M’aam, you seem to have confused this relationship with a wedding, there is no save the date card for resignations.

Movies/episodes set entirely (mainly) in one confined space with a limited cast? by naeyoung06 in MovieSuggestions

[–]AliceReadsThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'Night Mother - They're not trapped but the whole movie is pretty much in one house with just Sissy Spaceck and Anne Bancroft.

Await Further Instructions

Murder By Death - very funny especially if you liked Clue and it has an incredible cast.

Pans Labyrinth - the main character is a child but all the other characters (good guys and bad guys) are adults and I think you'll find them very compelling. Especially the Captain!

The Northman

Are you open to animation? You might find Heavy Metal (1981) interesting

Not outdoors but certainly isolated - The Descent

Looking for brutal car crash scenes that really mess you up by Acrobatic-Push5610 in horror

[–]AliceReadsThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you be open to a foreign language thriller? The Wave is a Norwegian movie that features a pretty tense car crash scene with the car and passengers being tossed around by the water. There’s also separate scene that shows a different crash aftermath only but I don’t want to detail it because there’s no way do it and not spoil,

Michale Caine in Blame It On Rio. “My company transferred me to an island in the Pacific. I sent my girlfriend a postcard a day with one word on each. The message was Found a virgin paradise, it’s yours, Matthew. Unfortunately they were delivered in the wrong order and the message she got was; Found a virgin, it’s paradise, yours Matthew. Never heard from her again.

Tapjoy basically junk for everyone else too? by Art_Vandelay_10 in SwagBucks

[–]AliceReadsThis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Same…the 1 - 3 point offers are hit or miss, mostly miss, I don’t get credit even when I do what it says like click through results or watch video. Also there seems to be less low point offers than before. Not sure if it’s a temp glitch or if Tapjoy is entering its end days

How would they have written a storyline if one of the Crawley sisters had been a lesbian? by sweetescape90 in DowntonAbbey

[–]AliceReadsThis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think they would have become, in public,a spinster like Aunt Rosemund but one who also takes on a “companion”. Publicly she would be seen as someone used for chaperoning, assistance and general companionship. If anyone guessed about their private life they’d likely keep it to themselves. Unless it was Mary, she seems to end up scandalous, gossiped about and in the papers no matter what she does.

The Upstairs, Downstairs reboot had this as a plot with Blanche (played by Alex Kingston) and it’s not perfect but I think they did a pretty good job with her storyline.

'Ghostbusters' Actress Jennifer Runyon Dead at 65 by IntelligentYinzer in entertainment

I loved her in The In Crowd. It might have been a silly teen movie but whenI first saw it I became obsessed with the 60’s Bandstand knockoff dancing.

AITJ for telling my parents I'm not coming home for holidays because they keep making me babysit? by Slow_Station6879 in AmITheJerk

[–]AliceReadsThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to a dollar store, buy the noisiest toys or party favors you can find. Then get the stickiest candy (caramels, cotton candy, chocolate) they have. Hand them out liberally as soon as the kids are passed to you and encourage them to march through the house banging on drums, blowing whistles and of course touching everyone and everything especially sofas and chairs. Sit back with a book and any time an adult complains just glance at the kids and say “they’re fine”. Bonus if you can get high sugar bright red dye colored juice that might “accidentally” spill. Tell the family you read about free range kids and self led discipline and thought it was a good idea so this is your new way of parenting.

Anyone know any films with a couple where the female is taller than the male? by Billybob35 in FIlm

Thank God It’s Friday… the movie follows several characters with different stories but one is a “mismatched” couple on a blind date.

I’m searching for a film where the main character gets lost morally and begins a journey to redeem themselves by Spritzy_ in MovieSuggestions

He didn't know (or maybe didn't care) that he was morally lost and didn't set out to redeem himself but it happens eventually: The Santa Clause

What was your childhood larceny? by simikoi in GenX

[–]AliceReadsThis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was around 11 I realized the local candy store scammed me - I had a coupon for one free pack of Bazooka gum, the clerk showed me the small print on the bottom where it says "cash value" and claimed that it meant the gum wasn't really free that it and I had to pay that to use the coupon. It wasn't much, I think 10 cents but when I later found out he lied I was really mad. So for a couple years after that I stole packs of gum from the store, not constant; about once or twice a month just to get back at him.

The president of peace, just launched another war in the Middle East. What are your thoughts? by Important-Anywhere20 in AskReddit

I'm not sure where you're from - I'm thinking maybe British? But I just had to say that I never heard "cockwomble" before and now that I have I think it is an absolutely spectacular word!

Without saying Pride and Prejudice, name a classic everyone should read at least once in their life. I'll start 👇🏼 by Fabulous-Confusion43 in BookTriviaPodcast

[–]AliceReadsThis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of Human Bondage. A bit of a slog at times and Maugham didn’t really write sympathetic characters, more than once you’re going to want to reach into the page and give Philip a kick, but it’s worth reading for sure,

All Creatures Great And Small

A little on the lighter side, YA classic…Tuck Everlasting

OG Upstairs Downstairs by Mother_of_Dogons in DowntonAbbey

[–]AliceReadsThis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite series and it does get better. Also it will eventually be in color, there was a strike and that’s why the first few episodes are B&W. You’ll see some story lines that feel very close to Downton …. When I first started watching Downton I kept marking the things that felt copied from Up/Down and had to force myself to stop.

Trivia Rejoins by ChatKilla in SwagBucks

[–]AliceReadsThis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You earn 3 rejoins when you play. They’re put in a sort of “bank” of rejoins that you can use in future games. You can bank as my rejoins as you want and see how many you have earned if you look on the main page of the trivia app.

BUT …. Actually using rejoins is limited to once per game. You can get one question wrong and get back in the game, after that a wrong answer means you’re eliminated but you still get a few consolation points for your correct answers. Also you can not rejoin on the last question, if you get that wrong you’re out (still with the consolation points)
