#movie reactions

[tooselfaware]

Been watching movie reactions and now I'm sad again that I can't find The Darkest Minds (aside from trailer reactions).

[aangarchy]

A list of my favorite reaction channels on youtube! Not all of them are big channels, and it really is a mix of all kinds of people. Some also don't really do reactions but commentaries (aka they've seen it before and will analyse it or do a singalong, it feels like ur watching a movie with a friend basically. I'll clarify who does what)

OBG reacts (first time reactions)

Nikki and Steven react (first time reactions)

The Normies (first time reactions but sometimes movie commentary)

Blind Wave (first time reaction + in depth discussion)

Trin Lovell (50/50 of first time reactions and commentary)

Brad Evans (first time reactions, and occasionally commentary)

Welchy (first time reactions)

Aaron and Jo (first time reactions, tv show commentary of reality shows)

Rival Reacts (mainly subscribed to him bc he's dutch, like that's a homie, he does first fime reactions)

The Pink Popcast (50/50 mix of both)

Dylan Is In Trouble (is now mostly active on his other channel Ooga Booga, but mostly commentary and occasionally a first time reaction)

ItsAPrimate (first time reaction)

Harry Allen (first time reaction, mostly to lgbt media)

Heroes Reforged (first time reaction)

White Noise Reacts (first time reactions, have a dedicated animation reactions channel)

Natalie Gold (first time reaction)

Nics&Nacs (50/50 mix of both)

Pretty Much It (commentary)

Rebecca Rose (first time reactions)

Ricky Reviews (first time reactions, also mostly to lgbt media)

SebScreen (first time reactions, but with him i sometimes truly do wonder if he really hasn't seen it before. He's funny either way)

Sophia Phan (commentary and sing alongs)

Stephanie Best (commentary and sometimes first time reactions)

The Movie Budz (commentary)

There's others that I check out occasionally but i'm not subscribed to, like Movies In Depth, ItsAng, Thor Reacts and TimotheeReacts. There have also been people that i was subscribed to in the past but unsubscribed to bc they either got boring or said something offensive, but i forgot their names lmao

[choppedcowboydinosaur]

I’ve noticed that there are 4 types of reactions to the Barbie movie.

1.  Upper, middle-class, white women who love the film and think it’s a feminist masterpiece. They think men are too stupid to understand the film.

2. Conservative, anti-sjw people who hate it because they think it’s woke, man-hating, feminist propaganda.

3. Guys who unironically like the movie because they like Ken.

4. Women who hate #3 because Ken is apparently the villain of the movie. So, these women get upset that some guys identify with Ken.

Mind you I haven’t seen the movie yet, but I find the reactions interesting to say the least.

[wench-and-jezebel]

Sherlock Holmes (2009) Reaction:

Jezebel (@typicalopposite) reacts [with occasional asides by Wench (@scripted-downfall)]

[This reaction is sponsored by the Actual Snack Food I'm eating: I has a soda.  Be proud!]  Same!  Mtn dew!  It’s been a while since I had one… I’ve already drank three ☠️

Oh suspenseful music

RDJ!  He loooks so different without facial hair  [He does indeed]

Oooooof.  Ouch  [That was a very... awkwardly placed shimmy down to the knee tho… Buddy, why you getting that close?]

So like Sherlock’s thing. Is he’s really smart? Orrrr  [Ma'am-  Do you not know Sherlock Holmes?]  I know he’s a detective?  [Okay, hold up.  Pause… This is kinda a crucial bit of information ☠️]  Ok  [His thing is being observant.  And yes, being well versed in a lot of subjects, but-]  Soooo like shawn  [Yes, like Shawn.  Pretty much exactly like Shawn, but a little more drug addicted and differently fixated (e.g. not pop culture, and more science in general)]

Is that John?  [Yes]  Well.  I’m already seeing some Things.  “I like the hat”  “Thanks just picked it up”  [Also… "I thought I left the stove on" "You did"  DOMESTIC BLISS AT ITS FINEST]

Oh shit Watson got moves too  [Ma'am, Watson was in the military aksldjf]  Idk why I thought he just stood to the side like an npc  [Nah, he was an army doctor]

☠️☠️☠️☠️  [Oop-]  “Your colleague… won’t be moving with you”  [*simultaneously* "Your colleague?  Won't be moving with you, will he?"  Hmmmmm, why you asking, bud?]  ☠️☠️☠️ SBC

