You really should. It's such a feel good movie. I've seen it 3 times already.

Same for Snapshots (well no I have seen that one 5 or 6 times already

)

I find it funny how all these cali based companies like apple and all the social media apps pretend to be liberal and yet they act like some ultra-conservative priests.

and another movie on my watching list

*Lethe's Bramble* · 12-05-2018, 04:54 AM

when are you going to watch them?

The actresses from the last movie, Snapshots, are really sweet. I tweeted them and they were so thankful I enjoyed the movie.

Heda_Khaleesi · 12-05-2018, 03:16 PM

i have no idea also because Colette (2018) is on my watching list too! anyone heard about it/seen it?

*Lethe's Bramble* · 12-05-2018, 05:11 PM

Heard about it but haven't seen it yet.

There were a few tropes for lesbians on tv. One was death, the other was psychopath, cheater and getting pregnant.

Oh and some of them also turned straight again.

Back in the days we used to have this thing called 'sweeps week lesbian' which was when the views of TV shows were counted and everywhere there would pop up lesbians who later disappeared or died or whatever. I think we even had a survivor game done with that theme on the LGBT thread over at the Communties board.

oh damn, i was only aware of the death trope. didn't know the others like psychopath and so on...do you have examples? anyways that's a very bad image. these days lesbians are luckily better portrayed. the latest one i discovered are Karolina and Nico from Runaways. do you know them by any chance?

*Lethe's Bramble* · 12-07-2018, 04:49 AM

Well, for one thing do you know the show The O.C.? One of the main characters, Marissa, got into a fling with a girl, Alex, during sweeps weeks and then after that they made Alex go all clingy and jealous and stalkery when Marissa tried to break it off.

This is them:

But then it turned into this:

There are more but I don't have that much time right now. I'll come back later with more examples.

It's also funny how a lot of lesbians or bisexuals on TV have the samen name.

We've had so may Emily's and Alex's it's kind of hilarious.

And yes, Karolina and Nico. I am aware of pretty much every w/w ship on tv.

I don't watch the show though but I have seen their cute scenes on youtube. One day I will watch the show because it seems like a cool show.

Heda_Khaleesi · 12-08-2018, 01:17 AM

ah sure i watched The OC. but i gotta admit i was always a big Marissa/Ryan fan (i shortly liked Ryan with Sadie too and i found Alex cool) but i never minded when they split up with their partners because that meant the way was free for Ryan/Marissa again

but after OC i followed Olivia Wilde a while and i really like her movies. she is often playing a bi character and i guess in real life she is too though she never said anything about her sexuality?

i can recommend the Runaways. it's a nice show, not one of the best i have ever watched but it has lovely characters

and i am sure they will treat their lesbian couple nicely.

*Lethe's Bramble* · 12-08-2018, 07:51 AM

I loved Marissa and Ryan too tbh. Although I am always a fan of girls kissing each other especially when they are kissing Olivia Wilde.

Olivia went to play the bisexual Thirteen on the show House but even there she got a sucky storyline. Once she was out she got Huntington disease and after sleeping around to get over it she disappeared.

Could be that Olivia is bi in real life but she's happily married if I'm not mistaken to Jason Sudeikis.

I will add The Runaways to my list of TV shows that I have to watch.

**Arrakis** · 12-08-2018, 09:25 AM

I saw her in a few movies i like her. She once kinda admitted to being bi.

Right, I remember that 'interview'.

like her too. Will definately watch something she's in. I started watching The Black Donnellys for her at some point but stopped because I couldn't get into the show despite her being in it.
