You're Welcome || Heathers Animatic (UK Album)

Go to 0:49 for the new stuff ;) (as I added a tw at the beginning of the video). Note: If anyone makes 'triggered' jokes, they will be blocked.

[@itscutekoala215]

?What’s a triggered joke?

[@carucath97]

@@itscutekoala215 Hard to explain, basically certain people conflate someone being offended (regardless of whether the offence is justified or not) with something to reliving a traumatic event through seeing something that triggers the memory so they find it amusing to say that anything is 'triggering'. This often comes from different experiences - like some people just find 'jokey assault' to be darkly amusing whereas others who have been sexually assaulted will find that it reminds them of that time. So, someone will say that a 'jokey assault' scene triggered them because of that which will annoy someone who found it funny and think that the first person is ruining their fun and so may say that their homework (or something else that's trivial) 'triggered' them. This is why sometimes in comment sections you'll see people say I"M SO TRIGGERED (like you see transphobes say they identify as an attack helicopter), they're making light of a real thing because they don't see it as being a real thing.

CaruCath97 thx 🙂

i like this more than blue. it shows that it is never the victims fault, and it can happen to anyone, any age.

[@Soldier-Down]

But in the context of the show I don't think it really makes sense all that much. In the original context of the musical we're supposed to be rooting against JD since he pretty much gets jealous that these two guys are flirting with his girl and he thinks the only solution is murder. With this song, it justifies JD and makes him more like a hero. Not only that but Veronica feels bad for murdering Kurt and Ram because she believed they could still turn out good. With this song in the musical, Veronica's guilt seems more forced than with Blue because in Blue there too drunk and dumb to be good people, in this song they're completely sober and fully aware of their actions, they simply don't care.

[@Soldier-Down]

@@ML0694 But JD was a psychopath kind of bad, Ram and Kurt are the Jock kind of bad which while that archetype certainly paints them as villains, it certainly makes them more deserving of like a beat down, but most certainly not death.

[@shardes]

I find "You're welcome" better in general (same reasoning as you), but "Blue" seems to be more fitting in the context of Heathers.

[@xX_ewwwewwie_Xx]

Yes

[@haileybrennan6195]

Agreed. I think blue is meant to be a bit ambiguous. The way JD reacts could seem justified from Veronica's point of view. She probably did see it as an attempted assault drunk or not. But all JD saw was something making a pass at her. In our love is god. Initially, Veronica thinks he's doing this for her until reality hits. Shes still kinda on JDs side after their deaths because she thinks he was defending her. The audience though is probably noticing the redflags at this point though. If Kurt and Ram are shown as completely irredeemable, then the build-up to JD trying to blow up the school dosn’t hit the same. Yes, it creates more of a suprise, but Veronica's has to realize JD is bad for her slowly for it to make sense with their characters. It also makes the point of 'people don't deserve to die' that Veronica comes to make more sense because Kurt and Ram were two drunk stupid teenage boys, not axe murderers. If you have them do this is completely negates that conclusion because that intentional act is beyond redeemable for anyone.

[@wriggleby]

This makes more sense contextually than blue, they aren't just silly drunk kids they're genuinely a threat. They still don't deserve to die obviously, but there's more of a reason for JD to want to kill them.

[@albamg7761]

that's exactly WHY it doesn't make sense. We're supposed to be rooting against JD. Veronica is supposed to have a reason to be horrified at his killings of redeemable and relatively harmless people. This song would make the musical fall apart contextually

[@NikuArashi08721]

@@albamg7761 But in this moment, they aren't harmless. In neither of the songs. Even if Blue make it seems like a joke, the situation both songs portrai is genuial creepy and dangerous.

[@shardes]

@@albamg7761 Actually the audience is supposed to feel conflicted about the situation.

[@justateapot3847]

@@NikuArashi08721 except that in Blue, Kurt and Ram were easy to brush off due to using alcohol. They were presented as drunk idiots who weren’t in the right, but they definitely didn’t have malicious intent in their drunk state. In this, they genuinely become irredeemable because they KNOW what they’re doing and are just more dangerous. It makes the audience root more for JD and completely fucks up the message. I enjoy the song, but it doesn’t work in the context of the musical.

Unpopular oppinion - this song is better. And it is EXACTLY because it has the Heathers vibes. But not of the musical, of the original movie.

Well... "Blue" has wonderful voices, but it's kinda NOT FIT this situation. And THIS is a really good text, for all characters.

[@ava_121]

I like this more then Blue, because while blue is funnier, it always makes me feel weird to have something like this be taken so lightly. I like that your welcome shows just how messed up it was. And Veronica saying your welcome for dumping them in cow poop is awesome

[@ragglerock2682]

Kurt and Ram are way worse in this than blue. At least in blue, they were honest about how desperate they were, in this they act like Veronica is the one who's begging to be with them, and how it's an honor to be with them.

[@umaru-channavidena2059]

In the movie is worst because one of them rape mc namara and veronica dont do nothing to stop that

[@demonheart13]

The same thought as most rapists yes, I'm pretty sure that's what literally calling the song "Your Welcome" implies. That they believe she is supposed to thank them for their harassment, also the same thoughts as many nice guys and other misogynistic ideology.

