that episode where a team with only one girl and a lot of guys suddenly has another girl join the team, and everyone loves her for some reason (usually implied to be that shes pretty), and the original girl immediately hates and cannot stand second girl
are you kidding
whenever i have been in an all boy group the appearance of anything even remotely a girl has been an utter relief and total joy are you kidding
My entire professional life has been in teams surrounded by men. Like, literally, there have been repeated times in my life when I was the only woman on that floor.
On two separate occasions in my working life, I’ve joined a team and the other woman already on that team has later come over to talk quietly to me and say something to the effect of “Thank god, another woman. I was so happy to find you were joining us.”.
I guess this is how you can tell a guy wrote the script and he had very little real world experience in the environment he’s writing. When you’re in an all-male team, the only other woman would have to be a straight out sociopath who casually poisoned people around her to make me hate her. And even if she was, I’d at least try four times before I gave up. Or maybe consider joining her (I mean she might have a reason for what she’s doing after all).
because the male fantasy is that all women are in competition with each other for their attention.
do you want to see a movie where you have no idea what is going on for the first forty-five minutes? jupiter ascending is the film for you! other highlights include:
a ten minute long spaceship fight with no context or purpose, which destroys a city. “no one will remember” channing tatum growls as they leave the city, as if youtube does not exist
“here’s a latke for you, bitch”
someone using a menstrual pad as a bandage by slapping the sticky part onto the wound, leaving the actual blood-absorbing part just kind of…waving around
actors chewing the scenery so hard i’m surprised beautifully over-constructed bits of space metal aren’t just falling out of their mouths
a man trying to shoot thousands of bees in the middle of a cornfield
a gun that makes dog noises. it barks. the gun barks.
oedipus complexes so beautifully twisted and terrible that you will spend half the movie mouthing “oh my god” to yourself
related to that, the climactic line of the movie is “i’m not your damn mother,” so take that as you will
a breathtakingly gorgeous and complex universe used as a background for a romance between woman and a man. granted, the man is a wolf angel. but still.
I CREATE LIVES……………….
[whispers] and destroy them
no i’m sorry i have to keep going
“bees can sense royalty”
mila kunis having the powerful realization partway through that she is a furry, an epiphany that changes her life
“i love dogs” she whispers, eyes wide
SPACE BUREAUCRACY. A MONTAGE THAT IS JUST SPACE BUREAUCRACY. THEY FILL OUT SPACE FORMS. IN SPACE.
“bees can sense royalty”
channing tatum, shirtless in the void of space
a room FILLED WITH CANDLES
soylent green nectar…….is…………….peeeeoplllle
“bees can sense royalty”
sean bean’s apparent daughter, who shows up onscreen for a minute and a half, leaves to get supplies for dinner, and never comes back
yeah sean bean is in this too i didn’t believe it either
“bees can sense royalty”
a space wedding. it’s just like an earth wedding. BUT IN SPACE
mila kunis’ character’s name is jupiter
yes i am dead serious about this
she spends most of the movie falling
they really should have called it “jupiter descending” because that’s all she does
“bees can sense royalty”
All that repetition of how bees can sense royalty, and you leave out the fact that the bees were an alarm system set up by Sean Bean, who is part bee.
Did you seriously leave out Channing Tatum’s flying rollerskates?
And I will love it to pieces until my dying day. It was every daydream I’d ever had and with gorgeous spaceships ridiculous plot and FLYING DINOSAURS.
-Eddie Redmayne with his tiddies out lounging around with quivering lips as he wheezes like he smokes ten packs a day and whispers “m o t h er” in ways that make everyone 100000% more uncomfortable,
personally i don’t understand any animosity between hufflepuffs and slytherins because they both share the trait of being unconditionally loyal to their friends. just so happens that the former will stay up all night helping their friends study for an exam and the latter will procure their friends a copy of the answers
