I get mixed signals from her in the start of the movie, but the way she reacted to him calling her Freaky Nikki makes it seem like he doesn’t like him. He said it autistically, but still

>>221609471
So she didn't like him romantically? The video makes it seem like she did and he didn't want to say it.

The movie drops a million hints that she wasn't into him but there are still hundreds of /tv/ threads about how she secretly wanted him and all Bear had to do was say "yeah I like you" and everything would've been fine. Just goes to show how this place doesn't understand women at all despite claiming to.

it's crazy how many incels think that this was her flirting with him because she liked him. IDGAF what the director says he sounds like a simping incel himself, IRL a woman who does this is trying to get it over with so they can move on.
>>221609870
she's a literal semen demon. She rapes him for his semen and then somehow feminists say he raped her even though she probably would have killed him if he said no.

>>221609870

>>221610357
I call it failed/temporarily embarrassed chad syndrome. They'd rather believe they had a shot with every girl they liked and just blew it rather than accept there was nothing there.
>>
>>221610451
honestly Bear probably did have a shot years ago when he first met her. But by the time the OP happened it was too late. He was tall and attractive enough, so all women care about is him being a manly alpha who takes charge (no matter how much feminists claim women don't want that, it's true).
So if he asked her out like a week after meeting her, he probably would have succeeded. But the movie is like at least a couple years later. By that point, she already decided he wasn't a real man, he didn't have enough of the toxic masculinity that all women want. She had permanently written him off as a pussy and it was too late to change it. Him asking her out would have still been the right move just so he could get rejected and learn to not be a pussy next time.

This! Hahaha women love men who get to know her first, women hate men who move quickly. Every woman I know is just like "Gosh I wish that guy would take 2 years getting to know me and fall in love with my personality instead of just treating me like meat and fucking the shit out of me as soon as we meet!"
This is definitely how women think which is why so many women refuse to date men who make a move quickly and will only date a man who spent 2 years getting to know her first!

lets just say she likes him back for the sake of it

Her hooking up multiple times with Ian sooner or later would spread out, there will be a shift in power dynamics in the group and those who lost their ranking would have revealed just to be spiteful.Ian 100% would have brought this because of his ego and even spread rumors, or art chick because she is jealous of their relationship just like it happened in the movie.

Bear would probably accept this as the cuck he is but Nikki couldn't live with this because her good samaritan cope, they stop hanging out together because of awkwardness even effecting work.

Bear should have hooked up with art chick, just to mess with Nikki, cut contact slowly with Nikki to cut of the emotional support he has been given her. Enjoy the time with art girl, reflect if he is content , if not start looking for someone else.

Why does this movie filter so many retards? She does NOT like Bear, she was fucking Ian and they both told Bear that Nikki only considered him a friend
>>
>>221614816
Ian was jealous of all the attention Bear was getting from Nikki which is why he made the friendzone comment to try to split them up. It was shown he was jealous during the montage when he kept giving them weird looks when all they were doing was being a normal lovey dovery couple, its also shown that Ian is just jealous when Sarah said Ian thinks Nikkis only doing this to get back at him, which is delusionally ignoring that Nikki is now truly obsessed with Bear and doesnt care about Ian. And Sarah wanted Bear for herself which is why she also said stuff that she thought would tear Sarah and Bear apart.
>>
>>221614937
This is a stretch. Both Ian and Sarah corroborated that Ian was fucking Nikki, it’s not something they made up. They could’ve made up the idea that Nikki secretly considered Bear a friend only on the same day he made the wish, but again, they both claimed this happened. It’s unlikely they would decide to spread 2 lies for selfish reasons especially when they were proven correct on the fact that Nikki lied about her father having cancer.

It’s far more likely that Nikki actually was just a basic whore unfit for a relationship.
>>
>>221610748
Kek. But seriously he could have used a relationship break up, either on his or her part, to reset the clock and immediately make a move. I haven't watched the movie so IDK if there was a suitable 'trigger' to escalate.

