Hi BetterMostians :)
Let me first say thank you for the wide participation on the Confetti Quiz last week. We managed 30 Questions and a few more answers, a discussion about jackalope/lamb heads which led to a reactivation of another Aguirre thread and we learned something about American versus European trucks! Not bad for one week :D!
The Confetti Quiz doesn't have to end today, play as long as you have fun with it.
Another point before we get to this week's topic: I wanted to encourage you once more to suggest topics for the TOTW. Also, if you have a question that could be combined with a poll, give it to me! Polls can be launched in every forum, not only the Polling Place (thematically fitting to the respective forum of course).
This week, I used „falling in love“, although it's not exactly that, for lack of a better expression. It's obvious we care a lot about those fictional characters (heck we're still here, two+ years in). We feel for them, we (at least partly) identify with them.
Did it happen after your first viewing? Or after multiple viewings? Or did it take the discussions on the different boards, reading the SS, or whatever brought you more insight to the characters?
And how about the movie itself? Do you think it would still be on your mind if it weren't for the forum?
