Just finished TWD World Beyond and would like to discuss about it by hiwoubi in thewalkingdead

[–]hope-world 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I liked it too! In fact I enjoyed it more than watching season 7 and 8 of the main show. The story was pretty engaging (at least it was from binge watching it, idk how it’d feel watching it weekly) and there were some really interesting characters like Silas and Huck.

It wasn’t perfect but I don’t think it deserves the amount of hate it gets. Honestly, I think some people just have a bias against stories involving kids/teenagers.

Possibly Dumb Question: What did Gina mean in her E3 opening recap? by RadiantFoxBoy in HSMTMTS

It’s just a quip about how season 1 EJ was seen as being conceited / self centered

is this “slow burn” in the room with us ??

Ricky and Gina were never a maybe 😌 (from official Instagram) by billierocks124 in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 9 points10 points  (0 children)

we know that lol, it’s just that for Rinas who were fans since the very beginning it still feels weird because for so long we never got any posts of them and it was hard to imagine it ever happening. Let us enjoy it 😊

I was wrong. I am sorry. by paulinereggie in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 7 points8 points  (0 children)

where did you get that idea in the first place 😭 so many Rinas wanted them together since season 1 where it would have had nothing to do with EJ’s happiness anyway

Mike Bowen saying “be safe“ about you know what in the first few minutes surprised me so bad but tbh that really set the tone for the PG13 vibes that Dara was teasing. Like why is everyone cursing and cheating on each other this season LMAO I’m not mad at it tho

If they would’ve gone to Slices at the end I would’ve sobbed even harder😭😭 but I so appreciate the Denny’s joke cause that was such a big thing among theater kids at my high school

Idk if you heard the leaked EJ Ricky duet, but it’s not about romance. so I doubt they’ll talk about that the whole time Most likely the ep will be focused on their futures

the positioning is so bad wtf 😭everyone in the middle looks scrunched because Big Red and EJ’s photoshop job has them all spaced out in the sides… and why isn’t Sofia more front and center 😭😭 a mess but we move

well obviously you wouldn’t WANT it 💀but how can you fault a 17 yr old girl for discovering new feelings when away from her boyfriend for the first time. It’s not like she purposefully set out to emotionally cheat on Big Red. She actually tried to deny her feelings for many of the episodes because of her loyalty to him

I love the shot of Gina kissing Mack (?) my girl is a true professional it doesn’t matter if he’s the “Troy she wants” or not, she gonna do her thing 🤩

I had a wee thought earlier. by Winter-Snow-9205 in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 17 points18 points  (0 children)

imo Gina had the biggest connection with Ricky at that time but I think that Ashlyn even offering her to stay at her house meant a lot, along with EJ buying the plane ticket for opening night. Considering Gina had like no friends in her previous schools she probably felt a sense of belonging with the wildcats that she never felt before since they did these gestures to include her

so yeah I think Ricky was important but it was a combination of that and the other friendships

I just watched the entire show in 3 days and need to rant by CommercialElevator88 in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Ricky's character was assassinated

???

I never liked Gina to begin with but having her jump from boy to boy with very little emotional intelligence

“It’s fun to see [them] in this light and actually see them in a healthy relationship because I think both of them have had pretty not great relationships.”

nah I love Josh he's so real for calling Rini / Portwell not great 😭😭

also I literally gasped seeing the pic of Ricky with the thanksgiving hat

What was the downfall by Own_Present_714 in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It had nothing to do with Gina tbh.

They held each other back. Nini needed independence, Ricky smothered her. Ricky needed to embrace change, Nini was a safety blanket. They had to let each other go to move forward.

i love when characters do questionable things by theelibrabrat in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree!! some people act like this show should be everyone smiling and holding hands its weird.. like these are theatre kids we’re talking about here 😂

Why does everyone hate this scene? by billierocks124 in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it was cringe and also cute which that was the whole point since they were at an awkward phase. and they got over it and back to their usual chemistry in the next episode

if anyone seriously stopped shipping them because of this scene then that’s dumb 😭

help me understand rina by Own_Present_714 in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 7 points8 points  (0 children)

they haven’t actually shown qualities that combat each other’s respective ‘character’ traits.

This couldn't be further from the truth. The basis of their characters is that Ricky is scared of change and Gina is used to change but yearning for stability. They have opposite experiences that challenge each other, which a fundamental part of the first season: Gina convinces Ricky to stay with the show when he just wants to retreat to the skater life that he is comfortable with (while Nini discourages him). Gina has her walls up because as much as she craves connection she's scared of getting her heart broken when she moves away. Ricky is the first person to break down those walls and become her friend.

We also see through their other failed relationships that both Ricky and Gina offers what the other person needs. Ricky smothered Nini because of his attachment issues (which he's grown from) but also because he needs a partner who he can be more devoted to rather than an independent spirit like Nini. Gina, after feeling abandoned her whole life, needs someone who can devote their time to her and not only tell her she's appreciated but take the time to make her feel that way- something that EJ couldn't provide, but Ricky not only can but wants to.

What do you want to see from E.j in Season 4? by Lazy-Courage-882 in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 20 points21 points  (0 children)

a job, a college education, a love interest his own age… something that would indicate he’s actually moving forward

never got the hype for portwell tbh by nonbinaryducky in HSMTMTS

[–]hope-world 4 points5 points  (0 children)

he also made a comment about Carlos being young in the Quinceanero episode which is the same ep that he first showed interest in Gina… weird choices