My first ex gf dumped me 2 years ago.
I got over it.
She texted me a couple times to stay in touch.
I genuinely don't mind staying in touch with her because we stayed 2 years and I spent a lot of time with her family.
I had moved on so I was comfortable talking to her from time to time and being semi-friends.
I hadn't messaged her in a month.
Today I uploaded pics of me and my new gf to social media and 4 hours later she sent me a message saying she doesn't see us ever being friends so she was unadding me.

no, of course women generally prefer men taking the first step, but just doing that and being tall and handsome isn't enough believe it or not, as a matter of fact women are less superficial than men when it comes to physical attractiveness, at least the idea of male beauty that most straight guys have. that's the incel bullshit part of your post. if you want more tips just tell me, but I know you'll just strawman me because you can't handle the truth
>>
>>221615284
I feel bad because the only reason I uploaded the pics was so I could make my OTHER ex gf jealous, as my new gf mögs both of them. Basically I went from dating a 3/10 to a 5/10 to a 7/10, at least in my opinion. But I still want the 5/10 back for some reason. Both my exes are still single afaik but the 5/10 ex didn't even reply when I drunk texted her some innocuous bullshit s few weeks ago. Which was beta af but it wasnt like "I miss you" or anything really gay like that.
>>
>>221609471
How did that wish get twisted into BPD obsession, he just wished for being loved. Is this just a possession or monkey's paw scenario?
>>
>>221615510
Incel shit is an online-only phenomenon. Women IRL care way less about appearance than men
>>
>>221615544
The movie implies that the wish itself is fine and it was Bear's fault for how he worded it
>>
>>221615544
The wish went bad for 2 reasons
>1. Bear’s wish was made out of desperation. It was mumbled under his breath. He truly did want Nikki to love him more than anything but that’s an inherently selfish idea that will have crazy consequences, it was never meant to be taken literally
>2. Nikki never liked Bear romantically. Which means the wish has to possess Nikki and make her love him against her will, which the real Nikki fights throughout the movie. You can even see the wish control the demon Nikki into acting a certain way when it starts to have too much agency like yelling at Bear or threatening him — according to the wish this isn’t supposed to happen
>>
>>221615544
it makes little sense considering his buddy got his billion dollars with no trick involved. i read a post in another thread with the only theory that somewhat makes the movie make sense, it was something like the one wish willow uses the wisher's definition of whatever he wishes for. his buddy just wanted a set amount of money so there was no trickery, but bear apparently was only loved by his cat so that was love for him and that made nikki act like a crazy kitty
>>
>>221615544
It’s not even BDP obsession. Nikki is just fucking insane in a not-romantic way. It’s the most peculiar aspect of the movie.

The issue is that women are absolutely fucking horrible at signaling that.
>>
>>221615103
If you take absolutely every line of dialogue at face value then Bear only likes Nikki as a friend too. Because when she asked him did he like her, he said he liked her as a friend. Except we know that's not true. Bear chickened out of admitting his true feelings and instead chose to lie. So isn't it entirely possible that Nikki chose not to tell the truth to Sarah about her liking Bear? Nikki said herself when she likes someone nobody could tell. And also she was talking to a girl who was making it abundantly clear she liked Bear. I'm not saying Nikki 100% liked Bear but it is possible. You can easily make the argument that either is true.
>>
>>221618242
We see very little of Nikki before she gets brainwashed. But from what we see of her, she sees Bear as a friend, she suspects that he has feelings for her and she wanted him to be open about it so they could clear things up between them.

Whether that means she wanted to give him a chance or tell him she's not interested in a relationship with him is left ambiguous, we obviously don't know. But the point is, when she went and asked him to be open with her, he refused it. Because he prefers being in love with her with no chance of reciprocation to the possibility of explicit rejection. It's the logic of a person who's clearly sick and only getting worse but refuses to see a doctor because he's scared of the diagnosis.
>>

Women like Nikki enjoy being charming and flirty with all men because they thrive on the attention and the feeling that they could have any of those men if they wanted to

This is correct. The way they act when they want you and the way they act when they're being nice are nearly indistinguishable, unless they start throwing some innuendo into it.

Unfortunately, this movie hit way too close to home, at least up until the one wish willow part.

I used to be the timid guy hopelessly in love with a girl who was also one of my closest friends, and I couldn't bring myself to tell her how I felt. I also had a friend who was hooking up with her behind my back even though he knew I liked her, and he'd give me terrible advice just to sabotage me.
The horror parts of this movie didn't do much for me compared to the hell Bear was going through before he broke the willow, because I've been there.

