Has anyone seen Skinamarink yet? I want to, but uhh I’m kind of scared.

Hell yeah, NOPE is the best
The new Hellraiser was... fine, I guess? There was a weightlessness and bloodlessness to it that was a weird choice. You want to feel Hellraiser... it needs to be visceral (in all senses of the word). This one was weirdly sanitized. I agree the updated mythos was a great choice, but wish they would have invested in…
Barbarian somehow managed to take everything I thought was going to happen and turn it on its side to send the movie into a whole new wild direction. I laughed, jumped and sometimes both at once. Add the top notch shot framing and Justin Long’s funniest performance in a long time (ever?) and this took the top horror…
it’s quite literally a play on classic Italian tragicomedies, miscommunication and misidentifying things is the point. it’s a modern telling.
I’m not convinced that Jack is keeping Portia away from the party.
everyone is manipulating everyone around them in this show. cam and daphne are clearly trying to scam ethan and harper, ethan probably knows it, but still agreed to this trip so that he could finally win that dick-measuring contest by rejecting cam, harper is now toying with ethan by implying a flirtation with cam to…
Because both Greg and Quentin think Tanya is an idiot. Like with the queen of Sicily remark. Why lie to her about something so easily disprovable? They think they can scam her because they think she’s stupid. I think in this episode we got some hints that Tanya isn’t as dumb as she seems when it comes right down to…
Given Tanya’s conversation with Portia, and the fact that she observes the picture and doesn’t freak out — I think she’s smarter and shrewder than we’ve all been led to believe. I think there’s a reason she demurred as being “so nervous” and making the handsome young man do all the work. After all, she had the pre-nup…
Forgot about that picture of Greg in the cowboy hat. Once Tanya finds that old VHS tape Greg made of himself trying to throw a football over a mountain, things are really going to hit the fan.
Prenup wouldn’t matter if she’s murdered, right? I’m assuming Greg was whispering to Quinten on the phone in the earlier episode. They’re in it together... Q handles the killing, G gets the money as her beneficiary.
I agree with you on Tanya - I’m not positive, but I’m pretty sure she recognized Greg. She picks up the photo, says something like “oh wow” and then her eyes dart around like she’s searching for understanding or maybe piecing things together.
When did she treat Albie badly? She just wasn’t all that into him in the first place. If anything Albie tried to “nice guy” white knight her and it didn’t work.
And maybe more obviously, Albie’s grandfather laments his fantasy of reuniting with his long-lost family not being realized in this episode.
After getting a “grow up” lecture from both Tanya and Jack, it seems like she’s the one headed out of this trip with some personal growth.
I think fantasy was the theme of this episode. when fantasy is used as pure escape it can be dangerous (Tanya, Portia and the “nephew”) and other times it truly is the realest part of you (Valentina, who is sadly stuck in a homophobic part of the world).
How is it toxic? It seems harmless. She left crap around his room.
Because it’s all actually incredibly tame and calling it “psychological torture” is dumb clickbait.
“It was like Murder On The Orient Express. Everyone was the murderer.”
It’s “bought” sex in the afternoon. Important detail, given that this season is about transactional sex (Quentin-Nephew; Lucia-everyone; Mia-Valentina)
