My sister adores him; she's having me come with her to the movies to see his newest film.

I get lobster cheese sticks outta this, so if it isn't so great, I'm still happy.

He was why I put off watching OFMD for so long lmao I thought for sure all the hype around it was due to his fandom being loud and obnoxious as always.

I'm glad GO left me in shambles and I needed something lighthearted to grab onto immediately afterwards, and then OFMD just so happened to be coming back...

OMFD is one of those things (to me) that isn't as good as its hardest-core fans make it out to be, but which is genuinely good and shouldn't be written off as just a "tumblr show" for sure. There's a lot of really good performances there, and the pacing is very solid.

I swear obnoxious fandoms are the main reason I wait on things. I know I’ll probably love whatever it is…I just can’t stand how weird people get about things.

I’ll bump OFMD up my list because I know I’ll probably love it.

It’s a very charming little show. I also avoided it bc of the tumblr hype, but on its own it has a lot of merit.

I do have it blocked everywhere tho lol, the fandom sucks

I'm the internet. I cried and it's the only time I liked Scarlet Johansson in anything, including "Her".

I agree. I liked her immensely in JJR and that shoe scene fucked me up.

I find him incredibly extra and annoying but also very attractive, unfortunately.