So here's my take: Bear and Nikki were never meant to be together. Even if she'd given him a chance if he'd confessed his feelings on this scene, their relationship would've eventually fallen apart, and they would've ended up miserable and resenting each other.

Why? Because in relationships with that kind of dynamic, at some point there's usually a brief window where the guy can actually make a move, flirt with her, let her know he's interested, and she'll be receptive. Maybe she already liked him a little, or maybe she was open to developing feelings because she admired him, and that could've turned into something more if he'd actually gone for it.
But he let that window close out of fear. Like he says at the beginning of the movie: "Don't tell her. She's too good. You'll lose her."
Meanwhile, she kept living her life. She met other guys, had other experiences, and eventually realized that whatever Bear had to offer just wasn't what she wanted anymore.

He'd already lost her long before the movie even started. It was already over. There was nothing he could've done by that point.
The only scenario I can realistically see working is if he'd actually started dating Sarah. Nikki might've gotten jealous of losing her place as the most important woman in his life and started seeing him differently. That's a real thing that happens sometimes.

But Bear was too much of an pussy to ever look to his left.
>>
>>221618409
It is a separate entity. The real nikki tells Bear “she’s asleep”
>>
>>221609471
As a man, you need to be strong, capable, interesting with a good sense of humour but not a silly personality.
Looks are like the last in importance by the way

Once a girl falls in love with you, she truly in her head and heart considers your face to be the most beautiful she ever saw and suddenly no-one else is attractive to her anymore
>>
>>221609534
She was prepping her snatch, don't you know anything
>>
>>221615726
>Oh god you texted something gayer than "I miss you."
I texted her telling her I found the pins she was collecting that she gave me her extras of, and asked if she ever finished collecting them. So it sounded like I found something that reminded me of her, not that I'd been trying to work up the nerve to text her for months.

Maybe "what's up" would've been better but she wouldn't have replied either way. It's fine cause I'm fucking hot Chinese pussy right now so objectively no loss.

I was messed up when I watched it but liked the film a lot. One question, did his friend ask for a billion dollars and it started raining money in their house?

What happened there did he drown in money and suffocate? Did that even happen? Also, anyone else think the chick looks like Sophia Bush?!
>>
>>221614720
that's a good question
>>
>>221609642
if this was to be the friendzone reveal and they were slightly older this could probably be something they could work through since they have the same group of friends and having crushes on everyone is really fucking normal but, alas, they are children
>>
>yeah, you are actually great and I have feelings for you, if you want to go on a date we can, no pressure, if not I will start looking for other women, I'm an adult not a teenage boy with a crush, we can continue the vibe we have now
there, done

the fact he is talking to girls and they aren't instantly disgusted by him and trying to ostracize him means he was never an "incel" anyway
>>
>>221622195
yuppers.
Then he went to Bear's place and immediately copped a bullet to the head from Nikki
>>
>>221622195
That was the dumbest part of the movie. Ian gets a billion dollars, then we abruptly cut to Bear returning to his home only for Ian to come a few minutes later yelling “Bear I got a billion dollars!” As if we haven’t already seen that part. It’s like they just needed a reason for Ian to be killed so he randomly shows up at Bear’s house and Nikki randomly has a gun for no reason
>>
>>221622359
>>221622421
Thx. Yeah sounds like everything happened fast at the end there I'll have to rewatch the ending I guess.

I seem to remember that before his friend made his wish the plan was to use the wish to get Nikki back to normal. His buddy called an audible didn't he? Dude was kind of a jerk. He was fucking Nikki too.
>>
>>221618693

>>221609737
>I WISH NIKKI WAS MY SEXDOLL I CAN RAPE AND CREAMPIE WITHOUT ANY CONSEQUENCES
This would have actually worked, right?

