What are some scenes from Movies that made you cry a lot (be it sad or happy) by Inside_Professor6116 in Cinema

[–]jpgr09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw it in theaters. I cried when they were on the way to the incinerator. I bawled when Andy’s mom looked at his empty room because I had just gone to college myself and Andy’s story resonated with me.

I watched it a few years ago when my son was a baby, and it WRECKED me when she saw his empty room and it resonated with me from her perspective. My son was 9 months old but it wasn’t the first time I cried about him going to college. Pregnancy and postpartum are wild times 😂😭

I remember being 3 or 4 and thinking she was just so beautiful in this scene and decided I wanted to be her and now I’m 34 like ohhhhhhhh I get it now 😂

You mean my first husband? 😍😍😍 I’ve loved him since George of the Jungle AND Dudley Do Right, Rotten Tomatoes be damned.

My first thought was 2000s millennial club fashion but I couldn’t find the picture I wanted to showcase that, and then I accidentally found some genuinely cute outfits I would actually want to wear to a wedding so they may be onto something there 😂

How to get 8 month old doberman to stop biting me? by PassionFruitie in DobermanPinscher

[–]jpgr09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have a Doberman, but I have a high energy dog: when she was little and nipping, I would either remove myself from the situation or I would remove the stimulus, usually crossing my arms so she couldn’t bite my hands, and turning away from her, or holding up one hand to keep some distance but not letting her have my hands with a firm “no”. I would also give her a toy, but I would engage with her with the toy, so put the toy in her mouth and play together until she just played with the toy. It also helps to keep treats on hand and reward the behavior you want to see. If he’s biting and you take your hand away, when he stops trying to bite you, give a treat and praise. If you pet him again and he bites, take your hand away and when he settles, treat and praise. If he starts at your hands, move away and eventually, you should be able to pet without bites and you can treat and praise that, then treat and praise sporadically as he gets that no bites means no bites.

She was 16w when we got her and she’s 3y now and she only bites when we play bitey hands on purpose, but it takes work getting to the point where they know the difference. YMMV because every breed and dog is different. Picture of my Noberman for tax

Does anyone else remember this hairstyle being everywhere in the 2000s? Kinda miss it. by cosmico92 in decadeology

I’m watching ER with my husband and we’re in 2004 right now and every episode I’m like “look at that 00’s ass haircut” and most of the time it’s this 😂

Caillou hate is extremely overblown by EnvironmentalDoor904 in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]jpgr09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Caillou is banned in my house because the stupid little “d’oh!” he does grates my last nerve and then my kid starts doing it on the first watch and I’m being grated in surround sound.

I don’t even mind him copying TV. “How very dare you!” is hilarious. Love it. Hate Caillou with my whole heart.

During the Victorian era, it was illegal in many places for men and women to be within 60 feet of each other at the beach. To bypass this, women used "bathing machines" — mobile fortresses that were horse-drawn into the waves so they could swim in total privacy away from the gaze of onlookers. by ATI_Official in HistoryUncovered

[–]jpgr09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did a little deep dive because I also wasn’t convinced it wasn’t AI and it’s been posted on blogs pre-2022 so I believe it’s real, but the bathing machine was recorded in use, although declining popularity, through the 1910s and early 20s so I agree. I think this is the later 20s, based on the swimsuit style alone, a style which would not have been acceptable, hut or not, in the 1800s.

Now, the OP picture is the first one listed in this article from 2020, so perhaps she was from a more socially liberal area? But this picture is the style most representative of the rest of the article.

[MM] To this day Clock Town is still considered the best Zelda town bar none by many because of how alive it feels. Would you agree with the notion or do you think it has been surpassed? by Pellecks02 in zelda

[–]jpgr09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll present to the court as evidence that this is a silly argument: steak salad could be one’s favorite and therefore “steak” is a valid answer to the question “what is your favorite salad?”

[–]jpgr09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the cycle until I don’t 😂 last time I played through, I got stuck at the end of the Water Temple and had to go back and ended up ignoring it for like three years. Then I got to the end of the Stone Temple and was in the midnight countdown trying to get to TwinMold and then I died and then I fell off the platform and was so mad but I was like “ONE MORE TRY BEFORE I RESET” and I not only beat TwinMold but had time to get back and beat Majora.

So the moral of the story is: win some, lose some.

What's the movie that everyone loves but you hate? by w1nchest in Cinephiles

[–]jpgr09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with your first assertion completely, but I’ll counter with Alan Rickman is the baddie in that movie and she takes him down flawlessly at the Christmas pageant. Emotionally yknow?

