LET"S GO CLOWNGATE

🚨Calling all Phantoms!!!!🚨As we all know September 10th marks the four year anniversary of Julie And The Phantoms coming out. To show Netflix even more how much we truly love and want JATP back we all collectively watch JATP on September 10th. Also we should app come together and comment under Netflix's post #renewjatp!!!! I know that we all love and miss JATP. We know that Kenny and the rest of the cast and crew miss JATP as well. Let's make some noise and make out voices heard. We CAN'T give up or loose hope. Julie And The Phantoms deserves a second season a couple of movies to give us the closure that we deserve. 🚨Make sure to spread this post around!!!🚨

seeing a lot of people posting about julie and the phantoms and i'm so happy that a show that came from brazil (which i loved when i was kid and i never get over it get cancelei) is getting that much love and that one of the most incredible musical makers decided to take it

and the fact that the cast interacts with the brazilian cast on instagram omg they are everything

I sent this to my friend and we came up with: imagine Flynn and Julie go to the game and see Carrie and some of the dirty candi girls an are expecting drama but then they see ghost powers on the field and all of them kinda just go wait a second and that’s how they end up taking Carrie back to the garage and introducing her to the boys to get her help figuring something out with Caleb/nick cause she and nick used to date and she and Julie used to be friends so maybe she would have an idea for what to do

Am i the only one who wants to see a lacrosse game in season 2? Like imagine CalebNick trying to play and he starts using his ghosty powers to try and win?? Like that would be really freaking cool

Ok I kinda want to write this now is that ok? I don’t know anything about lacrosse though.....

I’d credit you for the original idea.

Ok so I’m watching finally free for the bajillionth time and this has probably been said but I had a thought: what if Luke wrote Finally Free to help show his support for Alex after he came out to his parents. Ignoring all of the other boys possible sexualities, let’s see what we know.

Long post btw.

1. We know that Luke wrote it before he died because it was in his journal.

2. We know that Alex came out to his parents and it didn’t go well. With his anxiety on top of the stress of coming out and being met with rejection, this would have been a really hard time for him.

3. Luke connects with people and conveys emotion through music and that music has connected the boys from the very beginning.

4. The boys support Alex and his sexuality very much!

Going almost line by line:

“Hearts on fire /We're no liars/So we say what we wanna say/I'm awakened/No more faking/So we push all our fears away”

This is like how Alex couldn’t hide who he was from his parents any longer and told them, even though it must have made his anxiety go through the roof. Also “I’m awakened” refers to a sexual awakening and Alex realizing that he was gay. He couldn’t lie to his parents, so he faced his fears and told them. Luke is congratulating him, even though it didn’t turn out well.

“And you're a part of me/Hands up if you're with me/Now 'til eternity/Hands up if you believe/Been so long, and now we're finally free”

This part is Luke talking to Alex saying that even though things aren’t great, it’s ok. You have us and we’re gonna be with you no matter what. Screw your parents. You’re finally free of them. This is also the vibe I get from Luke in the scene before This Band is Back where they’re talking about what happened to Bobby and their families.

“We're all bright now/What a sight now/Coming out like we're fireworks/Marching on proud/Turn it up loud/'Cause now we know what we're worth”

This one is a bit more self explanatory. It literally says coming out like we’re fireworks, which are very colorful and rainbowy. Next it says marching on proud as a reference to pride. “Turn it up loud” because Alex refuses to hide anymore. Finally “cause now we know what we’re worth” says “Hey Alex. You’re awesome and even if your parents don’t see that, you are and you’re worth so much more than they know.”

Here’s the first chapter!

Carlos comes in the next morning because Julie didn’t come into his room the night before and the boys are trying to shush him so he doesn’t wake Julie up but he can’t see them so she ends up waking up to Carlos screaming excitedly because in the morning light he can see that Julie is FLOATING (laying on the boys, but only part of her is actually touching a physical surface that Carlos can see) on the COUCH

How long do you think Julie stayed in the garage after the group hug? They way they’re like “We’ll give you this, and you can let your imagination run wild with what happened after.” Part of me feels like she couldn’t just leave after that hug.

Wait no stop-

All of them giving her individual hugs after like I-

I just posted chapter 3. I hope you guys like it!!

Here’s the first chapter!

I wrote a song for Carrie for my fic Friends on the Other Side (it’s in ao3 my username is Cuddly Starfish btw fifth chapter is up) and it’s like past midnight but I’m calling it Better. Imagine Carrie singing a ballad like song to Julie to apologize for what happened between them (which I have had in the fic as her stealing one of Julies songs when they were younger because we love to see Julie parallel her boys) and she’s playing an acoustic guitar

Better (Carrie Wilson):

I knew you were better but I had to be best

I held myself proudly and stuck out my chest

I know that I hurt you, please know I’m aware

And I’m sorry

I know that I hurt you

I know I was wrong

I know that you moved on;

I watched you stay strong

I know that I hurt you

So I’m singing this song

To try and tell you that

I know that I hurt you but I’m trying my best

I’ll try to be better, to pass all the tests

And I’ll say this prayer

To show you I care

I can’t ask for forgiveness

but just know that I’m there

Until you can hug me and see me and love me and know me and trust me again

I know that I hurt you

I know you’ll need time

I know that I messed up

The song wasn’t mine

And I’m probably too late

But at least the words rhyme

Or I tried to

I knew better

I’ll do better

I’ll be better

If you’ll let me try

Watch for this in future chapters of Friends on the Other Side 👀👀

Can someone please tell me where I can get a ripped black jeans jacket like Alex?

Nothing could have prepared me for the whiplash I got when I first read the jatp novelization and found out that Alex never actually bought any pink shirts or hoodies, he just accidentally had a red sock in his white laundry, turned everything pink and decided to just roll with it.