[@travishimebaugh8381]

And this is still less dark than the original movie, where McNamara basically gets molested as a background gag while Veronica stalks off looking pissy (our hero, folks)

[@carucath97]

Haven't seen the original film, part of me wants to (partly because Winona Ryder plays Veronica) but I've heard mixed things about it.

[@travishimebaugh8381]

@@carucath97 I personally love it but I think a lot of modern viewers wouldn't. It's mostly the same, but Veronica is much less likable (at least until the end) and JD isn't quite as sympathetic (because Christian Slater never really drops this smug creepy Jack Nicholson thing he's doing).

[@jamieturner4682]

Exactly! And people haven’t seen the movie they’re just going off the OG musicial

[@jamieturner4682]

@@carucath97 Watch it - you’ll see how close this song is to the movie than the OG musical

[@completebuffoonery]

I don’t think Veronica in the movie was meant to be seen as a hero, she always let horrible things happen and slowly realizes how wrong she was when shit started hitting the fan. She makes slight protests like with the Martha situation but she lets it happen, she leaves Heather at the college party where she could and mostly likely would be taken advantage of, she defends JD pulling out a gun in school, she kills one of the two jocks instead of JD doing both which leads to Martha trying to kill herself. It was only then when she saw that she fucked up. It’s a lesson of stop being horrible or someone may hurt themselves and you can never take it back.

[@CelestialBunnyPaws]

Fantastic animatic. 👌🏼 I love this song, I really do. Blue made Kurt and Ram seem like dumb kids, but this really shows how malicious their intent was. Obviously they didn't deserve to be killed, but you can really see why J.D flipped. Just the implication is enough, he didn't need to know the details. That line gets me every time; 'Hey, you wanted to be popular.' Like, this is your punishment for trying to get a better life for yourself. The price you have to pay for avoiding bullying. It shows their intelligence. They know that she wouldn't be on the accepted list if not for the Heathers and therefore use it against her. Wonderfully done and the animatic just makes it hit even harder. ✨

[@MissMayumiSan]

How this scene turned from funny and clever to creepy and rapey? VIVA LA BLUE

[@carucath97]

It always was creepy and rapey... just that Blue played it for laughs and made them seem not very threatening even though they were going to do the same thing in both songs

[@ihonestlydontknow74]

It's was always rapey they were actually kinda rapey in blue but in your welcome it's more creepier I like the music and I got my friend obsessed with it somehow😩but your welcome and blue was always creepy but it sounded like it was just a average song which is funny but in blue they were drunk freshman

this is also in the heathers high school version . it might be less comedic but it’s better then singing about well , balls

[@perilsofrosella]

Agreed, the animator is better than the song.

[@kaitlinomalley5677]

Although I understand why they changed it to show the gravity of the scene I can't help but feel that the artistry of the song doesn't measure up or fit stylistically with the others in the play. I also think that the heathers leaving instead of staying and locking her out of the car was a poor choice. When they stayed it felt much more cruel (fitting for the Heathers) but when they leave they have a reason for the cruelty.

[@lunadestiny1238]

A reminder from Anne of green gables “A skirt is NOT an invitation.”

[@meridaskywalker7816]

*from Anne with an E. There was no such scene in the book. Which is no surprise, because I don't think boys at that time would dare to act that way, it would be considered super improper. The girls wouldn't just say 'Boys will be boys' and giggle, they would be shocked, tell their parents about it and the boys would be in some serious trouble.

[@entr3_nou5]

I don’t like how the comments here are saying they like this song better because it “makes JD more justified.” ...people. He’s CRAZY. We aren’t supposed to support his actions! The whole point of Blue was to show that Kurt and Ram are creepy assholes but never do anything so genuinely terrible that you wanna give em the death sentence

[@thechaotickiz760]

I think it gave jd more of a reason to kill them because they are more threatening in this

[@rockamillion2002]

@@thechaotickiz760 That’s exactly why it doesn’t work. The whole point is that JD is killing people who don’t deserve to die. But, this song portrays Ram and Kurt as irredeemable monsters who kind of had it coming. You’re not supposed to want them dead, you’re supposed to feel like JD has gone too far when he kills them. That’s why Blue works much better in the story even if you prefer this song. In summary, none of JD’s murders should be justified but this song justifies him murdering Ram and Kurt and it messes up the story a little.

y’all, both Blue and You’re welcome are about the same thing, s3xual a$$ault. Blue takes a more comedic approach but they are about the same thing. it’s kinda like comparing apples to oranges in my opinion

Opinion: both blue and you’re welcome are good songs but blue is funnier and seems as if they are begging her to hook up while you’re welcome is a very dark song about SA and is as they are forcing themselves onto Veronica both SLAP tho

I will admit that you’re welcome has a better message about how anyone could make the vitamin of sexual assault or rape that it’s their fault but blue is such a comedic song and you’re welcome just gives more of a serious vibe. If I’m completely honest this musical and story is already so serious so I’d like to laugh about how dumb of a song blue is.