Aw man Watsons leaving.  Well, “Leaving”  [No wonder Holmes is moody]  Does he tho?  [I say nothing]

He’s like I must make myself look mentally unstable…. Oh I always do… damn

[Men will get on their knees in front of their best bro buds]  Detective bros? Crime solving bros?  Mystery bros?  Hmmm…   [Baker Street Bros]  YESSSSS OMG

[Poor pup :(]

Eww, not the woman  [Holmes not wanting to meet his best bro bud's girlfriend/fiancee]  

“You wear a jacket”  Why did you think I wouldn’t like this? ☠️☠️  [I said I couldn't remember it well aslkdfjalskdfj  It's been years since I saw it.  I said I wasn't going to stake my rep on it]

The smile.  THE SMILEEEE!  I LOVE RDJ

YESSSS

Oooof… Oh, let me fangirl over my love- your fiancé

Oh, ma’am… You shouldn’t ask questions you don’t want the answer to

I THOUGHT HE SAID “YOU’RE STUPID”  [alskdjf nope]  BUT HES MAKING HER FEEL IT ANYWAY  [I mean, she did ask]  OOOOOOOOOOF

WELL DAMN, HE AIN'T EVEN PHASED [That's another thing about Holmes... He does tend to be a bit arrogant.]  

What is happening?!?  [Holmes boxes]  Victorian-era boxing

Oooooof, sweeet lord.  This is hurting me

They are like… well damn

[Did I mention the drug-addicted bit?  He used morphine and cocaine in the books.]

Then you’d be a bastad.

Oh look: Bastad.

That looks unsafe

[Watson sulking]  Well, damn.  [Boyfriends bickering]  ☠️☠️☠️  Like every single line, I’m like.  Yep.  I be seeing the it.  [Yeahhhh me too.  Like I said, it was years ago that I watched this last, but now.  Now I see it.]  If I didn’t know there was hella fanfics I would already be checking, but I’ve seeeeeen it.  [I think most are about Sherlock tho.  Not Sherlock Holmes (2009)]  A lot I’ve read are for this one [Oh.  Well okay then.  I yield to your expertise.  I haven't looked ☠️]  I seek them

[Bruh, even this interaction verges on.  Things.]

Oh shit.  The way he slid into those bars

Buddy he has no sane thoughts in his head  [Which buddy?]  The bad guy

Ack.  Sweet lord

["Death is only the beginning"  They plagiarized The Mummy aslkdjfa;lskdfj]  Oh damn

Or is it 👀👀

Rachael McAdams!!!  I love her!

[This is a slightly less malicious BBC Musketeers Athos/Milady, btw]

Oh, burn: “And you’re between husbands”

[Actually, ma'am... I wouldn't put it passed you to poison an envelope, ngl.  Milady-coded.]

Ohhh Watson being pouty and jealous now  [What else is a guy's bud bro bestie to do?]

The screech  [Matt Meese-sounding mf]  Oh ☠️😂😂😂  

I’m ded.  He fell into the building

[WATSON]  “It’s nothing to do with me”  [LITERALLY DOING THE NAIL THING]

[“‘You’ means ‘us’”  "’You’ means ‘you’"  Watson, don't pretend]

Ackkk Marryyyy 😤😤 the name just keeps a bitchy reputation  (I say in defense of Sherlock being bitchy)

That’s me  [Lestrade?]  Yup.  Can’t pronounce the big word AND too scared to do my job

Sweet lord… Blech

[Bruh.  Y'all are saying the same thing at the same time.  That's kinda Subtext.]  😂😂😂😂

[Supernatural, you say?]  👀👀👀 Carry on my wayward soooooon

["Scratches around the keyhole"  *PTSD flashback from BBC Sherlock starts*]

Oooop- “Brothersss”  She means Bros

["Give her my best"  *Hates himself for saying it*  That's some right-fine pining, my dude]  ☠️☠️☠️☠️  [AND HIS SMILE WHEN JOHN CAME BACK???]  But.  But marryyy 😩😂😂😂  I love it

Oh mah gawd.  The poor frog

[I love their outfitssss.  Btw, this is how I dress.  Well, half the time.  The other half of the time, it's cargo pants and flannel as;ldkfj]  ‘Cause you were born in the wrong time  [This... Is true]

Moood

Thasss a big man

The screeeeeech

[Ring go bye-bye.  That feels symbolic]  ☠️☠️  [He does marry her before the next film, though, iirc]  Ahhh I see

“Brother”  [Sir didn't even remember the important ring he just bought in favor of running after his best bro bud]

Welp, he’s asleep.

