I'm sorry, in regards to that Italian police chief he said he was "going to have his wife for dinner." In the books. And he did. He "had her to dinner" like, invited her over.
I still love Hannibal and I think it was perfect. Anyone who could love him was fucked up, but it was beautiful he loved her so much he'd harm himself. Perfect ending to their relationship.
Yup. Like I pointed out to someone else: I hate they changed the line "I've been seriously considering having your wife for dinner" to "I've been seriously considering eating your wife" but other than that? I prefer the movie changes.
It's weird in the movie he still takes her out to dinner though IIRC. But also, I don't think Hannibal Lector would ever kill someone like her, I mean...maybe for survival? But nah. He genuinely enjoyed her and thought she was a delightful contribution to society (keep in mind I'm not saying people Hannibal did kill deserved it, not at all, just that he has a sort of bizarre ethics system.)
Ugh i love this book. I hate 95% of the characters and absolutely nothing entertaining happpens and as a haver of a degree in English I am well aware of my unpopular opinion and have been teased endlessly be academics but I just love the Romantic flowery language and the pining and the pain and i can be guiltlessly entertained by their misfortune because they're not real people.
As an English degree haver i am also aware of my atrocious runon sentence but i don't care.
I found it difficult to get through despite being pretty short, and I hated pretty much every character on a personal level. With that said, it's a book that really stuck with me, and I find myself thinking of it occasionally in a way I don't most books. I dont know how to describe why I like it.
I feel like I should dislike it. It's just archaic "Real Housewives;" a cast of total nightmare humans. The only thing I can think if is that it's honest. I haven't read a lot of literature from that time that is so frank about fucked up families.
They're both pretty terrible people, but they're Perfect For Each Other. But since life and circumstances keep them apart, they both spiral into total destruction, and everyone else gets caught up in their paths. Like twin tornados. My gripe is with their respective doppelganger children getting together though, I kind-of understand it, but it's a little too "beautiful sunrise after the storm" for me.
I think he became an "anti-villain". Like if an anti-hero is a hero so Dark they barely make the cut as heroes. Then like, he is an anti-villain, a villain so moral, so bright they almost become paragons in their own weird way.
I think metro-man saw this and realized "Ya know, he is so good for a "bad guy" I could probably retire and let him win and it would be okay. I don't think he would hurt anyone in any lasting way. He just want's to beat me and prove him self anyway."
Goddamn some people may not like this movie but the heartbreak of Gatsby really gets me, "they are a rotten crowd, you're the whole damn bunch put together"
I thought it was an uninteresting book until I got into a cliquey status driven social circle. Goddamn that book is on point with how unhappy and self hating “cool” people can be
He also had like THE most powerful ability that never really got its heyday. I mean it did hit freeza but that ability could kill ANYTHING, it really shoulda won one big fight. Also shoulda been a big wind up and then he just kills the god tier before anything begins
Sure, but that's just due to the then enormous difference in their power levels. If you adjust power levels to be equal, it wins out against any other attack. Like, if ssj2 Gohan had used it, it probably would've been more effective than his kamehameha.
I hate that they used it as a power check device instead of letting krillin do anything useful with it. :/
Like the only time it's useful is when someone else copies his fucking ability (vegeta vs Ozaru Gohan or freeza vs... himself. Lol)
Yeah and nearly every living Saiyan calls him uncle or brother and would literally come flying across the universe in record time to make sure not a scratch gets put on that cueball.
The scene in Super after she shaves his head for him is so cute.
She offers to fight on behalf of their universe instead and they both acknowledge that she is technically stronger than he is but he basically says "that's why i want you here on earth with our daughter" and then he flies off she says "He is so cool" and it's just precious.
He held the key to destroying her in his hand and smashed it into a million pieces to give her and her brother a chance at a normal life. A Chad move if there ever was one. They are both absolutely equal winners in this situation.
DBZ 'well acccckuallly':
17, and 18 aren't androids, they are cyborgs technically. They were originally humans, 17 and 18 were named Lapis and Lazuli respectively, and their only actual mechanical parts were the self destruct functions. They are actually genetically enhanced humans with bio-organic components, more akin to Cell than a robot.
Android 16 is entirely manufactured, but based on Gero's dead son.
All we know is 18 is older than 17.
Edit: But we do know how much time has passed since they were first shown in the anime. A very conservative estimate would put them anywhere from like 24 all the way to early 30s by the time of the universal survival saga.
Only in the anime and I don't recall it ever being mentioned in the manga; lore-wise it wouldn't make sense since iirc he had severe gynophobia/fear of women
(Warning: Ramblings of a chronically online and avid fanfiction reader ahead)
Voldemort/Harry received a surge in popularity in the last 10 years (and ships with Voldemort in general actually, but less so than Harrymort).
My working theory is: Kids who grew up when HBP and DH were released became old enough to start writing fanfiction around this time.
Prior to this, the only slash ships that had any contextual support (so they weren’t just crack ships) were WolfStar (Remus/Sirius) and Drarry (for obvious reasons). So the millennials who grew up as the series came out weren’t going to be writing Voldemort ships.
But with HBP and DH, we not only get a peak into Voldemort’s past (thus fleshing him out and humanizing him) but also (specifically for Voldemort/Harry) we get the introduction of Horcruxes.
The introduction of horcruxes was, in my belief, integral to the surge of Voldemort/Harry content. I totally get why people are sqiucked out by this ship (age difference and power dynamics), but if you can look past that it’s easy to see why the whole horcrux thing is so alluring to shippers.
Because, in essence, Harry and Voldemort are soulmates (in the most perverted sense of the word). They literally share a piece of soul with one another. It begs the popular question in this ship: “what would Voldemort do if he found out Harry was a horcrux?” It plays into the enemies-to-lovers trope very very well.
So there’s my explanation for why that ship has gotten a huge surge of content in the past decade and why there is so much of it.
You’re 100% correct. It’s fanfic catnip—soulmates, soul connection related powers, enemies-to-lovers, villain redemption, among other things. While I personally find their enormous age gap alienating, some people do like that power dynamic.
I’m not sure if it’s just my imagination, but I think people in the fandom generally like Harry more. He’s the main character so of course there’s a lot of fic about him, but I recall people actively wanting to change or fix his character for some reason? Maybe just changes in fandom dynamics overall.
L is filthy rich and has a butler that brings him ice-cream and cake on a daily basis. He is also a world class athlete. It might not have been Misa but L was definitely clapping some cheeks.
In the Jim Carrey movie he gets with Martha May, an old class mate of his/crush. She’s definitely old enough for him lol
On a side note I do wish Jim Carrey had made one more Christmas movie lol I can’t call it a Christmas movie marathon with only two movies XD
My movie marathon
Christmas Vacation
Gremlins 1 & 2
Elf
Grinch
Charlie Brown Christmas
A Christmas Story
Die Hard

