Goddammit! First, Lost in Austen makes me feel sympathy for Wickham. Now The Other Bennet Sister makes me like Collins too. Well at least Mrs Bennett remains five hundred shades of awful, there better be no P&P spin-off that makes me feel sorry for her!!!

LOL! The Other Bennet sister is on my list of stuff to watch, OP. I enjoyed the book, too.

That's Mr Collins in the middle? He's described as being tall and heavy-looking in P&P, I think. Hm, a bit of a casting choice?

I'm really enjoying the series, but I'm only halfway through!

I think the point of both Mr and Mrs Bennet is that they weren't always awful but ended up that way through poor choices, so a prequel could make me feel sympathy for them without altering my feelings towards them in canon.

Nick and Gatsby are my literary OTP, in the pages and on the screen.

Tobey Maguire has never really done anything for me - I find him a decent to good actor, but I have zero attraction to any of his characters (it's not just his appearance, it's also his mannerisms and the way he plays them). However, I could get on board with young Sam Waterston and Robert Redford versions of the characters.

Between the Bayonetta sequel controversy and the Blue Reflection sequel controversy, maybe lesbians need to learn that games marketed to horny teenage boys will always let them down.

Not into either fandom. Actually curious what's the controversy. Is it something about main woman characters getting into het relationships or something?

I'm curious as well. Though I am familiar with Bayonetta from a distance I could easily see what type of game it would be and kept that distance, lol.

The real moral of the story in Invincible is "Girl, you can't fix him. Stop marrying fixer uppers". Oh, Debbie, you shoulda stopped trying years ago. Long before the events of Season One.

I hate that if the first Star Wars movie was made today, the scene of Darth Vader escaping the Death Star destruction would be an "End/Mid Credits Scene" instead of being in the movie proper. The need to hold stuff back for the credits ruins the flow of so many movies.

I'm honestly over end credits scenes in general, especially at the theatre. I already sat through an assload of ads at the beginning, and I have to pee.

I get what you're saying, but I would honestly have been okay with that, I think. I loved how they did it for Spider-Man Far From Home. Like, you're relaxing because things have been fixed in the denouement of the movie and then the stinger comes and lets you know that, no, things are not alright and your mind goes to all the possibilities and then you're hyped up for the next one. And yeah, that can happen without putting it mid or end credits, but that true pause can really up the intensity, for me anyway.

I am sick to death of this dude. The fanon version of him is very moe and OOC, and fans' preference for "cute G'raha" has bled into his official writing. And since he's the most popular character in the game, the devs assume that the player loves him, so he's always up my ass.

B!S: I wouldn't mind as much if either of my faves were alive, or if one of them hadn't got done REAL dirty by the writers. It's tough to be happy for others' feasts when your own dinner comes out burnt. :(

B!S2: It's actually a red flag to me if someone legit, whole-heartedly hates him. Like, what's your problem? (My feelings about the flanderized catboy are complicated.)
