I Watched The Uglies (2024) & It Melted My Brain 

literally me too

Me toooo

no exactly

literally same, I couldn’t even finish the movie and was like I NEED Carley to cover this

As soon as I watched the movie I was like “I hope that Carley does a video”😂

Ive gone back to this comment like five times during this video, i dont know what short of string you pulled in my brain but i cant stop thinking about it

THANK YOU 😭 I watched this movie with my brother and when the assembly came on I just kinda turned to him and said '...do they do this EVERY day?'

What did they fucking do to Scott Westerfeld's normal ass teen dystopia 😭😭😭😭 they fucking Diverged it for no reason!!!!

@@Lolo50000 THAT WAS LITERALLY ME

There's a book kind of like that called 'the rest of us just live here' by patrick ness. It's about this kind of perks of being a wallflowery friend group just trying to enjoy their last year of highschool and going through real world problems (mental health issues, break-ups, parents divorce, career choices,...) and every chapter has one paragraph about what the 'indie kids' i.e. the usual main characters named things like finn or sage are doing to save the world (like the school explodes and there's wars between gods and stuff).

It's my real life

David (Keith Powers) is also 32 😭 why are both of the love interests twice the ages of their characters

Ngl the makeup artists did a really good job at making Keith Powers look 18

nah cuz I read this book in middle school and this was my main takeaway too😭

right?? they made the lesions sound sooo bad but honestly if I could be stupid hot and unaware of the world I would 🤷🏻‍♀️

GIRL give me the brain lesions I don't want to think anything ✨️

so cool for everyone in this thread to reveal that they don’t care if other people are suffering if they don’t have to think about :)!

Essentially considering becoming pretty isn’t exclusive or a privilege, literally everyone gets to be pretty if they just make it to sixteen. Sure they aren’t nice to uglies but that will eventually stop. If the price of being pretty was really bad or only certain people could become pretty it would be much more compelling. They should have portrayed the world as a utopia and then a twist proves it to be a dystopia but nope💀

go to bed

Ohhhh interesting! I liked Extras the best tbh, I still sometimes work on a script version of it bc the themes 🤌✨️

@@hockeygrrlmuse Imposters shows us what the world ended up doing with 10 whole years post mind-rain. You see what methods the cities end up using to govern themselves, the technologies that people developed, and the horrific consequences that some of this freedom came with. In the words of Dr Cable, freedom has a way of destroying things. 110% think you’d enjoy the read if you liked Extras!

Real I got those Asian eyes, do I now have no eyes? 😭

And I think it came first but I'm not disagreeing!

Pretty sure Uglies pre-dates Divergent 😂

Exactly like how do you take a perfectly normal YA book series that came out BEFORE Divergent and then fucking Diverge it????????

​@@kendra_katIt actually predates the YA Dystopia genre as a whole, with the first book being released in 2005, to 2008's Hunger Games.

@@yeah5895the hunger games didn’t start the ya dystopia genre. it’s existed for a while but I think more ppl would say The Giver really popularized it, and that was published in the 90s I think

Yeah it’s definitely a lumber district (7?) name

Randomly burst it to my babyfaced coworkers lol

I need her to review the series

Oh. Um. That's not...

That's

It's a fetish 🫣 that image is literally fetish art

@@hockeygrrlmuse whether or not it's fettish art it's also a meme that had a chokehold on 2010s tumblr, the two are not mutually exclusive

@@matte5705 fair enough I suppose

The what now?

That’s the second book so they could feel “bubbly”
