As an artist I feel morally obligated to assign newsies characters art equipment
(ALL OF THESE HAVE THOUGHT THROUGH REASONINGS)
Davey: oil paint or aquarell
Jack: Charcoal (to be exact Charcoal pencils)
Crutchie: pastel chalk
Race: digital art
Spot (specifically 1992 spot): oil pastel
Sarah: colored pencils
Our man Denton: lead pencil
Blink: Gouache
Mush: Acrylic
Boots: finger paint
Bumlets: those sand art thingys
Specs: graphic design
Skittery: ink art
Les: crayon
Delancys: AI Art

Thank you for coming to my ted talk
you guys are gonna be deceased once i finally get the motivation to edit 92sies javid to fake plastic trees
Every time Davey doesn’t wear glasses in a modern AU an Angel loses it’s Wings
This has to be my favorite thing. EVER.
Snitch and Neville Longbottom look like long lost brothers and I am going to stand by it
You can’t tell me that modern day au’s of both fandoms compare the two to the movie counterparts. Specs saying Snitch looks like Neville and like George or Fred saying Neville looks like Snitch. Obviously in modern day au’s the two fandoms would be movies in the other universe.
I definitely agree that movie, Broadway and novel have a lot of historical inaccuracy, but they represent the Main Events of the Strike and it’s process pretty good (except the importance of Hearst in the Strike???)
The movie had a lot of characters that actually existed back then and I’m pretty sad that Most of them didn‘t make it to Broadway. ):
Obviously the modern Adaptations have flaws, for example the Price „suddenly“ rising, Spot being the King of Brooklyn instead of Race, the Strike starting in Manhattan or Katherine being alive during this strike, but the Happenings which were important in the Strike, like the Rally at Irving Hall or their leader being a scab (Kid Blink and David Simmons alledgy turned scab) were shown in them!
Jack Kelly didn‘t exist, but I’m pretty sure he‘s based on a bunch of people that actually existed. His role in the Strike and personality were both based on Kid Blink and Annie Kelly (hence the last name Kelly). His Story resembles a lot of things that happend in Kid Blink‘s Life aswell, for example turning scab (it’s not clear if Blink actually did it but Most newsies believed it) or going to prison (in Jack‘s case Refuge) other than Jack, Blink had a mom that bailed him out tho. The last Name Sullivan COULD be a reference to Timothy D. Sullivan (the Businessman that rented the Irving hall for the newsies) and the name „Jack“ COULD be inspired by the newsie „Jack the rare“ but the last two are just assumptions
(I forced my english teacher to let me write an Essay about this, because none of my friends wanted to hear it and it shows)
“We're doing something no one's even tried”
LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER
The way they spell “Davey” in the novel is horrendous
Happy late St. Patrick’s Day to my favorite Irish Cowboy Jack Kelly
We all know David Jacobs, Nick Carraway, Remus Lupin and Edwin Payne would be besties
The Javey fixation hits so hard that even German millennial songs remind me of them
I am VERY sorry for the person that just sat behind me in class while I read a Javey Major character death fanfiction
He is the gayest gay to ever gay (and he’s awful at hiding it)
(if you want to, you can explain your answer in reblogs/replies!!)
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE ANTONIO HIGGINS!!! EN GARDE!!!
🤺🤺🤺
BRING IT ON!!!!!!! IVE HAD MORE SHINERS THAN YOU’VE GOT FINGERS!!!
🤺🤺
Davey Jacobs would post this if he had social media prove me wrong
WE STARTED A STRIKE??? [GONE WRONG.] [GONE GAY?]
If it’s cannon era then 92sies, if not, then livesies. Kind of. There is some that change but mostly that.
Who do y'all picture when reading newsies fanfiction. Cause I can't imagine reading a sprace fic and picturing like Ben Cook with Gabriel Damon or a javey fic with Christian Bale and Ryan Kopel. Does it change depending on the pairing? Or like platonic vs romantic, does that affect who you think of?
Please tell me I am genuinely really curious
So Newsies. I just got back into it and rewatched livsies and 92sies. I still prefer livsies because the music and dancing is way better tho that is the perk of a musical. I do like 92sies tho, I like how Brooklyn comes in earlier and I also like some smaller moments and things. I prefer Kathrine to Sarah, because Sarah was kinda just there and the closest Jack could get to Davey in a movie made in a heteronormative society. I also like crutchie and les better in the musical, as in the movie they were just kinda there or really dumb. Though I like the musical Santa Fe better I crack up during 92sies Santa Fe because Jack just straight up steals a horse. Like what. Who thought of that???? I like in the movie how we see the newsies passing out the Newsies Banner, but I prefer livsies Once and For All. I also like over all I prefer the musical, but I will admit that the movie has some things I do like better and isn’t bad. Anyway no hate to people who like 92sies better, it is good, but I personally don’t think it is as good as the musical. Though the Javey and Sprace content is good.
I am crying now. This is so sad. Try again Spot, it’ll work next time. Race is head over heels for you!
Spot: hey so I was wondering-
Race watching Jojo and Albert doing something stupid
Spot: um if you maybe
Race: STOP
Race: I’m sorry I have to go stop my friends I’ll see you later
Spot standing alone: I wanted to know if you wanted to go out on a date with me
Spot: yeah that was worth practicing for three hours in the mirror
5 new crushes I’ve gotten cuz of Newsies. Their not really crushes, per-se, just like, damn, they’re fine (who am I kidding, Kara Lindsay as Katharine is *sigh* and Ben Tyler Cook as Race is also *sigh*)
Just watched 92sies. Definitely prefer livesies, by far. But I will say, livesies completely ruined Spot. Can I ship 92sies Spot and livesies Race? Is that aloud? Cuz Ben Tyler Cook is the best Race. I didn’t like how in 92sies Crutchie and Jack weren’t even really friends, let alone brothers. Also Jack, like, didn’t care about the other newsies at all, he was only acting in his own self interest. And, you know, as a theater kid I’m definitely bias towards stage productions. (If you like 92sies better, that’s completely okay, your opinions are valid. If you hate it with all your being, your opinions are also valid.) I, personally, like livesies music, dancing, story, and everything (-Spot and the Javey iconic-gay-pin-against-wall scene) better.
