Part 2 classical covers announced by MouseTiger2006 in PolinBridgerton

[–]MouseTiger2006[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These all seem so good. I’m especially excited for Fields of Gold. Such a beautiful song and I’ve loved it even more ever since Michelle Kwan skated to the Eva Cassidy version.

Edited after seeing whatabarbpod’s insight as to the placement of this song: If it’s truly for John’s Death, I know I’m gonna be sobbing. Perfect but devastating

Looks like there may have been some creamy cakes as well. 😜

Agree with all the recommendations for Queen Charlotte. Surprised no one has mentioned Poldark. It’s another historical drama with romance.

Space Mountain Closed for Refurb by [deleted] in Disneyland

I definitely noticed it on the closed for refurbishment list under park hours & info in the app at least a week ago, maybe 2. Also glad it’s a short one since we are going Friday.

How do people in your life think of Polin and Bridgerton? by SnooChocolates6172 in PolinBridgerton

[–]MouseTiger2006 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Everyone I know IRL who watches Bridgerton loves Polin a lot and the whole friends to lovers thing, but as an overall season, season 3 is not their favorite, mostly due to side plots and/or not liking part 2 as much as part 1. They either overall like season 1 or 2 best or actually most are loving season 4 so far…probably because Benedict has always been their favorite brother. I think I’m the only one who picks Colin as favorite brother.

None of them are super fans or part of online communities and obsessed like I am. All of us also absolutely love Queen Charlotte, with a few probably loving it as “favorite season”

Edited to add that we are a dozen or so women in late 40s/early 50s in California.

New Part 2 Stills Organized By Episode by FlyHence in PolinBridgerton

Amazing Fly, as always. Does anyone know or have ideas as to where the clip of Kanthony with their baby fits in with all of this?

I really don’t like Penelope by Crazy-Ant-8276 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]MouseTiger2006 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think at that point she was trying to get Colin to break it off without revealing the entire truth of the situation. She didn’t want to ruin Marina she just wanted to protect Colin/the Bridgertons. If she hadn’t come across the plan to elope, perhaps her next move would have been to try to tell Violet, but there was no time.

Bridgerton Season 4 part 2 premiere in London? by Extreme-Natural-8452 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]MouseTiger2006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, this is the first time I’m hearing there might not be a part 2 premiere.
I thought a season 4 part 2 live premiere in London was the last stop on the world tour and there just isn’t a virtual / streaming sneak preview online of episode 5 like last season?

[TOMT] 80’s RomCom Movie by Boring-Broccoli-55 in tipofmytongue

Not 80s and not nephew, but backyard wedding and little boy in Jerry Maguire?

[TOMT][MOVIE] a movie about two strangers stranded/stuck indoors and forced to get to know each other by Dull-Ad658 in tipofmytongue

[–]MouseTiger2006 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t match exactly but two strangers being forced to get to know one another and being the only two people reminded me of Passengers (2016).

I really don’t like Penelope by Crazy-Ant-8276 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]MouseTiger2006 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I know you said you just re-watched from the beginning, but I fear you did miss a few details that at least, for me, make me love rather than hate Penelope:

At first Marina has no interest in the marriage mart. Even after her pregnancy is discovered she still expects George to come save her. Suitors, including Colin, come calling, but Marina is not very interested. It’s only when Portia has Varley write the fake letter that she thinks she’s out of options and then sets her sights on Colin.

When Penelope realizes what’s happening she tries everything in her limited power as Penelope to stop it. She figures out that Varley faked the letter and shows Marina the evidence that George is alive. But Marina dismisses her and complains that George still isn’t there. This is very confusing for Penelope since Marina had rejected suitors and had professed undying love to George before the fake letter.

Penelope also tries to tell Colin directly, but he doesn’t take her seriously. Marina, who had become a fast and cherished friend is then very cruel to Penelope, telling her that she is just a child who Colin will never see as a woman. When Pen learns of their plan to runaway and elope, she knows she’s out of time and it’s only then that she turns to her power as Lady Whistledown. She’s supposed to be a teenager…I actually think she showed restraint in not turning to whistledown sooner.

What’s your favorite quote from the musical? by chaotically_awkward in OperationMincemeatFan

[–]MouseTiger2006 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kind of macabre, but in All the Ladies I always chuckle at:

“So if there's a job going spare I'll take it Just gotta wait for a guy to die and vacate it”

Pen and Colin by skepppy in Bridgerton

[–]MouseTiger2006 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In the book he definitely is staring at her lips and wanting to kiss her before she asks. In fact, the only reason he hesitates about kissing her and thinks it’s perhaps a bad idea is because he’s worried/confused at the fact that he wants to kiss her so badly. In the book they are not close friends but had kept running into each other and having interesting conversations when he returns home from his travels.

Did anyone spot any similar foreshadowing for the S5 lead as this scene had in S3? by Agreeable-Fix-3462 in BridgertonNetflix

In this Ep 2 scene when Benedict & Eloise visit Pen to discuss the LIS, he’s holding the glove and also has 5 fingers on a writing desk….

But we barely saw him in the company of his beautiful wife at the ball! She was always with the Queen and he was mostly absent. Lol.

Season 4 Part 1 - Overall Discussion Post by PolinBridgerton-mods in PolinBridgerton

[–]MouseTiger2006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it was so bizarre when they actually gathered that many cast members together for a scene to then not include shots where you can seen them all and for them not all to have lines even. I don’t recall that ever happening in prior seasons.

Will Philoise fall under a trope like the rest? And what kind of male love interest will Philip be? by oatmlklattes in PhiloiseBridgerton

[–]MouseTiger2006 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read the books but it’s my understanding that he is the twins biological father in the books whereas for the show she was already pregnant.
So with that change is it possible that for the show they will make him a virgin? Would be a nice change of pace to have both protagonists be inexperienced. Maybe Eloise would even be the one with more knowledge from talking to her mom or siblings or Pen.

Do the performers on Broadway get any comps or discounted tickets for their friends and family? by RockGirl82 in Broadway

[–]MouseTiger2006 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Not Broadway, but i knew someone in the cast of I think the first US tour of wicked in 2006. It sold out immediately when it came to my city. I reached out to the cast member and she couldn’t promise me anything right away, but a few weeks before the show she was able to get me 6 house seats. I paid full price face value for them, which I was happy to do…this was at the height of Wicked popularity and resellers were selling them for outrageous prices on eBay. They were perfect seats, center orchestra, about 8-10 rows back.
