"I'm the prettiest poison you've ever seen / That filter you use looks just like me"

It was mentioned in the nomination topic, but it really is wild that in the song "Meet the Plastics," the film cut out the parts of two of the three plastics. It's goes from being the big introductory villain song of the popular girls to basically a soliloquy. I mean, what's here is great; Renee Rapp is undeniably a great singer and the instrumentals are so aggressive. Ultimately, it just feels incomplete though, more like a reprise than a song in itself. I enjoyed what was there but really wanted more.

We get a pretty basic introduction to Regina here, giving the audience an idea of what to expect. She's attractive, rich, arrogant and mean. More than that, everyone seems to recognize it too. It's hard to call it an evil song, since about the meanest thing she says is "I don't care how you feel." That's not quite enough to move the meter compared to the villains we have here.
