A comm for Lord Of The Rings Memes!

Rules:

  1. Follow the ToS of Piefed.social

  2. Don't be too rough with each other! We're here to appreciate, and sometimes lightly rib, Tolkien's fantastic creation, and all of its derivative works. Arguments happen, but remember, in the words of Tolkien, that food and cheer and good song are what make a merrier world!

  3. AI content will be removed at moderator discretion. We ultimately want to keep AI content in this comm to a minimum, so while unknowingly sharing an AI meme might not always merit a removal, things like AI videos and the like will generally be removed.

My wife hates it when I do this.

A little while back, I had a visit from a friend who had never seen Gattaca. The friend had a personality similar to mine. We put on the movie; I don't remember what observations we had to share with each other, but I remember at one point my wife said "we've been watching this movie for 45 minutes and we're only 10 minutes in."

Trivia is worth it!

Gattaca is a fantastic movie.

Okay, tried to edit with a spoiler tag, but apparently my client doesn't do it properly. Sorry!

The markup should look like this:

"River" has never been so appropriate as it is here.

I've never seen Gattaca, but every time it's mentioned I'm reminded that the late CLA Building from my alma mater was in it.
