Megan annoyed the the living hell out of me


Every time she ate with her mouth open, i just wanted to scream. One of my biggest pet peeves is people eating loudly with their mouths opened. and every time I saw her reach for some food, I cringed.

"Hear me now! This place is cursed, damned, and yes your master is the devil!"

reply

It made her cuter.

She was really groovy.

I noticed the eating with her mouth open, but it didn't really bother me. I jumped and gasped when she died, I was not expecting it. she was mid-sentence.

Same here. I expected her to die, but not so early on. It comes out of nowhere and ends up violently (and quickly).

reply

In that case I'm glad you were and are annoyed.

reply

I really like Greta Gerwig; she's so appealing. But I thought the character was kind of off-putting, yeah.

Then I listened to the commentary and they talked about how they did that stuff on purpose to make the character annoying! I love that! XD

reply

You shouldn't have to listen to director commentary to realize that characters are sometimes off-putting or outright unlikable on purpose. That's real life, right?

Thank you. I'm glad you get offended about an opinion of an actress' you'll never be close to. It's quite entertaining.

Spoken like a true b!tch.

reply

Yes, I agree. The people who get bent out of shape over a celebrity is pathetic. I think you directed that toward the wrong person. Only people who get bent out of shape over an opinion of a movie character and insult someone over it are the true, "b!tches" as you so eloquently put it.

Thank you. Eloquence is my speciality.

reply

I wanted her as my friend.to bad she got her face blown out

"Everyone has an opinion....and then you die."

reply

wtf are you talking about? She only ate one time, a short scene in the beginning of the movie, and there was nothing that odd about the way she was eating. She was supposed to be kind of a tomboy, so she was supposed to appear a bit sloppy, and un-ladylike in her manners. The only other time she actually "eats" anything is when she puts a piece of hard candy in her mouth, which she spits out because it tastes bad. It amazes me the way people pick apart movies these days.

reply

Calm down, oversensitive fanboy/girl. How was I picking the movie apart again? All I said was her eating annoyed me. I never ONCE said anything derogatory about the movie itself.

I don't care what the intention of the character is. If it annoys me, then it annoys me. Just like your stupid whining and complaining about a trivial opinion. It amazes me how easily upset idiots like you get over something like this.

Grow up.

"Hear me now! This place is cursed, damned, and yes your master is the devil!"

reply

No I agree with you; you are a genious in fact! you know i feel the same way about "The Shawshank Redemption." Good movie, but about 1 hour and 17 minutes in, they show someone clearing their throat and looking to the left. OMG, it just drove me nuts! and then not 10 minutes later i swear i could hear someone
else clearing their throat! Can you believe it? It TOTALLY ruined the movie for me. It actually would have been ok if the third guy from the right was wearing a black shirt instead of a brown shirt though. But he wasn't. Yeah, these things are really important. You and i are lucky to have such a critical eye when it comes to film. everyone else is just stupid. I mean really; how DARE that girl "chew" her food in "House of the Devil??" On second thought, it did ruin the movie! OMG! youre so smart!

"IMdB; where 14 year olds can act like jaded 40 year old critics...'

reply

Instead it didn't even ruin the movie for me. Your fanrage is clouding your logic. You're making up stuff that I never even said in the first place. You really are an idiot.

Your logic is as follows....

Person thought one thing in the movie was annoying. It means they automatically hate it. TIME TO RAGE!!!!

"Hear me now! This place is cursed, damned, and yes your master is the devil!"

reply

Actually, wasn't it YOU that started the whole thread about the girl chewing her food? I re-read YOUR comment; there is a lot of "rage" there as well. I hope you can get your anger issues under control. Because if you don't you might go postal and grab a knife the next time you are in a restaurant and see someone chewing food..and we wouldn't want that to happen. Ever consider trying Prozac? Or anger management classes?

"IMdB; where 14 year olds can act like jaded 40 year old critics...'

reply

LOL, there isn't any rage at all, just me stating my opinion. You're getting really ridiculous with these, "i know you are but what am I" comments. How did you come up with the ridiculous conclusion that I'm going to stab someone because of their eating habits? You are very strange and you are PROJECTING yourself onto me.

You really are grasping at straws over a no name actress. Are you so obsessed with her that you have to say to someone that they are going to kill someone over the way they eat? Are you really that pathetic? I bet off the internet when you're watching a movie with someone and they nitpick one minor annoyance about an actor or actress, that you act like a lunatic if it's someone you're obsessed with. You strike me as the kind of person who throws a 10 year old hissy fit when someones opinion differs from yours....


You are a psycho with your ridiculous assessments and you are just too pathetic and stupid to continue talking to. Stop taking movies so seriously you poor excuse for a human being. Obsessive jerk. Go j off to her.

GOOD GOSHEROONY; WE GOTS A LOONY! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!

"IMdB; where 14 year olds can act like jaded 40 year old critics...'

reply

Well...I just read this whole thread and am chuckling...because I absolutely DESPISED the fact that the friend spent 90% of her screen time chewing loudly with her mouth open, too. It made me want to vomit. And because of that, I wasn't sad when she was killed. How's that for an extreme reaction to some noisy chewing?

Of course, I admit that I have a sensory processing issue that makes me (extremely) emotionally reactive to the sounds of people chewing. It's like nails on a blackboard to me. Every time a potato chip commercial comes on tv I dive for the remote, because the sound of someone "crunching" into those chips with such relish fills me with rage. But it's just a weird neuron in my brain that somehow connects the sound of loud chewing with anger for me.

Ironically, I can be a noisy eater myself if I'm not mindful of my own manners.

reply

And I didn't even notice her eating at all. I do find Greta Gerwig's boobs very annoying because I can't quit staring at them and it fills me with rage. . .

But, seriously, her character was obviously meant to be annoying, but she's also kind of quirky and likeable. That's different than with the designated victims of most horror movies who I always want to kill long before the villain gets around to it. . .

reply

Yes! Watching her eat made me gag. When she sucked her fingers and left half-chewed bits of pizza on them was even worse. Utterly revolting.
