Pitch Perfect

So, can someone explain this movie to me.  I know I read fic before I saw the movie, so my expectations were skewed.  But I tried very hard to stay open minded and see how they were going to pull it off.  But WTF?  Who wrote the romance in this

Oh, that was a great movie. But clearly, you have not seen it as you should. Yes the official romance was horrible, but that's because it's a coverup. Everybody knows the true romance in that story was the love triangle between Beca/Chloe/Aubrey, which should be resolved in an OT3. See here: http://archiveofourown.org/users/cdybedahl/pseuds/cdybedahl/works?fandom_id=588513
Although, really, just browse through AO3, I'm pretty sure the majority of works are Beca/Chloe.

Oh no, you're totally right. If there was actually a well-done romance storyline it was ALL Beca/Chloe with Aubrey for drama. We could even do a careful analysis of Beca's face: with Jesse - oh god, you're horrifying me, please leave me alone. With Chloe - oh god, you're horrifying me, but I kind of like you, don't leave.

I'm usually prepared for shippable movies to have a reasonably plausible romance that annoys me a bit, but this one was like, nope, she really hates him. THERE IS NOTHING PLAUSIBLE ABOUT THIS. Gilligankane's Song Beneath the Song is now canon in my head.

But Triple Treble is awesome too. :)

I actually did this, and more so for Chloe and Aubrey. If you follow their faces while they sing... it all suddenly becomes clear.

My canon for Pitch Perfect are cdybedahl's stories...whether the Beca/Chloe ones or Triple Treble. I'm hoping she writes a third part for The Consequences of Inebriation, where Aubrey joins with Chloe and Beca.

While I agree with you on the fact that I never understood why Beca had to kiss Jesse, when there was no chemistry between them.
I saw it first,because of the Beca/Chloe shower scene and the singing, now I just have the movie because is you forget the predictable ending, I must say I really liked it, and the Amy character was really fun.
