- On Childhood Loneliness

Will fully confess that I didn’t think of any of them as their character names the whole time. They were Veronica, Robin, Buffy, Pope, Ethan, Jessica, and the girl from the Deja Vu music video. And a great cameo from Sansa Stark herself. The casting for this movie tapped every major teen show, told them all to serve cunt, and they did. So hard

do revenge honestly felt like a multiversal experience i was like veronica lodge?? skylar storm?? pope heyward ?? robin buckley?? ethan?? sansa stark?? DAPHNE FROM SCOOBY DOO??

No series can ever top Eragon in the department of being unintentionally funny for two (2) reasons

There is a character who is canonically a furry and everyone just accepts it

There is a scene where one character pops into another characters mind (telepathy is a big part of the books) while they are balls deep in their wife

Now that watching Pedro Pascal be a reluctant dad to a magical child on HBO every Sunday is over, it’s time to watch Pedro Pascal be a reluctant dad to a magical child on Disney Plus every Wednesday.

Crush (2022) was a legitimately sweet and wholesome movie that made me smile and laugh all the way through, but my overanalyzing brain took another message from it.

In the beginning and throughout the movie, Paige’s crush on Gabby is shown as a fantasy, there is an almost fan fiction like quality to it, but every interaction she has with her is awkward, even after she gets to know her, and the kiss itself is awkward and uncomfortable for both of them. It is so much better in Paige’s head than it was in real life.

But look at her relationship with AJ. How genuine it was from the start. How AJ readily accepted her random animal facts, how she helped her with her art, how she immediately went along with Good Cop Bad Cop at the party, their training together. Paige genuinely seemed to relax more and be herself more around AJ because she didn’t feel the pressure to be perfect, and it paid off. When they kissed, Paige acknowledged how much better it felt, more natural

My takeaway here is that living in your head about someone might bring more harm than good. They may seem perfect on paper, but real relationships are built through time and experience together, not constantly fantasizing about the other person. And Crush exemplified that perfectly with the dichotomy of Paige’s relationships with Gabby and AJ, respectively

No wonder Rhaenyra clocked Laenor so quickly, they are kindred spirits

A subcategory of movies that makes me soft and very hopeful

Realistic, diverse, funny, heartwarming teen Rom-Coms that actually treat their main characters as they are, teenagers. Complete with wonderful chemistry between the lead and the love interest that is just so sweet every time

Rhaenyra and Daemon are now spit sisters

Listen. Electric Touch is the sister song to Treacherous. They both are about the dangers and excitement of falling in love, how they could end in disaster or be the best thing ever. And look at the bridges!

That backwards hat of Melissa’s was a dead giveaway from day one.
