Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Okay after only getting two hours of sleep last night, what did I today to fix my sleeping pattern? You guessed it, go to the movies/mall and watch Thor, Love and Thunder.

They start off where they left off in End Game. They bring out the usual elements that makes these marvel movies pretty good. It's what you'd expect, tons of CGI work, Plenty of cool action and witty humor.

If you're not into the feminist part of it such as Natalie Portman getting Thor's super powers that's one draw back for you. But the other aspects of this movie make up for it.

Last but not least, I'd have to say Christian Bale's performance as an antagonist was great in this flick. He looked like he did his daily preparation and lost some pounds in this one.

My suggestion- if you're a dad or a big brother or uncle, take your kids out to watch this one. I give this film an A.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I saw someone trying to sell the movie because of the gay stuff they managed to stuff into it. Namely, Korg's race is all male so he has two daddies (or something like that), Valkyrie is lesbian or bisexual (I forget which, shows how much I care), and then there are all the rainbow exhaust systems (which are actually a reference to Bifrost, the rainbow bridge. Wow, even the name "Bi" frost. Apparently the Norse foresaw Pride month).

Watched about 30 minutes of it before getting disgusted with the low quality level and watched another movie. Constantly interrupted plot by cgi, humor, and nonsense. Just the usual recent sequel that doesn’t come anywhere close to it’s predecessors on storyline, production quality, and content.

I tought it was passable but its probably my least favorite Thor movie. My favorite Thor movies are Ragnarok and Infinity War
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Yeah, I will probably wait until it hits Disney plus. Dr Strange Multiverse was dropped and even that sounds more interesting, plus I have to see the latest Spiderman. I wan to rewatch Black Widow as it had some awesome CGI with the floating red room. As Disney plua has dropped.other movies as well that were recentlt out, I am backlogged (Death On the Nile, Kingsman 2022, Nighmare Alley, etc...). New movies coming out are so so since the good oned are on streaming...except Top Gun Maverick.

I have zero interest in watching this.

Even people I work with who are the type who will like all marvel and star wars movies without any kind of critical thinking thought that it was really stupid.

That's a huge no for me. It was trending on Twitter today how dude ate vegan in preparation for kissing her.

Bunch of woke bs

The bi- in bisexual is a Latin prefix, basically meaning two. The bi in Bifrost comes from either bil or bifa in Old Norse and doesn't refer to the number two at all. So the "connection" here is entirely coincidental.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

The entire MCU gradually went straight to sh!t after the peak of Endgame.

I was just making a joke, but it's always nice to get a lesson in Old Norse.

Not a bad movie at all, I saw it and I was a fan. The Guns and Roses theme went well with it and the ending set up nicely for what is to come in the Marvel Universe. I am excited for Secret Wars.