I wonder how much talk about this movie was intentionally because of the movie offering different interpretations or if it’s just a complete accident. I guess we’ll find out with Barker’s next movie and see if it’s nearly as complex
>>
>>221609810
>and all Bear had to do was say "yeah I like you" and everything would've been fine.
Isn't that the narrative that the foyim are going with? Bear is evil because instead of confessing his feelings to someone that was interested in him, he decides to use a wish to control her.
>>
The more little snippets of this movie I read on here the more I realize the movie is fucking stupid. The only reason people are talking about it is because there are no good movies out and the main girls physical work in the movie.
>>
>>221622641
Which is a stupid interpretation cause he didn't know the wish would work and is freaked out by her behaviour even in the beginning, thinking that she's going through a psychotic breakdown
>>
>>221622611
>the movie offering different interpretations
there's no such thing. It's actually a very straightforward movie that some people misinterpret because it mocks them and they don't want to feel like that
>>
>>221622641
Their interpretation is fucking stupid. Bear had no idea the wish would work. All 3 wishes in the movie are used in moments of frustration and 2 of them were from people who didn’t believe in it. Bear never wanted to “control” Nikki. It’s only after he calls the company and learns Nikki is possessed that he’s truly taking advantage of the situation and keeping Nikki as a prisoner. So yes Bear is an awful person but the point is that he didn’t start off as one, the wish awakened latent evils he had inside of him. Women are seeing him as the villain from the very start just because they’re disgusted by cowardly men on principle
>>
>>221618314
>But the point is, when she went and asked him to be open with her, he refused it. Because he prefers being in love with her with no chance of reciprocation to the possibility of explicit rejection.
This, Nikki rejecting Bear would have been a blessing in disguise. Everything says they're wrong for each other. But Bear wants to stay obsessed with her and shit spirals out of control because of it.

Nah your interpretation is also stupid, even after the "Is being with me that bad" speech he still tries to undo the wish and even tries to kill himself to end it even if he tried to pussy out of it

>>
>>221615544
It’s obviously a monkey’s paw situation, I don’t know how much more obvious they could make it for retards. Even the friend who gets a billion dollars gets killed almost immediately after. It’s a freaking horror movie, of course wish granting will always go wrong, it’s not about wording or intention, the magic is evil and tries to find anyway possible to mess your life up following an initial period where it makes you think you got what you wanted. Nothing about bear’s wish implied he wanted her possessed by a demon, nothing about his friend’s wish implied he wanted a short life in exchange for the money. It’s like making a financial deal with a jew, you will always come out losing

I don't understand why the wish made a completely seperate entity and the real nikki was like trapped in her body or something. He very clearly wished for nikki freeman to love him, but she didn't.

As opposed to a magic vortex appearing out of thin air and spawning a billion dollars in US currency, presumably in stacks of $20 bills?
>>
>>221622954
He tries to undo the wish very slowly. It takes him a while to even decide upon it, initially wanting to just alter the wish instead of reversing it entirely. During that time he's well aware Nikki is trapped in her body screaming in agony all day and he still bargains with himself that the relationship can be remedied
>>
>>221622641
>he decides to use a wish to control her.
No one in their right mind would actually think that would work and any popcorn munching normie retard that thinks this only does so because it's a movie where things like that are possible. It's akin to an actual autism test where they show someone putting a ball in a box, then bringing someone else into the room. The autist doesn't understand how the new person doesn't know where the ball is.

>Barker’s next movie
I genuinely don't think he gets enough credit for how well written this film is (especially when compared to something like Weapons).
If he's written his next film too, I'd be very surprised if it wasn't very good.

>>221609810
True. He was obviously deeply in the friend zone.

He was. Bear is the slow kid of the group.

If Nikki liked Bear, she had nothing to lose from seducing him. She was planning to bounce anyway.

kek same cba to actually download and watch this zoomer slop
>>
>>221623255
I think it was more well engineered in construction, almost cynically so ala exploitation of old, than necessarily displaying the qualities of strong craft writing (the opposite at times) that you could bet on in the future, but premises, hooks and ambiguity get you pretty far in genre like horror. the adept comedy helps too
>>
>>221623520
Again, we're putting too much weight in what the film doesn't explicitly say or show. But yeah I think Nikki was going to throw him a pity fuck as a goodbye present and he botched it.

Sluts are only good for one thing and I'm ready for a gender swapped sequel.
>>
>>221620608
she's well proportioned despite her dwarf status, pretty face and shapely breasts. Dunno what more you need. If you're into short girls that aren't fat this is pretty good.