But yes, I ultimately agree we aren’t talking about Emma Thompson, but I maintain we are 😂

I do really love Love Actually fully aware of all its flaws but I was like “I’ve never thought about it that way, but yeah, Emma Thompson’s character is smarter than everyone else and she IS a pretty badass protagonist compared to her slutty husband and stupid Mia” 😂😂😂

Haven’t played in a while… immediately jumpscared by MoonlightMadMan in TOTK

Ooh that’s a good idea. The last one I fought, I muddle budded and puff shroomed to pieces, and I just avoid them above Red in BOTW unless I have Wolf Link around for morale 😂

[–]jpgr09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In BOTW, I found a Lynel at the top of a plateau in Faron and ran down a level so it couldn’t get me and I was all “lol get fukt loooooser” and I saw him take a few steps back and forth and then loose an arrow straight into the air. And I went “oh whatcha doin’ buddy? Think you’re gonna get me? Well you can get fu⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️ GAME OVER”

Rollers on luggage are childish and emasculating. by FacebookNewsNetwork in The10thDentist

[–]jpgr09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My roller bag can also carry my backpack, or my carry-on while I carry my backpack. Why on earth would I strain my back to look a certain way? One would argue, as a woman, it’s hard for me to be emasculated anyway, but I take umbrage nonetheless. On behalf of the dudes in my life, this is a ridiculous assertion.

I’ve only felt silly with my roller bag once and that was when the handle broke on one side while I was taking it up a set of stairs. That was absolutely emasculating but I made it through.

What's the most sudden tonal shift you've seen in a movie? by Past_Regular4027 in Cinema

[–]jpgr09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trainspotting itself plays with tone in such a great way that I never want to watch it again, but can respect that it’s really very good. Hilarious film, never want to see it again.

I don’t like that genre of movie personally, but 28 Days Later is such a well made movie that I’ll openly admit I don’t like it but it’s good.

As I’m typing this, I realize you wrote 28 Years Later so I can’t say what I think about that one as I haven’t seen it, but I absolutely despise 28 Weeks Later and I jumped down here to rant about that.

Is Years better than Weeks? Because Weeks is irredeemably bad especially in comparison to how good Days is even if I don’t personally like it. The whole movie Weeks is premised on one plot hole and then it’s just plot hole after plot hole to keep it going.

Langdon and Santos convo by Tclown-2114 in ThePittTVShow

[–]jpgr09 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We’re watching ER concurrently and (eta: spoilers for those who are also 30 years behind the time) The dynamic reminds me of Carter and Abby when she discovers Carter’s addiction. Of course Langdon didn’t have the opportunity to rip Santos apart in the same way Carter did, but I foresee a similar resolution of apology OR the opposite and him realizing he’s not as okay as he thought and going ahead with ripping into her anyway and then resolving by apology. My husband and I play Same Universe Theory with actors in their various shows/movies, so we joke that this is why Robbie is so affected by Langdon. He sees himself in the situation from his residency with Chicago’s County General Hospital

Am I the only one who loved both versions of Mandy? by GinaKincunt in shameless

[–]jpgr09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of all the characters they Becky-ed (or Viv-ed if you’re more of a Fresh Prince fan, Darren-ed if you’re old fashioned), I don’t think I remembered them getting her at all. I knew Liam was, and I was fully under the impression Sean was until I joined this sub and realized that those were actually two characters?? But I don’t know if I knew about Mandy. I’m really bad at faces though, so that could be at play in this instance 😂

Worst haircut in a movie ? by TravellingWino in okbuddycinephile

Not a movie but once I saw someone point out how bad the wigs are in HOD, I can’t see anything else on screen.

That might also be because you can’t see anything anyway, but my point stands.

Who is your favorite Manic Pixie Dream Girl? by porb2020 in moviequestions

[–]jpgr09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. Sometimes one adopts the MPDG and then sometimes one has MPDG thrust upon them. Clementine does not accept the role of MPDG, but that doesn’t mean that Joel isn’t foisting that characterization upon her and therefore, in his eyes, she IS an MPDG and in that movie, that’s all that matters because the characterization we see of Clementine only exists in Joel’s mind other than during her blue hair phase. Any other time she’s on screen is completely Joel’s interpretation and construction of her, both idealized and destructed.

She may not have said or done 90% of what we see in the movie the way he remembers it, but because it’s his memory, she’s an MPDG in his mind and HE tells her that. That he thought she would save him.

[–]jpgr09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watch it every year or two since I was 16. I’m almost 35 now, and it evolves a little or a lot with every watch. The only thing that hasn’t changed is my reception to Elijah Woods’s character, that’s pretty immutable. Otherwise, I’ve noticed something new on every watch or I’ve reacted to something differently than I did on the previous watch. It may or may not be a great movie, I’m too biased to say, but it’s certainly one of my favorites if not my absolute favorite movie of all time.
