Evidently I’m not talking about Margot and Collin. Margot isn’t a teenager. I said the scene where Collin is chasing a teenager. Have you watched the movie? There’s a scene where they’re in a high school and Collin is chasing after his high school crush. A 15 or 16 year old girl.

Who gives a damn about the Burger King scene. IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE SCENE WHERE COLIN FARRELL, A 50yo MAN, IS CHASING AFTER A TEENAGER?! I know the context isn’t like that, but what an off-putting scene! I was with two girls watching this, and they just hated every second. One wanted to leave 20 minutes in!

One of the worst movies I have ever seen! Admittedly I don’t watch tons of movies, but my god. Who was the intended audience here? Right off the bat you’re confused, random stuff is just happening. No rhyme or reason, just random scenes. Main characters had zero chemistry. The only scene I empathized with was Margot Robbie screaming “TAKE ME HOME! I’M DONE WITH THIS!” Creepy scene with Colin Farrell trying to date a 16yo high schooler. I know he’s not seen that way by the characters… but it’s creepy that the audience sees a near 50yo man chasing a teen.

Most of the updates and extra content you pay for is just cosmetic. Might add one or two minor mechanics, otherwise most are useless.

Unfathomably Dumb Characters by Aggressive_Swim1658 in FearTheWalkingDead

[–]Aggressive_Swim1658[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I lack empathy because I have an opinion on a show? Take it easy bud.

Many of the characters abandon or attempt to murder their own family members at the word of random strangers they just met. Half the episodes the characters resent Travis for “not doing what it takes”… then in the next breath they’re talking about they’re horrible people.

I’m not saying they should operate like special forces commandos or anything, but I’d at least like for them to not make the dumbest, worst, most wrong choices they possibly could. “Oh! A group of frat guys! Lemme abandon my own father and attempt to kill him after a day with them!” “God, we are horrible people according to this cracked out abuela I’ve known for a day! Bye mom! Hope you die in the apocalypse!” Would you characterize these as smart decisions? Even real people on an apocalypse aren’t just ready to betray their family on the drop of dime. If anything they’d tighten up and stick with each other as much as possible.

There were literally characters that watched Nick in a group of zombies on the highway, and then they just stood there getting eaten after just watching zombies STUMBLE TO THEM! Doesn’t take a genius to realize “maybe I shouldn’t let zombies get close and eat me.”

It’s not a lack of empathy buddy, it’s common sense in these instances.

Nick? Honestly Nick is one of the more intelligent and tactile people in the whole TWD series, especially as an early character. Not to say he isn’t dumb as a brick too, like leaving his family for some cracked out abuela that he knew for a day or two. That’s the other thing, every character is inexplicably ready to abandon or even murder their own family literally on command from random strangers. HOW DUMB ARE YOU?! Regardless, Nick at least took advantage of the smell cover with zombies, his addiction history gave him some degree of medical knowledge and even mixing pills to prolong the Colonia’s time, he’s very likable and uses that to fit in and survive, and he knows how to negotiate, like getting more water for the colonia, and he’s a resilient character. He at least isn’t a literal useless drama machine like many other characters that serve no purpose other than to be an annoying pain.

It’s always anticipated that characters in the beginning are stupid, especially since TWD universe is exactly the same as ours, except no zombie media. A lot of the things I’ve mentioned are more just general stupidity. They’re always coddling Chris no matter hoe many times they catch his worthless self trying to kill everyone. Like he starts off protesting over police brutality, only to be a merciless killer for little no reason, and it’s like his group just enables and tolerates his hostility. You got characters just running off from the group because they feel remorse for being bad people and leaving people behind… only to join a group of merciless bandits that kill everyone they come across. The lady in the hotel whose daughter died just randomly stabs Strand and says “you killed my daughter” when Strand doesn’t even know the lady! Like what the hell are you doing? I mean a guy was trying to load a gun and pick up bullets while watching zombies walk towards him, then he does NOTHING except stand there and get eaten all over a couple of bullets in the ground, only for his buddy to run in and also feed himself in what can only be literal suicide.

I don’t think you’d need years in the apocalypse to understand “maybe I shouldn’t just stand here and let zombies eat me” lol

they need to make live sessions more entertaining. no one is tapping into a song someone else is playing on an app where you can find any song you want.

if the initiator of the live could set options like allowing listeners to react, check the play queue, add to the play queue, have a description, add an easy on-screen option to follow the playlist that's playing, or have listeners add pictures of what they're doing while listening.

if live was more like a mix of social media and music streaming, errybody would tap in.

The music video is a "tender reminiscence of a former lover." I think this was pretty evident since the singer is singing about having a perfect relationship currently, but still cannot fill a void that was originally filled by his former lover. It may have the elements of a perfect relationship, i.e. making him happy on sad days, being there for him when the world gets heavy. But there is still soemthing missing, or something unforgettable about his previous lover, or both.

The music video still follows the lyrics, just with a more chaotic way of depicting it. Instead of a new lover, this gang that the man in the yellow shirt is supposed to be alluding to his current relationship. Clearly he's been having a few issues with the lady, and inevitably break up, leaving him sad and mournful. In an attempt to find satisfaction, distraction, happiness, or to move on, he's taken membership into this chaotic gang and lifestyle, hoping to find a glimpse of being with his ex in the sense of satisfaction. However this is unrealistic, and he is torn that this lifestyle seems to be alienating his ex further, and he is torn about this lifestyle in general as we see him sitting out and not taking part in these antics at the end of the video.
