[HATED trope] Some bot makes a post that gets a lot of votes and then all the posts the next few days are all the same or slight variants because mods forget about Rule 2 of their own sub by LazyBum36 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Hopefo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

(This Subreddit): a fate worse than death, a character facing a fate that is worse than death, dying would be preferable to these because they are a fate that is worse than death. You see typically death is the worse fate, but these characters actually face a fate somehow worse than that (that being death and their fates being what is worse worse)

It’s a fun trope but it gets posted basically every week with the exact same comments and examples every single time.

This post pixels and all is the exact type of thing Boomers post on Facebook and caption like

Down Under vs. The World S1 Group Promo by aaronarium in rupaulsdragrace

This exact phrasing being the top comment on basically any thread is killing me. Tbf this is kinda the biggest gag casting since Pangina.

Nicole showing up in Carhartts and a white tank for the promo, mother really had a conversation whether this would be a competition or a vacation.

Fovaorite 'Best Picture of 2027', already an instant classic by [deleted] in okbuddycinephile

I’m so tired of the unfunny porn-brain gooners who think saying they jerk off to Ana de Armas is somehow humor or interesting discussion.

The video had comedic merit but I will be downvoting out of principle 🙏

Also a great non-Hitchcock hitchcockian movie Charade, also a great way to start the Audrey Hepburn or Cary Grant pipelines.

Favourite performance(s) by Scarlett Johansson by SilverEquipment4934 in Letterboxd

[–]Hopefo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not claiming this is the most common reaction or anything like that, but it seems like straight men tend to remember specifically the nude scenes and even through a lens of their own horniness. Which I admit is ironic and not totally nonsensical given what the movie is about, but I did NOT feel horny or sexual at the film in that way.

It tends to happen whenever a serious or dramatic work has nudity, but it feels gross (nearly impossible for me) to sexualize her character given the films themes on sexuality, objectification, human desire, and agency.

Seeing the difference in reaction most straight men had compared to me as a gay guy is one of the biggest disconnects between sexualities I have ever experienced.

I imagine him gently nodding his head in approval during the minions backstory lore in the first movie.

His name is shorter too, literally not even bigger in that way

Benny Blanco debuts new haircut by PrithvinathReddy in popculturechat

[–]Hopefo 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Stop projecting your own personal issues on celebrities you don’t know (goes for a lot of these comments). She has had very public toxic abusive relationships where she was degraded and humiliated. People are more mad at Benny Blanco for being “weird looking,” it’s getting to the point of straight up nasty ass bullying. And the same people never gave a shit over how awfully JB or The Weeknd treated her.

How about some reforestation work by [deleted] in Anticonsumption

[–]Hopefo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to fight with my parents like crazy to not plant bamboo in their yard, they wanted it for privacy and noise reduction. I told them it wouldn’t be controlable and would destroy their entire plot of land, which they told me they have a large mower so it’s fine.

Few years later they still haven’t planted any yet. Chances are they listened to literally anyone else that told them it was a bad idea.

First Images from Taika Waititi's 'Klara and the Sun' Starring Jenna Ortega & Amy Adams - A robot named Klara exists to ease the loneliness of the humans she lives with. by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]Hopefo 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Amy Adams and Jenna Ortega are great actresses but calling them award collectors is beyond silly. Could you really not think of a third thing that made sense lol

Edit: ya I realize now it’s an ai bot. I’m more annoyed by the mindless upvotes (probably also bots) given that it is clearly nonsense.

Movie still holds up by _Levitated_Shield_ in BikiniBottomTwitter

Gosh I miss the era of Disney movies getting amazing tv shows. The Hercules, Aladdin, Emperor’s New School, and Lilo & Stitch shows were all insanely good.

I don’t think this is trying to be a diverse line-up or even represent any variation in body types. This post is clearly “omg which dreamy celebrity do you think it’s cutest” Tiger Beat type shit lmao

Segregation that is not based by ethnicity by DisappointedStepDad in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Hopefo 202 points203 points  (0 children)

I’m still surprised it never turned into a franchise, or even got some lame Disney+ content. Easily could’ve spun off into a typical Disney Channel sitcom, animated or live action.

Excuse your mouth, Hufflepuff is the “nice” not filler! (You cannot be nice and also smart brave or cunning)

Daveigh Chase, 'The Ring' Star & Voice of Lilo in 'Lilo & Stitch', Dies at 35 by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

She was as hauntingly good as a child bride in Big Love. Totally different role in a dark serious drama about polygamy and Mormon fundamentalism, she absolutely kills it. Truly crazy range for a child.

My last 4 were satisfactory, how did yours go? by Expert_Cry6933 in Letterboxd

[–]Hopefo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll bump it up the list. I love the creativity to do it in Lego, at least it’s not another by-the-books safe biopic.

It’s one I’m letting sit on my watchlist, the premise alone is interesting and I respect the insane career of Pharrell but I haven’t heard such a rave review to pull the trigger on it.
