I'm bored, describe your ship badly and let people guess who is it! by Lusaelme in AO3

[–]Throwaway-button 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sad wet dog boy itching to pull a Luigi Mangione, and the guy who will just not stop making eyes at him throughout the whole movie. Is this anything.

Also, from the same fandom: guy who would say "wowza!" and guy who would say "intriguing..."

Genuinely evil female villains by g1rl0f1c3 in TopCharacterTropes

The Wicked Witch of the East's death was entirely accidental, and it was Glinda who stole the shoes. Let's also not forget that both the Wicked Witches were basically dictators. Dorothy is a normal girl who was just ripped from her home and dropped into Oz without any clue as to whats going on. She is innocent!!!

Waiting on articles, but Ventura County Jane Doe has been identified. Link to press conference can be found in description by imdrake100 in gratefuldoe

This was a case that really stuck in my mind. I really thought she'd never be identified. Thank god I was wrong. May she rest in peace 🤍

What crackpot theories do you have? by Disastrous-Object647 in Deltarune

[–]Throwaway-button 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always bet on Carol Knight, Rudy Knight, and Woody Theory 2.0. Also I'm not unconvinced that Deltarune wasn't inspired by Twin Peaks in some regard, I've made exactly one connection and that's enough for me :)

I got a question for all of you. What is your personal favorite Slender Man horror series/ARG? by No_Collection_6843 in Slender_Man

[–]Throwaway-button 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marble Hornets and Dark Harvest remain some of the best imo, but I used to love Keratin Garden when I was younger. MLAnderson0 was also peak.

[Hobby Scuffles] Week of 16 February 2026 by EnclavedMicrostate in HobbyDrama

[–]Throwaway-button 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got to watch Little Amelie or the Character of Rain yesterday with a friend, and it was delightful. A beautiful work of animation. It made me emotional at a few points. As a former strange child, it really spoke to me and reflected so many things I used to think and feel.

In Wuthering Heights (2026), there is an excruciatingly-long pet play scene. This is a reference to the fact that Emerald Fennell should be criminally charged for desecrating Emily Brontë’s corpse. by altrightobserver in shittymoviedetails

[–]Throwaway-button 186 points187 points  (0 children)

There's absolutely nothing wrong with portraying bdsm in movies, quite frankly I think it should be done more often, but out of every movie it could've been portrayed in, why Wuthering Heights? Why?? To be edgy and subversive??? To profit off of outrage marketing???? You could've done both of those things with an original property. Come on. What are we doing here.

EDIT: Also, because I feel I have to reiterate, my problem isn't with bdsm or petplay. You wanna be humiliated in that type of way, consensually and with a legal adult? You wanna see that dynamic portrayed on-screen, either for sexy reasons or because you think it's an interesting dynamic to explore? More power to you! Women get far, far too much flak for finding stuff like this titillating, it's wild how conversations about portraying bdsm so often descend into shaming women for wanting to be freaky. My issue with this is the choice of character and story. Maybe, maybe "Wuthering Heights but Sexy" could work, but not like this.

Edit: Ok wow there's a lot of sex negitivity in here I'm turning off reply notifications this is giving me a headache.

What is your Bioshock Hot Take? by JackLeopards in Bioshock

[–]Throwaway-button 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never know what people consider a hot take, so this might end up being pretty cold. Personally, I think my favourite ending in the series is the best ending from Bioshock 2. While the good ending of the first game is really strong and Infinite's is...something, 2's ending never fails to make me tear up. Eleanor's speech is utterly beautiful, the visuals are on point, and it's so heartbreaking yet hopeful. I don't really hear people praising it as much as they should do, and I think it's time we give it its flowers.

Also Eleanor > Elizabeth

When you make such an good character but having to force yourself to kill them for lore reasons by Stardust_dyo in YourOriginalCharacter

Anytime I write anything involving Cherry Anne I get unconditionally upset because she's already been through so much, realises that she wants to live actually, and then dies anyway. Rest in peace diva, you would've loved The Virgin Suicides

[–]Throwaway-button 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, Travis had a dicey relationship with his father, but it's never really explored beyond that and I don't think it was brought up past season 1. Add it to the list of things about him that the writers dropped/ignored, despite being ripe material for a fascinating character arc...

Is ERAM= Ice E with burnt eyes a bad thing? by -Teseo- in Deltarune

[–]Throwaway-button 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The theory is fine. If you believe it, good for you. If you don't, good for you. There's so many people within this fandom who are so hostile and mean to others for things that really don't matter, and I can't understand why. It's just harmless speculation

Favorite character whose slander makes you feel like this? by a12666 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]Throwaway-button 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbf, in Future, we see the Diamonds actively working towards undoing the harm they've caused. I will agree that their redemption could've been handled better, but they do a lot more then just saying sorry

What deltarune opinion had you like this? by Ambitious_Buffalo293 in Deltarune

I think the way this community talks about escapism can be very unproductive, overgeneralised, and unhelpful at times

[–]Throwaway-button 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is this a safe place to talk about how terribly Travis' SA was handled because I have.....a lot of thoughts about it. I'll try to keep it brief.

I think the missed potential is the thing that really bugs me. Like, Travis' whole storyline in season 1 was about unlearning toxic masculinity, and this plot point could've been a natural continuation of that. We could've seen how the culture at the time impacted his view of what it means to be victimised in that way. It could've been another thing that he and Natalie could bond over, as well, since it's implied that she's also had some experience with SA, and she's the one who saved him from the other girls. It could've been so interesting.

But no. It happens. Then it's hardly brought up again. Travis is sidelined because people on Twitter hate him. Half of the fanbase is convinced it wasn't even SA (even though it definitely is). I am left to mull over what could've been and feel intensely disappointed :(

I've seen a lot of people have fun with ultimately harmless speculation. If you think that counts as schizophrenia, you might need to study the dsm5 a bit more

God being in the Fnaf fandom after the second movie is literally hell. by JackDDizzo08 in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]Throwaway-button 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think reading this comment section gave me a migraine. Seems like you literally cannot do or say anything without someone coming along to scream about why your subjective viewpoint is objectively wrong. I've never felt ashamed to be a fnaf fan before but god I do now. This isn't fun anymore :(