After /tv/ was exposed for wanting to fuck Bella Ramsey, we all voted and asked them to leave. They came back to /tv/ with a trans army. We are at war whether you anons want to accept it or not.

Him not owning that he liked her made her hesitant to give him a chance, I've been best friends with an 9/10 girl since high school and have seen this play out many times with guys she would have dated once or twice to see what they were worth but forgot about since they never made a move or did it in a half-assed way where they could pass it off as a joke or mistake if they felt it wasn't going well. It's completely possible for ''friend-zoned'' guys to make a move but they can't be chickenshit about it, I've seen it happen.

If I were Bear I would have given up on Nikki once I learned that Ian had been fucking her for years, she wasn't pretty or pleasant enough to put my other relationships at risk for. But Bear was infatuated with Nikki and not just normal interested, he was fucked from the get-go most guys have gone through this at least once in their life
>>
>>221623032
That's a reasonable position but not one shared by the director of the movie. He thinks Bear is evil for making the wish in the first place.

Likely true. They just love white women doesn't matter what they look like.

Last time I bring it up but nobody thought Nikki looked exactly like picrel? Maybe I need glasses.

Also art chick would never have fucked Ian.

>>221623289
I don't think being deep is the sign of good writing.
A story that makes sense, has consistent characters, and a compelling narrative is far more important.
There are some good monologues in there. But really, at no point did the characters feel like they were doing stupid things just so that the story could happen. Their actions felt quite natural. And they all felt like real people with individual personalities and motivations.
That's surprisingly very rare

A billion is a lot of money, but it's really only about a pallet's worth of 20s. it would be a bitch to pick up if it rained
>>
>>221625349
Standard wooden pallets (48" x 40") are built to hold .Standard limit: 4,600 lbs (2,087 kg).Safe shipping weight: 2,500 lbs (1,133 kg).Static weight (sitting still): 6,000+ lbs (2,721+ kg).Dynamic weight (being moved): 2,500 to 3,000 lbs.

And 1 billion dollars in 20s would weigh 110231 lbs. Way too heavy for a pallet.
>>
>>221623813
Is the director the writer too? Idk, but anyhow those aren’t mutually exclusive imo. Bear can be evil and it’s a monkey’s paw device

did you ever considered that we talk about this movie because we all relate to Bear at some extent?
>>
>>221609471
nikki would have given bear a chance. if he'd gotten tipsy at the bar and said "hey how about you and me go eat at xyz tomorrow" with any amount of charisma she'd thought "wow where is this energy coming from?" and said yes. she was literally crying in the car "WOW I WISH I HAD SOMEONE WHO LOVED ME FOR REAL IM DEPRESSED". i had a oneitis that clearly liked me for a good while but i was always too pussy to ask the bitch out and she moved on. you faggots forget that both the waitress and sarah liked bear. Ian wouldnt have cockblocked so much if he wasnt worried bear had a chance
>>
>>221625458
I'm speaking volume, not the weight for a pallet. and it's raining from the ceiling, it's not falling 1 lump

I can kind of see why everyone is certain he was a rapist, it's not a testament to the movies quality though. If they wanted to make him a rapist make the gift something actually rape-y, like a demonic Spanish fly or something, that would have been much more clear. There is one moment where, when speaking with Sarah, he mentions that he has sleeping pills in his pocket, and paired with why he brought up that he had them, the subtext is pointing to him maybe spiking people's drinks on occasions. The problem is the rest of his character is completely discordant with that. Generally people who spike people's drinks are charming sociopaths, not weird losers, and they certainly wouldn't have a problem with getting rid of a demonically possessed girl that is fucking with their method. Ideally you give more context which reinforces this characterization too, rather than just weird moments that can be read one way or another. As it stands he is just a loser who broke a novelty toy and then dated a BPD chick, and the majority consensus on this film is fucking retarded.

