like she's able to
anyone else realise Jax's evil version that makes him so uncomfortable is a lot like Gangle and that might be why he targets her? She's kind, shy, and openly displays her emotions all traits that he believes make you a target, vulnerable, and someone who can easily be hurt
