My Fav Poker Scene Ever!!

One of the most iconic movie scenes in poker is from the movie "Rounders" (1998), where the main character, played by Matt Damon, faces off against the legendary poker player, played by John Malkovich. In the scene, Malkovich's character, "Teddy KGB," is known for his ability to read his opponents and manipulate them through his intense stare and speech mannerisms.

The pivotal moment in the scene comes when Damon's character makes a bold bet, putting all his chips on the line. Malkovich's character, known for his conservative play style, deliberates for a long time before ultimately deciding to call. The tension builds as the cards are revealed, and Damon's character reveals that he has a straight flush, which beats Malkovich's character's full house.

The scene is notable for its portrayal of the psychological elements of poker, with both characters trying to outwit and outmaneuver each other with their words and actions. It has become a classic moment in poker cinema and is often cited as one of the best poker scenes ever put to film.

tired of people who want pjo movie references in the disney+ show. "logan lerman should've been-" i don’t care. "poker face in the casino-" actually i hope ms. gaga keeps her entire discography miles away from it. i don't care move on

[notseaweedbrain]

OK we all know how poker face is the iconic Percy Jackson song…. And we all know how Rick hates the movies…. Here’s how I say we fix that.

WE PLAY THE ERIC CARTMAN VERSION OF POKER FACE

It’s a perfect middle ground… separate yourself from the movies, but give fans what they deserve

major hater moment alert

it’s like 4am rn and i’m so sleepy bht csnf fall asleep so maybe this won’t make a lot of sense but i’ve finally finished watching the pjo show and i think some of u need to grow the fuck up 😭😭 like i’m sorry but comparing and contrasting the shows to the books soo fucking closely is so crazy to me like i know some of yall are working 9-5 office jobs so there’s no way u should be this pressed about the symbolism in a kids show. it’s nostalgic obviously but at the same time it will never be that serious. i’m guilty of that too tho don’t get me wrong bc i had made such a long rant abt Book Gabe vs Show Gabe before i realized i truly do not give a fuck. like. me resonating more with Book Percy’s relationship with his Book Family has absolutely no fucking effect on Current Me watching the show. who cares. i know i can get lowkey insecure at times about having “childish” interests but i want to make it very clear that im not dunking on ppl who dislike the show. like, i think there were plenty of things to dislike. i just don’t think that they’re worth getting worked up over, especially if you’re an adult person with adult responsibilities, because isn’t enjoying the whimsy of this show more important than writing a whole deep dive of why you hate this show with a passion? which i know is hypocritical coming from me but if im complaining about a show you better believe its bc i love it and am obsessed with it, not because im hate-watching it and actively looking for things to get mad about. i really don’t get it like if the show really bothers you that much just turn it off. like girl..

Goncharov is so good because technically there is found family, but all that happened before this (they grew up as street urchins), so now you're left with a group of "old friends" who are like "yeah I found my chosen family (and then we joined a crime family). We're close but you know what? Fuck them." And then everything falls apart in the most tragic way possible. Like don't forsake the magic of friendship besties or it will forsake you.

Y’all, what if instead of getting poker face by Lady Gaga, we get a fully acapella version of it with all parts sang by Lin Manuel Miranda. It would be a horrible masterpiece that would haunt my dreams.

People that want Leah and Walker to dye their hair have never actually touch their hair and it shows , I love dying my hair but I understand the amount of works it is and the fact you hair never truly comes back to the way it was and these are kids ! Why would you even think about wanting to make them do one potentially damaging to their hair when we actually have stories of young kids actors that as adults say they regretted doing stuff to their hair and also walkers curls and Leah braids are so beautiful, when she had the ponytail and pigtails there wasn’t a more annabeth look than that

Honestly tho, I don't think people realize that if they dyed Walker's hair, they would've probably be dyeing it every 2 weeks because of how light his hair is and how the roots would look, and that would be so damaging to his hair in the long run. And people are arguing that since Leah already had braids in, they could've used blonde braiding hair to make her blonde, but there is no point in making that, her braids following her natural color look perfect with the character. She embodies Annabeth so beautifully, her hair color should be the least of people's worries. And the way there are people who are mad they didn't put her in grey contacts too, like, do yall not realize you're actively telling a CHILD she shouldn't look the way she does??????? I knew I would be wanting to fight strangers on the internet over the trio but OH MY GOD

Hiiiii❤️ I idk if this is a Drabble or a headcaon but here I go anyways😅 . Hear some context So you don’t think I’m some weirdo. So in the 2017 movie called the babysitter and this character Allison got shot in the b00b and she “omg he shot me in the b00b what kind of dçk shots a girl in the b00bs” (funny scene) so basically fem!reader with platonic!taskforce141. And there on a mission and suddenly they hear the same line on their coms and they’re like 😳

(feel free to ignore)

A/N: LMAO - I had to look up the scene for this as a reference. Just picturing Price's paternal disappointment when he realizes his team acts like a bunch of children. Sorry, this is rlly short!

Summary: Your attempt at comedic relief sets off a chain reaction of immaturity.

Compared to some of the other operations you’d done with them, this was a piece of cake. A simple infiltrate and exfil mission where you’d be clearing house in one of Hassan’s safehouses—a mere breadcrumb leading to the man himself.

Price thought it would go smoothest if everyone split up, but to keep within shouting distance. It was only a small facility, after all.

Being ambushed? Shot? That was not something you saw in the cards for today.

Luckily, you got a bullet in him before he had a chance to do worse. But here you were, slumped against the wall with all the air knocked out of your lungs.

“Heard the shots, Sergeant. You broken?”

