Angsty Romantic Cliches I’m a Slut For 

  • Holding their partner’s unconscious/dead body
  • Sobbing into their partner’s shoulder/chest
  • One of them is hurt and the other falls asleep in their hospital room
  • The other losing their mind when their partner is hurt/killed and charging into battle recklessly
  • “I thought I lost you” hugs
  • “Don’t go where I can’t follow!” 
  • One is mind controlled and forced to fight the other
  • The other refusing to harm them and getting seriously injured as consequence 
  • The person coming to and seeing what they’ve done
  • I could go on about this trope alone for 5 hours
  • A last desperate “I love you!” 
  • A tearful, hard kiss before battle, bonus points if its a confessional kiss
  • “Please, I don’t know what I’d do without you.” 
  • Bandaging each other’s wounds
  • Both of them injured, and waking up beside each other

lolita remake but from dolores point of view. the rapes, the death of her mother, being controlled by humbert, not being able to make friends, the emotional and physical abuse, being forced to do porn by quilty, the teenage pregnancy, the trauma and finally dying in childbirth.

lolita but as what it really is: a horror story

Bonus points if it’s directed by a woman.

movie: amadeus (1984)  

On the page it looked nothing. The beginning simple, almost comic. Just a pulse – bassoons and basset horns – like a rusty squeezebox. Then suddenly – high above it – an oboe, a single note, hanging there unwavering, till a clarinet took over and sweetened it into a phrase of such delight! This was no composition by a performing monkey! This was a music I’d never heard. Filled with such longing, such unfulfillable longing, it had me trembling. It seemed to me that I was hearing the very voice of God.

Ok, I think people are taking it too literally when stans say a character deserved better. What they actually mean is that they deserve better as a viewer. I’m sure they are aware their fav is evil but they wanted to see a better storyline or a least an epic fight scene. It’s entertainment. I wanted Mallory to be an angel not because I wanted her to save Michael but because that would’ve been a more interesting storyline. Not everything is about shipping.
