Do the bullies from his childhood get their comeuppances?


If they don't, then what the actual fuck!? Hollywood needs to stop pulling this "Karma Houdini" bullshit! Hopefully, the bastards got what was coming to them. When bullies beat up a kid and they aren't punished in any way for it, then that's just very bad writing and it should not be allowed.

no. it sets up for the ending though.

That's fucking bullshit! Well, this is another movie I'm going to avoid! It should be required by law that bullies either get their comeuppances or reform! If you make them Karma Houdinis, that should be illegal and banned from writing!

reply

Except in real life it doesn't always go that way. Why should it in movies?

reply

Karma exists and those who do bad deeds will be punished. Don't pretend like this shit doesn't exist.

reply

Any proof on that?

reply

Reincarnation is real. There's no proof but there's evidence.

Besides, if stupid ass cancel culture is a thing then it must be required in fiction that bullies don't get off, Scott free! That's just as bad as acquitting pedophiles. *Cough* Victor Salva *Cough*

reply

How does reincarnation (that hasn't been proven) show that karma exists?

I don't see how one not proven thing helps the case for something else that's not proven.

reply

There's evidence out there, Google it.

reply

Evidence is not proof. The burden of proof isn't on me anyway when you're the one trying to convince me these things are real.

reply

You won't know until you die. We all won't know that, until the afterlife.

reply

Even then you probably won't know. If I was reincarnated to this lifer from a previous one, I know nothing of my previous life.

reply

I just hope I can be reincarnated into the past and be sparred the horrifying future that awaits us!

reply

even if you're right and karma exists, what makes you think that movies should be forced to reflect reality? ever heard of sci-fi? should they all be banned too?

reply

henry is told to go and get them, but they don't show it. so i guess it happens offscreen.
