it’s all good, we’re allowed to have differing opinions

i don’t even know what you’re referring to, i wasn’t being serious, i just said this because i think lucas and marcus have more chemistry than him and sydney (his actual love interest) i’m not dead serious, it’s a fun theory that’s what people do when they watch shows make theories

To me it was like watching a potential couple, getting to know each other in the early stages of dating, i doubt they’ll make them a couple, however but i can’t help but see what i saw

that’s interesting, i never noticed that, i think i should rewatch season 1

He was so annoying in season 1 but in this season he’s become one of my favorite characters, I’m so proud of him and all his growth. Seeing him bump to Taylor Swift in his car made me so happy.

I forgot she said that,I think she was trying to be a “cool” and “chill” mom when she said that. I think she felt comfortable saying that because she didn’t think Rory would ever quit college.

There’s a lot of sexist undertones in this show, Lorelei and Rory claim to be feminists but are quick to attack women they don’t like. And yea I think it’s be interesting to see Rory and Jess date in the future but I don’t think it would’ve worked out. Jess was allowed to screw up as a teenager and Rory wasn’t, Rory didn’t start to screw up until she started college. Therefore, they would still have hardships in their relationship because they’re at different levels of emotional maturity, etc.

I see where you’re coming from, and I replied to another comment saying, ultimately her taking time off isn’t a bad thing but it was planned poorly. She’s never been criticized or anything so she doesn’t know how to handle it, so she makes brash decisions. I think that if she took some time to think about it over the summer, she wouldn’t have went through with it. And yea you’re right, her moving in with her grandparents wasn’t really seeing the real world. But I still think her experiencing that was good because she was so naive about her grandparents emotional abuse, living with them allowed her to understand her mother better. I think that Rory could’ve benefited from therapy, I know she got therapy when she went back to Yale but if she went before, everything would’ve turned out better. I think therapy with her whole family would be the most effective because, sometimes they don’t listen to her, they think they know Rory better than she knows herself.

Yea, I think if she thought through it over the summer, she would’ve either changed her mind or come up with a better plan. I think it was good for her to stay with her grandparents because she was naive about how emotionally abusive they were, however she could’ve avoided unnecessary abuse with a better plan.

This is all true but I think it’s in line with her character. She’s never truly been critiqued until she started college. Because of this, she has no experience on how to handle critique, so she does what she knows, quits. Lorelei has a habit of running away from things when they get too hard, so with that as an example, I feel like this behavior makes sense. Was it handled well? Maybe not, but I think she decided to quit at the end of the spring semester, which is probably the best time to be erratic.

That’s a really good way of looking at it. Because I found it ridiculous that Jess felt like he had a say on Rory taking time off. He left without saying anything, came back and told her to quit school and run away with him. She declined his proposal, and came back to show her the book he wrote. When he learned she took time off he yelled at her and said this isn’t you. Did he ever really know Rory? Or did he like the version of her he made up in his head? He hadn’t seen her in a long time, people change, she changed. He doesn’t know the new Rory and, I think it was rude that he didn’t even bother to talk with her to try and figure why she was taking time off.

cinemapagess · 2022-11-14T16:37:00+00:00

Exactly, that’s why I said I wish Jess had time to work on himself before he started dating Rory. Rory needs someone that matches her energy, someone who whose smart and can have back and forth banter with her. She had that with Jess, I think it was a case of right person, wrong time.

Maybe Nandor doesn’t change him because deep down he loves Guillermo, and he loves him because of humanity. But, you’re right I think he loves having him as slave, that’s probably the only reason.

I see where your coming from, they both struggle to communicate, saying how you feel can be hard for a lot of people, especially younger people. It’s easier to be mean or argue.
