You read it. Feel free to trash terrible movie remakes of books!
Prime contestants include PJ, HP, The Hobbit, and many, many more!

Inhales loudly

I greet you with a snort of mighty rage.

MOVIE GINNY WAS SO BAD! I LOVED BOOK!GINNY BUT MOVIE!GINNY WAS AWFUL!!!
Also just realized that 'Ginny' and 'Jynnie' have the same pronunciation lol

Book Ginny was epic.

Neviluna is my favorite part of HP even if not cannon.

_{I'm a smol Ginny/Luna stan plz don't be angry}

More confused than angry. Like, that makes no sense.

I think they have really cute chemistry and they're an adorable couple

Unpopular Opinion:
Brown haired Annabeth doesn't make me overly angry but the fact that they tried to make her blonde in the second movie does, because you know what? You made a mistake, just roll with it and say in the movieverse children of Athena have brown hair. Don't retcon it.

It made me really pissed. But when they changed it it was even worse.

They introduced Clarise without any warning or even any buildup in the second movie. If you get rid of one character that had a major dynamic in the books, don't just bring her in without any warning!

Yea I agree.

In the second John Wick movie, there is a scene where John and another assassin are firing at each other while walking on two separate levels of a train station (This'll take a bit of explaining, bear with me). The assassin is on the upper level while John is on the bottom. They are walking past people while shooting suppressed (not silenced) pistols and holding either newspapers or briefcases in front of their faces and hands to hide the gun. they keep walking and taking shots, but none of them land. The major issue I have is WHY DID NO ONE ELSE NOTICE THIS?! They had their guns clearly in view when looking at them from the side, and pieces of wall and floor were breaking apart when the bullets hit! NO ONE REACTED! NO ONE BATTED AN EYE! THIS IS SO STUPID! I don't care that supposedly there were hundreds of assassins walking around and waiting for their chance, there had to be at least a few civilians! And if there were all of these assassins stalking John Wick, why didn't they all dogpile on top of him and then fight amongst themselves over the reward?! I love the premise of these movies, but there are some very dumb moments like these.

I literally cannot watch the HP movies because I can't stop thinking 'this didn't happen in the book, that got cut from the movie' etc. I absolutely love Fantastic Beasts though!

Neville in the first movie. Argh!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, Neville period!

I mean, they did some cool stuff with Draco in the movies, but the potions challenge was cut completely from the first one, and that was the first time we saw that Hermione wasn't just smart, she was logical and clever.

Yesss!

Copy/Pasted from 'Unpopular Opinion' thread

Bird Box is a f**king trash movie and everyone needs to read the book. The book was more about the fear of the unknown, some of the characters had different fates, and it had a really powerful scene involving a dog (but it wasn't included in the movie…)

Left out spoilers so y'all can see what I mean when you read the book.

Horror books are so much more impactful that horror movies because the monster looks however you think it does. Movies just make the monster disfigured and bloody, but sometimes a not visually terrifying monster is scarier.

I dunno, man. Have you seen the dog from The Thing?

No I don't watch horror movies, but I just feel like a lot of times when I talk to people who do they find the monsters underwhelming A Quiet Place

Every time I watch that scene, I just remember that the dogs are happy, they like acting, and their wagging tails mean that they're barking in hopes of getting a treat. Just gotta remember, man… shudders

Good actor doggos are precious.
There's a behind the scenes thing for Solo that's about the good actor doggos who played the Corellian hounds and they're precious!