>>221623812
Women are allowed to show half assed interest that can be dismissed as not serious if it doesn't go there way for guys they like but guys can't for girls they like
I mean I understand why but it's very easy for an inexperienced guy to feel bitter about it
>>
>>221623812
getting strung along by a girl who *might* show you the time of day for one date before she gets bored of you (because she wasn't actually into you from the start like she would've been if she thought you were chad) is not really the own on "pathetic incels" you think it is

If you're tall, you don't even need to look decent. The lankiest motherfuckers I know have hot gfs somehow
>>
>>221628275
that's true too, being tall is by far the biggest cheatcode. but just being tall will only get you interest from girls. being tall and handsome will genuinely have them throwing themselves at you
>>
>>221624451
er what? When It Follows came out it was heralded as the first fresh concept produced by the horror genre in decades, it was everywhere and one of the rare horror movies that non-fans watched and took seriously just like Obsession.
>>
>>221628372
Or it can have the adverse effect. Make them feel like they don't have a chance. And if you're a tall handsome beta, shits a stalemate.
>>
>>221628818
dude trust me lol, the kind of girl you want to either have a casual fling with or something a bit more serious is not the kind of girl that's gonna get intimidated because you're tall and good looking. she's the kind of girl that EXPECTS you to want her because you're tall and good looking

Dynamics of dating are fascinating to everyone of all generations. Always have been. But they might appeal to gen Z more since they're statistically the sexless generation.

Why did she brush her hair back like that?
>>
>>221627926
kek, we've known each other since kindergarten it would be like fucking your sister. Anyways, any idiot knows that hanging out with a hot girl means access to all her friends, I've only ever been single two months tops in my life thanks to her. You're stuck in an incel worldview and probably can't deviate from seeing any guy not fucking a girl he hangs out with as an orbiter. I'm not trying to ''own'' anyone lmao, notice I never dunked on anyone and you projected that out of self-hate.
>>221627401
What are you talking about? Guys can show interest in girls without being taken seriously, they do it all the time it's called flirting. There are plenty of heart-broken girls out there who thought so-and-so had feelings for them when they were really just having fun, usually work or school stuff. Developing an obsessive crush over someone you barely truly know was Bear's problem, not Nikki's.
>>221627958
This isn't the 90s dude, plenty of girls ask the guy out or avoid beating aroudn the bush and just ask about this stuff plainly.

the only way you've never run into a BPDemon before is if you've never interacted with women

relating to Bear means you're obsessing over a single woman when there are plenty of fish in the sea
>>221629618
how so. The statement I responded to didn't exactly make much of an apparent point in the first place

>>221623897
He heard her screaming in agony on the phone. You can't argue that he didn't know.
>>
>>221627150

Nah, i talk about it because i think she's hot. Simple as.
>>
I'm actually in the middle of watching it now and the restaurant freak out just happened and there's an hour left and man.....

the pacing is just off. This >>221609471
line is actually really weird to come out of nowhere after he called her that thing she doesn't like. Then Bear breaks the thing right after at the 20 minute mark and what little we see of real Nikki isn't enough to suggest whether she liked him or not. And now Ian calls and she flips out and there's still an hour left. Just too much happening too fast so far.

Also, people were acting like he stuck it up her butt right after he broke it. They sleep in bed together with no sex, he's led to believe she was grieving AND on drugs, and she flat out says she knows he likes her and admits she likes him too. Obviously it's a selfish wish, but he's very clearly holding back and unsure if it worked and had no strong reason to believe it did until later. Even the blue hairs on twitter screech about how she actually did like him. (Granted this was his chance to just say yes when she asks at the window and he blew it, but still.)

Also also, it's patently obvious the wish didn't make Nikki love him and instead made some separate entity take control of her body with the express purpose of loving him. I mean, even without the random "What the fuck" moments from real Nikki, the entity has her knowledge and memories but is instantly asking questions like a tourist after taking over.

Barker said there's no monkey paw catch to the willow but that's just not true. He's created a complicated, albeit interesting, resolution to the wish.

The love square is an interesting angle too. Will report back when it's over.
>>
>>221629906
>Then Bear breaks the thing right after at the 20 minute mark and what little we see of real Nikki isn't enough to suggest whether she liked him or not.
That is the point. The movie makes you question the intentions of all the characters and the way the wish works. That's what makes it successful. If it was just a straightforward "she becomes a crazy bitch" story then it would be lame.
>>
>>221628879
Maybe if they're not waiting for you to make the first move.
