It’ll probably end up in the $600-700 million range during its total box office run. That’s the typical amount for a Marvel movie that isn’t a)An Avengers movie, b)a Captain America movie, or c)an Iron Man movie.

“Spider-Man: Homecoming is projected to make $100 million in the US and $200 million worldwide, so I won’t feel bad at all about staying home!”

I don’t think Taylor has many real friends. She collects people when they are at the top then drops them when they cease to be useful to her.

Oh Hannah, it;s pretty obvious what’s goin on. Swifty and Karlie broke up, Swifty is devastated and not leaving the house, and Karlie is trying out Kendall for awhile.

Visible, ultimate squad? It’s a bunch of skinny, pretty, wealthy, white women who think their leader is some downtrodden, bullied underdog instead of the epitome of white privilege. It’s no different than hanging out with Donald Trump and his friends.

It was the fact that the rape wasn’t even about her. As a storypoint, we’re supposed to feel sad for the man watching it happen.

Can you explain to me why you feel it’s necessary to show the scene, even though we would know without it what was happening? I understand that Sansa being raped was integral to the plot (though again, I wish they’d gone in a different direction), but I don’t understand why we needed to SEE it happening in order for…

If this is in fact true, it’s the “best” reason I’ve seen to justify/explain the POV shift from Sansa to Reek:

LF’s plot to marry her to Ramsay worked perfectly for him. How is he incompetent?

It made perfect sense to marry her off. He got exactly what he wanted. The North indebted to the Eyrie. And Sansa indebted to him once more.

The Bastard Bolton would never kill her. So there was no risk. Ramsay made that clear repeatedly.

That’s not what happened in show. Sansa chose to break Reek. It wasn’t because of what happened to her. She stood taller than him and literally held him as she forced him to confront what he did to her brothers *his* brothers. Until he admitted what really happened. Thus breaking into Theon.

What I’m telling you is that the result of the decision to portray the scene in this way had a very different affect on me, and on many people watching it. It is an opinion and I believe those responding this way are sincere. I am also sincere in describing my response, which is not an uncommon one. The books do…

I’m confused, should writers just pretend rape doesn’t exist? Never include it in fiction?

What else could Littlefinger have done with her? If he had brought her back to Kings Landing they would have killed her and he would have gotten little more than a pat on the back or possibly even killed as a traitor if they figured he was in on it.

Just wishing I could star your replies about this more than once.

Honestly I didn’t even take it to be any sort of redemption plot of Theon in the books. There was a lot more going on to sort of spur him to leave.

What I’m explaining to you is that this default reaction you seem to think “people” had with the scene is not universal.

That was my thought as well. As soon as I knew Sansa was to be married to Ramsay, I knew it was inevitable that he would probably rape her, brutally and sadistically. If they didn’t show it, I’d still assume that was the case. Hell, the line she give to Littlefinger “I can still feel it— I dont mean in my tender…

I really felt like the pan to Theon was that it was about both of them and not showing it was the choice to avoid being gratuitous. Would you rather they stayed on her the whole time? I wouldn’t.
