This movie made me feel seen and words cannot describe the love I have for it. Still tried tho.

To anyone who hasn't seen it, please do.

honestly I don’t really think Mary was trying to “fix” Clark or “save” him she was a therapist and she was doing her job and how else are you supposed to respond when your client goes jack torrance mode like 8 levels deep into narnia. all these posts about how it’s so tragic to try and save someone who doesn’t want to be saved and it’s like. I don’t really think she even knew him that well like her whole relationship with him was “and how does that make you feel”

I think my favorite thing about the backrooms movie is how much it doesn't hold your hand and over explain things to you. you as an audience member have to figure stuff out on your own via context clues and your own thought process.

It's something I really love to see, because I really love it when a film actually trusts the audience to listen and pay attention to the film and actually figure things out.

The film never throws too many questions that it becomes hard to figure out, the movie doesn't overwhelm you with lore and questions (which is also great) but it gives you enough questions for you to start wondering about the backrooms and you should feel about it.

Iron Lung and Project Hail Mary as "men who persevere against impossible odds and find courage in the depths of despair"

Versus Obsession and Backrooms "men will willingly stay in a literal horror movie situation over confronting their mistakes and taking responsibility for their actions"

goddd I love biological horror. i love body horror. I love when the thing you’re fighting changes you and changes the world around you simply because that is what it does. I love when you have to face up against a force so huge and powerful that it can barely even be measured in human timescales. i love delving deeper and deeper into a mystery and finding that it’s always been there and it will always continue no matter what we do to try to stop it. i love when humans are insignificant. I love when you look in the mirror and it’s changed you in ways no one could have predicted. i love when it’s awe inspiring and surreal and beautiful.

i love horror that’s not malicious it simply exists because there is no reasoning with things like that just as you cannot convince the sun to rise on your command. I love when we’re reminded of our true scale in the grand scheme of things— subatomic particles on a dust speck floating through an infinite sea. i love it I love it i love it.

"In fact, when I finished it, I handed it to my wife, and I said, 'I think I just wrote something incomprehensible about four women wandering aimlessly on a hiking trail in North Florida. Could you please check for me?' She read it and thankfully gave it the stamp of approval and said it was actually a novel and actually made sense."

After a week to process (and a thousand different, wonderful posts explaining all the things that are wrong), I think it all comes down to one simple thing, for me.

Good Omens is a comedy. And what that Finale delivered us was a tragic ending.

In a basic, human, narrative sense, it went completely against what we had a right to expect and need from an ending. When I woke up a week ago, the one thing I was sure of was that I was going to see the characters I love be happy in the end; the entire storytelling history of humankind promised that. Instead, everything was destroyed.

[samwwise]

yeah they’re married and happy or whatever. but you know what the fucking problem is? that’s not even THEM. what the fuck.

[tumbld-out-of-my-bed]

Go3 spoilers

Yeah sure, Anthony and Asa got their happy ending... But my Aziraphale and Crowley did not...

What was all of it for...

[mwagneto]

you're genuinely trying to fucking tell me that crowley, who repeatedly begged aziraphale over and over and over to run away with him so they could be safe, and each time when aziraphale turned him down just chose to stay and die on earth instead (because there's no point to anything if aziraphale is gone), crowley who completely broke down when aziraphale was discorporated even though it was only his physical body, crowley who spent thousands of years showing up to save aziraphale in the strange little 5d chess of damsel and knight they'd been playing, would be alright with damning aziraphale to nonexistence. himself is one thing but you're fucking telling me that when offered a choice between the continuation of an imperfect world, or killing every single person in the universe, including aziraphale, he'd choose the latter? are you actually fucking serious?

[thedeepmiracleperfection]

Hey so remember how in Season 1 Adam decided that he wasn't Satan's son anymore and made it so that it was always that way but he and everyone at the air base still had their memory? And he became something not quite human but still mostly human? Why the fuck couldn't have that been their ending.

[church-of-lilith]

the gays were immortal and they STILL managed to bury them???

[unhingedchaosharbinger]

it kind of was the only thing that made me go 'i am safe to watch it they can do anything BUT kill them right?'

RIGHT???

[depraveddame]

I’m sorry but it’s so painfully fucking heteronormative that we got a shot of WEDDING RINGS but not one hug, not one kiss or drop of physical affection that it made my eyes bleed. Bury your gays, but make sure they lose their memories and their pasts first and most definitely don’t show ANY onscreen romance! And the idea that another kiss would just be akin to another F15 is some fucking homophobic bullshit. Unbelievable. We should not have to BEG for queer romance and happiness and I resent being made to feel like I should feel grateful for this travesty of a finale