Bitch better wake up

[Um.  Bud.  Buds.  That was–  Ya know what.  Okay.]  aka if you go we both go

Oh, Watson  ["Having been talked into going with you" Bro, you went back without a single bit of coercion] Don’t do the “I just risked my life for you then bitch you out for it” thing

[Y'ALL.  Y'ALLLLL]  “Steal your clothes,” huh?  [OUR DOG?!?!?]  Yep.  I can hear the fic ideas pinging off.  Like those troll hug bracelets…If you haven’t seen the movie you won’t get that  [alksdjf nope, I haven’t]

Like, how she was smiling?  Like… Bruh.  Ew

[Also, Watson acting like he's a paragon of relationships without Holmes’ interference when he just lost the ring he'd only just bought]  Right?!

Not me sitting here hoping this has the sappy ass (Sherlock) “fine, you want me to go away, I will”… (Watson) *miserable, comes crawling back*  [I KNOW.  SAME.  AND I CAN'T REMEMBER IF IT DOES OR NOT.]  If it doesn’t the fandom will ☠️  If the fandom doesn’t gimme 30 mins and it will 😭😂☠️  [I, personally, am a fan of this conversation being followed by serious personal harm to person 1.  Angsty though it is... Well, I guess that's on-brand]  I was gonna say that but my thumbs were cramping uppppp  [as;lkdjf]  Look at us being sadistic.  But with a happy end.  [As I said... on-brand]

Le gasp!  His son!

SOMEONE LET HIM PICK A LOCK!  SHEESH!

["I hit a dead end... and my bud bro bestie is fighting with me :("]  Now I sad

“Oh, dear” ☠️☠️

[Once again: the lighter, (only slightly) less toxic, less murder-couple-y Athos/Milady.  And the "less," btw, is by a smidgeon, not a bunch]

He ded

Damn… Jealous.  That’s a nice tub.  [You're about to not be jealous]  Ooooop ghost son’s a coming

[As I said, much less jealous… He just drowned/boiled to death in it.]  Blech.  BLECHHHH

So is this supernatural like… for real?  [Whyyyy do you think I'd tell you this?]

Poor maid

Is he like wigged out by dead people?  Sherlock, I mean?  [What do you mean by wigged out?  I thought I knew what you meant but don't see the context]  ‘Cause at the first one it was like he couldn’t look at the body. Then it seemed like he was weird when he walked in this room.  But he stopped this time.  [No, he's just observing.  And also hiding shit from the cops.]  Fair

I’m still feeling some type of way about her getting John out and not Sherlock too… and John just left.  The dishonor!  [I KNOW]

["Thanks for that, by the way"  John, give a bit more than that]  Dishonorrrr.  Hmph, and it’s a movie so any divorce arc we get is gonna be short-lived.  [That's the plot of this film: Baker Street Bros solve a case While Divorcing]  ☠️☠️☠️☠️  [Go to Google: that's the blurb that comes up]  I bet you if I typed that into google there’s a fic  [With a worse ship name]

["Not us."  "Right, of course."  Ummmmm Byler Rain Scene-coded???  "What did you think?  That we were never gonna get fiancees?  That we were just gonna sit in our flat all day and solve crimes for the rest of our lives?"  "Yeah.  I guess I did."]  ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

😂😂😂  [Bad guy did the swoop again]

Nooo.  Noooooo.  I’m ded.  He fucking shot in circles and used all his bullets

Oh shit

OH SHIT  [GAH DAMMIT LET HIM PICK A LOCK]  OH SHIT OH SHIT  [He still hasn't been able to :(]  This is like a fuckign saw movie

["Don't get excited… because I'm taking off your belt"]

Sweeet lord

[I love her outfittttt.  Once again: that's how I dress alksdjflsakj]

He got to pick one  [He did!]