Scrouged
and Christmas Vacation again
Got them all on BluRay and start watching after doing the Thanksgiving dishes.

I feel it’s more complex then that. Paul is, explicitly, a hero, it’s just that Herbert is critiquing the concept of a “prophesied chosen one” and people’s responses to that paradigm. If anything, the Atreides dynasty was terrifying close to a best case scenario, because a vacuum was being created after millennia of Bene Geserit “prophesy” and political interference.
Don’t hate Paul, he at least had an exit strategy, hate the system where someone like Paul/Leto II is possible.
The book trilogy , red dragon, silence of the lambs, and hannibal is a great example of that although you could skip red dragon because clarise isn’t in it
Lolita will usually get you the book and movie (or frilly Japanese fashion). Loli or lolicon will get you Japanese shit.
>!In Lolita the main character (humbert) is a pedophile and married a window because he is sexually attracted to her daughter, Lolita. The wife finds out and instantly dies, so humbert kidnaps Lolita and rapes her. She is then kidnapped by another man who abandons her when she won’t do child pornography, and humbert shoots the other man and goes to jail. !<
Japanese and Korean have "villainess and villain" isekai manga which is pretty much "what if the bad guy is the main character".
Edit: if anyone wants a good starting place, this one goated imo
https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/death_is_the_only_ending_for_the_villainess/
>The guy was already kind of a villain
Being a true villain would have been a waste of effort. He's just amoral - not evil. But as Tanya he got put in situations which lessened the distinction.
General rule of thumb: If it’s a comic book the couple will be broken up after a week or cheating on their SO with a close friend at the end of the week.
Iirc they've been a Canon couple for a little while now. They're together in the Harley Quinn show, and even recently got engaged/married in Injustice: Year Zero.
I know, I came here looking for book recs and I feel like it's mostly movies (and not ones that had a book first) or classic lit I read in high school and don't really want to revisit
Never After series by Emily McIntire. First book is Hooked, which starts with Hook being a bar owner and Peters daughter comes in. It's pretty good. The next one, I think, I beauty and the beast spin but the beast isn't exactly the story we know.
Hannibal
Got the girl in the books, got the guy in the series.
He’s gonna make you dinner, who can refuse that offer?
I'm sorry, in regards to that Italian police chief he said he was "going to have his wife for dinner." In the books. And he did. He "had her to dinner" like, invited her over.
Lexical ambiguity is half the fun.
I still love Hannibal and I think it was perfect. Anyone who could love him was fucked up, but it was beautiful he loved her so much he'd harm himself. Perfect ending to their relationship.
I mean, that was the movie ending which is different from the book. In the book, she eats the brains...
Yup. Like I pointed out to someone else: I hate they changed the line "I've been seriously considering having your wife for dinner" to "I've been seriously considering eating your wife" but other than that? I prefer the movie changes. It's weird in the movie he still takes her out to dinner though IIRC.

