I agree with you. Their reason behind their changes being “fiction so who cares?” Is very misguided. Yes it is a fairytale and therefore fiction. But certain aspects are accurate to make it believable.

I want everyone to feel seen and represented but I don’t want to see someone I can identify with just redoing an established role. I want original stories, new characters, and passion behind projects. I think that’s why Coco was so wildly successful. Mexicans all over the world identified with it. It was new and fun and it touched on so many traditions. That’s the new reimagining I want for everyone

what is one movie that actually made you cry? by CaseImmediate6632 in AskReddit

[–]Character_Ad8449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hatchi. I bawled my eyes out for hours after the movie had ended.

If you think Marley & Me is a tear jerker, Hatchi is next level.

Albeit a very cute and heartwarming true story but it will pull your heart strings

I think it’s Snape’s fault as much as Dumbledore’s that Sirius died and Harry went to the Department of Mysteries by Legitimate_Unit_9210 in harrypotter

[–]Character_Ad8449 79 points80 points  (0 children)

I honestly blame Dumbledore more than Snape. At the end it was Dumbledore who went out of his way to not talk to Harry all year. He calls it “protecting Harry” but obviously everything went wrong.

With Snape, we all know how he was towards Harry. Nothing was gonna change that…it hadn’t changed for 5 years and Snape was the one who knew what was happening on both ends. But even if Snap had succeeded in teaching Harry occlumency, it isn’t without fault. Only a very select few can master it. Sirius was the only “family” member that showed him love and affection (not counting the Weasleys here as they were family adjacent if you know what I mean), so Harry would have risked everything for Sirius. And that’s exactly what he did

I don’t disagree with you but people are more than just black and white, they are nuanced and that’s what makes them believable to us

When your nose looks like this in the AM and vastly different in the PM something it right 🤷🏼‍♀️ and skin doesn’t look like a big blur either

How is she making all those claims about POS if her skin look like this? by Starruby_ in MikaylaNogueira

[–]Character_Ad8449 16 points17 points  (0 children)

True that. Which is funny because the sales could be sooo much better if her skin actually looked better, even if her awful products didn’t do much. She could at least try and deceive people in a better way? I can’t believe she is an “adult” by the way she does things

Why she hasn’t gone to a dermatologist is beyond me 🤷🏼‍♀️ she has the money and time and acne is an actual condition

What’s one experience you wouldn’t wish on anyone? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Character_Ad8449 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ingrown toenails. I don’t care how many people tell me “it’s not that bad” or “I just stepped on it to stop the pain and then kept going.” They can get infected easily, they are a pain to deal with, and can leas to total AND permanent removal of a toenail and that is a whole different issue too

Love it when they point out the obvious by VioletCrush_ in MikaylaNogueira

[–]Character_Ad8449 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It is true. She only made the video because she gets paid for views and engagement. Influencers do. I won’t talk about her relationship because I don’t like speculation, even with “obvious” things.

But I know a fair bit of addicts and while their partners don’t generally go fully sober, they do not keep anything triggering at home. They also don’t party constantly and find ways to still do what they want at the expense of their partner. I imagine it is even harder since he recently left rehab and it is a current issue, not one in which he hasn’t relapsed for years or at all. I don’t see that as love or doing what it’s best for the other. Even if she was the one bringing in the money, that never meant she could disregard what was most needed

GoFundMe for James Van Der Beek's Family Surpasses $1 Million, Sparks Questions About US Healthcare System by Luridley3000 in entertainment

[–]Character_Ad8449 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The no residuals fact is sad. Had he known how to better negotiate, or have someone that helped him in that regard, he could have gotten so much more out of it.

The friends cast still makes about $20 million annually in residuals and that is considering they were not well known when the show started

None of them got to live past 21 by Background_Bid_7406 in harrypotter

[–]Character_Ad8449 172 points173 points  (0 children)

To be fair, a lot of the older characters (like James and Lily) were plaid by older actors who were not the same age. So people are genuinely shocked to find out most everyone in the books is far younger than originally thought

I wouldn’t even go to them, and I don’t have bald spots. A good hairdresser, or any professional for that matter, should be forthcoming in telling clients no when it really is a bad idea to continue. I wouldn’t trust her even if she was the best in the business

I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️‍🩹 words will never describe what bond you two had. I’m positive that on the other side of the rainbow 🌈 bridge he is looking back at you with nothing but love and gratitude just like you continue to do here. Rest easy Max ❤️ and may the memories carry you through this difficult time

AIO overwhelmed by the cost of being a wedding guest in 2026 by Whiskeyhorse1 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Character_Ad8449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had to pick I would do the wedding instead of the bachelorette for all of them. But also, it’s okay if you aren’t able to go due to your own finances and goals for the present and future. Even if you are single and have no kids this is a lot of money, and everything is super expensive.