[Also, why does he look so uncomfortable when she hugged him alksdjf]  I KNOW

Oh shit

[Oh yeah.  Watch this.  I do remember this one, actually.  I remarked on this one even back when I first watched]  Ooooooof

OOOOOF

I LOVE THIS COP  [Also, he couldn't get Holmes to focus unless he confirmed Watson was alive elkasdjf;lkdsajf]

I KNOWWWW  😭😭😭

Ack bitchy lady lol

Run, Sherlock!  She’s onto you!  [She's actually being frustratingly not bad, ngl]  Hmmmph.  She just has a bitchy face, though.  Like, she squints menacingly when she talks.

[But also.  Buddy obsessing over the case because Now It's Personal]  I KNOWWW 😭😭☹️

[Bruh, it's Howl's Moving Castle.  House boutta move]  Now he has to eat a star

Sir.  [...]  Well, then.  [Cas: “You look terrible.”  Dean: “You know, it wouldn’t kill you to lie every now and again” vs. Watson: “You look gorgeous”  Sherlock: “Somehow, I knew you wouldn’t leave.”  It’s the same scene.]  😭😭😭😭

A snek

I keep wondering why he keeps talking like this. (Like oh he’s being funny) but no. No that’s just how they talk ☠️☠️☠️☠️  [Yup]

‘Ello, ‘ello, ‘ello  [I've heard that somewhere before]  I think the new angel in GOmens watched Sherlock Holmes  [THAT'S WHERE]

Oh shit

[HOLMES GOT TO PICK ANOTHER LOCK]  You go buddy!

😂😂😂😂  He said soldier boy

[He.  he did not get to pick the lock apparently]  Oh noooo  [He had the key]  For shame

Shoot him.  Now please

[I love her vestttttt]

Oop- Lorge guy is back

[Teamwork makes the dreamwork]  😂😂😂

This man and just easily breaking bonesss

“Course I can.” Buddy. He is quite big. You sure

We know, John, we know.

Noooooo.  Nope.  That’s where I forfeit the deal I had with scary mystery man.  Fuck that.

Ooooooof  [A fitting irony, that]  Right?!

[This is a cliffhanger for the second film, btw.  Which we should watch... tomorrow]  YESSS

AWWW he’s leaving  [:(]  Poor Sherlock

[BRUH HE GAVE-  HE GAVE IRENE'S PENDANT TO HIS BEST BRO BUD FOR AN ENGAGEMENT RING?]  Le gasp

Wot.  WOT.  ["MY TONGUE IS GOING; I'LL BE NO USE TO YOU AT ALL"  CONTEXT?  WHAT CONTEXT?]  ☠️☠️☠️

["Our dog"]

Oooop. We’re there.  Being able to control anything with the touch of a button?  It’s the future.

– – – 

Jezebel: AHHHH!  New ship unlocked!  Well, it was already unlocked, but now it’s fully activated

Wench: Congratulations, my dear :)

Jezebel: Ok so movie end point... as was expected I love it and I definitely want to watch the second tomorrow 😁😁😁😁 I loveeeee RDJ so I figured I would too! 😂😂 but like my husband said when I asked, there’s not many movies I don’t like.  I’m very easily pleased lol.

Wench: We’ll have to do it tomorrow, then, after my work’s done :)

Jezebel: Hmpppphhh Maryyyy 😤😤 and I don’t even really have a reason to not like her minus her name is just attached to bitchy women… ok, that’s a lie, she’s bitchy too! 😂😂😂😂  Not, like, god awful.  But.. it’s the eyes

Wench: Ma'am!  Problem child.

Jezebel: But aside from all this. The main reason we are here… Sherlock and Watson… are…  Welp they are in love obviously.  Like. Duh.  You do not act like that with just a friend.  I see what the hype is about and if the blatant chemistry- er- “subtext” is there in the show too. Then yeahhhhh it just is not deniable

Wench: I.  May have just tuned out, my deepest apologies.  I got distracted.  By The Musketeers.  I’m making you watch it.  BUT.  Anyway… fair!  And other movie thoughts?  (I don't really have much to add... I've seen it before enough that it's just kinda.  There. Also, is hella late and my brain be unhelpful rn.)

Jezebel: I 👀 I can’t think of any.

Wench: Ma'am, you condensed the entire plot to the ship and bitchiness

Jezebel: Welp…. Help! Ask me about something cause my mind is panic erasing as we speak

Wench: … The bad guy?  The plot?  The acting?  literally anything??????