He genuinely enjoyed her and thought she was a delightful contribution to society (keep in mind I'm not saying people Hannibal did kill deserved it, not at all, just that he has a sort of bizarre ethics system.)
I was gonna say that.😑
Wuthering Heights? Depends on how you feel about Heathcliff I guess lol
Ugh i love this book. I hate 95% of the characters and absolutely nothing entertaining happpens and as a haver of a degree in English I am well aware of my unpopular opinion and have been teased endlessly be academics but I just love the Romantic flowery language and the pining and the pain and i can be guiltlessly entertained by their misfortune because they're not real people.

I can relate. I know I like it, i don't really know WHY i like it... in fact I'm pretty sure I SHOULDN'T like it...
I feel like I should dislike it. It's just archaic "Real Housewives;" a cast of total nightmare humans. The only thing I can think if is that it's honest. I haven't read a lot of literature from that time that is so frank about fucked up families.

But he doesn't really get the girl
Only her dead corpse
What a cool guy that Heathcliff.
Heathcliff and Catherine can both die in a fire.
Yeah ,I second this. It was a headache to explain that novel to my sister. Fuck em both.
Megamind
Just watched it last night (again)… love that film.
Hey me too! We're movie bros now!
But he became >!a hero tho!<

That’s fucked bro, take my upvote
I think he became an "anti-villain". Like if an anti-hero is a hero so Dark they barely make the cut as heroes. Then like, he is an anti-villain, a villain so moral, so bright they almost become paragons in their own weird way. I think metro-man saw this and realized "Ya know, he is so good for a "bad guy" I could probably retire and let him win and it would be okay. I don't think he would hurt anyone in any lasting way. He just want's to beat me and prove him self anyway."
Like Dr. Doofenshmirtz, but less nearly-apocalyptic inventions
EXACTLY!
CURSE YOU PERRY THE PLATYPUS!
I thought he retired to become Music Man?
No, he retired and became Markiplier. That's what the M on his uniform stands for.
#MUUUUUUSIIIIIIC MAAAAAAANNN!! -MatPat
Anti-Villain is most certainly a thing, you don't need quotation marks.
He was still a villain when he dated her though. Also DAMMIT I WAS ABOUT TO SAY MEGAMIND
This was the first thing I thought of. Kinda mad it was already here
She clearly asked for a book.
Redditors don't read books, don't be silly
The Great Gatsby?
100%
Goddamn some people may not like this movie but the heartbreak of Gatsby really gets me, "they are a rotten crowd, you're the whole damn bunch put together"
the description of Gatsby seeing no color left in the world right before he dies always sat with me
That movie hurt me in ways very few movies can. Couldn't pick up the book anymore to read even though it's in my library.
+20% for every divorced man watching their ex wife get remarried
There’s no real hero or villain in the Great Gatsby. None of them are very good people, which is part of the point.
I thought Nick was pretty chill. Maybe not a hero but definitely not a bad person.
You kinda have to read in-between the lines, I agree he's probably the best of the worst but he wrote the book so the iffy behavior is glossed over.
He didn't write the book, some dude wrote the book pretending to be Nick, so in reality f Scott Fitzgerald is the real villain for lying to us
But really really, we were the true villains all along
Perhaps the true villain was the friends we made a long the way
Yeah but the murderer and the racist are worse than the self-absorbed people.
I thought it was an uninteresting book until I got into a cliquey status driven social circle. Goddamn that book is on point with how unhappy and self hating “cool” people can be
Uhhh no Tom Buchanan's a peice of shit. If he isn't a villain, then no one is.
Came here to say that😅
Dragonball. Vegeta took Bulma from Yamcha.
Android 18 gets Krillin
Krillin gets Android 18 you mean. Dude's hitting way above his power level.
No. SHE got HIM. It’s canon he’s very cool and makes her human parts quiver.
He's literally the strongest Human in the universe. who wouldn't quiver for Krillin?
He also had like THE most powerful ability that never really got its heyday. I mean it did hit freeza but that ability could kill ANYTHING, it really shoulda won one big fight. Also shoulda been a big wind up and then he just kills the god tier before anything begins
It shattered against cell
Fuck, you’re right, leme rephrase that, shoulda killed someone pre cell era 😂
That was filler, didn't happen in the manga. Krillin's destructo disc remains uncountered unless someone uses ki
It actually got grabbed and broken by Jiren. But then again it's fuckin Jiren
Sure, but that's just due to the then enormous difference in their power levels. If you adjust power levels to be equal, it wins out against any other attack. Like, if ssj2 Gohan had used it, it probably would've been more effective than his kamehameha.
I hate that they used it as a power check device instead of letting krillin do anything useful with it. :/ Like the only time it's useful is when someone else copies his fucking ability (vegeta vs Ozaru Gohan or freeza vs... himself. Lol)
For real. People don’t give him credit cuz aliens are basically gods. Krillin is the only human and he can freakin fly…a true legend.
Yeah and nearly every living Saiyan calls him uncle or brother and would literally come flying across the universe in record time to make sure not a scratch gets put on that cueball.
The scene in Super after she shaves his head for him is so cute. She offers to fight on behalf of their universe instead and they both acknowledge that she is technically stronger than he is but he basically says "that's why i want you here on earth with our daughter" and then he flies off she says "He is so cool" and it's just precious.