I am once again wondering what the fuck was in those fucking hot dogs that killed them so damn fast. I mean, in the novelization it says that they were dead before the ambulance even arrived on scene.

Like, even if it would've been "just" food poisoning by really bad meat, it should have taken at least a few hours before they died of it.

Or do the ambulances in LA just take that long to arrive on the scene?

Someone who is better with words than me needs to write a fanfiction about the boys, especially Alex, finding out about Lil Nas X

I'm begging you

When Luke says “my couch” thats probably where he stayed aster he ran from home

JULIE AND THE PHANTOMS | 1.01 - Wake Up

So I cant find the post that initially got me thinking about this, but on the topic of Julie making Luke a better writer:

We see 2 Sunset Curve songs that Luke wrote pre-Julie. Now or Never and Bright. He edited Bright a little before he gave it to her, and we only hear it in full when she's performing it, but I think the core of it was basically unchanged. Now or Never and Bright are both good songs, they're fun to listen to and they're technically well done (by which I mean that the technical aspects are all well-executed). But they're also..... kinda generic?

Like not in a bad way necessarily, but the theme of both is kinda that "Life is awesome"/"I'm awesome"/"Don't underestimate me" teenagerness that's kinda default in a way -- music I wrote in my tween/teen years had the same vibes. And I kinda think that you end up with that vibe when you're feeling a lot but you don't really know how to express it in a way that will connect with other people. We know Luke was feeling a lot because we also see Unsaid Emily, which he wrote pre-Julie but notably not for Sunset Curve to perform. Unsaid Emily is for himself and his mom. Given the time to think about it, he knows what he wants to say and knows how to say it in his song. And Unsaid Emily turns out great, in that gutting, punch-to-the-heart way.

Basically, Luke pre-Julie had the potential to write great, emotional songs, but he shied away from writing those songs with the intention of performing them. For performances, he focused on less heavy themes with a broader, more general appeal, and on hyping up audiences and encouraging people. (btw we see echoes of this a bit too in the scene on the beach where the boys end up playing This Band Is Back -- Luke's trying to cheer them up, focus less on what they lost and more on what they still have as opposed to processing their grief because then there would be Emotions and our boy does not know what to do with sad people.)

Julie-and-Luke songs are a whole different breed to Luke's pre-Julie music. There are a lot of similarities, what with Luke, Reggie, and Alex's involvement, particularly in the level of energy. They're not writing slow ballads or swingy showtunes. It's still the same style of music, but the big difference to me is the amount of emotion and emotional nuance in Julie-era music.

Finally Free is also about breaking out of the mold -- but it's triumphant and celebratory and inwardly-focused where Bright was defiant, more about making your own mark than about being true to yourself.

Edge of Great is also about envisioning the road ahead -- but it's hopeful and about the faith and wonder at the future where Now or Never is an insistence that life isn't gonna stop you from doing what you want.

Pre-Julie, Luke's songs are pushing back against an undefined opposing force (and like, his parents on some level) but he doesn't really put any of his own feelings into them. He's angry, and the anger is where he's drawing from but it doesn't actually inspire him.

But with Julie? Julie's songs dig deeper into her feelings, and I think she writes them for herself more than for others (esp. compared to Luke's pre-Julie music). She doesn't shy away from grief or fear (Flying Solo, Stand Tall) but she always turns it around by the end of the song, makes the song about growth rather than about the sucky parts of life. Flying Solo is inspired by her fear of losing Flynn, but the song itself is an ode to friendship. Stand Tall has a definite basis in how Julie thought she wasn't going to be able to make music without her mom, but it reaches everybody else because it's ultimately about overcoming obstacles and loss.

(and not to make this too sappy, but julie's the reason that luke can connect with people in the end -- not because she makes him visible but because she shows him how to actually use his emotions in his music. luke helps julie get back on her feet after her mom's death, and julie convinces luke to wear his heart on his sleeve instead of trying to hide it every time it falls out of his pocket)

This 100% this. I feel like this is why Carrie is always upset when it comes to julie. Its like a kind of jealousy cause she can see the raw natural talent. She knows julie can go somewhere on her own. And maybe she feels the need to live up to her (they were friends and maybe she felt like she wasn't good enough to be) so I'm wondering if she is just like her father in the sense that she doesn't think she can go anywhere with music on her own. He dad is already famous so she doesn't necessarily have to work much to get where she wants to go. But she still puts in extra effort to learn entire dance routines. I don't know where I'm going with this anymore but, I wanna see Carrie become her friend again because to me she looks so proud of julie at the end of the show. Almost like all the jealousy she felt washes away when she sees her old friend thriving.

I'm done rambling now but I love Carrie and wanna see her come back from mean girl and become the old bestfriend she once was

There's just something so utterly charming about Julie. She'll walk into a room and effortlessly catch everyone's eyes yet she's so grounded that you'll never be uncomfortable around her. People talk about her like she is this infectious warmth, they can't stop talking about her brimming talent. I mean Luke pretty much fanboys about her, Reggie thinks she is this angelic entity, Alex gets starry-eyed about how amazing she is. Flynn does everything to encourage Julie to pursue music again because she has too much talent not to. So does Ray to the point where he looks for schools outside the country and allows a house party to encourage her music. She makes people around her feel like their interests mean something. She writes songs with Luke, she could "learn how to fiddle" for Reggie and she makes an effort to interact with Alex on stage. She tells Flynn she loves her in every way possible "if somebody hurts you, I'm gonna get hurt too." She doesn't make one snide comment about Carlos' ghost hunting endeavor, she tells her dad he takes beautiful photographs. This woman is just...she is just sensational.