Jezebel: Okayyyy!  So The bad guy looks just fucking like Stanley Tucci! But it’s not and as soon as I saw who he was I remembered in another movie he is in I thought he was Stanley Tucci again lol. But this guy actually has been in a lot more big movies!  

Wench: alskdfj

Jezebel: The acting? Ma’am! How dare you! The acting was :Chef_Kiss: spectacular. Period. 😂

Wench: Hmph.  You said to ask stuff.  It's not like you'd answered that before.

Jezebel: The plot. To be honest I kept getting lost in them flirting and then trying to get my thumbs to type fast enough I was confused for a bit about what was even happening in the plot. Past there’s a bad guy who was executed but didn’t die, or maybe he did but then came back they don’t know. And he is killing people ☠️☠️ but I got it all now! 😂😂

Wench: …

Jezebel: Shush!  I gotta say tho… I love movies set in the past that have like some hyper advanced technology. That’s so simple to us now!

Wench: Yeah, that’s fair :) 

Jezebel: And… Okay, now idk what else to say 😭😭

Wench: Nor I; perks of me running on very little sleep… This has been the most boring Wench half of the reaction in the history of Wench and Jezebel, but it's fineeeee.  

Jezebel: 😂😂😂😂

Wench: It'll pick up for tomorrow... Sequel then?

Jezebel: YES!

Wench: Aight… til then :)

“They gave me runway in this film. There’s one monologue in there. I can’t tell you the details of it. I say more words in that monologue than I said in an entire movie once as Wolverine. But there are sides of the character that I’ve been scratching at for 24 years […] There is stuff in this movie where I was like, ‘This is the thing I’ve been trying to get out’ and I feel so excited about it.”

— Hugh Jackman talking about Logan in Deadpool & Wolverine (x)

[tyanis]

Kinda feel like there's some untapped meme/reaction image potential from old horror movie trailers...

[chloesimaginationthings]

What if Mike and Jeremiah are the guards in FNAF 2..

[nerdby]

If anyone out there is looking to get into or back into horror movies, but is nervous I highly recommend this dude's videos on YouTube. He is a movie reactor and his horror movie reactions are always hilarious.

[withered-rose-unbreakable-lotus]

What should I react to, next?

Posting it here too in case sb likes movie reactions and wants to share an opinion on what I could react to next:

The options the link takes you to are these:

[emmacrb]

Movies I watched in 2023

I remember doing this in 2020 and I guess I'm still doing it now.

Carry On Up the Jungle (seen bits of it before) Carry On Camping (seen bits of it before maybe?) Carry On Matron (for the first time) Carry On Loving (seen bits of it before?) Carry On Dick (for the first time) Carry On Up the Khyber (for the first time I think) Carry On Screaming (for the first time) Carry On Abroad (for the first time) Carry On Henry (for the first time) (Wallace and Gromit The Wrong Trousers if that counts?) Sailor Moon S the movie (for the first time) Sailor Moon Super S the movie (for the first time) (Angelina Ballerina TV specials if they count?) Spongebob Sponge Out of Water Carry On Nurse (for the first time) (The Raccoons TV specials including The Lost Star if they count?) Madagascar (Spongebob musical if that counts?) Madagascar 2 (might have seen bits of it before?) Madagascar 3 (might have seen bits of it before?) The Nightmare Before Christmas (for the first time) Planet of the Apes (for the first time) Close Encounters of the Third Kind (for the first time) Twilight (for the first time) (EastEnders Last Tango in Walford if that counts?) (Carry On Christmas specials if they count?) (Little Britain Live if that counts?) Carry On Doctor (for the first time) (There was also Spongebob Truth or Square if that counts?)

(Watched full length movie reactions to: Robin Hood (bad audio), Moana, Peter Pan, A Bug's Life, The Aristocats, Lady & the Tramp, MLP Equestria Girls, MLP Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks, MLP Equestria Girls: Friendship Games, MLP Equestria Girls: Legend of Everfree)

There's some stuff where I wasn't sure whether they counted as movies or not like TV specials & stuff- Spongebob musical, Little Britain Live, an EastEnders thing, and one of the Wallace & Gromit short films. It's been a shit year for me. My friend died earlier this year and I didn't really feel like watching anything sometimes especially horrors (even though she liked horror). The Wallace & Gromit one I actually watched with my family the day she died & I didn't even know.

