Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I love that the blu ray has a special feature of the film, but in chronological order

Whoa really? I vaguely remember hearing about a cut like they but figured it was a fan edit.

ESPRIT DE CORPS [Medium: Success] – If an assault were launched on this building right now -- if the windows came crashing down and the whole world descended upon you -- this man would hurl himself in death's way to save you. You are sure of this -- but why?

Because Kim Kitsuragi is one of the best characters ever written.

Chris Pratt movie, Passengers. Horror alternative version.

That movie would have been a lot better if they switched they switched the perspective.

It also would have been interesting if Pratt died in the end.

Or it just didn't pretend to be a romance at all. I don't know who belongs on a watchlist for greenlighting the script, as producers are well known to override the actual writers, but someone does.

It being a romance in the beginning works well, especially with the reveal.

Continuing the romance through to the end should have been handled a lot differently.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 6 points 7 months ago

The best explanation I've heard for continuing the romance after the reveal is down to marketing.

No one wants to take a date to a romance that turns into a horror, especially when the horror is the guy being a predator, so you either give the twist away in trailers and lose half your draw or try to pretend the creepiness was necessary somehow.

I've been the victim of this before and it is very VERY bad. I learned the hard way never to trust my intuition because apparently I have no intuition.

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 19 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That's why you should trust me instead. Btw, unrelated, what was your name again?

Didn't you hear me say that I've already learned the hard way? I trust absolutely no one anymore. Especially not you 😄

Viletta from Code Geass.

A friend of mine had an amnesic episode after an epileptic seizure. According to him there's nothing trust-inspiring about having a group of strangers you feel no emotional connection to telling you they're your family and they're going to look after you.

hate turns into love

Sorta like when a cheetah catches a baby gazelle, but the baby gazelle doesn't know to run, and the cheetah just stands there licking the baby? https://piped.video/watch?v=WOiTn7dSiKQ
