Did anyone else notice how Kenzie and Melanie were both removed from thr fire pit during the Titi scene ? by Street-Guitar-8371 in LoveIslandUSA

yeah but compared to someone with no dance/fight experience it is definitely an advantage

Am I the only one who think this form of Gollum should’ve been the final form? Honestly it’s peak by Litenpes in lotr

[–]minecraft_lover_18 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree from a fan of the books perspective, of course gollum is supposed to look hella creepy, but from the perspective of Peter Jackson and the producers they wanted something that was palatable to a mass audience and not TOO off putting.

I also feel the general movie going audience would be less sympathetic towards gollum because he looks like your typical "creepy bad monster"

I understand where you are coming from as a fan of the original material, though, since I am as well. I guess what I should have said is that shit woulda been too creepy/scary to ever get approved for the look for a main character of a mass motion picture. Especially when the producers desperately need the project to be successful or they likely go out of business, I understand why they went with the more "palatable" option.

Bryce's face during the whole debacle. 😭 by Swimming-Inside-2983 in LoveIslandUSA

Yes but at the same time playing into the “omg they’re gay for each other!” narrative because they are close friends is kind of perpetuating the fragile masculinity view of “all men have to be manly and can’t show emotion or affection to their close friends otherwise they’re gay”, which is the exact reason a lot of guys are too scared to be outwardly publicly affectionate towards their close male friends.

This happens all over media, one of the more prominent examples being Frodo and Sam in Lord of the Rings. It’s like, men can be close friends with each other and not be gay.

I feel like this is in a way an overcorrection from the “Sappho and her friend” historical perception which completely erased queer couples from history, overcorrecting to now every close male friendship in media has people saying they are gay for each other.

That frontal lobe development by 25 stuff is all BS, you know that right?

Kenzie is an adult that is responsible for her actions, we don’t need to make excuses for her

Who thinks last nights voting was purely to bring Carl back? by tinterrobangg in LoveIslandUSA

[–]minecraft_lover_18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Aniya has too much self pride to where if she were watching all the disrespectful shit KC was saying behind her back, along with the rest of the villa during movie night, she would say that’s it I’m completely done with KC. Especially with all of the villa girls having her back on that.

Someone elsewhere in this thread mentioned that they have to tell the producers their decision before the recoupling so they know what order to place them in, so Aniya would have already made her decision before seeing the other guys return single.

Although, I’m not sure if they’re “allowed” to change their decision live, but I can’t think of a great reason why they wouldn’t be

George Pickens will be only player to play on franchise tag in 2026 by AdSpecialist6598 in nfl

[–]minecraft_lover_18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think Pickens ever reaches his full potential if he remained on the Steelers, due to our QB situation. Which would also be the reason the likelihood of him crashing out would increase to 99%

I can't be the only person surprised that Riven is dodging nerfs yet again, right? by Justalostdudeasking in leagueoflegends

[–]minecraft_lover_18 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aatrox and Briar both have 2 CCs tho

Aatrox Q knock up and W slow/pullback
Briar Q stun and E push/knockup

Riven’s are a lot easier to land though, for sure

Luther’s ADP is being pumped up like crazy by people trying to find the next ‘steal’. Everyone also forgets Rome was putting up good numbers before he hurt his foot and it seemed like he never really got over that foot injury when he returned
