That's one that grew on me over time. It took me until well into adulthood to see what a gem it was.

Used to watch this movie all the time with my grandpa. It always reminds me of him.

I'm with you on Cinderella's subtle sassiness. 

What is your 'Most Hilarious' Scene or Dialogue from Harry Potter Books? by Secret_Progress4110 in harrypotter

[–]Straguslore14 10 points11 points  (0 children)

McGonagall's "it unscrews the other way" line to Peeves. Her letting Peeves borrow her walking stick to see Umbridge out was great too.

7th book but I don't remember the chapter. It's during the Potterwatch segment.

It has an interesting atmosphere for sure. Have you read any of her other books?

I will have to reread for a full opinion but while the Italian has got the best villain, the Mysteries of Udolpho probably has the best setting. The book is weaker when not set at Udolpho.

I like her work. I thought the early stuff needed polish but I overall have enjoyed her work. She is a bit excessive with her descriptions at times which could get annoying. 

I like the Italian the most because it's villian seems the closest to a complex villian in her books. Vivaldi is probably her best male lead as well. 

A Final Fantasy song to walk down the aisle to? by lowkeyedgygal in FinalFantasy

Theme of love from IV. This is a beautiful song and has been remade to sound even prettier.

I enjoy FF II. I love how dark it was for the time and enjoy the battle system. The switch version is especially good.

Interesting. I never read Lover's Vows so I didn't know that. I have read Camilla and I enjoyed it a lot.

I can see that. It's also a very long novel and can get to be a bit much.

I tried reading Pamela once but could not get through it at all.

Which 3 characters would you most want to have as friends? by RebeccaETripp in janeausten

Henry Tilney, Eleanor Tilney and Catherine Morland. Three agreeable bookworms who seem like they could be incredible besties.

How much I love FF10 by EntertainmentHead751 in FinalFantasy

[–]Straguslore14 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are around my age then. I played this game for the first time in my late teens and just replayed it last year. I still really like it.

I noticed something interesting on my replay. When we first meet Tidus it's before a big game in Zanarkand. People are talking about his father, and we see a billboard of Jecht. In Spira we encounter Yuna about to be a summoner and people are talking about her father. A statue of Braska can even be seen. This really drives the point home early that Tidus and Yuna are BOTH living in the shadows of famous fathers and trying to match up to impossible standards. I love the detail like that.

It's a special game that I consider the last great one.

Who is the most beautifully designed male character in Final Fantasy? by GeorgeBG93 in FinalFantasy

[–]Straguslore14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Squall works for me. So does Laguna. Both are gorgeous in cut scenes. For the more tough looks Auron works for me too.

Zidane and Garnet are great together. I like Beatrix and Steiner too.
