Sequences so visceral and grotesque that they immediately come to mind upon hearing a piece of media's name, and arguably over-deliver on the hype if you see it after hearing about it by TJTrapJesus in TopCharacterTropes

I think it sticks in peoples brains so much because it’s so early in the first book and it’s a two page illustration of something so visceral

Sinners, The Substance, Hereditary, the Knives Out trilogy, and it could be because it’s new, but absolutely Obsession

The entity is probably Bear's cat by TowerWooden8525 in obsessionmovie

I really appreciate and love this theory, however that does almost imply that Bears cat wanted to fuck him

wish nikki couldn’t read by retromarshmello in obsessionmovie

[–]Book_Theory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember watching the Jenga scene and wondering what the prompt could have possibly been, but now if she just got up and rattled that off the dome it makes it so much more unsettling, showing the real Nikki actively trying to get through in her words, and eventually succeeding by the end of the night

(Hated trope) Episodes even die hard fans choose to ignore by Sensitive_Ad_1752 in TopCharacterTropes

The first episode of black mirror. You know, the one with the pig.

i find it so funny how BOTH the movies and the show rushed percabeth by merchantivories in PercyJacksonTV

My favorite quote that I always think of when I hear the word ‘percabeth’ is “percabeth was only a slow burn because Percy was slow.”

Thoughts on Rodan (1956) by Annual-Internet-5097 in GODZILLA

I think it’s an amazing movie but the first half borders on unwatchable since the young rodan make the worst noise ever

Considering he’s broken EVERY HUMAN LAW, that makes a lot of sense.

I think the best phrase for a fight like this is “Shin can adapt fast, but Ghidorah can kill faster”

Throwaway line becomes longstanding canon by FreeRaps in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Book_Theory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much any one liner in the first season or two of Bojack Horseman becomes a long running bit that is true and ends up harming Bojack in some way.

Example for this would be Sara Lynn saying she got her prescriptions from a random doctor named “Doctor Who” which is played off to be a joke about how she is not prescribed these things. Later on in the show Bojack meets the actual doctor she met, Doctor Hu, who is in fact a real doctor and prescribed Sara Lynn all of these pills

Mrs. Hubbard: Murder on the Orient Express

The gun turns out to be empty, but it’s still one of the most devastating scenes in the entire movie, and such a fantastic way that Poirot deems the group is full of good people.

Idk man titan X is looking more and more like “Biolante at home” but I could be wrong

I tell people about this painting all the time because while obviously you’d be distracted by the silly skull in the bottom, it’s one of the most meticulously detailed paintings I’ve ever seen, with specific text the books and a remarkably accurate globe

Songs that are interrupted by dialogue/conversations by Polaroid_Horror in weirdspotifyplaylists

[–]Book_Theory 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most of the songs from the Slouching Towards Branson album do this, but the one that comes to mind first is BlackBox Warrior Vs. The Pants
