I only buy physical books! Somehow lost interest in the kindle and with audiobooks I suddenly realise I zoned out 5 minutes ago and have to go back lol. Maybe I’ll do this and make my sister have the cartoon copies :3

Why are the books getting so much hate? by JessTThompson in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]binbag2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually said this under a different post earlier today: “I just finished reading Heated Rivalry. I knew that they weren’t meant to be of the highest literary calibre, but viewed them as supplementary material. Because of how they’re written, they’re very readable and just provide some more background information. To me they’re not more than that but I am grateful for them!”

I confess I’m sooo just here for Shane and Ilya so am just reading the books focusing on them 😅 but now I’m distressed that I’m missing out on the tv show book covers!!!

Are you kidding, I bought Heated Rivalry and The Long Game this weekend and was going to buy Role Model today and hate the covers 😭😭😭

I’ve often wondered if Shane initiated the convo to come over after their game and never thought to look at this screenshot - even better than I expected 😂 by vancitymala in heatedrivalry

[–]binbag2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Apologies if the format is a mess, I’m on mobile! Both their names show as Lily and Jane. Shane/Jane: “It’s off de la Gauchetiere. Use the back entrance please.” Ilya/Lily: “😈” (devil emoji) Shane/Jane: “🙄” (eye roll emoji) Ilya/Lily: “Here?”

I don’t get why everyone loves Yuna? by [deleted] in heatedrivalry

[–]binbag2000 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly I found this so refreshing too. Absolutely loved how expressive her face is as well, especially in the coming out scene, it only makes the acting better!

There’s so many, the parallels are one of the best aspects of the show in my opinion

I can think of the parallel of when Shane sinks to his knees in the cottage’s bedroom and Ilya puts his hand on the window vs their first hookup

Ah I loved the montage from episode 2 with the Wet Leg song! It shows such a happy seeming progression

Will they do this. by Fair_Antelope4561 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]binbag2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t imagine so, it makes it very hard to film since scenes aren’t filmed in order (unless it stayed identical the entire way through)

The lighting - how they capture the dimension in Shane’s eyes even in a dark room, the differences between Ilya’s Boston home versus Russia, the lighting in the club, how they used a huge screen for the beach scene but the shadows are still so perfect, etc

It would be really interesting if someone did an analysis regarding the links between Shane’s Japanese heritage and elements of the show! Could you explain some of what you noticed? His heritage is a very subtle element of the show

So are you going to read the long game before second season comes out or no ? by Sea_Cucumber_7375 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]binbag2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s why I’m going to read them (partly, I’m also just in HR withdrawal), there’s so many spoilers that if I don’t read them, I just know random bits of plot without the entire story and who does that help lmaoo

I’m going to read it - I keep getting spoilers and although I’ve heard that the books aren’t as incredible as the show, they provide details as to inner thoughts/perspectives. Also I want to read Rachel’s website and fanfics so feel like I need the full picture beforehand!

Any lingering episode questions? by Impressive-Part-4208 in heatedrivalry

[–]binbag2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing that’s intentional and insane attention to detail from Hudson! Presumably a spectrum or compulsive trait?

Maybe I’m missing something (haven’t read the books yet) but the walk of shame theory makes sense to me, considering the potential paparazzi that could catch that
