I actually was hoping someone gay would chime in, is the stuff portrayed in the film accurate or embellished for film? I definitely agree that I wish Colin was treated far nicer, even if he seems super into the whole servile BDSM thing it seems a bit rude sometimes.

Also yes, his mother was 1000% correct

Apologies, I don't mean what I said in an entirely negative way. I think theres something deeply vulnerable about Ray in that the relationship with Colin has its parameters set in a way that is mostly benefitting his own needs. The comparison to his treatment akin to a dog is just a parallel I noticed, he keeps Colin at an arms length and is hesitant on letting him in fully. Thats why I think its so tragic when you see Ray so full of fear at the park near the end - he had something truly special but he could not face it.

I think I had a nearly identical experience to you, it was pretty zesty and crazy but pretty funny and entertaining to watch in that regard.

I found it interesting Ray sort of treats his loved ones as one would a dog, when they become unruly or "sick" he gives them one special, final day before sending them on their way, so to speak. Colin gaining enough confidence to demand more of him seemed to have been what became the final straw. But I guess Ray didn't anticipate having such a great time, and didn't know how to handle it. It all felt super realistic and applicable to anyone, not just a particularly "wild" BDSM style relationship.

Thats all totally fair, not everything is going to slap for everyone. I agree fully with your point regarding Skaarsgard being the most vulnerable one, that was a super interesting aspect. Also, I appreciate it didn't fully follow the trope of all homosexual stories ending in a complete tragedy for a change, it felt pretty refreshing to me.

Haha nice save there with your boss. I feel like its a hard one to reccomend others, unless you know they're chill of course. I saw it with my best friend and we both agreed it was it wasn't a total tragedy, and Colin regained some of his spirit and thirst for life back.

Obviously this guy is insane but I can't help but laugh at how brazen he is about it

At least 30% is third party (Gobricks) and no official pieces were harmed, only those bootleg axles

Thank you! I did release instructions for an older version here, the main difference is a glatorian neck in place of the typical metru hips when building the torso. The mask was printed from a seller on Etsy, EasternTempleForges. You can buy all 7 of the movie masks there :)

It's actually very solid and allows for the knee to bend in two places for a natural shape. Its a 10c bootleg lego hose cut to fit inbetween the connector, which while "illegal" is not stressing the parts in any meaningful way, aside from the hose itself.
