hahahaha some dude's DN is making it really hard for me to read this thread, constant double-takes. How impish! How quirky! Maybe he's...just the ILXor I never realized I was looking for.

'Perks of Being a Wallflower' has the wondertwin power of both MPD Girl and Guy, w/ bonus points for Emma Watson actually wearing a pixie cut

How do Edward Cullen & Christian Grey fit into this, if at all?

can i just say that i think louis ck and parker posey pretty successfully turned this trope on it's ear and made it into something at once fairly unlikely yet believable? + awesome? [SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER] i mean she's just giving the shlubby nice guy one last chance before.... i dunno, it all makes sense. for once. plus, not the ending to the arc i was expecting.

seeking a friend for the end of the world tho - i liked the movie fine, but steve caroll? really? WHY HIM?