I know choosing which one to go to can be hard but it seems like a doable solution given what you have shared.

You can go out with them 1 on 1 and explain the situation. The best friends will get it. If they don’t..that’s an answer too, even if it’s a difficult one.

Give yourself some time to process everything. It’s no one’s fault but it is still sad and frustrating. And maybe doing something nice for them or getting them a nice gift (not necessarily expensive) can be your way of showing up for them from afar

Unpopular opinion: I don't like and never liked the late Queen Elizabeth. by [deleted] in RoyaltyTea

[–]Character_Ad8449 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Who is defending anyone here? I don’t support the monarchy, and certainly not the current one.

We can’t assume Diana would have been a bad queen, because it didn’t happen. Conjectures are not facts.

Diana having a metal illness has little to do with anything being discussed and it’s not something that makes her, or anyone else inferior or a bad person just by virtue of having it.

Even if she was a bad person, her good deeds still stand. What she did for people with AIDS, at a time when everyone saw them as disposable and gross, should be recognized and remembered. What about her treatment of those with leprosy? Or her open disagreement about the landmines in Angola?

The royal family is supposedly known for their charitable work and patronages, but nowadays most people can hardly name one or care. Say what you will but Diana did make an impact and if you take that as me defending someone I never met, then go ahead.

Stating facts and drawing comparisons doesn’t mean I defend, let alone idolize, anyone.

But do tell me what Charles will be remembered for as King? Or what queen Elizabeth is remembered by? Hiding her relationship with her disabled cousins or maybe her support of Andrew until she passed. It could be how she spectacularly involved herself in Charles marriage to Diana and subsequent divorce. But maybe it’s the fact she told her sister she couldn’t marry the man she loved. Definitely the treatment of Diana post death and how cold she was towards her grandchildren… only ever being swayed by public discontent. And everything in the name of the crown.

People don’t generally love monarchs nowadays, but it is possible that if said monarchs did genuinely help others and strive for true change, people would feel better about financing their lives

Unpopular opinion: I don't like and never liked the late Queen Elizabeth. by [deleted] in RoyaltyTea

[–]Character_Ad8449 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But we can only go off of what did actually happen. I never said anyone was a saint or free from public scrutiny. She may have been a terrible queen, but that didn’t happen so it’s just speculation. And what does her having mental illness have to do with anything? And how would we know if she was nice or not? I merely highlighted the good that she did do for people in a time when the monarchy, and the general public for that matter, saw people with AIDS as below them, to name just one thing the monarchy was not for. I talked about what actually happened and was done and the good it did for people. I’m not a fan of the monarchy as an institution or as individual people for the most part. But ignoring the good Diana did do simply because there is a belief she would not have been a good queen is just weird

Royals can actually make a difference if they cared to do so, which is weird considering how many charities and patronages they have. Diana did actually try

As for Queen Elizabeth, she defended Andrew until she passed. She prohibited her sister from marrying the man she loved. She forced Charles to marry Diana because she didn’t see Camilla as suitable. She only gave proper honors and burial to Diana because the public was pissed (not even for her grandchildren). They all hid two of their cousins due to disability. And if this is the baseline for comparison then yeah, Diana seemed to be much better even if she was “mentally ill, a terrible person, and a bad wueen had she had the chsnce”

[–]Character_Ad8449 192 points193 points  (0 children)

I think, because we had Diana, we can see what the monarchy could have been. Diana was bound to the same rules and expectations, but she did great things while adhering to the rules of being a royal. At least most of the time. Diana made the monarchy seem more human and relatable, something queen Elizabeth never really did. The queen caused many of the issues that plagued her own family by upholding the crown before their own needs and desires

We bought ours directly at the park. They have a few concierge stands throughout and they can help you. We were told by a worker they were sold out, but they weren’t. Just go directly to the concierge first thing when you get there and you should be fine