[mikethemovieguy]

Movie Reaction: DEAR DAVID

Yoooooo DEAR DAVID is based on true events. 😎 Watch the Official Horror Trailer for DEAR DAVID WHAT DID I THINK OF DEAR DAVID? I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY liked this movie. Do I think you’ll like it? I don’t know…all I can say is…I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY liked DEAR DAVID. Honestly – if it wouldn’t have been for ONE simple little part – I don’t want to spoil it but – – it’s at the very end – –…

(begin flashback to Wench's Discord conversation/reaction to RWaRB, the book!)

– – – 

W: The turkeys ☠️ wtf are they being pardoned for??? I'm so confused

J: You didn’t know about this!?!?

W: No??

J: It’s a stupid af tradition the president pardons a Turkey on thanksgiving

W: ... wot. Why?

J: I have no idea

W: I'm looking this up *pulls up Wikipedia* *reads for five minutes* OH MY GOD THERE WAS A WHOLE RIVALRY

J: lol

W: This is actually really funny... not so much the pardoning bits, but what started it all. Basically, this dude Horace Vose started presenting dressed turkeys to the president , until some other dude decided that his turkey tasted better than Vose's and presented his own turkey instead. The prez then started receiving turkeys from literally EVERYONE, and this escalated to the point that Coolidge banned the practice... And then, the second he lifted it again, was flooded by turkeys, as well as an array of other animals, including a live racoon named Rebecca. Coolidge refused to eat her and named her a White House pet)

W: Okay, back to reading

Present-day W: (or, rather, watching!)

– – – 

J: This scene is cute

W: Hey look, it's our dynamic! "What's x"  "Look it up"

J: ☠️☠️☠️ ANYWAY.  THIS IS CUTEEE

W: “They wouldn’t [like him better] if they knew him”  Liar x2

J: Right?! 😂

W: Henry is about to gay panic for three hours straight

J: ☠️☠️☠️☠️ poor buddy!’

W: Fellas, is it gay to stare at your best-bro-pal-buddy's lips wrapped around a bottle?

J: I knowwwww

W: I love that the tie isn’t grey

J: PEZ

W: HELL YEAH

J: Ohhhhhhoooopp

W: Poor Henry looks so awkward when she sits on Alex

J: Oh god the flashbacks of school dances

W: I never went to any, so I am immune

J: OH GOD NOW THISSSS IS A FLASHBACK TO HS!  THIS DAMN SOMG

W: This poor man

J: ☠️☠️☠️ hennnryyyyy

W: Poor Henry

J: ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

W: Henry is legit me idk what you mean. Pop culture? Never heard of her? Dancing? Does English country dancing suffice? Non-80s-era pop music? What's that?

J: Here, yes, that's true... I still maintain Alex reminds me of you, though! Not to a T.  Just qualities

W: You've still yet to point out... where. Or how. I still don't see it; you need to hurry up and explain

J: I knowww

W: Oop, hello Henry

J: I feel like I being a damn peeping Tom rn

W: Henry heard "love at first sight" and went BET

J: 👀👀👀

W: That.  was not that explicit

J: Fair

W: That was addressing the rating thing, not you 🙄

J: Im starting to lose my optimism

J: “I’m bisexual” Oh.  Oh really?  You are?  You don’t say ☠️

W: I love Henry.  And his maypole comment

J: Henry should have been like well I’m straight and sat back while Alex imploded

W: SIR

J: ☠️☠️☠️

W: HENRY!  THAT!  LAKSJDF;LKASJDF

J: ☠️☠️☠️☠️ And the smug smirk after

W: Damn, homophobic grandfather instead of homophobic grandmother

W: Ooh, Alex, buddy, dealing with having a family like Henry's ain't that easy ngl

J: Yeahhhhh, that was very you-coded (Henry I mean)

W: Haha, let's go, expert-chameleons-in-a-homophobic-family squad

J: Budd- Ooop

J: Back to what I was saying... buddies that windows open

W: This is as bad as those spy/assassination movies where the target stands in front of the window

J: Right!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

W: Also, in the book, we did know they got a fuzzy photo at some point.  With a long-range camera.  Maybe that's this

J: Trueee

W: Okay, ig this is the true measure of the rating

J: Welp

W: The key 😭

J: With the key on!?

W: Oi, shush shush

J: 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Tis true!