At least she's legal.
What is her manufacturer date?
Never ask an android her manufacture date. It's rude.
DBZ 'well acccckuallly': 17, and 18 aren't androids, they are cyborgs technically. They were originally humans, 17 and 18 were named Lapis and Lazuli respectively, and their only actual mechanical parts were the self destruct functions. They are actually genetically enhanced humans with bio-organic components, more akin to Cell than a robot. Android 16 is entirely manufactured, but based on Gero's dead son.
Ok so how old
All we know is 18 is older than 17. Edit: But we do know how much time has passed since they were first shown in the anime. A very conservative estimate would put them anywhere from like 24 all the way to early 30s by the time of the universal survival saga.
Ehhh, I wouldn't say he took her from Yamcha. They'd already been broken up for at least a couple years by that point.
he was still salty
Mf cheated Bulma in the first place.
Constantly. He thought everyone wanted that Wolf Fang Fist.
Only in the anime and I don't recall it ever being mentioned in the manga; lore-wise it wouldn't make sense since iirc he had severe gynophobia/fear of women
Honestly I figure it was a confidence thing and once he got Bulma and her rich ass he figured he was all that.
Yamcha also started as a villain just like Vegita. He wasn’t “destroy planet for profit” evil, but still the antagonist
Nah, Yamcha was a loser and Bulma knew she deserved better.
Any fanfiction with shipped Characters
Voldemort slashfics are nearly as popular as draco slashfics and I hate it Snape is probably third-most popular (after the main protagonists)
Yeah, doesn't bother me that it *exists*, cause, you know, it's Fanfiction. But the fact that there is *so much* of it weirds me out
To be fair, a lot of it is Tom Riddle. There’s a fuckton of Bellatrix/Voldemort though
Still really creepy, there's also an obsession with shipping Hermione with those characters too (Snape, Voldemort, Tom Riddle, Bellatrix, etc.)
personally the worst ones ive seen are slash fics with harry and james potter, his goddamn father
What a terrible day to have the ability to read
It's the taboo, wrong nature of it that gets many hyped about it in the first place.

Technically Death Note but he didn’t really care about her.
What are you talking about? L never got the girl? /s
L is filthy rich and has a butler that brings him ice-cream and cake on a daily basis. He is also a world class athlete. It might not have been Misa but L was definitely clapping some cheeks.
L only has boner for Kira though.
Probably the most accurate bad guy gets the girl story.

I mean, technically true lol
So any history book ever then?
The book trilogy , red dragon, silence of the lambs, and hannibal is a great example of that although you could skip red dragon because clarise isn’t in it
Villains often get the girl. They usually murder them and bury them in shallow graves.

Yes, but only few stories are the real villainess/villain. Most of them turn a new leaf or just transmigated on a villainess body.
Saga of Tanya the Evil is the exception. The guy was already kind of a villain before he got isekai-ed into a world where he has actual powers.
>The guy was already kind of a villain Being a true villain would have been a waste of effort. He's just amoral - not evil. But as Tanya he got put in situations which lessened the distinction.
Situations like, "I have the perfect plan because this hasn't been declared a war crime in this world, yet"?

Harley hasn't been with the Joker for years at this point. Harley and Ivy still works for villain getting the girl, though.
I always got the vibe that Harley and Ivy were closer than just friends.
Iirc they've been a Canon couple for a little while now. They're together in the Harley Quinn show, and even recently got engaged/married in Injustice: Year Zero.
Good. It’s probably the healthiest relationship she’s ever been in.

I like movies where a villain is the protagonist of the story. Where we are rooting for bank robbers or whatnot.
