Groovy threads Ronnie!




I found this link to some questions that Cole Sprouse and Camila Mendes answered about the show if anyone's interested, I was surprised at what Cole says about the show taking cues from those Jughead detective stories in the digests.

Wasn't Jughead usually working for a hot girl in those stories?


Again with the Twin Peaks.  :P

I don't want to spam the Jughead thread with Jughead/Veronica dates so I'll just spam this thread instead. I have plenty of examples.  ;D

Hmmm....not sure how I feel about Camila Mendes saying it's hard for Veronica to be good.

So your take on Veronica is that it's easy for her to be good, it's just that there's no fun in it for her so why bother?

QuoteBoth actors admit to having not read the Archie Comics before being cast, but have since pored through them to be sure to get their characters right.

Good thing that Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa was careful to provide the actors only with Archie comics that he'd written himself!  ;)

"To be sure to get their characters right"  Ha! That's laughable  ::)


"admit to having not read the Archie Comics before being cast" Okay, this answers the question I had and had asked in the other Riverdale thread. I just knew none of them had read AC before.

Neither. I wasn't sure about Camila Mendes' quote, like if Veronica has ulterior motives or something and since they're using Twin Peaks as an example, I was wondering if she was going to end up like Josie Packard.

My take with Veronica is that she's immature and spoiled so she doesn't always do the right thing but it doesn't come from a place of malice, just that she's selfishly driven and she will make amends when she knows she's done something wrong. Most of the time her selfishness isn't that harmful for people around her, just annoying. I wouldn't say it's easy or hard for her to be good because most of acknowledge she has a good heart but as I said, she also has a selfish streak.

It wouldn't help anyway since Riverdale is so drastically different from classic Archie.

Let's just say it's the sort of thing that's rarely directly addressed...
But when it is -- Oh, brother! Look out!!

It's not "Archie"... It's STEALING (Archie) from Betty!


She just can't help it. It's like a medical condition -- she deserves sympathy and understanding...
She sure does seem to be enjoying herself, though.

Exactly the story I was thinking of when I typed my spiel.

Here's some gruesome AU Jughead/Veronica stuff. Minimized for gore, click to enlarge.

What Veronica says about Betty having Archie all to herself was the one thing in the series that made me laugh.




Sort of off topic but here's a link to the Riverdale cast's answers to who their first celebrity crush was, Ill just put it here because Camila and Cole gave the best answers and I have nothing else right now.  :)   http://betty-and-jughead.tumblr.com/post/145009279992/riverdale-cast-reveals-their-first-celebrity


Sorry it's on the Betty and Jughead shipping tumblr, that's who posted it.  ::)

The joke is on Veronica since she didn't need to die for Betty to have Archie all to herself in AWA.  :D I love Veronica but sometimes she needs to be taken down a peg or two.

No worries! I think everyone here is supportive of whatever pairing anyone wants to ship.  ;)

Cole's answer was cute, but I agree with Lili Reinhart, my first celebrity crush was Leo too.

Continuing on my theme of Jughead and Veronica ending up as each other's dates...

Okay not exactly a date...


but she did call Jughead over instead of anyone else and she cooked it all herself!

I'm more about Rachel Bilson but Leo's probably been the first crush for more people than any other celebrity.

Just take away Jughead's word balloon and you have Jughead and Veronica: The Married Life!  :)


Hot Dog eating with a fork, this is the most human I ever saw him in a standard Archie universe story.

I don't know why this ship isn't considered canon.  ;)

I think Veronica just meant to invite Hot Dog and Jughead tagged along. After all, he does have impeccable table manners, better than Jughead. He's slicing his pancakes before he eats them while Jughead is just stuffing them in his mouth one at a time.

Well, there's no "ship" going on here -- and in order to be considered legal, marriages (except for the ones required by ancient Inca rituals for human sacrifice) have to be entered into by the two people of their own free will.


The only relationship here is that they're mutual co-prisoners who can't stand each other. But it does look as though Mr. Lodge and Betty are next in line to see the Incan Justice of the Peace.

You honestly can't say who else she called, because it doesn't show that part. Maybe Veronica just invited Hot Dog over to dispose of the uneaten food, and Jughead invited himself along. Jughead and Hot Dog were the only ones brave and/or hungry enough to show up, anyway. Even Archie won't eat Veronica's cooking if there's any way for him to get out of it... but Jughead isn't known as the human garbage disposal of Riverdale for nothing. Nobody makes a big deal about it when he goes to Ethel's house to eat her cooking, but unlike Ethel, Veronica really doesn't seem too happy to have him there. "Just shut up and eat!"
