sometimes i feel like i have watched different movies than other people but it’s really just that i am able to find fat people hot when they’re being hot
also I cannot, try as I might, get over the cringing void where the chemistry between Kate Winslet and Jack Black is supposed to be, this man is hell, stop telling her what films to watch, stop scatting at the shops, ask her a question you pig!!!
he’s telling her what films to watch because she’s looking for movies to watch and he’s passionate about his job which is doing film scores!! he’s not even pretentious about it!! he’s just knowledgeable about good film scores!! i can’t do this
@zoenone0none
“Ask her a question, you pig!” is a) very revealing re: why she doesn’t find one of the most chemistry-filled romcom relationships of the 21st century utterly charming but also b) a really weird criticism of that character specifically, who does spend a lot of the film listening
@zoenone0none
Wow she has the worst take ever! Cameron and Jude are literally instalove, snog, snog. It’s so boring. I want Frappuccino Blockbuster dates!!! They’re a lost art
@zoenone0none
Ok the comments are telling me you guys have no idea what chemistry is. Jack Black is not being pretentious but lord do they not have an ounce of tension between them. But lucky for them, neither do Jude and Cameron. The movie, despite trying twice, lacks a compelling romance!
@zoenone0none
I like Iris-Miles. Especially after how the last guy treated her.
But my favorite relationship in this movie was the Iris-Arthur relationship. I would have loved more of that. I would have watched a whole movie of the two of them being friends and supporting one another.
@zoenone0none
Jack Black is so wildly charismatic, and you pair that with him playing a character who's a) sweet and b) a musician and c) into good movies, of course she's into him.
@zoenone0none
OP literally does not understand the movie. everything she says is “why didn’t they cover this plothole?!” and it’s literally talked about in the movie. i think she’d love jack black as a character romantic lead if she could understand a movie as complex as ✨the holiday ✨
@zoenone0none
Okay thank you for posting this because I was like "What am I missing??" Jack Black is so charming and sweet in this film and I usually *hate* romcoms.
