In light of recent events, I will share my magnum opus again. Forgot to mention Romain’s trash talking because I am heathen but otherwise…I try to do my due diligence https://t.co/IpUxiarmuM
@vmstagemom No I completely get what you’re saying. Marjo is a “win now” move, Zak’s is a “win in 8 years” move. I guess the question is whether it’ll be worth it for the latter
@vmstagemom It’s def a trade up for her but if he’s trading down from ninth…idk man. I’m just skeptical as hell. I think Lajoie/Baker will be more successful and it won’t be close. But I suppose that’s why they compete as they say
@jodiecongirl@WestphalErin Barnum is great cuz it really builds on what they did with Mack and Mabel, imo! M&M was 81-82, Barnum was 82-83. They really doubled down on their vision and were rewarded. Took a little bit for everyone else to get it but B/B’s ‘85 Carmen kinda solidified the vision after T/D
Honestly feel like new fans don’t always get why Torvill/Dean were so revolutionary. Cuz, guys, it wasn’t because of Bolero. It was because of “Mack and Mabel”
Like this was absolutely revolutionary. In all of skating, period. I hate T/D being reduced to Bolero for many reasons (mostly cuz I do not like the program but not the point) because it almost hides their true accomplishment: making FS a means of portraying stories
@vmstagemom That’s completely valid! I think I prefer A/P and U/Z more when watching, but KlimPom’s 3 Olympic medals have gotta edge them both I think 😭
TW: rape, SA. Incredibly brave interview. Cannot imagine how frustrating it must have been to hear about yourself being spoken about the way she has had to. I really hope this interview can bring justice.
