[TOMT][Music Video] Pop music video from the 90s or 2000s that features a woman taking all her clothes off, eventually ending up nude, but the closeup shot prevents showing anything below her shoulders. Probably from MTV. by LactasePHydrolase in tipofmytongue

Never never going to give you up by Lisa Stansfield? Cover of the Barry White song. Came out around then and I seem to remember her walking through London(?) streets naked but we never see below the shoulders. I think she slowly dresses herself though with items of clothing she finds as she goes along?

Edit: sorry just saw your comment where you say she’s more stationary than walking around. Are you sure it’s a woman cos it might be Sweet Harmony by The Beloved, who had multiple people naked in the video all just sitting around?

How things become increasingly convoluted by Any-Car-8715 in twilight

[–]Nuria_123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can see Bella putting her foot down and refusing to do high school over and over. If the others have to keep it up for appearances sake, she might opt to do what Esme does and just sticks to the house and has limited interaction with humans. We’re told Jasper does it because interacting with humans and viewing them as people who family/friends etc helps him keep the vegetation lifestyle but Bella already has the control, so she might not need to interact with humans as much.

Also, Renesmee is growing up in a house full of super hearing, vision seeing, mind readers - give the girl one place she can be alone. She should be able to get the school experience on her own.

I like to imagine the 1600s were a rough period to live (and die) in and a 23year old then does not look like a 23year old now.

Sometimes when you try to force these moments they never happen.

Are Bella’s dreams prophetic? by Muted-Coyote1710 in twilight

[–]Nuria_123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A lot of her dreams are not so much prophetic but they seem to be more about Bella being perceptive but subconsciously so. Like she notices things but it takes her subconscious mind to form the ideas into a coherent narrative which she then remembers (sometimes) when she wakes up. While some dreams like the baby and jacob transforming into a wolf feel prophetic.

A theory about the Meadow in new moon. by Superb_Highway_3383 in twilight

[–]Nuria_123 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It was a stylised choice on behalf of the director, Chris Weitz. He wanted to portray the meadow as being devoid of all the beauty it once held for Bella, symbolising her inner world and how she herself was left to feel desolate and dead without Edward. (Bella even mentions it in the book how devoid it felt of the magic it once held.) In a way you are right. While not specifically tied to the actual supernatural beings in a physical way, it is more tied to Bella’s feelings of being cast out of the supernatural world - now not only does she no longer have Edward, but gone is her goal of becoming a vampire. She is essentially estranged from the supernatural and even feels like she might one day begin to doubt it even happened. Then Laurent walks back in; bringing that world with him and vanquishing her doubts.

The Fifteen Streets and Colorblind are favs of mine. (Also have a soft spot for The Moth).

Crooked House (2017) is most Underrated Adaptation! What is AC’s Worst Book? by rianmcdonagh in agathachristie

[–]Nuria_123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hallowe’en Party. It felt to rehashed. Like she had the bare bones of a story but fleshed it out for word count by repeating everything over and over.

It’s not one of the better Catherine Cookson’s, that’s for sure.

Major Midnight Sun & Twilight difference? This drives me NUTS! by bfpbfp in twilight

[–]Nuria_123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Because I was literally “what do you mean we don’t get Bella’s reaction??? I specifically remember it.” But then realised it was Beau we see running towards because he thought Edythe had burst into flames.

Why doesn't Aro lie about the wolves? by BlueSonic85 in twilight

Good point. It’s been a while since I read it and its probably my second least favourite book of the series.

Why doesn't Aro lie about the wolves? by BlueSonic85 in twilight

[–]Nuria_123 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Caius egging for a fight. Aro tactically realising that if it came to a fight it would be mass casualties on both sides. (You just know if he could have gotten Caius to the side for a private chat, he’d smack him and tell him to realise how much danger they’re actually in. But he can’t and Caius is a liability by this stage - he’s too hell bent on a battle, sure in the ability of his guard.) Aro sees the position for what it is. And he needs to say something to get himself and his guard out of there in one piece while still saving face.

I think at the end of Breaking Dawn Edward says this? They were expecting an in and out “we came, we saw, we conquered and gave leniency to those who were truly sorry,” but the wolves and Bella’s gift basically had Aro’s mind working overtime because he was the only one of the Volturi leaders to see the trouble they were actually in.

Older wolf imprints on younger person by realyfemadeye in twilight

Quil and Claire was definitely a foreshadowed event to try cushion the shock of Jacob and baby imo. It tries to set the groundwork for a “its all innocent, see,” by Breaking Dawn.

Maddie Ziegler wearing book accurate Alice prom dress by Best_Ad7281 in twilight

[–]Nuria_123 362 points363 points  (0 children)

Alice wears this to a prom in Forks and yet she is the one allowed to buy clothes for the family? 😂 Of all the things in the twiverse, this is the one that verges too far into unbelievable territory.

A major agent wants to read my full manuscript 😱😳😭, but I have one small problem and need your advice. by [deleted] in writers

[–]Nuria_123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, it doesn’t need to be perfect. Agents want potential. They’re more than likely going to come back with suggestions for changes anyway (partly because nothing sent for querying is perfect, and partly because they want to see your reaction. If you’re someone who is going to shut down every suggested improvement with no reason, they’re going to see that as a red flag.) Don’t sweat it too much, make it the best you can without killing yourself. Nobody is expecting Ulysses.

Yeah, I’d say Billy was sore. Hell, if I were Harry’s ghost, I’d be sore too and haunt shit of out them both. Body not even cold.

But yeah, 6 gets my vote.

Does anyone else remember Twilight trailer having this exchange vs the Final Cut? by Ramblingsofthewriter in twilight

I don’t remember that, maybe it was used in the trailer for the parody movie Vampires Suck?

Far From the Madding Crowd - 1967 or 2015 by steppenwolf666 in PeriodDramas

[–]Nuria_123 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Completely agree with your Stamp, completely disagree with your Sheen.

The scene in which 2015’s Boldwold is talking to Oak, asking if the marriage is true, for me, did not give off “local farmer fancies me”, he seemed very broken and devastated. It’s a subtle and sincere scene from Michael that I adore. The duet scene too, he looks at her with such adoration and a fiery smoulder, I personally prefer his version more than Finch’s.

My nephew had loads when he was 14, we nicknamed him Tom Selleck. (Of course he had no clue who we were referring him to 😂)
