Fun story. When the titanic came out, the girl I was crushing on asked me if I wanted to go see it with her and her other friends.
Yeah. So we’re in line to get in and I made a sarcastic comment, something about, “but we know how it ends… the ship sinks.”
Apparently. She didn’t know that. Oops.
In any case the gaggle of old women in the row behind us were more entertaining. It may have been like their fifth time watching it. Specifically so they could see DiCaprio’s naked ass. The rest of the time they spent heckling it MST3K- style.
Even if it's a re-run, it's a dick move to give away the ending to any movie while in line to see it.
It's a very well known historical story though.
Thank you. Excellent observation It is, in fact, the very fact that makes the comment you are responding to funny.
Lmao
Watching a movie about WWII "I wonder who won??"
I wonder what hobbies this Julius Caesar guy gets into when he retires?
He gets really good at playing dead, even has fake knife wounds
Omg don't spoil I haven't watched that movie yet. I didn't even know their was a first one.
I hear that if they ever do a 3rd movie it is going to burst on the scene and really explode from there.
...and this is why i loved inglourius basterds...
The Americans, obviously.
Fuck yeah!
That would be like, being in line for a film about Helen Keller and mentioning she is blind and deaf. Like. Yeah. She is. You should know that, regardless of the film.
Who is Helen Keller?
She is one of the biggest community volunteers to the Lemmy code repo.
and they already made a film about her? that was fast...
I thought she was a mod on Twitter. They never see anything wrong with any posts I report.
Omg lmao
That's like watching a World War 2 movie and "spoiling" the fact that Germany lost.
If you don't know the story of the Titanic idk what to tell you.
Truth be told, I started watching Once Upon a Time In Hollywood having zero context of what the hell the story is meant to actually be about until half way when someone told me, and it vastly improved the movie.
Like, the woman just looked like a useless character you know. And would keep looking so.
Can you help a friend out?
