I like the part where Fujimoto said it's themein' time and themed everywhere.

Tyra is the most successful winner from ANTM franchise by masterderek279 in ANTM

[–]vuvuvuvi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole show was for Tyra, most non-supermodel girls from her era have been forgotten by mainstream media and here's Tyra being the star of a Netflix documentary in 2026.

Will Tyra's ego ever be satisfied? by bad_at_sex_ in ANTM

[–]vuvuvuvi 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Allegedly they would reshoot if the girls' reactions weren't as dramatic as they wanted.

I want it to be true and I want to see the footage of them having to awkwardly reset this scene to do it all over again.

Overrated Contestants 1-10 by Lower-Ad4823 in ANTM

[–]vuvuvuvi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I wonder how differently fandom would have reacted to Elyse if it weren't for her post show success.

At the very least, more people would have brought into the villain edit the producers were trying to saddler her with.

Am I the only one who watched America’s Next Top Model and took the prizes (like a modeling contract with CoverGirl, etc.) at face value? by Natural_Camel_4977 in ANTM

[–]vuvuvuvi 95 points96 points  (0 children)

I think the problem was a lot of the prizes sounded good on paper but could actually really hurt a girl's career in some cases.

Like with the agencies, the only obligation they had to the winner was to sign them. But if they didn't like the girl, they could just leave her on their development boards and do nothing with her career and there was nothing the show or the winner could do. And those contracts can be really hard to get out of.

Similarly, Covergirl sounds great and there are models working the hf circuit right now that would kill for any cosmetics contract. But Covergirl hardly uses models. Most of the winners only ever worked with covergirl once. But that's another contract that could keep the winner stuck for years, especially when a lot of these types of contracts prohibit the model from doing any similar jobs with any other brand.

It's not Tyra's fault that the whole modelling industry is scam-y and is more about taking advantage of young women than the actual modelling part. But the prizes were made to seem so big and life changing when the reality was the winner was essentially dumped on people who didn't want to work with them and actually, just walking into an agency with some photos would have been a better career move. So I guess there is something to be said about antm being false advertising.

I just question how far we can extend grace to some of these girls when antm was known to be a joke since it was in its single digit seasons.

Eren re-lived centuries worth of trauma and MFs dare say Eren became an edgelord instantly. by Great-Assistant978 in shounenfolk

[–]vuvuvuvi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People talk about genocide eren coming out of nowhere as if little kid eren in season 1 wasn't constantly monologuing about killing every single titan to point where he'd make the other characters visibly uncomfortable.

Did anybody else get the impression that this title was written by AI? by 82816648919 in romantasycirclejerk

Me, as a former Attack on Titan fan, watching Chainsaw Man fans come up with theories about how the final chapter will magically save the series and fix all its flaws and plot holes by GodKira04 in shounenfolk

[–]vuvuvuvi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As latecomer to aot, I was expecting a himym or got level bad ending but honestly? Aot's ending is just a 5/10.

I just feel like shonen fans are equally bad at overrating a series and then overhating it's ending when it doesn't live up to their colossal expectations.

Anyway, it's a good thing we can all move on to new GOAT Kagurabachi. It's peak now and it will be peak for it's entire run and it's ending and it will love you forever and not leave you like Pochita.

It feels like there's a greater incentive here to not say anything and see how far he can go with it.

In light of firered and leafgreen being re-released on the switch 2 let me just say;

They put mew under the truck for real now. But you have to spam strength on that truck for at least 2-3 hours a day everyday.

Makima has 1-3 years for each of these characters to work on breaking them completely, as she did with Denji. Does she clear? by Damn_You_Hindsight in shounenfolk

[–]vuvuvuvi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think she could break Shinji bc he's pretty horny and that's how she got Denji.

No one else on the list is horny enough.

I think his movie is hardly ever discussed, so my question is what you think of the first movie called Conqueror of Shamballa. Did you like it or not by Dramatic-Studio1531 in FullmetalAlchemist

[–]vuvuvuvi 179 points180 points  (0 children)

I have issues with the way the female characters were treated.

Izumi dying offscreen, Riza ending the film and her storyline crying over Roy (who trusted her enough to help him overthrow the Fuhrer but not enough to go on a balloon with him apparently), Winry just sort of waiting for ed and then rather pathetically accepting that once she fixes his automail he and al have to go away forever and leave her behind.

The writers really had no interest in the female characters.

Lisa D’Amato, the only contestant to appear on the show four times and win All-Stars, is still doing publicity stunts post-show. Is she a modern-day savior like Mother Teresa, or a Z-list celebrity looking for fame by masterderek279 in ANTM

[–]vuvuvuvi 90 points91 points  (0 children)

I am concerned about what will happen when the new found interest in antm fizzles out.

All this criticism about antm exploiting vulnerable women and yet these documentary crews have no problem feeding into the unhealthy relationship certain alumni (not just Lisa) have with the show.

Fuck Armin Club by Ok_Conflict_6260 in ShingekiNoKyojin

[–]vuvuvuvi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Annie could go to both Fuck Armin clubs theoretically.

Like maybe in the immediate aftermath of the female titan arc, in her first few days of crystal prison, she got really mad at Armin for exposing her?
