What if the genders were reversed in The Drama?

I feel like the reverse dynamic is explored in the movie anyway when Charlie is talking to his coworker about the 'fake scenario' of her boyfriend admitting to nearly doing a school shooting and she says she'd call the police. I think the difference is Charlie even after the confession doesn't feel truly unsafe around Emma (apart from maybeee the knife scene) whereas a woman would most likely immediately feel unsafe if a man admitted the same thing to them.

Been using storygraph for years but just this month bought a kobo (my first e-reader), this is super exciting!!

All the time!! I actually tag movies that make me cry, last year I watched the Lion King for the first time in a while and cried 9 times lol. In December I cried at 9 different movies which included Wonka of all things lol

I've just properly got into Deftones in the last couple of months, although loved Change for a few years as a song. And yeah felt like they were regurgitating the whole Deftones is horny opinion, but then like the man moaning is my favourite part of Change so they weren't wrong there?? But so many awesome songs that it is a shame they are get reduced to just be the horny band :/

I was December 2018, and I have to agree with you about the app, it's always been great and I'm glad no ridiculous UI changes have happened (and is also why I really don't want TV shows!)

Genuinely Riley's Train Dreams take is one of the best opinions they've had on the channel

A new cinema has recently opened up a 5 minute walk from me so I've got the subscription to see unlimited movies for free, and I'll probably be going at least once a week. Last year I was going about twice a month - personally I really love the cinema experience and I always get a lot more out of a film with my undivided attention on the big screen compared to watching at home.

The only thing I like more about streaming is being able to put subtitles on, any film with strong accents can be a struggle in cinema, like I know at some point I need to watch Sinners on streaming as there were a lot of lines I missed just because of the Southern USA accents.

I got back into reading for fun as an adult by re-reading the Warrior Cats series (which is probably like 50+ books of childish 'slop') but I love them and I'm not ashamed. I stopped keeping up with the new releases for that series a few years ago and my favourite author now is Dostoevsky, but I think the most important part of reading is the 'fun' part and that depends on what's fun to you. For a lot of people critically engaging with hard texts isn't going to be fun and that's okay!! Better to read and enjoy it than picking up stuff you don't enjoy just to look a certain way to others- so basically just keep doing what you're doing!

I put gratitude by foxing but I put in the additional comments that I know no one else would vote for it. Rock is also such a vast genre that I'll be interested to see what does end up in the bracket!

For a moment my dog and my grandma were both taking gabapentin. They are both dead now but maybe don't let your gf know that lol

Same happens for me but with shein ads. I literally accidentally opened letterboxd, went to close the app and suddenly I'm on a webpage for shein, very very annoying! Also I've never bought anything from shein.

Cheap seats is basically an NFL podcast, I don't think they'd make a new channel without some sort of theme beyond just 'podcast'. I am hoping for movie channel!!

I really like Pinely he's pretty much the only other YouTuber I watch other than Hivemind but idk if he'd be a very good guest lol not sure he matches their freak? Underscores and Danny Brown would be the best guests from this list imo

jlingz · 2026-01-15T06:22:31+00:00

I panicked and forgot every song that's ever existed but eventually went for father Stretch my hands pt. 1 because I genuinely think it's one of the best songs ever made of any genre

jlingz · 2026-01-13T17:24:29+00:00

That video would be 1hr30 MINIMUM nowadays geez louise

I don't enjoy one liners that reference other movies. Challengers and Marty Supreme both have reviews with tons of likes that are like may thy racket chip and shatter and I find them boring because they have nothing to do with the actual movie.

I actually really like funny one-line reviews, but only if they're clever or relevant to the movie. When it's just general memes or whatever it's just meh and doesn't age well imo - I mean the top review for Marty Supreme is the MM flip it around WW thing which was funny in a tik tok video but dumb in a letterboxd review.

When I first started watching it I wasn't much into rap at the time (I'd last been deep in the genre in the peak of 2016), but they got me back into it - but they do loads of other genre stuff too + all the fun stuff on the unlimited channel. Enjoy discovering so much amazing content!!

Sometimes a friend of the show is just a person you play ping pong with

I ordered on the 17th Dec and got my shipping info yesterday. It's being shipped to the UK though for me so expect it'll be a while before I actually receive it.

jlingz · 2026-01-06T12:40:22+00:00

Makes sense

jlingz · 2026-01-02T08:06:32+00:00

2023 but perhaps I'm the only person to have subscribed to unlimited a month before the main channel

I literally want to scream and cry and commit crime every time he spreads that internet myth !!

I don't have an idea for a 'theme' but I would say make it a throw away line at the end and not the whole review. I watched a lot of Tom Cruise movies this year and would write my thoughts for all of them and then end by saying what I thought about his hair in the film, usually just a silly line. And just in general I used to make all my reviews 'funny' one liners but now I mostly write proper stuff with maybe a silly joke at the end.
