OLD GUARD REFERENCE

Mirai: What is he? Your boyfriend? Gai: You're a child. An infant. Your mocking is thus infantile. He's not my boyfriend. This man is more to me than you can dream. He's the moon when I'm lost in darkness and warmth when I shiver in cold. And his kiss still thrills me, even after a millennia. His heart overflows with the kindness of which this world is not worth of. I love this man beyond measure and reason. He's not my boyfriend. He's all and he's more. Kakashi: You're an incurable romantic. [Kakashi and Gai kiss in front of the stunned chunin]

Feel free to help this breach containment- I'd love to see what people outside of my own fandoms will feel about it. (Tagging my own fandoms that I've seen one or more of these metaphors in.)

(Edit: I've already gained enough responses through the tags to make a follow-up poll to this one with new metaphors. Debating whether to drop it once this one ends or to just drop it asap.)

Anyone else on the planet or this timeline wondering what or who they need to sell, to get more old guard comic stories or the freaking movie sequel?

I can appreciate Booker was drunk longer, Quynh/Noriko was trapped longer, Joe and Nicky have loved longer and Andromache has lived longer but for this mere mortal this wait is something else.

2024 don’t let me down

Rewatching Old Guard and realizing how much Andy tries to impress Niles

Like an estranged aunt trying to show off to her niece

“See small child? Look at how cool I am. So badass! I was worshipped as a god once!”

And Booker is just the depressed uncle that hangs around

Charlize Theron says ‘THE OLD GUARD 2’ is coming "soon."

"We got kind of stuck in that and our post-production shut down. We finally picked it back up and I’m really excited about it."