Captain Price’s voice crackled through near instantly, the second he had pulled the trigger on you. Though it took a few seconds, you managed to recuperate, and asses the room in front of you. The man who shot you K.I.A, and you very fortunate.

You peered down at your chest; indeed not broken, but injured. The vest had absorbed the shot, causing a relieved sigh to escape your lips. Obviously, if you really had a bullet in your chest, you wouldn’t just be sitting there—but the adrenaline of escaping death eliminated any rationality.

You unbuttoned the first few buttons on your shirt, seeing a welt on your breast as if the man had his gaze set on them when he pulled the trigger. Still, with your hand on the button of your radio, you finally gave some sort of answer.

“Bastard shot me in the boobs.” It was a mumble, but there was no way in hell they didn’t hear that.

As you winced, you seemed to forget that the entire team was on the other line—probably way more concerned with your life than the health of your tits. “What kind of dick shoots a girl in the boobs?” You asked rhetorically, despite the astonished silence on the other line.

“You were shot in your…?” Gaz was the first to speak up, his tone practically painting the picture of his signature squint.

Before the next voice chimed in, you could swear you heard whoever it was stifling a laugh. “Thanks for that.” Soap chimed in, accent crackling against the static. His smirk was visible even if his words; the natural flirt in him coming out no matter what.

Ghost had remained silent, probably muting his comms so he didn’t have to listen to this. And Price? Oh, Price… He’s got his head in his hands with pure disappointment. How did this status update turn so unprofessional, so quickly?

“Wait, let me get this straight,” Soap comes in again, a smug sneer on his face. “He shot you on the—”

“Keep it tactical, Sergeant.” Price blurts, interrupting the immature banter daring to be further set in motion. He was fighting every urge to crack a smile at the pure ridiculousness, but his poker face and stern tone prevented it.

“Tactical or not, John, it’s a tough break.” Laswell comes in, your only saving grace against Price’s father-like disappointment. She was the last superior of yours you’d expected to find it humorous, but she did, nonetheless.

This would definitely be the source material for the next HR meeting, you could see it now.

So I am on my third rewatch of Twisters. So here are some of my own personal headcanons and theories for the movie and some parallels that may add weight to those theories.

1. The original 5 friend group dynamic: Jeb and Praveen have known each other for years and are each others best friend. Javi and Kate are the dynamic duo (basing it on the fact that they were the only ones to do the handshake together). And Addy is everyone's little sister. Her and Kate were extremely close, but in a different way than her friendship with Javi.

2. Tyler Owens is the nephew of Bill and Jo on Bill's side (As we knew Jo didn't have any sibling). He spent his summers with them as a kid, and then as a teenager, he moved in with them full time. He started chasing with them around then, too. He even pays homage to that as he is driving a newer model of Bill's red dodge ram.

3. Boone and Lily have something going on. The way Boone screams her name as she gets picked up by the wind. And their personalities are perfect together. You can't convince me otherwise.

4. Kate and Tyler kiss in the truck after the chase they go on straight from the airport at the end of the movie. (Refer to point 8)

5. Kate puts in her resignation almost immediately, and Javi cuts ties with Riggs and Scott. The wranglers and Kate join StormPAR. Kate and Tyler spend the off-season working with Javi while the others do their own gigs, but during the storm season, they are all chasing and gathering data.

6. Cathy is so encouraging of her daughter because she's been through loss before. They called her Mrs. Carter, meaning she was married. Kate's dad died when Kate was a little girl. Cathy had to learn how to navigate being a young mom and tending a farm on her own. But she also knows that it could stop her from living her life. So she didn't. She grieved, and she learned to live with the grief and still do what she loves. It's why she is so encouraging of Kate getting back out there.

7. Kate stayed in OK for another couple of weeks after the tornado (neither her nor Tyler appeared injured in the final scene, and the truck looks great, all things considered, so clearly they had time tp heal and fix the truck.) They all were forcibly invited back to the farm by Cathy after Tyler and the wranglers went to drop Kate off post El Reno. Cathy took one look at Tyler and forced him in the house. Kate gave herself a headache from laughing so hard. She was then sent inside alongside him. Cathy made everyone stay for as long as they needed. But she did, however, get some free labour from it. It was an unspoken agreement that Kate's was now home base.

8. By the credit scenes, Kate and Tyler are together. Their first kiss was immediately after the two of them went chasing from the airport. Something about their adrenaline rushing, and it being just the two of them. It was electric. It was immediate. It just happened, and when they pulled back, they both started laughing. It reminded him of the first time they chased together, just the two of them. Kate delayed her flight for another two days. She was back home within the month. Tyler quickly realised he would have to start bribing Boone afterwards on the days he and Kate went out.

9. Kate and Boone will play card games at night to see who gets shotgun the next day, when Boone isn't riding with Lily, of course. Turns out, Kate's damn good at playing poker. On the rare occasion that Kate drives, Boone automatically hops in the back of the truck. He won't tell anyone, but he loves it when she drives. She gets this manic energy about her in the drivers seat and his adrenaline always ends up pumping. Tyler loves it, too, but he has no qualms verbalizing his affections toward her.

10. Tyler has nightmares now. Of watching Kate drive into the tornado. Of finding her body, discarded and broken by his truck. Of her slipping through his fingers during a storm. He wakes up sweating and panicking. And it's only when he sees her that he can calm himself down. The two of them, those first two weeks after El Reno, would spend hours each night, sitting in the barn, going over formulas. Or sitting outside on the tree swing, talking until they were both too exhausted to have any nightmares. When she left to go back to New York, she wasn't particularly surprised when one night she awoke to her phone ringing, Tyler close to having a full blown panic attack as he tried and failed to reassure himself that she was okay without her help. They would always call each other before bed after that, usually falling asleep over facetime.
