“Autism wasn’t a thing back in my day!”

Girl, what the hell was Brain and Allison from The Breakfast Club then??

My friend just said to me “do you think when Frodo woke up and saw Gandalf he thought he was dead?” And now I’m destroyed.

Showing people my favorite tv shows or movies is so awkward.

I’m sitting here bouncing on the balls of my feet in excitement trying not to spoil anything with fun facts and they’re semi interested looking at their phones every now and then.

Greif is so goofy. What do you mean I can’t watch this movie because there’s a song briefly in the background that I sang the day he died in a completely unrelated event?

I forgot about the ao3 maintenance today and it shut down in the middle of me reading a fan fiction.

Severance is so weird because I look at Irving and my brain immediately sees Jesus from The Big Lebowski

And then he gives the most amazing, heart wrenching monologue about love and memories.

Y’all want older gay people, the show Severance has John Turturro falling in love with Christopher Walken

Quick rant about movie etiquette, because I just got out of the theatre and I’m kinda pissed.

I was so exited to see this film on the big screen, and this large family sits a few seats down. Let’s go through the list.

- one man falls asleep and lets out a snore during the final shot of the movie.

- one guy is talking during the entire first half of the movie, presumably on a phone call, but I can’t be sure

- someone is getting random notifications and did not mute their phone. A few alarms go off as well.

- one of the kids found out his seat squeaked and messed with that for a solid 15 minutes. I get it’s hard to control kids, but one shush would have been fine.

- a lady is on her phone for the entire movie. She accidentally clicked on a video or something during a really dramatic moment. She muted her phone and than kept scrolling

- all this summed up with the mess that they left at their seats.

What the hell happened?? I miss being able to go to the the theatres and have a chill experience?

I am so obsessed with the parallels between Merry and Pippin.

Pippin pledges himself to Denethor because he feels like he has to, like he owes him. Merry pledges himself to Theoden because he is a god and respectful king.

Pippin disobeys Denethor to protect Faramir, because he is dangerous. Merry disobeys Theoden to protect him, because he wants to fight.

I love well written parallels :)

Genuinely, as someone who has never had easy access to a movie theatre, War of the Rohirrim is the first Lotr movie I’ve ever seen on the big screen. It was amazing. I’m probably overhyping the movie in my head, I completely understand that, but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of being able to see it.
