I noticed a correlation here, and maybe I’m looking too far into it- But listen. In the comics, it’s revealed that Stanley once wanted to become a comic book author, having made what is known as “Lil’ Stanley.” However, as we learn in the comic, his dreams were crushed when his comic was turned away and he gave up on his dream. Now in the present, he sees the comic he once made as a reflection of his own disappointment and shattered dreams- Selling it for 3 bucks on sale. NOW HERES THE THING. In Stanley’s Lowest Moments it’s listed that his dad tried to pawn him off for- How much money? 3 BUCKS. Ima reiterate. Stan sells Lil’ Stanley- The comic that he put his heart and soul into and was seen as unsatisfactory- For 3 bucks. Filbrick Pines tries to pawn Little Stan off as punishment for a bad grade- And by extension his inadequacy- For 3 bucks.
Yeah. This means nothing, but I’m still gonna be sad about it.
You know that moment you connect the dots to something so satisfying you just gotta sit there for a moment?
Anyway— Andrew Garfield (love of my life and Remus Lupin fancast) was in the movie Tick Tick Boom and he played Jonathan Larson (a real life person, who was awesome btw). Anyway, Jonathan Larson was born in 1960, you know who else was born in 1960? Remus. Boom. Full circle.
