That's bollocks, their first album was 2000
Edit: just checked, actually their first album was 1999. Although what they have to do with 50 shades of grey...
As we all know, once you begin creating things you can never again receive inspiration.
Don't you dare come for Muse while I'm hyped for a new single coming soon 😭
How tf is this "coming for Muse"? lol. People are inspired by random things all the time, them making things you don't like because of it is not besmirching what inspired them.
Entirely joking and half hoping to find people who were also hyped for new music, sorry if that didn't come across. Missing the r/muse subreddit but I can't go back to that site. The connection to Twilight/50 Shades doesn't bother me, I don't even mind Neutron Star Collision and that's explicitly for Twilight lol.
Another random 9/11 fact: Seth MacFarlane, the creator of Family Guy was supposed to be on American Airlines flight 11 but accidentally fell asleep in the terminal and then woke up to the terrible news that it had crashed into the World Trade Center.
So wait, who am I supposed to boycott? I need a more specific meme to guide my moral compass. What companies are owned by the one that owns the grocery chain Gerard Way shops at?
boycott 9/11
that's what chaos theory is, a big event left a massive splash.
you could probably trace anything that happend after 9/11 to 9/11
I knew there was a reason behind my morning wood.
One of the darkest moments of 9/11 is when Mark Whalberg missed his flight
They left him on Mars?!
Are there more of these? Wild thesisses with no regard to causation/correlation to some extend. Like this seems entirely believeable
We are living in the Dark Harambe timeline too
Kill two birds with one stone
You missed on the occasion to say "two towers with one plane"
so you are the guy throwing stones at bird.
get him boys
"Feed two birds with one seed."
Happy? Now we slowly starve them to death instead.
fine throws seeds at your car
Crazy to think 9/11 and Twilight were only 4 years apart.
sir, a second twilight has hit the shelves
I mean there's Remember Me
Nah, as long as omegaverse is a thing, I think we get someone making even more awful verson for the straights.
don't worry, it's a matter of time until the straight omega verse fan fiction gets is open gay fan fiction again
Honestly, even just preventing MCR is a win in my book. Add on preventing Twilight and we're doing great, THEN preventing 50 Shades of Grey? They need to get to work on that time machine right away!
MCR couldn't have inspired Stephanie to make her weird pedophilic Mormon dogshit. Don't blame Gerard Way for this.
What the fuck are you talking about?
Do you blame Scorsese for John Hinckley?
"Inspired by", does mean the inspiration is to blame for the outcome.
Scorsese
He knew what he was doing
There's nothing relating to MCR that's even remotely similar to this. Only potential thing is "kind of dark aesthetic". As such, we should forget Twilight ever existed, and especially never mention it in relation to My Chemical Romance and/or Gerard Way.
never mention it in relation to My Chemical Romance
But "Vampire Money" is an absolute banger written specifically to make fun of all the other bands lining up to be on Twilight soundtracks while MCR turned down offers multiple times.
THAT'S WHAT THAT MEANSSSSS OHHHHHHHH That's kinda hilarious lmao
If you want more of this energy from MCR check out what they did for the When We Were Young festival in 2022. Merch, old age makeup, and an encore consisting of "Vampires Will Never Hurt You" followed by "Vampire Money."
I don't really disagree with you, and think she's off in her assement, but she has brought them up in relation to the writing:
This band is so in touch for me with Jacob's character. This really raw, uncontrolled emotion — where it's not about some person who's grown up and callused over and learned how to control things. It's someone who's feeling it for the first time and just wants to go out and blow things up. The song 'Famous Last Words' is a really romantic version of Jacob saying, 'Okay, I'm putting myself out there, and you're probably going to break me, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm still going to make the offer.
-Stephenie Meyer
I wouldn't describe anything about the band as uncontrolled. None of the main members have done anything too crazy. Except for the one guy, but he was just a drummer for a few years. No sex trafficking, rape, cancellations, none of that. I think she's tripping, but anyways lol
She asked them to make a song for one of the movies. They denied, because of the pedophile thing. She shouldn't be associated with them in any capacity.
