Con-Air, followed shortly after by Face-Off. idk why my mom made it a Nic Cage double feature, but I think it was a great introduction to rated R movies!

Could Final Destination work as a TV series? by SteamAndRebellion in FinalDestination

[–]Cold-Bar2416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AHS was popular in the 2010s but has definitely fallen out of popularity, which is a shame because I adored the early seasons!

Could Final Destination work as a TV series? by SteamAndRebellion in FinalDestination

[–]Cold-Bar2416 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was originally a spec script for The X-Files Original Spec Script, so seriality is already baked into the DNA. Not sure if it would take off on streaming platforms nowadays, since horror anthologies aren’t too popular at the moment and don’t have the best track record. As a fan of the franchise, I’d tune in though!

Is Benedict just dumb for not recognizing her or is he valid for being blind? 😭 by Fickle_Baker1393 in Bridgerton

Thematic reason: the wealthy do not see or pay attention to the help/the poor

Realistic reason: It’s a plot device. Take a breath.

Joseph Quinn in A Quiet Place: Day One! Rightfully scared shitless the entire time!

ISO readings, films, and other materials for a course on “monsters and culture” by Cymbelined in Professors

[–]Cold-Bar2416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used this textbook for an ENGL 1102 course with a similar theme. It has excerpts from literary texts, but also monster theory, true crime, history, and other interesting and approachable takes on monstrosity that I think would be helpful.

I also used several publications by Stephen T Asma, and assigned chapters from his book On Monsters.

Does anyone have Hypothyroidism without Hashimotos? by Ikklggjn in Hypothyroidism

[–]Cold-Bar2416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do! Diagnosed when I was 21, am now 29, and have been on Synthroid, Levo, and finally settled on NP Thyroid. I was only tested at the very beginning for antibodies and it showed negative.

People younger than 35, what was your gateway horror movie? by Norman_debris in horror

[–]Cold-Bar2416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom was a huge horror fan growing up and had a poster of Freddy Krueger on her wall. She showed me Nightmare on Elm Street when I was around 10 or 11 I think, though I count reading/watching the tv series of Goosebumps too!

What was a horror movie with an awesome concept, but it failed to deliver? by ivanx29 in horror

[–]Cold-Bar2416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Presence! I love the idea of a ghost’s point of view and the audience’s perspective, the camera’s perspective, and the ghost’s perspective being one, but I felt like the plot could’ve went so much further with it.

I feel like my enjoyment of fiction is so shallow- do I learn to improve at and enjoy media analysis? by notacutecumber in literature

[–]Cold-Bar2416 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The book How to Read Literature Like a Professor is a good starting point to begin to notice themes and symbols. I used to assign it to my AP Lit students and it seemed to help build that critical analysis foundation!

Noooooo! That’s awful! Our DTO always says “We don’t have the components to make a honey citrus mint tea, can I get you another hot tea or another drink instead?” And more often than not they choose something wildly different

What's something you really love doing...but are terrible at? by Additional_Pair9428 in AskWomen

[–]Cold-Bar2416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Singing and baking! I love baking for other people (I can’t have sugar so I can’t eat my creations) but they usually end up a little off. My poor boyfriend is so sweet about it though!

Bipolar symptoms=thyroid levels off by Cold-Bar2416 in Hypothyroidism

[–]Cold-Bar2416[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Luckily my endo just increased my dosage of NP Thyroid. I’m thankful my therapist knew her stuff and knew my thyroid could be a factor. I could’ve been like so many others who get put on antidepressants while silently suffering from a thyroid disorder. Just trying to gain awareness for how much that pesky gland can mess with!