W: Cas-coded

J: ☠️☠️ Spn can be found anywhere

W: I'm getting cereal, but don't pause; I'm bringing it with me

J: Ok lol

J: I quit

W: You really thought you were doing something

J: My phone is just against me

W: alskdjfalksdjf

J: ☠️☠️☠️

W: Does June not exist?  I'm starting to think she doesn't.  She wasn't in the photo session earlier either

J: I knowwww

W: Luna's not shown up either. Unless that's who Miguel's supposed to be

J: And his parents are together

W: They're also not div- yeah

W: He will love it... until he gets fired ☠️

J: Eww rude

W: Ugh, I cannot believe I'm saying this about a Jane Austen story*, but that — “It isn’t what we say or think that defines us, but what we do.” —  is a good quote

(*For those not Jezebel, despite being grudgingly somewhat fond of Jane Austen, I also was made to read her stories too many times and now also have a quiet grudge against her/her stories. And I loathe the 2005 Pride & Prejudice story, just on its own merit. Colin Firth/Jennifer Ehle miniseries forever <3)

J: 🤣🤣🤣

W: This poor dude

W: OOP 

J: Uh oh.  I think Miguel IS gonna BE Luna or be the leak

W: Skullduggery ❤️ (Kinda gives vibes of the Doctor Who conversation about, what was it... "With a little bit of jiggery-pokery." "Is that a technical term, jiggery-pokery?" "Yeah, I came first in jiggery-pokery. What about you?" "No, I failed hullabaloo.")

J: This’ll be interesting

J: Oh poor buddy 😂 “once, unsuccessfully”

W: Was that about the cooking comment or the Grindr comment?

J: Yes. Also, call me uncultured I haven’t seen that film either

J: 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

W: Oh no

J: Uh oh 🤣🤣🤣

W: NO!  NO ONE IN THIS HERE HOTEL ROOM AT ALL

J: ☠️☠️☠️☠️

W: Zahra!  Don't make assumptions!  Tsk tsk! The "she" is a he, and also hiding in the closet! (I meant that literally, as they do have a habit of that happening, but it also turns out to be figurative too)

J: "It’s all chill"

W: Technically.  They each already had an NDA

J: And now Zahra shall pass the fuck away ☠️

W: laskdf;lkajsdf Henry did not fucking pose ☠️

J: Poor thing!  Does not get paid enough

W: alksdjflaksdjflaksdjf

J: “Oh god”

W: I love them 😭  Mid-tense-conversation and they're gabbing! "And I told my sister!"  "Oh?!  I didn't know that!" "Yeah, she was really happy for us!"

J: IT WAS SO ADORABLE

W: "Technically, I'm the spare"  😭 😭

W: ZAHRA MA'AM

J: WHAT!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Not "fuckleroy"

J: I said the same Zahra! 🤣🤣

J: Nooooo 🤣🤣

W: This poor woman did not know what she was getting into when she had this kid

J: I love herrr ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

W: WHERE'S THE POWERPOINT :(

J: Oh mah god! I love this song

J: Sameee

J: What’s that statue doing in the background

W: About what Crowley's does, probably.

J: This is so soft thooooo ☠️☠️☠️

J: AWWWWWWWW

W: aksdjflsakfdj His history would include him and be like "this man was Henry's best friend and they lived together and snogged at times and weren't they such good friends!?!?!"

J: ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

J: Buddy has a death grip on him

W: Okay, not to bring in GOmens but the signet ring is giving me Azi vibes

J: LOL!  BUT THAAAAA RING

W: WHAT?!!?  THE KEY IS JUST-  WHAT

J: Ngl I like the exchange better than just him adding the ring

W: I don’t!!!  I liked the "two homes, side-by-side" thing 😭

J: Yeah that’s true!

W: Uh oh

J: Oh no

W: The emails went out on fucking REDDIT!?!?  Awkward

W: asldkfjalskdjfasdflkj What's the this?

J: I swear I thought he was playing heart and soul but I meant playing together in general

J: I hadn’t reread the book yet but I’m going to now ☠️☠️☠️

[izloveshorses]

greta gerwig really said. when this girl gets a little sad and confused by the weird and complicated and uncomfortable parts of being human and growing up, she meets god and sits at her kitchen table, drinks her tea, holds her hands. and she asks god if she’s allowed to be happy. and god tells her she doesn’t need her permission. she tells her she’s going to be okay.
